Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of horizontal bubble processing and manufacturing, and in particular to an integrated machine for dispensing steel balls into horizontal bubbles and marking lines. Background Technology

[0002] Levels are used in construction, mechanical installation, woodworking, and other fields for measuring levelness and perpendicularity. They consist of an outer shell and an internal filling fluid. The shell comprises a base and steel balls assembled together. In existing technologies, the base and steel balls need to be manually placed onto a fixture for gluing, followed by drying and marking of the assembled level. Given the small size of the level and the large number of batches required, this manual processing method is inefficient and prone to errors. This invention aims to design a fully automated machine for conveying and processing level components. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a horizontal bubble filling steel ball dispensing and marking machine that automatically and mechanically conveys and processes horizontal bubbles in batches, thereby improving processing efficiency and freeing up labor.

[0004] This invention adopts the following technical solution: a horizontal bubble filling steel ball dispensing and marking integrated machine, including a conveyor belt, a V-shaped guide sidewall at the input end of the conveyor belt, and several parallel flow channels for conveying horizontal bubble bottom shells at the distal outlet of the guide sidewall. Above the flow channels, along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt, a steel ball conveying mechanism, a steel ball pressing mechanism, a dispensing mechanism, and a drying mechanism are sequentially arranged. An intercepting mechanism is provided at the inlet end of the flow channels and behind the steel ball conveying mechanism, the steel ball pressing mechanism, the dispensing mechanism, and the drying mechanism. The intercepting mechanism blocks the horizontal bubble bottom shells when it extends into the flow channels. The steel ball conveying mechanism is used to convey steel balls and place them horizontally. On the bottom shell of the bubble, the steel ball pressing mechanism presses the steel ball and the horizontal bottom shell together as one piece, the glue dispensing mechanism dispenses glue onto the horizontal bottom shell, the drying mechanism dries the horizontal bottom shell, and the interception mechanism causes the horizontal bottom shell to be conveyed backward when leaving the flow channel; the outlet end of the flow channel is equipped with a flipping suction mechanism and a suction and transfer mechanism, and the side of the outlet end of the flow channel is equipped with a marking mechanism. The flipping suction mechanism is used to adsorb the horizontal bottom shell at the outlet end of the flow channel and flip it outward, the suction and transfer mechanism is used to adsorb the horizontal bottom shell on the flipping suction mechanism and transfer it to the storage seat on the side, and the marking mechanism is used to mark the surface of the horizontal bottom shell at the storage seat with scale lines.

[0005] As an improvement, the marking mechanism and the storage seat are in two sets, and the two sets of marking mechanism and storage seat are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the flow channel outlet. The suction and transfer mechanism transfers the horizontal bubble bottom shell to the storage seats on both sides intermittently.

[0006] As an improvement, the storage base includes storage chambers arranged in a matrix for placing horizontal bubble bottom shells and a draw plate located below the storage chambers. The draw plate is connected to a translation cylinder, which causes the horizontal bubble bottom shells with marked scale lines to fall downwards when the translation cylinder starts to pull out the draw plate.

[0007] As an improvement, the flipping suction mechanism includes a flipping plate and a flipping rod. The surface of the flipping plate has adsorption holes arranged in a matrix for adsorbing the bottom shell of horizontal bubbles. The adsorption holes are connected to an air pump. The flipping plate is set on the flipping rod, and the flipping rod is connected to a rotary cylinder, which drives the flipping plate to reciprocate.

[0008] As an improvement, the material transfer mechanism includes a suction plate, a lifting cylinder, a horizontal track, and a translation cylinder. The surface of the suction plate has suction holes arranged in a matrix for adsorbing the bottom shells of horizontal bubbles. The suction holes are connected to an air pump. The suction plate is mounted on the lifting cylinder, which drives the suction plate to move up and down, thereby allowing the suction plate to adsorb the bottom shells of horizontal bubbles on the flip plate below or place the adsorbed bottom shells of horizontal bubbles on the storage seat. The lifting cylinder is mounted on the horizontal track, and the translation cylinder is connected to the lifting cylinder and drives the lifting cylinder and the suction plate on it to move along the horizontal track.

[0009] As an improvement, the interception mechanism includes an interception cylinder and an interception component, the interception component being located at the lower part of the interception cylinder and driven by the interception cylinder to move up and down.

[0010] As an improvement, the lower end of the interceptor is formed into a baffle that can extend independently into the corresponding flow channel.

[0011] As an improvement, several vertically placed turntables are provided at the inlet ends of several flow channels. Several turntables are located on the side of the inlet end of the flow channel. The axis of the turntable is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the flow channel. When the adjacent turntables rotate, they guide the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble to enter the flow channel from the far end outlet of the guide sidewall.

[0012] As an improvement, the outer edges of the turntables are chamfered on both sides, thereby forming a V-shaped opening on the outer edges of adjacent turntables to guide the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble into the flow channel.

[0013] As an improvement, a photoelectric sensor is installed above the front of the interception mechanism at the inlet of the flow channel to detect whether there is material accumulation at the inlet of the flow channel. When the photoelectric sensor detects that the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble below has stayed for more than the rated time, it sends a feedback signal to the interception mechanism at the inlet of the flow channel to block the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: the assembly and forming of the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble and the steel ball are completed sequentially by arranging the conveyor belt and the various mechanisms on it along the flow channel; the horizontal bubble can reach the subsequent station for surface marking by the transfer at the outlet end of the conveyor belt; the overall assembly is automated and mechanized, freeing up labor, improving the efficiency of automated operation, and effectively ensuring the yield rate.

[0021] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] like Figure 1 , 2Figures 3, 4, 5, and 6 show a specific embodiment of the horizontal bubble filling steel ball dispensing and marking integrated machine of the present invention. This embodiment includes a conveyor belt 1, with a V-shaped guide sidewall 2 at the input end of the conveyor belt 1. The distal outlet of the guide sidewall 2 connects to several parallel flow channels 3 for conveying the horizontal bubble bottom shells. Above the flow channels 3, along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 1, a steel ball conveying mechanism 4, a steel ball pressing mechanism 5, a dispensing mechanism 6, and a drying mechanism 7 are sequentially arranged. An intercepting mechanism 8 is provided at the inlet end of the flow channel 3 and behind the steel ball conveying mechanism 4, the steel ball pressing mechanism 5, the dispensing mechanism 6, and the drying mechanism 7. The intercepting mechanism 8 blocks the horizontal bubble bottom shell when it extends into the flow channel 3. The steel ball conveying mechanism 4 conveys steel balls and places them on the horizontal bubble bottom shell, and the steel ball pressing mechanism 5 presses the steel balls... The horizontal bubble bottom shell is pressed together with the horizontal bubble bottom shell. The dispensing mechanism 6 dispenses glue to the horizontal bubble bottom shell, the drying mechanism 7 dries the horizontal bubble bottom shell, and the interception mechanism 8 causes the horizontal bubble bottom shell to be conveyed backward when leaving the flow channel 3. The outlet end of the flow channel 3 is provided with a flipping suction mechanism 9 and a suction and transfer mechanism 10. The side of the outlet end of the flow channel 3 is provided with a scribing mechanism 11. The flipping suction mechanism 9 is used to adsorb the horizontal bubble bottom shell at the outlet end of the flow channel 3 and flip it outward by 180 degrees. The suction and transfer mechanism 10 is used to adsorb the horizontal bubble bottom shell on the flipping suction mechanism 9 and transfer it to the storage seat 12 on the side. The scribing mechanism 11 is used to scribble scale lines on the surface of the horizontal bubble bottom shell at the storage seat 12.

[0023] In use, this invention involves a batch of horizontal bubble bottom shells being transported to the input end of conveyor belt 1 by a preceding conveying mechanism. Conveyor belt 1 has a certain width to receive the horizontal bubble bottom shells in batches. After entering guide sidewall 2, the horizontal bubble bottom shells gradually converge towards the center through the V-shaped structure of guide sidewall 2, entering flow channel 3 at the far end of guide sidewall 2. Flow channel 3 is preferably provided with four channels, thus forming a 4*X array of horizontal bubble bottom shells for subsequent processing. X can be 8-10, preferably 10, meaning each batch forms 4*10, totaling 40 horizontal bubble bottom shells for subsequent transport and processing at each station. When the subsequent steel ball conveying mechanism 4 is full of horizontal bubble bottom shells, an intercepting mechanism 8 at the inlet end of flow channel 3 extends into flow channel 3 to block the horizontal bubble bottom shells, preventing excessive accumulation in subsequent processes, which would hinder batch processing at subsequent stations. When a batch of horizontal bubble bottom shells reaches the steel ball conveying mechanism 4, it is blocked by the corresponding intercepting mechanism 8. The steel ball conveying mechanism 4 then transports 4*10 steel balls from the outside to the top of the horizontal bubble bottom shell and places them on it. Afterwards, the intercepting mechanism 8 rises, allowing the batch of horizontal bubble bottom shells to continue to be conveyed to the steel ball pressing mechanism 5, where it is blocked by the next intercepting mechanism 8. The steel ball pressing mechanism 5 presses the steel balls and the horizontal bubble bottom shell into a single structure. Afterwards, the intercepting mechanism 8 rises, allowing the batch of horizontal bubble bottom shells to continue to be conveyed to the dispensing mechanism 6, where it is blocked by the next intercepting mechanism 8. The dispensing mechanism 6 extrudes glue to seal the edges of the steel balls and the horizontal bubble bottom shell. Afterwards, the intercepting mechanism 8 rises, allowing the batch of horizontal bubble bottom shells to continue to be conveyed to the drying mechanism 7, where it is blocked by the next intercepting mechanism 8. The drying mechanism 7 dries and extrudes the glue to set its shape. Afterwards, the intercepting mechanism 8 rises, allowing the batch of horizontal bubble bottom shells to continue to be conveyed to the outlet end of the flow channel 3 and remain there. According to the processing requirements of each batch of horizontal bubble bottom shells, an interception mechanism 8 can be further added between each workstation to block the horizontal bubble bottom shells, thus achieving a certain material storage function, reducing the efficiency difference caused by different processing progress between the preceding and following processes, and improving the overall processing efficiency. The flipping suction mechanism 9 adsorbs the batch of horizontal bubble bottom shells at the outlet end of the flow channel 3 and flips them outward by 180 degrees; the suction and transfer mechanism 10 adsorbs the horizontal bubble bottom shells from above the flipping suction mechanism 9 and transfers them to the storage seat 12 on the side; the marking mechanism 11 marks the surface of the batch of horizontal bubble bottom shells at the storage seat 12 with scale lines. After the horizontal bubble bottom shells are marked, all processing steps are completed, and they can be discharged through an additional conveying mechanism or transfer mechanism. The marking mechanism 11 can be implemented using existing technology, which will not be described further. This invention achieves automated and mechanized assembly as a whole, liberating labor, improving the efficiency of automated operation, and effectively ensuring the yield rate.

[0024] As an improved specific implementation, the marking mechanism 11 and the storage seat 12 are two sets, and the two sets of marking mechanism 11 and storage seat 12 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the outlet end of the flow channel 3. The suction and transfer mechanism 10 transfers the horizontal bubble bottom shell to the storage seats 12 on both sides intermittently.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, compared to the preceding processing station, the marking operation requires more time, almost twice the processing time. Therefore, the steps of the marking mechanism 11 may affect the overall processing efficiency of the horizontal bubble. Preferably, two sets of marking mechanisms 11 and storage seats 12 are set up on the left and right sides, which can process two batches of horizontal bubbles simultaneously, thereby balancing the processing rate of the preceding horizontal bubble. The horizontal bubble can be conveyed to the left or right intermittently, allowing the two sets of marking mechanisms 11 to process the preceding and following batches of horizontal bubbles separately, thereby ensuring the overall processing efficiency. Preferably, each set of storage seats 12 can also be arranged horizontally in multiples, thereby storing more sets of horizontal bubbles for the marking mechanism 11 to process, which can play a certain buffering role in case of possible compression.

[0026] As an improved specific implementation, the storage seat 12 includes a storage cavity 121 arranged in a matrix for placing horizontal bubble bottom shells and a draw plate 122 located below the storage cavity 121. The draw plate 122 is externally connected to a translation cylinder 123. When the translation cylinder 123 starts to pull out the draw plate 122, it causes the horizontal bubble bottom shells that have completed the scale lines to fall downwards.

[0027] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the storage chamber 121 forms a 4*10 horizontal bubble placement array, with the upper part of the horizontal bubble protruding outside the storage chamber 121 for the marking mechanism 11 to perform marking operations; the lower pull plate 122 supports the horizontal bubble. After the marking is completed, the translation cylinder 123 is activated to pull the pull plate 122 away, allowing the horizontal bubble to fall downwards. The collection box is set below to directly collect or discharge the material via a chute, conveyor belt, etc., to achieve efficient horizontal bubble discharge without the need for additional complex components such as a transfer robot, thereby effectively reducing equipment costs.

[0028] As an improved specific implementation, the flipping suction mechanism 9 includes a flipping plate 91 and a flipping rod 92. The surface of the flipping plate 91 has adsorption holes arranged in a matrix for adsorbing the bottom shell of horizontal bubbles. The adsorption holes are connected to an air pump. The flipping plate 91 is set on the flipping rod 92, and the flipping rod 92 is connected to a rotary cylinder, thereby driving the flipping plate 91 to reciprocate 180 degrees.

[0029] like Figure 1 , 2As shown, the adsorption holes on the flip plate 91 form a 4*10 horizontal bubble adsorption array. When the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble is in position at the outlet end of the flow channel 3 (this can be detected by a sensor), the flip rod 92 flips the flip plate 91 until the adsorption holes contact the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble, and the air pump starts adsorbing the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble. Then, the flip rod 92 drives the flip plate 91 to flip 180 degrees, so that the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble faces upward and reaches the corresponding outer position of the suction and transfer mechanism 10. After the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble is taken away by the suction and transfer mechanism 10, the flip plate 91 resets to transfer the next batch of bottom shells. Compared with the ordinary robot arm structure, the above structure occupies less space, greatly reduces the complexity of the components, and can effectively control the size and cost of the equipment.

[0030] As an improved specific implementation, the material suction and transfer mechanism 10 includes a suction plate 101, a lifting cylinder 102, a horizontal track 103, and a translation cylinder. The surface of the suction plate 101 has suction holes arranged in a matrix for adsorbing the bottom shells of horizontal bubbles. The suction holes are connected to an air pump. The suction plate 101 is mounted on the lifting cylinder 102. The lifting cylinder 102 drives the suction plate 101 to move up and down, thereby causing the suction plate 101 to adsorb the bottom shells of horizontal bubbles on the flip plate 91 below or to place the adsorbed bottom shells of horizontal bubbles on the storage seat 12. The lifting cylinder 102 is mounted on the horizontal track 103. The translation cylinder is connected to the lifting cylinder 102 and drives the lifting cylinder 102 and the suction plate 101 on it to move along the horizontal track 103.

[0031] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the suction holes on the suction plate 101 form a 4*10 horizontal bubble adsorption array (not shown in the figure, but refer to the structure of the flip plate 91). When the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble transported by the flip plate 91 is in place (the flip plate 91 can be sensed by setting a sensor to flip it into place), the lifting cylinder 102 drives the suction plate 101 to descend until the suction holes contact the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble, and the air pump starts to adsorb the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble (at the same time, the adsorption at the flip plate 91 is released). Then the lifting cylinder 102 rises and resets, and the translation cylinder drives the suction plate 101 and the lifting cylinder 102 to the storage seat 12 on one side. The lifting cylinder 102 drives the suction plate 101 to descend to the storage seat 12 to place the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble. Then the suction plate 101 resets to the initial position to await the transport of the next bottom shell of the horizontal bubble. The horizontal track 103 allows for the efficient arrangement of the suction plate 101 and the lifting cylinder 102, enabling the horizontal bubble bottom shell to move horizontally in a stable and orderly manner. The translation cylinder (mounted in the bracket, not shown in the figure) drives the suction plate 101 and the lifting cylinder 102 to move in an orderly manner. Compared with ordinary robotic arm structures, this structure occupies less space, greatly reduces the complexity of components, and effectively controls the size and cost of the equipment.

[0032] As an improved specific implementation, the interception mechanism 8 includes an interception cylinder 81 and an interception member 82. The interception member 82 is disposed at the lower part of the interception cylinder 81 and is driven by the interception cylinder 81 to move up and down.

[0033] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown in Figures 5 and 6, the intercepting cylinder 81 is used to drive the intercepting component 82 to rise and fall. The intercepting cylinder 81 can be connected to the control module of the equipment. After processing is completed at one station, and there are no horizontal bubble bottom shells at the intercepting mechanism 8 of the next station or the next storage material, the intercepting cylinder 81 drives the intercepting component 82 to rise and release the batch of horizontal bubble bottom shells. After determining that the batch of horizontal bubble bottom shells has completely left the conveyor belt 1 based on its running speed, or after the sensor detects that the batch of horizontal bubble bottom shells has completely left the conveyor belt 1, the intercepting cylinder 81 drives the intercepting component 82 to fall and block the next batch of horizontal bubble bottom shells. Overall, this achieves orderly processing at each station and orderly conveying of the horizontal bubble bottom shells.

[0034] As an improved specific implementation, the lower end of the interceptor 82 forms a baffle 83 that can independently extend into the corresponding flow channel 3.

[0035] like Figure 5 As shown, depending on the number of flow channels 3, each baffle 83 can extend well into its corresponding flow channel 3 to block the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble in that flow channel 3.

[0036] As an improved specific implementation, several vertically placed turntables 31 are provided at the inlet end of several flow channels 3. Several turntables 31 are arranged on the side of the inlet end of the flow channel 3. The axis of the turntables 31 is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the flow channel 3. When the adjacent turntables 31 rotate, they guide the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble from the far end outlet of the guide sidewall 2 into the flow channel 3.

[0037] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, when the horizontal bubble bottom shell is guided and gathered by the guide sidewall 2, it may encounter resistance and blockage at the distal outlet and even at the inlet of the flow channel 3. The further provided turntables 31, as shown in the figure, form a structure on both sides of the inlet end of the flow channels 3 to divide and move the horizontal bubble bottom shell. After the horizontal bubble bottom shell comes into contact with the turntable 31, it will be moved towards one side of the flow channel 3 as the turntable 31 rotates. When the horizontal bubble bottom shell is facing the flow channel 3, it can enter the flow channel 3 more smoothly under the guidance of the turntable 31, thereby avoiding blockage.

[0038] As an improved specific implementation, the outer edges of the turntable 31 have chamfers 32 on both sides, thereby forming a V-shaped opening on the outer edges of adjacent turntables 31 to guide the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble into the flow channel 3.

[0039] like Figure 3 ,4 As shown, the V-shaped horizontal bubble bottom shell formed by the chamfer 32 can pass through a larger space, and the area of ​​the outer end of the turntable 31 is smaller, which can more effectively guide the horizontal bubble bottom shell to move to one side of the flow channel 3 and smoothly enter the corresponding flow channel 3.

[0040] As an improved specific implementation, several turntables 31 are coaxially connected by a rotating shaft 311, and the rotating shaft 311 is connected to a motor 312 to synchronously drive the several turntables 31.

[0041] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, the motor 312 provides power, and a rotating shaft 311 synchronously drives several turntables 31 to rotate. While controlling the cost of components, it ensures the stable and synchronous operation of several turntables 31, thereby stabilizing the guidance of the horizontal bubble bottom shell.

[0042] As an improved specific implementation, a photoelectric sensor 33 is provided above the front of the interception mechanism 8 at the inlet end of the flow channel 3 to detect whether there is material accumulation at the inlet end of the flow channel 3. When the photoelectric sensor 33 detects that the horizontal bubble bottom shell below has stayed for more than the rated time, it feeds back a signal to the interception mechanism 8 at the inlet end of the flow channel 3 to block the horizontal bubble bottom shell.

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, the start / stop control of the interceptor 8 at the ball conveying mechanism 4 can separate the horizontal bubble bottom shells into batches of 4*10. However, the large number of horizontal bubble bottom shells entering the flow channel 3 and reaching the ball conveying mechanism 4 may put significant pressure on the interceptor 8 at the ball conveying mechanism 4. Therefore, an interceptor 8 is installed at the inlet of the flow channel 3 to effectively separate the horizontal bubble bottom shells. This separation is achieved through a photoelectric sensor 33. When the photoelectric sensor 33 detects that the horizontal bubble bottom shells below have remained for more than the rated time, it sends a feedback signal to the interceptor 8 at the inlet of the flow channel 3 to block the horizontal bubble bottom shells. After the interceptor 8 at the ball conveying mechanism 4 releases the previous batch of horizontal bubble bottom shells, the interceptor 8 at the inlet of the flow channel 3 can release the remaining horizontal bubble bottom shells, allowing them to replenish the ball conveying mechanism 4.

[0044] As an improved specific implementation method, such as Figure 6As shown, the steel ball conveying mechanism 4 includes a steel ball suction plate 41, a steel ball cylinder 42, a translation track 43, a lead screw 44, and a steel ball hopper 45. The translation track 43 is arranged perpendicular to the flow channel 3, and the steel ball cylinder 42 slides on the translation track 43. The surface of the steel ball suction plate 41 has suction holes arranged in a matrix for adsorbing steel balls. The suction holes are connected to an air pump. The steel ball suction plate 41 is mounted on the steel ball cylinder 42, and the steel ball cylinder 42 drives the steel ball suction plate. 41 is raised and lowered, thereby causing the steel ball suction plate 41 to suction steel balls from the steel ball hopper 45 or to place the suction steel balls in the horizontal bubble bottom shell below; the lead screw 44 is connected to the external drive motor and passes through the bracket of the steel ball cylinder 42. When the lead screw 44 rotates, it drives the steel ball cylinder 42 and the steel ball suction plate 41 to move along the translation track 43, thereby aligning the steel ball suction plate 41 with the outer steel ball hopper 45 or the horizontal bubble bottom shell of the inner flow channel 3.

[0045] As an improved specific implementation method, such as Figure 6 As shown, the steel ball pressing mechanism 5 includes a steel ball pressing cylinder and a pressure plate. The steel ball pressing cylinder drives the pressure plate to rise and fall. When it falls, the steel ball and the horizontal bubble bottom shell are pressed together to form an integral structure.

[0046] As an improved specific implementation method, such as Figure 5 As shown, the dispensing mechanism 6 includes a dispensing lifting cylinder and a dispensing needle. The dispensing lifting cylinder drives the dispensing needle to rise and fall. When it descends, the dispensing needle expels glue to seal the edge of the steel ball and the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble.

[0047] As an improved specific implementation method, such as Figure 1 As shown, the drying mechanism 7 includes several heating lamps to dry and shape the steel balls below and the adhesive on the bottom shell of the horizontal bubble.

[0048] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of the present invention's concept are within the scope of protection of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of the present invention should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
