Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of automation equipment, and in particular relates to an integrated equipment with integrated functions of gluing and screwing. Background Art

[0002] In modern industrial manufacturing, especially in the electronics, automobile, home appliance and precision instrument industries, the assembly process between workpieces and assemblies is a key link in the product production process. Common assembly processes usually include multiple independent and continuous steps, such as: applying glue to the workpiece to enhance the connection strength or achieve sealing function; positioning and aligning the assembly and the workpiece; and achieving structural fixed connection through screw locking and other methods.

[0003] However, in existing assembly equipment and processes, each of the above processes often needs to rely on different dedicated equipment to complete separately. For example, glue application is often completed using an independent automatic glue dispenser or manual operation, while screw locking needs to be transferred to another station (usually requiring workers to carry it in the middle) and completed by a multi-axis automatic screw locking machine or manual tightening. This decentralized processing method not only increases the time cost of material handling, but also easily leads to cumulative errors due to multiple positioning, thus affecting the final assembly accuracy and consistency.

[0048] 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.

[0049] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present invention (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0050] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the present invention is an integrated device with integrated gluing and screwing functions, which is used to tighten an assembly 10 onto a workpiece 11, and includes a machine table 2, a material transfer module 3, a gluing module 4, a receiving module 5 and a tightener 6.

[0051] Among them, the material transfer module 3 is movably arranged on the machine table 2, and can drive the workpiece 11 to switch arbitrarily between the gluing position and the screwing position of the machine table 2; the gluing module 4 includes a gluing component 40 for absorbing and releasing glue, and the gluing module 4 can drive the gluing component 40 to apply glue along the fitting part of the workpiece 11 and the assembly 10; the receiving module 5 is movably arranged on the machine table 2, and the receiving module 5 is used to place the assembly 10, and can drive the assembly 10 to be aligned with the workpiece 11 and move tightly; the tightener 6 is arranged on the machine table 2, and the tightener 6 is used to pass a plurality of screws through the assembly 10 in sequence and tighten them on the workpiece 11 to limit the movement of the assembly 10 relative to the workpiece 11; when the material transfer module 3 transfers the glued workpiece 11 to the screwing position, the receiving module 5 drives the assembly 10 to move tightly to the gluing part of the workpiece 11, so that the tightener 6 can fix the assembly 10 on the workpiece 11 through screws.

[0052] In this embodiment, glue needs to be applied to the workpiece 11 before the assembly 10 can be assembled by screws. Specifically, Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a worker or a manipulator can place the assembly 10 to be assembled in advance in the receiving module 5 located above the machine table 2, and ensure that it is fixed and in a horizontal position; at the same time, the material transfer module 3 is in Figure 1 and Figure 3 The screwing position shown in the figure, but it should be noted that this position not only provides operating space for subsequent screwing, but also provides sufficient space for placing the workpiece 11 before preparation. For this reason, the automatic material transfer module 3 realizes the precise conveying and positioning of the workpiece 11, avoiding the offset or error accumulation caused by manual handling; as the material transfer module 3 transports the workpiece 11 to the gluing position of the machine table 2 (i.e. Figure 3 At the other end of the position, that is, close to the glue coating module 4, not shown in the figure), the glue coating module 4 can be started and drive the glue coating part 40 to move along the set trajectory. During this process, the glue coating part 40 will absorb the glue in advance, and then driven by the glue coating module 4, it can be continuously coated with glue on the surface of the workpiece 11 (that is, the fitting surface with the assembly 10) according to the preset path. With the cooperation of the glue coating module 4 and the external control system, the glue coating part 40 has high-precision motion control capabilities, can adapt to the gluing path of complex shapes, and improve the consistency of gluing. This process also reduces manual intervention and avoids problems such as glue leakage and glue breakage that occur in traditional gluing processes. At this time, the material transfer module 3 acts again to transfer the workpiece 11 that has been glued from the gluing position to the screw tightening position (that is, Figure 1 and Figure 3 The position shown in the figure), relying on the existence of the material transfer module 3, the workpiece 11 can be seamlessly connected between different processes, reducing the intermediate handling time and improving the overall cycle efficiency; as the receiving module 5 drives the positioned assembly 10 to move along the direction of the workpiece 11 (it can be aligned by visual recognition or mechanical limit), the assembly 10 is brought into contact and pressed with the glue-coated surface of the workpiece 11 to form a preliminary bonding connection, and the automated centering and fitting operations effectively improve the consistency of the assembly, and the preliminary bonding helps the stability of the screw locking and reduces the risk of misalignment. Finally, the tightener 6 passes the screws through the assembly 10 and screws them into the screw holes of the workpiece 11 in sequence according to the preset sequence. The precise torque control ensures the quality of the screw locking and avoids structural loosening or damage caused by over-tightening or under-tightening. Therefore, the integrated equipment, with the coordinated cooperation of various modules, ensures the efficient and stable operation of the entire equipment, and also enhances the assembly consistency and quality stability of the product.

[0053] The material shifting module 3 comprises: a fixed seat 30, which is arranged on the machine table 2; a transmission rod 31 and a movable block 32, wherein the transmission rod 31 is movably connected to the fixed seat 30, one end of the transmission rod 31 is close to the glue coating member 40, and the other end is close to the tightener 6; the movable block 32 is movably sleeved on the transmission rod 31, so that when the transmission rod 31 performs a rotational motion, it can drive the movable block 32 to perform a linear reciprocating motion; a guide rail 33 and a guide block 34, wherein the guide rail 33 is parallel and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the transmission rod 31, the guide block 34 is movably clamped on the guide rail 33, and a material shifting plate 35 is connected to the guide block 34, and the bottom wall of the material shifting plate 35 is connected to the movable block 32.

[0054] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the transmission rod 31 in this embodiment can be fixed on the fixed seat 30 by a bearing or other appropriate movable connection method to ensure that it can rotate freely. When the system instruction (not shown in the figure) detects that the workpiece 11 to be assembled is accurately placed on the material transfer plate 35 (i.e. Figure 3 The driving device (such as a motor) starts and drives the transmission rod 31 to start rotating. Due to the special design between the transmission rod 31 and the movable block 32 (such as threaded fit), the rotational motion of the transmission rod 31 is converted into the linear reciprocating motion of the movable block 32. With the restraining effect of the guide block 34 and the guide rail 33, it is ensured that the material transfer plate 35 and the workpiece 11 thereon smoothly move toward the gluing position. After the gluing is completed, the return operation of the material transfer plate 35 along the original path is also the same, which will not be described in detail here. It should be noted that the structure and working principle of the transmission rod 31 and the movable block 32 in this embodiment can be borrowed from the ball screw structure in the machinery. The high precision and high stability of the ball screw are utilized to enable the workpiece 11 to be accurately delivered to the target position in a very short time. While improving production efficiency, it also effectively avoids the accumulation of errors during the movement process. In combination with the double-track guide mechanism, the load pressure is effectively dispersed, the service life of the equipment is extended, and maintenance and costs are reduced.

[0055] The receiving module 5 includes: a support 50, which is arranged on the machine table 2, and a driving cylinder 51 is installed on the support 50; a first slider 52 and a first slide rail 53, the first slide rail 53 is parallel to the guide rail 33, the first slider 52 is movably connected to the first slide rail 53, and a moving frame 54 is connected to the first slider 52, and the output end of the driving cylinder 51 is connected to the moving frame 54; a clamping component 55, which is arranged on the moving frame 54, and the output end of the clamping component 55 is connected to a support table 550, and a support hole 550a is opened in the support table 550, and the assembly 10 is placed in the support hole 550a.

[0056] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, when the glue - applying module 4 evenly applies glue to the workpiece 11, with the cooperation of the above - mentioned transmission rod 31 and the movable block 32, the material - moving plate 35 and the workpiece 11 thereon are transferred to Figure 1 or Figure 3 the position shown. At this time, the driving cylinder 51 can push the moving frame 54 to move along the first slide rail 53 to one side of the workpiece 11. During this process, the first slider 52 slides on the first slide rail 53, ensuring a stable and non - offset moving path, which provides a guarantee for the assembly 10 in the support hole 550a to be accurately aligned with the workpiece 11 on the material - moving plate 35. When the assembly 10 and the workpiece 11 are placed in alignment with a height difference (that is, at this time, the assembly 10 is directly above the workpiece 11), the pressing - close assembly 55 can adjust the height of the support table 550 according to the preset program. As the support table 550 slowly descends, the glue - coated surfaces of the assembly 10 and the workpiece 11 can be adhesively bonded. It should be noted that the support hole 550a in this embodiment can ensure that the assembly 10 is firmly held therein (it can adopt the way of interference fit or vacuum - chuck adsorption). Therefore, after the assembly 10 is pressed close to the workpiece 11 to achieve preliminary bonding, as the screwing device 6 passes several screws through the assembly 10 and tightens them on the workpiece 11 to ensure a firm connection between the two, the pressing - close assembly 55 can drive the support table 550 away from the material - moving plate 35. At this time, the assembly 10 is disengaged from the support hole 550a and assembled on the workpiece 11.

[0057] The pressing - close assembly 55 further includes: an adjusting cylinder 551, which is arranged on the moving frame 54. A guiding block 552 is connected between the output end of the adjusting cylinder 551 and the support table 550. The moving frame 54 is provided with a guiding groove 540 in the vertical direction, and the guiding block 552 is movably arranged in the guiding groove 540; a second slider 553 and a second slide rail 554. The second slide rail 554 is arranged on the side wall of the moving frame 54, and the second slider 553 is connected to the support table 550 and is movably clamped on the second slide rail 554.

[0058] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 when the above - mentioned driving cylinder 51 drives the pressing - close assembly 55 to be in Figure 1 or Figure 3When the transfer plate 35 at the screw-tightening position is aligned (alignment means that the assembly 10 on the support block and the workpiece 11 after glue application are aligned with a height difference), the adjusting cylinder 551 can drive the support table 550 to move downward and gradually approach the transfer plate 35 at this time, so that the assembly 10 in the support hole 550a and the workpiece 11 on the transfer plate 35 are initially bonded. During this process, on the one hand, in this embodiment, through the coordinated work of the second slide rail 554 and the second slider 553, the guiding and stability of the support table 550 driving the assembly 10 during the fitting process are enhanced. On the other hand, through the movement of the guiding block 552 in the guiding groove 540, the inclination phenomenon of the support table 550 driving the assembly 10 during the fitting process is effectively avoided, which affects the normal assembly operation, and provides guarantee for the accuracy and stability during the subsequent screw-tightening operation. In addition, the driving of the adjusting cylinder 551 makes the contact surface between the assembly 10 and the workpiece 11 maintain a uniform pressure, reduces manual participation, reduces human operation errors, effectively avoids misalignment or glue leakage caused by uneven local stress, and improves production efficiency and product yield.

[0059] Limit blocks 350 are connected to the bottom walls of both the transfer plate 35 and the moving frame 54. An installation seat 20 is provided on the machine table 2, and a buffer column 200 is provided on the installation seat 20. The limit block 350 is movably abutted against the buffer column 200.

[0060] Preferably, as Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, in this embodiment, whether it is the displacement of the transfer plate 35 or the moving frame 54, through the cooperation of the limit block 350 and the buffer column 200, it can ensure that the workpiece 11 can accurately switch freely between the screw-tightening position and the glue-application position, and ensure that the assembly 10 on the support table 550 is accurately aligned with the workpiece 11, effectively reducing the position deviation caused by mechanical errors. High-precision positioning helps to improve the overall assembly quality. Moreover, the buffer column 200 can absorb kinetic energy when the component reaches the required position, reduce the impact force, protect key components from being damaged by impact, and improve the stability and safety of the equipment. Further preferably, in this embodiment, the buffer column 200 can also be provided on the side wall of the moving frame 54 (not shown in the figure), and the flexible bonding of the assembly 10 and the workpiece 11 is realized by the guiding block 552 abutting against the buffer column 200.

[0061] The glue application member 40 includes a glue application needle head 400 and a glue application pump 401, and the glue application needle head 400 is connected to the glue application pump 401. The glue application module 4 further includes a lifting linear guide 41, the output end of the lifting linear guide 41 is connected to a lifting plate 42, and the glue application pump 401 is connected to the lifting plate 42.

[0062] Specifically, as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the glue application pump 401 in this embodiment is used to control the suction and output of glue, providing stable glue supply power to ensure that the glue can be accurately dispensed according to the control instructions. When performing the glue application process, the output end of the lifting linear guide 41 can drive the glue application pump 401 and the glue application needle 400 downward, so that the glue application needle 400 can perform the glue application operation along a preset trajectory on the workpiece 11.

[0063] A placement seat 21 is further provided on the machine table 2. A plurality of placement holes 210 and detectors 211 are provided in the placement seat 21. The placement holes 210 are used to fix the storage container, and each placement hole 210 is correspondingly provided with a detector 211.

[0064] Further, as Figure 2 shown, the placement seat 21 in this embodiment can be installed on the machine table 2 through components such as screws and bolts. This installation structure is simple and easy to operate, and also provides convenience for subsequent adjustment of the position of the placement seat 21. In addition, the placement holes 210 in this embodiment effectively limit the movement of the storage container, ensuring that the glue application pump 401 accurately drives the glue application needle 400 to extend into the storage container to suck the glue, while the detector 211 is used to detect whether the storage container is located in the placement hole 210, avoiding the empty stroke adsorption operation of the lifting linear guide 41 driving the glue application needle 400. When the glue application process is started, the system extracts the required glue measurement from the storage container according to the preset program, and then, under the combined action of the glue application module 4 and the lifting linear guide 41, completes the continuous glue application operation on the surface of the workpiece 11. Preferably, after the operation is completed, the glue application needle 400 can be positioned directly above the storage container after resetting, so as to prevent the residual glue from dripping onto the machine table 2 and affecting the overall smoothness.

[0065] The glue application module 4 further includes: a bracket 43 provided on the machine table 2; an X-axis transfer linear guide 44 and a Y-axis transfer linear guide 45. The X-axis transfer linear guide 44 is provided on the bracket 43, the Y-axis transfer linear guide 45 is connected to the output end of the X-axis transfer linear guide 44, and the lifting linear guide 41 is connected to the output end of the Y-axis transfer linear guide 45; a traction chain 46 is respectively provided on the X-axis transfer linear guide 44, the Y-axis transfer linear guide 45, and the lifting linear guide 41, and each traction chain 46 is respectively connected to the output end of the X-axis transfer linear guide 44, the output end of the Y-axis transfer linear guide 45, and the output end of the lifting linear guide 41.

[0066] Further preferably, as Figure 2As shown in the figure, it should be noted that in this embodiment, the movement of the above-mentioned lifting linear guide 41 driving the glue application needle head 400 and the glue application pump 401 in the vertical direction is equivalent to the free movement on the Z axis. In cooperation with the X-axis material transfer linear guide 44 and the Y-axis material transfer linear guide 45, the X / Y / Z three-axis linkage control is achieved, that is, by forming a continuous glue application trajectory in the three-dimensional space, the glue application needle head 400 can perform glue application operations on any plane or curved surface. The entire glue application path is automatically planned and executed by the control system without manual intervention, effectively avoiding common defects such as glue leakage, glue breakage, and wire drawing in traditional dotting, and significantly improving the product yield. In addition, in this embodiment, a traction chain 46 is connected to the driving components of each axis (i.e., the X-axis material transfer linear guide 44, the Y-axis material transfer linear guide 45, and the lifting linear guide 41), and each traction chain 46 is respectively connected to the output end of the driving component. The structure of the traction chain 46 enhances the mechanical rigidity, avoids jitter or deviation caused by load eccentricity, and improves the reliability and stability of the operation of the whole machine.

[0067] The tightening device 6 includes: a fixed rod 60 and a movable guide sleeve 61. The fixed rod 60 is arranged on the machine table 2 in the vertical direction, and the movable guide sleeve 61 is movably sleeved on the fixed rod 60; a telescopic cylinder 62 and a tightening member 63. The telescopic cylinder 62 is connected to the movable guide sleeve 61, the output end of the telescopic cylinder 62 is connected with a reference seat, the tightening member 63 is installed on the reference seat in the vertical direction, and a tightening head 64 for tightening the screw is connected to the bottom of the tightening member 63.
