The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present utility model or the above drawings are used to distinguish different objects and are not used to describe a specific order.

[0018] Reference to "embodiment" in the present utility model means that a specific feature, structure or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment can be included in at least one embodiment of the present utility model. The phrase appears at various positions in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an exclusive, independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments. Those skilled in the art explicitly and implicitly understand that the embodiments described in the present utility model can be combined with other embodiments.

[0019] In order to enable those skilled in the technical field to better understand the solution of the present utility model, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings.

[0020] As Figure 1 、 2 shown, a weighing and glue cleaning nozzle device for an automatic dispensing machine, the automatic dispensing machine includes a machine table and a controller, a dispensing mechanism is provided on the machine table, the dispensing mechanism is used for dispensing products, and a glue injection nozzle is provided on the dispensing mechanism. The weighing and glue cleaning nozzle device includes a calibration mounting frame 1, the calibration mounting frame 1 is fixedly installed on the machine table, a weighing assembly and a glue cleaning nozzle assembly are provided on the calibration mounting frame 1, the weighing assembly and the glue cleaning nozzle assembly are respectively connected to the controller of the automatic dispensing machine, and the controller can control the weighing assembly and the glue cleaning nozzle assembly to work respectively. The weighing assembly is used for weighing the glue injection amount of the glue injection nozzle, and the glue cleaning nozzle assembly is used for dredging the glue injection nozzle.

[0021] During specific operation, when the automatic dispensing machine needs to perform weighing calibration after processing for a period of time, the dispensing mechanism drives the dispensing nozzle to move to the corresponding position of the weighing component, and injects glue onto the weighing component. The weighing component can weigh the amount of glue discharged by the dispensing nozzle each time. If the weighing is insufficient and the dispensing nozzle needs to be unclogged, only need to control the dispensing mechanism to drive the dispensing nozzle to move to the corresponding position of the glue cleaning nozzle component, and control the glue cleaning nozzle component to unclog the dispensing nozzle. This weighing and glue cleaning nozzle device can weigh and calibrate the amount of glue dispensed by the automatic dispensing machine each time, and can automatically unclog the dispensing nozzle when it is blocked, reducing manual participation, thereby reducing labor costs and improving processing efficiency.

[0022] The weighing component includes an electronic scale 2, which is electrically connected to the controller. The electronic scale 2 is fixedly installed on the calibration mounting frame 1. A cup slot 3 is provided on the calibration mounting frame 1, and the cup slot 3 is used to place the weighing measurement cup. The dispensing mechanism can drive the dispensing nozzle to be connected to the cup slot 3. Before weighing calibration, the weighing measurement cup can be placed into the cup slot 3 in advance; when weighing calibration is required, control the dispensing mechanism to drive the dispensing nozzle to move directly above the weighing measurement cup, and then control the dispensing nozzle to extrude glue, and the glue will drip onto the weighing measurement cup; then the operator can take out the weighing measurement cup from the cup slot 3 and then place it on the electronic scale 2 for weighing. If the weighed weight is within the error range of the preset value, it means that the dispensing nozzle is not blocked, and the automatic dispensing machine can be controlled to continue working; if the weighed weight is lower than the error range of the preset value, it means that the dispensing nozzle is blocked, and the dispensing mechanism needs to be controlled to drive the dispensing nozzle to move to the glue cleaning nozzle component to unclog the dispensing nozzle, so as to ensure that an appropriate amount of glue can be extruded during subsequent dispensing processing.

[0023] The glue cleaning nozzle component includes a wiping piece 4 and a vacuum suction head 5. A wiping mounting block 6 is provided on the calibration mounting frame 1. The wiping piece 4 is installed on the wiping mounting block 6, and the wiping piece 4 is detachably connected to the wiping mounting block 6, which is convenient for replacing the wiping piece 4. The vacuum suction head 5 is connected to the calibration mounting frame 1, and the vacuum suction head 5 is externally connected to a negative pressure device. The dispensing mechanism can drive the dispensing nozzle to be connected to the wiping piece 4 and the vacuum suction head 5 respectively. During specific operation, when the dispensing nozzle needs to be unclogged, first control the dispensing mechanism to drive the dispensing nozzle to move to the wiping piece 4, so that the dispensing nozzle rubs against the wiping test piece, and first wipe off the excess glue on the dispensing nozzle through the wiping piece 4; then control the dispensing mechanism to drive the dispensing nozzle to be connected to the vacuum suction head 5, and then make the vacuum suction head 5 generate negative pressure suction through the negative pressure device externally connected to the vacuum suction head 5, so as to suck out the residual glue inside the dispensing nozzle to achieve the purpose of unclogging the dispensing nozzle.

[0024] In this embodiment, the wiping member 4 is a sponge adsorbed with alcohol. When the dispensing mechanism drives the dispensing nozzle to rub against the wiping member 4, the wiping member 4 can apply the alcohol onto the dispensing nozzle, thereby softening the residual glue on the dispensing nozzle, enabling the vacuum suction head 5 to more easily suck out the glue in the dispensing nozzle, and improving the efficiency and stability of cleaning the dispensing nozzle.

[0025] A calibration mounting block 7 is provided on the calibration mounting frame 1. A height calibration block 8 and a horizontal calibration block 9 are provided on the calibration mounting block 7. The dispensing mechanism can drive the dispensing nozzle to contact the height calibration block 8 and the horizontal calibration block 9 respectively. The height calibration block 8 is used to calibrate the horizontal height of the dispensing nozzle, and the horizontal calibration block 9 is used to calibrate the horizontal movement distance of the dispensing nozzle. When it is necessary to calibrate the dispensing height of the dispensing nozzle, control the dispensing mechanism to drive the dispensing nozzle to move above the height calibration block 8 and control the dispensing nozzle to descend until the dispensing nozzle contacts the height calibration block 8, which indicates that the height of the dispensing nozzle at this time is the dispensing height of the automatic dispenser; when it is necessary to calibrate the horizontal movement distance of the dispensing nozzle, control the dispensing mechanism to drive the dispensing nozzle to move above the height calibration block 8 and control the dispensing nozzle to descend until the dispensing nozzle contacts the height calibration block 8. The horizontal coordinate information of the current dispensing nozzle can be obtained through the CCD camera on the dispensing mechanism; by setting the horizontal calibration block 9 and the height calibration block 8, it is convenient to debug the automatic dispenser and improve the efficiency of machine adjustment.

[0026] Specifically, the height calibration block 8 is movably and limit-connected to the calibration mounting block 7. A contact sensor 10 is provided on the calibration mounting block 7. The contact sensor 10 is connected to the controller. The contact sensor 10 is arranged directly below the height calibration block 8, and the height calibration block 8 can contact the contact sensor 10. When calibrating the horizontal height of the dispensing nozzle, when the dispensing mechanism drives the dispensing nozzle to descend until it contacts the height calibration block 8, the dispensing nozzle will appropriately press the height calibration block 8, so that the height calibration block 8 presses down to contact the contact sensor 10, and the contact sensor 10 feeds back a signal to the controller, enabling the controller to obtain the height data of the current dispensing nozzle; so as to facilitate the controller to accurately control the dispensing height of the dispensing nozzle to be consistent each time, ensuring the consistency and stability of processing.

[0027] Coordinate marks 11 are provided on the horizontal calibration block 9. During the calibration of the horizontal movement distance of the dispensing nozzle, the dispensing nozzle will move on the coordinate marks 11. By photographing the numerical changes of the coordinate marks 11 corresponding to the dispensing nozzle at various positions through the CCD camera, the movement distance of the dispensing nozzle can be calculated, so that the controller can accurately control the horizontal movement distance of the dispensing nozzle, ensuring the consistency and stability of processing.

[0028] Installing the weighing and glue cleaning nozzle device on the automatic dispensing machine can achieve weighing and calibration of the glue output of the dispensing nozzle each time, and can automatically dredge the dispensing nozzle in case of blockage, reducing manual participation and labor costs, and improving the processing efficiency of the equipment; on the other hand, installing the height calibration block 8 and the horizontal calibration block 9 on the calibration mounting frame 1 can assist the automatic dispensing machine in adjusting the machine, so as to quickly and accurately locate the dispensing height and horizontal movement distance of the dispensing nozzle, reducing the debugging time of the equipment, ensuring the consistency of each dispensing, and improving the processing stability and the qualified product rate.

[0029] The above specific implementation manners are the preferred implementation manners of the present utility model, and do not limit the specific implementation scope of the present utility model. The scope of the present utility model includes but is not limited to this specific implementation manner. All equivalent changes made in accordance with the present utility model are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
