Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of adhesive coating equipment technology, and in particular to an adhesive coating device and adhesive coating method. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, during the application of adhesive by a coating machine, silicone grease inevitably overflows outside the designated area, easily leading to uneven coating. This causes difficulties in subsequent product debugging due to interference from the overflowing silicone grease. Furthermore, the traditional manual adhesive removal method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also struggles to ensure uniformity and results in low efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a glue-applying device and a glue-applying method, which avoids glue overflow in the finished product and makes the overall glue-applying effect more uniform.

[0004] The technical effects to be achieved by this invention are realized through the following aspects:

[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides an adhesive application apparatus, comprising:

[0006] Mounting rack;

[0007] A stage is placed on the mounting frame, and the stage is used to place the product to be coated with adhesive;

[0008] A steel mesh mechanism, including an adhesive-coated steel mesh located above the platform; and

[0009] The adhesive application mechanism includes a sliding plate, an adhesive application component, and an adhesive scraping component. The sliding plate is located above the steel mesh mechanism and is slidably connected to the mounting frame along a first direction. The adhesive application component is slidably connected to the sliding plate along a second direction and can move closer to or further away from the steel mesh mechanism along a third direction. The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction. The adhesive scraping component is connected to the end of the adhesive application component that is closer to the steel mesh mechanism.

[0010] In some implementations, a suction mechanism is also included, which is located below the sliding plate and is movable relative to the stage in a first direction.

[0011] In this implementation, the suction mechanism is used to pick up the product to be assembled and stick the product to the adhesive application area, thereby completing the product assembly.

[0012] In some implementations, the sliding plate has a sliding window, the side of the sliding window extends along a second direction with a first slide rail, the glue application assembly has a first slider, the glue application assembly passes through the sliding window, and the first slider is slidably connected to the first slide rail.

[0013] In this implementation, the adhesive application assembly can slide more smoothly onto the sliding plate, and the overall structure is more compact.

[0014] In some implementations, the adhesive application mechanism further includes a first mounting plate and a lifting drive, the first mounting plate being connected to the first slider, the adhesive application assembly being slidably connected to the first mounting plate, and the lifting drive driving the adhesive application assembly to move closer to or further away from the steel mesh mechanism within the sliding window.

[0015] In some implementations, the adhesive application assembly includes a second mounting plate, a material cylinder, a piston rod, and an adhesive spraying drive. The second mounting plate is slidably connected to the first mounting plate, the material cylinder is connected to the second mounting plate, the piston rod is slidably connected to the second mounting plate and located above the material cylinder, the adhesive spraying drive drives the piston rod into or away from the material cylinder, and the adhesive scraping assembly is connected to one end of the material cylinder near the steel mesh mechanism.

[0016] In this implementation, the lifting drive drives the second mounting plate to slide along the first mounting plate, causing the material cylinder to move to the preset position for applying adhesive. The adhesive spraying drive drives the piston rod to slide along the second mounting plate, thereby causing the piston rod to enter the material cylinder, which in turn causes the material cylinder to spray out silicone grease, ensuring the reliability of the adhesive application assembly.

[0017] In some implementations, the material cylinder has an inclined discharge port, and the scraping assembly includes a scraper blade connected to the material cylinder and forming an acute angle with the discharge port.

[0018] In some implementations, the barrel has an inclined guide surface, which is opposite to and connected to the discharge port.

[0019] In some implementations, the steel mesh mechanism further includes a support plate, a first positioning drive, and a second positioning drive. The support plate is located above the platform and slidably connected to the mounting frame. The support plate has a mounting groove, and the glued steel mesh is installed in the mounting groove. The first positioning drive drives the support plate to slide relative to the mounting frame, and the second positioning drive drives the support plate to move closer to or away from the platform in a third direction.

[0020] In some implementations, a second slide rail extends along a second direction on the mounting bracket, and a second slider is provided on the support plate, the second slider being slidably connected to the second slide rail.

[0021] In some implementations, the material suction mechanism includes a support base and a material suction assembly, wherein the support base is disposed on the mounting frame, and the material suction assembly is slidably connected to the support base along a first direction.

[0022] In this implementation, after the glue applicator completes the glue application and scraping, it slides along the first direction toward the side away from the suction component, thereby avoiding the suction component. The suction component slides along the first direction so that it picks up the product to be assembled and places it into the glue application area, thereby completing the assembly of the product.

[0023] In some implementations, the suction assembly includes a connecting plate and a suction nozzle, the connecting plate being slidably connected to the support base, and the suction nozzle being connected to the connecting plate.

[0024] In some implementations, the mounting frame includes a third mounting plate with a mounting window. A transmission strip extends along the side of the mounting window in a second direction. The platform is mounted in the mounting window and connected to the transmission strip.

[0025] In some implementations, the adhesive applicator further includes a lifting mechanism, which includes a lifting plate and a lifting drive. The lifting plate is located below the platform, and the lifting drive drives the lifting plate to move closer to or away from the platform.

[0026] In some implementations, the adhesive applicator further includes a stop mechanism located on the moving path of the platform.

[0027] In this implementation, the stop mechanism is used to stop the platform so as to stop the platform at a preset position, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the adhesive application component in applying adhesive to the product.

[0028] Secondly, the present invention provides an adhesive application method based on an adhesive application apparatus, the method comprising the following steps:

[0029] Control the steel mesh mechanism to move to the preset position;

[0030] Control the glue application mechanism to move to the preset position;

[0031] After spraying silicone grease onto the steel mesh mechanism, the adhesive application mechanism is scraped off.

[0032] Keep the steel mesh mechanism away from the platform;

[0033] Control the suction mechanism to pick up the product to be assembled and move it to the preset position, and place the product to be assembled on the glue application area of ​​the stage.

[0034] In summary, the present invention has at least the following advantages:

[0035] The adhesive applicator provided by this invention places the product to be coated on a platform, with an adhesive coating steel mesh located above the platform. The sliding plate of the adhesive applicator slides along a first direction, thereby moving the adhesive applicator component and the scraper component. The adhesive applicator component slides relative to the sliding plate along a second direction, thereby moving the adhesive applicator component and the scraper component to a preset adhesive applicator position. The adhesive applicator component moves along a third direction and approaches the adhesive coating steel mesh, thereby applying silicone grease to the adhesive coating steel mesh. The silicone grease is applied to the adhesive application area of ​​the product to be coated through the steel mesh layer of the adhesive coating steel mesh. The scraper component scrapes the adhesive coating steel mesh to remove excess silicone grease from the adhesive coating steel mesh, avoiding glue overflow from the coated product and making the overall adhesive coating effect more uniform.

[0054] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0055] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the invention.

[0056] Example 1:

[0057] Please see the appendix Figure 1 ~Appendix Figure 5 The adhesive applicator of the present invention includes a mounting frame 10, a platform 20, a steel mesh mechanism 30, and an adhesive applicator 40.

[0058] Please see below. Figure 1 , Figure 1 The diagram illustrates the structural relationship between the mounting frame 10, the platform 20, the steel mesh mechanism 30, and the adhesive application mechanism 40 in an embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to the diagram for further details. Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The specific structures of the steel mesh mechanism 30 and the adhesive application mechanism 40 in an embodiment of the present invention are illustrated. For ease of description, an example of the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction is defined, specifically as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the XYZ coordinate axes are defined, where the first direction is parallel to the X-axis, the second direction is parallel to the Y-axis, and the third direction is parallel to the Z-axis. These three directions are orthogonal to each other. It is understandable that the first, second, and third directions may not be orthogonal, or may only be partially orthogonal.

[0059] Specifically, the platform 20 is placed on the mounting frame 10 and is used to place the product 80 to be coated with adhesive; the steel mesh mechanism 30 includes an adhesive coating steel mesh 31, which is located above the platform 20; the adhesive coating mechanism 40 includes a sliding plate 41, an adhesive coating assembly 42, and an adhesive scraper assembly 43. The sliding plate 41 is located above the steel mesh mechanism 30 and can be slidably connected to the mounting frame 10 along a first direction. The adhesive coating assembly 42 is slidably connected to the sliding plate 41 along a second direction and can move closer to or away from the steel mesh mechanism 30 along a third direction. The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction. The adhesive scraper assembly 43 is connected to the end of the adhesive coating assembly 42 that is close to the steel mesh mechanism 30.

[0060] In this embodiment, the sliding plate 41 is slidably connected to the mounting bracket 10 along the first direction, and the adhesive application assembly 42 is slidably connected to the sliding plate 41 along the second direction, thereby enabling the adhesive application assembly 42 to move above the adhesive application steel mesh 31, i.e., the preset position for adhesive application. The adhesive application assembly 42 approaches the adhesive application steel mesh 31 along the third direction. The adhesive application steel mesh 31 is correspondingly arranged with the platform 20. The adhesive application assembly 42 applies silicone grease to the adhesive application steel mesh 31, and the silicone grease is applied to the product 80 to be coated on the platform 20 through the adhesive application steel mesh 31. Since the scraper assembly 43 is connected to the adhesive application assembly 42 near the platform 20, the adhesive application assembly 42 is slidably connected to the mounting bracket 10. After the adhesive is applied, at one end of the coating steel mesh 31, the scraper component 43 abuts against the coating steel mesh 31, and the coating component 42 moves along the second direction, so that the scraper component 43 scrapes off the silicone grease on the coating steel mesh 31. This avoids the problem of excess adhesive when the silicone grease is directly applied to the product 80 to be coated. At the same time, the scraping process allows the silicone grease to flow back into the product 80 to be coated through the coating steel mesh 31, making the silicone grease coating more uniform and facilitating the next coating process. It also prevents the silicone grease from sticking to the coating steel mesh 31, which would affect the coating process.

[0061] It should be noted that the product 80 to be coated has a coating position 81, and the coating stencil 31 has a stencil layer 311 corresponding to the coating position 81, so that the silicone grease can flow accurately into the coating position 81 through the stencil layer 311.

[0062] Specifically, in actual operation, the sliding plate 41 slides along the first direction, thereby driving the glue application component 42 and the scraper component 43 to move. The glue application component 42 slides along the sliding plate 41 in the second direction, thereby causing the glue application component 42 and the scraper component 43 to move to the preset glue application position. The glue application component 42 moves along the third direction and abuts against the glue application steel mesh 31, thereby applying silicone grease to the glue application steel mesh 31. The silicone grease flows into the product 80 to be glued on the stage 20 through the steel mesh layer 311 of the glue application steel mesh 31. After the coating is completed, the glue application component 42 slides along the second direction, so that the scraper component 43 scrapes off the silicone grease on the glue application steel mesh 31, thereby making the silicone grease more evenly coated on the product to be glued, so as to form the glue application area 82.

[0063] After the adhesive is applied, the adhesive application component 42 moves in a third direction away from the adhesive application mesh 31, making it easy to remove the mesh 31 to replace the product 80 to be coated, or to attach other products to be assembled onto the adhesive application area 82, thus completing the product assembly. Of course, it is not limited to removing the mesh 31 to replace the product; the coated product can also be removed from below the mesh 31, and the product 80 to be coated can be placed on the stage 20. The adhesive application component 42 repeats the above process to apply adhesive to the product without any excess adhesive.

[0064] In the above-mentioned gluing device, the product 80 to be glued is placed on the platform 20, and the gluing steel mesh 31 is located above the platform 20. The sliding plate 41 of the gluing mechanism 40 slides along the first direction, thereby driving the gluing component 42 and the scraping component 43 to move. The gluing component 42 slides relative to the sliding plate 41 along the second direction, thereby moving the gluing component 42 and the scraping component 43 to the preset gluing position. The gluing component 42 moves along the third direction and approaches the gluing steel mesh 31, thereby applying silicone grease to the gluing steel mesh 31. The silicone grease is applied to the gluing position 81 of the product 80 to be glued through the steel mesh layer 311 of the gluing steel mesh 31. The scraping component 43 scrapes the gluing steel mesh 31 to remove excess silicone grease from the gluing steel mesh 31, avoiding glue overflow from the finished product and making the overall gluing effect more uniform.

[0065] In some preferred embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4The diagram illustrates the structural relationship between the suction mechanism 50 and the steel mesh mechanism 30 in this embodiment of the invention. Specifically, the adhesive applicator further includes a suction mechanism 50, which is located below the sliding plate 41 and is movable relative to the stage 20 along a first direction. The suction mechanism 50 is used to pick up the product to be assembled and adhere it to the adhesive application area 82, thereby completing the product assembly. Specifically, after the adhesive scraper assembly 43 scrapes off the silicone grease, the adhesive application assembly 42 moves along a third direction to move away from the adhesive application steel mesh 31, and then moves along the first direction to avoid the suction mechanism 50. The steel mesh mechanism 30 is moved so that the adhesive application steel mesh 31 is away from the finished adhesive product. After the suction mechanism 50 picks up the product to be assembled, it moves along the first direction to above the adhesive application area 82 and places the product to be assembled on the adhesive application area 82, so that the two are adhered together to complete the product assembly.

[0066] In some preferred embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 The diagram illustrates the structural relationship between the adhesive application assembly 42 and the sliding plate 41 in an embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, the sliding plate 41 has a sliding window 411, and a first slide rail 412 extends along the second direction from the side of the sliding window 411. The adhesive application assembly 42 is provided with a first slider 421, which passes through the sliding window 411. The first slider 421 is slidably connected to the first slide rail 412. This allows the adhesive application assembly 42 to slide more smoothly to the sliding plate 41, and the overall structure is more compact. Preferably, first slide rails 412 extend from both sides of the sliding window 411 along the second direction. Two first sliders 421 are provided at the corresponding positions of the adhesive application assembly 42 and the two first slide rails 412. The two first sliders 421 are slidably connected to the two first slide rails 412 respectively, thereby ensuring the stability of the adhesive application assembly 42 during sliding.

[0067] In some preferred embodiments, the adhesive application mechanism 40 further includes a first mounting plate 44 and a lifting drive 45. The first mounting plate 44 is connected to a first slider 421, and the adhesive application assembly 42 is slidably connected to the first mounting plate 44. The lifting drive 45 drives the adhesive application assembly 42 to move closer to or further away from the steel mesh mechanism 30 within the sliding window 411. The lifting drive 45 drives the adhesive application assembly 42 closer to the adhesive-coated steel mesh 31 so that the adhesive application assembly 42 applies silicone grease to the adhesive-coated steel mesh 31. After the adhesive application is completed, the adhesive application assembly 42 moves along a second direction so that the scraper assembly 43 scrapes off the excess silicone grease on the adhesive-coated steel mesh 31. The lifting drive 45 drives the adhesive application assembly 42 to rise relative to the adhesive-coated steel mesh 31 and move away from the adhesive-coated steel mesh 31. The sliding plate 41 slides along a first direction to avoid the suction mechanism 50.

[0068] In some preferred embodiments, the adhesive application assembly 42 includes a second mounting plate 422, a material cylinder 423, a piston rod 424, and a spraying drive 425. The second mounting plate 422 is slidably connected to the first mounting plate 44, the material cylinder 423 is connected to the second mounting plate 422, and the piston rod 424 is slidably connected to the second mounting plate 422 and located above the material cylinder 423. The spraying drive 425 drives the piston rod 424 into or away from the material cylinder 423. The scraping assembly 43 is connected to the end of the material cylinder 423 near the steel mesh mechanism 30. The lifting drive 45 drives the second mounting plate 422 to slide along the first mounting plate 44, causing the material cylinder 423 to move to the preset position for adhesive application. The spraying drive 425 drives the piston rod 424 to slide along the second mounting plate 422, thereby causing the piston rod 424 to enter the material cylinder 423, thus causing the material cylinder 423 to spray out silicone grease, ensuring the reliability of the adhesive application assembly 42.

[0069] In some preferred embodiments, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 The diagram illustrates the structural relationship between the scraper blade 431 and the material cylinder 423 in an embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, the material cylinder 423 has an inclined outlet 4231, and the scraper assembly 43 includes a scraper blade 431. The scraper blade 431 is connected to the material cylinder 423 and forms an acute angle R1 with the outlet 4231. This allows the silicone grease to flow down the scraper blade 431 after being sprayed out and coat the coating steel mesh 31, avoiding large-scale splashing of the silicone grease during spraying and thus preventing waste. It also facilitates the scraping of the material by the scraper blade 431. Preferably, the scraper blade 431 is connected to the material cylinder 423, and the distance between the scraper blade 431 and the coating steel mesh 31 is smaller than the distance between the outlet 4231 and the coating steel mesh 31, thereby facilitating the scraping of the material.

[0070] In some preferred embodiments, the barrel 423 has an inclined guide surface 4232, which is opposite to and connected to the outlet 4231. The silicone grease inside the barrel 423 flows to the outlet 4231 through the guide surface 4232, avoiding the problem of silicone grease accumulating at the bottom of the barrel 423 and thus affecting the coating.

[0071] In some preferred embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4The diagram illustrates the structural relationship between the support plate 32, the first positioning drive member 33, and the second positioning drive member 34 in an embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, the steel mesh mechanism 30 further includes the support plate 32, the first positioning drive member 33, and the second positioning drive member 34. The support plate 32 is located above the platform 20 and is slidably connected to the mounting frame 10. The support plate 32 has a mounting groove 321, in which the glued steel mesh 31 is installed. The first positioning drive member 33 drives the support plate 32 to slide relative to the mounting frame 10, and the second positioning drive member 34 drives the support plate 32 to move closer to or away from the platform 20 in a third direction. The first positioning drive 33 drives the support plate 32 to slide, so that the adhesive-coating steel mesh 31 is positioned above the stage 20. The second positioning drive 34 drives the support plate 32 away from the stage 20 in a third direction, creating a certain gap between the adhesive-coating steel mesh 31 and the product 80 to be coated. This allows the silicone grease to flow through the steel mesh layer 311 of the adhesive-coating steel mesh 31 into the coating position 81 of the product 80, ensuring the reliability of the coating. It can be understood that after coating is completed, the second positioning drive 34 continues to drive the support plate 32 away from the stage 20 in a third direction, facilitating the replacement of the product 80 to be coated.

[0072] In some more preferred embodiments, a second slide rail 11 extends along a second direction on the mounting bracket 10, and a second slider 322 is provided on the support plate 32, the second slider 322 being slidably connected to the second slide rail 11. This allows the support plate 32 to be smoothly slidably connected to the mounting bracket 10 along the second direction, thereby improving the stability of the steel mesh mechanism 30.

[0073] Example 2:

[0074] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that this embodiment further optimizes the structure of the adhesive coating device of the present invention. Please refer to the appendix. Figure 6 ~Appendix Figure 7 .

[0075] Please see below. Figure 6 , Figure 6 The diagram illustrates the structural relationship between the support base 51 and the suction assembly 52 in an embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, the suction mechanism 50 includes a support base 51 and a suction assembly 52. ​​The support base 51 is disposed on the mounting frame 10, and the suction assembly 52 is slidably connected to the support base 51 along a first direction.

[0076] In this embodiment, after the glue application mechanism 40 completes the glue application and scraping, it slides along the first direction toward the side away from the suction component 52, thereby avoiding the suction component 52. The suction component 52 slides along the first direction so that it picks up the product to be assembled and places it into the glue application area 82, thereby completing the assembly of the product.

[0077] In some preferred embodiments, the suction assembly 52 includes a connecting plate 521 and a suction nozzle 522. The connecting plate 521 is slidably connected to the support base 51, and the suction nozzle 522 is connected to the connecting plate 521. After the suction nozzle 522 picks up the product to be assembled, the connecting plate 521 slides, thereby causing the suction nozzle 522 to slide, so that the product to be assembled can be placed into the adhesive application area 82.

[0078] Furthermore, a movable plate 523 is provided between the nozzle 522 and the connecting plate 521. The movable plate 523 can be slidably connected to the connecting plate 521 in a third direction. The nozzle 522 is connected to the movable plate 523 so that the nozzle 522 can move closer to or further away from the adhesive application area 82 in a third direction.

[0079] In some preferred embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 The diagram illustrates the structural relationship between the platform 20 and the transmission bar 122 in an embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, the mounting frame 10 includes a third mounting plate 12, which has a mounting window 121. A transmission bar 122 extends along the second direction from the side of the mounting window 121. The platform 20 is mounted within the mounting window 121 and connected to the transmission bar 122. This allows the platform 20 to move within the mounting window 121 along the second direction. Thus, without moving the steel mesh mechanism 30, the position of the platform 20 can be moved to assemble products and / or replace the product 80 to be glued, thereby improving glue application efficiency, facilitating operation, and resulting in a more compact overall structure.

[0080] In some preferred embodiments, the adhesive application apparatus further includes a lifting mechanism 60, which includes a lifting plate 61 and a lifting drive 62. The lifting plate 61 is located below the platform 20, and the lifting drive 62 drives the lifting plate 61 to move closer to or away from the platform 20. The lifting drive 62 drives the lifting plate 61 to lift the platform 20, moving the platform 20 away from the transmission bar 122, so that the product on the platform 20 can be removed without stopping the transmission bar 122, thereby improving the adhesive application efficiency.

[0081] In some more preferred embodiments, the adhesive application apparatus further includes a stop mechanism 70 located on the movement path of the stage 20. The stop mechanism 70 stops the stage 20 at a preset position, ensuring the accuracy of the adhesive application assembly 42 in applying adhesive to the product 80. Thus, precise positioning of the stage 20 can be achieved without the need for an additional control system to control its pre-stop position, thereby reducing the failure rate.

[0082] Example 3:

[0083] Figure 8 A flowchart illustrating an embodiment of the adhesive application method of the present invention is shown. For example... Figure 8As shown, based on the adhesive application device, the method includes the following steps:

[0084] Step 110: Control the steel mesh mechanism to move to the preset position.

[0085] The stencil mechanism moves along the second direction to the top of the platform and creates a certain gap with the product to be coated on the platform. The stencil layer of the stencil mechanism is set to correspond to the coating position of the product to be coated, thereby ensuring that the silicone grease can flow into the coating position through the stencil layer.

[0086] Step 120: Control the glue application mechanism to move to the preset position.

[0087] In this process, the sliding plate of the glue-applying mechanism slides along the first direction, the glue-applying component slides relative to the sliding plate along the second direction, and the glue-applying component slides again relative to the sliding plate along the third direction to a preset position, that is, above the steel mesh mechanism.

[0088] Step 130: Control the adhesive application mechanism to spray silicone grease onto the steel mesh mechanism and then scrape the grease.

[0089] In this process, after the glue-applying mechanism moves to the preset position, the glue-applying component of the glue-applying mechanism sprays silicone grease toward the steel mesh mechanism. After the coating is completed, the glue-applying component stops spraying and slides along the second direction so that the scraper component can scrape off the excess silicone grease on the steel mesh mechanism.

[0090] Step 140: Control the steel mesh mechanism away from the platform.

[0091] After the glue scraping component completes the glue scraping, the control steel mesh mechanism moves away from the platform in the second direction, and a glued area is formed on the product after the glue is applied.

[0092] Step 150: Control the suction mechanism to pick up the product to be assembled and move it to the preset position, and place the product to be assembled on the glue application area of ​​the stage.

[0093] In this process, the suction component of the suction mechanism picks up the product to be assembled and moves it along the first direction to a preset position. The suction nozzle moves along the third direction to approach the glue application area and places the product to be assembled on the glue application area, thereby completing the assembly of the product.

[0094] The gluing apparatus and method of the present invention involve placing the product to be glued on a platform, with a gluing steel mesh positioned above the platform. The sliding plate of the gluing mechanism slides along a first direction, thereby moving the gluing component and the scraping component. The gluing component slides relative to the sliding plate along a second direction, causing the gluing component and the scraping component to move to a preset gluing position. The gluing component moves along a third direction and approaches the gluing steel mesh, thereby applying silicone grease to the gluing steel mesh. The silicone grease is applied to the gluing position of the product to be glued through the steel mesh layer of the gluing steel mesh. The scraping component scrapes the gluing steel mesh to remove excess silicone grease, thus preventing glue overflow from the glued product and making the overall gluing effect more uniform.

[0095] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0096] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the product of this invention is in use. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this invention. In addition, the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0097] Furthermore, terms such as "horizontal," "vertical," and "sag" do not imply that components must be absolutely horizontal or suspended, but rather that they can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal relative to "vertical," and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.

[0098] In this invention, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, "above or below" a first feature may include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on" the first feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the first feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0099] Although the description of the invention has been given in conjunction with the specific embodiments described above, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that many substitutions, modifications, and variations can be made based on the foregoing. Therefore, all such substitutions, modifications, and variations are included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
