Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of LED bracket production equipment, specifically a dust removal structure for switching LED bracket injection molds. Background Technology
[0002] The LED bracket consists of a substrate and a cup. After the substrate is stamped to its basic shape, it is sent to an injection molding machine to injection mold the cup. After completion, it is taken out to inspect the injection molding quality. If there are unqualified cups on the substrate, or if a cup falls off, it needs to be further processed as a defective product.
[0003] Based on the above description, the production of LED brackets involves multiple steps. Each device is relatively mature, but they are not integrated together. After each step is completed, the boards are collected and transferred to other devices for the next step, which is very troublesome. Therefore, the company has integrated the various devices and designed a complete production line.
[0004] This includes the injection molding process, and after injection molding is completed, there may be colloid residue in the mold core, or dust may adhere during mold switching. These impurities will affect the quality of the next injection molded product. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0022] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0023] Please refer to Figure 1-4 ;
[0024] The dust removal structure described in this utility model can clean the mold core after each injection molding process. In addition, this structure is part of the production line, but it can also be applied independently after the injection molding equipment. The specific structure includes a turntable device 11, on which at least two lower mold bases 12 are provided. An upper mold base 13 is provided corresponding to one of the lower mold bases 12. The upper mold base 13 should be set on the lifting frame, and the upper and lower mold bases 12 are in a vertical injection molding system. This part belongs to the prior art and will not be described in detail here. A cleaning device is provided on the outside corresponding to the other lower mold base 12.
[0025] More specifically, the cleaning device includes a multi-axis moving assembly 14. The moving end of the multi-axis moving assembly 14 is equipped with an air blowing assembly 15 and a brush assembly 16. After one LED substrate is injection molded, it is rotated out via a turntable device 11 along with the lower mold base 12, causing another lower mold base 12 to align with the upper mold base 13 for another injection molding. At this time, the LED support substrate that has been injection molded in the lower mold base 12 is removed by a material handling device in the production line. Then, driven by the multi-axis moving assembly 14, the air blowing assembly 15 and the brush assembly 16 pass sequentially through the lower mold core. The air blowing assembly 15 outputs a high-speed airflow to the lower mold core to blow away the surface dust, and then the brush assembly... Part 16 contacts the lower mold core to remove dust adhering therein. Preferably, the multi-axis moving assembly 14 drives the air blowing assembly 15 and the brush assembly 16 to reset, and then passes through the lower mold core again to perform a secondary cleaning, which can improve the cleaning effect. In addition, a detection camera 171 is fixed on the frame of the multi-axis moving assembly 14. After the cleaning operation is completed, the cleaning position is checked through the detection camera 171 to check the cleanliness. If the detection camera 171 shows that there are still impurities in the lower mold core, the above cleaning process is repeated multiple times. If there is no significant improvement after multiple cleaning processes, an alarm is sent to the control system to notify the staff to handle it.
[0026] This invention can effectively clean the mold core in the lower mold base 12 through the air blowing component 15 and the brush component 16. It can also perform secondary cleaning during the resetting process to ensure the cleaning effect. Finally, the cleaning position is observed through the detection camera 171 to ensure that it is clean and to avoid impurities affecting the finished product during injection molding.
[0027] In addition, since the detection camera 171 is located at the rear and in a relatively dark location, supplementary lights 172 are provided on both sides of the detection camera 171.
[0028] One embodiment of the present invention relates to a brush assembly 16, specifically including a fixed base 161, on which a plurality of drive motors 162 are provided. The drive motors 162 are longitudinally mounted and extend out of the fixed base 161, and a brush head 163 is installed at the output end of the drive motors 162. It should be noted that the multi-axis moving assembly 14 includes at least an X-axis module and a Z-axis module. The Z-axis module drives the brush assembly 16 to move up and down, so that the brush comes into contact with it. Then, the drive motors 162 drive the brush to rotate and sweep away the dust.
[0029] One embodiment of the present invention relates to the air blowing assembly 15, specifically including two extension mounting members 151. The extension mounting member 151 can be a bar or a flat sheet, as long as it can provide support. The two extension mounting members 151 are respectively provided on both sides of the fixed base 161 for installing the air tube 152. The side wall of the air tube 152 is provided with several air holes 153, and the air tube 152 is located on the front side of the brush assembly 16. The air holes 153 are inclined towards the lower mold base 12. Air nozzles are provided on both sides of the air tube 152 for connecting to the air tube. The air tube method has a simple structure, and the design of the air holes 153 allows for a larger airflow range, which is more conducive to cleaning.
[0030] Preferably, the extension mounting part 151 is provided with an adjustment slot 154. The bolt passes through the slot 154 and connects to the fixing seat 161. By setting the slot 154, not only can the extension distance of the extension mounting part 151 be adjusted, that is, the distance between the air tube and the brush, but also the angle can be rotated around the bolt as the center, that is, the orientation angle of the air hole 153 can be adjusted. Finally, the extension mounting part 151 is pressed and fixed by locking the bolt and the fixing seat 161. This design facilitates installation, debugging and adjustment according to different products.
[0031] Additionally, a second inspection camera 182 is included. The second inspection camera 182 is mounted on the multi-axis moving assembly 14 via an extension mounting piece 181. As mentioned above, this structure is integrated into the production line. Therefore, a feeding device will place the substrate into the lower mold base 12. To ensure the accurate position of the substrate in the lower mold base 12, the second inspection camera 182 will inspect the position of the substrate in the lower mold base 12 until the placement meets the requirements. Furthermore, the entire production line also has a defective product handling device. Therefore, the second inspection camera 182 will inspect the position of the substrate during feeding and inspect the cup after injection molding during unloading. If a defective product is found, it will proceed to the next step of processing.
[0032] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
[0033] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style of the specification is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other implementations that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
