[0067] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0068] See also Figure 1 The figure shows a perspective view of the automated terminal pre-processing device 1 provided in an embodiment of the present application, with the upper cabinet portion removed. The automated terminal pre-processing device 1 includes a material tray 12, a feeding mechanism 13, a cutting device 14, a loading mechanism 15, a cleaning device 16, a transfer device 17, a cleaning liquid tank 18, a treatment liquid tank 19, a drying device 20, and a discharge mechanism 21.

[0069] Please also see Figure 2The material tray 12 is used to provide the terminal material strip 5. In this embodiment, the terminal material strip 5 is wound around the rotating shaft of the material tray 12 and includes a material strip 51 and terminals 52. The terminals 52 are fixed to one side of the material strip 51 and are arranged at intervals along one side of the material strip 51. A protective structure 53 is provided between the terminals 52. The protective structure 53 is connected to the side of the material strip 51 and is used to protect the specific structure on the terminals 52 from being compressed.

[0070] Please continue reading Figure 1 The automated terminal pre-processing device 1 is also provided with a track 22. After one end of the terminal strip 5 comes out of the material tray 12, it can pass through the cutting device 14 along the track 22 and extend to the location of the feeding mechanism 15. Specifically, in this embodiment, the track 22 includes a front track 221, a middle track 222, and a rear track 223. A feeding mechanism 13 is provided between the front track 221 and the middle track 222, and a cutting device 14 is provided between the middle track 222 and the rear track 223. In other embodiments, the middle track 222 can be omitted, and the feeding mechanism 13 and the cutting device 14 are sequentially provided between the front track 221 and the rear track 223. In this embodiment, the feeding mechanism 13 pulls the terminal strip 5 from the tray 12 and advances the terminal strip 5 along the track 22. The terminal strip 5 is cut into segments 54 by the cutting device 14 at the cutting device 14. The cutting device 14 also cuts off the protective structure 53 on the terminal strip 5. The cutting device 14 is adjacent to the rear track 223, and the segments 54 cut by the cutting device 14 are located on the rear track 223.

[0071] The cleaning device 16 is positioned behind the rear track 223, extending approximately perpendicularly to the rear track 223. Specifically, the rear track 223 extends along a first direction w1, and the cleaning device 16 extends along a second direction w2, with the first direction w1 and the second direction w2 being approximately perpendicular. The loading mechanism 15 is supported by two supports 151 and straddles the cleaning device 16. The loading mechanism 15 includes an operating module 150, which reciprocates between the rear track 223 and the cleaning device 16 to transfer the material segments 54 cut by the cutting device 14 to the cleaning device 16.

[0072] The cleaning device 16 is a trough structure, having a head end 161 and a tail end 162 along the second direction w2. The head end 161 is adjacent to the rear track 223 and provides a loading position. The tail end 162 is adjacent to the transfer device 17 and the cleaning liquid tank 18. The cleaning device 16 includes a conveyor 163 and a fixture 164 fixed to the conveyor 163. The conveyor 163 is arranged and operates along the second direction w2. Multiple fixtures 164 are spaced apart along the direction of operation of the conveyor 163 to secure the material segments 54. After the loading mechanism 15 transfers the material segments 54 to a fixture 164 located at the loading position, the conveyor 163 moves forward a predetermined distance in the second direction w2, positioning the next fixture 164 at the loading position. This allows the loading mechanism 15 to place the next material segment 54 on the fixture 164. As the conveyor 163 advances, the material segments 54 are sequentially transferred to the rear end 162 of the cleaning device 16. Cleaning fluid is contained within the cleaning device 16. When the material segments 54 are secured to the fixture 164, the cleaning fluid contacts the areas of the terminals 52 to be cleaned, cleaning the terminals 52 as the material segments 54 are transported from the leading end 161 to the rear end 162. Specifically, during the transport of the material segments 54 from the leading end 161 to the rear end 162, the material segments 54 themselves vibrate. This vibration increases the friction area and force between the cleaning fluid and the terminals 52, thereby achieving a better cleaning effect. In addition, to further improve the cleaning effect, the cleaning device 16 may further include a vibration device, which applies vibration to both the cleaning liquid and the terminal 52, thereby further increasing the friction area and force between the cleaning liquid and the terminal 52, thereby achieving a better cleaning effect. Specifically, in this embodiment, the vibration device is an ultrasonic device.

[0073] The transfer device 17 includes an operation module 170, which transfers the material segment 54 located at a specific position at the tail end 162 of the cleaning device 16 to the cleaning liquid tank 18. After the terminal 52 on the material segment 54 is cleaned by the cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid tank 18, the operation module 170 transfers the material segment 54 to the processing liquid tank 19. Thereafter, the operation module 170 transfers the material segment 54 to the drying device 20.

[0074] The transfer device 17 extends along the third direction w3 and includes a head end 172 , a tail end 173 and a middle section 174 . The head end 172 is adjacent to the cleaning device 16 , the tail end 173 is adjacent to the drying device 20 , and the middle section 174 is adjacent to the cleaning liquid tank 18 and the treatment liquid tank 19 .

[0075] The drying device 20 is a trough structure having a head end 201 and a tail end 202 along the fourth direction w4. The head end 201 is adjacent to the transfer device 17, and the tail end 202 is adjacent to the unloading mechanism 21. The drying device 20 is equipped with a conveyor 203 and a fixture 204 fixed to the conveyor 203. The conveyor 203 is arranged and operates along the fourth direction w4. A plurality of fixtures 204 are spaced apart along the direction of operation of the conveyor 203 and are used to secure the material segments 54. After the transfer device 17 transfers the material segments 54 to a fixture 204 located in the loading position, the conveyor 203 moves forward a predetermined distance along the fourth direction w4, positioning the next fixture 204 in the loading position. This allows the transfer device 17 to place the next material segment 54 on the fixture 204. In this manner, as the conveyor 203 advances, the material segments 54 are sequentially transferred to the tail end 202 of the drying device 20.

[0076] During the process of transporting the material segment 54 from the head end 201 to the tail end 202, the transport of the material segment 54 itself stirs the air, thereby facilitating the drying or curing of the treatment liquid on the terminal 52. In addition, to further enhance the drying or curing effect, the drying device 20 may further include an air supply device or a heating device, depending on the specific needs.

[0077] The unloading mechanism 21 is supported by a support 211 and mounted above the rear end 202 of the drying device 20. The unloading mechanism 21 is arranged along a first direction w1 and includes an operating module 210. The operating module 210 moves to remove the material segment 54 located at the unloading position at the rear end 202 of the drying device 20 from the automated terminal pre-processing device 1. In this manner, the automated terminal pre-processing device 1 completes the pre-processing of the terminals 52 on the material segment 54.

[0078] The automated terminal pre-treatment device 1 also includes a plasma cleaning device 22 for outputting (e.g., spraying) plasma to clean the terminal 52, thereby activating the activity of the terminal surface material and improving the terminal surface adhesion. In this embodiment, the plasma cleaning devices 22 are arranged in pairs of four, with each pair arranged opposite each other. The two pairs of plasma cleaning devices 22 are respectively arranged between the cleaning device 16 and the cleaning liquid tank 18, and between the processing liquid tank 19 and the drying device 20. When the transfer device 17 transfers the material segment 54 from the cleaning device 16 to the cleaning liquid tank 18, and transfers the material segment 54 from the processing liquid tank 19 to the drying device 20, the material segment passes through the plasma cleaning device 22, and the plasma cleaning device 22 outputs plasma to clean the terminal 52.

[0079] In this embodiment, the third direction w3 is parallel to the first direction w1, and the fourth direction w4 is opposite to the second direction w2. The main working parts of the automated terminal pre-processing device 1 are generally distributed in a "J" shape, so as to achieve a compact arrangement and at the same time avoid the need for complex motion design of the working modules of the loading mechanism 15, the transfer device 17 and the unloading device 21. For example, the azimuth arrangement of the rear section track 223 and the cleaning device 16 is such that the working module 150 of the loading mechanism 15 only needs to move up, down, left and right, avoiding complex motion designs such as rotation. For example, the azimuth arrangement between the transfer device 17 and the cleaning device 16, the cleaning liquid tank 18, the processing liquid tank 19, and the drying device 20 also avoids the need for complex motion designs such as rotation of the working module 170 of the transfer device 17.

[0080] In addition, since the cleaning device 16 and the drying device 20 are both designed to have multiple rows of fixing devices on the transmission device, the material segments 54 can be continuously received, and the terminals 52 on the material segments 54 can be cleaned / dried for a longer period of time, thereby not affecting production efficiency and improving the processing effect of the pre-treatment.

[0081] The following describes in detail the structure and operation of the main operating components provided in the embodiments of the present application.

[0082] Feeding mechanism 13

[0083] See also Figure 3FIG2 is a perspective schematic diagram of a feeding mechanism 13 provided in one embodiment of the present application. The feeding mechanism 13 includes a base 131, a guide rail module 132 mounted on the base 131, a power member 133, and an operating module 134 mounted on the guide rail module 132. In this embodiment, the guide rail module 132 includes a guide rail 1321 extending along a first direction w1 and mounted on the base 131 at both ends. The power member 133 is also mounted on the base 131 and drives the operating module 134 along the guide rail module 132, thereby enabling movement of the operating module 134 in the first direction w1. A sensor device 135 is also provided along the operating path of the operating module 134. The sensor device 135 may be a contact sensor used to control and reset the reciprocating motion of the feeding mechanism 13. The operating module 134 includes a mounting base 1340, a power member 1341, a guide rail module 1342, and a gripper module 1343. The mounting base 1340 is mounted on the guide rail module 132 and is driven by the power member 133 to move along the guide rail 1321. The power member 1341 is mounted on the mounting base 1340, and the guide rail module 1342 is mounted above the power member 1341. The guide rail module 1342 is provided with a guide rail 13421 extending along a fifth direction w5, wherein the fifth direction w5 is substantially perpendicular to the first direction w1. The gripper module 1343 is mounted on the guide rail module 1342 and has at least one pair of grippers 13431. Each pair of grippers 13431 is driven by the power member 1341 to move along the guide rail 13421 so that the two grippers 13431 move closer or further away, thereby grasping or releasing the terminal strip 5. In this embodiment, the power members 133 and 1341 are both cylinders. In other embodiments, the power members 133 and 1341 can be other power-providing devices, such as stepper motors.

[0084] Specifically, in this embodiment, the gripper 13431 is located on the path of the terminal strip 5, and the power part 1341 drives the gripper 13431 to move under the control of a control device to grab the terminal strip 5. Afterwards, the power part 133 drives the operating module 134 to move a predetermined distance on the guide rail module 132 under the control of the control device, thereby realizing the function of delivering a predetermined length of terminal strip 5 from the tray 12.

[0085] Cutting device 14

[0086] See also Figure 4, which is a perspective schematic diagram of a cutting device 14 provided in one embodiment of the present application. The cutting device 14 includes a base 141, a power member 142, and a cutter module 143. In this embodiment, the power member 142 is mounted on the base 141. The cutter module 143 includes a blade portion 1431 and a mating portion 1433. The blade portion 1431 and the mating portion 1433 are disposed opposite each other. In this embodiment, the blade portion 1431 is mounted on the end of the power member 142 and is driven by the power member 142 to reciprocate along the second direction w2 and the fourth direction w4. The mating portion 1433 is disposed on the base 141, opposite the blade portion 1431. The blade portion 1431 includes a first blade 14311 and a second blade 14312 arranged sequentially along a first direction. The first blade 14311 is positioned away from the rear guide rail 223, while the second blade 14311 is positioned closer to the rear guide rail 223. The second blade 14311 is used to cut the terminal strip 5, forming a segment 54 of a predetermined length on the rear guide rail 223. There are multiple first blades 14311, the number of which corresponds to the number of terminals 52 on the segment 54 of the predetermined length. The multiple first blades 14311 are arranged in a row along the first direction w1 to cut the protective structure 53 on one side of the terminal.

[0087] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the cutting action is not being performed, a gap 1434 is defined between the blade portion 1431 and the mating portion 1433. The gap 1434 is substantially aligned with the rear rail 223. The terminal strip 5 passes through the gap 1434, and the terminals 52 and protective structure 53 on the terminal strip 5 are located outside the gap 1434. When the cutting action is being performed, the power member 142 drives the blade portion 1431 toward the mating portion 1433. The first blade 14311 cooperates with the mating portion 1433 to cut the protective structure 53 on the material segment 54 within a preset length. The second blade 14312 cooperates with the mating portion 1433 to cut the terminal strip 55, thereby separating the terminal strip 5 on the rear rail 223 into a single material segment 54 of a preset length.

[0088] In this embodiment, the power member 142 is a cylinder. In other embodiments, the power member 142 can also be a motor or a combination of a motor and a transmission device. In this embodiment, the blade portion 1431 is mounted at the end of the power member 142 and is driven to move by the power member 142. In other embodiments, the mating portion 1433 can also be mounted at the end of the power member 142, and the power member 142 can drive the mating portion 1433 to move to cut the terminal strip 5 and the protective structure 53. In this embodiment, the blade portion 1431 and the mating portion 1433 cooperate with each other to achieve cutting by shearing force.

The gripper module 152 is driven by the power member 1561 to move along the guide rail 1571, thereby realizing the movement of the gripper module 152 in the third dimension, so that the two paired grippers of the gripper module 152 are close to or away from each other, realizing the grasping or placing of the terminal 52 on the material segment 54.

[0091] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first seat body 155 has a starting position and an end position in the sixth direction w6, the starting position corresponds to the rear track 223, and the end position corresponds to the loading position in the cleaning device 16. To complete a loading action, first, in the first step, the first seat body 155 is located at the starting position or is driven back to the starting position by the power member 154. In the second step, the second seat body 256 is driven by the power member 1552 to descend along the seventh direction w7 to the position of the terminal 52. In the third step, the gripper module The gripper of the gripper module 152 is driven by the power member 1561 to grab the terminal 52. In the fourth step, the second seat 256 is driven by the power member 1552 to move upward along the seventh direction w7. In the fifth step, the first seat 155 is driven by the power member 154 to reach the end position. In the sixth step, the second seat 256 is driven by the power member 1552 to descend along the seventh direction w7. In the next step, the gripper of the gripper module 152 is driven by the power member 1561 to release the terminal 52. At this time, the material strip 51 connected to the terminal 52 is fixed to the fixing device 164 of the cleaning device 16. In this way, the gripper module 152 is moved in three mutually perpendicular directions, completing the transfer of the material segment 54 and the terminal 52 on the material segment 54 from the rear track 223 to the cleaning device 16.

[0092] It is understood that in other embodiments, the steps of the above-mentioned loading action can be changed in order as needed. In addition, in other embodiments, the power member 1561 can also be installed on the third base body 157.

[0093] Cleaning device 16

[0094] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7The figures are respectively a three-dimensional schematic diagram and an exploded schematic diagram of a cleaning device 16 provided in one embodiment of the present application. The cleaning device 16 includes a trough body 160, on which a cleaning trough 165 is provided for holding a cleaning liquid. The cleaning device 16 also includes a transmission device 163 located in the cleaning trough 165 and a fixing device 164 fixed to the transmission device 163. The transmission device 163 is driven by a power member 166 disposed outside the trough body 160 and circulates back and forth between the head end 161 and the tail end 162 of the cleaning device 16. In this embodiment, the transmission device 163 adopts a chain drive method. The transmission device 163 is fixed with a fixing device 164 at a preset distance along the second direction w2. The fixing device 164 moves with the movement of the transmission device 163. In this embodiment, the fixing device 164 is in the shape of an elongated strip, the length of which is substantially adapted to the length of the material segment 54, and the length direction thereof is the same as the first direction w1. The fixing device 164 is provided with a fixing portion 1640. In this embodiment, the fixing portion 1640 is a groove 1641, which is used to clamp the material segment 54. The opening of the groove 1641 is flared to facilitate the insertion of the material segment 54 by the loading mechanism 15. In this embodiment, an ultrasonic device 167 is embedded below the bottom of the cleaning tank 165. In other embodiments, the ultrasonic device 167 can be located at any suitable location within the cleaning tank 165. The ultrasonic device 167 can also be replaced by other vibration devices.

[0095] In this embodiment, after the material segment 54 is fixed to the fixing device 164 at the loading position by the feeding mechanism 15, the fixing device 164 is driven by the transmission device 163 to move forward along the second direction w2 a predetermined distance. This predetermined distance is just enough to allow the next fixing device 164 to be in the loading position. The feeding mechanism 15 then fixes another material segment 54 to the next fixing device 164, and the process is repeated. As the transmission device 163 drives the fixing device 164 forward, the subsequent fixing devices 164 are successively loaded with the loading segment 54. Since the material segments 54 are loaded and gradually sent to the tail end 162, during this process, the terminals 52 on the material segments 54 are in contact with the cleaning liquid for a longer time. In addition, the progressive forward movement of the transmission device 163 also generates vibration. Therefore, in some cases, even without the addition of a vibration device, the desired good cleaning effect can be achieved. In addition, by adopting the design of the transmission device 163 plus multiple rows of fixing devices 164, after the first material segment 54 is sent to the tail end 162, a continuous supply of material segments 54 can be connected for subsequent processing without any pause in the middle. In this way, it is achieved that the production efficiency is not affected and the processing effect of the pre-treatment is improved.

[0096] In this embodiment, the cleaning liquid is alcohol.

[0097] In this embodiment, after the fixing device 164 and the material segment 54 on the fixing device 164 are transported to the tail end 162 at the upper side end of the transmission device 163, the material segment 54 is grabbed by the transfer device 17, and the empty fixing device 164 is returned to the head end 161 from the back end of the transmission device 163.

[0098] In this embodiment, brackets 1631 are provided at both ends of the transmission device 163, and the brackets 1631 are fixed to the bottom of the cleaning tank 165. A rotating wheel 1632 is provided on the bracket 1631. The rotating wheel 1632 is connected to the power piece 166 arranged on the outside of the tank body 160 via a transmission device 167 (only one gear is shown), and is driven to rotate by the power piece 166, thereby driving the transmission device 163 to transmit the material segment 54 along the second direction w2.

[0099] Transfer device 17

[0100] See also Figure 8 FIG2 is a perspective view of a transfer device 17 provided in one embodiment of the present application. The transfer device 17 is supported by two or more legs and is arranged at the rear side of the cleaning device 16, the cleaning liquid tank 18, the processing liquid tank 19, and the drying device 20. In this embodiment, the structure of the operation module 170 in the transfer device 17 is substantially the same as that of the operation module 150 in the loading mechanism 15, including a gripper module 171, multiple bases, and multiple power members. The operation mode of the operation module 170 is also substantially the same as that of the operation module 150, which will not be described in detail here. The difference is that, in this embodiment, the movement of the operation module 170 of the transfer device 17 in the first dimension is achieved by a power member motor (not shown) driving a screw mechanism 175. In addition, in this embodiment, there are two operation modules 170, one of which is used to transfer the material segment 54 on the fixing device 164 at a predetermined position in the cleaning device 16 to the cleaning liquid tank 18, and then to the processing liquid tank 19. Another operation module 170 is used to transfer the material segments 54 in the processing liquid tank 19 to the drying device 20 .

[0101] It can be understood that in other embodiments, the number of operation modules 170 can also be one, and one operation module 170 transfers the material segment 54 on the fixing device 164 at a predetermined position in the cleaning device 16 to the cleaning liquid tank 18, and then transfers it to the processing liquid tank 19, and then transfers it to the drying device 20.

[0102] It is understood that when there are two operation modules 170, the two operation modules 170 can be driven by different motors and different screw mechanisms 175. The tail ends of the two screw mechanisms 175 are connected, and the two motors are respectively placed at the head ends of the two screw mechanisms 175.

[0103] Cleaning liquid tank 18 and treatment liquid tank 19

[0104] See also Figure 9 As shown, the cleaning liquid tank 18 is a tank structure including a tank body 180, with a cleaning tank 181 defined therein for containing the cleaning liquid. A fixing device 182 is provided within the cleaning tank 181. The structure of the fixing device 182 can be referred to as the fixing device 164 within the cleaning device 16, and includes a fixing portion 1820 for fixing the material segment 54. A detailed description thereof will not be repeated here.

[0105] The treatment liquid tank 19 is a tank structure including a tank body 190. A treatment tank 191 is defined in the tank body 190 for holding the treatment liquid. A fixing device 192 is provided within the treatment tank 191. The structure of the fixing device 192 can be referred to as the fixing device 164 within the cleaning device 16. The fixing device 192 includes a fixing portion 1920 for fixing the material segment 54, and will not be further described here.

[0106] The length directions of the fixing devices 182 and 192 are both along the third direction w3. It is understood that the number of fixing devices 182 and 192 can be one or more. When multiple fixing devices 182 are provided, the multiple fixing devices 182 are arranged along the second direction w2; when multiple fixing devices 192 are provided, the multiple fixing devices 192 are arranged along the second direction w2.

[0107] In the present embodiment, cleaning fluid is clear water, and treatment fluid is glue.In other embodiments, cleaning fluid, cleaning fluid and treatment fluid all can be provided as required.In addition, according to actual needs, cleaning fluid tank 18 can also be cancelled.

[0108] Drying device 20

[0109] See also Figure 10, which is a perspective schematic diagram of a drying device in an embodiment of the present application. The structure of the drying device 20 is substantially the same as that of the cleaning device 16. It is also a tank structure and a transmission device 203 and a fixing device 204 are provided in the tank 200. Its operation mode is also substantially the same as that of the cleaning device 16. In brief, the transfer device 17 transfers the material segment 54 from the treatment liquid tank 19 to the fixing device 204 located at a predetermined position (i.e., the loading position) in the drying device 20. Then, the power member 205 transmission device 203 drives the fixing device 204 to move forward along the fourth direction w4 by a predetermined distance. This predetermined distance is just enough to allow the next fixing device 204 to be located at the loading position. The transfer device 17 then transfers another material segment 54 from the treatment liquid tank 19 to the next fixing device 204, and this process is repeated. As the conveying device 203 drives the fixing device 204 forward, the subsequent fixing devices 204 are successively loaded with the loading sections 54. Since the sections 54 are loaded and transported to the tail end 202 step by step, the terminals 52 on the sections 54 stay for a long time during this process. In addition, the transport of the sections 54 itself stirs the air, which is conducive to the drying or curing of the treatment liquid on the terminals 52. In addition, to further improve the drying or curing effect, the drying device 20 may further include an air supply device or a heating device. For example, an air supply device can be provided at different positions on the top of the tank body 200.

[0110] Unloading mechanism 21

[0111] See also Figure 11 , is a three-dimensional schematic diagram of a material unloading mechanism in one embodiment of the present application. The material unloading mechanism 21 is supported by a support 211 and mounted above the tail end 202 of the drying device 20. A guide rail 213 and a power member 214 are provided on the support 211. The guide rail 213 extends along a ninth direction w9, which is parallel to the first direction w1. An operation module 210 is provided on the guide rail 213. The operation module 210 includes a gripper module 215, a plurality of bases, and a plurality of power members. The operation module 210 has a starting position and an end position in the ninth direction. The starting position corresponds to a preset position of the tail end 202 of the drying device 20, and the end position is located outside the cabinet 11. The operation module 210 grabs the material segment 54 at a preset position in the drying device 20 at the starting position, transports the material segment 54 to the end position, and then puts it down. In this way, the material segment 54 on which the terminal 52 has been processed is removed from the automated terminal pre-processing machine 1. The structure of the operation module 210 is substantially the same as that of the operation module 150 in the feeding mechanism 15 , and its operating principle is also substantially the same as that of the operation module 150 , so the structure and operating principle of the operation module 210 are not repeated here.

[0112] See also Figure 12, which is a schematic diagram of a control system for controlling the operation of an automated terminal pre-processing device 1 provided in one embodiment of the present application.

[0113] The control system 23 includes a controller 230, a memory 231, a display device 117, an input device 118, and multiple sensors 232 located at various locations. The controller 230 is connected to the memory 231, the display device 117, the input device 118, the sensors 232, and the alarm device 119 to input or read data and output results. Specifically, the memory 231 stores the control program and control parameters of the automated terminal pre-processing device 1. The controller 230 retrieves the control program from the memory 231, executes the control program, and combines the inputs from the sensors 232 and the input device 118 to control the automated terminal pre-processing device 1 to perform automated operations. The controller 230 may be a central processing unit (CPU) or a microcontroller.

[0114] The control system 23 also includes power components installed at each operating component. By controlling these power components, each operating component is controlled, so that each operating component performs the corresponding operation in sequence and cooperates to complete the pre-processing of the terminal. Specifically, the control system 23 includes power components installed in the feeding mechanism 13, cutting device 14, loading mechanism 15, cleaning device 16, transfer device 17, drying device 20, unloading mechanism 21, and plasma cleaning device 22. For the sake of simplicity, Figure 12 Each power component in these mechanisms / devices is not specifically shown in the figure, but all power components in each mechanism / device are collectively referred to as "power components". The number and function of the power components in each mechanism / device can be referred to in the above description.

[0115] In another embodiment, the control system 23 may further include a vibration device 233 and an air supply and / or heating device 234 .

[0116] See also Figure 13FIG. 2 shows an example of the distribution of sensor devices in a control system 23 according to one embodiment. In this embodiment, the control system 23 includes five sensor devices 232, namely, a track-end sensor device 2321, a cleaning device tail-end sensor device 2322, a drying device head-end sensor device 2323, a drying device tail-end sensor device 2324, and a cutting device end sensor device 2325.

[0118] See also Figure 14 In operation 1501 , the controller 230 controls the feeding mechanism 130 to pull the terminal strip 5 out of the tray 12 .

[0119] In operation 1502 , the controller 230 controls the cutting device 14 to cut a blank section 54 from the pulled terminal strip 5 .

[0120] In operation 1503 , the controller 230 controls the loading mechanism 15 to transfer the material section 54 to the cleaning device 16 .

[0121] In operation 1504 , the controller 230 controls the cleaning device 16 to transfer the log 54 from the head end 161 of the cleaning device 16 to the tail end 162 of the cleaning device 16 .

[0123] In operation 1506 , the controller 230 controls the drying device 20 to transfer the log section 54 from the head end 201 of the drying device 20 to the tail end 202 of the drying device 20 .

[0124] In operation 1507 , the controller 230 controls the unloading mechanism 21 to transfer the material segment 54 from the drying device 20 out of the automated terminal pre-processing device 1 .

[0125] The following describes in detail how the controller 230 controls the working components at each working stage.

[0126] Initialization and initial operations

[0127] After the automated terminal pre-processing device 1 is powered on, it performs initialization operations and controls the operating modules of each operating component to reset (i.e., return to their initial state). The controller 230 then determines whether it has received a sensing signal from the cutting device-side sensor 2325. In this embodiment, upon sensing the presence of a terminal 52 near the second blade 14312, the cutting device-side sensor 2321 generates a sensing signal and sends it to the controller 230. If it does not receive a sensing signal from the cutting device-side sensor 2325, the controller 230 controls the feed mechanism 13 to continue feeding until it receives a sensing signal from the cutting device-side sensor 2321. After receiving the sensing signal from the cutting device-side sensor 2321, the controller 230 controls the cutting device 14 to perform cutting and controls the operating module 134 of the feed mechanism to reset. After cutting is complete, the controller 230 controls the cutter module 143 of the cutting device 14 to reset. Thus, the initialization and initialization operations are completed.

[0128] Feeding, cutting, loading and cleaning control

[0129] See also Figure 15 First, in operation 1601, the controller 230 determines whether it has received a sensing signal sent by the track end sensor device 2321. In this embodiment, the track end sensor device 2321 generates a sensing signal and sends it to the controller 230 when it senses the presence of the terminal 52 at the end of the rear track 223.

[0130] If the sensing signal sent by the track end sensing device 2321 is not received, then in operation 1602 , the controller 230 controls the feeding mechanism 13 to feed the material, and the process returns to operation 1601 .

[0131] If the sensing signal sent by the rail end sensor device 2321 is received, then in operation 1603, the controller 230 controls the cutting device 14 to perform cutting and controls the operation module 134 of the feeding mechanism to reset.

[0132] In operation 1604 , after waiting for a preset time, the controller 230 controls the cutter module 143 of the cutting device 14 to reset, and controls the loading mechanism 13 to grab the material segment 54 on the rear track 223 and transfer it to the cleaning device 16 .

[0133] In operation 1605 , the controller 230 controls the operation module 150 of the loading mechanism 13 to reset, and controls the cleaning device 16 to move forward a first preset distance, and the process returns to operation 1601 .

[0134] In another embodiment, in operation 1605 , the controller 230 further controls the vibration device 233 to vibrate for a preset time.

[0135] Handling and drying control

[0136] See also Figure 16 In operation 1701 , the controller 230 receives a sensing signal sent by the cleaning device tail end sensing device 2322 .

[0137] In operation 1702 , the controller 230 controls the transfer device 17 to start and transfer the material segment 54 located on the last fixing device 164 at the rear end 162 of the cleaning device 16 to the cleaning liquid tank 18 .

[0138] In operation 1703 , the controller 230 controls the transfer device 17 to transfer the material segment 54 in the cleaning liquid tank 18 to the processing liquid tank 19 .

[0139] In operation 1704 , the controller 230 controls the transfer device 17 to transfer the material segment 54 in the treatment liquid tank 19 to the drying device 20 .

[0140] In operation 1705 , the controller 230 receives a sensing signal sent by the drying device head end sensing device 2323 .

[0141] In operation 1706, the controller 230 controls the operating module in the transfer device 17 to reset and controls the drying device 20 to move forward a second preset distance. In this embodiment, the second preset distance is equal to the first preset distance. In other embodiments, the second preset distance may not be equal to the first preset distance.

[0142] In another embodiment, in operation 1706 , the controller 230 further controls the air supply and / or heating device 234 to operate for a preset time.

[0143] In another embodiment, operations 1702 and 1703 may be replaced by the controller 230 controlling the transfer device 17 to start and transfer the material segment 54 located on the last fixing device 164 at the rear end 162 of the cleaning device 16 to the processing liquid tank 19 .

[0144] In another embodiment, in operation 1702 , the controller 230 also controls the plasma cleaning device 22 to start.

[0145] Cutting control

[0146] See also Figure 17 In operation 1801 , the controller 230 receives a sensing signal sent by the drying device tail end sensing device 2324 .

[0147] In operation 1802 , the controller 230 controls the unloading mechanism 21 to start, and transfers the material segment 54 located on the last fixing device 204 at the rear end 202 of the drying device 20 to a predetermined position outside the cabinet 11 .

[0148] In operation 1803 , the controller 230 controls the operation module 210 in the unloading mechanism 21 to reset.

[0149] It can be understood that in other embodiments, the number of the sensor devices 232 can be reduced. For example, the sensor device 2323 at the head end of the drying device can be cancelled. After controlling the transfer device 17 to transfer the material section 54 to the drying device 20, the controller 230 can continue to control the drying device 20 to move forward a preset distance according to a timing relationship.

[0150] It is understood that in other embodiments, the number of the sensing devices 232 can be increased. For example, a sensing device can be provided at the head end of the cleaning device 16 corresponding to the position of the first fixing device 164, and the controller 232 controls the cleaning device 16 to move forward a preset distance based on the sensing signal of the sensing device. In addition, for example, a material shortage sensing device can also be provided. The material shortage sensing device monitors the thickness of the terminal strip 5 in the material tray 12. When the terminal strip 5 is continuously pulled out and the thickness reaches a predetermined value, a sensing signal is sent to the controller 230. After receiving the sensing signal sent by the material shortage sensing device, the controller 230 controls the alarm device 119 to sound an alarm to remind the staff to prepare the material.

[0151] It can be understood that after receiving the shutdown signal sent by the input device 118, the controller 230 controls each operating component to reset, and then the entire device stops operating.

[0152] Compared to the prior art, the automated terminal pre-processing device 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application uses an automated method to control the pre-processing of the terminal, which improves efficiency compared to manual gluing. In addition, the cleaning device 16 and the drying device 20 use a transmission device plus multiple rows of fixing devices to enable the terminals 52 on the material section 54 to be cleaned / dried for a longer period of time, thereby achieving both no impact on production efficiency and improved pre-processing results. Furthermore, the main operating components of the automated terminal pre-processing device 1 are arranged in a "J" shape, thus achieving a compact arrangement and avoiding the need for complex motion design for the operating modules of the loading mechanism 15, the transfer device 17, and the unloading device 21.
