Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of ceramic processing equipment, in particular to a rotary automatic glazing device. Background Art

[0002] In the production process of ceramic products, in order to make the surface of the finished product have a smooth glaze surface, it is necessary to evenly cover a layer of glaze on the outside of the ceramic blank. After high-temperature firing, the glaze can form a glaze surface on the outside of the ceramic blank. Glazing by dipping is a common processing method for glazing ceramic blanks. The process is to immerse the ceramic blank into the prepared glaze so that the glaze evenly covers the outside of the ceramic blank. Compared with the spraying method (using a spray gun to spray the glaze on the ceramic blank) and the spoon pouring method (scooping up the glaze with a container and then pouring it on the ceramic blank), since the whole ceramic blank is immersed in the glaze and the glaze evenly covers the ceramic blank by its own fluidity, its uniformity is higher. For products that need to cover the glaze on both the inside and outside of the whole ceramic blank, glazing by dipping is the best and most commonly used glazing method. At present, the glazing operation of ceramic blanks is mostly carried out manually. The main reason is that using conventional clamping equipment requires a large area of contact with the ceramic blank, resulting in uneven glazing at the contact part between the clamping equipment and the ceramic blank, and additional glazing operations are required, which affects the processing efficiency. In addition, for products that need to cover the glaze on both the inside and outside, when glazing by dipping, the ceramic blank needs to be placed with the opening facing down and immersed in the glaze at an inclined angle so that the glaze can enter the inside of the ceramic blank and cover both the inside and outside of the ceramic blank at the same time. However, conventional clamping and moving equipment all moves vertically up and down, and it cannot cover the inside of the ceramic blank with glaze. Although equipment with multi-axis drive can also make the glaze enter the inside of the ceramic blank, it has problems such as complex equipment structure and high equipment cost.

An immersion glazing pool and a conveying mechanism are respectively arranged on both sides of the driving turntable.

[0005] Specifically, the driving turntable includes a frame, a fixed chassis, a rotating disk, a driving motor, and a driving gear. The fixed chassis and the driving motor are fixed on the frame. The rotating disk is rotatably connected to the fixed chassis through a bearing. The driving motor is drivingly connected to the rotating disk through the driving gear.

[0009] Specifically, a pressing head is provided at the end of the fixed pressing rod, and the pressing head is made of polytetrafluoroethylene material.

[0010] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: By using the driving turntable to rotate and drive a plurality of dipping glaze robotic arms, and cooperating with the clamping, swinging and rotating of the dipping glaze robotic arms, effective glazing of the ceramic blank can be achieved.

Description of the Drawings

[0011] Attached Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the rotary numerically controlled automatic dipping glaze device in the embodiment (including two working station states of the up and down swinging of the dipping glaze robotic arm);

[0012] Attached Figure 2 is a schematic top view structure diagram of the rotary numerically controlled automatic dipping glaze device in the embodiment (removing the fixed pressing rod). Detailed Embodiments

[0013] Embodiment 1, referring to Figure 1-2 , a rotary numerically controlled automatic dipping glaze device, includes a driving turntable 1 and a plurality of dipping glaze robotic arms 2 drivingly connected to the driving turntable 1. The dipping glaze robotic arm 2 includes a mounting frame 21, a swing driving mechanism 22, a rotation driving mechanism 23, a pallet 24, a pressing rod driving mechanism 25, and a fixed pressing rod 26. The swing driving mechanism 22 is fixed on the mounting frame 21 and is drivingly connected to the rotation driving mechanism 23. The rotation driving mechanism 23 is drivingly connected to the pallet 24. The fixed pressing rod 26 is rotatably connected to the pallet 24. The pressing rod driving mechanism 25 is fixed on the pallet 24 and is drivingly connected to the fixed pressing rod 26. A dipping glaze pool 3 and a conveying mechanism 4 are respectively arranged on both sides of the driving turntable 1.

[0014] In this embodiment, the driving turntable 1 drives a plurality of glaze dipping robotic arms 2 to rotate, so that the plurality of glaze dipping robotic arms 2 sequentially pass through the glaze dipping pool 3 for glaze dipping, and then pass through the conveying mechanism 4 for loading and unloading. Among them, the glaze dipping robotic arm 2 is used to clamp and fix the ceramic blank 10. After reaching above the glaze dipping pool 3, the swing driving mechanism 22 drives the rotation driving mechanism 23 together with the pallet 24, the lever driving mechanism 25, the fixed lever 26, and the ceramic blank 10 clamped and fixed between the fixed lever 26 and the pallet 24 to swing downward together, so that the ceramic blank 10 is immersed in the glaze dipping pool 3. After the ceramic blank 20 is immersed in the glaze dipping pool, the rotation driving mechanism 23 is used to drive the pallet 24, the lever driving mechanism 25, the fixed lever 26, and the ceramic blank 10 to rotate 180 degrees, so that the ceramic blank 10 rotates 180 degrees in the glaze dipping pool 3, so that both the inner and outer sides of the ceramic blank 10 are evenly covered with glaze in the glaze dipping pool 3. After the ceramic blank 10 is glazed, the swing driving mechanism 22 drives the rotation driving mechanism 23 together with the ceramic blank 10 to swing upward to the original state, so that the ceramic blank 10 comes out of the glaze dipping pool 3, and the excess glaze on the ceramic blank 10 flows back into the glaze dipping pool 3. Then, the rotation driving mechanism 23 controls the ceramic blank 10 to rotate 180 degrees again so that the opening of the ceramic blank 10 faces upward, and then the lever driving mechanism 25 drives the fixed lever 26 to rotate upward to release the ceramic blank 10. When the glaze dipping robotic arm 2 returns to the conveying mechanism 4 after coming out of the glaze dipping pool 3, the glazed ceramic blank 10 is taken off the pallet 24 and placed on the conveying mechanism 4, and the ceramic blank 10 to be glazed is taken from the conveying mechanism 4 and placed on the pallet 4. Then, the lever driving mechanism 25 drives the fixed lever 26 to rotate downward to clamp and fix the ceramic blank 10 together with the pallet 24. In this way, the automatic glaze dipping operation of the ceramic blank 10 is realized. Among them, for the loading and unloading of the ceramic blank 10 at the conveying mechanism 4, manual loading and unloading operations can be adopted, or common multi-axis robotic arms can be used for loading and unloading operations, which can be specifically adjusted according to actual needs. The conveying mechanism 4 is preferably a belt conveying mechanism.

[0015] Specifically, in this embodiment, the driving turntable 1 includes a frame 11, a fixed chassis 12, a rotating disk 13, a driving motor 14, and a driving gear 15. The fixed chassis 12 and the driving motor 14 are fixed on the frame 11. The rotating disk 13 is rotatably connected to the fixed chassis 12 through a bearing 16. The driving motor 14 is drivingly connected to the rotating disk 13 through the driving gear 15. Among them, the rotating disk 13 is rotatably connected to the fixed chassis 12 through a bearing 16. A gear is fixedly connected to the outside of the bearing 16. The driving motor 14 is meshed with the gear on the outside of the bearing 16 through the driving gear 15, so as to realize the rotation control of the rotating disk 13.

[0016] Specifically, in this embodiment, the swing drive mechanism 22 uses a swing cylinder; the pressing rod drive mechanism 25 uses a drive cylinder. The swing cylinder uses pneumatic drive, which can achieve the swing of an object within a certain angle range. It has a simple structure and is suitable for driving with a certain torque requirement. The pressing rod drive mechanism 25 using a drive cylinder can drive the fixed pressing rod 26 to rotate, and at the same time, the force of the drive cylinder pressing the fixed pressing rod 26 on the ceramic blank 10 on the pallet 24 can be adjusted by adjusting the drive air pressure of the drive cylinder, avoiding damage to the ceramic blank 10.

[0017] In a further preferred embodiment, a number of glaze leakage holes 241 are evenly distributed on the pallet 24; a pressing head 261 is provided at the end of the fixed pressing rod 26, and the pressing head 261 is made of polytetrafluoroethylene material. The glaze leakage holes 241 on the pallet 24 can allow the glaze to pass through the holes 241 and cover the bottom of the ceramic blank 10 when the ceramic blank 10 is immersed in the glaze, and when the ceramic blank 10 comes out of the glazing bath 3, the glaze between the bottom of the ceramic blank 10 and the pallet 24 can be leaked out; the pressing head 261 made of polytetrafluoroethylene material provided at the end of the fixed pressing rod 26 can utilize the characteristics of the polytetrafluoroethylene material to avoid the glaze sticking to the pressing head 261 and the problem of glaze accumulation at the position of the fixed pressing rod 261 after the fixed pressing rod 26 is released, improving the glazing quality.

[0018] Certainly, the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it does not limit the scope of use of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent changes made on the principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
