Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of wax application machine technology, and particularly to a wax application machine. Background Technology

[0002] During the production of bird deterrent projectiles, wax sealing is required at the fuse part or specific locations on the projectile body. This process is crucial for ensuring the moisture resistance, storage stability, and safety of the bird deterrent projectiles.

[0003] Currently, the waxing process in bird repellent bullet production is mainly done manually. However, the traditional manual waxing method has many drawbacks: First, bird repellent bullets are usually produced in large batches, and manual waxing is inefficient and cannot meet the needs of large-scale production; second, manual operation makes it difficult to ensure that the waxing position and amount of wax for each bird repellent bullet are completely consistent, resulting in inconsistent sealing effects and affecting the moisture-proof performance and shelf life of the bird repellent bullets; third, the wax liquid usually needs to be kept at a high temperature to maintain its fluidity, and manual operation poses a risk of burns; finally, the wax liquid is prone to dripping and being wasted during manual waxing, increasing production costs.

[0004] Therefore, how to provide a waxing device that can improve the efficiency of bird deterrent spraying, ensure the consistency of waxing quality, and reduce safety risks and production costs is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention provides a wax application machine, which aims to overcome the problems existing in the prior art.

[0006] This invention provides a wax application machine, comprising: Mounting base; A rotating assembly is fixed to the mounting base. A fixing plate is rotatably mounted on the rotating assembly. The fixing plate is used to support the workpiece to be waxed and drive the workpiece to be waxed to rotate. There are multiple sets of rotating assemblies. The wax application component is mounted on the mounting base via a multi-axis moving component and is driven by the multi-axis moving component to the corresponding position of the workpiece to be waxed to perform the wax application operation.

[0007] In one embodiment, the rotating assembly includes a mounting plate and a drive motor. The drive motor is rotatably mounted on the mounting plate, and a rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on the output end of the drive motor. The fixed plate is fixed to the rotating shaft and rotates with the rotating shaft. The rotation direction of the drive motor is perpendicular to the rotation direction of the fixed plate.

[0008] In one embodiment, the mounting plate includes a first mounting plate and a second mounting plate. The first mounting plate is vertically mounted on the mounting base, and one side of the second mounting plate is hinged to the first mounting plate, while the other side is fixedly connected to the drive motor. The first mounting plate is provided with a limit structure to limit the flipping angle of the second mounting plate.

[0009] In one embodiment, the multi-axis moving assembly includes an X-axis slide table and a Z-axis lifting module. The X-axis slide table is fixedly mounted on the mounting base by a support column, and the Z-axis lifting module is vertically mounted on the slider of the X-axis slide table. The wax application assembly is fixed to the lifting end of the Z-axis lifting module.

[0010] In one embodiment, the X-axis slide is provided with a horizontal guide rail and an X-axis cylinder. The piston rod of the X-axis cylinder is connected to the slider and drives the slider to reciprocate along the horizontal guide rail.

[0011] In one embodiment, the Z-axis lifting module includes a slide cylinder. One end of the slide cylinder is fixed to the slider of the X-axis slide, and the other end is connected to the wax application assembly through a lifting plate, thereby driving the wax application assembly to reciprocate in the vertical direction.

[0012] In one embodiment, the wax dispensing assembly includes a wax storage tank and a wax dispensing head. The lower end of the wax storage tank is provided with a wax outlet, and the wax dispensing head is disposed at the wax outlet. A leakage valve is also provided at the wax outlet to control the flow rate and start / stop of the wax liquid flowing from the wax dispensing head out of the wax storage tank.

[0013] In one embodiment, the wax storage tank is equipped with a heating device and a temperature sensor. The heating device and the temperature sensor are electrically connected to the control system to monitor and regulate the temperature of the wax liquid in the wax storage tank.

[0014] In one embodiment, the wax dispensing assembly further includes an adjusting component, which includes an adjusting cylinder and an adjusting rod connected to the output end of the adjusting cylinder. The adjusting component is disposed on the side of the wax storage tank and extends into the wax storage tank through the adjusting rod to abut against the leakage valve. The adjusting cylinder is used to drive the adjusting rod to open and close the leakage valve.

[0015] In one embodiment, the mounting base is also provided with a drip collection tank, which is located below the wax application assembly and faces the output end of the wax application assembly, and is used to collect excess wax that drips during the wax application process.

[0016] This invention, through the use of multiple rotating components, can simultaneously carry multiple bird-repellent projectiles, enabling batch waxing operations. This solves the problem of low efficiency in traditional manual waxing, significantly improving the production efficiency of bird-repellent projectiles and meeting the needs of large-scale production. By driving the waxing component to move in multiple dimensions through a multi-axis moving component, the waxing position of each bird-repellent projectile can be precisely positioned. Combined with the rotation of the workpiece by the rotating component, uniform, circumferential waxing can be achieved, ensuring consistency in waxing position and uniformity of wax coating, thereby improving the sealing and moisture-proof effect of the bird-repellent projectiles and increasing product yield. Furthermore, this application uses automated mechanical operations to replace manual operation, avoiding direct contact between operators and high-temperature wax, eliminating the risk of burns. Simultaneously, precise control reduces wax dripping waste, lowering production costs. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The wax dispensing machine provided in this embodiment of the invention specifically includes: Mounting base 10; The rotating assembly 20 is fixed on the mounting base 10. A fixing plate 21 is rotatably mounted on the rotating assembly 20. The fixing plate 21 is used to support the workpiece to be waxed and drive the workpiece to be waxed to rotate. The rotating assembly 20 is provided with multiple sets. The wax application component 30 is mounted on the mounting base 10 via the multi-axis moving component 40 and is driven by the multi-axis moving component 40 to the corresponding position of the workpiece to be waxed to perform the wax application operation.

[0025] In this embodiment, by setting multiple sets of rotating components 20, multiple bird-repellent bullet workpieces can be carried simultaneously, realizing batch waxing operations, solving the problem of low efficiency of traditional manual waxing, greatly improving the production efficiency of bird-repellent bullets, and meeting the needs of large-scale production.

[0026] In this embodiment, the multi-axis moving component 40 drives the wax application component 30 to move in multiple dimensions, which can accurately position the wax application position of each bird repellent bullet. In conjunction with the rotating component 20 to drive the workpiece to rotate, it can achieve uniform wax application around the perimeter, ensuring the consistency of the wax application position and the uniformity of the wax coating, thereby improving the sealing and moisture-proof effect of the bird repellent bullet and the product yield.

[0027] In addition, this application uses automated mechanical operations to replace manual operations, avoiding direct contact between operators and high-temperature wax liquid, eliminating the risk of burns, and reducing wax dripping and waste through precise control, thereby lowering production costs.

[0028] In one embodiment, the rotating assembly 20 includes a mounting plate and a drive motor 22. The drive motor 22 is rotatably mounted on the mounting plate, and a rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on the output end of the drive motor 22. A fixing plate 21 is fixed on the rotating shaft and rotates with the rotating shaft. The rotation direction of the drive motor 22 is perpendicular to the rotation direction of the fixing plate 21.

[0029] In this embodiment, by setting the rotation direction of the drive motor 22 to be perpendicular to the rotation direction of the fixed plate 21, the fixed plate 21 can drive the bird deterrent bullet to rotate in the horizontal plane. At the same time, by adjusting the angle of the drive motor 22, the workpiece can be positioned at multiple angles in space. This allows the position of the workpiece to be waxed to be aligned with the output end of the waxing assembly 30 by rotation, thereby improving the flexibility and coverage of the waxing operation.

[0030] In one embodiment, the mounting plate includes a first mounting plate 23 and a second mounting plate 24. The first mounting plate 23 is vertically mounted on the mounting base 10, and one side of the second mounting plate 24 is hinged to the first mounting plate 23, while the other side is fixedly connected to the drive motor 22. The first mounting plate 23 is provided with a limit structure to limit the flipping angle of the second mounting plate 24.

[0031] In this embodiment, by setting a first mounting plate 23 and a second mounting plate 24 that are hinged to each other, and by setting a limiting structure on the first mounting plate 23, the rotation angle of the second mounting plate 24 is limited, thereby controlling the rotation range of the drive motor 22 within a preset range. This prevents the motor from excessively rotating, which could lead to interference or collision with other components, and ensures the stability and safety of the equipment operation. In specific application scenarios, the rotation angle of the drive motor 22 (the setting value of the limiting structure) can be set according to the actual needs of the scenario.

[0032] In one embodiment, the multi-axis moving assembly 40 includes an X-axis slide 41 and a Z-axis lifting module 42. The X-axis slide 41 is fixedly mounted on the mounting base 10 by a support column, and the Z-axis lifting module 42 is vertically mounted on the slider of the X-axis slide 41. The waxing assembly 30 is fixed to the lifting end of the Z-axis lifting module 42.

[0033] In this embodiment, by setting up an X-axis slide 41 and a Z-axis lifting module 42, and fixing the wax-applying assembly 30 to the lifting end of the Z-axis lifting module 42, the wax-applying assembly 30 can move flexibly in both the horizontal and vertical directions, accurately reaching the wax-applying position of the corresponding bird-repelling bullet above each rotating component 20. The layout of the X-axis slide 41, supported by a support column and mounted on the mounting base 10, provides ample operating space for the rotating components 20 below, facilitating simultaneous wax-applying of multiple bird-repelling bullets. The Z-axis lifting module 42 can adjust the distance between the wax-applying assembly 30 and the workpiece according to the different heights of the bird-repelling bullets, ensuring that the wax-applying head 32 is always at the optimal working height, adapting to the wax-applying needs of different specifications of bird-repelling bullets, and improving the versatility and operational accuracy of the equipment.

[0034] In specific application scenarios, multiple sets of rotating components 20 can be arranged side by side along the X-axis slide 41, thus forming an assembly line-style operation layout. While the X-axis slide 41 completes the waxing of the bird-repelling bullets on the rotating components 20, other rotating components 20 can simultaneously perform loading, positioning, or unloading operations, significantly improving the overall operation cycle time. The specific number of rotating components 20 can be flexibly configured according to actual production capacity requirements.

[0035] In other embodiments, a Y-axis translation module can be added to the X-axis slide 41 and the Z-axis lifting module 42 to form a three-dimensional positioning system. This enables the wax application component 30 to be positioned and moved in the X, Y, and Z directions, further expanding the spatial freedom of the wax application operation and allowing the wax application component 30 to accurately reach any spatial coordinate point. Correspondingly, with the introduction of the Y-axis translation module, the wax application operation is no longer limited to a linear trajectory in a single plane. That is, multiple sets of rotating components 20 are no longer limited to a straight line arrangement in the X-axis direction, but can be flexibly configured in a matrix, ring, or other spatial layout, thereby making more efficient use of the planar space of the mounting base 10.

[0036] In one embodiment, the X-axis slide 41 is provided with a horizontal guide rail 411 and an X-axis cylinder 412. The piston rod of the X-axis cylinder 412 is connected to the slider and drives the slider to reciprocate along the horizontal guide rail 411.

[0037] In this embodiment, by setting a horizontal guide rail 411 and an X-axis cylinder 412 on the X-axis slide table 41, the cylinder piston rod directly drives the slider to reciprocate along the guide rail, making the horizontal movement of the wax application assembly 30 smoother and more stable. The cylinder-driven method has a simple structure and fast response speed, which can meet the rapid switching requirements between multiple sets of rotating assemblies 20, effectively shortening the cycle time of wax application and improving the production efficiency of the equipment. In specific application scenarios, the number of horizontal guide rails 411 can be set to single or double depending on the motion accuracy and load requirements.

[0038] In one embodiment, the Z-axis lifting module 42 includes a slide cylinder 421. One end of the slide cylinder 421 is fixed to the slider of the X-axis slide 41, and the other end is connected to the waxing assembly 30 through a lifting plate, thereby driving the waxing assembly 30 to reciprocate in the vertical direction.

[0039] In this embodiment, a sliding cylinder 421 is used as the Z-axis lifting module 42. The wax application component 30 is mounted on the lifting plate and directly driven by the sliding cylinder 421 to reciprocate vertically. This ensures that the wax application component 30 moves smoothly and is accurately positioned as it approaches or moves away from the bird deterrent. The sliding cylinder 421 has a compact structure and occupies little space, making it easy to integrate with the X-axis sliding table 41. It can also quickly adjust the distance between the wax application head 32 and the workpiece according to the height difference of the bird deterrent, ensuring a consistent starting height for each wax application operation and thus guaranteeing the quality of the wax application.

[0040] In one embodiment, the wax dispensing assembly 30 includes a wax storage tank 31 and a wax dispensing head 32. The lower end of the wax storage tank 31 is provided with a wax outlet, and the wax dispensing head 32 is provided at the wax outlet. A leakage valve 33 is also provided at the wax outlet to control the flow rate and start / stop of the wax liquid flowing from the wax dispensing head 32 out of the wax storage tank 31.

[0041] In this embodiment, a wax-dispensing head 32 is installed at the wax outlet at the lower end of the wax storage tank 31, and a drain valve 33 is added to control the flow rate and start / stop of the wax liquid, making the supply of wax liquid more precise and controllable during the waxing operation. When the wax-dispensing assembly 30 moves to the waxing position of the bird-repelling projectile, the drain valve 33 opens, and the wax liquid flows out from the wax-dispensing head 32 and is evenly coated on the surface of the workpiece; after waxing is completed, the drain valve 33 closes to prevent the wax liquid from continuing to drip. This instant-on-stop control method not only ensures that the amount of wax used for each bird-repelling projectile is consistent and improves the sealing quality of the fuse part, but also effectively avoids unnecessary waste of wax liquid, reduces production costs, and enables the equipment to adapt to the differentiated wax usage requirements of different specifications of bird-repelling projectiles.

[0042] In one embodiment, a heating device 34 and a temperature sensor are provided inside the wax storage tank 31. The heating device 34 and the temperature sensor are electrically connected to the control system to monitor and regulate the temperature of the wax liquid inside the wax storage tank 31.

[0043] In this embodiment, by installing a heating device 34 and a temperature sensor inside the wax storage tank 31 and electrically connecting them to the control system, the temperature of the wax liquid inside the wax storage tank 31 can be monitored and adjusted in real time.

[0044] The heating device 34 ensures that the molten wax in the can remains in a good flow state throughout the long-term operation, preventing the wax from solidifying due to temperature drops and thus preventing it from flowing out smoothly. A temperature sensor, in conjunction with the control system, monitors and adjusts the operating status of the heating device 34 in real time, ensuring that the wax temperature remains stable within a suitable range. This guarantees the fluidity of the wax during application, improves the production efficiency of bird deterrents, and prevents temperature fluctuations from affecting the quality of the wax application. In specific applications, the heating device 34 may include one or more heating tubes (or heating rods).

[0045] In one embodiment, the wax application assembly 30 further includes an adjustment component, which includes an adjustment cylinder 35 and an adjustment rod 36 connected to the output end of the adjustment cylinder 35. The adjustment component is disposed on the side of the wax storage tank 31 and extends into the wax storage tank 31 through the adjustment rod 36 to abut against the leakage valve 33. The adjustment cylinder 35 is used to drive the adjustment rod 36 to open and close the leakage valve 33.

[0046] In this embodiment, by setting an adjusting cylinder 35 and an adjusting rod 36 on the side of the wax storage tank 31, the adjusting cylinder 35 drives the adjusting rod 36, which extends into the wax storage tank 31, to control the opening and closing of the leakage valve 33, thereby realizing the automated and precise control of the wax outflow.

[0047] In a specific application scenario, when the waxing assembly 30 moves to the waxing position of the bird deterrent bullet, the adjusting cylinder 35 pushes the adjusting rod 36 to open the leakage valve 33, and the wax flows out from the waxing head 32; after the waxing is completed, the adjusting rod 36 resets and closes the leakage valve 33, cutting off the wax supply in time.

[0048] In one embodiment, the mounting base 10 is also provided with a drip collection tank 11, which is located below the waxing assembly 30 and faces the output end of the waxing assembly 30, and is used to collect excess wax liquid dripping during the waxing process.

[0049] In this embodiment, by setting a drip collection tank 11 on the mounting base 10 and arranging it below the waxing assembly 30 and towards the output end of the waxing head 32, excess wax that may drip during the waxing process can be collected in a timely manner, thereby keeping the work surface clean, ensuring the long-term continuous operation of the equipment, and preventing the accumulation of wax from affecting the accuracy of the equipment or causing safety hazards.
