[0062] The solid combustion chamber coating device for an engine provided by this invention can be divided into the following four stages in its working principle:
[0063] 1. Workpiece clamping and positioning stage:
[0064] (1) Workpiece placement: The operator places the workpiece 3 (solid combustion chamber of the engine) between the V-shaped clamps 28 of the rotary clamping unit 1. The two ends of the workpiece 3 are initially positioned by the end supports 8.
[0065] (2) Pneumatic clamping: The gripper telescopic cylinder 20 drives the parallel gripper mounting plate 13 to move, causing the gripper to radially clamp the workpiece. The limiting pad 27 on the V-shaped clamping block 28 and the limiting soft block 25 on the limiting hard block 26 form a composite limiting structure to ensure that the clamping force is evenly distributed.
[0066] (3) Rotation preparation: The pneumatic slip ring 18 completes the pneumatic / electrical connection verification, and the rotary drive motor 15 enters the standby state through the rotary drive motor reducer 14.
[0067] 2. Support, compression, and centering stage:
[0068] (1) Axial clamping: The clamping cylinder 30 pushes the small-sized nylon support roller assembly to move down. Nylon roller I 36 and nylon roller II 39 flexibly contact the surface of the workpiece 3 under the action of the clamping sliding compression spring 33. The linear bearing mounting plate 31 ensures the linear motion accuracy of the upper clamping mechanism.
[0069] (2) Dynamic self-alignment: Adjust the support spacing drive motor 38 to adjust the roller spacing by adjusting the support spacing lead screw slide 54, and the horizontal drive motor 44 drives the entire support pressing unit to move along the support pressing unit guide rail slider assembly 43.
[0070] 3. Coating execution stage:
[0071] (1) Positioning of the glue applicator head: The glue applicator lifting drive motor 65 drives the glue applicator lifting slide plate 70 through the glue applicator lifting drive electric cylinder 66; the glue applicator rotation drive motor 71 drives the rod support guide rail seat 75 to rotate to a suitable angle.
[0072] (2) Flexible contact establishment: The flexible contact spring 62 of the glue applicator is compressed, and the pressure is transmitted through the flexible contact spring guide shaft 63 of the glue applicator. The flexible contact guide plate 64 of the glue applicator and the limiting plate 68 form a pressure buffer mechanism, and the glue applicator head 93 is in contact with the inner wall of the workpiece.
[0073] (3) Composite motion coating: The rotary clamping unit rotates the workpiece at a fixed speed, and the glue-applying rod feed drive motor 78 pushes the glue-applying head 93 to move axially through the glue-applying rod feed linear module 80. The two axes work together to form a spiral coating trajectory.
[0074] 4. Adhesive supply control stage:
[0075] (1) Constant temperature glue supply: Ceramic electric heating coil 98 maintains the temperature of glue tank 96 at the set value;
[0076] (2) Pressure control: The electric cylinder drive motor 104 pushes the piston 99 through the piston telescopic electric cylinder 103, the floating joint 101 compensates for installation errors, and the glue supply proximity switch assembly 107 monitors the piston stroke and controls the amount of glue supplied at one time.
[0077] (3) Adhesive delivery: The adhesive is delivered to the applicator head 93 via the adhesive supply pipe 95.
