Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vacuum coating, in particular to a coating material transport vehicle. Background Art
[0002] At present, evaporation coating technology, as an important surface treatment technology, has been widely used in many industries, such as electronic products, optical devices, new energy materials, building materials, and packaging decoration.
[0003] Evaporation coating technology heats the coating material, causing it to evaporate and deposit onto the surface of the substrate to form a thin film, thereby giving the substrate specific functionality and aesthetics.
[0004] As the domestic manufacturing industry continues to become more automated and intelligent, the need for automated and intelligent coating workshops is also increasing. Traditional evaporation coating workshops cannot achieve automated material transportation, requiring manual transportation of various material carts.
[0005] As the market continues to increase its requirements for coating quality, the control of dust spots and particulate matter on the film surface has become more stringent. Reducing the number of people moving around in the workshop will help improve the quality of equipment production.
[0006] Traditional umbrella carts and material carts are mostly tray-type, meaning that each umbrella is supported by a tray, with multiple trays stacked on top of each other. This type of cart is extremely cumbersome for automated loading and unloading. To reach a specific umbrella on the bottom layer, the upper tray and umbrella must be removed. This means that loading and unloading the coating equipment with a traditional tray-type umbrella cart requires two carts to operate simultaneously, which complicates the process. The present invention solves this problem with a pull-out stacking structure.
[0007] For example, in optical applications, the workpiece is a square glass. Multiple pieces of glass need to be placed into an umbrella. The umbrella is typically a two-piece structure, with the workpiece sandwiched between them. The umbrella needs to be fastened securely. The mechanism that holds the workpiece in place is designed for automatic flipping during coating. The umbrella is then mounted on the umbrella frame system within the coating equipment. Coating is then performed within the coating machine. Automatic loading and unloading of workpieces on the umbrella is currently possible, but automated lowering and lowering of the umbrella within the coating machine remains difficult to achieve. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0023] In order to facilitate the understanding of those skilled in the art, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the embodiments and drawings. The contents mentioned in the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings.
[0024] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the present invention provides a coating material transport vehicle, comprising a vehicle body 1 and a storage cabinet 2 installed on the vehicle body 1. The storage cabinet 2 is a hollow structure with an opening on one side. A plurality of umbrella holding members 3 are slidingly arranged in the storage cabinet 2. The umbrella holding members 3 are used to support umbrellas 6 filled with materials; a positioning structure 4 is provided on the top of the umbrella holding member 3.
[0025] Specifically, the relationship between the vehicle body 1 and the storage cabinet 2 of the present invention is similar to that of a drawer. Specifically, several umbrella holders 3 are preferably arranged side by side within the storage cabinet 2. An external robot first pulls out an empty umbrella holder 3, then transfers the umbrella 6 to the holder 3. After positioning it using the positioning structure 4 on the holder 3, the holder 3 is pushed into the storage cabinet 2. The vehicle body 1 then moves, driving the umbrella 6 to the appropriate position. The next robot then pulls out of the storage cabinet 2 and removes the umbrella 6. This simple structure allows for rapid loading and unloading of umbrellas 6 in conjunction with an external robot.
[0026] In this embodiment, a sliding structure 5 is provided between the storage cabinet 2 and the umbrella holder 3. The sliding structure 5 includes a guide rail 51 and a slider 52. The guide rail 51 is mounted on the storage cabinet 2, and the slider 52 is provided on the umbrella holder 3. The slider 52 is slidably provided on the guide rail 51. The sliding structure 5 enables the storage cabinet 2 and the umbrella holder 3 to form a drawer-like relationship, so that the umbrella holder 3 can be easily pulled out and pushed in.
[0027] Specifically, the sliding structure 5 also includes a sliding pin 53 and a guide groove 54. The sliding pin 53 is arranged on the umbrella holding member 3, and the guide groove 54 is arranged on the storage cabinet 2. The sliding pin 53 is slidably installed in the guide groove 54, and the sliding pin 53 protrudes to the outside of the storage cabinet 2 after passing through the guide groove 54.
[0028] The guide groove 54 is a structure that penetrates on both sides, that is, the end of the sliding pin 53 away from the umbrella holding member 3 passes through the guide groove 54 and protrudes to the outside of the storage cabinet 2, so that an external robot can drive the umbrella holding member 3 to slide relative to the storage cabinet 2 by pushing the sliding pin 53.
[0029] In actual application, sliding pins 53 are provided on both sides of the umbrella holding member 3, and sliders 53 are provided on both sides of the umbrella holding member 3; at the same time, guide rails 51 are provided on both sides of the storage cabinet 2, and guide grooves 54 are provided on both sides of the storage cabinet 2 to ensure that the umbrella holding member 3 slides stably relative to the storage cabinet 2.
[0030] Specifically, a plurality of sliding structures 5 are arranged in parallel on the vehicle body 1 .
[0031] In this embodiment, the positioning structure 4 includes two shaft-supporting seats 41 . The two shaft-supporting seats 41 are spaced apart from each other on the umbrella-supporting member 3 . The shaft-supporting seats 41 are used to accommodate the rotating shaft 61 of the umbrella 6 .
[0032] The umbrella 6 has a rotating shaft 61, which is used to rotate about the rotating shaft 61 during vacuum coating, so that the products on the umbrella 6 can be coated on both sides. Therefore, the utility model utilizes the rotating shaft 61, and by accommodating the rotating shaft 61 on the supporting shaft seat 41 with an arcuate surface, the two supporting shaft seats 41 support the umbrella 6, so that the umbrella 6 is suspended and located on the umbrella support member 3, ensuring that the umbrella 6 does not contact the surface of the umbrella support member 3, thereby preventing contamination of the products on the umbrella 6.
[0033] Specifically, the positioning structure 4 also includes a plurality of positioning pins 42, which are all mounted on the top of the umbrella support member 3. The positioning pins 42 are used to insert into the positioning holes 62 of the umbrella 6 to position the umbrella 6. These multiple pins achieve secondary positioning of the umbrella 6. That is, the shaft support seat 41 achieves primary positioning of the umbrella 6 to facilitate placement of the umbrella 6 by the robot. After the umbrella 6 is placed in the shaft support seat 41, the positioning pins 42 will be inserted into the positioning holes 62 of the umbrella 6, thereby preventing the umbrella 6 from rotating and ensuring stability.
[0034] In this embodiment, the vehicle body 1 includes an AGV transport vehicle and a navigation module installed on the AGV transport vehicle.
[0035] In actual use, the navigation module includes one or more of magnetic navigation, QR code navigation, and SLAM laser navigation. This navigation module is a common structure used in AGVs. It primarily allows the AGV to move along a predetermined trajectory. Combined with the wireless module installed on the AGV, it can achieve flexible movement to the required equipment. It can adapt to a variety of front-end unloading and unloading equipment, facilitating the integration of multiple equipment in the workshop for automated operations.
[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not constitute any form of limitation to the present invention. Although the present invention is disclosed as a preferred embodiment as above, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any technician familiar with the profession can make some changes or modifications to equivalent embodiments of the above-disclosed technical contents without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
