Foam has a series of characteristics such as elasticity, light weight, quick compression and fixation, easy use, easy bending, ultra-thin volume, and reliable performance. Foam structures are often attached to car door handles, mainly for anti-collision and protection.

[0003] The traditional manual placement method has many limitations in terms of speed and consistency because it relies on manpower. First, the speed of manual operation is limited by the operator's proficiency and physical condition, which can easily lead to an unstable work rhythm; second, during long-term repetitive labor, the operator may lose concentration due to fatigue, thereby increasing the error rate. Not only that, since there are multiple positioning grooves in different positions on the workpiece waiting for foam to be attached, and the positioning grooves on the workpiece are often placed downward after the injection molding is completed, it is inevitable that the workpiece will be damaged by collision during the operator's movement or flipping of the workpiece.

[0020] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 8As shown, the present invention is a fully automatic foam mounting equipment assembly, which is used to sequentially attach a plurality of foams to a workpiece, wherein a plurality of positioning grooves which are located on the same outer wall and are not arranged in a colinear manner are distributed on the workpiece, and the foams are movably attached to the positioning grooves, and the mounting equipment comprises: a frame 11, which is arranged on one side of an injection molding machine 10, and a receiving mechanism 2 for grabbing the processed workpiece is also arranged between the frame 11 and the injection molding machine 10; a turning mechanism 3 and a film attaching mechanism 4, wherein the movable end of the turning mechanism 3 is connected to a positioning seat 30, and the receiving mechanism 2 is used to transfer the workpiece processed by the injection molding machine 10 to the positioning seat 30, so that when the positioning seat 30 is turned over relative to the frame 11, the openings of the plurality of positioning grooves on the workpiece can face upward; the film attaching mechanism 4 can sequentially and movably attach a plurality of foams on the roll to the positioning grooves; the moving mechanism 3 and the film attaching mechanism 4 are used to transfer the workpiece processed by the injection molding machine 10 to the positioning seat 30, so that when the positioning seat 30 is turned over relative to the frame 11, the openings of the plurality of positioning grooves on the workpiece can face upward; the film attaching mechanism 4 can sequentially and movably attach a plurality of foams on the roll to the positioning grooves; The material moving mechanism 5 and the positioning mechanism 6, the material moving mechanism 5 is arranged on the frame 11, one end of the material moving mechanism 5 is close to the injection molding machine 10, and the other end extends to the bottom of the film sticking mechanism 4, which is used to drive the positioning seat 30 to approach or move away from the film sticking mechanism 4; the positioning mechanism 6 is arranged at the driving end of the material moving mechanism 5, and the flipping mechanism 3 is installed on the material moving mechanism 5, and the moving direction of the driving end of the positioning mechanism 6 and the moving direction of the driving end of the material moving mechanism 5 are arranged perpendicular to each other in the horizontal direction, so as to adjust the position of the positioning groove on the workpiece relative to the film sticking mechanism 4; the detection mechanism 7 and the unloading mechanism 8, the detection mechanism 7 is arranged below the positioning seat 30, and the detection mechanism 7 can be used to detect the close position of the foam in the positioning groove when approaching the positioning seat 30, and transfer it to the outside of the mounting equipment through the unloading mechanism 8 on the frame 11.

[0022] In this embodiment, the main purpose is to achieve the goal of attaching a plurality of foams to the positioning grooves of the workpiece in sequence. Specifically, Figures 1 to 8As shown, the device is integrated with the injection molding machine 10, that is, after the workpiece is injection molded by the injection molding machine 10, the receiving mechanism 2 can grab the workpiece in the injection molding machine 10 and put it into the positioning seat 30. It should be noted that after the workpiece is injection molded, the openings of the positioning grooves on the workpiece are all placed facing downward, which also makes the workpiece located in the positioning seat 30 the same. Therefore, before the foam pasting process is started, it is necessary to drive the positioning seat 30 to flip 180° through the flipping mechanism 3 so that the positioning groove openings on the workpiece are flipped to face upward. With the drive of the material moving mechanism 5, the positioning seat 30 can be moved to the bottom of the film pasting mechanism 4 and the foam pasting operation can be completed directly. After the positioning seat 30 is reset by the material moving mechanism 5, it can be flipped again by the flipping mechanism 3 to complete the workpiece quality detection function by using the detection mechanism 7, and finally the workpiece is unloaded, stacked and stored under the grasping of the unloading mechanism 8. It can be seen that the integrated design of the fully automatic foam mounting equipment and the injection molding machine 10 realizes unmanned production and avoids the outflow of defective products caused by errors generated when manually mounting foam. Moreover, because the several positioning grooves on the workpiece are not in the same straight line, the positioning mechanism 6 is required to adjust the overall position of the flipping mechanism 3. While ensuring the stability of the workpiece, the position of the positioning groove of the foam to be mounted on the workpiece can also be accurately adjusted to ensure that the foam is quickly and stably attached to the positioning groove, saving the overall work cycle time and greatly ensuring the production efficiency and workpiece quality.

[0023] The flipping mechanism 3 includes: a mounting frame 31, on which a mounting seat 310 and a mounting plate 311 are arranged; a rotating shaft 32 and a rotating motor 33, the rotating shaft 32 is rotatably arranged in the mounting seat 310, and the positioning seat 30 is connected to the rotating shaft 32; the rotating motor 33 is installed on the mounting plate 311, and a coupling 34 is arranged between the output end of the rotating motor 33 and the rotating shaft 32, so that the rotating motor 33 can drive the positioning seat 30 to rotate when it is turned on.

[0024] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, when the receiving mechanism 2 transfers the workpiece after injection molding to the positioning seat 30, the rotating motor 33 can be turned on to drive the rotating shaft 32 to rotate in the mounting seat 310 through the coupling 34. Since the positioning seat 30 is connected to the rotating shaft 32 through the mounting plate 311, the workpiece is synchronously flipped to 180° with the positioning seat 30, so that the side of the workpiece with the positioning groove is placed upward, which provides convenience for the subsequent film-sticking mechanism 4 to stick the foam tightly in the positioning groove. The overall structure is relatively simple, avoiding the phenomenon of bumping and damage when the workpiece is manually flipped. While ensuring the quality of the workpiece, it also saves the cycle time for the overall foam sticking process, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0025] A locking block 35 is connected to the bottom of the positioning seat 30, and a locking groove 350 and a locking hole 351 that are interconnected are formed in the locking block 35. The rotating shaft 32 is provided with a connecting hole 320 along its radial direction, and locking planes 321 are formed on the rotating shaft 32 at both ends of the connecting hole 320; when the engaging groove 350 is movably engaged with the rotating shaft 32 and pressed against the locking plane 321, the locking hole 351 and the connecting hole 320 are interconnected to allow the fixing member to pass through and limit the movement of the positioning seat 30 relative to the rotating shaft 32.

[0026] Further, if Figures 4 to 5 As shown, in view of the connection between the positioning seat 30 and the rotating shaft 32, the present embodiment has a locking block 35 detachably connected at the bottom of the positioning seat 30 by means of screws, screws and other structures. During the installation process, the engaging groove 350 can be used to move along the radial direction of the rotating shaft 32, so that the locking block 35 can be movably engaged with the rotating shaft 32. It should be noted that the engaging groove 350 is arranged in a U-shape, and the two sides of the engaging groove 350 can be tightly attached to the locking plane 321 with the engagement of the locking block 35, so as to connect the locking hole 351 and the connecting hole 320 to each other, which can not only ensure that there is no relative slip between the locking block 35 and the rotating shaft 32, but also can achieve a fixed connection between the positioning seat 30 and the rotating shaft 32 when the fixing member passes through the locking hole 351 and the connecting hole 320, so as to provide a guarantee for the stability of the workpiece during the flip adjustment and flip quality detection. It should be noted that the fixing member in the present solution can also be replaced by other connecting components such as screws and bolts.

[0027] Preferably, if Figure 4 As shown, the flipping mechanism 3 in this embodiment also includes an extension plate 36 and a clamping cylinder 37, wherein the extension plate 36 is connected to the positioning seat 30, and the clamping cylinder 37 is arranged on the extension plate 36 and is located on one side of the positioning seat 30. When the receiving mechanism 2 transfers the workpiece in the injection molding machine 10 to the positioning seat 30, since a positioning block 300 and a contour surface 301 are formed in the positioning seat 30, as the workpiece is placed, the positioning block 300 can be movably inserted in the workpiece, which plays a guiding and positioning effect when the workpiece is placed. At the same time, the design of the contour surface 301 enables the workpiece to be stably attached to the positioning seat 30. As the driving end of the clamping cylinder 37 drives the clamping column 370 to clamp and fix the workpiece, it effectively prevents the workpiece from being displaced relative to the positioning seat 30 or even falling off during the flipping process.

[0028] The material moving mechanism 5 includes a feeding servo module 50 and a first guide rail 51 which are arranged in parallel on the frame 11. The movable end of the feeding servo module 50 is connected to a material moving plate 52, and the bottom wall of the material moving plate 52 is installed with a first slider 53 which is movably engaged with the first guide rail 51; the positioning mechanism 6 includes a transverse movement servo module 60 and a second guide rail 61 which are arranged in parallel on the material moving plate 52 and vertically to the feeding servo module 50, the movable end of the transverse movement servo module 60 is connected to a movable bracket 62, and the bottom wall of the movable bracket 62 is installed with a second slider 63 which is movably engaged with the second guide rail 61, and the flipping mechanism 3 and the detection mechanism 7 are both arranged on the movable bracket 62.

[0029] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1 , when the workpiece taken out from the injection molding machine 10 is pressed by the pressing column 370 and turned to 180 degrees by the rotating shaft 32, the feeding servo module 50 can be moved along the Figure 3 The lateral movement servo module 60 drives the movable bracket 62 along the positioning groove of the workpiece. Figure 3 It moves in the front-to-back direction to align the positioning grooves at different positions to the bottom of the film pasting mechanism 4, thereby realizing that several non-collinear positioning grooves can be automatically adjusted to meet the required film pasting process requirements. In other words, the feeding servo module 50 and the lateral movement servo module 60 complement each other to achieve the position adjustment of several positioning grooves in the foam to be pasted, avoiding the error caused by manual adjustment and affecting the quality of the foam pasted on the workpiece. In addition, the material moving mechanism 5 and the adjustment mechanism 6 both provide guarantees for the smoothness and accuracy of the workpiece moving to the film pasting mechanism 4 for foam pasting and the adjustment of several positioning grooves on the workpiece through the active card connection between the slider and the slide rail. It should be noted that the working principle of the feeding servo module 50 and the lateral movement servo module 60 in this embodiment can be referenced from the linear guide rail. Of course, the driving method is not limited to the one in this embodiment, and can also be replaced by a ball screw driving method.

[0030] The film-sticking mechanism 4 includes: a body 40, which is arranged on the frame 11, and a traction roller 41 for placing the tape is arranged on the body 40 to unfold several foams on the tape in sequence; a receiving cylinder 42 and an adsorption cylinder 43, the receiving cylinder 42 is arranged on the body 40 in the horizontal direction, and the driving end of the receiving cylinder 42 is connected to the receiving roller 420, and the receiving roller 420 is used to pull the tape to move so as to place the foam at the end of the tape directly below the adsorption cylinder 43; the adsorption cylinder 43 is arranged on the body 40 in the vertical direction, and is located above the first guide rail 51 close to the end of the body 40, and the driving end of the adsorption cylinder 43 is connected to the adsorption block 430; when the adsorption block 430 adsorbs the foam and detaches from the tape, the receiving cylinder 42 drives the receiving roller 420 to retract into the body 40, so that when the adsorption cylinder 43 pushes the adsorption block 430 close to the positioning seat 30, the foam can be pressed tightly in the positioning groove.

[0031] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, it should be noted that when the above-mentioned feeding servo module 50 moves the positioning seat 30 to the bottom of the adsorption cylinder 43, the workpiece in the positioning seat 30 does not need to be disassembled and transferred to the machine body 40. Since the position of the positioning seat 30 is close to the receiving cylinder 42 and is located directly below the adsorption block 430 at this time, before sticking the foam, the worker or the robot can place the whole roll of foam into the traction roller 41 (several foams are attached to the roll at intervals). As the receiving roller 420 pulls the roll, the foam on the roll is always at the end position. In this way, when the receiving cylinder 42 drives the receiving roller 420 to extend horizontally between the adsorption cylinder 43 and the positioning seat 30, the adsorption cylinder 43 can pre-drive the adsorption block 430 to approach the roll. After the foam is adsorbed and reset, the receiving cylinder 42 can drive the receiving roller 420 to move along the roll. Figure 6 When the adsorption cylinder 43 moves to the left again to drive the adsorption block 430 to approach the positioning seat 30, the foam on the adsorption block 430 is directly pressed against the positioning groove. As the positioning groove on the workpiece is adjusted relative to the body 40, the above-mentioned foam sticking action is repeated, and the foam sticking process requirements can be quickly and automatically completed. This overall structure simplifies the foam sticking operation steps, which can not only quickly realize the foam sticking action, but also can connect the subsequent detection and unloading operation steps through the feeding servo module 50 after the workpiece completes the corresponding process, eliminating the clamping and secondary placement operation steps of the workpiece when sticking foam in the prior art, greatly saving the work cycle time and improving production efficiency.

[0032] The detection mechanism 7 includes a lifting member 70 and a plurality of detectors 71. The lifting member 70 is arranged on the movable bracket 62. The plurality of detectors 71 are all arranged at the driving end of the lifting member 70, so that when the lifting member 70 is driven, it can drive the plurality of detectors 71 to move closer to or away from the positioning seat 30 in the vertical direction.

[0033] Further, if Figure 4 As shown, after the foaming process is completed for the plurality of positioning grooves on the workpiece, the feeding servo module 50 is restored to Figure 3 When in the initial position shown, the rotating motor 33 can drive the positioning seat 30 to flip to 180 degrees again. At this time, the lifting member 70 located at the bottom of the positioning seat 30 drives the detector 71 to approach the workpiece, and finally detects the position of the foam in each positioning groove on the workpiece to ensure that the foam and the positioning groove are in place, effectively avoiding the outflow of defective products.

[0034] Preferably, the lifting member 70 in this embodiment includes a lifting cylinder 700 and a detection pressure head 701, wherein the driving end of the lifting cylinder 700 is vertically oriented toward the positioning seat 30, and a lifting plate 702 is connected to the driving end, and the detection pressure head 701 and the detector 71 are both mounted on the lifting plate 702. It should be noted that there is a certain distance between the lifting plate 702 and the positioning seat 30, thereby providing sufficient space for the positioning seat 30 to drive the workpiece to perform a flipping action, and effectively avoiding position interference between the clamping column 370 or the workpiece and the above-mentioned detector 71, resulting in collision damage. For this reason, after the workpiece is flipped, the lifting cylinder 700 is required to push the lifting plate 702 closer to the workpiece. When the detection pressure head 701 is pressed against the positioning seat 30, the detector 71 can start the detection of the degree of adhesion and the adhesion position between the positioning groove and the foam. It is supplemented that, in the present embodiment, there are multiple detectors 71 and detection pressure heads 701, and the detector 71 can be replaced by other detection components such as position sensors and laser sensors.

[0035] The unloading mechanism 8 and the receiving mechanism 2 both include a fixed frame 80 and a suction plate 81. The fixed frame 80 is connected to a manipulator or a linear guide rail, and adjustment plates 82 are connected to both ends of the fixed frame 80. The suction plate 81 is arranged on the adjustment plate 82 in a vertical direction to realize the grabbing and placement of the workpiece.

[0036] In this embodiment, Figure 7 The unloading mechanism 8 shown and Figure 8 The supporting mechanism 2 shown in the figure adopts a fixed frame 80 and a suction plate 81 structure. Specifically, when the workpiece with foam attached is detected and qualified by the detector 71, the workpiece can be flipped again by the rotating shaft 32, and then the fixed frame 80 can be driven to move to the top of the positioning seat 30 through the movement of the manipulator and the linear guide. It should be noted that since all the mechanisms in this embodiment are arranged in two groups on the frame 11, it is ensured that the automation equipment can be integrated with the processing of the injection molding machine 10, while improving the production efficiency, it can also achieve stable grasping of the workpiece under the action of the suction cup.

[0037] Preferably, when a linear guide is used to realize the movement of the suction plate 81, it can be accomplished by two linear guide structures that are vertically arranged and movably connected to each other. This method is the same as the structure and principle used in conventional machinery, and will not be described in detail here. In addition, the present embodiment also has a conveyor belt 12 outside the frame 11 to facilitate the automatic unloading and stacking of qualified workpieces.

[0038] The adjustment plate 82 is provided with a first waist-shaped hole 820 and a second waist-shaped hole 821 which are not connected to each other. The first waist-shaped hole 820 is used to adjust the installation position of the adjustment plate 82 relative to the fixed frame 80; the adsorption plate 81 is installed in the second waist-shaped hole 821, and the position of the adsorption plate 81 in the second waist-shaped hole 821 can be adjusted by the locking nut 822.

[0039] Further, if Figure 8 As shown, the first waist-shaped hole 820 and the second waist-shaped hole 821 on the adjustment plate 82 are not connected to each other. During the assembly process of the adjustment plate 82, the worker or the manipulator can adjust the contact area between the adjustment plate 82 and the fixing frame 80 through the first waist-shaped hole 820 to ensure that the adsorption plate 81 has enough distance to pick up the workpiece in the positioning seat 30; similarly, under the action of the second waist-shaped hole 821, the position of the adsorption plate 81 on the adjustment plate 82 can also be further adjusted. The adsorption plate 81 is provided with an external thread that cooperates with the locking nut. Therefore, when the adsorption plate 81 is in the desired position, the adsorption plate 81 can be locked on the adjustment plate 82 through the locking nut, which effectively ensures the stability of the adsorption plate 81 when transferring the workpiece. Preferably, the present solution can also be provided with a cylinder clamp for grabbing waste on the workpiece at the end of the adjustment plate 82 away from the fixing frame 80.
