[0002] Ceramic tile glue is a modern decoration material used for sticking ceramic tiles, face tiles and floor tiles and other decorative materials, and is an indispensable material in the process of house decoration, especially for the walls and floors of bathrooms and other locations. Ceramic tile glue is often used to stick ceramic tiles. When using ceramic tile glue, it is applied between the ceramic tile and the wall, and then the ceramic tile is stuck and solidified to achieve successful adhesion. Therefore, the adhesion effect of ceramic tile glue is particularly important, because if the adhesion effect of ceramic tile glue is not good, it will cause the ceramic tile to be unstable, which will bring inconvenience to the user and also pose a certain safety hazard.
[0003] After production, the ceramic tile glue needs to be tested for bonding strength to evaluate the quality of the glue. Most of the existing detection devices collect data manually and calculate, or test the strength manually. The detection work is not only tedious, inefficient and unreliable, but also the detection results are not intuitive and accurate. When facing customers for performance display, only the final data can be presented, which is not persuasive and has poor promotion effect.

[0025] The following is combined Figures 1 to 8 A device for testing the performance of tile adhesive according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a display stand 1, a water immersion device 2, an environmental simulation device 3, an anti-slip strength testing device 4, a pull-out strength testing device 5, a handling robot 6, a handling guide rail 7, a control center, and a display device. The water immersion device 2, environmental simulation device 3, anti-slip strength testing device 4, tensile strength testing device 5, handling robot 6, handling guide rail 7, and control center are all installed on the display stand 1; The transport guide rail 7 is sequentially connected to the water soaking device 2, the environmental simulation device 3, the anti-slip strength testing device 4, and the tensile strength testing device 5. The transport robot 6 is set on the transport rail and is used to transport the test tile between the water soaking device 2, the environmental simulation device 3, the anti-slip strength testing device 4, and the tensile strength testing device 5. The water immersion device 2, environmental simulation device 3, anti-slip strength testing device 4, and tensile strength testing device 5 are respectively connected to the control center for data signals. The water immersion device 2, environmental simulation device 3, anti-slip strength testing device 4, and tensile strength testing device 5 respectively send signals to the control center. The control center collects and analyzes the data and obtains the analysis results, which are then sent to the display device for displaying the analysis results.
[0026] After production, tile adhesive needs to undergo bonding strength testing to assess its quality. Most existing testing devices rely on manual data collection and calculation, or manual strength testing. This testing process is not only cumbersome and inefficient but also unsafe and unreliable. Furthermore, the test results are not intuitive or accurate enough. When demonstrating performance to customers, the final data can only be presented, which lacks persuasiveness and results in poor promotional effectiveness.
[0027] In this embodiment, wheels can be installed at the bottom of the display stand 1 to facilitate its movement, allowing it to be moved anytime and anywhere. This application uses a soaking device 2 to immerse tiles coated with tile adhesive, allowing users to more intuitively observe the changes in the tile adhesive during the soaking process. Data such as soaking time, temperature, or pH value are directly sent to the control center and displayed on a display device, enabling users to intuitively understand the current soaking status of the tile adhesive. After sufficient soaking time, a transport robot 6 transports the tiles to an environmental simulation device 3 for freeze-thaw cycles, or to an anti-slip strength testing device 4 and a pull-out strength testing device 5 for strength testing.
[0028] This application uses an environmental simulation device 3 to conduct repeated freeze-thaw cycles of water-saturated tiles coated with tile adhesive, as well as high-temperature durability tests. After completing the environmental simulation, the tiles are transported by a handling robot 6 to the anti-slip strength testing device 4 and the pull-out strength testing device 5 for strength testing. The environmental simulation device 3 can also transmit the temperature data it controls to the control center and display it through a display device, which allows users to directly observe the temperature changes inside the environmental simulation chamber 31.
[0029] The anti-slip strength testing device 4 and the pull-out strength testing device 5 respectively conduct strength tests on tiles that have been laid and cured for a sufficient period of time, and send the obtained strength data to the control center. The control center calculates and analyzes the data to obtain accurate anti-slip strength or pull-out strength data, and generates data information such as line graphs or bar graphs based on the data from the pre-soaking device 2 and the environmental simulation device 3, and sends it to the display device for display, so that users can more intuitively obtain the testing process and results of the tile adhesive; the control center can be a computer or other data processing device; the display device can be a monitor or other graphics display device; Using this platform for tile adhesive performance testing not only saves manpower, but also allows users to intuitively observe processes such as tile soaking, environmental simulation, and strength testing. Data is automatically acquired and displayed, making it highly efficient, safe, and reliable, and the test results are more accurate. When demonstrating tile adhesive performance to customers, the diverse processes such as tile soaking, environmental simulation, and strength testing provide a direct and realistic performance demonstration, which helps improve the promotion effect of tile adhesive.
[0030] Furthermore, the water immersion device 2 includes a water tank 21, an underwater fixing base 22, a sensing device 23, and a timing device 24. The underwater fixing base 22 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the water tank 21. The underwater fixing base 22 is arranged with a plurality of fixing slots 221, which are used to place the test tiles. The inner wall of the water tank 21 is provided with a plurality of the aforementioned sensing devices 23, each of which corresponds to a position on the fixed slot 221. The sensing devices 23 are communicatively connected to the timing device 24. The sensing devices 23 are used to sense the placement and removal of the tiles in the fixed slot 221 and send a signal to the timing device 24 to start or stop timing. The timing device 24 is communicatively connected to the control center and is used to send timing data to the control center.
[0031] Specifically, in this embodiment, the water tank 21 is provided with a transparent window, allowing the user to observe directly; Water is added to tank 21 to soak the tiles. The tile coated with tile adhesive is placed in the fixing slot 221 of the underwater fixing seat 22 by the transport robot 6. The sensor 23 detects the placement of the tile and sends a signal to the timing device 24 to start timing. When the transport robot 6 removes the tile from the fixing slot 221, the sensor 23 detects the removal of the tile and sends a signal to the timing device 24, which then stops timing and sends the soaking time to the control center. The soaking time is displayed on the display device, allowing users to intuitively understand the current soaking status of the tile adhesive. Each fixing slot 221 has a corresponding sensor 23, which can time each tile separately to ensure the accuracy of the soaking time.
[0032] Furthermore, the water tank 21 is also equipped with a pH value detection device 25, which is communicatively connected to the control center. The pH value detection device 25 is used to detect the pH value of the soaking water and send it to the control center.
[0033] Specifically, in this embodiment, a pH value detection device 25 is also installed in the water tank 21, which can detect the pH value of the water and send it to the control center. The pH value is displayed through a display device, allowing users to fully and intuitively understand a more comprehensive situation of the water.
[0034] Furthermore, the environmental simulation device 3 includes a simulation box 31, an end cap 32, a heating mechanism 33, a freezing mechanism 34, a tile fixing seat 35, a water collection tank 36, and a temperature sensor 37; The simulation box 31 is provided with an end cap 32 at the top opening 310, and the end cap 32 is hinged to the simulation box 31. The inner wall of the simulation box 31 is provided with a plurality of heating mechanisms 33 and a plurality of freezing mechanisms 34 arranged in a staggered manner. The tile fixing base 35 is fixedly disposed on the bottom surface of the simulation box 31 and is used to fix the test tile; The water collection tank 36 is located at the bottom of the simulation tank 31, and the bottom of the simulation tank 31 is provided with a drain outlet 311 that communicates with the water collection tank 36. The temperature sensor 37 is located inside the simulation chamber 31 and is used to detect the internal temperature of the simulation chamber 31 and send temperature data to the control center.
[0035] Specifically, in this embodiment, before the handling robot 6 moves the tile to the simulation box 31 and opens the end cover 32, the handling robot 6 places the tile in the tile fixing seat 35. The tile fixing seat 35 is provided with a limiting groove, which allows the tile to stand upright and not fall over. Then, the end cover 32 is closed, and the freezing mechanism 34 is turned on to cool the environment inside the simulation box 31 at about -15°C for about 2 hours. Then, the freezing mechanism 34 is turned off, and the heating mechanism 33 is turned on to control the environment inside the simulation box 31 at 15-20°C for about 2 hours. The above two freeze-thaw cycles constitute a cycle, and multiple cycles are performed as needed to simulate changes in ambient temperature and observe the impact on the tile adhesive. During this period, the temperature sensor 37 can monitor the temperature inside the simulation box 31 and send the temperature data to the control center. The control center displays the temperature data through a display device, allowing users to understand the temperature of the simulation box 31. The control center can also record the temperature changes of the simulation box 31, form a line graph, and display it through the display device, which helps users to more intuitively understand the environmental simulation process of the tile adhesive. Specifically, the heating mechanism 33 and the freezing mechanism 34 are arranged alternately to effectively utilize space. The heating mechanism 33 is arranged around the inner wall of the simulation chamber 31, which can improve the heating efficiency of the tiles. The freezing mechanism 34 is arranged around the inner wall of the simulation chamber 31, which can improve the cooling efficiency of the tiles. Specifically, the heating mechanism 33 can be an electric heating tube, which heats the gas in the simulation chamber 31 and transfers the heat to the tiles and tile adhesive. During the environmental simulation process, freezing and melting will generate moisture. Under the action of gravity, the moisture will flow to the bottom of the simulation chamber 31 and be discharged into the water collection tank 36 through the drain outlet 311. The drain outlet 311 is equipped with a baffle, which is driven by a drive component such as an electric cylinder. When drainage is needed, the baffle is opened, and when drainage is not needed, the electric cylinder drives the baffle to block the drain outlet 311. The bottom of the water collection tank 36 is also equipped with a water outlet for discharging the collected water.
[0036] Furthermore, the refrigeration mechanism 34 includes a plurality of cooling pipes 341, an evaporator 342, a compressor 343, a condenser 344, and an expansion valve 345. The evaporator 342 is disposed inside the simulation chamber 31. The plurality of cooling pipes 341 are distributed and arranged on the inner wall of the simulation chamber 31. The input ends of the cooling pipes 341 are respectively connected to the output ends of the evaporator 342, and the output ends of the cooling pipes 341 are respectively connected to the input ends of the compressor 343. The compressor 343, the condenser 344, and the expansion valve 345 are connected in sequence. The output end of the expansion valve 345 is connected to the input end of the evaporator 342. The compressor 343, the condenser 344, and the expansion valve 345 are disposed on the outer wall of the simulation chamber 31.
[0037] Specifically, in this embodiment, the compressor 343 compresses the low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant gas into a high-temperature, high-pressure gas. The high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant gas enters the condenser 344, where it transfers heat to the external environment through heat dissipation, cools itself, and condenses into a high-pressure liquid. The high-pressure liquid refrigerant is rapidly depressurized through the expansion valve 345, becoming a low-pressure, low-temperature liquid or gas-liquid mixture. The low-pressure, low-temperature refrigerant enters the evaporator 342, where it absorbs heat from the air inside the simulation chamber 31 and the ceramic tiles, evaporating into a low-pressure, low-temperature gas. After passing through several cooling pipes 341, the gas is drawn back into the compressor 343 for circulation.
[0038] Furthermore, the outer walls on both sides of the simulation box 31 are respectively provided with opening cylinders 312. One end of the opening cylinder 312 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 313 of the simulation box 31. The two ends of the end cover 32 are respectively provided with hinge seats 321. The output ends of the two opening cylinders 312 are respectively rotatably connected to the two hinge seats 321. The bottom of the end cap 32 is provided with a sealing boss 322, the top of the simulation box 31 is provided with an opening 310, the shape of the sealing boss 322 matches the shape of the opening 310, and a sealing strip 323 is provided around the sealing boss 322.
[0039] Specifically, in this embodiment, the opening and closing of the end cover 32 is controlled by the opening cylinder 312. A sensor can be set to detect when the handling robot 6 moves the ceramic to the simulation box 31. The opening cylinder 312 is then activated, and the piston rod of the opening cylinder 312 pushes out, pushing one end of the end cover 32 upward, thereby causing the end cover 32 to rotate. When it is necessary to close the end cover 32, the opening cylinder 312 is activated, driving the piston rod to retract, thereby causing the end cover 32 to rotate and seal the opening 310 of the simulation box 31. During this process, the sealing protrusion 322 of the end cover 32 will be inserted into the opening 310 to seal it. The sealing protrusion 322 of the end cover 32 has the same shape as the opening 310, which improves the sealing performance. The sealing strips 323 around the perimeter further improve the sealing performance, effectively preventing the exchange of heat between the inside and outside of the simulation box 31.
[0040] Furthermore, the anti-slip strength testing device 4 includes a tile mounting base 41, a testing electric cylinder 42, a tensile strength meter 43, a connecting rod 44, a tile fixing device 45, a testing guide rail 46, several testing sliders 47, and several displacement detectors 48; The detection electric cylinder 42 is fixed to the tile mounting base 41. A tensile strength meter 43 is provided at the output end of the detection electric cylinder 42. The other end of the tensile strength meter 43 is connected to the tile fixing device 45 through the connecting rod 44. The tile fixing device 45 is used to fix and connect with the tile attached to the tile mounting base 41; The detection guide rail 46 is disposed on one side of the detection electric cylinder 42 and is fixed to the tile mounting base 41. A plurality of detection sliders 47 are slidably disposed on the detection guide rail 46. Each detection slider 47 is also provided with a locking member to lock with the detection guide rail 46. The displacement detectors 48 are respectively fixedly disposed on the detection sliders 47.
[0041] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the handling robot 6 transports the tile to the anti-slip strength testing device 4, the tiler lays the tile on the tile mounting base 41. The strength test is performed after the tile adhesive has cured and the tile is stably fixed to the tile mounting base 41. This process typically takes about 30 days. When a strength test is required, the operator activates the testing cylinder 42, moving the tile fixing device 45 to the center of the tile. The tile fixing device 45 is then installed and fixed to the surface of the tile to prevent slippage. The testing slider 47 is then moved along the testing guide rail 46 to the horizontal planes of the upper and lower ends of the tile. The two moving testing sliders 47 monitor the tile's slippage. Afterward, the operator can leave the workbench and activate the output shaft of the testing cylinder 42 to retract, thereby testing the tile's anti-slip strength. The tile is subjected to tensile testing. A tensile strength meter 43 records the change in the pulling force exerted on the tile by the electric cylinder 42 and sends the tensile data to the control center. A displacement monitor detects the vertical displacement of the tile and sends the monitored displacement data to the control center. The control center processes the data and sends it to a display device for presentation. The control center can generate graphs showing the changes in tensile strength and displacement, allowing visitors to intuitively understand the relationship between tensile strength and displacement. It also allows direct observation of the tile and tile adhesive's condition during the testing process, providing a more intuitive and realistic assessment of the adhesive's anti-slip strength compared to paper data. This increases trust in the adhesive's effectiveness and promotes its product promotion. It should be noted that using an electric cylinder allows for more precise control of the tensile force, improving testing accuracy.
[0042] Furthermore, the tile fixing device 45 includes a connecting seat 451, an adsorption seat 452, a plurality of adsorption connecting rods 453, and a plurality of suction cups 454. The connecting seat 451 is connected to the connecting rods 44. The adsorption seat 452 is fixedly disposed at the bottom of the connecting seat 451. At least four adsorption rods are provided. One end of each adsorption rod is connected to the adsorption seat 452, and the other end of each adsorption rod is connected to a suction cup 454. The bottom of the adsorption seat 452 is provided with the suction cups 454. The suction cups 454 are connected to an external vacuuming device. The end of the connecting rod 44 passes through the connecting seat 451 and is threaded with a nut, and the connecting rod 44 is locked to the connecting seat 451 by the nut.
[0043] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the nut is not tightened, the adsorption connecting rod 453 is rotatably connected to the connecting seat 451. The position of the suction cup 454 can be adjusted according to the size of the tile. After adjustment, the nut is tightened to lock the adsorption connecting rod 453 and the connecting seat 451, so that the adsorption connecting rod 453 cannot rotate. When fixing the tile, the bottom of the adsorption seat 452 and the suction cups 454 on the four adsorption connecting rods 453 are adsorbed onto the surface of the tile. Then, the external vacuum equipment is activated to vacuum the suction cups 454, so that the suction cups 454 are firmly adsorbed onto the surface of the tile, improving the stability of the connection between the tile fixing device 45 and the tile.
[0044] Furthermore, the tensile strength testing device 5 includes a second mounting base 51, a lifting seat 52, a guide seat 53, a lifting drive mechanism 54, a tensile electric cylinder 55, a tensile force meter 56, and a tensile fixing mechanism 57. The second mounting base 51 is used to lay the test tiles; The lifting seat 52 is slidably disposed on the guide seat 53 in the vertical direction. The lifting seat 52 is connected to the output end of the lifting drive mechanism 54. The lifting drive mechanism 54 is used to drive the lifting seat 52 to move up and down. The pulling electric cylinder 55 is fixedly mounted on the lifting base 52, and the pulling force meter 56 is mounted on the output end of the pulling electric cylinder 55; The pulling and fixing mechanism 57 includes a pulling base 571 and a plurality of pulling suction cups 572. The other end of the pulling force meter 56 is fixedly connected to the pulling base 571. The pulling suction cups 572 are disposed on the other side of the pulling base 571 and are connected to an external vacuuming device.
[0045] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the handling robot 6 transports the tile to the pull-out strength testing device 5, the tiler lays the tile on the second mounting base 51. The strength test is performed after the tile adhesive has cured and the tile is stably fixed on the tile mounting base 41. This process typically takes about 30 days. When a pull-out strength test is required, the operator activates the lifting drive mechanism 54, which moves the lifting seat 52 to the center level of the tile. Then, the pull-out electric cylinder 55 is activated, causing the piston rod to extend and approach the tile. The pull-out fixing mechanism 57 is then installed and fixed to the tile surface to prevent slippage. The pull-out electric cylinder 55 is then activated again, causing the piston rod to retract and pull the tile. The pull-out strength tester 5... 6. The tensile data is monitored and sent to the control center. The control center displays the tensile data through a display device. The pull-out electric cylinder 55 stops after the tensile force reaches the preset value. After the preset tensile force is reached, the user can intuitively observe the adhesion between the tile and the second mounting base 51. The user can intuitively observe whether the tile body is broken or whether the bonding interface is peeled. The pull-out strength testing device 5 can directly display the testing process. In the exhibition hall, people can fully and intuitively understand the state of the tile adhesive when the pull-out strength standard is reached. The observation is more intuitive and real, rather than presenting the pull-out strength of the tile adhesive through paper data. This increases people's trust in the effect of the tile adhesive and is conducive to the promotion of tile adhesive products.
[0046] It should be noted that the electric cylinder used in this embodiment can more precisely control the strength of the pulling force, which is beneficial to improving the accuracy of the detection.
[0047] Furthermore, the guide seat 53 includes at least four guide columns 531 and a top plate 532. The bottom end of the guide column 531 is fixedly connected to the display stand 1, and the top end of the guide column 531 is connected to the top plate 532. The lifting seat 52 is provided with at least four guide holes respectively, and the guide holes are sleeved on the outside of the guide column 531. The lifting drive mechanism 54 includes a drive base 541, a drive motor 542, a drive bevel gear 543, a driven bevel gear 544, a lead screw 545, and a lead screw nut 546. The driving bevel gear 543 and the driven bevel gear 544 are disposed within the driving base 541; the driving bevel gear 543 is disposed at the output end of the driving motor 542, and the driving bevel gear 543 and the driven bevel gear 544 are meshed at 90 degrees; one end of the lead screw 545 is coaxially connected to the driven bevel gear 544, and the other end of the lead screw 545 is rotatably connected to the top plate 532; the lead screw nut 546 is fixedly connected to the lifting seat 52, and the lead screw nut 546 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 545.
[0048] Specifically, in this embodiment, at least four guide columns 531 guide the lifting seat 52, which helps to improve the stability of the lifting seat 52 during lifting movement. The top plate 532 connects the four guide columns 531 to ensure the stability and firmness of the guide columns 531. The driving bevel gear 543 is smaller than the driven bevel gear 544, which can achieve the functions of speed reduction and torque increase. This allows the lead screw 545 to push the lifting seat 52, which is connected to the lead screw nut 546, with greater force, thereby improving the stability of the lifting seat 52's movement and preventing swaying. The upper and lower ends of the lead screw 545 are connected to the top plate 532 and the drive base 541 respectively through bearings. The driving bevel gear 543 and the driven bevel gear 544 are also connected to the drive base 541 through bearings. The drive motor 542 drives... The shaft is inserted into the drive base 541, which drives the drive bevel gear 543 to rotate. The drive bevel gear 543 drives the driven bevel gear 544 to rotate. The driven bevel gear 544 is connected to the lead screw 545 through a coupling, so the driven bevel gear 544 drives the lead screw 545 to rotate. The lead screw nut 546 moves along the axis of the lead screw 545, thereby driving the movement of the lifting seat 52. The lifting seat 52 drives the lifting movement of the pulling electric cylinder 55, which ensures that the pulling force is always perpendicular to the tile, thus ensuring the accuracy of the pulling test.
