To better illustrate the following embodiments, some components in the drawings are omitted, enlarged or reduced, which do not represent the dimensions of the actual product; for those skilled in the art, it is understandable that some well-known structures and their descriptions in the drawings may be omitted.

[0039] Embodiment 1

[0040] As Figure 1 shown, an album casing device includes:

[0041] A photo album core placement mechanism 200 for placing a photo album core and cooperating with the side gauge mechanism 300 and the photo album cover tray 500 mechanism;

[0042] A side gauge mechanism 300 is provided on one side of the photo album core placement mechanism 200 and is used for laterally positioning the left and right sides of the photo album core and for a 90-degree direction conversion during feeding;

[0043] A front gauge mechanism 400 is provided on the side of the side gauge mechanism 300 away from the photo album core placement mechanism 200 and is used for longitudinally positioning the front and back sides of the photo album core;

[0044] A double-sided coating mechanism 100 is provided between the side gauge mechanism 300 and the front gauge mechanism 400 and is used for double-sided glue coating of the photo album core;

[0045] An album cover tray 500, which is used to place the album cover, is arranged below the album core placing mechanism 200 and is used to receive the album core that has been positioned by the front gauge mechanism 400, double-sided coated with glue, and positioned by the side gauge mechanism 300;

[0046] A positioning sensor, which is used to position the position of the album core;

[0047] A driving component, which is used in cooperation with the positioning sensor and is used to drive the movement of the album cover tray 500 or the album core placing mechanism 200; the album core placing mechanism is also used to release the album core when the album core is vertically aligned with the album cover, so that the bottom surface of the album core is adhered to the corresponding position of the album cover.

[0048] The album casing device of this embodiment controls the accuracy of double-sided gluing of the horizontally moving album core and the gluing accuracy through an automated device, avoiding the glue edge overflow and uneven gluing caused by manual spraying and gluing during the album production process, not only improving the product qualification rate, but also taking into account low production cost, high production efficiency and simple maintenance. Specifically, when the album casing device of this embodiment is in use, the album core is placed on the album core placing mechanism 200, and the album cover is placed on the album cover tray 500; the album core placing mechanism 200 conveys the album core to the side gauge mechanism 300, and after passing through the side gauge mechanism 300 and the double-sided coating mechanism 100, it enters the front gauge mechanism 400. The front gauge mechanism 400 performs front gauge alignment on the album core, that is, longitudinally positions the album core; the aligned album core returns along the original path to the double-sided coating mechanism 100 to automatically perform double-sided gluing; the album core after double-sided gluing enters the side gauge mechanism 300 for side gauge alignment; the album core after side gauge alignment returns to the album core placing mechanism 200; after the positioning sensor senses the position of the album core, it calculates the moving distance of the album cover tray 500 or the album core placing mechanism 200 to make the album core centered front and back with the album cover; the album core placing mechanism 200 releases the album core, so that the album core vertically drops onto the album cover, and the bottom surface of the album core is adhered to the corresponding position of the album cover; the album cover tray 500 or the album core placing mechanism 200 moves, leaving a space for flipping the album cover above the album cover tray 500; the unglued cover on the album cover is flipped 180 degrees along the guide piece and then adhered to the top surface of the album core.

[0049] Such as Figures 1-3As shown in the figure, the photo album core placement mechanism 200 in this embodiment includes a photo album core conveying wheel set 210 for conveying the photo album core, a first driving member 220 for providing driving force for the conveying of the photo album core conveying wheel set 210, a first moving-out assembly 230 for moving out the photo album core conveying wheel set 210 to loosen the photo album core, a hook 240 for receiving the photo album core that falls from the photo album core conveying wheel set 210, a first lifting assembly 250 for driving the hook 240 to lift and lower, and a second moving-out assembly 260 for driving the hook 240 to move outward to make the photo album core fall onto the photo album cover tray 500. In this embodiment, the first driving member 220 drives the photo album core conveying wheel set 210 to convey, and conveys the photo album core to the side gauge mechanism 300 to complete the alignment and laminating of the photo album core; when the photo album core returns, it receives the photo album core conveyed by the side gauge mechanism 300 and moves the photo album core above the photo album cover tray 500; when the positioning of the photo album core or the positioning of the photo album cover is completed, the first moving-out assembly 230 acts to move out the photo album core conveying wheel set 210, that is, the photo album core conveying wheel set 210 does not contact the photo album core, and after the photo album core loses the supporting force of the photo album core conveying wheel set 210, it falls into the hook 240 and is supported by the hook 240. The first lifting assembly 250 drives the hook 240 to descend, shortening the distance between the photo album core and the photo album cover, and avoiding problems such as low falling accuracy and unstable adhesion caused by too large a falling distance. When the photo album core is about to contact the photo album cover, the second moving-out assembly 260 drives the hook 240 to move outward, and after the photo album core loses the supporting force of the hook 240, it falls onto the photo album cover to complete the adhesion between the bottom of the photo album core and the photo album cover.

[0050] Specifically, there are two groups of the photo album core conveying wheel sets 210 in this embodiment, and the two groups of photo album core conveying wheel sets 210 are respectively arranged on both sides of the photo album core, which is convenient for the photo album core conveying wheel set 210 to move outward and withdraw to both sides; similarly, there are two groups of the hooks 240 in this embodiment, and the two groups of hooks 240 are respectively arranged corresponding to the two groups of photo album core conveying wheel sets 210, which is convenient for moving outward and withdrawing to both sides.

[0051] In this embodiment, the photo album core conveying wheel set 210 uses a synchronous belt and a synchronous pulley in cooperation, so that each photo album core conveying wheel in the photo album core conveying wheel set 210 can be synchronously driven.

[0052] As Figure 4 shown in the figure, the side gauge mechanism 300 in this embodiment includes a side gauge conveying wheel set 310 for conveying the photo album core, a side gauge plate 320 arranged on one side of the side gauge conveying wheel set 310 and used for horizontally positioning the photo album core, and a lateral displacement member 330 for making the photo album core perform lateral displacement to facilitate side gauge positioning. Through the side gauge conveying wheel set 310, the photo album core can be conveyed to the next working station. At the same time, the side gauge conveying wheel set 310, the lateral displacement member 330 and the side gauge plate cooperate with each other, so that the side gauge positioning of the photo album core can be completed during the conveying process. Here, the side gauge positioning refers to the horizontal positioning of the left and right sides of the photo album core, and the lateral displacement of the lateral displacement member 330 is in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal displacement of the side gauge conveying wheel set 310.

[0053] The side guide conveying wheel set 310 described in this embodiment includes multiple rows of conveying wheels for longitudinally conveying the photo album cores. The lateral displacement member 330 is a conveyor belt inserted between adjacent rows of conveying wheels, and the conveying direction of the conveyor belt is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying wheels. The conveyor belt described in this embodiment is a liftable conveyor belt, which is convenient for a 90-degree turn of the running direction of the photo album core.

[0054] Specifically, the photo album casing device of this embodiment has an overall L-shaped layout, that is, the side guide mechanism 300 is at the corner position of the L shape. The side guide mechanism 300 is not only used for side guide alignment of the photo album core, but also for a 90-degree turn during feeding. During feeding, the photo album core and the photo album cover are respectively placed on the photo album core placing mechanism 200 and the photo album cover tray 500 along the photo album opening direction. After the photo album core enters the side guide mechanism 300, the conveyor belt rises, driving the photo album core to laterally enter the double-sided coating mechanism 100 and the front guide mechanism 400, and then return to the double-sided coating mechanism 100 along the original path. At this time, the spine position of the photo album core, that is, the connection when the photo album is opened, is in the front. After double-sided gluing, it is sent to the side guide plate 320 for alignment, and then retracted to the position sensor for positioning. The conveyor belt descends, and the side guide conveying wheel set 310 drives the photo album core to the photo album core placing mechanism 200.

[0055] As Figure 5 shown, the front guide mechanism 400 described in this embodiment includes a front guide conveying wheel set 410 for transporting the photo album core, and a front guide plate 420 provided on the side of the front guide conveying wheel set 410 away from the double-sided coating mechanism 100 and used for longitudinally positioning the photo album core. Similar to the side guide conveying wheel set 310, the front guide conveying wheel set 410 can convey the photo album core to the front guide plate for front guide positioning, that is, front and rear longitudinal positioning, and can also convey the photo album core back to the double-sided coating mechanism 100 in the reverse direction. The front guide conveying wheel set 410 of this embodiment includes multiple rows of conveying wheels for longitudinally conveying the photo album core.

[0056] In this embodiment, the side guide conveying wheel set 310 and the front guide conveying wheel set 410 also cooperate with synchronous belts and synchronous pulleys, so that each row of conveying wheels can be synchronously driven.

[0057] As Figures 6-9 shown, the double-sided coating mechanism 100 described in this embodiment includes: a first coating component 10 for supporting and conveying the photo album core and coating the first side of the photo album core, a second coating component 20 provided above the first coating component 10 and used for coating the second side of the photo album core, a photoelectric sensor (not shown in the figure) for sensing the photo album core, and a second lifting component 30 for driving the second coating component 20 to lift; wherein, the second side of the photo album core is the side opposite to the first side of the photo album core.

[0058] The double-sided coating mechanism of this embodiment can use hot melt adhesive to coat both sides of the photo album core. It not only has fast shaping and drying, high production efficiency, and simple maintenance, but also avoids the glue edge overflow caused by spraying glue on the photo album cover. At the same time, this embodiment can adapt to the size and thickness of the photo album core with high adaptability. Specifically, when using the double-sided coating mechanism of this embodiment, place the photo album core on the first glue coating component 10. When the photoelectric sensor detects that the head of the photo album core reaches below the first glue coating component 10, the second lifting component 30 drives the second glue coating component 20 to descend, pressing the second glue coating component 20 onto the photo album core. The first glue coating component 10 and the second glue coating component 20 operate simultaneously and drive the photo album core to move, thus realizing the hot melt adhesive coating on the upper and lower surfaces of the photo album core. When the photoelectric sensor detects that the tail of the photo album core is about to reach below the first glue coating component 10, the second lifting component 30 is driven by a time delay to drive the second glue coating component 20 to rise, so that the coating is immediately disconnected when coating the tail of the photo album core, so that the two opposite surfaces of the photo album core can be just completely coated with glue.

[0059] The first glue coating component 10 of this embodiment includes a first glue pumping member 11 for storing and pumping out glue, a first glue box 12 cooperating with the first glue pumping member 11 and used for accommodating the pumped-out glue, a first glue coating roller 13 arranged in the first glue box 12, a second driving member 14 for driving the first glue coating roller 13, and a first glue scraping member 15 arranged in the first glue box 12 and used for scraping the glue on the first glue coating roller 13. Specifically, the first glue pumping member 11 includes a first glue storage box 111 for storing glue, and a first glue pumping pipe 112 communicating with the first glue storage box 111 and pumping the glue out to the first glue box 12. The pumping pressure can come from a gear pump or air pressure. The first glue box 12 is in an upward-opening shape. The first glue coating roller 13 is rotatably arranged in the first glue box 12. The first glue coating roller 13 is driven to rotate by the second driving member 14, so that the glue in the first glue box 12 adheres to the outer periphery of the first glue coating roller 13 and then coats the photo album core. In order to make the coating more uniform, a first glue scraping member 15 for scraping the first glue coating roller 13 is also arranged in the first glue box 12 of this embodiment. The first glue scraping member 15 can shape the hot melt adhesive on the surface of the first glue coating roller 13, so that the hot melt adhesive is uniformly coated on the photo album core.

[0060] The first glue scraping member 15 of this embodiment is a silicone strip arranged parallel to the first glue coating roller 13. The length of the silicone strip matches that of the first glue coating roller 13. The silicone material avoids scratching the glue coating roller and improves the service life of the product.

[0061] The first glue scraping member 15 of this embodiment is connected to the inner wall of the first glue box 12 through an adjusting element, so that the gap between the first glue scraping member 15 and the first glue coating roller 13 can be adjusted, realizing the function of adjusting the thickness of the hot melt adhesive on the first glue coating roller 13. The adjusting element of this embodiment can be an adjusting nut.

[0062] In other embodiments, the first glue scraping member 15 may also be fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first glue cartridge 12, and hot melt glue with a uniform thickness is used.

[0063] A first overflow member 16 is provided below the first glue cartridge 12 in this embodiment. Specifically, the first overflow member 16 in this embodiment is an overflow chute, and the overflow chute is provided below the end of the first glue cartridge 12. When the hot melt glue in the first glue cartridge 12 exceeds the end baffle of the first glue cartridge 12, it overflows the end baffle and flows out through the overflow chute below it. Moreover, the position of the overflow chute in this embodiment corresponds to the first glue storage box 111, and an opening for receiving the glue overflowing from the overflow chute may be provided on the first glue storage box 111, so as to realize the recycling of the overflow glue and avoid waste.

[0064] In other embodiments, the first overflow member 16 may be directly provided at the end of the first glue cartridge 12.

[0065] The second glue coating assembly 20 in this embodiment includes a second glue pumping member 21 for storing and pumping out glue, a glue supply member 22 connected to the second glue pumping member 21, a second glue coating roller 23 arranged in parallel with the glue supply member 22, a third driving member 24 for driving the second glue coating roller 23 to rotate, and a second glue scraping member 25 arranged between the glue supply member 22 and the second glue coating roller 23. Since the second glue coating roller 23 in this embodiment needs to coat the upper surface of the photo album core, that is, the lower part of the second glue coating roller 23 needs to contact the photo album core, it is impossible to use a glue cartridge to hold the glue and make the outer circumference of the second glue coating roller 23 adhere to the glue. Therefore, the second glue coating assembly 20 in this embodiment is differently designed from the first glue coating assembly 10, and does not use a glue cartridge to supply glue, but uses a glue supply member 22 to supply glue.

[0066] Specifically, the second glue pumping member 21 includes a second glue storage box 211 for storing glue, and a second glue pumping pipe 212 connected to the second glue storage box 211 and pumping the glue out to the glue supply member 22. The glue pumping pressure may come from a gear pump or air pressure. The glue supply member 22 then supplies the glue to the second glue coating roller 23, and drives the second glue coating roller 23 to rotate through the third driving member 24, so that the glue flowing out of the glue supply member 22 adheres to the outer circumference of the first glue coating roller 13 and then coats the photo album core. In order to make the glue coating more uniform, a second glue scraping member 25 is further arranged between the glue supply member 22 and the second glue coating roller 23, and the second glue scraping member 25 can shape the hot melt glue on the surface of the second glue coating roller 23 to uniformly coat the hot melt glue on the photo album core.

[0067] Both the first glue coating assembly 10 and the second glue coating assembly 20 in this embodiment are equipped with their own glue storage boxes, and the glue can be automatically replenished during use.

[0068] In this embodiment, both the second driving member 14 and the third driving member 24 are motors.

[0069] In this embodiment, the second glue applying member 21, the glue supply member 22, the second glue coating roller 23, the glue supply member 22, and the third driving member 24 are all integrated on the second glue coating machine frame, and the second lifting assembly 30 is connected to the second glue coating machine frame, so that the second lifting assembly 30 can drive the lifting of the second glue coating assembly 20. Specifically, the second lifting assembly 30 in this embodiment is a telescopic cylinder. In other embodiments, a ball screw structure can also be used as the second lifting assembly 30.

[0070] Similar to the first glue scraping member 15, the second glue scraping member 25 in this embodiment is connected to the glue supply member 22 through an adjusting element, so that the gap between the second glue scraping member 25 and the second glue coating roller 23 can be adjusted, realizing the function of adjusting the thickness of the hot melt glue on the second glue coating roller 23.

[0071] The glue supply member 22 in this embodiment is a glue supply pipe or a glue supply rod that matches the length of the second glue coating roller 23. A plurality of glue supply holes 221 are arranged at intervals along the length direction on the glue supply pipe or the glue supply rod, and the glue supply holes 221 are communicated with the second glue pumping member 21; the side where the glue supply holes 221 are located is the side corresponding to the second glue coating roller 23, and the second glue coating roller 23 is supplied with glue through the glue supply holes 221.

[0072] In addition, in order to further make the glue coating more uniform, this embodiment further includes a glue groove 222 arranged along the length direction of the glue supply member 22 and located outside the glue supply holes 221. The glue pressed out from the glue supply holes 221 can stay in the glue groove 222 and better contact with the second glue coating roller 23.

[0073] In other embodiments, a glue supply groove parallel to the second glue coating roller 23 can also be directly arranged in the length direction of the glue supply pipe or the glue supply rod. The glue supply groove is communicated with the second glue pumping member 21, and the glue supply groove is arranged on the side corresponding to the second glue coating roller 23.

[0074] The glue supply member 22 in this embodiment is also provided with a groove 223 for accommodating the second glue scraping member 25, which is convenient for the positioning and installation of the second glue scraping member 25.

[0075] In this embodiment, through the cooperation of the driving component and the positioning sensor, the album core and the album cover can be aligned and bonded before bonding. Specifically, the driving component described in this embodiment includes a tray driving member for driving the album cover tray 500 to displace in the horizontal direction, and a first horizontal guiding member 720 for guiding the horizontal displacement of the album cover tray 500. That is, the tray driving member and the first horizontal guiding member 720 cooperate to drive the album cover tray 500 to be able to displace in the horizontal longitudinal direction. Not only can the position of the album cover be adjusted before the album core drops, so that the album core and the album cover are aligned, but also, when the album core drops and the bottom of the album core is bonded to the album cover, the tray driving member drives the album cover tray 500 to move outwards, so that the album cover tray 500 is misaligned with the album core placement mechanism 200, leaving enough space above the album cover for the unbonded side of the album cover to be flipped. After flipping 180 degrees, it is bonded to the top of the album core to complete the album casing.

[0076] The first horizontal guiding member 720 described in this embodiment can be a guide rail or a guide post.

[0077] This embodiment also provides an album casing method, including the following steps:

[0078] Place the album core on the album core placement mechanism 200, and place the album cover on the album cover tray 500;

[0079] The album core placement mechanism 200 conveys the album core to the side gauge mechanism 300. After passing through the side gauge mechanism 300 and the double-sided coating mechanism 100, it enters the front gauge mechanism 400. The front gauge mechanism 400 performs front gauge positioning and alignment on the album core. At this time, the album core has not been coated with glue, and the side gauge mechanism 300 and the double-sided coating mechanism 100 only serve for transmission;

[0080] The aligned album core returns along the original path to the double-sided coating mechanism 100 for double-sided gluing;

[0081] The album core after double-sided gluing enters the side gauge mechanism 300 for side gauge positioning and alignment;

[0082] The album core after side gauge alignment returns to the album core placement mechanism;

[0083] After the positioning sensor senses the position of the album core, it calculates the moving distance of the album cover tray 500 or the album core placement mechanism 200 to make the album core centered front and back with the album cover; in this embodiment, that is, calculate the moving distance of the album cover tray 500 for alignment.

[0084] The album core placement mechanism 200 releases the album core, that is, the album feeding wheel set 210 and the hook 240 are sequentially withdrawn and moved outwards, so that the album core drops vertically onto the album cover, and one side of the bottom of the album core is bonded to the corresponding position on the album cover;

[0085] The driving component drives the photo album cover tray 500 to move, so as to leave a flipping space for the photo album cover above the photo album cover tray 500;

[0086] Flip the unbonded cover of the photo album cover 180 degrees along the guiding piece and then bond it to the top surface of the photo album core.

[0087] The above steps complete the shelling of one photo album. After taking out the finished product, repeating the above steps can perform the subsequent shelling of photo albums.

[0088] In this embodiment, the accuracy of simultaneous double-sided gluing of the horizontally moving photo album core and the bonding accuracy are controlled by an automated device, avoiding the glue edge overflow and uneven bonding caused by manual spraying and gluing during the production of photo albums. This not only improves the product qualification rate, but also takes into account low production costs, high production efficiency and simple maintenance.

[0089] Embodiment 2

[0090] As Figure 10 shown, the structure and principle of this embodiment are similar to those of Embodiment 1. The difference is that the driving component in this embodiment includes a third lifting component 730 for driving the lifting of the photo album core placement mechanism 200, and a lifting guiding member 740 for guiding the lifting of the photo album core placement mechanism 200. The alignment method of the photo album cover and the photo album core in this embodiment is the same as that in Embodiment 1. However, the photo album cover tray 500 only needs to move to align with the photo album core and then the photo album core drops. When the photo album core drops and the bottom of the photo album core is bonded to the photo album cover, the third lifting component 730 and the lifting guiding member 740 cooperate to drive the photo album core placement mechanism 200 to rise, so as to leave enough space above the photo album cover for the unbonded side of the photo album cover to be flipped. After flipping 180 degrees, it is bonded to the top of the photo album core to complete the shelling of the photo album. Since the third lifting component 730 is added in this embodiment to drive the photo album core placement mechanism 200 to rise, the photo album cover tray 500 does not need to move outwards at the maximum size of the photo album cover to separate from the photo album core placement mechanism 200 to complete the flipping and bonding of the photo album cover.

[0091] The lifting guiding member 740 in this embodiment can be a guide rail or a guiding column.

[0092] Embodiment 3

[0093] This embodiment is similar to Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2 in structure and principle. The difference is that the driving component in this embodiment drives the placement mechanism driving member for the horizontal displacement of the photo album core placement mechanism 200, and a second horizontal guiding member for guiding the horizontal displacement of the photo album core placement mechanism 200.

[0094] In this embodiment, the second driving member cooperates with the second horizontal guiding member to drive the photo album core placing mechanism 200 to be displaceable in the horizontal longitudinal direction. It can not only adjust the position of the photo album core before it drops, aligning the photo album core with the photo album cover, but also after the photo album core drops and the bottom of the photo album core is adhered to the photo album cover, the second driving member drives the photo album core placing mechanism 200 to move back, causing the photo album cover tray 500 to be misaligned with the photo album core placing mechanism 200, leaving enough space above the photo album cover for the unadhered side of the photo album cover to be flipped. After flipping 180 degrees, it is adhered to the top of the photo album core to complete the photo album casing.

[0095] At this time, the photo album cover tray 500 can be fixed to the outermost side of the machine frame, leaving enough space for the photo album core placing mechanism 200 to move back, that is, after the photo album core placing mechanism 200 moves back, the photo album core placing mechanism 200 is located between the photo album cover tray 500 and the side gauge mechanism 300.

[0096] The second horizontal guiding member in this embodiment can be a guide rail or a guiding column.

[0097] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are only examples for clearly illustrating the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than limitations on the specific implementation manners of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the claims of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
