Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of adhesive coating equipment technology, specifically to a glue gun clamping and adjusting device and an automated adhesive coating equipment. Background Technology

[0002] In the commissioning phase of automated glue coating production lines, adjusting the angle of the glue gun and changing its model are routine operations during production changeovers. Currently, the mainstream glue gun installation method uses screws to lock the glue gun bracket to the fixture base. When it is necessary to change the glue gun's dispensing angle or replace it with a glue gun of a different installation specification, the operator must disassemble the glue gun and its bracket as a whole from the fixture, complete the angle adjustment or glue gun replacement, and then reposition and tighten it. The entire operation relies on manual repeated disassembly and reassembly of fasteners, which not only makes it difficult to control the accuracy of angle adjustment, but also makes the replacement and commissioning process cumbersome and time-consuming. It cannot achieve quick positioning of the glue gun bracket without disassembly. In automated glue coating scenarios with frequent product changes, the single locking installation structure directly leads to low glue gun commissioning efficiency, which in turn reduces the operating cycle of the entire production line and becomes a core technical problem restricting the flexible production of automated glue coating operations. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The embodiments of the present invention provide a glue gun clamping and debugging device and an automated glue application equipment, which solves the technical problems of existing glue gun installation structures being unable to achieve quick positioning without disassembly and assembly, and the cumbersome debugging process leading to low work efficiency.

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, according to one aspect of this application, an embodiment of the present invention provides a glue gun clamping and adjusting device, including a base assembly, an angle adjustment assembly, a pneumatic clamping assembly, and a support assembly. The angle adjustment assembly is rotatably mounted on the base assembly, the pneumatic clamping assembly is connected to the output end of the angle adjustment assembly, and the support assembly is detachably connected to the pneumatic clamping assembly. The support assembly is used to assemble the glue gun to be used, and the pneumatic clamping assembly can clamp and fix the support assembly and release it. The angle adjustment assembly can rotate relative to the base assembly to adjust the working angle of the glue gun, and the angle adjustment assembly is provided with a locking structure to fix the adjusted angle position.

[0005] In some embodiments, the base assembly includes a mounting base and a rotating support, the rotating support being disposed on the mounting base, and the angle adjustment assembly forming a rotatable connection structure with the mounting base through the rotating support.

[0006] In some embodiments, the angle adjustment assembly includes a rotating disk, an adapter plate, and a locking and positioning component. The rotating disk is sleeved on the outside of the rotating support and can rotate around the central axis of the rotating support. The adapter plate is fixedly connected to the end face of the rotating disk. The locking and positioning component is assembled on the mounting base. The locking and positioning component cooperates with the rotating disk to lock the position of the rotating disk.

[0007] In some embodiments, the outer circumferential surface of the rotating disk is uniformly formed with toothed locking portions along the circumferential direction, and a locking groove is formed between two adjacent sets of toothed locking portions. The locking groove is used to cooperate with the locking positioning member to complete the angle locking.

[0008] In some embodiments, the locking and positioning component includes an operating handle and a vertical locking rod. The mounting base has an integrally formed mounting portion. The operating handle is vertically mounted on the mounting portion via a threaded connection. The vertical locking rod is coaxially fixed to the lower end of the operating handle and passes through the mounting portion. Turning the operating handle can drive the vertical locking rod to move up and down. When the vertical locking rod descends, it can be engaged in the locking groove to restrict the rotation of the rotating disc. One end of the rotating disc is disposed within the mounting portion.

[0009] In some embodiments, the pneumatic clamping assembly includes a support plate and a pneumatic clamping unit. The support plate is fixedly connected to the side of the adapter plate away from the rotating disk. The pneumatic clamping unit is fixedly installed on the support plate, and the clamping action end of the pneumatic clamping unit is oriented towards the bracket assembly.

[0010] In some embodiments, the bracket assembly includes a bracket body and a positioning pin. The positioning pin is horizontally fixed to the side of the bracket body facing the support plate. The positioning pin is coaxially arranged with a pneumatic clamping unit. The clamping end of the pneumatic clamping unit can grip the positioning pin to fix the bracket body.

[0011] In some embodiments, the end of the positioning pin is formed with a tapered guide surface, and the clamping end of the pneumatic clamping unit is provided with a tapered sleeve clamping structure adapted to the tapered guide surface. The tapered sleeve clamping structure clamps and releases the positioning pin as the pneumatic clamping unit moves.

[0012] In some embodiments, the support body has at least two elongated adjustment slots, which extend along the length of the support body and are used to pass fasteners through to fix glue guns to be used at different mounting hole positions.

[0013] In some embodiments, multiple elongated adjustment grooves are arranged in parallel to each other, and the length of the elongated adjustment grooves is greater than the position adjustment stroke of the conventional glue gun mounting hole, so as to adapt to glue guns with different outer diameters and different installation spacings.

[0014] In some embodiments, the mounting base has a plurality of external fixing holes on its plate, which are distributed at the edge of the mounting base and are used to fix the glue gun clamping and adjusting device to the frame of the automated glue coating equipment.

[0015] According to another aspect of this application, an embodiment of the present invention provides an automated glue application device, including a machine frame, a glue application gun, and the aforementioned glue gun clamping and adjusting device. The glue gun clamping and adjusting device is fixedly mounted on the machine frame via a base assembly, and the glue application gun is fixedly mounted on a bracket assembly. The automated glue application device enables the angle adjustment and disassembly / replacement of the glue application gun through the glue gun clamping and adjusting device.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the glue gun clamping and adjusting device of the present invention has the following advantages: The glue gun clamping and adjusting device provided by the present invention includes a base assembly, an angle adjustment assembly, a pneumatic clamping assembly, and a support assembly. The angle adjustment assembly is rotatably mounted on the base assembly. The pneumatic clamping assembly is connected to the output end of the angle adjustment assembly. The support assembly is detachably connected to the pneumatic clamping assembly. The support assembly is used to assemble the glue gun to be used. The pneumatic clamping assembly can clamp and fix the support assembly and release it. The angle adjustment assembly can rotate relative to the base assembly to adjust the working angle of the glue gun. The angle adjustment assembly is provided with a locking structure to fix the adjusted angle position.

[0017] Traditional glue gun fixing methods use a screw-locking structure. When adjusting the glue gun angle or changing the glue gun model, the glue gun and its bracket must be completely disassembled and repositioned and locked. The entire process relies on repeated manual disassembly and reassembly of fasteners, making the operation lengthy. This embodiment uses a pneumatic clamping component to clamp and release the bracket assembly, allowing for glue gun assembly and disassembly without removing screws. Simultaneously, the rotatable angle adjustment component allows for direct angle adjustment, enabling posture calibration without disassembling the glue gun, thus simplifying the glue gun adjustment process.

[0018] The automated glue application equipment provided by this invention is designed based on the above-mentioned glue gun clamping and adjustment device. Its beneficial effects are the same as those of the glue gun clamping and adjustment device, and will not be repeated here.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0025] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0026] Example 1 The glue gun clamping and adjustment device provided in this embodiment belongs to intelligent manufacturing equipment, which can achieve precise clamping, positioning, and angle adjustment of the glue gun. Figures 1-11 As shown, it includes a base assembly 1, an angle adjustment assembly 2, a pneumatic clamping assembly 3, and a support assembly 4. The angle adjustment assembly 2 is rotatably mounted on the base assembly 1. The pneumatic clamping assembly 3 is connected to the output end of the angle adjustment assembly 2. The support assembly 4 is detachably connected to the pneumatic clamping assembly 3. The support assembly 4 is used to mount the glue gun 5 to be used. The pneumatic clamping assembly 3 can clamp and fix the support assembly 4 and release it. The angle adjustment assembly 2 can rotate relative to the base assembly 1 to adjust the working angle of the glue gun 5, and the angle adjustment assembly 2 is provided with a locking structure to fix the adjusted angle position.

[0027] In this embodiment, the base assembly 1 constitutes the mounting base of the entire clamping and adjusting device, providing assembly support for the angle adjustment assembly 2, the pneumatic clamping assembly 3, and the bracket assembly 4. The angle adjustment assembly 2 achieves circumferential rotation based on the base assembly 1, and the pneumatic clamping assembly 3 is fixedly connected to the angle adjustment assembly 2, forming a synchronously moving overall structure. The bracket assembly 4 serves as the mounting carrier for the glue gun 5 to be used, and can be detached and connected with the pneumatic clamping assembly 3. The pneumatic clamping assembly 3 uses its own pneumatic drive structure to clamp or release the bracket assembly 4. The angle adjustment assembly 2, through its own rotation, drives the rear clamping structure to synchronously change its spatial posture with the glue gun, while the locking structure restricts the rotational freedom of the angle adjustment assembly 2 after the angle adjustment is completed.

[0028] During actual assembly and operation, the entire device is fixed with the base assembly 1 as the reference. The operator assembles the glue gun 5 to be used onto the bracket assembly 4, and then connects the bracket assembly 4 to the pneumatic clamping assembly 3, which clamps and fixes it in place. When it is necessary to change the glue gun's dispensing angle, the drive angle adjustment assembly 2 rotates relative to the base assembly 1, causing the pneumatic clamping assembly 3, bracket assembly 4, and glue gun to deflect synchronously. Once the angle is reached, the locking structure fixes the position. When it is necessary to replace or repair the glue gun, the pneumatic clamping assembly 3 is released from its clamping state, and the bracket assembly 4 and glue gun 5 can be removed directly to complete the disassembly and assembly.

[0029] This embodiment specifically addresses the technical problems of existing glue gun mounting structures, such as the inability to achieve rapid positioning without disassembly and the cumbersome debugging process leading to low work efficiency. Traditional glue gun fixing methods use a screw-locking structure. When adjusting the glue gun angle or changing the glue gun model, the glue gun and its bracket must be completely disassembled and repositioned and locked. This entire process relies on repeated manual disassembly and reassembly of fasteners, making the operation lengthy. This embodiment uses a pneumatic clamping component 3 to clamp and release the bracket component 4, allowing for glue gun assembly and disassembly without removing screws. Simultaneously, the rotatable angle adjustment component 2 directly adjusts the angle, enabling posture calibration without disassembling the glue gun, thus simplifying the glue gun debugging process.

[0030] In a specific embodiment, the base assembly 1 includes a mounting base 11 and a rotating support 12. The rotating support 12 is disposed on the mounting base 11, and the angle adjustment assembly 2 forms a rotatable connection structure with the mounting base 11 through the rotating support 12.

[0031] The mounting base 11 is the main body of the base assembly 1, and the rotating support 12 is fixedly mounted at the center of the mounting base 11. The angle adjustment assembly 2 is rotatably connected to the rotating support 12, which provides central rotational support for the angle adjustment assembly 2, enabling the angle adjustment assembly 2 to rotate circumferentially around a fixed central axis.

[0032] This structure separates the fixed installation part from the rotary support part. The mounting base 11 remains stationary, while the rotary support 12 independently undertakes the rotational coordination function, so that the rotational movement of the angle adjustment component 2 does not interfere with the overall installation of the device.

[0033] In a specific embodiment, the angle adjustment component 2 includes a rotating disk 21, an adapter plate 22, and a locking and positioning component 23. The rotating disk 21 is sleeved on the outside of the rotating support 12 and can rotate around the central axis of the rotating support 12. The adapter plate 22 is fixedly connected to the end face of the rotating disk 21. The locking and positioning component 23 is assembled on the mounting base 11. The locking and positioning component 23 cooperates with the rotating disk 21 to lock the position of the rotating disk 21.

[0034] The rotating disk 21 is sleeved on the outside of the rotating support 12 and can rotate freely around the central axis of the rotating support 12. The adapter plate 22 is fixed to the end face of the rotating disk 21, serving as an intermediate connector to achieve a rigid connection between the rotating disk 21 and the pneumatic clamping assembly 3, ensuring that the pneumatic clamping assembly 3 can move synchronously when the rotating disk 21 rotates. The locking and positioning component 23 is fixed on the mounting base 11, and forms a mechanical engagement structure with the rotating disk 21 based on the stationary mounting base 11, thereby restricting the rotation of the rotating disk 21.

[0035] During operation, the operator can directly move the rotating disc 21, which will drive the clamping structure at the rear end and the glue gun to change the angle synchronously through the adapter plate 22. After the angle is adjusted to the target position, the locking and positioning component 23 will engage with the rotating disc 21 to keep the rotating disc 21 in a fixed position.

[0036] Specifically, the outer circumferential surface of the rotating disk 21 is uniformly formed with toothed locking parts 211 along the circumferential direction, and a locking groove 212 is formed between two adjacent sets of toothed locking parts 211. The locking groove 212 is used to cooperate with the locking positioning member 23 to complete the angle locking.

[0037] In this embodiment, the outer circular structure of the rotating disk body 21 is defined. Multiple sets of toothed locking portions 211 are uniformly machined circumferentially on the circumferential sidewall of the rotating disk body 21, and concave locking grooves 212 are naturally formed between adjacent toothed locking portions 211. The toothed locking portions 211 and locking grooves 212 are evenly distributed circumferentially, forming multiple locking positions in the circumferential direction of the rotating disk body 21.

[0038] When the rotating disk 21 rotates to any position, the corresponding locking groove 212 can be used as the mating point of the locking positioning member 23. The locking positioning member 23 can extend into the locking groove 212 and, by relying on the blocking effect of the side wall of the toothed locking part 211, restrict the rotating disk 21 from continuing to rotate circumferentially.

[0039] More specifically, the locking and positioning component 23 includes an operating handle 231 and a vertical locking rod 232. The mounting base 11 has an integrally formed mounting part 13. The operating handle 231 is vertically mounted on the mounting part 13 by threaded engagement. The vertical locking rod 232 is coaxially fixed to the lower end of the operating handle 231 and passes through the mounting part 13. Turning the operating handle 231 can drive the vertical locking rod 232 to move up and down. When the vertical locking rod 232 descends, it can be locked into the locking groove 212 to restrict the rotation of the rotating disc 21. One end of the rotating disc 21 is located inside the mounting part 13.

[0040] The mounting part 13 and the mounting base 11 are integrally formed. The operating handle 231 is assembled onto the mounting part 13 by means of a threaded structure. The vertical locking rod 232 is coaxially fixed with the operating handle 231, and the two form a synchronously moving whole. The end of the rotating disk 21 is housed in the internal space of the mounting part 13, and the lifting and lowering trajectory of the vertical locking rod 232 is aligned with the locking groove 212 on the rotating disk 21.

[0041] In actual operation, loosening the operating handle 231 causes the threaded structure to lift the vertical locking rod 232 upward. After the vertical locking rod 232 disengages from the locking groove 212, the rotating disc 21 can rotate freely. Tightening the operating handle 231 causes the vertical locking rod 232 to move downward and extend into the locking groove 212. The position of the rotating disc 21 is fixed by the abutting cooperation between the vertical locking rod 232 and the toothed locking part 211.

[0042] In a specific embodiment, the pneumatic clamping assembly 3 includes a support plate 31 and a pneumatic clamping unit 32. The support plate 31 is fixedly connected to the side of the adapter plate 22 away from the rotating disk 21. The pneumatic clamping unit 32 is fixedly installed on the support plate 31, and the clamping action end of the pneumatic clamping unit 32 is set towards the bracket assembly 4.

[0043] The support plate 31 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the adapter plate 22, forming a rigid connection with the adapter plate 22 and the rotating disk 21, and can rotate synchronously with the rotating disk 21. The pneumatic clamping unit 32 is fixedly installed on the support plate 31, with its clamping action end facing the direction of the bracket assembly 4, ensuring that the position of the clamping structure corresponds to that of the docking component.

[0044] The support plate 31 provides a stable mounting carrier for the pneumatic clamping unit 32. The pneumatic clamping unit 32 is integrated into the rotating end of the angle adjustment component 2, so that the pneumatic clamping unit 32 can complete the angle adjustment synchronously with the glue gun, ensuring that the clamping and docking position always maintains a fixed relative posture.

[0045] In a specific embodiment, the support assembly 4 includes a support body 41 and a positioning pin 42. The positioning pin 42 is horizontally fixed to the side of the support body 41 facing the support plate 31. The positioning pin 42 and the pneumatic clamping unit 32 are arranged coaxially opposite each other. The clamping end of the pneumatic clamping unit 32 can grip the positioning pin 42 to fix the support body 41. The support body 41 is the mounting base for the glue gun. The positioning pin 42 is horizontally fixed to the side of the support body 41 facing the support plate 31, and the axis of the positioning pin 42 is coaxially aligned with the clamping center of the pneumatic clamping unit 32.

[0046] During assembly, the operator aligns the positioning pin 42 with the clamping end of the pneumatic clamping unit 32. After the pneumatic clamping unit 32 is activated, the clamping end grips the positioning pin 42 inward, using the clamping force to fix the bracket body 41 to the front end of the bearing plate 31, thus completing the assembly and fixation of the bracket assembly 4. When it is necessary to disassemble the bracket assembly 4, the pneumatic clamping unit 32 releases its gripping state, and the positioning pin 42 is no longer subject to clamping constraints, allowing the bracket assembly 4 to be removed directly.

[0047] More specifically, the end of the positioning pin 42 is formed with a tapered guide surface 421, and the clamping end of the pneumatic clamping unit 32 is provided with a tapered sleeve clamping structure that is adapted to the tapered guide surface 421. The tapered sleeve clamping structure clamps and releases the positioning pin 42 with the movement of the pneumatic clamping unit 32.

[0048] This embodiment optimizes the mating structure between the positioning pin 42 and the pneumatic clamping unit 32. The end of the positioning pin 42 is machined to form a tapered guide surface 421. The clamping end of the pneumatic clamping unit 32 is equipped with a tapered sleeve clamping structure, where the inner tapered surface of the tapered sleeve clamping structure matches the taper of the tapered guide surface 421. During the docking process of the bracket assembly 4, the tapered guide surface 421 guides the positioning pin 42, automatically correcting minor positional deviations during assembly, allowing the positioning pin 42 to smoothly enter the interior of the tapered sleeve clamping structure. When the pneumatic clamping unit 32 drives the tapered sleeve clamping structure to tighten, the inner tapered surface and the tapered guide surface 421 are completely fitted together, and the clamping and fixing are completed by the squeezing action of the tapered surface; when the tapered sleeve clamping structure opens, the two separate, completing the release.

[0049] Specifically, the support body 41 has at least two elongated adjustment slots 411, which extend along the length of the support body 41. These slots are used to insert fasteners to secure glue guns with different mounting hole positions. Multiple elongated adjustment slots 411 extending along the length of the support body 41 allow fasteners to slide within the slots.

[0050] When assembling the glue gun, the operator adjusts the position of the fastener within the elongated adjustment groove 411 according to the mounting hole position of the glue gun to be used, ensuring that the fastener aligns with the mounting hole of the glue gun. Then, the fastener is tightened to secure the glue gun to the bracket body 41. The sliding structure of the elongated adjustment groove 411 can accommodate glue guns with different mounting hole positions, achieving compatible assembly of multiple glue guns on the same bracket body 41.

[0051] Multiple elongated adjustment slots 411 are arranged in parallel to each other. The length of each elongated adjustment slot 411 is greater than the position adjustment stroke of a conventional glue gun mounting hole, used to adapt to glue guns with different outer diameters and different mounting hole spacings. The parallel arrangement of the multiple elongated adjustment slots 411 allows for synchronous adjustment of multiple points on the glue gun, ensuring uniform force when the glue gun is fixed. The sufficient length reserved in the slots can adapt to glue guns with different outer diameters and different mounting hole spacings, expanding the adaptability range of the support body 41.

[0052] The mounting base 11 has several external fixing holes 111 on its plate. These holes are located at the edge of the mounting base 11 and are used to fix the glue gun clamping and adjusting device to the frame of the automated glue application equipment. Multiple external fixing holes 111 are provided in the edge area of ​​the mounting base 11 and are distributed along the surface of the mounting base 11.

[0053] During assembly, fasteners pass through the external fixing holes 111 to fix the mounting base 11 as a whole onto the frame of the automated gluing equipment. The multiple external fixing holes 111 can achieve multi-point locking between the mounting base 11 and the frame, completing the positioning and installation of the entire device.

[0054] The complete working process of the glue gun clamping and adjustment device provided in this implementation is as follows: During the equipment debugging phase of the automated glue coating production line, the operator first uses the external fixing holes 111 on the edge of the mounting base 11 to lock and fix the entire glue gun clamping and debugging device onto the frame of the automated equipment, thus completing the installation and positioning of the base component 1. At this time, the mounting base 11 remains stationary, and the rotating disc 21 can rotate freely by relying on the rotating support 12 embedded in the mounting base 11.

[0055] In the pre-assembly stage of the glue gun, the operator slides and adjusts the position of the fastening screws in the elongated adjustment groove 411 of the bracket body 41 according to the mounting hole position of the glue gun to be used, so that the screw points correspond one by one with the mounting holes of the glue gun. After tightening the fasteners, the glue gun is fixed on the bracket body 41, completing the pre-assembly of the glue gun and the bracket assembly 4. Then, holding the bracket assembly 4, the operator aligns the positioning pin 42 on one side of the bracket body 41 horizontally with the clamping end of the pneumatic clamping unit 32. The positioning pin 42 automatically corrects the alignment deviation by relying on the tapered guide surface 421 at the end of the positioning pin 42, so that the positioning pin 42 and the pneumatic clamping unit 32 are coaxially aligned, completing the pre-alignment of the bracket assembly 4. A driving air source is supplied to the pneumatic clamping unit 32, and the conical sleeve clamping structure at the clamping end contracts inward and fits tightly against the conical guide surface 421 of the positioning pin 42. The positioning pin 42 is clamped by the conical surface extrusion force, and the entire bracket assembly 4 together with the pre-assembled glue gun is firmly fixed on the bearing plate 31, realizing the integrated assembly of the glue gun and the angle adjustment assembly 2.

[0056] In the glue gun angle adjustment process, the operator first turns the operating handle 231 on the mounting part 13 clockwise. Under the action of the threaded transmission, the vertical locking rod 232 is lifted upward, causing the vertical locking rod 232 to disengage from the locking groove 212 on the outer circumference of the rotating disc 21, thus releasing the circumferential locking constraint on the rotating disc 21. After the locking is released, the operator manually moves the rotating disc 21, causing it to move circumferentially around the central axis of the rotating support 12. The rotation of the rotating disc 21 is synchronously transmitted to the bearing plate 31 through the adapter plate 22 fixed at the end face, which in turn drives the pneumatic clamping unit 32, the bracket assembly 4, and the glue gun to deflect synchronously. The operator adjusts the glue gun's dispensing end to the target spatial angle according to the glue application process requirements. Once the glue gun is in the correct position, rotate the handle 231 in the opposite direction to drive the vertical locking rod 232 downwards. This causes the lower end of the vertical locking rod 232 to engage in the corresponding locking groove 212 on the rotating disc 21. Through the mechanical contact between the vertical locking rod 232 and the toothed locking part 211, the rotational freedom of the rotating disc 21 is locked, fixing the working angle of the glue gun. This prevents the glue gun from shifting during subsequent glue application.

[0057] When changing production models or overhauling glue guns, if a different specification of glue gun needs to be used, the operator loosens the operating handle 231 to release the angle lock, keeping the glue gun angle in the working position. Then, the operator depressurizes the pneumatic clamping unit 32, causing the cone sleeve clamping structure to open and release the positioning pin 42. Once the bracket assembly 4 is no longer clamped, it can be directly pulled out from the front end of the pneumatic clamping unit 32. The operator then pre-installs the new glue gun onto another compatible bracket assembly 4, repeating the alignment and pneumatic clamping process to quickly complete the glue gun replacement. The angle adjustment and glue gun assembly / disassembly of the entire device do not require disassembling the main structure; the entire process relies on pneumatic operation and manual rotation. After the current production task is completed, the entire device can be removed from the equipment frame by removing the fasteners in the external fixing hole 111, completing the overall disassembly and assembly of the equipment.

[0058] Example 2 This embodiment provides an automated glue application equipment, including an equipment frame, a glue application execution gun, and the glue gun clamping and adjustment device described in Embodiment 1. The glue gun clamping and adjustment device is fixedly mounted on the equipment frame via a base assembly, and the glue application execution gun is fixedly mounted on a bracket assembly 4. The automated glue application equipment realizes the angle adjustment and disassembly / replacement of the glue application execution gun through the glue gun clamping and adjustment device.

[0059] This embodiment defines an automated glue application equipment equipped with the glue gun clamping and adjusting device. The equipment frame is the main support of the entire glue application equipment. The glue gun clamping and adjusting device is fixed on the equipment frame by the base assembly. The glue application execution glue gun is assembled on the bracket assembly 4, forming a complete glue application execution unit.

[0060] During the operation of the automated glue application equipment, the operator adjusts and locks the angle of the glue application gun using the glue gun clamping and adjustment device. When changing products, the glue application gun can be disassembled and replaced directly through the pneumatic clamping component 3.
