[0032] Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 7 The present embodiment provides a novel nozzle cleaning machine, comprising:
[0033] A nozzle carrying jig 1 is used to clamp and position a plurality of cleaned nozzles;
[0034] A transportation module 2 is used to drive the nozzle carrying jig 1 to move between the nozzle taking and placing station and the nozzle cleaning station;
[0035] The first cleaning device 3 is located on one side of the nozzle cleaning station, and is provided with a first enclosing box 310 with an opening facing the nozzle cleaning station and a first cleaning assembly 320 arranged in the first enclosing box 310.
[0036] The second cleaning device 4 is located on the other side of the nozzle cleaning station, and is provided with a second enclosing box 410 with an opening facing the first cleaning device 3 and a second cleaning assembly 420 arranged in the second enclosing box 410.
[0037] The driving docking device 5 is arranged on the first cleaning device 3 and / or the second cleaning device 4, and is used to drive the first cleaning device 3 and the second cleaning device 4 to move close to or away from each other. When the nozzle is cleaned, the first enclosing box 310 opening and the second enclosing box 410 opening hold the nozzle carrying jig 1 located in the nozzle cleaning station, and an enclosed cleaning cavity is enclosed.
[0038] By using the nozzle cleaning machine with the novel structure, one station can be saved, the nozzle carrying jig 1 only needs to be placed in the nozzle taking and placing station, and the nozzle to be cleaned is taken and placed by manual or automatic equipment, and then is driven by the transportation module 2 to the nozzle cleaning station for cleaning, so that the space occupied by the nozzle cleaning machine is reduced, and the manufacturing cost is reduced.
[0039] In some embodiments, the first cleaning device 3 and the second cleaning device 4 are arranged in an up-down manner respectively, the first cleaning assembly 320 cleans the nozzle from the upper end of the nozzle, and the second cleaning device 4 cleans the nozzle from the lower end of the nozzle.
[0040] After the nozzle carrying jig 1 reaches the nozzle cleaning station, the first cleaning device 3 and / or the second cleaning device 4 are driven by the driving docking device 5 to move close to each other, so that the first enclosing box 310 opening and the second enclosing box 410 opening hold the nozzle carrying jig 1 located in the nozzle cleaning station, and an enclosed cleaning cavity is enclosed. In this way, the nozzle carrying jig 1 is located in the cleaning cavity enclosed by the first enclosing box 310 opening and the second enclosing box 410 without the need of an additional enclosing and fixing mechanism, the space occupied by the equipment is optimized, and the manufacturing cost is reduced.
[0041] Preferably, the height of the box body of the second enclosing box 410 is higher than that of the first enclosing box 310, and the volume of the second enclosing box 410 is larger than that of the first enclosing box 310, so that more cleaning waste liquid can be contained, and subsequent centralized treatment is facilitated.
[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 7The nozzle carrying jig 1 comprises a support docking plate 110, a connecting bottom plate 120, and a nozzle positioning plate 130. The support docking plate 110 is provided with a connecting groove for accommodating the connecting bottom plate 120. The connecting bottom plate 120 is used for clamping the nozzle positioning plate 130. The nozzle positioning plate 130 is used for accommodating a connected nozzle.
[0043] In some embodiments, the support docking plate 110 and the connecting bottom plate 120 are both large in area, and the number of nozzle positioning plates 130 is three. In this way, it is not necessary to set one transportation module 2 for each nozzle positioning plate 130, but one transportation module 2 is shared by the three nozzle positioning plates 130, thereby saving the setting of the transportation module 2 and reducing the manufacturing difficulty and weight of one whole nozzle positioning plate 130, and facilitating manual loading and unloading.
[0044] Please refer to Figure 7 The support docking plate 110 is provided with a docking step 111 corresponding to the first enclosing box 310.
[0045] Through the docking step 111, the opening edge of the first enclosing box 310 can be more tightly connected with the support docking plate 110, so as to prevent the cleaning liquid from splashing outside during cleaning.
[0046] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 7 , comprising a first guide assembly 6; the support docking plate 110 is connected with the first guide assembly 6; when the transportation module 2 drives the nozzle carrying jig 1 to move, the nozzle carrying jig 1 moves along the guide direction of the first guide assembly 6.
[0047] In some embodiments, the first guide assembly 6 comprises a slide rail connected with the rack 7, a sliding block slidingly connected with the slide rail, and the sliding block is connected with the lower end surface of the support docking plate 110.
[0048] In this way, the precision of moving the nozzle carrying jig 1 between the nozzle cleaning station and the nozzle loading and unloading station is improved.
[0049] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 6 , comprising a first detection assembly 8, the first detection assembly 8 comprises a first moving platform 810 and a first detection camera 820 installed on the power output end of the first moving platform 810; the first detection assembly 8 is arranged on one side of the nozzle loading and unloading station and adjacent to the first cleaning device 3.
[0050] In the process of moving from the nozzle cleaning station to the nozzle taking and placing station after the nozzle cleaning is completed, or at the nozzle taking and placing station, the first moving platform 810 drives the first detection camera 820 to visually collect and identify the one end of the cleaned nozzle on the nozzle carrying tool 1, to judge the cleaning quality, so that the finally cleaned nozzle is cleaned to meet the requirements.
[0051] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 、 Figure 5 , including a second detection assembly 9, the second detection assembly 9 includes a second moving platform 910, a second detection camera 920 installed on the power output end of the second moving platform 910; the second detection assembly 9 is arranged on the other side of the nozzle taking and placing station, and is adjacent to the second cleaning device 4.
[0052] In the process of moving from the nozzle cleaning station to the nozzle taking and placing station after the nozzle cleaning is completed, or at the nozzle taking and placing station, the second moving platform 910 drives the second detection camera 920 to move, to visually collect and identify the other end of the cleaned nozzle on the nozzle carrying tool 1, to judge the cleaning quality, so that the finally cleaned nozzle is cleaned to meet the requirements.
[0053] Through the reasonable distribution design of the first detection assembly 8 and the second detection assembly 9, when the cleaned nozzle is inspected, the nozzle positioning plate 130 does not need to be operated complicatedly, and the inspection can be completed comprehensively and conveniently.
[0054] Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 4 , including a frame 7; the driving docking device 5 is a linear driver, and the shell of the linear driver is fixed to the frame 7; when the driving docking device 5 is arranged on the first cleaning device 3 and the second cleaning device 4, the number of the linear drivers is two, and the power output ends thereof are connected with the first enclosing box 310 and the second enclosing box 410 respectively.
[0055] The linear driver can adopt a device such as a cylinder or an electric push rod in the prior art to output power in a linear reciprocating direction.
[0056] The number of the linear drivers is two, which can make the first cleaning device 3 and the second cleaning device 4 relatively far away after the cleaned nozzle in the nozzle carrying tool 1 is cleaned, to prevent the supporting docking plate 110 from interfering with the first enclosing box 310 and the second enclosing box 410, and to prevent unwanted friction and wear.
[0057] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5The second guiding assembly 10 is connected between the first enclosing box 310 and the rack 7, and the second guiding assembly 10 is connected between the second enclosing box 410 and the rack 7.
[0058] In some embodiments, the second guiding assembly 10 is a guide sleeve mounted on the rack 7, and a guide rod mounted on the first enclosing box 310 and the second enclosing box 410 cooperates with the guide sleeve.
[0059] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 、 Figure 6 The transport module 2 is used for driving the suction nozzle carrying jig 1 to move along the X-axis direction, and includes positive and negative directions along the X-axis.
[0060] In some embodiments, the transport module 2 includes a driving motor mounted on the rack 7, a synchronous belt and a synchronous belt wheel set connected with the driving motor power output shaft, and the support docking plate 110 is connected with the synchronous belt.
[0061] The first moving platform 810 and the second moving platform 910 are used for providing Y-axis direction and Z-axis direction moving power output.
[0062] In cooperation with the X-axis direction moving power provided by the transport module 2, the suction nozzles on the suction nozzle positioning plate 130 can be checked row by row during the process of moving from the suction nozzle cleaning station to the suction nozzle taking and placing station after the suction nozzles are cleaned. The first moving platform 810 and the second moving platform 910 do not need to use a high-cost three-axis moving platform, and the design is ingenious and reasonable.
[0063] The driving docking device 5 is used for providing Z-axis direction moving power output, and includes positive and negative directions along the Z-axis.
[0064] In the specification and claims of the present application, the words "comprise / contain" and the words "have / including" and their variants are used to specify the presence of the stated features, values, steps or components, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, values, steps, components or combinations thereof.
[0065] Some features of the utility model are described in different embodiments for the sake of clarity, however, these features can also be combined in a single embodiment. Conversely, some features of the utility model are described in a single embodiment for the sake of brevity, however, these features can also be described in different embodiments alone or in any suitable combination.
