[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This utility model proposes an automatic QR code affixing device. A preferred embodiment of the automatic QR code affixing device includes a frame 1, a QR code tape conveying mechanism, a QR code cutting mechanism, a QR code suction plate 2, a first barcode scanner 3, a second barcode scanner 4, and a battery cell transfer module 5.
[0025] The QR code tape conveying mechanism and the QR code cutting mechanism are arranged sequentially on one side of the frame 1. The QR code suction plate 2 is movably mounted on the top of the frame 1 through the suction plate translation module 6. The battery cell transfer module 5 is located near the end of the frame 1.
[0026] The first barcode scanner 3 and the second barcode scanner 4 are fixedly mounted on the top of the frame 1 near the suction plate translation module 6. The first barcode scanner 3 is used to scan the QR code information of the QR code tape, and the second barcode scanner 4 is used to scan and record the information of the battery cell 23 with the QR code affixed.
[0027] Specifically, the QR code tape conveying mechanism includes a rotating chuck 7, a first fixed roller 8, a glue preparation roller 9, a second fixed roller 10, a glue preparation lower pressure block 11, and a glue pulling claw 12, which are sequentially arranged on the frame 1.
[0028] The rotating chuck 7 is rotatably mounted on the frame 1. The first fixed roller 8, the glue preparation roller 9, and the second fixed roller 10 are rotatably arranged in an isosceles triangle on the frame 1. The glue preparation roller 9 can move up and down along the frame 1 to provide tension for the QR code tape. The glue preparation lower pressure block 11 can be raised and lowered on the frame 1 to press or release the QR code tape. The glue pulling claw 12 can be reciprocated back and forth on the frame 1 to pull out the QR code tape.
[0029] The frame 1 is vertically provided with a guide rail 13, and a slider 14 is slidably provided on the guide rail 13. The rubber preparation roller 9 is connected to the slider 14.
[0030] In this embodiment, a glue-pulling translation module 15 and a glue-pulling gripper cylinder 16 are provided on the other side of the frame 1. The glue-pulling gripper 12 is movably disposed on the glue-pulling translation module 15 and connected to the output shaft of the glue-pulling gripper cylinder 16. The glue-pulling gripper 12 is driven to reciprocate linearly back and forth by the glue-pulling gripper cylinder 16.
[0031] In this embodiment, the QR code cutting mechanism includes a suction plate pressure limiting block telescopic cylinder 17, a suction plate pressure limiting block 18, a blade telescopic cylinder 19, and a blade 20. The suction plate pressure limiting block telescopic cylinder 17 and the blade telescopic cylinder 19 are mounted on the frame 1. The suction plate pressure limiting block 18 is connected to the suction plate pressure limiting block telescopic cylinder 17, and the blade 20 is connected to the blade telescopic cylinder 19.
[0032] In this embodiment, a tape breakage detection sensor 21 is provided between the second fixed roller 10 and the glue-preparing lower pressure block 11.
[0033] In this embodiment, a discarded QR code tray 22 is provided at the end of the rack 1.
[0034] The following combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 The structure and working principle of the automatic QR code affixing device of this utility model will be further described in detail.
[0035] In this invention, the QR code tape is mounted on the rotating chuck 7, which has a certain damping, requiring a certain force to pull it. The QR code tape passes through the first fixed roller 8, the prepared tape roller 9, and the second fixed roller 10, and then passes through the tape breakage detection sensor 21 to reach the position of the tape-pulling claw 12. During operation, the tape-pulling claw 12 clamps the QR code tape and pulls it out to a set length. Then, the first barcode scanner 3 scans this segment of QR code to record information. At the same time, the suction plate pressing limit block 18 rises to the bottom of the QR code tape to support it. The QR code suction plate 2 moves above the suction plate pressing limit block 18 and is then driven by a cylinder to press down onto the suction plate pressing limit block 18, pressing the QR code tape tightly under cylinder pressure. Simultaneously, the prepared tape pressing block 11 on the left side also descends. After the QR code tape is fixed on both sides, the blade 20 rises and falls to cut the QR code tape. The QR code suction plate 2 is under negative pressure, which attracts the cut QR code and moves it up and horizontally above the right battery cell 23. It then presses down to stick the QR code onto the battery cell 23. The negative pressure is then turned off and the plate rises and moves to the desired position. After the battery cell 23 with the QR code is attached is scanned and recorded by the second barcode scanner 4, it is handed over to the subsequent station by the battery cell transfer module 5, and the next battery cell 23 to be attached is retrieved. When the adhesive gripper 12 pulls out a certain length of tape, the adhesive preparation roller 9 rises a certain distance due to the shortened tape length. The adhesive preparation roller 9 uses its own weight to maintain tension on the tape to prevent it from loosening. This gravity is insufficient to rotate the rotary chuck 7. The cylinder above the adhesive preparation roller 9 presses down (at this time, the tape on the right side is still pressed tightly by the adhesive preparation block and cannot be pulled). The rotary chuck 7 is then pulled and rotated to release a section of tape, and the automatic QR code applicator returns to its initial state. After applicating a QR code to one battery cell 23, the adhesive gripper 12 moves back to the right side of the adhesive preparation block 11, gripping the section of tape left after the blade 20 cuts. The adhesive preparation block 11 rises to release the QR code tape, and the adhesive gripper 12 pulls out the required length of tape again, beginning the cycle of the above actions.
[0036] During the above process, if the first barcode scanner 3 scans an incorrect or unrecognizable QR code, the QR code suction plate 2 will transport this section of QR code tape to the waste QR code tray 22, which will be manually removed after production is completed. The function of the tape breakage detection sensor 21 is to detect when the tape is pulled by the tape-pulling claw 12. If the tape breaks, the equipment needs to alert for manual intervention.
[0037] In this embodiment, the rollers, plates, and other parts that come into contact with the adhesive side of the QR code tape are all designed with a serrated shape to reduce the contact area with the tape and prevent them from sticking to the tape or losing their adhesiveness.
[0038] It should be noted that the power source for driving linear motion is not limited to cylinders or linear modules, and can be replaced with other linear motion mechanisms if the requirements are met.
[0039] The beneficial effects of this automatic QR code affixing device are:
