Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sapphire crystal processing technology, specifically to an axial positioning and bonding device for sapphire crystals. Background Technology

[0002] During the processing of sapphire crystals, columnar sapphires need to be sliced. In order to ensure that the sliced ​​sapphires do not fall out, the sapphire columns need to be bonded to glass strips. Thus, after the sapphire crystals are cut, they will still be bonded to the glass strips.

[0003] In existing methods of bonding columnar sapphire crystals to glass strips, manual bonding is often used. During this process, the sapphire columns may not be accurately centered on the glass strip surface, resulting in tilting. This slight tilting of the sapphire crystal after the glass strip is positioned can affect the precision of sapphire slicing. Therefore, we propose an axial positioning and bonding device for sapphire crystals. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an axial positioning and bonding device for sapphire crystals, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an axial positioning and bonding device for sapphire crystals, comprising a carrier plate, an adjustment mechanism connected to both sides of the bottom of the carrier plate, a movable plate connected to both sides of the top of the adjustment mechanism, a clamping block fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the movable plate, an end plate connected to the bottom of the carrier plate, a groove formed on the top of the end plate, a bidirectional lead screw rotatably mounted in the inner cavity of the groove, matching lead screw sliders fitted on both sides of the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw, a servo motor fixed to one end of the end plate, the drive shaft of the servo motor movably passing through the end plate and fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional lead screw, and the top of the lead screw slider fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable plate.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, a glass strip is placed on a carrier plate and centered and limited. When the sapphire pillar is placed on the glass strip for bonding, a servo motor is started to drive the bidirectional lead screw to rotate, thereby driving the lead screw slider to move. This causes the clamping blocks on both sides to move closer to each other, thus achieving synchronous clamping and positioning of the sapphire pillar. This ensures that the sapphire pillar is centered and then bonded, which helps improve the accuracy of bonding and avoids misalignment between the sapphire and the glass strip. This, in turn, helps ensure the accuracy of subsequent sapphire slicing.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a limiting groove is provided at the bottom of the carrier plate, and a matching limiting slider is inserted into both sides of the inner cavity of the limiting groove. The bottom of the limiting slider is fixedly connected to the middle of the top of the corresponding end plate.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, when the limiting slider is pulled and slids within the limiting groove, the adjustment mechanism as a whole can be adjusted to change its position, thereby enabling it to adapt to different positions of different sapphires for clamping and positioning, which is beneficial to further improve its adaptability during use.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, arc-shaped grooves are provided on the side walls of the two clamping blocks that are close to each other.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the arc-shaped groove design ensures a high degree of clamping fit when holding columnar sapphire, which in turn helps to improve the stability during bonding.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a support plate is fixed to the end side wall of the carrier plate, and a base plate is fixedly connected to the tail ends of the two support plates on the same side.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the support plate and the base plate can provide support for the carrier plate, which helps to improve the convenience of use.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a centrally located limiting groove is provided on the top of the carrier plate.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the limiting groove ensures accurate centering and limiting of the glass strip.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] The sapphire crystal axial positioning and bonding device of this application can drive the clamping blocks on both sides to move closer to each other through the adjustment mechanism, and drive the lead screw sliders on both sides to move synchronously through a single servo motor, thereby achieving synchronous clamping from both sides. This can effectively ensure the sapphire column is centered relative to the glass strip, thereby ensuring the accuracy of bonding and avoiding tilting, which in turn helps to avoid affecting the processing accuracy due to tilting.

[0017] Pulling the limit slider allows the adjustment mechanism to move, thereby adjusting the position of the clamping block along the length of the carrier plate. This helps to accommodate sapphire pillars of different lengths and position them at different locations during bonding, improving the adaptability of the device. Attached Figure Description

[0026] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution: an axial positioning and bonding device for sapphire crystals, including a carrier plate 1, an adjustment mechanism 2 connected to both sides of the bottom of the carrier plate 1, a movable plate 3 connected to both sides of the top of the adjustment mechanism 2, a clamping block 31 fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the movable plate 3, an end plate 21 connected to the bottom of the carrier plate 1, a sliding groove opened at the top of the end plate 21, a bidirectional lead screw 23 rotatably installed in the inner cavity of the sliding groove, a matching lead screw slider 24 fitted on both sides of the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw 23, a servo motor 22 fixed at one end of the end plate 21, the transmission shaft of the servo motor 22 movably passing through the end plate 21 and fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional lead screw 23, and the top of the lead screw slider 24 fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable plate 3;

[0027] In practical use, the glass strip is placed on the carrier plate 1 and centered. When the sapphire pillar is placed on the glass strip for bonding, the servo motor 22 is started to drive the bidirectional lead screw 23 to rotate, thereby driving the lead screw slider 24 to move. This causes the clamping blocks 31 on both sides to move closer to each other, thereby achieving synchronous clamping and positioning of the sapphire pillar. This allows the sapphire pillar to be centered and then bonded, which helps to improve the accuracy of bonding and avoids misalignment between the sapphire and the glass strip. This, in turn, helps to ensure the accuracy of the sapphire slicing in the later stage.

[0028] Furthermore, a centrally located limiting groove 11 is provided on the top of the carrier plate 1. The setting of the limiting groove 11 ensures that the glass strip is accurately centered and limited.

[0029] Furthermore, a support plate 14 is fixed to the end side wall of the carrier plate 1, and a base plate 15 is fixedly connected to the tail ends of the two support plates 14 on the same side. The arrangement of the support plate 14 and the base plate 15 enables the carrier plate 1 to be supported, which is beneficial to improving the convenience of use.

[0030] It is worth mentioning that the two clamping blocks 31 have arc-shaped grooves on their side walls that are close to each other. The arc-shaped grooves make the clamping fit high when clamping columnar sapphires, which helps to improve the stability during bonding.

[0031] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown; a limiting groove 12 is provided at the bottom of the carrier plate 1, and a matching limiting slider 13 is inserted into both sides of the inner cavity of the limiting groove 12. The bottom of the limiting slider 13 is fixedly connected to the middle of the top of the corresponding end plate 21.

[0032] When the limiting slider 13 is pulled to slide within the limiting groove 12, it can drive the adjustment mechanism 2 to adjust its position, thereby adapting to different positions of different sapphires for clamping and positioning, which is beneficial to further improve the adaptability during use.

[0033] The implementation principle of the axial positioning and bonding device for sapphire crystals disclosed in this application is as follows: In actual use, a glass strip is placed in the limiting groove 11 at the top of the carrier plate 1 for centering and limiting. Then, when the sapphire column is placed on the glass strip for bonding, the limiting slider 13 is first pulled to slide within the limiting groove 12, which drives the adjustment mechanism 2 to adjust its position so that the end of the sapphire is in the correct position. Then, the servo motor 22 is started to drive the bidirectional lead screw 23 to rotate, thereby driving the lead screw slider 24 to move, so that the clamping blocks 31 on both sides move closer to each other, thereby achieving synchronous clamping and positioning of the sapphire column. This allows the sapphire column to be centered and then bonded, which helps to improve the accuracy of bonding and avoids misalignment between the sapphire and the glass strip, thus ensuring the accuracy of the sapphire slices in the later stages.

[0034] Furthermore, the components included in this sapphire crystal axial positioning and bonding device are all general standard parts or parts known to those skilled in the art. Their structure and principle can be learned by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods. In the idle part of this device, all the above-mentioned electrical components, which refer to power components, electrical components, and the matching monitoring computer and power supply, are connected by wires.
