Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of auxiliary material application machine technology, and in particular to a planar assembly machine for irregularly shaped parts. Background Technology

[0002] A planar assembly machine for irregularly shaped parts is a device that automatically fits irregularly shaped parts to the corresponding positions on a target product. However, existing technologies suffer from problems such as low yield rates, poor consistency, and low efficiency in fully automated planar assembly.

[0003] Currently, the industry uses a combination of manual labor and fixtures to bond irregularly shaped parts. For parts that are easy to fit into fixtures, manual bonding is performed using tweezers to hold the material in place and gently maneuver it to achieve the desired fit. However, the defect rate remains high. Compared to fully automated equipment, manual bonding is inefficient, inconsistent, and has a high defect rate. Therefore, developing a fully automated planar assembly machine for irregularly shaped parts is essential. Utility Model Content

[0015] Furthermore, the irregular part planar assembly machine also includes a pre-positioning device for shoveling auxiliary materials. The pre-positioning device for shoveling auxiliary materials is a positioning vision system.

[0021] Furthermore, it adopts a large-lead ground ball screw, paired with an absolute servo motor and a CCD industrial camera, which solves the problems of low efficiency, poor positioning, poor consistency and low yield.

[0022] Furthermore, a 20-megapixel camera is used at the incoming location of irregularly shaped parts to facilitate the scooping up of these parts by the scraper, improving identification and reducing errors. The parts are then placed in a transfer position, where another 20-megapixel camera precisely positions them. To prevent slight displacement during suction cup operation, an additional positioning camera is added for final position detection. Once the target product enters the workstation, a 20-megapixel color camera confirms its current position.

[0046] The following detailed explanation uses specific examples:

[0047] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a planar assembly machine for irregularly shaped parts, including a frame and a feeding device and a pasting device 800 disposed on the frame;

[0048] The feeding device includes a material handling mechanism, a material tray moving mechanism 110, and a scraper mechanism 120;

[0049] The material handling mechanism includes a hopper 130 with multiple material trays stacked on it and a material handling robot. The hopper 130 is located next to the material tray moving mechanism 110. The material handling robot is equipped with two material handling suction heads 140 with a spacing equal to the distance between the hopper 130 and the material tray moving mechanism 110.

[0050] The tray moving mechanism 110 is used to supply the tray to the scraper mechanism 120;

[0051] The scraper mechanism 120 includes a scraper robot for scraping up irregularly shaped parts from the material tray and providing them to the material application device 800;

[0052] The applicator 800 is used to attach irregularly shaped parts provided by the scraper mechanism 120 onto the product.

[0053] In this embodiment, the irregular part planar assembly machine also includes a pre-positioning device 400 for picking up auxiliary materials. The pre-positioning device 400 is a positioning vision system. The pre-positioning device 400 is disposed above the transfer plate 160 and is used to position the irregular part on the transfer plate 160 before the material attaching device 800 picks up the irregular part.

[0054] In this embodiment, the irregular part planar assembly machine also includes a pre-positioning device 500 for scooping auxiliary materials. The pre-positioning device 500 for scooping auxiliary materials is a positioning vision system. The pre-positioning device 500 for scooping auxiliary materials is located above the material tray moving mechanism 110 and is used to position the irregular parts in the material tray before the scooping robot arm scoops up the irregular parts.

[0055] In this embodiment, the irregular part planar assembly machine also includes a material picking and positioning device 600. The material picking and positioning device 600 is a positioning vision system. The material picking and positioning device 600 is located below the material attaching device 800. The material picking and positioning device 600 faces the material attaching device 800 from bottom to top and is used to position the irregular part after the material attaching device 800 picks up the irregular part.

[0056] In this embodiment, the irregular part planar assembly machine also includes a material application positioning device 700, which is a positioning vision system. The material application positioning device 700 is disposed above the positioning fixture 220 and faces the positioning fixture 220 from top to bottom.

[0057] Specifically, multiple positioning devices perform multiple positioning operations in sequence along the order of the material scooping pre-positioning device 500, material picking pre-positioning device 400, material picking post-positioning device 600, and material attaching positioning device 700 to ensure the accuracy of attaching irregularly shaped parts.

[0058] In this embodiment, the irregular part planar assembly machine further includes an upper product device 310 mounted on the first conveyor belt 210, a lower product device 320 mounted on the second conveyor belt 230, and a guiding mechanism 330; the upper product device 310 and the lower product device 320 are respectively used to move products from the assembly line to the first conveyor belt 210 or to move products from the second conveyor belt 230 to the assembly line; the guiding mechanism 330 is mounted on the assembly line and is used to guide products to the position of the upper product device 310.

[0059] Specifically, the design of the upper product device 310, the lower product device 320, and the guide mechanism 330 is suitable for line-side operations.

[0060] The irregular-shaped part planar assembly machine provided by this utility model has a simple structure and stable operation. The core working components are a TBI grinding-grade lead screw and a Hikvision camera. When the product arrives, after the sensor detects that the product is in place, the product is moved to the positioning fixture 220 and fixed by the product loading device 310 or the first conveyor belt 210. In order to ensure the accuracy of bonding and improve the yield, when the scraper mechanism 120 picks up the auxiliary material, the pre-scraping positioning device 500 first takes a picture and positions the irregular-shaped part to confirm that the scraper can accurately pick it up and place it into the transfer station of the next transfer plate 160. The position of the irregular-shaped part on the transfer plate 160 is determined by the pre-scraping positioning device 400. At the moment when the bonding device 800 picks up the irregular-shaped part, in order to eliminate the relative displacement between the irregular-shaped part and the bonding device 800, a post-scraping positioning device 600 is added, which is the final positioning camera that determines the position of the irregular-shaped part on the bonding device 800, so as to improve the bonding accuracy of the equipment. After bonding is completed, the transfer suction head moves the product from the positioning fixture 220 to the second conveyor belt 230, and then the product unloading device 320 puts the product into the next section of the production line. Alternatively, it flows out from the connecting belt (i.e., the second conveyor belt 230) and enters the next machine to work, completing the bonding of irregular parts to a target product.

[0061] like Figure 5 As shown in this embodiment, the shovel robot includes two parallel shovel sections, the bottom surface of which is parallel to the material tray, for shoveling up irregularly shaped parts.

[0062] Specifically, the scraper lifts the irregularly shaped part from both sides of the bottom, keeping the part horizontal.

[0063] like Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the feeding device further includes a transfer mechanism, which includes a transfer plate 160. The transfer plate 160 has two grooves that match the shovel part. The transfer plate 160 is disposed between the shovel mechanism 120 and the material application device 800.

[0064] In this embodiment, the transfer mechanism also includes a rotating base 150, and multiple transfer plates 160 are arranged around the rotating base 150. The rotating base 150 is used to drive the transfer plates 160 to rotate from the position of the scraper mechanism 120 to the position of the material applicator 800.

[0065] Specifically, multiple transfer plates 160 are fixedly arranged around the rotating base 150. After the two parallel blades of the shovel are inserted into the grooves to transfer the irregular part to the transfer plate 160, the shovel is pulled out, and then the rotating base 150 rotates with the transfer plate 160 to the bottom of the material application device 800.

[0066] like Figures 7 to 8As shown, in this embodiment, the irregular part planar assembly machine also includes a product moving mechanism. The product moving mechanism includes a conveying suction head and a first conveyor belt 210, a positioning fixture 220 and a second conveyor belt 230 arranged in sequence. The conveying suction head is located below the positioning fixture 220 and is used to move the product on the first conveyor belt 210 to the positioning fixture 220 and to move the product on the positioning fixture 220 to the second conveyor belt 230.

[0067] Specifically, the product movement mechanism is designed for online operation.

[0068] In summary, this embodiment of the invention can efficiently supply the material tray to the material applicator 800 via a feeding device, and the scraper design has high versatility. It offers advantages such as high efficiency, high yield, good consistency, and the ability to operate both on-line and in-line.

[0069] Furthermore, it adopts a large-lead ground ball screw, paired with an absolute servo motor and a CCD industrial camera, which solves the problems of low efficiency, poor positioning, poor consistency and low yield.

[0070] Furthermore, a 20-megapixel camera is used at the incoming location of irregularly shaped parts to facilitate the scooping up of these parts by the scraper, improving identification and reducing errors. The parts are then placed in a transfer position, where another 20-megapixel camera precisely positions them. To prevent slight displacement during suction cup operation, an additional positioning camera is added for final position detection. Once the target product enters the workstation, a 20-megapixel color camera confirms its current position. After the positions of both the target product and the irregularly shaped parts are confirmed, the bonding process is completed, thus solving the problem of fully automated bonding.

[0071] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the appended claims.
