Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of filter manufacturing technology, specifically to a dispensing device for automotive filter manufacturing. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of automotive filters, adhesive application is required to ensure that all components are firmly bonded, achieve sealing and isolation, prevent media leakage, and ensure filtration effect and engine system safety. Adhesive application is required at the end of the filter element to bond it to the end cap, which increases the stability of installation and prevents it from falling off during use, thus affecting internal filtration and interception. However, when applying glue to the end caps during filter production, it is not convenient to continuously apply glue to the end caps, and it is not convenient to collect the glued end caps horizontally. It is necessary to reduce the time spent manually handling the glued end caps and to ensure stable glue application for end caps of different sizes. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dispensing device for automotive filter production to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A dispensing device for automotive filter production includes a conveying assembly for continuously conveying end caps mounted on the filter.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0022] Please see Figures 1-6 This embodiment provides a technical solution: A dispensing device for producing automotive filters includes a conveying assembly for continuously conveying end caps mounted on the filter. The conveying assembly includes a conveying table 1, a motor 3 on one side of the conveying table 1, symmetrical rotating shafts 30 on the conveying table 1, and a conveyor belt 31 sleeved between the two rotating shafts 30. Furthermore, the motor 3 is fixed to the conveyor table 1 by bolts, and the output shaft of the motor 3 is fixed to the rotating shaft of one of the rotating shafts 30 by a coupling. The rotating shaft 30 is rotatably connected to the conveyor table 1 by the rotating shaft.
[0023] In this invention, the control switch on the outer wall of the motor 3 is electrically connected to an external power source via a wire. When the control switch is turned on, one of the rotating shafts 30 is started, continuously providing power.
[0024] Specifically, the upper surface of the conveyor table 1 is provided with an installation groove 10, the conveyor belt 31 is sleeved on two rotating shafts 30, and the outer wall of the rotating shaft 30 is in close contact with the inner wall of the conveyor belt 31, and the conveyor belt 31 is kept taut.
[0025] In this invention, the tooth groove on the inner wall of the conveyor belt 31 meshes with the tooth on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 30. Under the action of friction, the conveyor belt 31 remains taut, so that the conveyor belt 31 rotates with the rotating shaft 30, thereby achieving continuous and stable conveying of the limiting plate 2 on the upper surface of the conveyor belt 31.
[0026] Furthermore, the conveyor table 1 has a fixing plate 11 on both sides near the top, and the inner side of the fixing plate 11 is provided with a guide rod 110. The distance between the two guide rods 110 is adapted to the width of the outer wall of the limiting plate 2.
[0027] In this invention, the fixing plate 11 is fixed to the conveyor table 1 by bolts, and the guide rod 110 is arc-shaped. The guide rod 110 and the fixing plate 11 are integrally formed. With the cooperation of the two guide rods 110, the limiting plate 2 is kept in the middle position of the conveyor belt 31, which helps to perform end cap glue application.
[0028] It should be noted that the dispensing assembly is used to apply adhesive to the surface of the end cap that is horizontally conveyed on the conveyor table 1. The dispensing assembly is installed on the conveyor assembly and includes a support frame 4 and dispensing machines 5 symmetrically installed on the support frame 4. Specifically, the bottom of the support frame 4 is fixed to the conveyor table 1 by bolts, the dispensing machine 5 is fixed to the support frame 4 by bolts, a controller is provided on one end face of the support frame 4, and a transmitter 40 is provided in the middle of the lower surface of the support frame 4.
[0029] In this invention, the top suction hose of the dispensing machine 5 is connected to an external glue cylinder, continuously drawing the glue to be dispensed and discharging it from the dispensing port at the bottom of the dispensing machine 5. The controller is electrically connected to the transmitter 40 via a wire, and the controller is also electrically connected to the control switch on the motor 3 via a wire.
[0030] It is worth adding that the clamping and positioning component is used to limit the movement position of end caps of different sizes. The clamping and positioning component is installed on the conveying component. The clamping and positioning component includes a limiting plate 2, which has a plurality of limiting grooves 20. The limiting grooves 20 have slots 200 that spread outward from bottom to top. Furthermore, receivers 21 are provided on the upper surface of the limiting plate 2 near the two limiting grooves 20, and several notches 201 are provided in the slots 200.
[0031] In this invention, the four limiting grooves 20 work together to help limit the position of the four end caps, and each limiting groove 20 has a few slots 200, each slot 200 having a different inner diameter, which helps to limit the position of end caps of different diameters. The slots 200 also help to insert fingers to remove and replace the end caps after they have been glued.
[0032] The receiver 21 is fixed to the limiting plate 2 by bolts. The transmitter 40 emits a photoelectric signal. After receiving the photoelectric signal, the receiver 21 reflects it to the port of the transmitter 40. The controller controls the motor 3, and the motor 3 stops moving. Then, the dispensing machine 5 is started to rotate and dispense glue to the end cap of the lower limit. After one rotation of the glue dispensing is completed, the controller controls the motor 3 to start, and the conveyor belt 31 runs, so that the limiting plate 2 moves continuously. The transmitter 40 starts again and stops when it encounters the next receiver 21, so as to realize the movement and stopping of the limiting plate 2 and continuously perform end cap glue dispensing.
[0033] Secondly, the collection component is used for the centralized horizontal collection of end caps after continuous dispensing. The collection component includes a receiving platform 6, the upper surface of which is close to the conveyor belt 31.

The cross-section of the receiving plate 61 is triangular. The left end face of the receiving plate 61 is tightly attached to the conveyor belt 31.
[0035] In this invention, with the cooperation of the guide plate 61, the limiting plate 2 with four end caps that have been dispensing glue on the conveyor belt 31 is smoothly guided out, avoiding manual handling of the limiting plate 2. The limiting plate 2 is guided into the storage trough 60 for centralized collection and convenient handling.
[0036] When using the dispensing device for automotive filter production in this embodiment, firstly, the support frame 4 with the transmitter 40 and dispensing machine 5 is fixed on the conveyor table 1.
