[0032] In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish in description and have no special meaning.

[0033] The aerogel pressing device of this embodiment can be embedded in an automatic transmission device for use, for example, embedded in a double-speed chain or belt conveyor.

[0034] Combine Figures 1 to 4As shown, the aerogel pressing equipment of this embodiment mainly includes: a frame, a jig 2, a lifting mechanism and a manipulator 5. The frame is used as the main body of the equipment, mainly playing the role of installing and supporting the equipment. The frame includes a support plate 1. The jig 2 is used to carry the rubber frame, and the jig 2 is provided with a window that penetrates itself along the thickness direction. The lifting mechanism includes a first power source 31 and a lifting plate 32. The first power source 31 is fixed on the support plate 1 of the frame, and the lifting plate 32 is connected to the output shaft of the first power source 31. The lifting plate 32 is provided with a plurality of (preferably four) top columns 33 for supporting the jig 2. The lifting plate 32 is also provided with a second power source 34, a third power source 35, a fourth power source 36 and a fifth power source 37. The output shaft of the second power source 34 is connected to the first pressing plate 41, the output shaft of the third power source 35 is connected to the second pressing plate 42, the output shaft of the fourth power source 36 is connected to the third pressing plate 43, and the output shaft of the fifth power source 37 is connected to the fourth pressing plate 44. The first pressing plate 41, the second pressing plate 42, the third pressing plate 43 and the fourth pressing plate 44 are respectively inserted into the above-mentioned windows from the bottom of the jig 2 to press the four sides of the rubber frame against the jig 2, so that the inner hole of the retractable rubber frame is expanded to be larger than the outer size of the aerogel 10, so that the robot 5 can place the aerogel 10 into the rubber frame to avoid wrinkling, stacking or damage of the aerogel 10.

[0035] Specifically, if Figure 4 As shown, the jig 2 of this embodiment includes an upper plate 21 and a lower plate 22 that are stacked and connected to each other. Among them, the upper plate 21 is provided with a first rectangular through hole 211 for placing the rubber frame, and the lower plate 22 is provided with a second rectangular through hole 221. The second rectangular through hole 221 is correspondingly located below the first rectangular through hole 211. The first rectangular through hole 211 and the second rectangular through hole 221 together constitute the above-mentioned window. In order to improve the supporting strength of the jig 2 to the rubber frame during assembly, a support frame 222 is further provided in the second rectangular through hole 221. The support frame 222 is connected to the inner wall of the second rectangular through hole 221 through a first connecting portion 2221, a second connecting portion 2222, a third connecting portion 2223 and a fourth connecting portion 2224. Furthermore, the first connecting portion 2221 and the second connecting portion 2222 are respectively connected to the inner wall of the long side of the second rectangular through hole 221, and the third connecting portion 2223 and the fourth connecting portion 2224 are respectively connected to the inner wall of the wide side of the second rectangular through hole 221.

[0036] Specifically, if Figure 3As shown, the first pressing plate 41 and the second pressing plate 42 of this embodiment are arranged relative to each other and are used together to squeeze the two long sides of the rubber frame; the third pressing plate 43 and the fourth pressing plate 44 are arranged relative to each other and are used together to squeeze the two short sides of the rubber frame. The first pressing plate 41 is provided with a first groove for avoiding the first connecting portion 2221, the second pressing plate 42 is provided with a second groove for avoiding the second connecting portion 2222, the third pressing plate 43 is provided with a third groove for avoiding the third connecting portion 2223, and the fourth pressing plate 44 is provided with a fourth groove for avoiding the fourth connecting portion 2224, so that the four pressing plates can smoothly rise in the window to contact the rubber frame. Preferably, the four pressing plates are all thin at the top and thick at the bottom. Specifically, taking the first pressing plate 41 as an example, the part where the first pressing plate 41 is connected to the second power source 34 is thicker to ensure its strength, and the part of the first pressing plate 41 used to squeeze the rubber frame is as thin as possible while meeting the strength requirements, so that it can be easily pulled out from between the rubber frame and the aerogel 10.

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, the jig 2 of this embodiment can be provided with 4 to 8 windows, with the windows arranged in two rows, thereby improving the efficiency of the aerogel 10 press-packing.

[0038] Combine Figure 3 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, when the fixture 2 is positioned on the lifting mechanism, each window contains a first pressure plate 41, a second pressure plate 42, a third pressure plate 43, and a fourth pressure plate 44. Multiple first pressure plates 41 are connected via a first connector 71 and then to the second power source 34. Multiple second pressure plates 42 are connected via a second connector 72 and then to the third power source 35. Multiple third pressure plates 43 are connected via a third connector 73 and then to the fourth power source 36. Multiple fourth pressure plates 44 are connected via a fourth connector 74 and then to the fifth power source 37. This solution reduces the number of power sources, saves costs, and reduces the size of the equipment.

[0039] Specifically, the first power source 31 , the second power source 34 , the third power source 35 , the fourth power source 36 , and the fifth power source 37 are air cylinders.

[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the robot arm 5 of this embodiment can place the aerogel 10 in the gel frame by sucking the aerogel 10 through the suction cup 6 .

[0041] In summary, the working process of the aerogel pressing device of this embodiment is as follows: the aerogel pressing device is embedded in the double-speed chain (taking the double-speed chain as an example, it can also be embedded in the belt conveyor), and the frame and the lifting mechanism are both located below the double-speed chain; when the jig 2 equipped with the rubber frame runs above the lifting mechanism on the double-speed chain, the first power source 31 drives the lifting plate 32 to rise so that the multiple top columns 33 lift the jig 2. At the same time, the first pressing plate 41, the second pressing plate 42, the third pressing plate 43 and the fourth pressing plate 44 also penetrate into the window respectively, and the second power source 34, the third power source 35, the fourth power source 36 and the fifth power source 37 respectively drive the corresponding pressing plates to move the rubber frame correspondingly. The edge is pressed onto the inner wall of the first rectangular through hole 211 of the jig 2; the manipulator 5 presses the sucked aerogel 10 into the corresponding glue frame; the first power source 31 drives the lifting plate 32 to descend, and at the same time, the four cylinders of the second power source 34, the third power source 35, the fourth power source 36 and the fifth power source 37 are all deflated to release the pressure on the glue frame. When the lifting plate 32 descends to the jig 2 and contacts the speed chain, the first power source 31 continues to drive the lifting mechanism to descend, so that the jig 2 is separated from the top column 33 and the four pressure plates are separated from the glue frame. Subsequently, the jig 2 is transferred to the next workstation by the speed chain, and the next jig 2 is transferred to the top of the lifting mechanism, and the above process is repeated.

[0042] The present invention uses specific embodiments to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method and core idea of ​​the present invention. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the idea of ​​the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
