Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of visual dispensing machine technology, specifically to a visual dispensing machine with dual-color marking for tray partitions. Background Technology
[0002] The vision dispensing machine with dual-color marking for slot partitions is a dispensing device that integrates high-precision vision recognition and positioning technology. It is mainly used for precise dispensing on workpieces with dual-color marking for slot partitions. Different dispensing parameters and paths can be set for different slot partitions, and it supports multiple dispensing modes, such as dotting, straight lines, drawing arcs, and drawing irregular curves.
[0003] For existing vision dispensing machines, the device has a replaceable dispensing tube, and the operator can replace it with different sizes of dispensing tubes as needed, so that the dispensing machine can extrude adhesive of different thicknesses. However, the dispensing tube is usually directly sleeved on the dispensing head by friction. This simple fixing method is particularly vulnerable to adhesive pressure. As the adhesive generates a certain pressure during the extrusion process, this pressure can easily overcome the friction between the dispensing tube and the dispensing head, causing the dispensing tube to easily fall off the dispensing head during continuous operation. This not only affects the continuity and accuracy of dispensing, but may also cause adhesive waste and equipment damage. In severe cases, it may even interrupt the production process and reduce production efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a visual dispensing machine with dual-color marking of the tray partition.
[0005] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0006] A visual dispensing machine with dual-color marking for slot partitions includes a dispensing machine body, a dispensing structure, a snap-fit structure, a clamping structure, and an inflation structure.
[0007] The dispensing structure includes a glue tube, a dispensing head, and a dispensing tube. The dispensing head is fixedly connected to the glue tube. An installation head is fixed to the dispensing head, and the installation head has a flow channel for the flow of glue liquid. The dispensing tube is installed on the installation head.
[0008] The snap-fit structure includes an annular bladder, which is mounted on the mounting head.
[0009] The clamping structure includes a sliding sleeve, which is fitted onto the mounting head.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the snap-fit structure further includes an annular groove and a cavity. The annular groove is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the mounting head, the annular bladder is fixed in the annular groove, and the cavity is formed inside the mounting head. The annular bladder and the cavity are connected by a connecting pipe.
[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the clamping structure further includes a clamping ring, which is fixed on the inner ring of the sliding sleeve, and the top opening of the clamping ring is larger than the bottom opening.
[0012] As a further embodiment of this invention, the clamping ring is made of rubber material.
[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the inflation structure includes a sealing box and a sliding plug. The sealing box is fixed to the side of the dispensing head, and the sliding plug is slidably connected inside the sealing box. The sliding plug and the sliding sleeve are connected by a pull rod. The pull rod passes through the bottom surface of the sealing box and is slidably connected to the sealing box. The sealing box and the cavity are connected by a connecting pipe.
[0014] As a further embodiment of this invention, the outer surface of the annular bladder is provided with anti-slip texture.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0016] 1. Through the combined action of the clamping structure and the inflation structure, the connection between the dispensing tube and the mounting head becomes exceptionally stable. The traditional direct sleeve method is prone to causing the dispensing tube to fall off due to the pressure of the adhesive, while this snap-fit structure effectively avoids this problem. The design of the clamping ring tightly squeezes the dispensing tube during the downward movement of the sliding sleeve, generating sufficient friction to firmly fix the dispensing tube. In addition, the inflation and expansion of the annular bladder further enhances the stability of the connection. Its outer ring tightly presses against the inner surface of the dispensing tube, providing double protection for the dispensing tube and ensuring that the dispensing tube will not fall off even under high pressure.
[0017] 2. The snap-fit structure not only improves the stability of the connection but also significantly optimizes the sealing performance. The inflation of the annular bladder not only enhances the tightness of the connection between the dispensing tube and the mounting head but also acts directly on the inner surface of the dispensing tube, forming an effective sealing barrier. This design effectively avoids the leakage of adhesive during the dispensing process due to poor sealing at the connection point, ensuring precise control and efficient utilization of the adhesive. Therefore, while improving production efficiency, this snap-fit structure also greatly reduces waste and potential quality risks caused by adhesive leakage. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] like Figure 1-6 As shown, a visual dispensing machine with dual-color markings for tray partitions includes a dispensing machine body 1, a dispensing structure, a snap-fit structure, a pressing structure, and an inflation structure; the dispensing structure includes a glue cylinder 2, a dispensing head 3, and a dispensing tube 4. The dispensing head 3 is fixedly connected to the glue cylinder 2. An installation head 5 is fixed on the dispensing head 3, and the installation head 5 has a flow channel for the flow of glue liquid. The dispensing tube 4 is installed on the installation head 5.
[0028] The snap-fit structure includes an annular bladder 62, which is mounted on the mounting head 5. The snap-fit structure also includes an annular groove 61 and a cavity 63. The annular groove 61 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the mounting head 5, the annular bladder 62 is fixed in the annular groove 61, and the cavity 63 is formed inside the mounting head 5. The annular bladder 62 and the cavity 63 are connected by a connecting pipe 64. The outer surface of the annular bladder 62 is provided with anti-slip texture.
[0029] The clamping structure includes a sliding sleeve 71, which is fitted onto the mounting head 5. The clamping structure also includes a clamping ring 72, which is fixed to the inner ring of the sliding sleeve 71. The top opening of the clamping ring 72 is larger than the bottom opening. The clamping ring 72 is made of rubber. When the dispensing tube 4 is assembled, the inner ring of the dispensing tube 4 is precisely in contact with the outer surface of the mounting head 5. Then, the operator pulls down the sliding sleeve 71, causing it to move downwards until it is fitted onto the dispensing head 5. On the hose 4, a clamping ring 72 is provided on the inner ring of the sliding sleeve 71, and the top opening of the clamping ring 72 is smaller than the bottom opening. During the downward movement of the sliding sleeve 71, the clamping ring 72 will squeeze against the dispensing hose 4. When the sliding sleeve 71 is completely fitted on the dispensing hose 4, the top of the clamping ring 72 will be squeezed by the dispensing hose 4 and deformed. At this time, there is a sufficiently large friction between the clamping ring 72 and the dispensing hose 4, and this friction plays a role in fixing the dispensing hose 4.
[0030] The inflation structure includes a sealing box 81 and a sliding plug 82. The sealing box 81 is fixed to the side of the dispensing head 3. The sliding plug 82 is slidably connected inside the sealing box 81. The sliding plug 82 and the sliding sleeve 71 are connected by a pull rod 83. The pull rod 83 passes through the bottom surface of the sealing box 81 and is slidably connected to the sealing box 81. The sealing box 81 and the cavity 63 are connected by a connecting pipe 84. When the sliding plug 82 moves down, it can push the gas in the sealing cylinder into the cavity 63 through the connecting pipe 84. Furthermore, the gas will fill the annular bladder 62 through the connecting pipe 64, causing the annular bladder 62 to inflate. When the annular bladder 62 inflates, the outer ring of the annular bladder 62 can tightly press the inner surface of the dispensing tube 4. The pressing force applied by the annular bladder 62 to the dispensing tube 4 can not only provide double protection for the stability of the dispensing tube 4, but also improve the sealing performance of the connection between the dispensing tube 4 and the mounting head 5.
[0031] The working principle of this utility model:
[0032] The visual dispensing machine with dual-color marking for slotted areas proposed in this utility model has a replaceable dispensing tube 4, which is installed on the mounting head 5 of the dispensing head 3. When the dispensing machine body 1 is working, the adhesive is stored in the adhesive cartridge 2. During dispensing, the adhesive enters the dispensing head 3 and flows out through the dispensing tube 4, realizing the dispensing operation on the workpiece. For the dispensing machine body 1, a high-definition pixel camera captures images of the product with dual-color marking for slotted areas, and a light source provides sufficient illumination to the camera to ensure image quality. Subsequently, the image acquisition card converts the images captured by the camera into digital signals, which are then transmitted to image processing software for further processing. The image processing software uses edge detection, feature recognition and other image processing technologies to accurately identify the location where glue needs to be dispensed, as well as the partitions and two-color markings of the tray. It then converts this information into machine-understandable instructions. Next, the PLC control system receives these instructions and generates corresponding control signals to control the dispensing machine's actuators to perform precise dispensing operations. The actuators typically include dispensing valves, motors, cylinders and other components. Through precise motion control, they accurately spray glue to the target location. At the same time, sensors monitor various parameters in the dispensing process in real time, such as glue flow rate and dispensing speed, to ensure the stability and consistency of dispensing quality.
[0033] The dispensing tube 4 and the mounting head 5 are connected by a snap-fit structure. This snap-fit structure is driven by a clamping structure and an inflation structure located on the dispensing head 3. Specifically, the operator first places the dispensing tube 4 onto the mounting head 5. When the dispensing tube 4 is in place, its inner ring is precisely flush with the outer surface of the mounting head 5. Next, the operator pulls down the sliding sleeve 71, causing it to move downwards until it is fully fitted onto the dispensing tube 4. A clamping ring 72 is provided on the inner ring of the sliding sleeve 71. The top opening is smaller than the bottom opening. During the downward movement of the sliding sleeve 71, the clamping ring 72 will squeeze against the dispensing tube 4. When the sliding sleeve 71 is completely fitted onto the dispensing tube 4, the top of the clamping ring 72 will be squeezed from the dispensing tube 4 and deformed. At this time, there is a sufficiently large friction between the clamping ring 72 and the dispensing tube 4. This friction plays a role in fixing the dispensing tube 4. This fixing method replaces the traditional direct fitting method and can prevent the dispensing tube 4 from falling off the mounting head 5 under the action of glue pressure.
[0034] In addition, when the sliding sleeve 71 moves downward, it can pull the sliding plug 82 through the pull rod 83, causing the sliding plug 82 to move downward inside the sealing cylinder. When the sliding plug 82 moves downward, it can force the gas in the sealing cylinder into the cavity 63 through the connecting pipe 84. Furthermore, the gas will fill the annular bladder 62 through the connecting pipe 64, causing the annular bladder 62 to inflate. When the annular bladder 62 inflates, the outer ring of the annular bladder 62 can tightly press the inner surface of the dispensing tube 4. The clamping force applied by the annular bladder 62 to the dispensing tube 4 can not only provide double protection for the stability of the dispensing tube 4, but also improve the sealing performance of the connection between the dispensing tube 4 and the mounting head 5, and prevent the glue from leaking.
[0035] The above description provides a detailed account of one embodiment of the present invention. However, this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. All equivalent variations and improvements made within the scope of the claims of the present invention should still fall within the patent coverage of the present invention.
