[0039] In existing technology, the production process of mobile phone glass coating typically requires transfer between various process stages and equipment. Different process stages or equipment have different production modes, resulting in different outputs. When connecting different process stages or equipment, vacuum periods occur, increasing waiting time and seriously affecting production efficiency.

[0040] The utility model provides a carrier board buffer device.

[0041] See also Figures 1 to 3As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the carrier plate cache device includes: a frame 100, a support seat 200, a hanger 300 and a limit member 400, wherein the interior of the frame 100 is provided with a accommodating cavity for accommodating the carrier plate 600; the support seat 200 is connected to the frame 100, and the support seat 200 is used to receive the carrier plate 600, and multiple carrier plates 600 are supported on the support seat 200 at intervals; the hanger 300 is connected to the frame 100, one end of the carrier plate 600 is connected to the support seat 200, and the other end of the carrier plate 600 is connected to the hanger 300; the support seat 200 and the hanger 300 are both provided with a limit member 400, and the limit member 400 is used to connect to the carrier plate 600 and limit the movement of the carrier plate 600.

[0042] It should be noted that the carrier plate buffer device is used to hold a carrier plate 600, onto which multiple mobile phone glasses are fixed. The carrier plate 600 is placed in the buffer device awaiting the next pair of mobile phone coating processes. In this embodiment, the rack 100 includes a frame and an outer shell. The outer shell is fixed to the bracket and surrounds a receiving cavity. The front side of the rack 100 has an opening to facilitate the removal and placement of the carrier plate 600. The rack 100 is provided with a workbench, on which the support base 200 is fixedly mounted. The hanger 300 is fixedly connected to the top of the receiving cavity within the rack 100. The carrier plate 600 is placed vertically within the rack 100, with the bottom of the carrier plate 600 supported by the support base 200, and its displacement on the support base 200 is restricted by the stopper 400. The top of the carrier plate 600 is suspended from the hanger 300, and its displacement is restricted by the stopper 400 to prevent it from falling off the hanger 300. The support base 200 and the upper limit member 400 of the hanger 300 work together to prevent the carrier plate 600 from moving and rotating.

[0043] The technical solution of the present invention is to set a storage cavity in the frame 100, place the carrier plate 600 in the storage cavity, and further fix the carrier plate 600 by the support base 200, the hanger 300 and the limiter 400. Specifically, the support base 200 and the hanger 300 are both fixed to the frame 100, one end of the carrier plate 600 is connected to the hanger 300, and the other end is supported on the support base 200. The movement of the carrier plate 600 is limited by the limiter 400, and the support base 200 can carry multiple carrier plates 600. In this way, the carrier plate 600 can be temporarily stored in the storage cavity of the frame 100 and can be taken at any time. In the production process of mobile phone glass coating, there is no need to wait between processes, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0044] In one embodiment, the support base 200 includes two vertical plates 210 and multiple horizontal plates 220. The vertical plates 210 are connected to the frame 100, and the two vertical plates 210 are arranged opposite to each other. The two ends of the horizontal plate 220 are respectively connected to the two vertical plates 210, and the multiple horizontal plates 220 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the vertical plates 210.

[0045] During implementation, the carrier plates 600 are spaced apart within the accommodating cavity along the length of the rack 100, with the length of the vertical plates 210 aligned with the length of the rack 100. Specifically, the vertical plates 210 are vertically mounted on the workbench and extend along the length of the rack 100. Two vertical plates 210 are positioned opposite each other, and a cross plate 220 spans and connects the two vertical plates 210. Multiple cross plates 220 are spaced apart along the length of the vertical plates 210, and the carrier plates 600 are positioned correspondingly to and supported on the cross plates 220. In this embodiment, the hanger 300 is provided with multiple hanging plates, which are spaced apart along the length of the rack 100 on the hanger 300, and are positioned correspondingly to the carrier plates 600. That is, each carrier plate 600 is hung on a corresponding hanging plate.

[0046] In one embodiment, the support base 200 further includes a support pad 230. The horizontal plate 220 defines a fixing groove 221. The support pad 230 is positioned within the fixing groove 221 and is fixedly connected to the horizontal plate 220. The fixing groove 221 extends from the top surface of the support pad 230 to support the carrier plate 600. In a specific implementation, the support pad 230 is made of a soft material such as rubber, which not only protects the carrier plate 600 but also reduces wear and tear and dust generation. Two support pads 230 are provided on the horizontal plate 220. Specifically, a fixing groove 221 is defined on the top surface of the horizontal plate 220 near each end. The fixing groove 221 limits the displacement of the support pad 230 on the horizontal plate 220. The support pad 230 is connected to the fixing groove 221 by bonding or bolts. The top surface of the support pad 230 is higher than the top surface of the horizontal plate 220. The end of the carrier plate 600 is supported on the support pad 230, and there is a gap between the end of the carrier plate 600 and the top surface of the horizontal plate 220 to prevent the carrier plate 600 from contacting and rubbing with the horizontal plate 220 to generate dust.

[0047] In one embodiment, the limiting member 400 includes a first limiting pin 410 and a second limiting pin 420. A first limiting hole 610 is provided at one end of the carrier plate 600, and a second limiting hole 620 is provided at the other end. The first limiting hole 610 corresponds to the first limiting pin 410, and the first limiting pin 410 is used to cooperate and plug with the first limiting hole 610. The second limiting hole 620 corresponds to the second limiting pin 420, and the second limiting pin 420 is used to cooperate and plug with the second limiting hole 620.

[0048] During the specific implementation process, the second limiting pin 420 is fixed on the top surface of the hanging plate of the hanger 300. When the carrier plate 600 is placed into the receiving slot, one end of the carrier plate 600 is first hung on the second limiting pin 420 of the hanging plate through the second limiting hole 620 and the second pin, and then the first limiting hole 610 of the carrier plate 600 is matched with the first pin, and the carrier plate 600 is supported on the support pad 230.

[0049] Furthermore, two first limiting pins 410 are provided, and the two first limiting pins 410 are spaced apart along the length of the cross plate 220. The two first limiting pins 410 are fixed side by side on the cross plate 220. Accordingly, the two first limiting holes 610 are spaced apart and correspond to the two first limiting pins 410, respectively. In this way, the rotation of the carrier plate 600 can be restricted, thereby improving the stability of the carrier plate 600.

[0050] During the specific implementation, the surface roughness of the first limiting pin 410 and the second limiting pin 420 is less than 0.8 μm. It is understandable that during the mobile phone glass coating process, high requirements are placed on environmental cleanliness. Because friction is easily generated between the first limiting pin 410 and the first limiting hole 610, and between the second limiting pin 420 and the second limiting hole 620 during the process of taking and placing the carrier 600, the surface roughness of the first limiting pin 410 and the second limiting pin 420 is limited, and special materials can also be used to reduce dust generation.

[0051] In one embodiment, reference Figure 4 As shown, the carrier buffer device also includes a fan filter unit 500, which is connected to the frame 100 and is used to blow air into the storage chamber. In a specific implementation, the fan filter unit 500 (FFU) is installed on the rear side of the frame 100 and communicates with the storage chamber. It blows air into the storage chamber, purifying the air in the storage chamber and reducing the impact of dust on the mobile phone glass on the carrier 600.

[0052] In this embodiment, multiple carrier plates 600 are placed at intervals, and there are gaps between the vertical plates 210 of the support base 200 and between the ends of the carrier plates 600 and the horizontal plates 220, which facilitate the flow of air in the accommodating cavity, improve the air circulation efficiency, and thus improve the purification effect.

[0053] In one embodiment, reference Figure 5 As shown, the accommodating cavity includes a first cache area 110, a second cache area 120 and a take-and-place area 130. The first cache area 110 and the second cache area 120 are arranged on opposite sides of the take-and-place area 130, and the capacities of the first cache area 110 and the second cache area 120 are different.

[0054] During the specific implementation process, the pick-and-place area 130 is used to avoid the manipulator of robot c so that the manipulator of robot c can pick up and place the carrier 600. The manipulator of robot c can pick up and place the carrier 600 in the first buffer area 110 and the second buffer area 120 through the pick-and-place area 130, and the two buffer areas will not interfere with each other. In this embodiment, the capacity of the first buffer area 110 is greater than the capacity of the second buffer area 120. It should be noted that there are multiple mobile phone glass coating machines and coating production lines. When a production line temporarily does not have mobile phone glass to be coated, the manipulator of robot c takes out the carrier 600 from the second buffer area 120 and places it on a trolley. The carrier 600 can be transferred to the corresponding coating machine for coating by moving the trolley, thereby avoiding affecting production efficiency and improving production efficiency.

[0055] The utility model also proposes a coating production line, such as Figure 6 As shown, the coating production line includes a coating machine, a robot c, and a carrier buffer device a. The specific structure of the carrier buffer device a is referred to in the above embodiments. Since the coating production line adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, and will not be described in detail here. Among them, the robot c is connected to the track module b, which drives the robot c to move so that the robot c has a material retrieval position and a coating position. At the material retrieval position, the robot c removes the carrier 600 from the carrier buffer device a or places the carrier 600 in the carrier buffer device a. At the coating position, the robot c transfers the carrier 600 to the coating machine.

[0056] During implementation, track module b drives robot c to the material removal position. Robot c, according to instructions, places carrier 600 from the previous process into carrier buffer device a or removes carrier 600 from carrier buffer device a. Track module b drives robot c to the coating position. Robot c places carrier 600 into the coating machine for coating. This reduces waiting time between processes in the coating production line and improves production efficiency.

[0057] Furthermore, the coating production line also includes a dry ultrasonic cleaner d (USC). Robot c also has a cleaning position, located between the material removal position and the coating position. In the cleaning position, robot c drives the carrier 600 close to the dry ultrasonic cleaner, and the dry ultrasonic cleaner blows air towards the carrier 600. To improve the efficiency of mobile phone glass coating, robot c first moves to the cleaning position before moving to the coating position. The dry ultrasonic cleaner cleans and removes dust from the carrier 600 and the mobile phone glass on the carrier 600. Then, robot c moves to the coating position to carry out the coating process, thereby ensuring the coating effect.

[0058] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural transformations made based on the contents of the present invention specification and drawings, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields, are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
