Abstract
Description

[0002] Almost everyone needs to use a mobile phone nowadays, and the demand for mobile phones is huge, which puts forward high requirements for the production efficiency of mobile phones.
[0003] In the production of mobile phone back covers, a layer of release film needs to be added to both the top and bottom of the main material (which can be polypropylene (PP)). This is because the PP material tends to stick to the mold during molding, necessitating the addition of release films for demolding. The release films are larger than the PP material and must be centered and aligned. Conventionally, these layers are manually placed one by one into a fixture and then stapled together. This process is not only slow and significantly impacts labor productivity, but also exhausts employees, and the excessive manual labor and stiff staples can damage the mold. Furthermore, sometimes incomplete parts are found in the finished products, requiring an additional manual quality inspection process, further increasing production time and costs.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a multilayer film assembly mechanism and method that can automatically assemble release films and inspect the finished products. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0021] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or parts / elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.
[0022] The following describes the molding method of the multilayer diaphragm assembly mechanism according to an embodiment of this application, with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0023] Figure 1 This is a top view of a multilayer diaphragm assembly mechanism provided in one embodiment of this application; Figure 2 This is a perspective view of a multilayer diaphragm assembly mechanism provided in one embodiment of this application. Figure 1-2 As shown: The multilayer membrane assembly mechanism includes a main material handling module 1, a first membrane transport module 2 located to the right of the main material handling module 1, a main material transport module 3 located to the right of the first membrane transport module 2, a second membrane transport module 4 located to the right of the main material transport module 3, an assembly fixture 5 located to the right of the second membrane transport module 4, an assembly device 6 located to the front or rear of the assembly fixture 5, a fixture moving track 7 located below the first membrane transport module 2, the main material transport module 3, the second membrane transport module 4 and the assembly fixture 5, a detection fixture 15 located to the right of the assembly fixture 5, a detection device 16 located to the rear or front of the detection fixture 15, and a production line module 17 located to the right of the detection fixture 15; wherein, the assembly fixture 5 and the detection fixture 15 are both slidably connected to the fixture moving track 7.
[0024] According to the present application, a multilayer diaphragm assembly mechanism further includes a main material handling module 1 disposed on the left side of the first diaphragm handling module 2.
[0025] Specifically, this device uses assembly device 6 to assemble and connect the release film and the PP main material together. The main material handling module 1, the first film handling module 2, the main material handling module 3, the second film handling module 4, and the assembly fixture 5 are all controlled by a programmable logic controller (PLC) to control all machine operations. Inside the device, a servo motor drives the lead screw module to move precisely. The detection device 16 can be a visual inspection device such as an image acquisition device, or a weighing detection device; in this embodiment, a weighing detection device is used, which is fast and accurate, and the equipment price is relatively low.
[0026] The specific operating steps are as follows: First, place the PP main material in the main material hopper, and place the release film into the hoppers of the first film handling module 2 and the second film handling module 4. After pressing the start button, the subsequent operation is automatically controlled by the PLC. The robotic arm of the first film handling module 2 moves to the hopper and transports the material to the upper clamp. The upper clamp is driven by a cylinder to fix the material in a fixed position, and then the feeding shaft picks it up and transports it to the stacking clamp. The main material picking module 1 takes out the PP main material from the outer main material hopper and transports it to the clamp by the main material handling module 3. The second film handling module 4 operates in the same way as the first film handling module 2. Then, the clamp in the first film handling module 2 clamps the material and moves to the right along the clamp moving track 7 (at this time, in order to avoid collision, the main material handling module 3, the second film handling module 4 and the assembly clamp 5 also need to move to the right), and moves to the main material handling module 3. At the clamp, the PP main material is stacked on top of it, and then the clamp moves to the left. After the clamp of the main material transport module 3 clamps the PP main material and the first release film, the clamp moves to the right, placing the PP main material and the first release film on the second release film. At this time, the product structure is "second release film - PP main material - first release film", thus successfully covering both sides of the PP main material with release film. After the clamp returns to its original position, the clamp of the second film transport module 4 clamps the "second release film - PP main material - first release film", and then the clamp moves to the right again, placing the "second release film - PP main material - first release film" on the assembly clamp 5 and resetting the clamp. Then the assembly clamp 5 clamps the "second release film - PP main material - first release film". Finally, the assembly device 6 assembles and connects the "second release film - PP main material - first release film" together to form the product.
[0027] Then, assembly fixture 5 clamps the product to the inspection fixture 15, and the inspection device 16 performs quality inspection on the product. This inspection can be done quickly by weighing, and defective products are eliminated. After passing inspection, the product is clamped by inspection fixture 15 to the production line module 15, and then transported by the production line module 15 to the external shipping location. Since the main material and membrane sheets can be stored in stacked hoppers, multiple finished products can be shipped together at once, thereby improving labor productivity.
[0028] It should be noted that the operation steps described above are for the first run. In subsequent runs, the main material picking module 1 can perform the previous steps to avoid the equipment running idle. The fixture moves while holding the material, ensuring high production efficiency.
[0029] It should also be noted that since the main material picking module 1 is equipped with a main material hopper, and the main material hopper is relatively large, in order to reduce the longitudinal dimension of the mechanism and prevent the mechanism from being too deep, making it difficult to maintain and place, the main material picking module 1 can be set on the far left, and a gripping device can be set to grip the main material to the right side, and then the main material transport module 3 can transport it to the fixture.
[0030] According to the present application, a multi-layer film assembly mechanism only requires manual feeding into the hopper, and can automatically feed the material onto the production line through the simultaneous operation of multiple modular robotic arms. It adopts an assembly device for automatic assembly, thereby realizing fully automated production. Moreover, after the product is manufactured, it can be directly tested, and it can be shipped out after passing the test, ensuring product quality and improving production efficiency.
[0031] According to one embodiment of this application, the assembly device 6 is a sewing machine or an adhesive device.
[0032] Specifically, this application Figure 1 , 2 In the embodiments, a sewing machine is used. Since the assembly device 6 is used to assemble and connect the main material PP and the release film, a bonding device such as UV glue or adhesive can also be used.
[0033] According to one embodiment of this application, the first film transport module 2 and the second film transport module 4 include a release film hopper 8 disposed on the front side, a stacking clamp 9 disposed on the rear side of the release film hopper 8, a picking shaft 10 disposed on the left or right side of the release film hopper 8 and the stacking clamp 9, and a picking device 11 disposed on the picking shaft 10 facing the right or left side; wherein the stacking clamp 9 is slidably connected to the clamp moving track 7.
[0034] Specifically, the release film hopper 8 is used to store the release film, which is manually added. The picking device 11 slides within the picking shaft 10 to remove the release film from the release film hopper 8, slides it to the rear, and finally places it in the stacking clamp 9. The stacking clamp 9 is the main clamp for both the first film transport module 2 and the second film transport module 4. The stacking clamp 9 of the first film transport module 2 is used to clamp the first release film and move it to the right for transport. The stacking clamp 9 of the second film transport module 4 is used to clamp the "second release film - PP main material - first release film" and move it to the right for transport.
[0035] According to one embodiment of this application, an intermediate positioning clamp 12 is disposed between the release film hopper 8 and the stacking clamp 9, and a feeding device 13 is disposed on the rear side of the feeding shaft 10 and facing the right or left side.
[0036] Specifically, the intermediate positioning clamp 12 serves as a buffer position. The material picking device 11 first removes the release film and places it in the intermediate positioning clamp 12, waiting for subsequent removal and use. The material dispensing device 13 performs the function of the aforementioned material picking device 11. After removing the release film from the intermediate positioning clamp 12, it slides along the material picking axis 10 to the rear and places the release film in the stacking clamp 9.
[0037] According to one embodiment of this application, the material handling device 11, the intermediate positioning fixture 12, and the material dispensing device 13 are vacuum adsorption devices.
[0038] Specifically, the material handling device 11 and the material dispensing device 13 can remove or place the release film by vacuum adsorption. The removal or placement can be conveniently controlled by controlling the vacuum in the pipeline through the control of the solenoid valve. When placing the release film, in order to prevent the release film from falling due to external forces (such as wind), a vacuum adsorption device can be added to the intermediate positioning fixture 12 to ensure that the release film is in the intermediate positioning fixture 12.
[0039] Figure 3 This is a top view of a multilayer diaphragm assembly mechanism provided in another embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 3As shown, according to one embodiment of this application, the main material picking module 1 includes a main material hopper 101 disposed on the left side, a first main material robotic arm 103 disposed above the main material hopper 101, and a main material picking shaft 104 disposed in front of and slidably connected to the main material robotic arm 103; the main material conveying module 3 includes a main material conveying shaft 301, a main material placement platform 302 slidably connected to the main material conveying shaft 301, a main material feeding shaft 303 disposed on the right side of the main material placement platform 302, a second main material robotic arm 305 slidably connected to the left side of the main material feeding shaft 303, and a main material clamp 304 disposed in front of the main material placement platform 302; wherein, the main material clamp 304 is slidably connected to the clamp moving track 7; the main material conveying shaft 301 and the main material picking shaft 104 partially overlap in the lateral direction.
[0040] Specifically, the main material hopper 101 is used to store PP main materials, which are also placed manually, and a stack can be placed at a time. The first main material robotic arm 103 is used to take out the PP main materials from the main material hopper 101 and slide along the main material picking axis 104 to the right. At the same time, the main material placement table 302 slides to the left. Since the main material conveying axis 301 and the main material picking axis 104 partially overlap in the lateral direction, after the first main material robotic arm 103 puts down the PP main materials, the PP main materials are placed at the main material placement table 302; then the main material placement table 302 returns to the right. The second main material robotic arm 305 takes out the PP main materials from the main material placement table 302, moves along the main material feeding axis 303 to the bottom, and then puts the PP main materials into the main material clamp 304.
[0041] It should be noted that the main material silo 101 is in Figure 2 Although not shown in the diagram, the operation procedure specifies the need to remove the main material, and the robotic arm itself should inform those skilled in the art that the main material hopper 101 is located in... Figure 1 , 2 It is positioned below the first main material robotic arm 103. The specific structure of the main material hopper 101 can be referenced from the release film hopper 8, and it can be a stackable hopper.
[0042] It should also be noted that the main material placement table 302 here is designed according to... Figure 1-3 The location shown in the diagram is explained for ease of reading and understanding. Specifically, "reset" here refers to the position of the main material placement platform 302 in the diagram. However, in actual operation, the initial position of the main material placement platform 302 should be to the left of the main material transport axis 301. The main material placement platform 302 needs to wait in this left-side position for the arrival of the main material.
[0043] According to one embodiment of this application, a placement platform 14 is provided below the assembly fixture 5, the stacking fixture 9, the main material fixture 304, and the detection fixture 15.
[0044] Specifically, to ensure the continuity of the fixture's operation, it is necessary to ensure that after each fixture is in place, there is material below that can be clamped and immediately moved to the right for transport. A placement platform 14 can be added. The placement platform 14 is used to temporarily place the material from the previous fixture.
[0045] It should be noted that, as Figure 1-3 As shown, the upper end of the assembly line module 17 can also be provided with a placement platform 14 for placing products. Then, the placement platform 14 with products is moved to the outside by a conveyor belt, thereby transporting the products out.

During the second and subsequent operations, it clamps the material and moves to the right simultaneously with the clamp in the first diaphragm handling module 2 in step S050, moving to the initial position of the clamp in the second diaphragm handling module 4, so that the diaphragm and the main material are stacked on the diaphragm at this position.
