Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automatic double-sided adhesive application for tracheal stents, and in particular to an automatic adhesive application device for tracheal stents. Background Technology

[0002] Tracheal stents are used to secure tubing and wiring, and are commonly found in new energy vehicles, such as... Figure 3 As shown, this product has an arc shape, and the inner arc needs to be covered with double-sided tape for attaching and fixing to new energy vehicles.

[0003] Because the double-sided tape is applied to the inner circle, current processes involve manual application. Workers hold the bracket in their left hand and the double-sided tape in their right, ensuring both sides are parallel and even, pre-applying each tape one by one. After pre-applying several, they press them firmly to ensure there are no air bubbles. Once a number are applied, the product is cut. Manual application requires ensuring the bracket and tape edges are parallel and firmly attached. The entire process demands skilled operation, is labor-intensive, and inefficient. It also carries a high risk of quality issues, as the tape edges are prone to misalignment, instability, and air bubbles.

[0004] Some existing automatic tape-applying devices only apply tape to outer circles, not inner circles. For example, comparative literature with application number 202222142829.8 discloses a contour-following tape-applying mechanism, including a base plate. This device solves the problems of difficult operation, worker fatigue, and incomplete tape application when the workpiece to be tape-applied is curved. However, this solution also has the following drawbacks: 1. The feeding method is manual, resulting in low automation; 2. The tape application method involves an external cylinder pushing a pusher block to move the device along the first slide groove, causing the rotating wheel to roll on the curved mold to complete the tape application, resulting in poor adhesion; 3. This solution cannot apply tape to the inner arc of the air pipe support. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an automatic adhesive applicator for tracheal stents, enabling automated adhesive application to the inner arc surface of the tracheal stent.

[0014] The material pushing assembly includes a contour groove and a material pushing cylinder. After the air pipe support slides down into the contour groove, it is pushed into the adhesive slide groove by the material pushing cylinder.

[0015] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the material sliding assembly also includes a first blocking cylinder and a second blocking cylinder;

[0016] As the air tube support slides down the sliding groove, it is alternately blocked by blocking cylinder one and blocking cylinder two; only one air tube support enters the contour groove at a time.

[0017] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the pushing component also includes a photoelectric sensor, which sends a signal to the pushing cylinder to act after sensing that the air tube support has entered the contour groove.

[0018] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the width of the contour groove at the end near the material sliding groove is greater than the width at the end near the adhesive sliding groove.

[0019] As a further embodiment of this invention, the ejector component includes an ejector cylinder, and the piston rod of the ejector cylinder drives the arc-shaped ejector rod to perform a circular reciprocating motion via a connecting rod assembly.

[0020] When the top rod moves forward, it pushes the air pipe support and sends the air pipe support to the pasting position; when the top rod moves backward, it resets.

[0021] The curvature of the top material rod is consistent with the curvature of the adhesive chute.

[0022] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the pressing component includes a pressing cylinder and a pressing roller. The telescopic rod of the pressing cylinder is connected to the pressing roller.

[0023] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a guide groove is provided at the opening of the adhesive slide groove, and the air tube support slides along the guide groove after entering the adhesive slide groove.

[0024] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the groove opening of the adhesive slide is covered with a pressure plate, and the position of the pressure plate is offset from the adhesive position.

[0025] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0026] 1. This utility model, by setting up a feeding component, utilizes gravity and cylinders to achieve automatic feeding, thereby reducing labor intensity, improving bonding efficiency, reducing costs, and improving the level of automated processing.

[0027] 2.

[0044] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar symbols denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model discloses an automatic adhesive applicator for a tracheal stent A, including: an electrical cabinet 700, an adhesive chute 500, a feeding component 100, a top-feeding component 200, a pressing component 300, and an adhesive supply component 400, etc. The electrical cabinet 700 serves as a support frame, and each component is mounted on the top surface of the electrical cabinet 700.

[0046] Tracheal stent A is the object to be adhered to with tape, and its structure is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the tracheal stent A is a fixing component for pipes and lines, which is usually used in new energy vehicles. The tracheal stent A has an arc shape and includes a stent foot A2 and a stent surface A3. The inner arc surface A1 of the stent surface A3 needs to be covered with double-sided tape.

[0047] The feeding component 100 is used to feed the endotracheal stent A into the adhesive groove 500; the structure of the feeding component 100 is as follows: Figure 4As shown, the feeding component 100 includes a sliding assembly 110 and a pushing assembly 120, etc., wherein:

[0048] The material feeding assembly 110 includes a material feeding trough 111 and a fixing rod 112. The material feeding trough 111 consists of two sliding plates, which are fixed to the top surface of the electrical cabinet 700 by a feeding bracket. The fixing rod 112 is fixed to the feeding bracket by a support plate. The material feeding trough 111 and the fixing rod 112 are inclined at 45° to the horizontal plane. The support feet A2 of the air tube support A can be manually placed one by one into the material feeding trough 111. The support surface A3 of the air tube support A is blocked by the fixing rod 112 and will not slip out of the trough. Under the action of gravity, the air tube supports A are arranged sequentially and neatly in the material feeding trough 111.

[0049] At the lower end of the material chute 111, there are two blocking cylinders, namely 113 and 114. When the telescopic plates of the blocking cylinders 113 and 114 extend, they abut against the fixed rod 112, and when they retract, they move away from the fixed rod 112.

[0050] Blocking cylinder 113 and blocking cylinder 214 are respectively fixed on the feeding bracket, with blocking cylinder 113 on the upper side and blocking cylinder 214 on the lower side. When the air pipe bracket A slides down the material sliding groove 111, the controller 710 controls blocking cylinder 113 and blocking cylinder 214. The working sequence is as follows:

[0051] When the blocking cylinder 113 retracts, the tracheal support A descends due to gravity and is blocked by the blocking cylinder 214. The blocking cylinder 113 then advances, blocking the tracheal support A above. The blocking cylinder 214 retracts, causing one support to slide out. The blocking cylinder 214 then advances, keeping the blocking cylinders 113 and 114 in their initial positions. This cycle is repeated, allowing one tracheal support A to enter the contour groove 121 each time.

[0052] The feeding assembly 120 includes a contour groove 121 and a feeding cylinder 122, such as Figure 4 As shown, the endotracheal support A slides down into the contour groove 121 and is then pushed into the adhesive chute 500 by the pusher cylinder 122. The contour groove 121 is spindle-shaped, with the width of the end near the slide groove 111 being greater than the width of the end near the adhesive chute 500. When the endotracheal support A slides down, it falls onto the wider end of the contour groove 121. A photoelectric sensor 123 is installed above the contour groove 121 and is fixed to the top surface of the electrical cabinet 700 by the pusher bracket. When the photoelectric sensor 123 senses that the endotracheal support A has entered the contour groove 121, it sends a signal to the pusher cylinder 122. The pusher cylinder 122 then actuates, and the telescopic rod extends to push the endotracheal support A along the contour groove 121. Guided by the gradual change in the width of the contour groove 121, the support moves from the wider end to the narrower end and is pushed into the adhesive chute 500.

[0053] The ejector component 200 is used to push the air pipe support A along the bonding groove 500, and deliver the air pipe support A to the bonding position 600; for example Figure 5 As shown, the ejector component 200 includes an ejector cylinder 210, which is mounted on one side of the side plate 240. The piston rod of the ejector cylinder 210 drives the arc-shaped ejector rod 230 through the connecting rod assembly 220 to perform a circular reciprocating motion. Specifically:

[0054] The connecting rod assembly 220 includes components such as a power rod 221, a connecting rod shaft 222, a bearing seat 223, a transmission rod 224, and a rod seat 225. The piston rod of the top-loading cylinder 210 is rotatably connected to the power rod 221. The power rod 221 is connected to one end of the connecting rod shaft 222. The connecting rod shaft 222 is rotatably connected to the bearing seat 223. The bearing seat 223 is fixed to one side of the side plate 240. The other end of the connecting rod shaft 222 is connected to the transmission rod 224. The transmission rod 224 is connected to the rod seat 225. The rod seat 225 is connected to the arc-shaped top-loading rod 230.

[0055] The stroke of the ejector cylinder 210 is adjustable, and the installation position is calculated to ensure that the arc movement trajectory of the ejector rod 230 is appropriate and will not cause interference. When the ejector cylinder 210 extends, it drives the connecting rod assembly 220 to move through the piston rod, which in turn drives the ejector rod 230 to move along the adhesive groove 500. The arc curvature of the ejector rod 230 is consistent with the arc curvature of the adhesive groove 500.

[0056] After the top material rod 230 enters the pasting groove 500, it pushes the air pipe support A and sends the air pipe support A to the pasting position 600; when the top material cylinder 210 retracts, the top material rod 230 resets when it moves backward.

[0057] The pressing component 300 is used to press adhesive tape onto the inner arc surface A1 of the tracheal support A at the adhesive position 600, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the pressing component 300 includes a pressing cylinder 310 and a pressing roller 320, etc. The pressing cylinder 310 is fixed on the side plate 240. The telescopic rod of the pressing cylinder 310 is connected to the roller frame 330. A roller shaft 340 is provided in the shaft frame. The pressing roller 320 is rotatably connected to the roller shaft 340. When the air tube bracket A is pushed to the pasting position 600, the pressing cylinder 310 drives the pressing roller 320 through the telescopic rod to press the tape onto the inner arc surface A1 of the air tube bracket A at the pasting position 600.

[0058] Adhesive supply component 400 is used to supply adhesive tape, which is used in conjunction with the endotracheal support A to complete the bonding process, such as... Figure 7As shown, the adhesive supply component 400 includes a tape reel 410, a guide wheel 420, and a guide wheel 430. The shafts of the tape reel 410, the guide wheel 420, and the guide wheel 430 are fixed on the side plate 240. The tape roll is placed on the tape reel 410. The tape is guided by the guide wheel 420 and the guide wheel 430 on the side away from the tape reel 410. When the tracheal support A is pushed to the pasting position 600, the tape corresponds to the inner arc surface A1 of the tracheal support A at the pasting position 600. The tape is pressed by the pressing roller 320, so that the tape is pasted on the tracheal support A.

[0059] The structure of the adhesive groove 500 is as follows Figure 8 As shown, the adhesive groove 500 is arc-shaped, and its curvature matches that of the endotracheal tube support A. The adhesive groove 500 is fixed to the top surface of the electrical cabinet 700 by a groove seat. A guide groove 510 is provided at the opening of the adhesive groove 500. After the endotracheal tube support A enters the groove of the adhesive groove 500, it can slide along the guide groove 510, which serves as a guide. Furthermore, a pressure plate 520 is also covered at the opening of part of the adhesive groove 500. The pressure plate 520 is offset from the adhesive position 600. The pressure plate 520 can better limit the endotracheal tube support A, and the endotracheal tube support A will not run out of the groove when the push rod 230 pushes the endotracheal tube support A forward.

[0060] This invention, through the cooperation of the adhesive chute 500, the feeding component 100, the top component 200, the pressing component 300, and the glue supply component 400, and the coordinated control of each component by the controller 710, can automatically apply the tracheal stent A, thereby improving the application efficiency, reducing labor costs, and enhancing the level of automated processing.
