[0043] like Figure 5 In an embodiment of a material buffer device for electronic paper production, the direction of arrow B21 is the feeding direction of the feeding assembly 212; the direction of arrow B22 is the direction of the material entering the buffer tray A group 280 from the feeding assembly; the direction of arrow B23 is the direction of the material transferring from the bottom of the buffer tray A group 280 to the bottom of the buffer tray B group 290; the direction of arrow B24 is the direction of the material transferring from the top of the buffer tray B group 290 to the discharging assembly 212. The direction of arrow B24 is the direction of the empty tray moving and stacking.

[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 In an embodiment of an electronic paper production material caching device, an empty tray stacking assembly is further included; the empty tray stacking assembly includes an empty tray stacking area and an empty tray moving device E; the empty tray 211 from which the electronic paper production material is taken out is moved by the empty tray moving device E and stacked in the empty tray stacking area.

[0047] like Figure 2 In an embodiment of a caching device for electronic paper production materials, the electronic paper production materials are electronic paper modules, and the feed line assembly is connected to a visual glue dispenser. After the visual glue dispenser dispenses glue on the electronic paper module, it needs to cache for a sufficient time to allow the glue to solidify and form a fixed connection relationship in the material before entering the next process. Before entering the next process, a cache space needs to be set. If manual intervention is required, the uncertainty in manual movement, such as scattering and vibration, will affect the material.

[0048] Cache in the electronic paper production material cache device of the present application. The electronic paper production material cache device in the present application provides a three-dimensional cache space for flow cache, and can set different cache capacities according to the curing time requirements of different dispensing processes, so that the cache time and cache space can be coordinated most efficiently. There is no need to set up a separate cache space, and there is no need for manual intervention in the cache process. The whole process is automated and more efficient.

[0049] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 In an embodiment of a material caching method for electronic paper production, it includes a feed control module A, a discharge control module B, and a cache stack group A and group B circular rotation control module AB; the feed control module A, the discharge control module B, and the cache stack group A and group B circular rotation control module AB all include corresponding software programs and hardware components.

[0050] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 In an embodiment of a material caching method for electronic paper production, a feed control module A checks whether there is a need to cache materials. If there is a need to cache materials, it queries whether there are cache spaces in cache stacks A and B. If the cache stacks A and B need to rotate cyclically, they cooperate with the discharge control module B to lock the feeding or discharging process, and the cache stacks A and B are rotated by the cache stacks A and B cyclic rotation control module AB so that the cache spaces are moved to the upper surface of the cache stacks A. The feed control module A places the cache materials in the cache spaces on the upper surface of the cache stacks A.

[0051] like Figure 6 and Figure 7In an embodiment of a material caching method for electronic paper production, a discharge control module B checks whether there is a need to discharge the cached material. If there is a need to discharge the cached material, it queries whether there is cached material in cache pile plate group A and group B; if necessary, the cache pile plate group A and group B rotate cyclically, and cooperate with the feed control module A to lock the feeding or discharging process, and the cache pile plate group A and group B are rotated by the cache pile plate group A and group B cyclic rotation control module AB, so that the cached material moves to the upper surface of the cache pile plate group B; the discharge control module B grabs the material from the upper surface of the cache pile plate group B and discharges it.

[0052] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 The cache disk group A and group B circular rotation control module AB moves the cache disk on the upper layer of cache disk group B to the upper layer of cache disk group A; the cache disk group A and group B circular rotation control module AB moves the cache disk on the lower layer of cache disk group A to the lower layer of cache disk group B.

[0053] In some embodiments, the number of cache disks in cache disk group A, NA, can be set; the number of cache disks in cache disk group B, NB, can be set; the speed at which the infeed assembly conveys electronic paper production materials can be set; the speed at which the outfeed assembly conveys electronic paper production materials can be set. The number of cache disks in cache disk group A, NA, can be set; the number of cache disks in cache disk group A, NA, matches the feed speed and the cache time; the number of cache disks in cache disk group B, NB, can be set; the number of cache disks in cache disk group B, NB, matches the feed speed and the cache time.

[0054] By setting two groups of cache disks, a recyclable cache space is established, and the capacity of the cache space can be determined by the number of cache disks NA in cache disk group A and the number of cache disks NB in ​​cache disk group B. The speed of the infeed assembly line component to convey the electronic paper production material can be set; the speed of the outfeed assembly line component to convey the electronic paper production material can be set. Therefore, the coordination of cache time and space can be more flexible.

[0055] For example, when the time required for glue curing is 20 minutes, the time from feeding into cache tray A to discharging from cache tray B can be set to be greater than or equal to 20 minutes. Within 20 minutes, if the feeding rate is 4 pieces of electronic paper production materials per minute, there is at least 80 = 20 * 4 pieces of material storage space in the cache space.

[0056] The size of the cache trays in the cache tray group A and group B and the number of electronic paper production materials that can be placed can also be adjusted and changed according to actual needs. As long as the cache space matches the feed speed and the discharge speed. The feed speed and the discharge speed can be the same or different, and can be flexibly set according to actual usage.

[0057] The cyclic rotation control module AB of the cache pile plate group A and the cache pile plate group B moves the cache disk on the upper layer of the cache pile plate group B to the upper layer of the cache pile plate group A each time. If there is a cache space, the feed control module A determines whether there is cache material. If there is cache material, the feed control module A controls the cache material to be placed in the cache space.

[0058] The cyclic rotation control module AB of cache pile plate group A and group B moves the cache disk on the upper layer of cache pile plate group B to the upper layer of cache pile plate group A each time, the cache disk in cache pile plate group B moves up one layer, and the discharging control module B determines whether there is a discharging demand. If there is a discharging control module B, the discharging control module B detects whether there is material on the cache disk on the upper layer of cache pile plate group B. If there is material, the discharging control module B grabs the material from the upper surface of cache pile plate group B and discharging it.

[0059] like Figures 8 to 10 , in the specific application of the material caching device and method for electronic paper production. The function of the device is to statically cache the silica gel products. The product trays are fed in, and the empty trays after taking the products are automatically stacked, and the materials are manually unloaded. The time interval for unloading the empty trays is ≥60min; the product is static in the equipment for ≥25min; the static products are automatically unloaded to the unloading belt line. Figures 8 to 10 1. The pallet is fed into the equipment from the belt line; 2. The upper camera takes a picture, and the loading robot takes the product to the cache tray; 3. After the products on the pallet are taken out, the empty pallet is collected; 4. After the empty pallet is stacked up to 32 layers, it is moved to the discharge position via the belt line; 5. After the second stack of empty pallets is stacked up to 32 layers, the equipment prompts manual material removal. Fig. 9 In the figure, the arrow direction is the cutting direction. Fig. 9 In the figure, the direction of the arrow is the flow direction of the material. The product to be cached is the material for producing electronic paper. As shown in Table 1 below, compared with the static process of manually intervening in the cache, the improved production capacity and the yield rate of product repair in this application are greatly improved.

If there is material that needs to be cached, it queries whether there is vacant cache space in cache stack group A and group B; If the cache stacking discs A and B need to be rotated cyclically, the feeding or discharging process is locked in coordination with the discharging control module B, and the cache stacking discs A and B are rotated by the cyclic rotation control module AB so that the cache space moves to the upper surface of the cache stacking disc A; The feed control module A places the cached materials into the cache space on the upper surface of the cache stack plate group A; The material discharging control module B checks whether there is a need to discharge the cached material. If so, it queries whether there is a cached material in the cache stack group A and group B; If necessary, the cache stacking trays A and B rotate cyclically, and cooperate with the feeding control module A to lock the feeding or discharging process, and the cache stacking trays A and B are rotated by the cache stacking trays A and B cyclic rotation control module AB, so that the cached materials are moved to the upper surface of the cache stacking trays B; The discharging control module B grabs the material from the upper surface of the buffer stack plate group B and discharges it.

8. The electronic paper production material caching method according to claim 7, characterized in that: The cache stack disk group A and group B circular rotation control module AB moves the cache disk on the upper layer of the cache stack disk group B to the upper layer of the cache stack disk group A; The cache disk group A and group B circular rotation control module AB moves the cache disk in the lower layer of the cache disk group A to the lower layer of the cache disk group B.

9. The electronic paper production material caching method according to claim 8, characterized in that: The cache stacking disk group A and group B circular rotation control module AB moves the cache disk on the upper layer of the cache stacking disk group B to the upper layer of the cache stacking disk group A each time. If there is a cache vacancy, the feed control module A determines whether there is cache material. If there is cache material, the feed control module A controls to put the cache material into the cache vacancy; The cyclic rotation control module AB of cache pile plate group A and group B moves the cache disk on the upper layer of cache pile plate group B to the upper layer of cache pile plate group A each time, the cache disk in cache pile plate group B moves up one layer, and the discharging control module B determines whether there is a discharging demand. If there is a discharging control module B, the discharging control module B detects whether there is material on the cache disk on the upper layer of cache pile plate group B. If there is material, the discharging control module B grabs the material from the upper surface of cache pile plate group B and discharging it.

10. The electronic paper production material caching method according to claim 8, characterized in that: The number NA of cache disks in cache stack A group can be set; the number NA of cache disks in cache stack A group matches the feed speed and cache time; The number NB of cache disks in the cache stack B group can be set; the number NB of cache disks in the cache stack B group matches the feed speed and the cache time.
