Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of glue sticking equipment, and in particular to a high-efficiency and stable automatic glue sticking equipment and a control method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In the prior art, when packaging items, it is necessary to seal the edge of the packaging box with tape. In actual use, the existing gluing equipment often uses a gluing head to adhere the tape to the surface of the box, and then uses a knife to cut the tape to complete the packaging of the box.
[0003] However, in the prior art, when the tape is cut, one end of the cut tape loses tension. The sudden loss of tension will cause the tape to become unbalanced after cutting, and the edge of the tape will become wrinkled, bent or uneven. This phenomenon will cause the ends of the tape to pile up or stick together, making it difficult to adhere the tape flatly to the surface of the object during the subsequent tape pasting process, resulting in gaps or bubbles between the tape and the adherend, affecting the firmness and sealing of the pasting; in addition, the adhesion of the tape is achieved through the contact and adsorption of the adhesive layer with the surface of the adherend. When the ends of the tape are stuck together, part of the adhesive layer will contact each other instead of the adherend surface, affecting the subsequent use of the tape, and the stuck tape needs to be stopped for repair, which will also affect the gluing of the object.
[0004] To solve the above problems, we propose an efficient and stable automatic glue sticking equipment and its control method. Summary of the Invention

[0017] A control method for a high-efficiency and stable automatic glue laminating device is applied to the above-mentioned high-efficiency and stable automatic glue laminating device, comprising the following steps:
[0018] Step 1: Equipment inspection and cleaning:
[0019] Before starting the machine, the operator needs to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the automatic glue sticking equipment, including whether the power supply of the conveying device, the air source connection of the slide cylinder 1 and the slide cylinder 2 are stable, whether all components are operating normally, whether the sensors and control system are sensitive and reliable, and clean the dust and debris on the surface of the equipment to ensure that there is no residual glue or other dirt;
[0020] Step 2: Material preparation:
[0021] According to production requirements, select the appropriate specifications and types of tape and place them neatly in the feeding device. Then place the products or parts that need to be glued on the conveyor device, ensuring that they are positioned accurately and arranged neatly.
[0022] Step 3: Feeding:
[0023] Place the tape on the outer surface of the roller, pull the tape head so that the tape head passes through the slide groove and the slider until it is clamped and fixed by the first and second clamping blocks;
[0024] Step 4: Transport of items to be glued:
[0025] The guide mechanism and conveying device provided on the conveying device transport the object to be glued to the gluing position set by the system, and then the object to be glued is fixed by the positioning and clamping device, and the gluing head or extrusion rod, the limiter and the roller are controlled to stick the tape to the surface of the object to be glued;
[0026] Step 5: Splitting the tape:
[0027] After the tape is pasted, the cutting tool is used to cut the tape between the two objects to be glued. The cut tape is then supported by the edge support mechanism, and the clamping mechanism is moved to re-clamp the cut tape edge between the first and second clamping blocks.
[0028] Step 6: Testing:
[0029] The visual inspection system installed on the gluing platform is used to conduct real-time inspection of the quality of the product after gluing. The visual inspection system can identify whether the position of the tape is accurate, and whether there are defects such as bubbles, wrinkles, and missing tape.
[0030] Preferably, in step four, the gluing head will move to contact the surface of the object to be glued under the extension action of the output end of the push cylinder. After the gluing head moves to contact the surface of the object to be glued, appropriate pressure is applied to make the tape tightly adhere to the object to be glued.
[0031] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0032] By setting up four sets of limit sleeves and extrusion rods, the edge of the tape cutting position can be kept stable during tape cutting. During the tape cutting process, the tape edge is easily offset due to factors such as uneven external force or equipment vibration. The four sets of limit sleeves and extrusion rods can limit the tape edge from multiple directions, effectively resisting these interference factors, so that the tape remains in a straight state during cutting, thereby significantly improving cutting accuracy and avoiding curling of the tape edge after cutting. In addition, the stable tape edge helps to achieve a neater and smoother incision.
[0033] By setting the limiter and the roller, the tape can be firmly attached to the surface of the object to prevent the tape from deflecting or warping during the attachment process. The roller can apply uniform pressure to make the tape fully contact with the surface of the object and expel the air between the tape and the surface of the object, thereby enhancing the tightness of the fit. The continuous rolling of the roller further compacts the tape and eliminates possible wrinkles or bubbles.
[0034] The scraper is set to remove glue adhering to the surface of the cutting tool. During the tape cutting process, glue easily adheres to the surface of the tool. If it is not removed in time, as the glue continues to accumulate, it will gradually change the shape and sharpness of the tool's blade. The scraper can promptly and effectively remove glue from the tool surface, so that the tool always maintains a good cutting state, thereby ensuring that the cut tape edge is neat and smooth, and improving the cutting quality. In addition, glue adhering to the tool will cause unnecessary adhesion between the tape and the tool during cutting, which will not only affect the smooth cutting, but may also cause burrs or tears on the edge of the tape. The role of the scraper is to remove glue in time, reduce the adhesion between the tape and the tool, and enable the tape to be smoothly separated from the tool.
[0035] By setting the slider, baffle and tooth block, adhesion after the end of the tape breaks can be avoided, thereby avoiding defects such as wrinkles and bulges on the tape surface, preventing the tape from failing to adhere to the surface of the object during the subsequent tape pasting process, and affecting the quality of the finished product, thereby further completing the continuous operation of gluing the surface of the object to be glued.
[0036] By setting up the edge support mechanism and the clamping mechanism, continuous cutting and continuous attachment of the tape can be achieved. The synergistic effect of the edge support mechanism and the clamping mechanism can achieve seamless continuous operation and reduce the intermediate pause time. This continuous operation can greatly increase the number of adhesives applied per unit time, thereby improving overall production efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0050] See also Figures 1 to 9, an efficient and stable automatic glue sticking equipment, including a glue sticking platform 11, a roller 12 is installed on one side of the top of the glue sticking platform 11, and a tape 13 is installed on the outer surface of the roller 12; a conveying device 14 is installed in the middle of the upper surface of the glue sticking platform 11, and a guide mechanism is provided on the conveying device 14; a positioning clamping device 15 is installed on one side of the upper surface of the glue sticking platform 11, and the positioning clamping device 15 and the roller 12 are respectively located on both sides of the conveying device 14; a glue sticking head is provided on the upper surface of the glue sticking platform 11, and the glue sticking head is located on one side of the roller, and a pushing cylinder is fixedly installed on the glue sticking head, and a visual Detection system, the visual detection system is composed of a camera and an optical sensor; it should be noted that a guide mechanism is provided on the conveying device 14 to assist the stable movement of the items to be glued on the conveying device 14, and the gluing head is controlled to move by a pushing cylinder. The gluing head and the pushing cylinder are both existing technologies, so they will not be described in detail; the automatic gluing equipment also includes an auxiliary gluing mechanism 2, an edge supporting mechanism 3 and a clamping mechanism 4 arranged on the upper surface of the gluing platform 11, wherein the roller 12 and the gluing head, the auxiliary gluing mechanism 2, the edge supporting mechanism 3 and the clamping mechanism 4 are all located on the same side of the conveying device 14.
[0051] Among them, Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the auxiliary gluing mechanism 2 is provided on one side of the gluing head, and the auxiliary gluing mechanism 2 includes a support 21 installed on the upper surface of the gluing platform 11 by bolts, and a slide cylinder 22 is installed on the upper surface of the support 21 by bolts, and the output end of the slide cylinder 22 is connected to a track limit block 23, and a cutting tool 24 is installed on one side of the track limit block 23. The outer surface of the cutting tool 24 is symmetrically connected with two groups of damping spring telescopic rods 25, and one end of each damping spring telescopic rod 25 is connected to a positioning block 26. A scraper 27 is commonly connected between the two groups of positioning blocks 26, and the scraper 27 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the cutting tool 24, and one side of each positioning block 26 is connected to a limiting sleeve 28, and the interior of each limiting sleeve 28 is slidably connected to an extrusion rod 29; as shown Figure 6 As shown, the outer surface of the cutting tool 24 is symmetrically connected to the limiting member 2041 for rotation, each limiting member 2041 is connected to the connection between the cutting tool 24 with a torsion spring 2043, and one end of each limiting member 2041 is rotatably connected to the roller 2042.
[0052] In this embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, in the original state, the distance between the extrusion rod 29 and the tape 13 is smaller than the distance between the cutting tool 24 and the tape 13, and a connecting spring is connected between the end of the limiting sleeve 28 and the extrusion rod 29; Figure 5 、 Figure 6As shown, the limiting member 2041 and the cutting tool 24 are initially set at an angle; during specific use, the cutting tool 24 contacts the surface of the tape 13 located between the two objects to be glued, and the lateral displacement of the cutting tool 24 enters the gap between the two and cuts the tape 13. At this time, the limiting members 2041 set on both sides of the cutting tool 24 will respectively contact the surfaces of the two objects to be glued, thereby smoothing the cut tape 13 on the surface of the objects.
[0053] The scraper 27 is set to remove the glue adhering to the surface of the cutting tool 24. During the cutting process of the tape 13, the glue is easy to adhere to the surface of the tool. If it is not removed in time, as the glue continues to accumulate, the shape and sharpness of the blade of the tool will gradually change. The scraper 27 can remove the glue on the surface of the tool in a timely and effective manner, so that the tool always maintains a good cutting state, thereby ensuring that the edge of the cut tape 13 is neat and smooth, and the cutting quality is improved. In addition, the glue adhering to the tool will cause unnecessary adhesion between the tape 13 and the tool during cutting, which will not only affect the smooth progress of cutting, but may also cause burrs or tears on the edge of the tape 13. The function of the scraper 27 is to remove the glue in time, reduce the adhesion between the tape 13 and the tool, and enable the tape 13 to be smoothly separated from the tool.
[0054] Specifically, the track limit block 23 is slidably connected to the upper surface of the support 21, the cutting tool 24 is rectangular in shape, and there are four damping spring telescopic rods 25 in two groups. The four damping spring telescopic rods 25 are respectively arranged at the four corners of the rectangular edge of the cutting tool 24, and there are four positioning blocks 26, limiting sleeves 28 and extrusion rods 29. The scraper 27 is arranged between the four positioning blocks 26; there are two groups of four torsion springs 2043, and the two groups of torsion springs 2043 are axially symmetrically arranged with reference to the central axis of the cutting tool 24, and each group of torsion springs 2043 is vertically arranged on the upper and lower sides of the connection between the limit member 2041 and the cutting tool 24.
[0055] In this embodiment, by setting up four sets of limiting sleeves 28 and extrusion rods 29, the stability of the edge of the cutting position of the tape 13 can be maintained when the tape 13 is cut. During the cutting process of the tape 13, the edge of the tape 13 is easily offset due to factors such as uneven external force or equipment vibration. The four sets of limiting sleeves 28 and extrusion rods 29 can limit the edge of the tape 13 from multiple directions, effectively resisting these interference factors, so that the tape 13 remains in a straight state during cutting, thereby significantly improving the cutting accuracy and avoiding the curling of the edge of the tape 13 after cutting. In addition, the stable edge of the tape 13 helps the cutting tool 24 to cut the tape 13 into a neater and smoother incision.
[0056] See also Figure 3 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 The edge support mechanism 3 is arranged between the gluing head and the auxiliary gluing mechanism 2. The edge support mechanism 3 includes a vertical gear rod 31 connected to one side of the track limit block 23. The tooth surface of the vertical gear rod 31 is meshed with a gear 32. The tooth surface of the gear 32 is meshed with a horizontal gear rod 33. One end of the horizontal gear rod 33 is fixedly connected to a slider 34. A baffle 35 is symmetrically connected to one side of the slider 34. The outer surface of each baffle 35 is connected to a positioning spring 36. One end of each positioning spring 36 is connected to the outer surface of the slider 34. The side of the slider 34 is connected to a tooth block 37 in a vertically equidistant array.
[0057] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the gear 32 is rotatably connected to the inside of the support 21, the vertical gear rod 31 is slidably connected to the upper surface of the support 21, the vertical gear rod 31 and the horizontal gear rod 33 are perpendicular to each other, the horizontal gear rod 33 penetrates and is slidably connected to the inside of the support 21, and the slider 34 is slidably connected to the upper surface of the glue-applying platform 11; Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, a slide groove with a size that matches the tape 13 is opened on one side of the slider 34, and the slide groove is located on one side of the two baffles 35. The two baffles 35 and the two positioning springs 36 are symmetrically arranged with reference to the horizontal central axis of the slider 34; the inner wall of one side of the slide groove and the side wall of the tooth block 37 are located on the same plane, and the tooth block 37 is arranged on the side of the slider 34 close to the cutting tool 24.
[0058] One side surface of the baffle 35 is coated with an anti-stick coating, and one side surface of the tooth block 37 is coated with an easy-adhesion coating.
[0059] In this embodiment, the slider 34, the baffle 35 and the tooth block 37 are provided to prevent the edges of the cut tape 13 from sticking together after the end portion breaks. While the baffle 35 limits the position of the tape 13, the tooth block 37 prevents the edge of the cut tape 13 from sticking to other objects due to the force generated by the instantaneous break. If the edges of the tape 13 stick together after breaking, defects such as wrinkles and protrusions will appear on the surface of the tape 13. After the cutting tool 24 cuts the tape 13, the end portion of the tape 13 is supported by the object to be glued, and the tooth block 37 is used to support the tape 13 on the side of the object to be glued, so as to prevent the tape 13 from sticking, thereby avoiding affecting the subsequent tape pasting process.
[0060] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 7 and Figure 9The clamping mechanism 4 is provided on one side of the auxiliary glue-sticking mechanism 2. The clamping mechanism 4 includes a slide cylinder 2 41 fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the glue-sticking platform 11. The output end of the slide cylinder 2 41 is fixedly connected to the sliding platform 42. The outer surface of one side of the sliding platform 42 is connected to a clamping block 1 43. The upper surface of the sliding platform 42 is fixedly connected to a telescopic cylinder 44. The output end of the telescopic cylinder 44 is rotatably connected to a clamping block 2 45 through a pin shaft. The middle part of the clamping block 2 45 is rotatably connected to the clamping block 1 43.
[0061] The sliding platform 42 and the clamping block 1 43 are both slidably connected to the upper surface of the glue-applying platform 11 , and the clamping block 1 43 and the clamping block 2 45 together form a clamp with a clamping function.
[0062] In this embodiment, under the action of the contraction of the output shaft of the telescopic cylinder 44, the clamp block 2 45 will rotate with the connection point between the clamp block 2 45 and the clamp block 1 43 as the fulcrum, thereby loosening the end of the tape 13 originally clamped by the clamp block 1 43 and the clamp block 2 45. As the sliding platform 42 moves toward the slider 34, the clamp block 1 43 and the clamp block 2 45 will contact the edge of the tape 13 restricted by the slider 34, and then the output end of the telescopic cylinder 44 will extend, causing the clamp block 2 45 to rotate on the clamp block 1 43, thereby clamping the edge of the tape 13.
[0063] The control method of the efficient and stable automatic glue laminating equipment includes the following steps:
[0064] Step 1: Equipment inspection and cleaning:
[0065] Before starting the machine, the operator needs to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the automatic glue sticking equipment, including whether the power supply of the conveying device 14, the air source connection of the slide cylinder 1 22 and the slide cylinder 2 41 are stable, whether all components are operating normally, whether the sensors and control system are sensitive and reliable, and clean the dust and debris on the surface of the equipment to ensure that there is no residual glue or other dirt;
[0066] Step 2: Material preparation:
[0067] According to production requirements, select the appropriate specifications and types of tape 13 and place it neatly in the feeding device. Then place the products or parts that need to be glued on the conveying device 14, ensuring that they are positioned accurately and arranged neatly.
[0068] Step 3: Feeding:
[0069] Place the tape 13 on the outer surface of the roller 12, and pull the rubber head of the tape 13 so that the rubber head passes through the slide 34 through the chute until it is clamped and fixed by the clamping block 1 43 and the clamping block 2 45;
[0070] The specific working process of this step is:
[0071] S3.1. The staff places the tape 13 on the surface of the roller 12, pulls the adhesive head of the tape 13, and then passes the pulled adhesive head through the adhesive head provided on the adhesive platform 11, through the slide groove provided on the slider 34, and finally fixes the pulled adhesive tape 13 by clamping block 1 43 and clamping block 2 45.
[0072] Step 4: Transport of items to be glued:
[0073] The guide mechanism provided on the conveying device 14 and the conveying device 14 convey the article to be glued to the gluing position set by the system. The gluing position is on the side of the cutting tool 24. The article to be glued is conveyed to the gluing position by the conveying device 14. Then, the article to be glued is fixed by the positioning and clamping device 15, and the gluing head or the extrusion rod 29 is controlled to stick the adhesive tape 13 to the surface of the article to be glued. The gluing head moves to contact the surface of the article to be glued under the extension action of the output end of the push cylinder. After the gluing head moves to contact the surface of the article to be glued, appropriate pressure is applied to make the adhesive tape 13 tightly adhere to the article to be glued.
[0074] The specific working process of this step is:
[0075] S4.1. The staff starts the conveying device 14 and transports the items to be glued through the conveying device 14. Figure 1 The direction of the middle arrow is the moving direction of the object to be glued. When the object to be glued is conveyed to the designated gluing position, that is, when any one of the multiple objects to be glued on the conveying device 14 moves to one side of the cutting tool 24, the gluing head will be driven by the pushing cylinder to move to the side of the tape 13 according to the preset path and speed, and stick the tape 13 to the surface of the object to be glued on the conveying device 14;
[0076] S4.2 The object to be glued is located at the gluing position of the conveying device 14. The tape 13 is pasted to the surface of the object to be glued by the squeezing rod 29. The staff starts the slide cylinder 1 22 by controlling the output end of the slide cylinder 1 22 to extend. At this time, the output end fixedly connected to the slide cylinder 1 22 drives the track limit block 23 to move. The track limit block 23 pushes the cutting tool 24 fixed on it to move, so that the cutting tool 24 moves toward the direction of the tape 13. For details, refer to Figure 4As the cutting tool 24 moves, it pushes the damping spring telescopic rod 25 connected to it to move, and drives the limiting sleeve 28 to move synchronously through the positioning block 26 fixedly connected to the damping spring telescopic rod 25. In this state, the limiting sleeve 28 pushes the squeezing rod 29 to move; It should be noted that, since the distance between the squeezing rod 29 and the tape 13 is smaller than the distance between the cutting tool 24 and the tape 13, and a connecting spring is fixedly connected between the limiting sleeve 28 and the squeezing rod 29, the squeezing rod 29 will first contact the surface of the tape 13, and as the cutting tool 24 continues to move, the squeezing rod 29 presses the tape 13 tightly onto the object to be glued;
[0077] It should be noted that in the above process, the conveying device 14, the gluing head and the positioning and clamping device 15 are all existing technologies, so they will not be described in detail here; the conveying device 14 is specifically a conveyor belt and a motor that drives the conveyor belt to rotate in this embodiment, and the positioning and clamping device 15 is specifically a clamp for the object to be glued in this embodiment.
[0078] Step 5: Splitting the tape 13:
[0079] After the tape 13 is pasted, the cutting blade 24 cuts the tape 13 between the two objects to be glued. The edge support mechanism 3 then supports the cut tape 13, and the clamping mechanism 4 moves to re-clamp the edge of the cut tape 13 between the clamping block 1 43 and the clamping block 2 45.
[0080] The specific working process of this step is:
[0081] S5.1. After the adhesive tape 13 is adhered to the surface of the object to be glued via the adhesive taping head or the extrusion rod 29, the slide cylinder 1 22 is further extended. The extrusion rod 29, under pressure from the adhesive tape 13 and the object to be glued, moves toward the interior of the limiting sleeve 28 and retracts into the limiting sleeve 28, simultaneously compressing the connecting spring disposed between the limiting sleeve 28 and the extrusion rod 29. When the connecting spring is fully compressed, the slide cylinder 1 22 is further extended, causing the track limit block 23 to push the cutting tool 24 to continue moving. The limiting sleeve 28 and the positioning block 26, under pressure from the adhesive tape 13 and the object to be glued, cannot move with the cutting tool 24, thereby compressing the damping spring telescopic rod 25. Subsequently, the cutting tool 24 contacts the adhesive tape 13, cutting the adhesive tape 13.
[0082] S5.2, during the movement of the cutting tool 24, the limit members 2041 connected to both sides of the cutting tool 24 will move accordingly. Since the limit members 2041 and the cutting tool 24 are initially tilted, during the movement of the cutting tool 24, the limit members 2041 will first contact the cutting tool 24 with the surface of the tape 13. As the cutting tool 24 moves, the roller 2042 connected to the inner part of the limit member 2041 will move along the surface of the tape 13 in the direction away from the cutting tool 24. For details, refer to Figure 6 During the movement of the limiting member 2041, the torsion spring 2043 provided between the limiting member 2041 and the cutting blade 24 will be synchronously compressed; in the above process, the roller 2042 will move along the limiting member 2041, and move between the adhesive tape 13 and the surface of the object on which the adhesive tape 13 has been pasted, so that the cut adhesive tape 13 is firmly attached to the surface of the object. By setting the limiting member 2041 and the roller 2042, the adhesive tape 13 can be firmly attached to the surface of the object, and the adhesive tape 13 can be prevented from deflecting or warping during the attachment process. The roller 2042 can apply uniform pressure to make the adhesive tape 13 fully contact with the surface of the object, and expel the air between the adhesive tape 13 and the surface of the object, thereby enhancing the tightness of the attachment. The continuous rolling of the roller 2042 further compacts the adhesive tape 13 and eliminates possible wrinkles or bubbles.
[0083] S5.3. After the cutting tool 24 has finished cutting the tape 13, the staff controls the slide cylinder 1 22 to retract through the controller. The contraction of the output end of the slide cylinder 1 22 causes the cutting tool 24 to return to its original position. The specific movement process is the reverse movement of the above process, so it will not be described in detail here. When the cutting tool 24 returns to its original position, the extrusion rod 29 loses the extrusion force from the tape 13 and returns to its initial state from the inside of the limit sleeve 28 under the rebound action of the connecting spring. At the same time, the damping spring telescopic rod 25 will simultaneously lose the extrusion force. Furthermore, due to the provision of the damping spring telescopic rod 25, the positioning block 26 drives the scraper 27 to slowly rebound on the surface of the cutting tool 24, thereby removing adhesive substances such as glue from the surface of the cutting tool 24 through the scraper 27. It should be noted that after the scraper 27 scrapes off the glue adhering to the cutting tool 24, the scraped glue will adhere to the surface of the scraper 27. The contact surface between the cutting tool 24 and the tape 13 is the tip of the cutting tool 24. In other words, the glue adhering to the tip of the cutting tool 24 is reduced, thereby preventing adhesion between the tape 13 and the cutting tool 24.
[0084] S5.4, in the process of the cutting tool 24 moving toward the adhesive tape 13 to cut the adhesive tape 13, the track limit block 23 pushes the cutting tool 24 to move, and at the same time, the vertical gear rod 31 on the surface of the track limit block 23 will move synchronously with the track limit block 23, and the vertical gear rod 31 drives the gear 32 meshing with it to rotate on the surface of the support 21, and the gear 32 drives the horizontal gear rod 33 meshing with it to move in the direction away from the cutting tool 24; therefore, after the cutting tool 24 has finished cutting the adhesive tape 13, the vertical gear rod 31, the gear 32 and the horizontal gear rod 33 will move in accordance with The above steps are reversed, causing the transverse gear rod 33 to move toward the cutting blade 24. The movement of the transverse gear rod 33 also drives the slider 34, which is fixedly connected thereto, to move synchronously, moving closer to the cutting blade 24. Because the tooth blocks 37 are coated with an adhesive coating, the edges of the cut tape 13 adhere to the surfaces of the tooth blocks 37. Furthermore, the tooth blocks 37, arranged in a vertically equidistant array, support the edges of the cut tape 13, preventing the tape 13 from breaking apart or curling after cutting, and preventing the edges of the cut tape 13 from becoming tangled.
[0085] S5.5. As the slider 34 moves toward the cutting tool 24, the staff can control the output end of the slide cylinder 2 41 to extend through the controller, and the output of the slide cylinder 2 41 can prompt the sliding platform 42 to move on the surface of the support 21 toward the slider 34; it should be noted that after the cutting tool 24 has completed cutting the tape 13 between the two glued objects, the positioning clamping device 15 releases the originally fixed objects, and the objects to be glued placed in sequence on the conveying device 14 will move forward one position under the action of the conveying device 14, that is, the first object to be glued located at the exit end of the conveying device 14 will be conveyed away from the conveying device 14; along with the conveying of the conveying device 14, the tape 13 remaining on the edge of the next object will be clamped by the clamping block 1 43 and the clamping block 2 45, completing the continuous movement of the tape 13 Traction, it should be noted that the edge of the adhesive tape 13 remaining on the side of the above-mentioned object to be glued is the edge of the adhesive tape 13 cut by the cutting tool 24 and remaining on the surface of the object in the previous process. When the object to be glued located closest to the outlet end of the conveying device 14 is conveyed by the conveying device 14 and leaves the gluing position, the output shaft of the telescopic cylinder 44 retracts, and the clamping block 2 45 connected to the telescopic cylinder 44 will be separated from the clamping state of the clamping block 1 43, and the end of the adhesive tape 13 remaining on the surface of the object will be released. As the object to be glued originally located at the second position is conveyed by the conveying device 14 to the position of the first object to be glued originally from the outlet end of the conveying device 14, the clamping block 1 43, the output shaft of the telescopic cylinder 44 and the clamping block 2 45 will move again according to the above steps, and the movement of the above-mentioned conveying device 14 will be repeated as the gluing process proceeds;
[0086] S5.6. The staff then controls the output end of the slide cylinder 2 41 to retract through the controller, prompting the sliding platform 42 to return to its initial position on the upper surface of the gluing platform 11. The gluing head then moves again to attach the tape 13 to the surface of the next object. The cutting tool 24 cuts the tape 13 again according to the above steps. The other structures move again according to the above steps, thereby achieving continuous attachment and cutting of the tape 13.
[0087] By setting up the edge support mechanism 3 and the clamping mechanism 4, continuous cutting of the tape 13 and continuous attachment of the tape 13 can be achieved. The synergistic effect of the edge support mechanism and the clamping mechanism can achieve seamless continuous operation and reduce the intermediate pause time. This continuous operation can greatly increase the number of adhesives applied per unit time, thereby improving the overall production efficiency.
[0088] Step 6: Testing:
[0089] The visual inspection system installed on the gluing platform is used to perform real-time inspection on the quality of the product after gluing. The visual inspection system can identify whether the position of the tape 13 is accurate, and whether there are defects such as bubbles, wrinkles, and missing stickers.
