Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to terminal production equipment, in particular to terminal glue brushing equipment. Background Art

[0002] Glue is usually required on the terminal of lead-acid battery to ensure its sealing performance after assembly. At present, most companies still apply glue on the terminal manually, and the production efficiency and degree of automation are relatively low.

[0003] The Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN216137521U is a terminal glue brushing machine developed by the applicant in the early stage, which includes a frame, the frame has a workbench, and a glue brushing mechanism is arranged on the workbench. The glue brushing mechanism includes a vertical plate, a rotating rod, a glue brushing motor, a support, a pressure plate, a flip motor, a glue injection valve and a glue brushing lifting cylinder for driving the glue injection valve to slide up and down. The end of one end of the rotating rod is detachably connected with a positioning column for inserting the terminal, and the pressure plate is rotatably connected with a pressure seat for pressing the terminal against the positioning column. The lower end of the glue injection valve is fixedly connected with a hollow brush rod, and the lower end of the hollow brush rod is fixedly connected with a brush, and the inner hole of the hollow brush rod is connected to the glue outlet hole of the glue injection valve.

[0055] The handling robot 70 includes a first slide 71 located directly above the pallet conveying device 20 and the pallet stopping device 60 and horizontally slidably connected to the frame 10, a first motor 79 for driving the first slide 71 to slide, a second slide 72 horizontally slidably connected to the first slide 71, a second motor 73 for driving the second slide 72 to slide, a third slide 74 vertically slidably connected to the second slide 72, a third motor 75 for driving the third slide 74 to slide, a rotating cylinder 78 installed on the third slide 74, and a connecting seat 76 fixedly connected to the execution end of the rotating cylinder 78, wherein the specific transmission connection structure between each motor and the corresponding slide is a conventional structure, such as realizing transmission connection through a screw slide rail assembly, a gear rack assembly or a belt drive assembly, etc., which will not be described in detail here.

[0056] The sliding direction of the first slide 71 is arranged parallel to the conveying direction of the pallet conveying device 20, and the sliding direction of the second slide 72 is arranged perpendicular to the sliding direction of the first slide 71. The rotation axis of the execution end of the rotary cylinder 78 forms a 45° angle with the horizontal plane. In this embodiment, the pallet stop device 60 is arranged gradually downward from the side facing the feeding device 30 to the side facing the receiving device 40. The connecting seat 76 has two mutually perpendicularly arranged working surfaces, and the two working surfaces form a 45° angle with the rotation axis of the execution end of the rotary cylinder 78. In this way, when the rotary cylinder 78 drives the connecting seat 76 to rotate to a state where one of the working surfaces is arranged vertically, the other working surface must be arranged horizontally. In addition, the same number of pneumatic clamps 77 arranged one by one are installed on both working surfaces, and the pneumatic clamps 77 arranged correspondingly to each other are located on the same vertical plane, and the vertical plane is arranged parallel to the pallet conveying device 20. The number of pneumatic clamps 77 on the same working surface is the same as the number of glue brushing devices 50.

[0057] Before use, the trays with the terminals to be glued are stacked and placed in the storage space of the feeding device 30 and supported by the lifting plate 35; when in use, the support plate 31 of the feeding device 30 rises under the drive of the lifting motor 32 and abuts against the tray at the bottom of the storage space of the feeding device 30, and then the lifting cylinder 36 drives the lifting plate 35 to move away from the storage space, no longer supporting the tray, and then the support plate 31 moves downward under the drive of the lifting motor 32 until the tray at the bottom is placed on the tray conveying device 20. In this process, when the tray at the bottom of the storage space of the feeding device 30 is After the pallet moves to below the plane where the lifting plate 35 is located, the lifting plate 35 is reset to hold the second pallet from the bottom to the top in the storage space to ensure that only one pallet falls on the pallet conveyor 20; the pallet placed on the pallet conveyor 20 is then conveyed to a position corresponding to the pallet stop device 60, and is lifted up by the pallet stop device 60 to separate it from the pallet conveyor 20; then the handling robot 70 is used to pick up the terminals in the pallet one by one onto the glue brushing device 50 and retrieve them after the glue brushing is completed. Specifically, the handling robot 70 rotates one of the working surfaces to a horizontal state and moves to the position located at Above the tray on the tray stop device 60, the corresponding pneumatic clamp 77 is used to pick up the terminal, and then the working surface is rotated 90 degrees so that the terminal picked up by the pneumatic clamp 77 is arranged horizontally, and then the corresponding motors are used to insert the terminal picked up by the pneumatic clamp 77 into the positioning groove of the tooling tray 53. After that, the handling robot 70 releases the terminal and picks up another batch of terminals, and the terminals inserted in the tooling tray 53 are pressed by the top pressing component 90. At the same time, the glue brush cylinder 58 drives the glue brush 59 to move to the side of the terminal, and the swing motor 56 drives the glue brush 59 to press against the terminal from the side of the terminal. On the top, the glue brushing motor 54 is used to drive the terminal to rotate and perform the glue brushing action. After the glue brushing action is completed, the top pressure assembly 90 is reset. At this time, the transport robot 70 has picked up another batch of terminals, but the corresponding work surface has not been rotated to a horizontal state. In this way, the pneumatic clamp 77 located on another work surface can be used to first take out the terminals that have completed glue brushing in the tooling tray 53, and then the connecting seat 76 is rotated to put another batch of terminals into the tooling tray 53. After that, the glue brushing device 50 enters the next glue brushing cycle. At the same time, the transport robot 70 puts back the terminals that have completed glue brushing and picks up new terminals until the glue brushing of all terminals on the tray is completed. After all the terminals on the tray have been glued, the tray stop device 60 is driven by the tray conveying device 20 to be transported to the material receiving device 40, and the support plate 31 of the material receiving device 40 is moved upward by the lifting motor 32 to push the tray to the corresponding storage space, and then the lifting cylinder 36 driven by the lifting motor 32 drives the lifting plate 35 to move toward the storage space, supporting the column tray, and finally the support plate 31 of the material receiving device 40 is reset to complete the material receiving.
