Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of adhesive roller cleaning, and more specifically, to an automatic adhesive roller cleaning device. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of society and economy, mechanical automation has become a common occurrence in society, and the use of glue coating machines has become a necessity for mechanized production. For example, when producing copper-clad laminates and other industrial boards, glue needs to be applied to complete the multi-layer stacking. When applying glue, glue coating rollers are usually required.
[0003] When applying adhesive rollers to different industrial sheets, the type of adhesive required may vary. To ensure the bonding effect between the industrial sheets, the adhesive on the rollers needs to be cleaned to remove any impurities and residues. However, the current cleaning process for rollers is mostly done manually, requiring workers to wear gloves and scrape off the adhesive from the roller surface. Adhesives are generally corrosive, and manual scraping can affect the health of operators. Furthermore, relying entirely on manual operation increases the labor intensity for operators, and manual cleaning of the rollers can easily damage them, reducing production line efficiency.
[0004] How to invent an automatic cleaning device for glue-coating rollers to improve these problems has become an urgent problem to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, the present invention provides an automatic cleaning device for adhesive coating rollers, which aims to improve the problem of difficult manual cleaning of existing adhesive coating rollers.
[0006] This invention is implemented as follows:
[0007] The present invention provides an automatic cleaning device for adhesive coating rollers, including a device body, wherein a placement platform is installed on both the front and rear sides of the device body;
[0008] The material feeding mechanism is set on the placement platform, which places the glue rollers that need to be cleaned onto the placement columns in sequence, waiting for subsequent cleaning.
[0009] The adhesive scraping mechanism, installed on the main body of the device, is used to initially scrape off the residual adhesive on the adhesive roller;
[0010] The cleaning mechanism works in conjunction with the adhesive scraping mechanism. After the adhesive scraping mechanism has finished scraping the adhesive on the surface of the coating roller, the cleaning mechanism sprays and cleans the coating roller.
[0011] Preferably, the feeding mechanism includes multiple robotic arms installed on a feeding platform, a movable plate slidably disposed on the feeding platform, and multiple feeding columns fixedly connected to the upper outer wall of the movable plate.
[0012] Preferably, the adhesive scraping mechanism includes a mounting beam installed on the main body of the device. Reciprocating screws are rotatably connected to both sides of the mounting beam. A motor mounting component is fixedly connected to the upper outer wall of the mounting beam, and a starter motor is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the motor mounting component. The right reciprocating screw is located at the output end of the starter motor, and a rotating wheel is fixedly connected to the upper end of the right reciprocating screw. A transmission belt is sleeved on the rotating wheel. A drive wheel is fixedly sleeved to the upper end of the left reciprocating screw, and the other end of the transmission belt is sleeved on the outer wall of the drive wheel. Cleaning components are threaded onto the outer walls of both the left and right reciprocating screws. An adhesive scraping hole is provided in the middle of the cleaning component, and an inner scraper is provided on the inner wall of the adhesive scraping hole.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the glue scraping hole can remove excess glue from the glue coating roller.
[0014] Preferably, the cleaning mechanism includes rollers rotatably connected to both sides of the cleaning component. A rolling contact plate is provided on the side wall of the mounting beam, and the rollers contact the rolling contact plate. A transmission rod is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the rollers. A one-way gear is fixedly connected to the end of the transmission rod. A one-way drive rod is rotatably connected to the one-way gear. Multiple one-way baffles are rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the one-way drive rod. A return spring is provided on the outer side wall of each of the multiple one-way baffles. The one-way baffles slide in contact with the one-way gear. A reciprocating drive component is fixedly connected to the end of the one-way drive rod. The reciprocating drive component is located inside the cleaning component.
[0015] Preferably, a swing arm is rotatably connected to the outer side wall of the reciprocating drive component, a push plate is slidably connected to the inner side wall of the cleaning component, and the end of the swing arm away from the reciprocating drive component is rotatably connected to the outer side wall of the push plate.
[0016] Preferably, the inner wall of the cleaning component is provided with a plurality of spray nozzles, and the inner wall of each of the plurality of spray nozzles is slidably connected with a push rod, the end of the push rod being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the push plate.
[0017] Preferably, the top of the cleaning component is provided with a liquid storage tank, and the inside of the spray nozzle is connected to an infusion hose, the other end of which is connected to the inside of the liquid storage tank.
[0018] Preferably, the end of the spray cylinder is connected to a spray pipe, which extends into the interior of the glue scraping hole.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the nozzle can be set to spray adhesive remover into the adhesive scraping hole.
[0020] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0021] By setting up the cleaning component, the previously used glue-applying rollers can be placed in batches on the placement column by the robotic arm during use. Then, via the conveying of the moving plate, the glue-applying rollers will come to the bottom of the mounting beam. At this time, the cleaning component on the mounting beam will first scrape off the excess glue on the glue-applying rollers by the inner scraper inside the glue-scraping hole, which is convenient for subsequent cleaning.
[0022] As the cleaning component continues to move upward, the transmission mechanism inside the cleaning component sprays adhesive remover onto the surface of the coating roller to dilute and clean it. By first scraping off the adhesive and then spraying the thinner, the impurities on the surface of the coating roller can be cleaned efficiently. Moreover, the entire cleaning process relies entirely on the automatic operation of the mechanism, without the need for manual operation, which greatly improves the cleaning efficiency of the coating roller.

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0032] Example
[0033] Reference Figure 1-3 An automatic cleaning device for adhesive rollers includes a main body 1, with a placement platform 101 installed on both the front and rear sides of the main body 1, and a feeding mechanism installed on the placement platform 101 to place the adhesive rollers to be cleaned onto the placement columns 103 in sequence for subsequent cleaning. The feeding mechanism includes multiple robotic arms 104 installed on the placement platform 101, and a movable plate 102 slidably installed on the placement platform 101. Multiple placement columns 103 are fixedly connected to the upper outer wall of the movable plate 102.
[0034] Furthermore, a scraping mechanism, installed on the main body 1 of the device, performs preliminary scraping of residual adhesive on the adhesive roller. The scraping mechanism includes a mounting beam 2 installed on the main body 1. Reciprocating screws 207 are rotatably connected to both sides of the mounting beam 2. A motor mounting component 201 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the upper end of the mounting beam 2. A starter motor 202 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the motor mounting component 201. The right reciprocating screw 207 is located at the output end of the starter motor 202. A rotating wheel 204 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the right reciprocating screw 207, and a transmission belt 205 is sleeved on the rotating wheel 204. A drive wheel 206 is fixedly sleeved to the upper end of the left reciprocating screw 207, and the other end of the transmission belt 205 is sleeved on the outer side wall of the drive wheel 206. A cleaning part 3 is threaded on the outer side wall of both the left and right reciprocating screws 207. A scraping hole 304 is provided in the middle of the cleaning part 3, and an inner scraper 305 is provided on the inner side wall of the scraping hole 304.
[0035] It should be noted that when the reciprocating screw 207 rotates and causes the cleaning part 3 to move downward, the roller 301 will also rotate when it contacts the rolling contact plate 203. However, when the downward rotating roller 301 drives the one-way gear plate 314 at the bottom of the transmission rod 302 to rotate, the one-way baffle 315 on the one-way drive rod 303 will continuously contact the inclined side of the one-way gear plate 314 and will not drive the one-way drive rod 303 to rotate. In this way, when the cleaning part 3 moves downward to clean the glue coating roller, the glue scraping hole 304 will not spray the glue remover, but simply scrape off the glue on the surface of the glue coating roller, which facilitates the subsequent cleaning effect.
[0036] Reference Figure 4-6 The cleaning mechanism is linked with the adhesive scraping mechanism. After the adhesive scraping mechanism has scraped the adhesive on the surface of the coating roller, the cleaning mechanism sprays and cleans the coating roller. The cleaning mechanism includes rollers 301 rotatably connected to both sides of the cleaning component 3. A liquid storage tank 309 is provided on the top of the cleaning component 3. An infusion hose 312 is connected inside the spray cylinder 311. The other end of the infusion hose 312 is connected to the inside of the liquid storage tank 309. Multiple spray cylinders 311 are provided on the inner side wall of the cleaning component 3. A spray pipe 313 is connected to the end of the spray cylinder 311. The spray pipe 313 passes through the inside of the adhesive scraping hole 304. Push rods 310 are slidably connected to the inner side wall of the multiple spray cylinders 311. The end of the push rod 310 is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the push plate 308. A rolling contact plate 203 is provided on the side wall of the mounting beam 2. The rollers 301 contact the rolling contact plate 203.
[0037] Furthermore, a transmission rod 302 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the roller 301, a one-way gear 314 is fixedly connected to the end of the transmission rod 302, a one-way drive rod 303 is rotatably connected to the one-way gear 314, a plurality of one-way baffles 315 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the one-way drive rod 303, a return spring 316 is provided on the outer wall of each of the plurality of one-way baffles 315, the one-way baffles 315 slide in contact with the one-way gear 314, a reciprocating drive component 306 is fixedly connected to the end of the one-way drive rod 303, a swing arm 307 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the reciprocating drive component 306, a push plate 308 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the cleaning component 3, and the end of the swing arm 307 away from the reciprocating drive component 306 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the push plate 308, and the reciprocating drive component 306 is located inside the cleaning component 3;
[0038] It should be noted that the infusion tubing 312 is equipped with a downward-facing one-way valve, which can effectively prevent the adhesive remover from flowing back along the infusion tubing 312 when the push rod 310 sprays the adhesive remover.
[0039] The working principle of this automatic cleaning device for glue-applying rollers:
[0040] In use, the robotic arms 104 located on both sides of the placement platform 101 will vertically attach the glue-applying rollers to be cleaned onto the placement column 103 in sequence. After attachment, the moving plate 102 will drive the glue-applying rollers on the placement column 103 to move forward until they are directly below the mounting beam 2. At this point, the moving plate 102 will stop moving under the action of a sensor (this is existing technology and will not be elaborated further). At this time, the operator can turn on the starter motor 202 to rotate the reciprocating screw 207 on the right side of the mounting beam 2. When the right reciprocating screw 207 rotates, it will interact with the rotating wheel 204. The function of the transmission belt 205 is to drive the drive wheel 206 to drive the left reciprocating screw 207 to rotate synchronously. At this time, the cleaning part 3 sleeved on the reciprocating screw 207 will move up and down along the reciprocating screw 207. When the cleaning part 3 moves downward, the multiple glue-applying rollers on the moving plate 102 located directly below the cleaning part 3 will enter the corresponding glue-scraping holes 304. When the cleaning part 3 moves downward, the inner scraper 305 located in the glue-scraping hole 304 will contact the surface of the glue-applying roller and scrape off the glue residue on the surface of the glue-applying roller, which is convenient for subsequent spraying and cleaning.
[0041] When the cleaning component 3 moves up and down with the reciprocating screw 207, the rollers 301 on both sides of the cleaning component 3 will contact the rolling contact plate 203. When the cleaning component 3 moves downward, the rotating rollers 301 will not cause the cleaning mechanism inside the cleaning component 3 to spray the adhesive remover outward through the action of the one-way mechanism. On the contrary, when the reciprocating screw 207 drives the cleaning component 3 to move upward, the rollers 301 that are in contact with the rolling contact plate 203 will drive the transmission rod 302 to rotate. When the transmission rod 302 rotates, it will drive the one-way gear plate 314 at its bottom to rotate inside the one-way drive rod 303. As the one-way gear plate 314 rotates, the one-way baffle 315 inside the one-way drive rod 303 will abut against the right-angle side of the one-way gear plate 314, causing it to drive the one-way drive rod 303 to rotate synchronously.
[0042] When the one-way drive rod 303 rotates, it drives the reciprocating drive component 306 at its end to rotate. In this rotating state, the reciprocating drive component 306 drives the push plate 308 to reciprocate left and right via the swing arm 307. At this time, driven by the push plate 308, the push rod 310 performs a reciprocating suction motion within the spray nozzle 311. When the push rod 310 performs this reciprocating suction motion within the spray nozzle 311, it causes the spray nozzle 311 to draw the adhesive remover from the storage tank 309 into the spray nozzle 311 through the infusion hose 312. Inside the 11, the adhesive is sprayed through the nozzle 313 into the scraper hole 304. While the scraper hole 304 scrapes the adhesive cartridge upwards, it also sprays adhesive remover onto the surface of the cartridge, ensuring a more thorough cleaning and guaranteeing effective cleaning. After the cleaning component 3 has finished cleaning the adhesive roller on the placement column 103, the moving plate 102 continues to move to the right. At this time, the robotic arm 104 on the right side removes the adhesive cartridges from the placement column 103 one by one for future use. (This is existing technology and will not be elaborated further).
[0043] It should be noted that the specific model and specifications of the motor need to be selected and determined based on the actual specifications of the device. The specific selection and calculation method adopts the existing technology in this field, so it will not be described in detail here.
[0044] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the invention. Various modifications and variations can be made to the invention by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the invention should be included within the scope of protection of the invention.
