[0028] Reference Figures 1 to 3 The book block and book cover alignment and pasting device includes: a book block feeding mechanism 200, which feeds out book blocks one by one along a first direction; a conveying mechanism 100, which is used to convey book covers one by one along a second direction, and the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction; an alignment mechanism 300, which is arranged above the conveyor 121, and includes a pressing component and a first positioning component. The discharge end of the book block feeding mechanism 200 faces the second positioning component. The first positioning component is used to align the book cover and position the book block above the book cover. The pressing component is used to press the book block onto the book cover.

[0029] After the book cover is glued, it is transported to the alignment mechanism 300 through the conveying mechanism 100. The first positioning component positions the book cover, and then the book block feeding mechanism 200 sends out the book block. The book block is positioned by the second positioning component and then falls onto the book cover. The book block is then tightly attached to the book cover by the pressing component, so that the book block is attached to the book cover, reducing the deviation caused by manual pasting, while reducing labor intensity and improving production efficiency.

[0030] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2The book block feeding mechanism 200 includes a base 210, a second positioning assembly, and a pusher assembly. The second positioning assembly is mounted on the base 210 and defines a book outlet 230 that matches the book block. The pusher assembly pushes the book block out of the outlet 230. The second positioning assembly includes a second baffle 222 and two second positioning plates 221. The second baffle 222 is positioned between the two second positioning plates 221. The end surface of the base 210 is tilted so that the book blocks are stacked between the two second positioning plates 221. The second baffle 222 cooperates with the two second positioning plates 221 to form the book outlet 230. The book outlet 230 matches the book block, allowing only one book block to be ejected from the book outlet 230 at a time. The pusher assembly 250 includes a pusher and a third cylinder. The third cylinder drives the pusher to move, allowing the pusher to eject the book block from the outlet 230. The height of the pusher is less than the thickness of the book block, allowing only one book block to be ejected at a time. The base 210 is also provided with a fifth slide module and a hand screw 260. The position of the push block assembly is adjusted by cooperating with the hand screw 260 and the fifth slide module, which facilitates adjustment of the push block position according to the size of the book block and improves applicability.

[0031] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The book block loading mechanism 200 also includes a conveyor roller assembly, which includes a conveyor roller set 241 and a first adjustment assembly 242. The conveyor roller set 241 includes two conveyor rollers 241 arranged in a vertical direction. The first adjustment assembly 242 is used to adjust the distance between the two conveyor rollers 241. As the conveyor rollers 241 rotate, the book block is delivered from the book outlet 230 to the first positioning assembly by the conveyor rollers 241, improving conveying efficiency and stability while preventing damage to the book block during transport. Furthermore, the first adjustment assembly 242 adjusts the distance between the two conveyor rollers 241 to accommodate book blocks of varying thicknesses.

[0032] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 1 The conveying mechanism 100 includes a conveyor 121, a first drive assembly, and a first suction cup assembly 110. The conveyor 121 is provided with two limit modules 122. The first suction cup assembly 110 is positioned between the two limit modules 122. The first drive assembly drives the first suction cup assembly 110 to convey in the second direction. The first suction cup assembly 110 includes a first suction cup and a fourth cylinder. The fourth cylinder drives the first suction cup upward, allowing it to absorb the book cover. The limit modules on both sides of the first suction cup prevent the book cover from falling out. The conveyor frame supports the book cover.

[0033] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 1The first driving assembly includes a first power module, a first slide module 130 and a second slide module 140. The first slide module 130 is arranged along the first direction, and the second slide module 140 is arranged along the second direction. The first suction cup assembly 110 is arranged on the movable end of the first slide module 130, the fixed end of the second slide module 140 is connected to the limit module 122, and the movable end of the second slide module 140 is connected to the first suction cup assembly 110. The first power module can be a synchronous wheel and synchronous belt drive, or it can be an electric linear slide module. Through the cooperation of the first slide module 130 and the second slide module 140, the first suction cup assembly 110 can move in the second direction and adjust the distance between the two limit modules 122 along the first direction, so as to adapt to book covers of different sizes and improve production adaptability.

[0034] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The first positioning assembly includes a second power module and a first positioning plate 310. The first positioning plate 310 faces the discharge end of the book block loading mechanism 200. The second power module drives the first positioning plate 310 to move vertically. A first baffle 370 is provided on the lower side of the first positioning plate 310. Two first guide plates 320 are provided vertically on the side of the first positioning plate 310 facing the book block loading mechanism 200. The two first guide plates 320 cooperate to form a guide channel. The first baffle 370 abuts the conveying mechanism 100, and the first suction cup drives the book case to move, causing the book case to abut against the first baffle 370, aligning the book case and achieving positioning. Then, after the book block is fed out from the book block feeding mechanism 200, the book block abuts against the first positioning plate 310 and is aligned by the first positioning plate 310. Then, the book block falls along the guide channel to above the book case. The two first guide plates 320 guide the book block to align with the book case, so that the book block falls accurately to the corresponding position of the book case, realizing automatic alignment of the book block and the book case and improving production efficiency.

[0035] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3The second power module includes a first cylinder 351, a second guide plate 352, and a transmission plate 353. The second guide plate 352 defines a guide slot 354, and the transmission plate 353 is provided with a pulley 355 that matches the guide slot 354. When the first cylinder 351 drives the second guide plate 352, the transmission plate 353 moves upward along the guide slot 354. The first positioning plate 310 is disposed on the transmission plate 353. The guide slot 354 is tilted upward. After the book block is bonded to the book case, the first cylinder 351 drives the second guide plate 352 horizontally, causing the pulley 355 to move along the guide slot 354. The transmission plate 353 gradually raises the first positioning plate 310, raising the first baffle 370 to allow the book case to pass. After the book case passes, the first cylinder 351 returns to its original position, causing the first positioning plate 310 to return to its original position, and the first baffle 370 to fall back onto the conveying mechanism 100.

[0036] It is understood that the pressing assembly includes a support plate assembly and a second suction cup assembly. The support plate assembly is located at the lower end of the guide channel and supports the book block. The second suction cup assembly is located at the upper end of the guide channel and affixes the book block to the book cover. After the book block descends along the guide channel, the support plate assembly supports the book block. The support plate assembly is then withdrawn, and the second suction cup assembly then drives the book block to press against the book cover, firmly bonding the book block to the book cover and improving quality.

[0037] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The pallet assembly includes a pallet 331, a second cylinder, and a third slide module 332. The second cylinder drives the pallet 331 horizontally through the third slide module 332, causing the pallet 331 to extend to the lower end of the guide channel. The second cylinder drives the pallet 331 horizontally, protruding from the first positioning plate 310. The pallet 331 supports the book block. The second cylinder then resets, retracting the pallet 331, allowing the book block to slide along the guide channel. This prevents the book block from falling too quickly and splashing the glue on the book cover, thereby improving the bonding quality.

[0038] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 3 The second suction cup assembly includes a second suction cup 341 and a fourth slide module 342. The fourth slide module 342 drives the suction cup in a vertical direction. The fourth slide module 342 can be an electric slide module or a functional slide module to achieve reciprocating motion of the second suction cup 341 in the vertical direction, thereby improving the straightness of the second suction cup 341.

[0039] In addition, it is also understandable that, with reference to Figure 3The alignment mechanism 300 is also provided with a second adjustment component 242, the second adjustment component 242 includes a sixth slide module 360, the sixth slide module 360 ​​includes two movable ends, the alignment mechanism 300 is arranged on one of the movable ends, and the book block feeding mechanism 200 is arranged on the other movable end. The distance between the alignment mechanism 300 and the book block feeding mechanism 200 is adjusted by the sixth slide module 360, which is convenient for adjusting the distance according to the actual size of the book block and book cover, thereby improving production adaptability.

[0040] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
