[0036] The present invention provides a transformer baking and impregnation device, comprising a first baking mechanism 11, a second baking mechanism, a gripping mechanism 13 located between the first baking mechanism 11 and the second baking mechanism, a coating mechanism 14 located on one side of the gripping mechanism 13, and a conveying device 16 located on one side of the first baking mechanism 11; the first baking mechanism 11 includes a first baking device 111 and a first feeding device 112 and a first unloading device 113 located at both ends of the first baking device 111; the first unloading device 113 includes a first mounting frame 1131 connected to the first baking device 111, a lifting assembly 1133 mounted on the first mounting frame 1131 and close to the gripping mechanism 13, and a first moving assembly 1132 mounted on the first mounting frame 1131 for placing the transformer 17 of the first baking device 111 onto the lifting assembly 1133; the lifting assembly 1133 is used to push out the fixture 171 on the transformer 17; the gripping mechanism 13 includes a mounting base 131, a robotic arm 132 mounted on the mounting base 131, and a conveying device 16 mounted on the machine. The gripping device 134 on the robotic arm 132 includes an extension column 1341 mounted on the robotic arm 132, a first motor located above the extension column 1341 for driving the extension column 1341 to rotate, a mounting plate 1342 mounted on the extension column 1341, and a first gripping assembly connected to both sides of the mounting plate 1342 for gripping a fixture 171 placed on a conveying device 16, and a second gripping assembly with a gripping transformer 17 placed on a painting mechanism 14 and a second baking mechanism, respectively; the painting mechanism 1 4. Includes a fixed frame 141, a varnish-immersing tank 142 installed in the fixed frame 141 for placing the transformer 17 for varnishing, and a varnish-coating device 144 installed in the fixed frame 141 and movable along the length of the varnish-immersing tank 142 for varnishing the coil of the transformer 17; a second baking mechanism, including a second baking device 121 and a drying table 122 located at one end of the second baking device 121, wherein a gripping mechanism 13 grips the transformer 17 in the varnish-immersing tank 142, places it on the drying table 122 for drying, and then moves it to the second baking device 121.
[0037] The first baking mechanism 11 is used to dry the moisture on the surface of the transformer 17. The gripping mechanism 13 is used to move the dried transformer 17 to the coating mechanism 14. After the coating mechanism 14 completes the insulation treatment by coating the transformer 17, the gripping mechanism 13 grips the insulation-treated transformer 17 again and places it in the second drying mechanism to dry the paint adhering to the transformer 17, thereby accelerating the drying efficiency. When the transformer 17 is subjected to insulation processing, firstly, the first feeding device 112 grips the transformer 17 at a specific position and places it in the first baking mechanism. On the first baking device 111, while drying the transformer 17, the first baking device 111 moves the transformer 17 towards the first unloading device 113. When the first baking device 111 moves the transformer 17 onto the first unloading device 113, the lifting assembly 1133 pushes out the fixture 171 inside the transformer 17. The robotic arm 132 drives the gripping device 134 to move towards the lifting assembly 1133. The robotic arm 132 drives the gripping device 134 to move above the lifting assembly 1133, and the first gripping assembly grips the fixture 171. The first motor drives the extension column. 1341 rotates to position the second gripping assembly above the transformer 17. The second gripping assembly grips the transformer 17. After the second gripping assembly grips the transformer 17, the robotic arm 132 drives the gripping device 134 to move towards the conveying device 16, causing the first gripping assembly to place the fixture 171 on the conveying assembly. The conveying assembly then carries the fixture 171 away. The robotic arm 132 again drives the gripping device 134 to move towards the varnish impregnation tank 142, and the second gripping assembly places the transformer 17 into the varnish impregnation tank 142. The varnishing device 144 then insulates the coils of the transformer 17. After the insulation treatment is completed, the robotic arm 132 moves the gripping device 134 again, causing the second gripping component of the gripping device 134 to grip the insulated transformer 17 and place it on the drying table 122, causing excess paint on the transformer 17 to fall off. After drying, the second gripping component grips the transformer 17 again and places it in the second baking device 121 for drying. Through the above operations, the drying, varnishing, and post-varnishing drying of the transformer 17 form a complete process, reducing manual operation, thereby speeding up processing efficiency and increasing production capacity.
[0038] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The first feeding device 112 includes a second mounting frame 1121 installed at the end of the first baking device 111 away from the gripping mechanism 13, a platform 1123 installed on the second mounting frame 1121, and a second moving component 1122 installed on the second mounting frame 1121. The second moving component 1122 is used to grip the transformer 17 on the platform 1123 and place it on the first baking device 111. The second mounting frame 1121 is used to install the platform 1123 and the second moving component 1122. The platform 1123 is used for manually placing the transformer 17 or for a robot to place the transformer 17 on the platform 1123 to position the transformer 17. The second moving component 1122 grips the transformer 17 on the platform 1123 and places it on the first baking device 111. While baking the transformer 17, the first baking device 111 moves the transformer 17 toward the direction of the first unloading component.
[0039] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The lifting assembly 1133 includes a base plate 1134 mounted on a first mounting bracket 1131, a top plate 11331 mounted on the first mounting bracket 1131 above the base plate 1134 and opposite to the base plate 1134, a plurality of first cylinders 1135 mounted on the base plate 1134 and extending along the length of the base plate 1134, a first fixing plate 1136 connected to the first cylinders 1135, a plurality of fixing posts 1137 located at the corners of the first fixing plate 1136 and with one end passing through the top plate 11331, and a platform mounted on the top plate 11331 for placing the transformer 17. The first cylinders 1135 are connected to the first fixing plate 1134. 36 drives the fixed column 1137 to rise, so as to push out the jig 171 inside the transformer 17. The base plate 1134 is used to install the first cylinder 1135. The first fixed plate 1136 is installed on the first cylinder 1135. The fixed column 1137 is installed on the first fixed plate 1136. The platform is installed on the top plate 11331. One end of the fixed column 1137 passes through the top plate 11331. When the first cylinder 1135 drives the first fixed plate 1136 to move, the first fixed plate 1136 drives the fixed column 1137 to move. The fixed column 1137 moves relative to the top plate 11331, so as to push out the jig 171 placed on the platform inside the transformer 17.
[0040] In this embodiment, the transformer 17 is positioned by the fixture 171 during the production process, and it does not need to be disassembled manually before painting. The fixture 171 of the transformer 17 is disassembled by the lifting component 1133 to reduce manual operation.
[0041] The lifting assembly 1133 also includes a second fixing plate 1138 installed between the top plate 11331 and the bottom plate 1134, a first bidirectional cylinder installed on the second fixing plate 1138, and connecting plates 1139 respectively installed at both ends of the first bidirectional cylinder. The connecting plates 1139 are provided with multiple L-shaped pressure plates 1130. The first bidirectional cylinder drives the pressure plates 1130 to move away from or towards the platform. The second fixing plate 1138 is used to install the first bidirectional cylinder, and the connecting plates 1139 are installed at both ends of the first bidirectional cylinder. Multiple pressure plates 1130 can be installed on the connecting plate 1139 of the cylinder to reduce the installation of the first bidirectional cylinder. Before the fixing column 1137 pushes out of the fixture 171, the first bidirectional cylinder drives the connecting plates 1139 on both sides to move towards the transformer 17 respectively. When the connecting plate 1139 moves, it drives the pressure plate 1130 to move above the transformer 17, so that the pressure plate 1130 limits the transformer 17. When the fixing column 1137 pushes out of the fixture 171, the pressure plate 1130 limits the transformer 17 to prevent the transformer 17 from separating from the platform.
[0042] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 The first gripping assembly includes a first strip plate 1347 located below one side of the mounting plate 1342, a plurality of rodless cylinders 1348 mounted below the first strip plate 1347, first grippers 1349 connected to both sides of one end of the rodless cylinders 1348 for gripping the transformer 17, and a second cylinder 1340 connected to the mounting plate 1342 and connected to the first strip plate 1347 for driving the first strip plate 1347 to move; the second gripping assembly includes a second strip plate 1343 located below the other side of the mounting plate 1342, a plurality of second bidirectional cylinders 1344 mounted below the second strip plate 1343, second grippers 1345 connected to both ends of the second bidirectional cylinders 1344 for gripping the fixture 171, and a second gripper 1345 connected to the mounting plate 1342. A third cylinder 1346 is mounted on and connected to the second strip plate 1343 for driving the second strip plate 1343 to move. The second cylinder 1340 is fixed on the mounting plate 1342 and connected to the first strip plate 1347. The first strip plate 1347 is used to fix the rodless cylinder 1348. The first grippers 1349 are provided on both sides of one end of the rodless cylinder 1348. The second cylinder 1340 is used to drive the first strip plate 1347 to descend. The rodless cylinder 1348 is used to drive the first clamping gripper or releasing fixture 171. The third cylinder 1346 is mounted on the mounting plate 1342 and connected to the second strip plate 1343. The second strip plate 1343 is used to fix the second bidirectional cylinder 1344. The second grippers 1345 are fixed at both ends of the second bidirectional cylinder 1344.
[0043] When the robotic arm 132 drives the extension column 1341 to grasp the transformer 17, the first motor drives the first strip plate 1347 to be positioned opposite the lifting assembly 1133, and the second cylinder 1340 drives the first strip plate 1347 to move downward. When the first gripper 1349 is located on both sides of the fixture 171, the rodless cylinder 1348 drives the first gripper 1349 to grip the fixture 171, and the second cylinder 1340 drives the first strip plate 1347 to rise, causing the first gripper 1349 to move the fixture 171 away from the lifting assembly 1133. The first motor then drives the second strip plate 1343 to be positioned opposite the lifting assembly 1133, and the third cylinder 1346 drives the second strip plate 1343 to move downward, causing the second gripper 1345 to be located on both sides of the transformer 17. Cylinder 1344 drives the second gripper 1345 to grip the transformer 17, and the third cylinder 1346 drives the second strip plate 1343 to move upward, so that the second gripping component moves away from the lifting component 1133. The robotic arm 132 drives the mounting plate 1342 to move towards the conveying device 16, so that the first gripping component places the fixture 171 on the conveying device 16. The robotic arm 132 drives the mounting plate 1342 to move towards the painting mechanism 14, so that the second gripping component places the transformer 17 in the immersion tank 142. After the immersion tank 142 is painted, the second gripping component places the painted transformer 17 on the drying table 122. Finally, the second gripping component grabs the dried transformer 17 again and places it on the second baking device 121 to complete one process operation.
[0044] Please refer to Figure 8 The immersion tank 142 is also equipped with a sealing cover 143 that can be flipped on the immersion tank 142 and a fourth cylinder 145 connected at both ends to the immersion tank 142 and the sealing cover 143 respectively. The fourth cylinder 145 is used to drive the sealing cover 143 to open or close the immersion tank 142. Below the immersion tank 142, there is also an air extraction component for extracting air from the sealed immersion tank 142. The sealing cover 143 is used to close the immersion tank 142, the fourth cylinder 145 is used to drive the sealing cover 143 to open or close the immersion tank 142, and the extraction component is used to extract air from the sealed immersion tank 142 to eliminate air bubbles formed on the surface of the transformer 17 after the varnish is applied.
[0045] Please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9The painting apparatus 144 includes a third mounting frame 1441 movable along the length of the fixed frame 141, a plurality of painting components 1442 mounted on the third mounting frame 1441, and a paint container 1443 mounted on the third mounting frame 1441 and rotatable on the third mounting frame 1441. The paint container 1443 is located below the painting components 1442. When the painting components 1442 are not painted, the paint container 1443 is located below the painting components 1442. When the painting components 1442 are painted, the paint container 1443 is positioned below them. 3. Rotate away from the underside of the paint coating component 1442. The third mounting bracket 1441 is used to install the paint coating component 1442 and the paint box 1443. When the paint coating component 1442 is not applying paint to the transformer 17, the paint box 1443 is located below the paint coating component 1442 and is used to collect the paint dripping from the paint coating component 1442 to prevent the paint dripping from the paint coating component 1442 from spilling onto the equipment or the ground. Before the paint coating component 1442 applies paint, the paint box 1443 rotates away from the paint coating component 1442 to facilitate the paint coating component 1442 to apply paint to the transformer 17.
[0046] In this embodiment, no terminals are provided at the bottom of the transformer 17, and the varnish pool 142 contains some varnish. The depth of the varnish is half of that of the transformer 17. Therefore, only the upper part of the transformer 17 needs to be coated with varnish.
[0047] The baking and impregnation equipment also includes a table 15 located between the coating mechanism 14 and the gripping mechanism 13 for placing a cover at the top terminal of the sealing transformer 17. The gripping mechanism 13 grips the cover and places it on the transformer 17 to seal the terminals on the transformer 17. The table 15 is used to place the cover, and the cover is used to seal the terminals at the top of the transformer 17. After the second gripping component places the transformer 17 into the impregnation tank 142, the robotic arm 132 drives the first gripping component to grip the cover on the table 15 and place the cover on the transformer 17, so that the cover covers the terminals on the transformer 17. When the coating component 1442 coats the coil of the transformer 17 with coating, it can effectively prevent the coating from flowing into the terminals of the transformer 17.
[0048] Please refer to Figure 10 The drying rack 122 is set at an angle, and multiple racks 1221 for placing transformers 17 are set on the drying rack 122. The angled racks 1221 are used to place the transformers 17 after they have been coated with paint, which allows the excess paint on the coated transformers 17 to drip off quickly, preventing excess paint from adhering to the transformers 17. At the same time, it also speeds up the drying speed of the coated transformers 17.
[0049] The drying rack 122 is provided with multiple through holes 1222 for paint dripping, all of which are located below the placement rack 1221. Below the drying rack 122, there is also a detachable container 1223 for holding the paint. The paint drips into the container 1223 through the through holes 1222. The through holes 1222 are used for the paint dripping from the transformer 17 to fall into the container 1223. The container 1223 is detachably connected to the drying rack 122 for easy removal of the container 1223 to recover the paint inside.
[0050] Working principle: When coating the transformer 17, firstly, a person or a robot places the transformer 17 on the platform 1123. The second moving component 1122 moves from the second mounting bracket 1121 towards the platform 1123, grabbing the transformer 17 from the platform 1123 and placing it on the first baking device 111. The first baking device 111 bakes the transformer 17 and moves it towards the first unloading device 113. When the transformer 17 is below the first moving component 1132, the first moving component 1132 grabs the transformer 17 below and moves it above the lifting component 1133. The first moving component 1132 then places the transformer 17... Placed on the platform, the first bidirectional cylinder drives the connecting plates 1139 at both ends to move toward the transformer 17. The connecting plates 1139 drive the pressure plate 1130 to move, so that the pressure plate 1130 is above the transformer 17. The first cylinder 1135 is activated, and the first cylinder 1135 drives the first fixing plate 1136 to move toward the top plate 11331. The first fixing plate 1136 drives the fixing column 1137 to move. The fixing column 1137 pushes out the fixture 171 inside the transformer 17. Due to the action of the pressure plate 1130, and because the pressure plate 1130 is L-shaped, when the fixing column 1137 pushes out the fixture 171, the pressure plate 1130 limits the transformer 17 to prevent the transformer 17 from separating from the platform.
[0051] Furthermore, the robotic arm 132 drives the extension column 1341 to move towards and above the lifting assembly 1133. The first motor drives the extension column 1341 to rotate, which in turn drives the mounting plate 1342 to rotate, positioning the first gripping assembly above the lifting assembly 1133. The second cylinder 1340 drives the first strip plate 1347 to move towards the lifting assembly 1133. When the two first grippers 1349 on the rodless cylinder 1348 are located on both sides of the fixture 171, the rodless cylinder 1348 drives the first grippers 1349 to clamp the fixture 171. After the fixture 171 is clamped, the second bidirectional cylinder 1344 drives the connecting plate 1139 to move away from the fixture 171, causing the pressure plate 1130 to move away from the fixture 171 and release the transformer. When the device 17 is limited, the second cylinder 1340 moves the first strip plate 1347 away from the lifting assembly 1133, thereby separating the fixture 171 from the transformer 17. The first motor drives the extension column 1341 to rotate again, causing the second gripping assembly to rotate above the lifting assembly 1133. The third cylinder 1346 drives the second strip plate 1343 to move towards the transformer 17, so that the second clamps at both ends of the second bidirectional cylinder 1344 are located on both sides of the transformer 17. The second bidirectional cylinder 1344 drives the second gripper 1345 to grip the transformer 17. After the second gripper 1345 grips the transformer 17, the third cylinder 1346 drives the second strip plate 1343 away from the lifting assembly 1133, causing the gripping mechanism 13 to move the fixture 171 and the transformer 17 away from the lifting assembly 1133.
[0052] Furthermore, the robotic arm 132 drives the extension column 1341 to move towards the conveying device 16, and the first motor drives the first gripping assembly to rotate above the conveying device 16. The first gripping assembly places the fixture 171 on the conveying device 16, so that the conveying device 16 conveys the fixture 171 to the set position. The robotic arm 132 again drives the extension column 1341 to move towards the impregnation tank 142 and moves the mounting plate 1342 above the impregnation tank 142. The first motor drives the extension column 1341 to rotate so that the second gripping assembly is positioned above the impregnation tank 142. The second gripper places the gripped transformer 17 into the impregnation tank 142. The above steps are repeated. When the set number of transformers 17 in the impregnation tank 142 has been placed, the robotic arm 132 drives the extension column 1341 to move above the table 15, so that the first gripping assembly grips the table 15. The cover of component 5 is placed above transformer 17 to cover the terminals on transformer 17, preventing paint from entering the terminals during varnishing. After the gripping mechanism 13 covers all the terminals of transformer 17, the third mounting bracket 1441 moves on the fixed bracket 141. Before the third mounting bracket 1441 moves, the varnish box 1443 rotates away from below the varnishing component 1442 to prevent the varnishing component 1442 from falling into the varnish box 1443 during varnishing. After the varnish box 1443 moves away from the varnishing component 1442, the third mounting bracket 1441 moves. When the varnishing component 1442 passes the coil of transformer 17, the varnishing component 1442 dispenses paint to varnish the coil of transformer 17. After the coil of transformer 17 in the varnishing tank 142 has been varnished, the third mounting bracket 1441 returns to its initial position, and the varnish box rotates back to below the varnishing component 1442.
[0053] Furthermore, the fourth cylinder 145 drives the sealing cover 143 to close the impregnation tank 142. After the impregnation tank 142 is sealed, the air extraction assembly extracts the air from the impregnation tank 142 to eliminate air bubbles in the varnish applied to the transformer 17. When the air extraction assembly reaches the set value, it stops extracting air. At the same time, the fourth cylinder 145 drives the sealing cover 143 to open the impregnation tank 142. Simultaneously, the robotic arm 132 drives the extension column 1341 to move into the impregnation tank 142, facilitating the first gripping assembly to descend and grip the cover on the transformer 17. Meanwhile, when the cover is gripped by the first gripping assembly... When the item is gripped, the first motor drives the extension column 1341 to rotate so that the second gripping component can descend and grip the coated transformer 17. After the cover and the coated transformer 17 are gripped, the robotic arm 132 drives the extension column 1341 to move above the table 15 so that the first gripping component can place the cover on the table 15. The robotic arm 132 then drives the extension column 1341 to the drying rack 122 so that the second gripping component can place the coated transformer 17 on the placement rack 1221. Through the above operations, the placement rack 1221 is filled with transformers 17.
[0054] Furthermore, since there are two coating mechanisms 14, they can alternately coat the transformer 17 with paint. After the gripping mechanism 13 places the coated transformer 17 from the first coating mechanism 14 onto the placement rack 1221, the gripping mechanism 13 can then lift the transformer 17 from the lifting assembly 1133 and place it into the second coating mechanism 14. During this process, the transformer 17 placed on the placement rack 1221 has sufficient time to drip excess paint onto the drying platform 122. When the gripping mechanism 13 has filled the second coating mechanism 14 with transformers 17, the second coating mechanism 14... 4. During the process of coating and evacuating the transformer 17, the gripping mechanism 13 grips the dried transformer 17 on the drying platform 122 and places it in the second baking device 121, so that the second baking device 121 further dries the coating on the transformer 17. After the gripping mechanism 13 has finished gripping the transformer 17 on the drying platform 122, it grips the transformer 17 again from the lifting component 1133 and places it in the first coating mechanism 14 to form a cycle. Through the above operations, the drying of the transformer 17, removal of the jig 171, coating, drying, and re-drying can be formed into a complete process, so as to reduce manual operation, effectively speed up the processing efficiency, and increase the production capacity.
[0055] The transformer baking and impregnation equipment of this preferred embodiment involves placing the transformer in a first baking mechanism to dry it, then placing the dried transformer in a coating mechanism for coating, a gripping mechanism to place the coated transformer on a drying table, and finally placing the transformer on the drying table into a second baking device. The transformer drying, impregnation, and drying after impregnation form a complete process, thereby accelerating processing efficiency and increasing production capacity.
[0056] In summary, although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, the above preferred embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
