DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides an automatic gluing device, comprising: a safety fence 1, a fixed frame 3, a mobile platform 5, and a robot 7. The safety fence 1 is used to separate the working area of ​​the gluing device from the outside world. On the one hand, it can prevent the gluing device from polluting the external environment during operation. On the other hand, it can prevent workers from approaching the gluing device, preventing the device from injuring people, and improving the safety of the gluing device during operation.

[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, a fence opening 101 is provided on one side of the safety fence 1, and a fixed frame 3 is disposed at the location of the fence opening 101. Preferably, the fixed frame 3 is a cubic structure composed of multiple steel components. A plurality of support legs are provided at the bottom of the fixed frame 3, and the support legs are fixed to the ground by bolts. The fence opening 101 divides the fixed frame 3 into two parts. One part of the fixed frame 3 is located outside the safety fence 1, and is used to facilitate the operator to place the workpiece 6 to be glued on the mobile platform 5. The other part of the fixed frame 3 is located inside the safety fence 1, and is used to assist the mobile platform 5 in transporting the workpiece 6 to be glued to the designated gluing station.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, a driving cylinder 4 is provided on the fixed frame 3, and the driving cylinder 4 is connected to the mobile platform 5 through a piston rod (not shown in the figure). The mobile platform 5 is used to place the workpiece 6 to be glued. Specifically, the end of the piston rod is connected to the bottom surface of the mobile platform 5 through a connecting plate, wherein the length direction of the driving cylinder 4 is consistent with the direction of movement of the mobile platform 5 on the fixed frame 3. The driving cylinder 4 drives the piston rod to extend and retract, thereby driving the mobile platform 5 to reciprocate on the fixed frame 3.

[0033] A robot 7 is arranged on the inner side of the safety fence 1, wherein the robot 7 is a six-axis industrial robot. The six-axis industrial robot is a relatively mature existing technology, so its specific structure is not repeated here. A mounting base 12 is provided at the bottom end of the robot 7. The mounting base 12 is installed on the ground for fixing the robot 7. The end of the robot 7 is connected to the glue valve 8, and the glue valve 8 is used to apply glue to the workpiece 6 to be glued. The robot 7 cooperates with the mobile platform 5. According to the type of the workpiece 6 to be glued, the driving cylinder 4 drives the mobile platform 5 to move and pushes the workpiece 6 to be glued to the set position. The robot 7 drives the glue valve 8 to apply glue to the surface of each position of the workpiece 6 to be glued in turn.

[0034] In addition, a glue supply device 9 is provided on the outside of the safety fence 1 , and the glue supply device 9 is connected to the glue valve 8 through a feed pipe (not shown in the figure), and glue is supplied to the glue valve 8 through the glue supply device 9 .

[0035] It should be noted that a human-machine interface 2 is provided on the exterior of the safety fence 1 for human-machine interaction. Furthermore, a main control cabinet 15 is located outside the safety fence 1. This cabinet is connected to the drive cylinder 4 and issues commands to the drive cylinder 4, controlling the reciprocating motion and specific resting position of the mobile platform 5 on the fixed frame 3. The main control cabinet 15 also provides safety protection for the entire device. If a leakage or other condition occurs, the main control cabinet 15 automatically cuts off power to prevent prolonged contact that could endanger the operator's life.

[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, a glue coating machine control cabinet 13 is provided on one side of the safety fence 1 and is provided on one side of the glue supply device 9. The glue coating machine control cabinet 13 is used to control the glue coating valve 8 and adjust the glue coating process parameters according to the type of the workpiece 6 to be glued. Specifically, a touch screen is provided on the glue coating machine control cabinet, through which program instructions can be input according to the type of the workpiece 6 to be glued, so as to automatically control the glue coating valve 8 to apply glue to the workpiece 6 to be glued.

[0037] During use, in the initial state, the mobile platform 5 is located outside the safety fence 1. After the operator places the workpiece 6 to be glued on the mobile platform 5, the main control cabinet 15 controls the driving cylinder 4 to push the mobile platform 5 through the fence opening 101 to the inside of the safety fence 1 until the workpiece 6 to be glued is in the set position. The robot 7 continuously changes the position of the glue valve 8 according to the type of the workpiece 6 to be glued. The glue machine control cabinet 13 controls the glue valve 8 to accurately apply glue to the surface of each position of the workpiece 6 to be glued in turn. Compared with manual gluing, the glue valve 8 can accurately contact the surface of each position of the workpiece 6 to be glued, and there will be no jitter causing uneven and inaccurate glue coating, so as to improve the quality and efficiency of gluing.

[0038] In one embodiment of the present invention, a metering device 10 is provided inside the safety fence 1, wherein a mounting frame is provided on the inner side of the safety fence 1, the mounting frame is provided between the robot 7 and the glue supply device 9, and the metering device 10 is provided in the middle part of the feed pipe. Therefore, the glue supplied by the glue supply device 9 to the glue valve 8 through the feed pipe first passes through the metering device 10 and then is transported to the glue valve 8. The metering device 10 controls the speed at which the glue supply device 9 supplies the glue to the glue valve 8 in real time according to the instructions of the glue coating machine control cabinet 13, so as to ensure that the glue valve 8 applies a precise amount of glue at different positions on the workpiece 6 to be glued, thereby improving the gluing quality of the workpiece.

[0039] In addition, an identification sensor 11 is provided on the mobile platform 5. The identification sensor 11 is used to identify the model of the quick-change fixture 501. According to the different models of the quick-change fixture 501, the model of the workpiece to be glued is determined. The main control cabinet 15 will send an action instruction to the drive cylinder 4 to control the drive cylinder 4 to drive the telescopic stroke of the piston rod to push the workpiece 6 to be glued to the set position. It should be noted that the human-machine interface 2 will pre-set the program for the action of the drive cylinder 4 according to the type of workpiece to ensure that the drive cylinder 4 can be pushed to the set position to the workpiece 6 to be glued. Correspondingly, the robot 7 drives the glue valve 8 to move according to the type of the workpiece 6 to be glued, completes the gluing work of different models of workpieces 6 to be glued, and thus improves the scope of application of the overall gluing equipment.

[0040] In one embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of guide rails 301 are provided on the fixed frame 3, and the guide rails 301 are slidably connected to the mobile platform 5. Preferably, a rolling wheel is provided at the bottom end of the mobile platform 5, and the rolling wheel can move in a certain direction along the guide rails 301, thereby improving the stability of the mobile platform 5 during movement. Of course, a slide groove can also be provided on the bottom surface of the mobile platform 5, and the slide groove can be slidably connected to the guide rails 301, which can also ensure that the mobile platform 5 can move in a certain direction along the guide rails 301, thereby improving the stability of the mobile platform 5 during movement.

[0041] In addition, several quick-change fixtures 501 are set on the mobile platform 5. The quick-change fixtures 501 can be quickly replaced according to different product models. Specifically, multiple quick-change fixtures 501 are distributed on the circumferential outside of the workpiece 6 to be glued. The workpiece 6 to be glued is clamped together by multiple quick-change fixtures 501 to ensure that the position of the workpiece 6 to be glued relative to the mobile platform 5 remains fixed when the glue valve 8 applies glue to the workpiece 6 to be glued, thereby ensuring that the glue valve 8 can accurately apply glue to various positions of the workpiece to be inspected.

[0042] It should be noted that a robot control cabinet 16 is provided outside the safety fence 1 , and the robot control cabinet 16 is used to control the robot 7 , and the movement of the robot 7 can be flexibly controlled through the robot control cabinet 16 .

[0043] In one embodiment of the present invention, the safety fence 1 includes: a support frame, several support frames are provided with fence meshes, the gluing equipment is isolated from the outside world by the fence meshes, and several safety gratings 14 are provided on the outside of the safety fence 1. The safety gratings 14 are used to detect whether there are other objects or people approaching the safety fence 1 area in addition to the workpiece 6 to be glued, so as to further avoid equipment-related injuries and improve the safety of the gluing equipment during operation.

[0044] When the present invention is used, after the workpiece 6 to be glued is placed on the mobile platform 5, the main control cabinet 15 controls the driving cylinder 4 to drive the piston rod to extend and push the mobile platform 5 through the fence opening 101 to the inner side of the safety fence 1 until the workpiece 6 to be glued is in the set position. The identification sensor 11 identifies the type of the quick-change fixture 501, and determines the type of the workpiece 6 to be glued according to different types of quick-change fixtures 501. According to the type of the workpiece 6 to be glued, the robot control cabinet 16 controls the robot to drive the glue valve to continuously change its position. The glue machine control cabinet 13 controls the glue valve 8 to accurately apply glue to the surface of each position of the workpiece 6 to be glued in turn until the gluing work of the workpiece 6 to be glued is completed. After the gluing work is completed, the main control cabinet 15 controls the driving cylinder 4 to drive the piston rod to retract and pull the mobile platform 5 through the fence opening to the outside of the safety fence 1 to remove the workpiece.

[0045] In summary, the main control cabinet 15 controls the driving cylinder 4 to push the workpiece 6 to be glued to the set position, and the robot control cabinet 16 controls the robot 7 to continuously change the position of the glue valve 8 according to the type of the workpiece 6 to be glued, so that the glue valve 8 applies glue to the surface of each position of the workpiece 6 to be glued in turn, and the glue machine control cabinet 13 controls the glue valve 8 to accurately contact the surface of each position of the workpiece 6 to be glued, thereby effectively improving the quality and efficiency of gluing.

[0046] It should be noted that, in this specification, relational terms such as first and second are merely used to distinguish one entity from other entities, but do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities.

[0047] This article uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The above examples are only intended to help understand the method and core concept of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications to the present invention without departing from the principles of the present invention, and such improvements and modifications also fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
