Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of brake pad production technology, specifically relating to a surface marking device for wear-resistant automotive brake pad production. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the common production process for wear-resistant automotive brake pads mainly includes raw material preparation, material cutting, surface treatment, gluing, cutting and shaping, wear-resistant and additional treatments, quality inspection, coding, and packaging. Among these, the coding process requires the use of equipment such as UV inkjet printers to print codes, serial numbers, or the manufacturer's logo on the surface of the brake pads for anti-counterfeiting, traceability, and quality improvement. However, existing coding machines typically use a stepping conveyor belt to directly transport the brake pads, which leads to positional misalignment and misalignment with the coding machine when the brake pads reach the coding station, affecting the accuracy of the coding and requiring improvement. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a surface marking device for the production of wear-resistant automotive brake pads, which can effectively limit and transport brake pads and can be adapted to brake pads of different specifications, so as to solve the above problems.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a surface coding device for producing wear-resistant automotive brake pads, comprising a conveyor belt that moves from left to right in a step-like manner and a coding machine disposed above the conveyor belt. Several support seats are fixedly mounted on the conveyor belt at even intervals along its conveying direction. Each support seat has a positioning blind groove on its top and a limiting groove on its side that communicates with the positioning blind groove. Tension springs are fixedly connected to the sides of the support seats on both the upper and lower sides of the limiting groove. The tail ends of the two tension springs are fixedly connected to the same movable plate. A limiting block is fixed on the side of the movable plate corresponding to the through slot. The end of the limiting block away from the movable plate can pass through the limiting through slot and has an upward inclined surface. A bearing seat is abutted on the support seat. The top of the bearing seat has a bearing groove adapted to the brake pad, and the bottom is fixed with a positioning plate. A slot is opened on the side of the positioning plate. The positioning plate is inserted into the positioning blind slot. When the tension spring is in its natural state, the limiting block passes through the limiting through slot and is inserted into the slot. The printhead of the inkjet printer faces downward and each bearing seat can be located below the printhead of the inkjet printer.
[0005] Preferably, the positioning plate is adapted to the positioning blind groove.
[0006] Preferably, the slot is adapted to the end of the limiting block that is away from the movable plate.
[0007] Preferably, a pull ring is fixed on the side of the movable plate away from the support.
[0008] Preferably, a plurality of downward-facing UV lamps are provided above the conveyor belt on the right side of the inkjet printer along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt.
[0009] Preferably, a single-rod hydraulic cylinder is fixedly mounted above both the inkjet printer and the UV lamp, with the piston rod of the single-rod hydraulic cylinder facing downwards, and both the inkjet printer and the UV lamp are mounted on the bottom end of the piston rod of the corresponding single-rod hydraulic cylinder.
[0010] Preferably, both the inkjet printer and the UV lamp can be detachably mounted on the bottom end of the piston rod of the corresponding single-bar hydraulic cylinder.
[0011] Preferably, the top of the inkjet printer and the UV lamp are both fixedly connected to mounting blocks, the bottom of the piston rod of the single-rod hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to a mounting seat, a double-rod hydraulic cylinder is fixedly installed through the side of the mounting seat in the left-right direction, the tail ends of the two piston rods of the double-rod hydraulic cylinder are both fixedly connected to square locking frames, a mounting box is fixedly installed on the bottom of the mounting seat, the bottom of the mounting box is open, the mounting block is inserted into the corresponding mounting box, and the locking frame is fitted onto the outside of the mounting box on the same side.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: During inkjet printing, the conveyor belt moves in a step-by-step manner from left to right. First, the worker places the brake pad to be printed into the bearing groove of the carrier seat at the left end of the conveyor belt. Then, the conveyor belt, moving from left to right, transports it to the inkjet printer. The inkjet printer then operates, completing the printing operation. Afterward, the conveyor belt continues to move the printed brake pad forward. In this way, the bearing groove on the carrier seat effectively limits the brake pad's position, ensuring accurate delivery to the inkjet printer for printing. This avoids the positional misalignment and misalignment issues that occur when the conveyor belt directly transports the brake pad, significantly improving printing accuracy and ensuring the quality of the printing process. In addition, the bearing seat can be disassembled and replaced. Specifically: with the machine stopped, pull the movable plate away from the support seat to further stretch the tension spring, which will pull the inclined end of the limit block out of the slot, thus releasing the locking of the positioning plate. Then pull out the positioning plate to remove the original bearing seat. Then, release the movable plate, and under the return force of the tension spring, the movable plate and the limit block will automatically move back to the support seat. Next, after taking the new bearing seat, align the positioning plate on it with the positioning blind slot and insert it into place. During the process, under the action of the inclined surface and in conjunction with the tension spring, the inclined end of the limit block can be pushed into the limiting through slot until the positioning plate is inserted into place. The limit block can then be aligned with the slot. At this time, under the return force of the tension spring, the limit block can be automatically brought into the slot, thus locking and fixing the positioning plate. This completes the fixed installation of the new bearing seat, which is stable and does not affect subsequent use. This allows for easy assembly and disassembly of the support seat, enabling flexible replacement of the support seat with a matching support groove when the specifications of the brake pads change. It can meet the conveying needs of various brake pads of different sizes, has a wide range of applications, and is more flexible, convenient, and practical to use. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0023] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0024] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, a surface coding device for producing wear-resistant automotive brake pads includes a conveyor belt 1 that moves from left to right in a step-like manner and a coding machine 2 located above the conveyor belt 1. Several support seats 3 are fixedly installed on the conveyor belt 1 at even intervals along its conveying direction. The top of the support seat 3 is provided with a positioning blind groove 4, and the side is provided with a limiting groove 5 that communicates with the positioning blind groove 4. Tension springs 6 are fixedly connected to the sides of the support seats 3 on both the upper and lower sides of the limiting groove 5. The tail ends of the two tension springs 6 are fixedly connected to the same movable plate 7. A limiting block 8 is fixedly installed on the side of the movable plate 7 corresponding to the limiting groove 5. The end of the limiting block 8 away from the movable plate 7 can pass through the limiting groove 5 and the end is provided with an upward inclined surface 9. A support seat 10 abuts against the support base 3. The top of the support seat 10 has a support groove 11 adapted to the brake pad, and the bottom is fixed with a positioning plate 12. A slot 13 is opened on the side of the positioning plate 12. The positioning plate 12 is inserted into the positioning blind groove 4. When the tension spring 6 is in its natural state, the limiting block 8 passes through the limiting through groove 5 and is inserted into the slot 13. The printhead of the inkjet printer 2 faces downward, and each support seat 10 can be located below the printhead of the inkjet printer 2.
[0025] During inkjet printing, the conveyor belt 1 moves stepwise from left to right. First, a worker places the brake pad to be printed into the carrier groove 11 of the carrier seat 10 at the left end of the conveyor belt 1. Then, the conveyor belt 1, moving stepwise from left to right, transports the brake pad to the inkjet printer 2. The inkjet printer 2 then operates, completing the printing operation. Afterward, the conveyor belt 1 continues to move the printed brake pad forward. In this way, the carrier groove 11 on the carrier seat 10 effectively limits the brake pad, ensuring that the brake pad is accurately transported to the inkjet printer 2 for printing. This avoids the positional offset and misalignment problems that occurred when the conveyor belt 1 directly transported the brake pad, greatly improving the accuracy of the printing and ensuring the quality of the printing process. Furthermore, the support seat 10 can be disassembled and replaced. Specifically, with the machine stopped, pull the movable plate 7 away from the support seat 3 to further stretch the tension spring 6. This will pull the end of the limit block 8 with its inclined surface 9 out of the slot 13, thereby releasing the locking of the positioning plate 12. Then, pull out the positioning plate 12 to remove the original support seat 10. Then, release the movable plate 7. Under the restoring force of the tension spring 6, the movable plate 7 and the limit block 8 can automatically move back to the direction of the support seat 3. Next, after taking the new carrier 10, the positioning plate 12 on it can be aligned with the positioning blind groove 4 and inserted into place. During the process, under the action of the inclined surface 9 and in conjunction with the tension spring 6, the end of the limiting block 8 with the inclined surface 9 can be pushed into the limiting through groove 5 until the positioning plate 12 is inserted into place. Then, the limiting block 8 can be aligned with the slot 13. At this time, under the return force of the tension spring 6, the limiting block 8 can be automatically brought into the slot 13, thereby locking and fixing the positioning plate 12. This completes the fixed installation of the new carrier 10, and the installation is stable and does not affect subsequent use. In this way, the carrier 10 can be easily disassembled and assembled. When the specifications of the brake pads change, the carrier with the matching carrier groove 11 can be flexibly replaced, which can meet the conveying needs of various brake pads of different sizes. The overall applicability is wide, and the use is more flexible, convenient and practical. The conveyor belt 1, which moves from left to right, and the inkjet printer 2 located above the conveyor belt 1 can both use existing technology. Its specific structure and working principle are existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.
[0026] In this embodiment, the positioning plate 12 is adapted to the positioning blind slot 4 to ensure that the positioning plate 12 can be smoothly inserted into place.
[0027] In this embodiment, the slot 13 is adapted to the end of the limiting block 8 away from the movable plate 7, so as to ensure that the end of the limiting block 8 with the inclined surface 9 can be smoothly inserted into the slot 13, thereby achieving the snap-fit fixation of the positioning plate.
[0028] In this embodiment, a pull ring 14 is fixed on the side of the movable plate 7 away from the support base 3, so as to facilitate the movement of the movable plate 7 when the support base 10 is disassembled.
[0029] In this embodiment, several downward-facing UV lamps 15 are provided above the conveyor belt 1 on the right side of the inkjet printer 2 along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 1. This allows the brake pads after inkjet printing to pass under each UV lamp 15 sequentially under the stepping conveyor belt 1, thereby irradiating the brake pads after inkjet printing with the UV lamps 15. This enables the inkjet printing content to cure quickly, ensuring the adhesion of the inkjet printing content, etc., making it more practical. Existing technology can be used for the UV lamps 15.
[0030] In this embodiment, a single-rod hydraulic cylinder 16 is fixedly mounted above both the inkjet printer 2 and the UV lamp 15. The piston rod of the single-rod hydraulic cylinder 16 faces downward, and both the inkjet printer 2 and the UV lamp 15 are mounted on the bottom end of the piston rod of the corresponding single-rod hydraulic cylinder 16. This allows the distance between the inkjet printer 2 and the UV lamp and the conveyor belt 1 to be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs by extending and retracting the piston rod of the corresponding single-rod hydraulic cylinder 16, so that the distance better meets the requirements of inkjet printing and irradiation curing.
[0031] In this embodiment, both the inkjet printer 2 and the UV lamp 15 can be detachably installed on the bottom end of the piston rod of the corresponding single-bar hydraulic cylinder 16, so as to facilitate flexible disassembly and assembly of the inkjet printer 2 and the UV lamp 15, and to facilitate inspection, maintenance and replacement of the inkjet printer 2 and the UV lamp 15.
[0032] In this embodiment, mounting blocks 17 are fixedly connected to the top of both the inkjet printer 2 and the UV lamp 15. Mounting seats 18 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the piston rod of the single-rod hydraulic cylinder 16. A double-rod hydraulic cylinder 19 is fixedly installed through the side of the mounting seat 18 in the left-right direction. A square locking frame 20 is fixedly connected to the tail end of the two piston rods of the double-rod hydraulic cylinder 19. A mounting box 21 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the mounting seat 18. The bottom of the mounting box 21 is open. The mounting blocks 17 are inserted into the corresponding mounting boxes 21. The locking frames 20 are fitted onto the outside of the mounting boxes 21 on the same side.
[0033] This design allows for easy maintenance or replacement of the inkjet printer 2 and / or UV lamp 15. With the machine stopped, simply operate the double-rod hydraulic cylinder to extend its two piston rods, moving the locking frame away from the mounting box. This releases the mounting block's locking mechanism. Then, pull out the mounting block to remove the existing inkjet printer 2 and / or UV lamp 15. When installing a new inkjet printer 2 and / or UV lamp 15, simply align the mounting block with the mounting box and insert it. Then, operate the double-rod hydraulic cylinder to retract its two piston rods until the two locking frames are properly fitted onto the corresponding outer sides of the mounting box, locking the mounting block in place. This securely and stably installs the inkjet printer 2 and / or UV lamp 15 without affecting subsequent use. This allows for flexible and convenient disassembly and replacement of the inkjet printer 2 and / or UV lamp 15, making the entire device more practical.
[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
