[0002] A paint filling machine is a mechanical device used to fill liquid or semi-solid materials such as paint. Most of the paint filling machines in the prior art require manual movement of the paint tray to cooperate with the filling machine for filling. In this process, not only do workers need to stay by the machine at all times, but it is also difficult to accurately control the moving distance of the paint tray when the paint tray is moved manually. Once an error occurs in the moving distance of the paint tray, it is easy to cause the paint to be unable to be accurately filled into the paint tray, resulting in paint leakage. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the defect of the prior art that the pigment leaks out due to the error in the moving distance of the pigment tray, thereby providing a pigment filling machine that can automatically control the moving distance of the pigment tray.

[0004] To this end, the utility model provides a paint filling machine, a filling body and a filling base arranged above the filling body, a plurality of paint boxes can be placed on the filling base, and also includes a filling head for filling paint into the paint box, the filling head is connected to a driver for driving the filling head to move along the X, Y and Z axes, the driver includes a first driving mechanism for driving the filling head to move along the Z axis, a second driving mechanism for driving the filling head to move along the X axis and a third driving mechanism for driving the filling head to move along the Y axis.

[0005] Further: the first driving mechanism includes a positioning plate and a movable plate capable of moving up and down along the positioning plate, the filling head is arranged below the movable plate, and a first stepper motor for driving the movable plate to move is arranged on the positioning plate.

[0006] Further: the second driving mechanism is provided with a sliding plate for driving the positioning plate to move, a sliding mechanism is provided between the sliding plate and the positioning plate for slidingly connecting the two, and the sliding plate is provided with a second stepping motor for driving the positioning plate to move along the extension direction of the sliding plate.

[0007] Further: the third driving mechanism includes auxiliary plates fixed on both sides of the sliding plate, the auxiliary plates on both sides and the sliding plate are arranged to form a "["-shaped structure, a connecting rod for connecting the two is arranged between the auxiliary plates, the connecting rod is linked to the third stepping motor, and a strip groove for the connecting rod to pass through and move is arranged on the filling body.

[0008] Further: the sliding mechanism includes an extension plate arranged on one side of the positioning plate and a moving groove arranged on the sliding plate, and the extension plate is provided with a sliding plate slidably connected to the moving groove.

[0009] Furthermore: a transmission mechanism is arranged between the connecting rod and the third stepping motor, and the transmission mechanism includes a nut fixedly connected to the connecting plate and a screw rod linked to the third stepping motor.

[0010] Furthermore: a quantitative valve is arranged above the filling head, and the quantitative valve is connected to the double pressure regulating valve by a pipeline.

[0011] The technical solution of the utility model has the following advantages:

[0012] 1. The utility model provides a pigment filling machine, a pigment tray is arranged on the filling base, and there are multiple rows of evenly distributed square pigment boxes in the pigment tray. In this embodiment, three drivers are arranged to drive the filling head to move in the X, Y and Z axes respectively. During the filling process, the second driving mechanism first drives the filling head to move to the initial position set by the program, and then the first driving mechanism drives the filling head to move up and down (that is, the filling head moves along the Z axis). When the filling head moves to the lowest position, the filling head starts to spray pigment into the pigment box. When the pigment boxes in a row are all filled, the program drives the third driving mechanism to start working, and the third driving mechanism drives the filling head along the Y axis. The axis moves, so that the filling head moves to an adjacent row of positions. At this time, the movement trajectory of the first drive mechanism and the second drive mechanism is repeated. First, the second drive mechanism drives the filling head to move to the initial position set by the program, and then the first drive mechanism drives the filling head to move up and down (that is, the filling head moves along the Z-axis direction), and so on. This is better than the existing technology. After a row of paint boxes is filled, the third drive mechanism can automatically drive the filling base to move, thereby driving the paint box to move. The existing technology will not appear because the paint box is moved manually and the moving position of the paint box cannot be accurately determined, resulting in the paint being poured to the outside of the paint box during the filling process.

[0013] 2. The utility model provides a paint filling machine. When the first driving mechanism moves, the first stepper motor starts to drive the movable plate to reciprocate up and down along the height of the positioning plate. When the movable plate moves to the lowest position, the filling head starts to fill the paint box with paint. For example, it takes 0.5 seconds to fill a paint box. After 0.5 seconds, the filling head stops filling. Then the first stepper motor moves in the opposite direction, driving the movable rod to move upward along the positioning plate. Then the second driving mechanism drives the positioning plate and the movable plate to move along the X-axis. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] Example

[0028] The present embodiment provides a paint filling machine, including a filling body 1 and a filling base 2 arranged above the filling body 1, wherein a plurality of paint boxes can be placed on the filling base 2, and further comprising a filling head 3 for filling paint into the paint box, wherein the filling head 3 is connected to a driver for driving the filling head 3 to move along the X, Y and Z axes, wherein the driver comprises a first driving mechanism 4 for driving the filling head 3 to move along the Z axis, a second driving mechanism 5 for driving the filling head 3 to move along the X axis and a third driving mechanism 6 for driving the filling head 3 to move along the Y axis.

[0029] The above specific improvements are: Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, compared with the prior art, a pigment tray is provided on the filling base 2, and there are multiple rows of evenly distributed square pigment boxes in the pigment tray. In this embodiment, three drivers are provided to drive the filling head 3 to move in the X, Y and Z axes respectively. During the filling process, the second driving mechanism 5 is first used to drive the filling head 3 to move to the initial position set by the program, and then the first driving mechanism 4 drives the filling head 3 to move up and down (that is, the filling head 3 moves along the Z axis). When the filling head 3 moves to the lowest position, the filling head 3 starts to spray pigment into the pigment box. When the pigment boxes in a row are all filled, the program drives the third driving mechanism 6 to start working, and the third driving mechanism 6 drives the filling head 3 to move along the Y axis. The filling head 3 moves to an adjacent row of positions, and the movement trajectories of the first driving mechanism 4 and the second driving mechanism 5 are repeated. The filling head 3 is first driven by the second driving mechanism 5 to move to the initial position set by the program, and then the first driving mechanism 4 drives the filling head 3 to move up and down (that is, the filling head 3 moves along the Z-axis direction), and so on. This is better than the prior art. After a row of paint boxes is filled, the third driving mechanism 6 can automatically drive the filling base 2 to move, thereby driving the paint box to move. The problem in the prior art that the paint box cannot be accurately moved due to manual movement of the paint box will not occur, resulting in the paint being poured outside the paint box during the filling process.

[0030] On the basis of the above embodiment: the first driving mechanism 4 includes a positioning plate 41 and a movable plate 42 that can move up and down along the positioning plate 41, the filling head 3 is arranged under the movable plate 42, and the positioning plate 41 is provided with a first stepper motor 43 for driving the movable plate 42 to move.

[0031] The above specific improvements are: Figure 3 As shown, when the first driving mechanism 4 moves, the first stepper motor 43 starts to drive the moving plate 42 to reciprocate up and down along the height of the positioning plate 41. When the moving plate 42 moves to the lowest position, the filling head 3 starts to fill the paint box with paint. For example, it takes 0.5 seconds to fill a paint box. After 0.5 seconds, the filling head 3 stops filling, and then the first stepper motor 43 moves in the opposite direction, driving the moving rod to move upward along the positioning plate 41, and then the second driving mechanism 5 drives the positioning plate 41 and the moving plate 42 to move along the X-axis.

[0032] On the basis of the above embodiment: the second driving mechanism 5 is provided with a sliding plate 51 for driving the positioning plate 41 to move, a sliding mechanism 7 is provided between the sliding plate 51 and the positioning plate 41 for slidingly connecting the two, and the sliding plate 51 is provided with a second stepping motor 52 for driving the positioning plate 41 to move along the extension direction of the sliding plate 51.

[0033] The above specific improvements are: Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the second driving mechanism 5 includes a sliding plate 51 and a second stepper motor 52 for driving the positioning plate 41 to move along the sliding plate 51. After the first stepper motor 43 drives the moving plate 42 to move up and down along the positioning plate 41, the second stepper motor 52 drives the positioning plate 41 to move one position along the setting direction of the sliding plate 51 (one position is the distance the positioning plate 41 is moved when the stepper motor rotates once), and then the moving plate 42 continues to move up and down along the positioning plate 41, and so on. When the second driving mechanism 5 drives the positioning plate 41 to move from the starting point of the sliding plate 51 to the end point of the sliding plate 51, the third driving mechanism 6 starts to work and drives the sliding plate 51 to move along the Y axis. Since the positioning plate 41, the moving plate 42 and the filling head 3 are all installed on the sliding plate 51, when the sliding plate 51 moves, it can drive the positioning plate 41, the moving plate 42 and the filling head 3 to move together.

[0034] On the basis of the above embodiment: the third driving mechanism 6 includes auxiliary plates 61 fixed on both sides of the sliding plate 51, the auxiliary plates 61 on both sides and the sliding plate 51 are arranged to form a "["-shaped structure, a connecting rod 62 for connecting the two is arranged between the auxiliary plates 61, the connecting rod 62 is linked with the third stepping motor 63, and a strip groove 64 for the connecting rod 62 to pass through and move is arranged on the filling body 1.

[0035] The above specific improvements are: Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, after the second driving mechanism 5 drives the positioning plate 41 to move from the starting point of the sliding plate 51 to the end point of the sliding plate 51, the third driving mechanism 6 starts to work. During operation, the third stepper motor 63 starts to move, thereby driving the connecting rod 62 to move along the Y-axis direction. In order to assist the sliding plate 51 to move along the Y-axis direction, a strip groove 64 (the strip groove 64 is arranged along the Y-axis direction) is arranged on the filling body 1 to avoid the connecting rod 62. When the connecting rod 62 moves, the connecting rod 62 moves along the opening direction of the strip groove 64.

[0036] On the basis of the above embodiment: the sliding mechanism 7 includes an extension plate 71 arranged on one side of the positioning plate 41 and a moving groove 72 arranged on the sliding plate 51 , and a sliding plate 73 slidably connected to the moving groove 72 is arranged on the extension plate 71 .

[0037] The above specific improvements are: Figure 6As shown, one end of the extension plate 71 is connected to the positioning plate 41, and the other end is connected to the slide plate 73. The slide plate 73 is connected to the moving groove 72. The second stepper motor 52 is connected to a moving part. When the second stepper motor 52 rotates, it can drive the moving part to move, thereby driving the extension plate 71 and the slide plate 73 to move along the setting direction of the moving groove 72 (the structure of the second stepper motor 52 driving the moving part to move is a prior art, which can be easily implemented by technicians in the field and will not be described in detail here).

[0038] On the basis of the above embodiment: a transmission mechanism 8 is arranged between the connecting rod 62 and the third stepping motor 63 , and the transmission mechanism 8 includes a nut 81 connected and fixed to the connecting plate and a screw rod 82 linked to the third stepping motor 63 .

[0039] The above specific improvements are: Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a transmission mechanism 8 is arranged between the connecting rod 62 and the third stepper motor 63, and the transmission mechanism 8 includes a screw rod 82 and a nut 81 matched with the screw rod 82. When the third stepper motor 63 is started, its motor shaft will drive the screw rod 82 to rotate. Due to the transmission connection between the screw rod 82 and the nut 81, the screw rod 82 will drive the nut 81 to move linearly, and the nut 81 drives the connection to move linearly, thereby moving the connecting rod 62 along the Y-axis direction.

[0040] On the basis of the above embodiment: a quantitative valve 9 is arranged above the filling head 3, and the quantitative valve 9 is connected to the double pressure regulating valve 91 by a pipeline.

[0041] The above specific improvement is: through the setting of the metering valve 9, the amount of pigment sprayed outward from the filling head 3 can be accurately controlled, so that the amount of pigment sprayed outward from the filling head 3 at one time can just fill the pigment tank.

[0042] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of the invention of the utility model.
