Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of gluing equipment, in particular to an automatic plasma gluing mechanism and a three-axis mechanism equipped with the mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Currently, many factories apply glue manually. Surface treatment prior to gluing is performed manually using activators and primers. This is difficult, complex, and leads to slow production cycles. Many uncontrollable factors can lead to uneven glue application, poor adhesion, or poorly controlled coating, resulting in undesirable areas of the workpiece being applied. Furthermore, manual gluing is difficult, time-consuming, and labor-intensive for large workpieces, resulting in slow production cycles. There are also examples of gluing mechanisms driven by three-axis robots. While this improves precision control of the coating area, the activation and primer phases still require manual operation, failing to fundamentally address the problem.

[0003] Therefore, in view of the shortcomings of the above-mentioned solution in actual production and implementation, an automatic plasma coating mechanism and a three-axis mechanism equipped with the mechanism are provided to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0026] 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.

[0027] Example 1: Figure 1 Figure 2 As shown, an automatic plasma gluing mechanism includes a mounting plate 1, a plasma spray gun 5 that can move up and down along the mounting plate 1 is installed on the side of the mounting plate 1, and a gluing mechanism is also installed on the side of the mounting plate 1. The gluing mechanism is located on the side of the plasma spray gun 5 away from the mounting plate 1, and the gluing mechanism corresponds to the position of the plasma spray gun 5.

[0028] A driving component 2 is fixedly mounted on the side of the mounting plate 1 , and a plasma spray gun 5 is fixedly connected to an output end of the driving component 2 . The plasma spray gun 5 is driven by the driving component 2 to move up and down along the mounting plate 1 .

[0029] A linear guide rail 6 is fixedly mounted on the side of the mounting plate 1 , a slider 7 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the driving component 2 , and the slider 7 is slidably mounted on the linear guide rail 6 , and the plasma spray gun 5 moves up and down along the mounting plate 1 through the slider 7 and the linear guide rail 6 .

[0030] A connecting plate 9 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the driving component 2 , and the plasma spray gun 5 is fixedly mounted on a side wall of the connecting plate 9 .

[0031] The driving component 2 is a cylinder. Specifically, the output end of the cylinder is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 9.

[0032] The mounting plate is fixedly mounted with a connecting frame, and the gluing mechanism is fixedly mounted on a side wall of the connecting frame.

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, the connecting frame includes two first side panels 8 arranged in parallel, one side of the two first side panels 8 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 1, and the other side of the two first side panels is fixedly connected through the second side panel 10, and the gluing mechanism is fixedly installed on the side wall of the second side panel 10.

[0034] Specifically, the first side plate 8 is fixedly connected to the second side plate 10 by connecting members such as bolts, and the first side plate 8 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 1 by connecting members such as bolts.

[0035] A space is left between the two first side plates 8 , and the plasma spray gun 5 is located in the space.

[0036] The gluing mechanism, i.e. the gluing gun, specifically includes a gluing valve, which is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the second side plate 10 , and a glue mixing pipe 4 is mounted at the bottom of the gluing valve, which corresponds to the position of the plasma spray gun 5 .

[0037] Example 2: A three-axis mechanism equipped with the above-mentioned automatic plasma gluing mechanism.

[0038] Specifically, the three-axis mechanism is a three-axis truss or a robot, and the automatic plasma gluing mechanism is installed on the Z axis of the three-axis truss or on the manipulator of the robot.

[0039] In the above embodiment, the plasma spray gun 5 is installed on a linear guide rail 6 and is pushed up and down by a cylinder for switching with the glue gun head. When the cylinder is pushed out, the plasma gun head is driven down and the plasma gun head is lower than the glue mixing tube 4. At this time, the plasma processing operation can be realized; when the cylinder is retracted, the plasma gun head is driven up and the plasma gun head is retracted above the glue mixing tube 4. At this time, the glue coating operation can be carried out.

[0040] The specific workflow is as follows:

[0041] 1) The plasma machine receives the start signal, the cylinder is pushed out to drive the plasma spray gun 5 to move downward, and the three-axis truss or robot drives the gun head to perform plasma surface treatment on the workpiece first;

[0042] 2) After the plasma treatment is completed, the cylinder retracts, the plasma spray gun 5 retracts above the mixing hose 4, and the PLC gives the glue machine a start signal to start gluing the workpiece.

[0043] 3) After the glue is applied, the gun head returns to the origin and waits for the next instruction.

[0044] This mechanism integrates plasma activation processing and gluing. Taking into account the workpiece processing path, cycle requirements, plasma and gluing process requirements, the overall center of gravity of the structure, the entire processing flow, and the motion trajectory, this device has been designed to be simple and adaptable to various working conditions. This structure adheres to the principle of bilateral symmetry, with all moving parts mounted in the center of the device to ensure bilateral symmetry. During the device's movement, unstable movement due to eccentricity is eliminated, significantly reducing the load requirements of the moving unit and indirectly saving costs. This device is suitable for both single-component and two-component glue guns, and has high compatibility. The mounting plate 1 of this device is bolted together, facilitating disassembly and subsequent maintenance.

[0045] Since plasma equipment is simpler and easier to maintain than gluing equipment, it does not need to be repaired or replaced frequently. Therefore, when designing the device, the plasma spray gun 5 is designed on the inside, and the plasma spray gun 5 is designed as a motion mechanism that can move up and down, which is more in line with design principles. The structure and principle of the gluing equipment are relatively complex, and the gluing process requirements are also higher. The glue gun is designed on the outside to facilitate maintenance and replacement of the hose and observation of the gluing status. Gluing equipment is generally divided into single-component gluing and double-component gluing. This device can be used for both single-component glue guns and double-component glue guns. It also conforms to the principle of left-right symmetry. The double-component glue gun is equipped with a mixing hose 4. The mixing hose 4 is a consumable material, and many of them may be replaced every day. The glue gun of this device is designed on the outside, which is very convenient for manual replacement of the mixing hose 4.

[0046] This device can be applied to any motion mechanism, such as robot motion mechanism, two-axis and three-axis motion mechanism, etc. It is suitable for a variety of working conditions and can realize point, line, arc and uneven trajectories, with very high compatibility.

[0047] The mounting plate 1 of this device is generally made of aluminum plate. Aluminum plate has the characteristics of light weight, easy processing, and not easy to rust. It is widely used in mechanical design. Automation equipment generally has lightweight requirements, and the application of aluminum is particularly important.

[0048] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
