Batteries, with their high energy density, high safety, long lifespan, and environmental friendliness, are widely used in passenger cars, commercial vehicles, electric bicycles, heavy trucks, energy storage facilities, battery swapping stations, engineering manufacturing, and intelligent devices. They are also driving technological development and research in communication, medical devices, and energy development. In the battery production process, adhesive coating equipment is often used to coat some battery components to complete the production and assembly. However, adhesive coating equipment in related technologies often suffers from incomplete or inaccurate coating, resulting in poor coating quality and hindering subsequent battery assembly and production. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This application provides a glue-applying device and glue-applying equipment, which can effectively improve the glue-applying quality of the glue-applying device.

[0004] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide an adhesive application device, including a first mounting base, a movable base, an adhesive application mechanism, and a traction mechanism; the movable base is movably disposed on the first mounting base along a first direction; the adhesive application mechanism is disposed on the movable base and includes an adhesive application head; the traction mechanism is disposed on the movable base and includes a traction member, the traction member and the adhesive application head are arranged along a second direction, the traction member is configured to abut against a workpiece and, when the first mounting base moves along the second direction, drive the movable base to move along the first direction to adjust the position of the adhesive application head in the first direction, wherein the first direction and the second direction intersect.

[0005] In the above technical solution, the glue application device is provided with a first mounting base and a movable base. The movable base is movably mounted on the first mounting base along a first direction, and both the glue application mechanism and the traction mechanism are mounted on the movable base. The glue application head of the glue application mechanism and the traction component of the traction mechanism are arranged along a second direction. The traction component is used to abut against the workpiece, so that when the first mounting base moves along the second direction, the traction component can follow the trajectory of the workpiece and drive the movable base to move in the first direction, thereby adjusting the glue application position of the glue application head in the first direction. When the workpiece has an irregular shape or is deformed, the traction component of the traction mechanism can automatically adjust the glue application trajectory of the glue application head according to the shape of the workpiece, without the need for program control. On the one hand, it can improve the glue application accuracy of the workpiece when the workpiece is deformed, which is beneficial to improving the glue application quality of the glue application device, and can reduce the rigid collision between the traction component and the workpiece, reducing damage to the workpiece. On the other hand, without the need for program control, it can reduce programming costs, thereby reducing glue application costs, and can improve the applicability of the glue application device, making the glue application device adaptable to workpieces with different shapes or different degrees of deformation, which is beneficial to improving the flexibility of the glue application device.

[0006] In some embodiments, the adhesive applicator further includes a first detection element; the first detection element is disposed on the first mounting base, and the first detection element is used to detect the position of the movable seat relative to the first mounting base in the first direction.

[0007] In the above technical solution, a first detection element is provided on the first mounting base. The first detection element can detect the position of the movable seat relative to the first mounting base in the first direction, thereby obtaining the position information of the glue applicator driven by the traction element to float in the first direction, so as to provide feedback and alarm processing when the floating range of the glue applicator is too large.

[0008] In some embodiments, a limiting structure is provided between the first mounting base and the movable base, the limiting structure being configured to limit the range of movement of the movable base in the first direction.

[0009] In the above technical solution, a limiting structure is provided between the first mounting base and the movable base. The limiting structure can limit the range of movement of the movable base relative to the first mounting base in the first direction, thereby limiting the range of movement of the movable base relative to the first mounting base in the first direction and helping to alleviate the phenomenon of overtravel of the movable base in the first direction.

[0010] In some embodiments, the limiting structure includes at least two first limiting members; at least two first limiting members are disposed on the first mounting base, and the first limiting members are disposed on both sides of the movable base along the first direction. The first limiting members are used for the movable base to abut against, so as to limit the range of movement of the movable base in the first direction.

[0011] In the above technical solution, the limiting structure includes at least two first limiting members disposed on the first mounting base, and the movable seat is provided with first limiting members on both sides in the first direction, so that when the movable seat moves relative to the first mounting base in the first direction, it can abut against one of the first limiting members, thereby limiting the movement range of the movable seat in the first direction through at least two first limiting members. The structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0012] In some embodiments, at least one of the first limiting members is adjustablely positioned on the first mounting base along the first direction.

[0013] In the above technical solution, by setting the first limiting member to be adjustable in position on the first mounting base in the first direction, the distance between the two first limiting members in the first direction can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the first limiting member. This allows the range of movement of the movable seat relative to the first mounting base in the first direction to be adjusted according to actual usage needs, which is beneficial to expanding the application range of the adhesive applicator.

[0014] In some embodiments, the movable seat is provided with a second limiting member for abutting against the first limiting member. The second limiting member is provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the first limiting member. The second limiting member is provided with a guide hole extending along the first direction, and the first limiting member is inserted into the guide hole along the first direction.

[0015] In the above technical solution, the movable seat is also provided with a second limiting member for the first limiting member to abut against. The second limiting member is provided with a guide hole extending along the first direction, and the first limiting member is inserted into the guide hole along the first direction. Thus, while the first limiting member and the second limiting member cooperate to limit the range of movement of the movable seat relative to the first mounting seat along the first direction, they can also play a certain guiding role for the movable seat, so as to improve the stability of the movable seat moving along the first direction.

[0016] In some embodiments, the guide hole is a blind hole, and along the first direction, the bottom surface of the guide hole is used to abut against the first limiting member.

[0017] In the above technical solution, by setting the guide hole as a blind hole and using the bottom surface of the guide hole for the first limiting member to abut against, the first limiting member inserted in the guide hole can restrict the movable seat from continuing to move in the first direction when it abuts against the bottom surface of the guide hole, so as to guide and limit the movable seat. The structure is simple and has high stability.

[0018] In some embodiments, the first limiting member is provided with an abutment portion, and the limiting structure further includes a first elastic member, the first elastic member being provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the first limiting member, and the first elastic member being sleeved on the outside of the first limiting member; wherein, along the first direction, the two ends of the first elastic member abut against the abutment portion and the bottom surface of the guide hole, respectively.

[0019] In the above technical solution, a first elastic member is sleeved on the outer side of the first limiting member, and the two ends of the first elastic member in the first direction respectively abut against the abutment part on the first limiting member and the bottom surface of the guide hole. Thus, the first elastic member can play a certain buffering role between the first limiting member and the second limiting member, so as to reduce the risk of rigid collision between the first limiting member and the second limiting member, and help to improve the service life of the first limiting member and the second limiting member.

[0020] In some embodiments, the movable seat is provided with a roller that rolls into contact with the first mounting seat, and the roller is configured to rotate relative to the movable seat when the movable seat moves relative to the first mounting seat in the first direction.

[0021] In the above technical solution, the movable seat is provided with a roller that rolls with the first mounting seat. The roller can rotate when the movable seat moves relative to the first mounting seat in a first direction, so as to enable the movable seat to move relative to the first mounting seat in a first direction. The adhesive applicator with this structure helps to reduce the friction between the movable seat and the first mounting seat when the movable seat moves relative to the first mounting seat, thereby improving the smoothness of the movable seat moving relative to the first mounting seat in a first direction.

[0022] In some embodiments, the first mounting base is provided with a strip-shaped hole, the length direction of the strip-shaped hole is the first direction, and the roller is rotatably disposed in the strip-shaped hole along the first direction.

[0023] In the above technical solution, by providing a strip-shaped hole arranged along the first direction on the first mounting base, and the roller being rotatably disposed in the strip-shaped hole along the first direction, the strip-shaped hole can provide a rolling track for the roller, thereby guiding and limiting the roller to a certain extent through the strip-shaped hole, so as to improve the stability of the movable seat moving relative to the first mounting base along the first direction.

[0024] In some embodiments, the movable seat is provided with a plurality of the rollers.

[0025] In the above technical solution, by setting multiple rollers on the movable seat that roll in cooperation with the first mounting seat, the stability and smoothness of the movable seat moving relative to the first mounting seat in the first direction can be further improved.

[0026] In some embodiments, along the second direction, the distance between the traction member and the adhesive applicator is D, which satisfies 0mm≤D≤50mm.

[0027] In the above technical solution, by setting the distance between the traction component and the glue applicator in the second direction to less than or equal to 50mm, the phenomenon that the traction effect of the traction component on the glue applicator is poor due to the excessive distance between the traction component and the glue applicator in the second direction is alleviated, thereby improving the effect of the traction component in adjusting the glue applicator trajectory according to the shape of the workpiece.

[0028] In some embodiments, the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0029] In the above technical solution, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other, so that the moving direction of the movable seat and the arrangement direction of the glue applicator and the traction component are perpendicular to each other. This makes it easier for the traction component to drive the movable seat to move along the first direction when it moves along the second direction. This helps to improve the effect of the traction component in adjusting the glue applicator position of the glue applicator in the first direction, and can reduce the phenomenon of jamming between the traction component and the workpiece during the movement of the traction component along the second direction.

[0030] In some embodiments, the traction mechanism further includes a connecting seat; the connecting seat is mounted on the movable seat, the traction member extends along a third direction and is rotatably disposed on the connecting seat about an axis extending along the third direction, the third direction being perpendicular to the plane where the first direction and the second direction intersect.

[0031] In the above technical solution, the traction mechanism is also provided with a connecting seat, which is installed on the movable seat. The traction member is rotatably disposed on the connecting seat about an axis extending in a third direction, so that when the traction member abuts against the workpiece and moves in the second direction, it can also rotate about an axis extending in a third direction, so as to convert the sliding friction between the traction member and the workpiece into rolling friction, thereby reducing the friction between the traction member and the workpiece and reducing the scraping and wear of the workpiece by the traction member.

[0032] In some embodiments, the connecting seat includes a first seat and a second seat; the first seat is mounted on the movable seat; the second seat is movably disposed on the first seat along the third direction, and the traction member is rotatably disposed on the second seat about an axis extending along the third direction.

[0033] In the above technical solution, the connecting seat is provided with a first seat and a second seat. The first seat is mounted on the movable seat, and the second seat is movably disposed on the second seat along a third direction. The traction member is rotatably disposed on the second seat about an axis extending along the third direction. This allows the traction member to rotate about the axis extending along the third direction while also floating relative to the movable seat along the third direction. This reduces the risk of rigid contact or collision between the traction member and the workpiece in the third direction when they come into contact. Consequently, it helps to mitigate the damage to the workpiece when the gluing device applies glue to it.

[0034] In some embodiments, the second seat has a mounting hole at one end in the third direction, and the traction member has a first end and a second end in the third direction, the first end being used to abut against the workpiece; wherein, along the third direction, the second end is inserted into the mounting hole, and the first end is located outside the mounting hole.

[0035] In the above technical solution, by providing a mounting hole at one end of the second body along the third direction, and inserting part of the traction component into the mounting hole, the traction component can be rotatably mounted on the second body around the axis extending along the third direction. The traction mechanism with this structure can improve the structural stability and reliability of the traction component mounted on the second body.

[0036] In some embodiments, a bearing is sleeved on the outer side of the traction member, and the bearing is disposed between the traction member and the wall surface of the mounting hole.

[0037] In the above technical solution, by setting a bearing between the traction component and the wall of the mounting hole, the effect of the traction component rotating relative to the second seat body is improved, thereby alleviating the wear phenomenon between the traction component and the second seat body.

[0038] In some embodiments, along the third direction, the traction member has a first end and a second end relative to each other in the third direction, the first end being used to abut against the workpiece; wherein, the first seat has a limiting portion for the second seat to abut against along the third direction to restrict the movement of the second seat relative to the first seat in the direction from the second end to the first end.

[0039] In the above technical solution, a limiting part is provided on the first seat body. The limiting part allows the second seat body to abut against it in a third direction. Thus, the limiting part can restrict the movement of the second seat body relative to the first seat body in the third direction along the direction from the second end of the traction member to the first end, thereby reducing the risk of the second seat body detaching from the first seat body in the third direction towards the first end of the traction member. This is beneficial to improving the stability and reliability of the traction mechanism.

[0040] In some embodiments, the traction mechanism further includes a second elastic member; the second elastic member is disposed between the first seat and the second seat, and the second elastic member is configured to drive the second seat to abut against the limiting portion along the third direction.

[0041] In the above technical solution, the traction mechanism is further provided with a second elastic element, which is disposed between the first seat and the second seat. This allows the second elastic element to drive the second seat to abut against the limiting part in a third direction, thereby applying an elastic force to the second seat against the limiting part. The traction mechanism with this structure can, on the one hand, automatically reset the second seat to the position where it abuts against the limiting part after floating in a third direction, and on the other hand, while realizing the floating of the traction component in a third direction, it can alleviate the phenomenon of frequent jumping of the traction component in a third direction, thus improving the traction effect of the traction component on the glue applicator.

[0042] In some embodiments, the interior of the first seat has a first hole segment and a second hole segment arranged sequentially along the third direction. The second hole segment penetrates one end of the first seat in the third direction. The diameter of the first hole segment is larger than the diameter of the second hole segment. The hole wall surfaces of the first hole segment and the second hole segment are connected by a stepped surface. A portion of the second seat is located within the first hole segment, and a portion of the second seat is inserted into the second hole segment along the third direction. The first end is located on the side of the second hole segment opposite to the first hole segment in the third direction. The stepped surface is the limiting portion.

[0043] In the above technical solution, by accommodating the second seat body within the first and second hole segments of the first seat body, with the second hole segment penetrating one end of the first seat body in a third direction and the diameter of the second hole segment being smaller than that of the first hole segment, a stepped surface connecting the hole wall surfaces of the first and second hole segments forms a limiting part for the second seat body to abut against. The traction mechanism with this structure can accommodate the second seat body within the first seat body, which helps to save space occupied by the traction mechanism. On the other hand, the stepped surface formed between the first and second hole segments restricts the second seat body from detaching from the first seat body. The structure is simple and easy to implement and assemble.

[0044] In some embodiments, the second seat body has a guide post protruding from one end of the third direction away from the first end, the guide post extending along the third direction, and the second elastic member sleeved on the outside of the guide post; wherein, along the third direction, one end of the second elastic member abuts against the second seat body, and the other end abuts against the bottom surface of the hole of the first hole segment.

[0045] In the above technical solution, a guide post is also provided at one end of the second seat body that is away from the first end of the traction member in the third direction. By sleeved the second elastic member on the outside of the guide post, and with the two ends of the second elastic member abutting against the bottom surface of the hole of the second seat body and the first hole section respectively, on the one hand, the assembly difficulty of the second elastic member can be reduced, which is conducive to the second elastic member applying elastic force against the limiting part to the second seat body. On the other hand, when the second elastic member is compressed, it can play a guiding role for the second elastic member, so as to reduce the phenomenon of radial bending deformation of the second elastic member, thereby improving the stability of the second elastic member during the compression process, so as to realize that the second elastic member can be stably compressed in the third direction.

[0046] In some embodiments, a first through hole is provided on the bottom surface of the first hole segment, the first through hole penetrates one end of the first base body away from the first end along the third direction, and the guide post passes through the first through hole.

[0047] In the above technical solution, by setting a first through hole through the first seat body on the bottom surface of the first hole section, the guide post can be inserted into the first through hole along the third direction. On the one hand, this facilitates the movement of the second seat body in the third direction within the first seat body, thereby reducing the phenomenon of the second seat body being restricted by the guide post when moving in the third direction. It also allows the entire second elastic member to be sleeved on the outside of the guide post, thereby further reducing the phenomenon of radial bending deformation of the second elastic member. On the other hand, the cooperation between the guide post and the first through hole can also guide the movement of the second seat body in the third direction, thereby improving the stability of the second seat body relative to the first seat body in the third direction.

[0048] In some embodiments, the adhesive applicator further includes a second detection element; the second detection element is disposed on the movable seat and is used to detect the position of the traction member relative to the movable seat in the third direction.

[0049] In the above technical solution, the glue application device is also equipped with a second detection element, which can detect the position information of the traction component relative to the movable seat in the third direction, so as to provide feedback and alarm processing when the traction component floats too far in the third direction.

[0050] In some embodiments, the traction member is made of an insulating material; or, the outer surface of the traction member is coated with an insulating layer.

[0051] In the above technical solution, the traction component is made of insulating material or the outer surface of the traction component is coated with an insulating layer to reduce the risk of short circuit between the traction component and the workpiece.

[0052] In some embodiments, the adhesive applicator further includes an initial positioning mechanism; the initial positioning mechanism is disposed on the first mounting base and configured to position the movable seat in an initial position in the first direction.

[0053] In the above technical solution, the glue application device is also provided with an initial positioning mechanism. The initial positioning mechanism is set on the first mounting base. The initial positioning mechanism can position the movable seat in the initial position in the first direction, so that when the glue application device applies glue to the workpiece, the glue application head can be positioned in the initial position in the first direction, which is beneficial to improving the glue application accuracy of the glue application device.

[0054] In some embodiments, the movable seat is provided with a positioning groove; the initial positioning mechanism includes a positioning member, which is movably disposed on the first mounting seat along a third direction, and the positioning member is configured to position the movable seat at the initial position when inserted into the positioning groove along the third direction, wherein the third direction is perpendicular to the plane where the first direction and the second direction intersect.

[0055] In the above technical solution, the movable seat is provided with a positioning groove, and the initial positioning mechanism includes a positioning member. The positioning member can move relative to the first mounting seat in a third direction so that after the positioning member is inserted into the positioning groove of the movable seat, it can position the movable seat in the initial position. After the positioning member is removed from the positioning groove of the movable seat, it allows the movable seat to move relative to the first mounting seat in a first direction, so as to realize that the movable seat is positioned in the initial position in the first direction. The structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0056] In some embodiments, the initial positioning mechanism further includes a driving member; the driving member is disposed on the first mounting base, and the driving member is used to drive the positioning member to move along the third direction, so that the positioning member is inserted into or removed from the positioning slot.

[0057] In the above technical solution, the initial positioning mechanism is also provided with a driving component, which can drive the positioning component to move relative to the first mounting base in a third direction, so that the positioning component can be inserted into or removed from the positioning groove, which is beneficial to improving the automation level of the glue application device.

[0058] In some embodiments, the initial positioning mechanism further includes a third detection element; the third detection element is disposed on the first mounting base and configured to detect the position of the positioning element relative to the first mounting base in the third direction, and the drive element is responsive to the third detection element.

[0059] In the above technical solution, the initial positioning mechanism is also provided with a third detection component. The third detection component can detect the position of the positioning component relative to the first mounting base in the third direction to obtain the position information of the positioning component inserting or exiting the positioning slot, so as to control the start or stop of the driving component.

[0060] In some embodiments, a fixed seat is provided on the movable seat, the fixed seat is fixed to the movable seat, and the fixed seat is provided with a second through hole and a third through hole arranged at intervals along the second direction; wherein, the glue applicator passes through the second through hole, and the traction member passes through the third through hole.

[0061] In the above technical solution, a fixed seat is connected to the movable seat. By setting a second through hole and a third through hole arranged at intervals along the second direction on the fixed seat, and having the glue applicator and the traction component pass through the second through hole and the third through hole respectively, the suspended parts of the glue applicator and the traction component are further stabilized, thereby improving the stability of the glue applicator and the traction component set on the movable seat and helping to reduce the risk of the glue applicator and the traction component shaking during use.

[0062] Secondly, embodiments of this application also provide an adhesive application device, including an actuator and the aforementioned adhesive application device; the actuator is connected to the first mounting base, and the actuator is configured to drive the adhesive application device to move.

[0063] In the above technical solution, by connecting the first mounting base of the glue applicator to the actuator, the actuator can drive the glue applicator to move, thereby driving the traction component to move along the second direction, so as to realize the automated glue application to the workpiece.

[0064] In some embodiments, the adhesive application equipment includes a plurality of adhesive application devices, all of which are connected to the execution device.

[0065] In the above technical solution, the actuator of the glue coating equipment is connected to multiple glue coating devices, which enables the actuator to drive multiple glue coating devices to coat the workpiece simultaneously, thereby improving the glue coating efficiency of the glue coating equipment.

[0066] In some embodiments, the adhesive application equipment further includes a base; the base is connected to the actuator, the actuator being configured to drive the base to move; wherein a plurality of adhesive application devices are disposed on the base and arranged along the first direction, and along the first direction, the spacing between each pair of adjacent adhesive application devices is adjustable on the base.

[0067] In the above technical solution, the glue coating equipment is also provided with a base. The glue coating device is connected to the execution device through the base so that the execution device can drive the glue coating device to move. By arranging multiple glue coating devices along the first direction and setting the spacing between each pair of adjacent glue coating devices on the base in the first direction in an adjustable manner, the spacing between multiple glue coating devices in the first direction can be adjusted to meet the glue coating requirements of different workpieces, which is beneficial to improving the flexibility of the glue coating equipment.

[0089] In this embodiment of the application, the battery cell can be a secondary battery, which refers to a battery cell that can be recharged to activate the active materials and continue to be used after the battery cell has been discharged.

[0090] The battery cell can be a lithium-ion battery, sodium-ion battery, sodium-lithium-ion battery, lithium metal battery, sodium metal battery, lithium-sulfur battery, magnesium-ion battery, nickel-metal hydride battery, nickel-cadmium battery, lead-acid battery, etc., and the embodiments of this application are not limited to this.

[0091] As an example, a battery cell can be a cylindrical battery cell, a prismatic battery cell, a pouch battery cell, or a battery cell of other shapes. Prismatic battery cells include, but are not limited to, square battery cells, blade-shaped battery cells, and multi-prismatic batteries, such as hexagonal prismatic batteries.

[0092] The battery mentioned in the embodiments of this application refers to a single physical module comprising one or more battery cells to provide higher voltage and capacity.

[0093] In some embodiments, the battery can be a battery module, and when there are multiple battery cells, the multiple battery cells are arranged and fixed to form a battery module.

[0094] In some embodiments, the battery can be a battery pack, which includes a housing and individual battery cells, with the individual battery cells or battery modules housed within the housing.

[0095] In some embodiments, the housing may be part of the vehicle's chassis structure. For example, a portion of the housing may be at least a part of the vehicle's floor, or a portion of the housing may be at least a part of the vehicle's crossbeams and longitudinal beams.

[0096] In some embodiments, the battery can be an energy storage device. Energy storage devices include energy storage containers, energy storage cabinets, etc.

[0097] Batteries possess outstanding advantages such as high energy density, low environmental pollution, high power density, long service life, wide applicability, and low self-discharge coefficient, making them an important component of today's new energy development. A battery typically consists of a casing and multiple battery cells housed within it. These battery cells are stacked within the casing, and thermal management components are installed between the cells to manage their temperature.

[0098] In the battery manufacturing process, it is often necessary to apply adhesive to some battery components to complete the production and assembly of the battery. For example, during the battery assembly process, it is necessary to bond the battery cells and thermal management components together to improve the stability of the battery cells and thermal management components assembled in the casing. This requires applying adhesive between the battery cells and thermal management components. However, in actual production, due to manufacturing tolerances of the thermal management components, or the pressure caused by stacking the thermal management components with the battery cells, different thermal management components may have different bending deformations. This can cause the adhesive application device, driven by the robot, to have problems with incomplete or poor adhesive application along the original adhesive application trajectory. As a result, the adhesive application quality of the workpiece is poor, which is not conducive to the subsequent assembly and production of the battery.

[0099] Based on the above considerations, in order to solve the problems of incomplete glue application or poor glue application accuracy in glue application devices, this application provides a glue application device, which includes a first mounting base, a movable base, a glue application mechanism, and a traction mechanism. The movable base is movably disposed on the first mounting base along a first direction. The glue application mechanism is disposed on the movable base and includes a glue application head. The traction mechanism is disposed on the movable base and includes a traction member. The traction member and the glue application head are arranged along a second direction. The traction member is configured to abut against the workpiece and, when the first mounting base moves along the second direction, can drive the movable base to move along the first direction to adjust the position of the glue application head in the first direction. The first and second directions intersect.

[0100] In this type of adhesive applicator, the applicator is provided with a first mounting base and a movable base. The movable base is movably mounted on the first mounting base along a first direction, and both the adhesive applicator and the traction mechanism are mounted on the movable base. The adhesive applicator head of the adhesive applicator and the traction component of the traction mechanism are arranged along a second direction. The traction component is used to abut against the workpiece, so that when the first mounting base moves along the second direction, the traction component can follow the trajectory of the workpiece and drive the movable base to move in the first direction. This allows the adhesive applicator head to adjust its position in the first direction. When the workpiece has an irregular shape or is deformed, the traction component of the traction mechanism can automatically adjust the adhesive applicator head's trajectory according to the workpiece shape without the need for program control. This improves the adhesive applicator accuracy when the workpiece is deformed, thus improving the adhesive applicator quality and reducing rigid collisions between the traction component and the workpiece, minimizing damage. Furthermore, the absence of program control reduces programming costs, thereby lowering the adhesive applicator cost. It also expands the applicability of the applicator, making it suitable for workpieces with different shapes or degrees of deformation, thus enhancing the flexibility of the applicator.

[0101] This application provides a glue coating device and glue coating equipment, which can improve the problem that glue coating devices in the production line are prone to incomplete glue coating or poor glue coating accuracy during use, resulting in poor glue coating quality. The specific structure of the glue coating device and glue coating equipment will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0102] According to some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an adhesive application device 1000 provided in some embodiments of this application. This application provides an adhesive application device 1000, which includes an actuator (not shown) and an adhesive application device 100. The adhesive application device 100 is used to apply adhesive to a workpiece. The actuator is connected to the adhesive application device 100 and is configured to drive the adhesive application device 100 to move.

[0103] For example, the structure of the actuator can be various, such as a four-axis robot, a six-axis robot, or a three-axis gantry.

[0104] Similarly, the adhesive application device 100 serves to apply adhesive to the workpiece. The structure of the adhesive application device 100 can also be varied. According to some embodiments of this application, see [reference needed]. Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the adhesive applicator 100 provided in some embodiments of this application. Figure 3 This is a left view of the adhesive applicator 100 provided in some embodiments of this application. Figure 4 This is an axonometric view of the adhesive applicator 100 provided in some embodiments of this application. Figure 5 This is a partial structural schematic diagram of an adhesive applicator 100 provided in some embodiments of this application. This application provides an adhesive applicator 100, which includes a first mounting base 10, a movable base 20, an adhesive applicator 30, and a traction mechanism 40. The movable base 20 is movably disposed on the first mounting base 10 along a first direction X. The adhesive applicator 30 is disposed on the movable base 20 and includes an adhesive applicator head 31. The traction mechanism 40 is disposed on the movable base 20 and includes a traction member 41. The traction member 41 and the adhesive applicator head 31 are arranged along a second direction Y. The traction member 41 is configured to abut against a workpiece and, when the first mounting base 10 moves along the second direction Y, can drive the movable base 20 to move along the first direction X to adjust the position of the adhesive applicator head 31 in the first direction X. The first direction X and the second direction Y intersect.

[0105] The movable seat 20 is movably disposed on the first mounting seat 10 along the first direction X, and the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31 are arranged along the second direction Y. This allows the traction member 41 to move according to the glue application trajectory of the workpiece when it comes into contact with the workpiece to be glued. This allows the movable seat 20 to move in the first direction X and adjust the position of the glue applicator 31 in the first direction X, so that the glue applicator 31 can apply glue according to the actual glue application trajectory of the workpiece to be glued. For example, when the glue applicator 100 applies glue between the battery cell and the thermal management component, the traction member 41 can be inserted between the thermal management component and the battery cell, so that the traction member 41 can move following the shape of the thermal management component.

[0106] Optionally, the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31 are arranged along the second direction Y. This arrangement can be either abutting each other along the second direction Y, or the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31 can be spaced apart along the second direction Y. For example, in... Figure 3 In this configuration, the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31 are arranged at intervals along the second direction Y, so that there is a gap between the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31 in the second direction Y.

[0107] The first direction X is the direction of movement of the movable seat 20 relative to the first mounting seat 10, and the second direction Y is the direction of movement of the first mounting seat 10 driven by the actuator. The first direction X and the second direction Y intersect, that is, the direction of movement of the movable seat 20 relative to the first mounting seat 10 and the direction of movement of the first mounting seat 10 driven by the actuator are set at an angle. The first direction X and the second direction Y can be set at an acute angle or they can be perpendicular to each other. For example, in Figure 2 In the diagram, the first direction X and the second direction Y are perpendicular to each other.

[0108] For example, both the applicator head 31 and the traction member 41 extend along a third direction Z, which is perpendicular to the first direction X and the second direction Y.

[0109] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the first mounting base 10 may include a first plate 11 and a second plate 12 connected to each other, and the first plate 11 and the second plate 12 are perpendicular to each other to form an "L" shape. The thickness direction of the first plate 11 is consistent with the second direction Y, and the thickness direction of the second plate 12 is consistent with the third direction Z. The first plate 11 is used to connect with an execution device such as a robot, so that the execution device can drive the first mounting base 10 to move along the second direction Y, thereby realizing the application of glue to the workpiece. The movable seat 20 is disposed on the second plate 12, and the movable seat 20 is located on the side of the second plate 12 facing the first plate 11 in the third direction Z. Along the third direction Z, the glue application head 31 and the traction member 41 are both inserted into the second plate 12, and the end of the glue application head 31 used for glue application and the end of the traction member 41 used for contacting the workpiece both extend out of the second plate 12 on the side away from the movable seat 20.

[0110] It should be noted that the traction component 41 is used to abut against the workpiece when the glue application head 31 applies glue. Figure 3 In the third direction Z, the length of the portion of the traction member 41 extending from the side of the second plate 12 away from the movable seat 20 is greater than the length of the portion of the glue applicator 31 extending from the side of the second plate 12 away from the movable seat 20. That is, the end of the traction member 41 used to abut against the workpiece is farther away from the second plate 12 in the third direction Z than the end of the glue applicator 31 used to apply glue to the workpiece.

[0111] In other embodiments, the first mounting base 10 may also include only the second plate 12, or the first plate 11 and the second plate 12 may be connected to each other to form a "T" shaped structure, etc.

[0112] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the movable seat 20 may include a third plate 21 and a fourth plate 22 connected to each other, and the third plate 21 and the fourth plate 22 are perpendicular to each other to form an "L" shape. The thickness direction of the third plate 21 is consistent with the second direction Y, that is, the third plate 21 of the movable seat 20 is parallel to the first plate 11 of the first mounting seat 10. The thickness direction of the fourth plate 22 is consistent with the third direction Z, that is, the fourth plate 22 of the movable seat 20 is parallel to the second plate 12 of the first mounting seat 10. The glue application mechanism 30 and the traction mechanism 40 are both disposed on the fourth plate 22. Along the third direction Z, the end of the glue application head 31 used for glue application and the end of the traction member 41 used for contacting the workpiece are both located on the side of the fourth plate 22 away from the third plate 21.

[0113] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the movable seat 20 may only include the fourth plate 22, or the third plate 21 and the fourth plate 22 may be connected to each other to form a "T" shaped structure, etc.

[0114] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the glue application mechanism 30 also includes a delivery pipe 32, a dispensing valve 33, and a pressure regulating component 34. The delivery pipe 32 is connected to the glue application head 31 and is configured to supply glue to the glue application head 31. The dispensing valve 33 is mounted on the fourth plate 22 of the movable seat 20 and connects the glue application head 31 and the delivery pipe 32. The dispensing valve 33 is configured to connect or disconnect the glue application head 31 and the delivery pipe 32. The pressure regulating component 34 is disposed on the delivery pipe 32 and is configured to regulate the pressure inside the delivery pipe 32 to regulate the speed at which the delivery pipe 32 conveys the glue. Along the third direction Z, the delivery pipe 32, the dispensing valve 33, and the pressure regulating component 34 are all on the side of the fourth plate 22 facing the third plate 21. The glue application head 31 is connected to the dispensing valve 33 and extends through the fourth plate 22 along the third direction Z, extending out of the fourth plate 22 on the side opposite to the delivery pipe 32. The specific structure of the dispensing valve 33 can be found in the relevant technology, and will not be described in detail here.

[0115] For example, the pressure regulator 34 can be of various types, such as a capacitive pressure transmitter, a diffused silicon pressure transmitter, a ceramic pressure transmitter, or a strain gauge pressure transmitter.

[0116] Optionally, a fastener 13 is mounted on the first plate 11 of the first mounting base 10. The fastener 13 has a fixing hole 131 through which the conveying pipe 32 passes. The fixing hole 131 extends through the fastener 13 in the third direction Z. The conveying pipe 32 is clearance-fitted with the wall surface of the fixing hole 131 to further stabilize the conveying pipe 32 and reduce the shaking of the conveying pipe 32 when the gluing device 100 applies glue to the workpiece.

[0117] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the adhesive applicator 100 may further include a protective cover 50, which is connected to the second plate 12 of the first mounting base 10. The protective cover 50 covers the side of the second plate 12 facing away from the movable base 20 in the third direction Z. The protective cover 50 has a channel for the adhesive applicator 31 and the traction member 41 to pass through. On the one hand, the protective cover 50 can protect the side of the second plate 12 of the first mounting base 10 facing away from the movable base 20 and reduce the impact of other components on the adhesive applicator 31 and the traction member 41. On the other hand, the protective cover 50 can catch impurities or bolts that fall from the first mounting base 10 and the movable base 20, thereby reducing the risk of impurities or bolts falling into the workpiece after they come loose.

[0118] The glue application device 100 is provided with a first mounting base 10 and a movable base 20. The movable base 20 is movably mounted on the first mounting base 10 along a first direction X. The glue application mechanism 30 and the traction mechanism 40 are both mounted on the movable base 20. The glue application head 31 of the glue application mechanism 30 and the traction member 41 of the traction mechanism 40 are arranged along a second direction Y. The traction member 41 is used to abut against the workpiece, so that when the first mounting base 10 moves along the second direction Y, the traction member 41 can follow the trajectory of the workpiece and drive the movable base 20 to move in the first direction X. This allows adjustment of the glue application position of the glue application head 31 in the first direction X, making it suitable for workpieces with irregular shapes or deformations. The traction mechanism 40 can automatically adjust the coating trajectory of the coating head 31 according to the shape of the workpiece through the traction component 41, without the need for program control. This improves the coating accuracy of the workpiece when it is deformed, which is beneficial to improving the coating quality of the coating device 100. It also reduces the rigid collision between the traction component 41 and the workpiece, thus reducing damage to the workpiece. Furthermore, the absence of program control reduces programming costs, thereby lowering coating costs. It also expands the applicability of the coating device 100, making it adaptable to workpieces with different shapes or degrees of deformation, which improves the flexibility of the coating device 100.

[0119] According to some embodiments of this application, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 Please refer to further details. Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a front view of an adhesive applicator 100 provided in some embodiments of this application. The adhesive applicator 100 also includes a first detection element 60, which is disposed on a first mounting base 10. The first detection element 60 is used to detect the position of the movable seat 20 relative to the first mounting base 10 in a first direction X.

[0120] In this embodiment, the first detection element 60 is mounted on the first plate 11 of the first mounting base 10, and along the first direction X, the first detection element 60 is located on one side of the third plate 21 of the movable base 20 to detect the position of the movable base 20 in the first direction X. Of course, in other embodiments, the first detection element 60 may also be mounted on the second plate 12 of the first mounting base 10, so that the first detection element 60 is located on one side of the fourth plate 22 of the movable base 20 in the first direction X.

[0121] For example, the glue application device 100 is provided with two first detection elements 60, which are located on both sides of the third plate 21 of the movable seat 20 in the first direction X, so as to improve the accuracy of detecting the position of the movable seat 20 in the first direction X.

[0122] Optionally, the structure of the first detection element 60 can be various, such as a radar ranging sensor, an ultrasonic ranging sensor, a laser ranging sensor, or an infrared ranging sensor.

[0123] The first mounting base 10 is provided with a first detection element 60. The first detection element 60 can detect the position of the movable base 20 relative to the first mounting base 10 in the first direction X, thereby obtaining the position information of the glue applicator 31 driven by the traction member 41 floating in the first direction X, so as to provide feedback and alarm processing when the floating range of the glue applicator 31 is too large.

[0124] According to some embodiments of this application, a limiting structure is provided between the first mounting base 10 and the movable base 20, and the limiting structure is configured to limit the range of movement of the movable base 20 in the first direction X.

[0125] The limiting structure is configured to restrict the range of movement of the movable seat 20 in the first direction X. In other words, the limiting structure can limit the movement distance of the movable seat 20 relative to the first mounting seat 10 in the first direction X.

[0126] A limiting structure is provided between the first mounting base 10 and the movable base 20. The limiting structure can limit the range of movement of the movable base 20 relative to the first mounting base 10 in the first direction X, thereby limiting the range of movement of the movable base 20 relative to the first mounting base 10 in the first direction X, which helps to alleviate the phenomenon of overtravel of the movable base 20 in the first direction X.

[0127] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the limiting structure includes at least two first limiting members 14, both of which are disposed on the first mounting base 10. Along the first direction X, the movable base 20 is provided with first limiting members 14 on both sides. The first limiting members 14 are used for the movable base 20 to abut against, so as to limit the range of movement of the movable base 20 in the first direction X.

[0128] In this configuration, a first limiting member 14 is provided on both sides of the movable seat 20 along the first direction X. That is, at least one first limiting member 14 is provided on both sides of the movable seat 20 along the first direction X. In other words, at least two first limiting members 14 are structured to be spaced apart on the first mounting base 10 along the first direction X. At least a portion of the movable seat 20 is disposed between the two first limiting members 14 spaced apart along the first direction X, so that the first limiting members 14 can be abutted against by the movable seat 20.

[0129] For example, in Figure 2In this embodiment, the first mounting base 10 is provided with two first limiting members 14, which are spaced apart along the first direction X, and the movable seat 20 is located between the two first limiting members 14 in the first direction X. Of course, in other embodiments, the number of first limiting members 14 provided on the first mounting base 10 may also be three, four, or five, etc.

[0130] Optionally, see Figure 2 As shown, the first mounting base 10 is provided with two reinforcing plates 15, which are arranged at intervals along the first direction X. The movable base 20 is located between the two reinforcing plates 15. Along the third direction Z, the reinforcing plates 15 are located on the side of the first plate 11 facing the movable base 20. The reinforcing plates 15 connect the first plate 11 and the second plate 12 to improve the connection stability between the first plate 11 and the second plate 12.

[0131] For example, the first limiting member 14 is mounted on the reinforcing plate 15, and each first limiting member 14 is correspondingly set to one reinforcing plate 15.

[0132] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the limiting structure can also have other structures. For example, the first mounting base 10 is provided with a limiting groove extending along the first direction X, and the movable base 20 is provided with a limiting protrusion inserted into the limiting groove. The two opposite sides of the limiting groove in the first direction X are used for the limiting protrusion to abut against, thereby limiting the range of movement of the movable base 20 in the first direction X. Of course, the limiting groove can also be provided on the movable base 20, and correspondingly, the limiting protrusion can be provided on the first mounting base 10.

[0133] The limiting structure includes at least two first limiting members 14 disposed on the first mounting base 10, and the movable base 20 is provided with first limiting members 14 on both sides in the first direction X, so that when the movable base 20 moves relative to the first mounting base 10 in the first direction X, it can abut against one of the first limiting members 14, thereby limiting the movement range of the movable base 20 in the first direction X by at least two first limiting members 14. The structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0134] According to some embodiments of this application, see Figure 2 As shown, at least one first limiting member 14 is adjustablely disposed on the first mounting base 10 along the first direction X.

[0135] In this configuration, at least one first limiting member 14 is adjustablely disposed on the first mounting base 10 along the first direction X. That is, one of the two first limiting members 14 may be adjustablely disposed on the first mounting base 10 along the first direction X, or both first limiting members 14 may be adjustablely disposed on the first mounting base 10 along the first direction X.

[0136] For example, both first limiting members 14 are adjustablely positioned on the first mounting base 10 along the first direction X.

[0137] For example, the first limiting member 14 extends along the first direction X, and the first limiting member 14 is screwed to the reinforcing plate 15 on the first mounting base 10 along the first direction X, that is, the first limiting member 14 is threadedly connected to the reinforcing plate 15, so that the position of the first limiting member 14 in the first direction X can be adjusted by rotating the first limiting member 14.

[0138] By setting the first limiting member 14 to be adjustable in position on the first mounting base 10 in the first direction X, the distance between the two first limiting members 14 in the first direction X can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the first limiting member 14. This allows the range of movement of the movable base 20 relative to the first mounting base 10 in the first direction X to be adjusted according to actual usage requirements, which is beneficial to expanding the application range of the adhesive applicator 100.

[0139] According to some embodiments of this application, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 Please refer to further details. Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram showing the connection between the first limiting member 14 and the second limiting member 23 of the adhesive applicator 100 provided in some embodiments of this application. The movable seat 20 is provided with a second limiting member 23 for abutting against the first limiting member 14. The second limiting member 23 corresponds to the first limiting member 14 in a one-to-one manner. The second limiting member 23 is provided with a guide hole 231 extending along a first direction X, and the first limiting member 14 is inserted into the guide hole 231 along the first direction X.

[0140] The second limiting member 23 is installed on the fourth plate 22 of the movable seat 20. The movable seat 20 is provided with two second limiting members 23, which are arranged at intervals along the first direction X. Each second limiting member 23 is abutted by a first limiting member 14, so that the first limiting member 14 and the second limiting member 23 cooperate to limit the range of movement of the movable seat 20 relative to the first mounting seat 10 in the first direction X.

[0141] The movable seat 20 is also provided with a second limiting member 23 for the first limiting member 14 to abut against. The second limiting member 23 is provided with a guide hole 231 extending along the first direction X, and the first limiting member 14 is inserted into the guide hole 231 along the first direction X. Thus, while the first limiting member 14 and the second limiting member 23 cooperate to limit the range of movement of the movable seat 20 relative to the first mounting seat 10 along the first direction X, they can also play a certain guiding role for the movable seat 20, so as to improve the stability of the movable seat 20 moving along the first direction X.

[0142] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the guide hole 231 is a blind hole, and along the first direction X, the bottom surface of the guide hole 231 is used to abut against the first limiting member 14.

[0143] The guide hole 231 is located on the side of the second limiting member 23 facing the reinforcing plate 15. A portion of the first limiting member 14 is inserted into the guide hole 231, allowing the bottom surface of the guide hole 231 to be abutted by the first limiting member 14 when the movable seat 20 moves relative to the first mounting base 10, thereby limiting the range of movement of the movable seat 20 relative to the first mounting base 10 in the first direction X. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the guide hole 231 can be a through hole penetrating the second limiting member 23 along the first direction X. When the guide hole 231 is a through hole penetrating the second limiting member 23 along the first direction X, the side of the second limiting member 23 facing the reinforcing plate 15 in the first direction X is used for the first limiting member 14 to abut against, thereby limiting the range of movement of the movable seat 20 relative to the first mounting base 10 in the first direction X.

[0144] By setting the guide hole 231 as a blind hole and using the bottom surface of the guide hole 231 for the first limiting member 14 to abut against, the first limiting member 14 inserted in the guide hole 231 can restrict the movable seat 20 from continuing to move along the first direction X when it abuts against the bottom surface of the guide hole 231, so as to guide and limit the movable seat 20. The structure is simple and has high stability.

[0145] In some embodiments, please continue to see Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the first limiting member 14 is provided with an abutment part 141. The limiting structure may also include a first elastic member 70. The first elastic member 70 is provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the first limiting member 14, and the first elastic member 70 is sleeved on the outside of the first limiting member 14. Along the first direction X, the two ends of the first elastic member 70 abut against the abutment part 141 and the bottom surface of the guide hole 231, respectively.

[0146] For example, the abutment portion 141 is a nut screwed onto the outer peripheral surface of the first limiting member 14. Of course, in other embodiments, the abutment portion 141 may also be a protrusion protruding from the outer peripheral surface of the first limiting member 14.

[0147] For example, the first elastic element 70 is a spring sleeved on the outside of the first limiting member 14. Of course, in other embodiments, the first elastic element 70 may also be an elastic rubber or a sheet sleeved on the outside of the first limiting member 14.

[0148] The outer side of the first limiting member 14 is fitted with a first elastic member 70, and the two ends of the first elastic member 70 in the first direction X respectively abut against the abutment part 141 and the bottom surface of the guide hole 231 on the first limiting member 14. Thus, the first elastic member 70 can play a certain buffering role between the first limiting member 14 and the second limiting member 23, so as to reduce the risk of rigid collision between the first limiting member 14 and the second limiting member 23, which is conducive to improving the service life of the first limiting member 14 and the second limiting member 23.

[0149] According to some embodiments of this application, see Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the movable seat 20 is provided with a roller 24, which is in rolling engagement with the first mounting seat 10. The roller 24 is configured to rotate relative to the movable seat 20 when the movable seat 20 moves relative to the first mounting seat 10 in the first direction X.

[0150] For example, in Figure 5 In this embodiment, the roller 24 is disposed on the fourth plate 22. Of course, in other embodiments, the roller 24 may also be disposed on the third plate 21.

[0151] Optionally, the roller 24 disposed on the movable seat 20 can be one or more, for example, in Figure 5 In the middle, the movable seat 20 is provided with six rollers 24, the fourth plate 22 is provided with two rollers 24 at each end in the second direction Y, and the fourth plate 22 is provided with two rollers 24 on the side of the third direction Z away from the third plate 21.

[0152] The movable seat 20 is provided with a roller 24 that rolls with the first mounting seat 10. The roller 24 can rotate when the movable seat 20 moves relative to the first mounting seat 10 in the first direction X, so that the movable seat 20 can move relative to the first mounting seat 10 in the first direction X. The adhesive applicator 100 with this structure helps to reduce the friction between the movable seat 20 and the first mounting seat 10 when the movable seat 20 moves relative to the first mounting seat 10, thereby improving the smoothness of the movement of the movable seat 20 relative to the first mounting seat 10 in the first direction X.

[0153] In some embodiments, please continue to see Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first mounting base 10 is provided with a strip hole 16, the length direction of the strip hole 16 is the first direction X, and the roller 24 is rotatably disposed in the strip hole 16 along the first direction X.

[0154] The length direction of the strip hole 16 is the first direction X, that is, the long axis of the strip hole 16 extends along the first direction X.

[0155] For example, a connecting plate 17 is also connected to the second plate 12 of the first mounting base 10, and the connecting plate 17 is spaced apart from the first plate 11 along the second direction Y. The first plate 11 has two slotted holes 16, which are spaced apart along the first direction X. Two rollers 24 of the fourth plate 22 of the movable base 20, located at the end near the first plate 11 in the second direction Y, are rotatably disposed within the two slotted holes 16 on the first plate 11. The connecting plate 17 also has two slotted holes 16, which are spaced apart along the first direction X. Two rollers 24 of the fourth plate 22 of the movable base 20, located at the end opposite to the first plate 11 in the second direction Y, are rotatably disposed within the two slotted holes 16 on the connecting plate 17. The second plate 12 is provided with two strip holes 16, which are arranged at intervals along the first direction X. Two rollers 24 on the side of the fourth plate 22 of the movable seat 20 that are close to the second plate 12 in the third direction Z are respectively rotatably disposed in the two strip holes 16 on the second plate 12.

[0156] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the first plate 11 may only have one strip hole 16, and the two rollers 24 of the fourth plate 22 of the movable seat 20 located at the end of the first plate 11 in the second direction Y are both located within the strip hole 16 of the first plate 11. Similarly, the connecting plate 17 may only have one strip hole 16, and the two rollers 24 of the fourth plate 22 of the movable seat 20 located at the end of the first plate 11 in the second direction Y are both located within the strip hole 16 of the connecting plate 17; the second plate 12 may also only have one strip hole 16, and the two rollers 24 of the fourth plate 22 of the movable seat 20 located on the side of the second plate 12 in the third direction Z are both located within the strip hole 16 of the second plate 12.

[0157] By providing a strip-shaped hole 16 arranged along the first direction X on the first mounting base 10, and the roller 24 being rotatably disposed within the strip-shaped hole 16 along the first direction X, the strip-shaped hole 16 can provide a rolling track for the roller 24, thereby guiding and limiting the roller 24 to a certain extent, so as to improve the stability of the movable base 20 moving relative to the first mounting base 10 along the first direction X.

[0158] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 As shown, the movable seat 20 is equipped with multiple rollers 24.

[0159] For example, the movable seat 20 is provided with six rollers 24. Of course, in other embodiments, the number of rollers 24 provided on the movable seat 20 may be one, two, three, four, five, seven or eight, etc.

[0160] By providing multiple rollers 24 on the movable seat 20 that roll in cooperation with the first mounting seat 10, the stability and smoothness of the movable seat 20 moving relative to the first mounting seat 10 along the first direction X can be further improved.

[0161] According to some embodiments of this application, see Figure 3 As shown, along the second direction Y, the distance between the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31 is D, which satisfies 0mm≤D≤50mm.

[0162] The distance between the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31 is D, which is the size of the gap formed between the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31 in the second direction Y. If the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31 abut against each other in the second direction Y, the distance D between the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31 is equal to 0 mm. If the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31 are spaced apart in the second direction Y, the distance D between the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31 is greater than 0 mm.

[0163] For example, the distance D between the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31 can be 0mm, 0.1mm, 0.2mm, 0.5mm, 0.8mm, 1mm, 2mm, 5mm, 8mm, 10mm, 15mm, 20mm, 25mm, 30mm, 35mm, 40mm, 45mm or 50mm, etc.

[0164] By setting the distance between the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31 in the second direction Y to less than or equal to 50mm, the phenomenon that the traction effect of the traction member 41 on the glue applicator 31 is poor due to the excessive distance between the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31 in the second direction Y is alleviated, thereby improving the effect of the traction member 41 in adjusting the glue applicator trajectory of the glue applicator 31 according to the shape of the workpiece.

[0165] According to some embodiments of this application, see Figure 2 As shown, the first direction X is perpendicular to the second direction Y. That is, the direction in which the movable seat 20 moves relative to the first mounting seat 10 is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the traction member 41 and the glue applicator 31. Similarly, the direction in which the movable seat 20 moves relative to the first mounting seat 10 is perpendicular to the direction in which the actuator drives the first mounting seat 10 to move.

[0166] By setting the first direction X and the second direction Y to be perpendicular to each other, the moving direction of the movable seat 20 and the arrangement direction of the glue applicator 31 and the traction member 41 are perpendicular to each other. This allows the traction member 41 to drive the movable seat 20 to move along the first direction X when it moves along the second direction Y. This helps to improve the effect of the traction member 41 in adjusting the glue applicator 31 in the first direction X, and can reduce the phenomenon of jamming between the traction member 41 and the workpiece during the movement of the traction member 41 along the second direction Y.

[0167] According to some embodiments of this application, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 Please refer to further details. Figure 8 , Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a traction mechanism 40 provided in some embodiments of this application. The traction mechanism 40 may further include a connecting seat 42, which is mounted on a movable seat 20. A traction member 41 extends along a third direction Z and is rotatably disposed on the connecting seat 42 about an axis extending along the third direction Z. The third direction Z is perpendicular to the plane where the first direction X and the second direction Y intersect.

[0168] Wherein, the third direction Z is perpendicular to the plane where the first direction X and the second direction Y intersect; that is, the plane defined by the intersection of the first direction X and the second direction Y is perpendicular to the third direction Z. For example, in Figure 2 In the middle, the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z are perpendicular to each other.

[0169] Optionally, the connecting seat 42 is mounted on the fourth plate 22 of the movable seat 20, and the connecting seat 42 is located on the side of the fourth plate 22 facing the third plate 21 in the third direction Z. The connection structure between the connecting seat 42 and the movable seat 20 can be various, such as bolting, welding or bonding.

[0170] The traction member 41 is rotatably disposed on the connecting seat 42 about an axis extending in the third direction Z, that is, the traction member 41 is rotatably disposed on the connecting seat 42 in the circumferential direction.

[0171] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the traction mechanism 40 may only include the traction member 41, that is, the traction member 41 is the traction mechanism 40, and the traction member 41 is fixed on the movable seat 20.

[0172] The traction mechanism 40 is also provided with a connecting seat 42, which is mounted on the movable seat 20. The traction member 41 is rotatably disposed on the connecting seat 42 about an axis extending in the third direction Z. This allows the traction member 41 to rotate about the axis extending in the third direction Z when it comes into contact with the workpiece and moves in the second direction Y. This converts the sliding friction between the traction member 41 and the workpiece into rolling friction, thereby reducing the friction between the traction member 41 and the workpiece and reducing the scraping and wear of the workpiece by the traction member 41.

[0173] According to some embodiments of this application, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 8 Please refer to further details. Figure 9 , Figure 9This is a cross-sectional view of a traction mechanism 40 provided in some embodiments of this application. The connecting seat 42 includes a first seat body 421 and a second seat body 422. The first seat body 421 is mounted on the movable seat 20, and the second seat body 422 is movably disposed on the first seat body 421 along a third direction Z. The traction member 41 is rotatably disposed on the second seat body 422 about an axis extending along the third direction Z.

[0174] The second seat 422 is movably disposed on the first seat 421 along the third direction Z, that is, the second seat 422 can float relative to the movable seat 20 in the third direction Z, so that the traction member 41 can float relative to the movable seat 20 in the third direction Z.

[0175] The traction member 41 is rotatably disposed on the second seat 422 about an axis extending in the third direction Z, that is, the traction member 41 is rotatably connected to the second seat 422 in the circumferential direction.

[0176] The connecting seat 42 is provided with a first seat body 421 and a second seat body 422. The first seat body 421 is mounted on the movable seat 20, and the second seat body 422 is movably disposed on the second seat body 422 along the third direction Z. The traction member 41 is rotatably disposed on the second seat body 422 about the axis extending along the third direction Z. This allows the traction member 41 to rotate about the axis extending along the third direction Z and also allows the traction member 41 to float relative to the movable seat 20 along the third direction Z. This reduces the risk of rigid contact or collision between the traction member 41 and the workpiece in the third direction Z when they come into contact. As a result, it helps to mitigate the damage to the workpiece when the gluing device 100 applies glue to it.

[0177] In some embodiments, see Figure 9 As shown, the second seat 422 has a mounting hole 4221 at one end in the third direction Z. The traction member 41 has a first end 411 and a second end 412 in the third direction Z. The first end 411 is used to abut against the workpiece. Along the third direction Z, the second end 412 is inserted into the mounting hole 4221, and the first end 411 is located outside the mounting hole 4221.

[0178] The mounting hole 4221 is a blind hole located at one end of the second seat 422 in the third direction Z. Along the third direction Z, the second end 412 is inserted into the mounting hole 4221, and the first end 411 is located outside the mounting hole 4221. That is, part of the traction member 41 is rotatably inserted into the mounting hole 4221, and the traction member 41 extends out of the mounting hole 4221 along the third direction Z, so that the end of the traction member 41 inserted into the mounting hole 4221 in the third direction Z is the second end 412, and the end of the traction member 41 extending out of the mounting hole 4221 in the third direction Z is the first end 411.

[0179] By providing a mounting hole 4221 at one end of the second base 422 along the third direction Z, and partially inserting the traction member 41 into the mounting hole 4221, the traction member 41 is rotatably mounted on the second base 422 about an axis extending along the third direction Z. The traction mechanism 40 with this structure can improve the structural stability and reliability of the traction member 41 mounted on the second base 422.

[0180] In some embodiments, please continue to see Figure 9 As shown, a bearing 43 is sleeved on the outer side of the traction member 41, and the bearing 43 is disposed between the traction member 41 and the wall surface of the mounting hole 4221.

[0181] Optionally, the number of bearings 43 disposed between the traction member 41 and the wall of the mounting hole 4221 can be one or more. For example, two bearings 43 are disposed between the traction member 41 and the wall of the mounting hole 4221, with both bearings 43 sleeved on the outside of the traction member 41 and spaced apart along the third direction Z. Of course, in other embodiments, the number of bearings 43 disposed between the traction member 41 and the wall of the mounting hole 4221 can also be three, four, or five, etc.

[0182] By providing a bearing 43 between the traction member 41 and the wall of the mounting hole 4221, the effect of the traction member 41 rotating relative to the second seat 422 is improved, thereby alleviating the wear phenomenon between the traction member 41 and the second seat 422.

[0183] According to some embodiments of this application, see Figure 9 As shown, along the third direction Z, the traction member 41 has a first end 411 and a second end 412 relative to each other in the third direction Z. The first end 411 is used to abut against the workpiece. The first seat 421 has a limiting part 4211, which is used for the second seat 422 to abut against along the third direction Z, so as to limit the movement of the second seat 422 relative to the first seat 421 in the direction from the second end 412 to the first end 411.

[0184] In this context, along the direction from the second end 412 to the first end 411, that is, in the third direction Z, one end of the second seat 422 points to the end of the second seat 422 where the mounting hole 4221 is provided, which is also the direction in which the traction member 41 extends from inside the mounting hole 4221 to outside the mounting hole 4221.

[0185] The limiting part 4211 is used for the second seat 422 to abut against the first seat 421 in the third direction Z to restrict the movement of the second seat 422 relative to the first seat 421 in the direction from the second end 412 to the first end 411. In other words, the limiting part 4211 can provide the second seat 422 to abut against the first seat 422 when the second seat 422 moves relative to the first seat 421 in the third direction Z to prevent the second seat 422 from disengaging from the first seat 421 in the third direction Z from the second end 412 to the first end 411.

[0186] Optionally, the interior of the first seat 421 is formed with a first hole segment 4212 and a second hole segment 4213 arranged sequentially along the third direction Z. The second hole segment 4213 penetrates one end of the first seat 421 in the third direction Z. The second seat 422 is movably inserted into the first hole segment 4212 and the second hole segment 4213 along the third direction Z. The traction member 41 extends out of the second hole segment 4213 away from the first hole segment 4212 along the third direction Z, so that the first end 411 of the traction member 41 is located outside the first seat 421.

[0187] Of course, in other embodiments, the first seat 421 may also be a plate-shaped structure. The first seat 421 is provided with a through hole that passes through both sides of the first seat 421 along the third direction Z. The second seat 422 is movably inserted into the through hole along the third direction Z. The first seat 421 forms a limiting part 4211 on the side of the first seat 421 facing away from the first end 411 in the third direction Z for the second seat 422 to abut against.

[0188] The first seat 421 is provided with a limiting part 4211, which allows the second seat 422 to abut against it in the third direction Z. Thus, the limiting part 4211 can restrict the movement of the second seat 422 relative to the first seat 421 in the third direction Z along the direction from the second end 412 of the traction member 41 to the first end 411, thereby reducing the risk of the second seat 422 detaching from the first seat 421 in the third direction Z towards the first end 411 of the traction member 41. This helps to improve the stability and reliability of the traction mechanism 40.

[0189] According to some embodiments of this application, see Figure 9 As shown, the traction mechanism 40 may further include a second elastic member 44, which is disposed between the first seat 421 and the second seat 422. The second elastic member 44 is configured to drive the second seat 422 to abut against the limiting part 4211 along the third direction Z.

[0190] Along the third direction Z, an elastic element is disposed between the bottom surface of the second seat 422 and the hole of the first hole segment 4212. The elastic element provides elastic force to the second seat 422, allowing the second seat 422 to abut against the limiting part 4211 along the third direction Z. The structure of the elastic element can be various, such as a spring, elastic rubber, or a sheet. For example, in... Figure 9 In this case, the elastic element is a spring.

[0191] The traction mechanism 40 is also provided with a second elastic element 44, which is disposed between the first seat 421 and the second seat 422. This allows the second elastic element 44 to drive the second seat 422 to abut against the limiting part 4211 along the third direction Z, so that the second elastic element 44 can apply an elastic force to the second seat 422 against the limiting part 4211. The traction mechanism 40 with this structure can, on the one hand, realize that the second seat 422 automatically returns to the position where the second seat 422 abuts against the limiting part 4211 after floating along the third direction Z. On the other hand, while realizing the floating of the traction member 41 along the third direction Z, it can alleviate the phenomenon of frequent jumping of the traction member 41 along the third direction Z, thereby improving the traction effect of the traction member 41 on the glue applicator 31.

[0192] According to some embodiments of this application, see Figure 9 As shown, the interior of the first seat 421 has a first hole segment 4212 and a second hole segment 4213 arranged sequentially along the third direction Z. The second hole segment 4213 penetrates one end of the first seat 421 in the third direction Z. The diameter of the first hole segment 4212 is larger than the diameter of the second hole segment 4213. The hole wall surfaces of the first hole segment 4212 and the hole wall surfaces of the second hole segment 4213 are connected by a stepped surface. A portion of the second seat 422 is located within the first hole segment 4212, and a portion of the second seat 422 is inserted into the second hole segment 4213 along the third direction Z. The first end 411 is located on the side of the second hole segment 4213 opposite to the first hole segment 4212 in the third direction Z. The stepped surface is a limiting part 4211.

[0193] The diameter of the first hole segment 4212 is larger than that of the second hole segment 4213. That is, the first hole segment 4212 and the second hole segment 4213 together form a stepped hole structure, and the projection of the second hole segment 4213 on the third direction Z is located inside the first hole segment 4212. In other words, a stepped hole is formed inside the first base body 421.

[0194] The stepped surface is a limiting part 4211, that is, the stepped surface between the first hole section 4212 and the second hole section 4213 can be used for the second seat 422 to abut against, so as to prevent the second seat 422 from disengaging from the second hole section 4213.

[0195] By accommodating the second seat 422 within the first hole segment 4212 and the second hole segment 4213 of the first seat 421, with the second hole segment 4213 penetrating one end of the first seat 421 in the third direction Z and the diameter of the second hole segment 4213 being smaller than the diameter of the first hole segment 4212, a step surface connecting the hole wall surface of the first hole segment 4212 and the hole wall surface of the second hole segment 4213 is formed to create a limiting part 4211 for the second seat 422 to abut against. The traction mechanism 40 with this structure can, on the one hand, accommodate the second seat 422 within the first seat 421, which helps to save space occupied by the traction mechanism 40, and on the other hand, the step surface formed between the first hole segment 4212 and the second hole segment 4213 restricts the second seat 422 from detaching from the first seat 421. The structure is simple and easy to implement and assemble.

[0196] According to some embodiments of this application, see Figure 9 As shown, the second seat 422 has a guide post 4222 protruding from the end opposite to the first end 411 in the third direction Z. The guide post 4222 extends along the third direction Z, and the second elastic member 44 is sleeved on the outside of the guide post 4222. Along the third direction Z, one end of the second elastic member 44 abuts against the second seat 422, and the other end abuts against the bottom surface of the hole in the first hole section 4212.

[0197] Among them, the second base body 422 has a guide post 4222 protruding from the end of the first end 411 in the third direction Z. That is, in the third direction Z, the guide post 4222 protrudes from the end of the second base body 422 that is away from the second base body 422 having the mounting hole 4221.

[0198] The second seat 422 is provided with a guide post 4222 at one end of the third-direction Z that is away from the first end 411 of the traction member 41. By sleeved the second elastic member 44 on the outside of the guide post 4222, and with the two ends of the second elastic member 44 abutting against the bottom surface of the hole of the second seat 422 and the first hole section 4212 respectively, the assembly difficulty of the second elastic member 44 can be reduced, which is conducive to the second elastic member 44 applying the elastic force against the limiting part 4211 to the second seat 422. On the other hand, when the second elastic member 44 is compressed, it can play a guiding role for the second elastic member 44, so as to reduce the phenomenon of radial bending deformation of the second elastic member 44, thereby improving the stability of the second elastic member 44 during the compression process, so as to realize that the second elastic member 44 can be stably compressed along the third-direction Z.

[0199] In some embodiments, see Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, a first through hole 4214 is provided on the bottom surface of the first hole section 4212. The first through hole 4214 penetrates the first base body 421 away from the first end 411 along the third direction Z. The guide post 4222 passes through the first through hole 4214.

[0200] The first through hole 4214 penetrates one end of the first base 421 away from the first end 411 along the third direction Z. That is to say, the first through hole 4214 connects the first hole segment 4212 and the outer side of the first base 421.

[0201] The guide post 4222 is inserted into the first through hole 4214. That is to say, when the second seat 422 moves relative to the first seat 421 in the third direction Z, the guide post 4222 can move in the first through hole 4214 in the third direction Z.

[0202] By providing a first through hole 4214 through the first seat 421 on the bottom surface of the first hole section 4212, the guide post 4222 can be inserted into the first through hole 4214 along the third direction Z. This facilitates the movement of the second seat 422 within the first seat 421 along the third direction Z, reducing the restriction on the movement of the second seat 422 along the third direction Z by the guide post 4222. It also allows the entire second elastic member 44 to be fitted around the outside of the guide post 4222, further reducing the radial bending deformation of the second elastic member 44. Furthermore, the cooperation between the guide post 4222 and the first through hole 4214 can guide the movement of the second seat 422 along the third direction Z, thereby improving the stability of the second seat 422 relative to the first seat 421 along the third direction Z.

[0203] According to some embodiments of this application, see Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, the adhesive applicator 100 may also include a second detection element 80, which is disposed on the movable seat 20. The second detection element 80 is used to detect the position of the traction element 41 relative to the movable seat 20 in the third direction Z.

[0204] The second detection element 80 is mounted on the fourth plate 22 of the movable seat 20 along the third direction Z. The second detection element 80 is located on the side of the first seat 421 of the connecting seat 42 away from the first end 411 of the traction member 41. The second detection element 80 is spaced apart from the connecting seat 42. The second detection element 80 is configured to detect the position of the guide post 4222 in the third direction Z, so as to obtain the position information of the traction member 41 relative to the movable seat 20 in the third direction Z. Of course, in other embodiments, the second detection element 80 may also be mounted on the first seat 421 of the connecting seat 42 of the traction member 41, so that the second detection element 80 can directly detect the position of the traction member 41 relative to the movable seat 20 in the third direction Z.

[0205] For example, the second detection element 80 can be of various types, such as a radar ranging sensor, an ultrasonic ranging sensor, a laser ranging sensor, or an infrared ranging sensor.

[0206] The glue application device 100 is also equipped with a second detection element 80, which can detect the position information of the traction member 41 relative to the movable seat 20 in the third direction Z, so as to provide feedback and alarm processing when the traction member 41 floats too far in the third direction Z.

[0207] According to some embodiments of this application, the traction member 41 is made of an insulating material; or, the outer surface of the traction member 41 is coated with an insulating layer.

[0208] The traction component 41 is made of insulating material, that is, the entire traction component 41 is made of insulating material. For example, the material of the traction component 41 can be rubber, silicone or plastic, etc.

[0209] The outer surface of the traction component 41 is coated with an insulating layer, meaning the traction component 41 has a structure with an insulating layer on its surface. In this embodiment, the material of the traction component 41 can be a metal, such as steel, copper, or an alloy, and the material of the insulating layer can be polyetheretherketone (PEEK) or polyethylene. This structure ensures the structural strength and rigidity of the traction component 41 while achieving a surface-insulated structure.

[0210] The traction component 41 is made of insulating material or the outer surface of the traction component 41 is coated with an insulating layer to reduce the risk of short circuit between the traction component 41 and the workpiece.

[0211] According to some embodiments of this application, see Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the adhesive applicator 100 may further include an initial positioning mechanism 90, which is disposed on the first mounting base 10 and configured to position the movable base 20 in an initial position in the first direction X.

[0212] The initial position refers to the position of the movable seat 20 relative to the first mounting seat 10 in the first direction X before the glue applicator 100 applies glue to different workpieces. In other words, before the glue applicator 100 applies glue to different workpieces, the movable seat 20 is in the same position relative to the first mounting seat 10 in the first direction X, and this position is the initial position.

[0213] The initial positioning mechanism 90 is mounted on the first plate 11 of the first mounting base 10. The initial positioning mechanism 90 is configured to position the movable seat 20 in the first direction X in the initial position. That is, before the glue applicator 100 applies glue to the workpiece, the initial positioning mechanism 90 can release and fix the movable seat 20 set on the first mounting base 10 in the initial position in the first direction X, so that the movable seat 20 can be reset to the initial position relative to the first mounting base 10 before the glue applicator 100 applies glue to the workpiece. Conversely, when the initial positioning mechanism 90 releases the movable seat 20, the movable seat 20 can move relative to the first mounting base 10 in the first direction X.

[0214] Optionally, the initial positioning mechanism 90 can have various structures. For example, the initial positioning mechanism 90 can be a pin disposed on the first mounting base 10, with the pin extending perpendicular to the first direction X. Correspondingly, the movable base 20 is provided with a slot or hole for the pin to be inserted. After the pin is inserted into the slot or hole, the pin can position the movable base 20 relative to the first mounting base 10 in the first direction X at an initial position. Conversely, when the pin is removed from the slot or hole, the movable base 20 can move relative to the first mounting base 10 in the first direction X. Of course, the initial positioning mechanism 90 can also be a return spring disposed on the first mounting base 10, etc. The return spring is connected between the first mounting base 10 and the movable base 20 along the first direction X. The return spring applies an elastic force along the first direction X to the movable base 20, so that the return spring can position the movable base 20 relative to the first mounting base 10 in the first direction X at an initial position.

[0215] The glue application device 100 is also provided with an initial positioning mechanism 90, which is set on the first mounting base 10. The initial positioning mechanism 90 can position the movable base 20 in the first direction X in the initial position, so that when the glue application device 100 applies glue to the workpiece, the glue application head 31 can be positioned in the initial position in the first direction X, which is beneficial to improving the glue application accuracy of the glue application device 100.

[0216] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 Please refer to further details. Figure 10 , Figure 10This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an initial positioning mechanism 90 provided in some embodiments of this application. A positioning groove 25 is provided on the movable seat 20. The initial positioning mechanism 90 may include a positioning member 91, which is movably disposed on the first mounting base 10 along a third direction Z. The positioning member 91 is configured to position the movable seat 20 in an initial position when inserted into the positioning groove 25 along the third direction Z. The third direction Z is perpendicular to the plane where the first direction X and the second direction Y intersect.

[0217] The positioning member 91 is configured to position the movable seat 20 in the initial position when it is inserted into the positioning groove 25 in the third direction Z. That is, the movable seat 20 is provided with a positioning groove 25 for the positioning member 91 to be inserted. When the positioning member 91 moves in the third direction Z, the positioning member 91 can be inserted into the positioning groove 25, thereby positioning the movable seat 20 in the first direction X in the initial position. Conversely, after the positioning member 91 moves in the third direction Z and exits the positioning groove 25, the positioning member 91 can release the movable seat 20 so that the movable seat 20 can move relative to the first mounting seat 10 in the first direction X.

[0218] Optionally, the initial positioning mechanism 90 may further include a second mounting base 92, which is mounted on the first plate 11 of the first mounting base 10, and the thickness direction of the second mounting base 92 is consistent with the thickness direction of the first plate 11. The positioning member 91 is movably disposed on the second mounting base 92 along the third direction Z. The mounting structure between the second mounting base 92 and the first mounting base 10 can be various. For example, the second mounting base 92 can be mounted on the first mounting base 10 by bolting, snap-fitting, or bonding.

[0219] For example, the positioning groove 25 is disposed at one end of the third plate 21 of the movable seat 20 away from the second plate 12 of the first mounting seat 10 in the third direction Z, and the positioning member 91 is movably disposed on the first plate 11 of the first mounting seat 10 in the third direction Z, so that the positioning member 91 can be inserted into or removed from the positioning groove 25 when it moves in the third direction Z.

[0220] For example, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the positioning groove 25 is disposed at one end of the third plate 21 of the movable seat 20 in the third direction Z, away from the second plate 12 of the first mounting seat 10. The positioning groove 25 penetrates both sides of the third plate 21 in the second direction Y, so that the positioning groove 25 has two groove sides facing in the first direction X, and both groove sides are inclined, making the positioning groove 25 have a "V" shaped structure. The positioning groove 25 with this structure can guide the positioning member 91 through the groove sides, so that the positioning member 91 can be inserted into the positioning groove 25.

[0221] The movable seat 20 is provided with a positioning groove 25. The initial positioning mechanism 90 includes a positioning member 91. The positioning member 91 can move relative to the first mounting seat 10 along the third direction Z, so that after the positioning member 91 is inserted into the positioning groove 25 of the movable seat 20, it can position the movable seat 20 in the initial position. After the positioning member 91 is removed from the positioning groove 25 of the movable seat 20, it allows the movable seat 20 to move relative to the first mounting seat 10 along the first direction X, so as to realize the positioning of the movable seat 20 in the first direction X in the initial position. The structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0222] In some embodiments, see Figure 6 and Figure 10 As shown, the initial positioning mechanism 90 may also include a driving member 93, which is disposed on the first mounting base 10. The driving member 93 is used to drive the positioning member 91 to move along the third direction Z so that the positioning member 91 is inserted into or removed from the positioning groove 25.

[0223] The driving component 93 is mounted on the second mounting base 92. The driving component 93 and the positioning component 91 are arranged along the third direction Z. The output end of the driving component 93 is connected to the positioning component 91 so that the driving component 93 can drive the positioning component 91 to move relative to the first mounting base 10 along the third direction Z.

[0224] For example, the structure of the drive component 93 can be various, such as a cylinder, a linear motor, or an electric actuator.

[0225] The initial positioning mechanism 90 is also provided with a driving component 93, which can drive the positioning component 91 to move relative to the first mounting base 10 along the third direction Z, so that the positioning component 91 can be inserted into or removed from the positioning groove 25, which is beneficial to improving the automation level of the glue application device 100.

[0226] According to some embodiments of this application, see Figure 10 As shown, the initial positioning mechanism 90 may further include a third detection element 94, which is disposed on the first mounting base 10. The third detection element 94 is configured to detect the position of the positioning element 91 relative to the first mounting base 10 in the third direction Z. The drive element 93 responds to the third detection element 94.

[0227] The driving component 93 includes a main body 931 and a driving rod 932. The main body 931 is mounted on the second mounting base 92. The driving rod 932 extends along the third direction Z and passes through the main body 931 along the third direction Z. Both ends of the driving rod 932 extend out of the main body 931 along the third direction Z. The end of the driving rod 932 near the movable seat 20 along the third direction Z is connected to the positioning component 91, enabling the positioning component 91 to move relative to the second mounting base 92 along the third direction Z. The end of the driving rod 932 away from the positioning component 91 along the third direction Z is used for detection by the third detection component 94 to indirectly obtain the position of the positioning component 91 relative to the first mounting base 10 in the third direction Z. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the third detection component 94 can directly detect the position of the positioning component 91 in the third direction Z.

[0228] Optionally, the initial positioning mechanism 90 is provided with two third detection elements 94. The two third detection elements 94 are arranged at a distance Z along the third direction on the second mounting base 92, so that the two third detection elements 94 are used to detect the first position of the positioning element 91 inserted into the positioning groove 25 and the second position of the positioning element 91 exiting the positioning groove 25, which helps to accurately obtain the information of the positioning element 91 entering or exiting the positioning groove 25, so as to improve the reliability of the initial positioning mechanism 90.

[0229] For example, the structure of the third detection element 94 can be various, such as a capacitive proximity sensor, an inductive proximity sensor, or a photoelectric proximity sensor.

[0230] The initial positioning mechanism 90 is also provided with a third detection element 94, which can detect the position of the positioning element 91 relative to the first mounting base 10 in the third direction Z, so as to obtain the position information of the positioning element 91 inserting or exiting the positioning slot 25, so as to control the drive element 93 to start or stop.

[0231] According to some embodiments of this application, see Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a fixed seat 26 is provided on the movable seat 20, and the fixed seat 26 is fixed to the movable seat 20. The fixed seat 26 is provided with a second through hole and a third through hole arranged at intervals along the second direction Y. The glue applicator 31 passes through the second through hole, and the traction member 41 passes through the third through hole.

[0232] The fixed seat 26 is fixed to the fourth plate 22 of the movable seat 20, and the fixed seat 26 is located on the side of the fourth plate 22 facing away from the third plate 21 in the third direction Z. The second plate 12 of the first mounting seat 10 is provided with an assembly hole for the fixed seat 26 to pass through, so that the fixed seat 26 can extend to the side of the second plate 12 facing away from the movable seat 20. The fixing structure between the fixed seat 26 and the movable seat 20 can be various, such as bolt connection, adhesive connection or snap connection.

[0233] For example, the fixed base 26 includes a first part 261 and a second part 262 connected to each other. The first part 261 is connected to the fourth plate 22 of the movable base 20 and extends along a third direction Z. The second part 262 is perpendicular to the first part 261 and extends along a second direction Y. Both ends of the second part 262 in the second direction Y extend outward from the sides of the first part 261. A second through hole and a third through hole are both provided on the second part 262, and the second through hole and the third through hole are located on opposite sides of the first part 261 in the second direction Y, so that the glue applicator 31 can pass through the second through hole along the third direction Z, and the traction member 41 can pass through the third through hole along the third direction Z.

[0234] A fixed seat 26 is connected to the movable seat 20. By setting a second through hole and a third through hole arranged at intervals along the second direction Y on the fixed seat 26, and having the glue applicator 31 and the traction member 41 respectively pass through the second through hole and the third through hole, the suspended parts of the glue applicator 31 and the traction member 41 are further stabilized, thereby improving the stability of the glue applicator 31 and the traction member 41 on the movable seat 20, and helping to reduce the risk of the glue applicator 31 and the traction member 41 shaking during use.

The first mounting base 10 of the adhesive application device 100 is connected to the base 200 so that the actuator can drive the adhesive application device 100 to move. Of course, in other embodiments, the first mounting base 10 of the adhesive application device may also be directly connected to the output end of the actuator.

[0239] By connecting the first mounting base 10 of the glue applicator 100 to the actuator, the actuator can drive the glue applicator 100 to move, thereby driving the traction member 41 to move along the second direction Y, so as to realize the automated glue application to the workpiece.

This helps to improve the glue coating accuracy of the glue coating equipment 1000, and thus effectively improves the glue coating quality of the glue coating equipment 1000.
