Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of air conditioner production and assembly equipment, and particularly to a glue film tearing device for sponge components. Background Art

[0002] Sponges are usually installed on the outer casing of an air conditioner. The sponges can absorb the vibration and noise generated during the operation of the air conditioner, so as to reduce the impact on the external environment, make the air conditioner operate more quietly. At the same time, the sponges can protect the components inside the air conditioner and extend the service life. The commonly used sponges are sponges with an adhesive layer on the back, and the surface of the adhesive layer is covered with a glue film. Before attaching the sponge to the outer casing of the air conditioner, it is necessary to tear off the glue film on the back of the sponge to expose the adhesive layer, and then attach the sponge to the outer casing of the air conditioner.

[0003] In the prior art, the traditional operation of tearing the glue film of the sponge and attaching the sponge to the outer casing of the air conditioner is manual. Usually, the outer casing of the air conditioner is placed on a working platform. After the sponge is divided and the glue film is torn off, the sponge is then pasted. Therefore, the overall production efficiency is low and the production capacity is low. At the same time, the speed of manually tearing the glue film and pasting the sponge needs to keep up with the speed of the assembly line conveyor belt to ensure normal production. Since the sponge needs to be separated and the glue film needs to be torn off, usually multiple people are required to operate simultaneously. The operators not only have a high labor intensity, but also result in high labor costs, and may also cause pollution of the glue film, resulting in poor pasting effects. Utility Model Content

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, rather than all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of this application. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in this application and the features in the embodiments can be combined arbitrarily with each other.

[0027] Sponges are usually installed on the outer casing of an air conditioner. The sponges can absorb the vibration and noise generated during the operation of the air conditioner to reduce the impact on the external environment, making the air conditioner operate more quietly. At the same time, they protect the components inside the air conditioner and extend its service life. The commonly used sponge is a sponge with an adhesive layer on the back, and the surface of the adhesive layer is covered with an adhesive film. Before attaching the sponge to the outer casing of the air conditioner, the adhesive film on the back of the sponge needs to be torn off to expose the adhesive layer, and then the sponge is attached to the outer casing of the air conditioner.

[0028] In the prior art, the traditional operation of tearing the adhesive film of the sponge and attaching the sponge to the outer casing of the air conditioner is manual. Usually, the outer casing of the air conditioner is placed on a working platform. After the sponge is separated and the adhesive film is torn off, the sponge is pasted. Therefore, the overall production efficiency is low and the production capacity is low. At the same time, the speed of manually tearing the adhesive film and pasting the sponge needs to keep up with the speed of the assembly line conveyor belt to ensure normal production. Since the sponge needs to be separated and the adhesive film needs to be torn off, usually multiple people need to be arranged to operate simultaneously. The operators not only have a high labor intensity, but also result in high labor costs. It may also cause pollution of the adhesive film, resulting in poor pasting effect.

[0029] Based on this, an exemplary embodiment of this application provides a device for tearing the adhesive film of a sponge assembly. The device includes a feeding device and an adhesive film tearing device. The feeding device includes a first module and a feeding lifting assembly. The adhesive film tearing device includes a second module, a clamping jaw mechanism arranged on the second module, and a positioning assembly. The feeding lifting assembly can reciprocate on the first module. The feeding lifting assembly can adsorb the sponge assembly and drive the sponge assembly to move in the vertical direction. In this way, after the feeding lifting assembly adsorbs the sponge assembly at the feeding position, it can transfer the sponge assembly to the positioning assembly under the drive of the first module. The positioning assembly positions the sponge assembly, and the feeding lifting assembly adsorbs and fixes the sponge assembly again. The clamping jaw mechanism clamps the adhesive film of the sponge assembly and tears off the adhesive film from the sponge assembly under the drive of the second module, realizing fully automatic adhesive film tearing, which not only improves the efficiency of adhesive film tearing, but also saves labor costs without manual operation.

[0030] An exemplary embodiment of this application provides a device for tearing the adhesive film of a sponge assembly, such as Figure 1As shown in the figure, the glue film tearing device for the sponge assembly includes a feeding device 10 and a glue film tearing device 20. The glue film tearing device 20 is arranged below the feeding device 10. The feeding device 10 includes a first module 101 and a feeding lifting assembly 102 arranged on the first module 101. The glue film tearing device 20 includes a second module 201, a clamping jaw mechanism 202 arranged on the second module 201, and a positioning assembly 203 arranged on one side of the clamping jaw mechanism 202. The feeding lifting assembly 102 can adsorb the sponge assembly and drive the sponge assembly to move in the vertical direction. Thus, after the feeding lifting assembly 102 adsorbs the sponge assembly at the feeding position, it can transfer the sponge assembly to the positioning assembly 203 under the drive of the first module 101 to position the sponge assembly. The clamping jaw mechanism 202 is used to clamp the glue film of the sponge assembly and cooperate with the feeding device 10 to tear the glue film from the sponge assembly. Thus, automatic glue film tearing is realized, which not only improves the efficiency of glue film tearing, but also saves labor costs without manual operation; it avoids the glue layer pollution caused by manual glue film tearing.

[0031] As Figure 2 shown, a material frame assembly 103 is arranged below the feeding lifting assembly 102. The material frame assembly 103 contains sponge assemblies without torn glue films. The first module 101 drives the feeding lifting assembly 102 to reciprocate along the first module 101 to transfer the sponge assemblies in the material frame assembly 103 to the positioning assembly 203 of the glue film tearing device 20.

[0032] In one embodiment, the material frame assembly 103 is arranged on a frame with a preset height. A slide rail assembly is arranged above the frame. A material frame is arranged on the slide rail assembly. The sponge assemblies are placed in the material frame. The glue films of the sponge assemblies in the material frame are located below the sponges. A material detection switch is arranged on the frame. A detection through hole is arranged on the bottom plate of the material frame. The detection end of the material detection switch is aligned with the detection through hole to detect whether there are sponge assemblies in the material frame. The material frame can slide along the slide rail assembly. A handle is arranged at one end of the material frame. When the material detection switch detects that there are no sponge assemblies in the material frame, the handle can be pulled to move the material frame to one end of the frame, which is convenient for filling the material frame with sponge assemblies.

[0033] Continue to refer to Figure 2, the loading lifting assembly 102 includes a first bracket 1021 disposed on the first module 101. A loading lifting drive unit 1022 is disposed on the first bracket 1021. Preferably, the loading lifting drive unit 1022 is an electric cylinder. A suction cup mounting plate 1023 is disposed on the extending end of the loading lifting drive unit 1022. A vacuum generator is mounted on the top of the suction cup mounting plate 1023. A plurality of loading suction cups 1024 are disposed below the suction cup mounting plate 1023. The vacuum generator is in communication with the loading suction cups 1024. A guide plate is further disposed on the extending end of the loading lifting drive unit 1022. A guide sleeve is disposed on the guide plate. A guide rod is slidably disposed in the guide sleeve. The bottom end of the guide rod is fixedly connected to the suction cup mounting plate 1023. The guide plate, the guide sleeve and the guide rod cooperate with each other to guide the movement of the loading lifting drive unit 1022.

[0034] In one embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, the loading lifting assembly 102 further includes a component for detecting the presence of material. The component for detecting the presence of material includes a sensor, a mounting seat and an elastic lifting assembly. The sensor is disposed on the suction cup mounting plate 1023. The mounting seat penetrates through the suction cup mounting plate 1023 and is disposed on one side of the sensor. The elastic lifting assembly is movably disposed in the mounting seat. The elastic lifting assembly includes a lifting shaft movably disposed in the mounting seat. A top head is disposed at the bottom end of the lifting shaft. An elastic element is sleeved on the lifting shaft. Preferably, the elastic element is a spring. The top end of the elastic element abuts against the mounting seat, and the bottom end abuts against the top head.

[0035] The elastic lifting assembly can lift and lower in the mounting seat. The loading lifting drive unit 1022 can drive the loading suction cups 1024 to move in the vertical direction. When it is necessary to adsorb the sponge assembly, the loading lifting drive unit 1022 drives the loading suction cups 1024 to move downward. When the loading lifting drive unit 1022 drives the loading suction cups 1024 to descend above the sponge assembly, the sponge assembly first contacts the top head of the elastic lifting assembly. When the loading suction cups 1024 further descend, the lifting shaft further moves upward and compresses the elastic assembly. When the top of the lifting shaft rises to a preset height, the sensor can detect the top of the lifting shaft. At this time, the sensor emits a signal indicating the presence of material, and the control system drives the loading suction cups 1024 to adsorb the sponge assembly.

[0036] After the loading suction cups 1024 adsorb the sponge assembly, the loading lifting drive unit 1022 drives the loading suction cups 1024 to drive the adsorbed sponge assembly to move upward. Then, the first module 101 drives the loading lifting assembly 102 to drive the sponge assembly to move along the first module 101 to the positioning assembly 203 of the glue film tearing device 20.

[0037] As Figure 4As shown, the glue film tearing device 20 includes a second module 201, and the extending direction of the second module 201 is perpendicular to that of the first module 101; the glue film tearing device 20 further includes a positioning component 203 for positioning the sponge component of the glue film to be torn. The positioning component 203 includes a positioning plate 2031, with a limiting plate 2032 provided on one side edge of the positioning plate 2031, and a pushing plate component 2033 provided on the other side edge. The pushing plate component 2033 includes a cylinder provided below the positioning plate 2031 and a pushing plate provided at the extending end of the cylinder. The cylinder drives the pushing plate to push the side edge of the sponge component close to the limiting plate 2032 to achieve the positioning of the sponge component.

[0038] A jaw mechanism 202 is provided on the second module 201, and the second module 201 drives the jaw mechanism 202 to reciprocate along the second module 201. As Figure 5 shown, the jaw mechanism 202 includes a second bracket 2021 provided on the second module 201, a third module 2022 is provided on the second bracket 2021 and extends in the vertical direction. Is a jaw component 2023 provided on the third module 2022? The third module 2022 can drive the jaw component 2023 to lift and lower in the vertical direction. The jaw component 2023 includes a jaw driving unit 2023a and a pair of jaws 2023b provided at the extending end of the jaw driving unit 2023a. Preferably, the jaw driving unit 2023a is a jaw 2023b cylinder, and the jaw driving unit 2023a can drive the opening and closing of the jaws 2023b to achieve the clamping and releasing of the glue film.

[0039] After the sponge component is positioned on the positioning component 203, the loading suction cup 1024 adsorbs the sponge component again. At this time, the jaw component 2023 clamps the glue film at the bottom of the sponge component. Since the thickness of the glue film is relatively thin, in the normal state, the corner edges of the glue film will curl up, which is not convenient for the jaw component 2023 to clamp. In order to facilitate the jaw component 2023 to clamp the glue film, at the end of the positioning plate 2031 close to the first module 101, the positioning plate 2031 is provided in a convex shape, as Figure 6 shown. When the loading suction cup 1024 abuts above the sponge component, the loading suction cup 1024 can press the corners of the sponge component, thereby pressing the warped glue film flat and facilitating the jaws 2023b to clamp the glue film.

[0040] After the loading suction cup 1024 adsorbs the sponge assembly, the loading suction cup 1024 drives the sponge assembly to lift upward, so that a certain distance is maintained between the sponge assembly and the positioning assembly 203. The clamping jaw assembly 2023 rises together with the sponge assembly. Then, the clamping jaw assembly 2023 moves along the second module 201 towards the end far from the first module 101, tears off the glue film on the sponge assembly, and throws the torn glue film into the collection basket 204 arranged below one end of the variable pitch device. After that, the loading device 10 transfers the sponge assembly after the glue film is torn to the next process. The clamping jaw mechanism 202 returns to the initial position along the second module 201 to tear the glue film of the next sponge assembly.
