Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automation control technology, and in particular to an automatic dispensing machine for loading and unloading materials. Background Technology

[0002] A dispensing machine (also known as an adhesive applicator or glue applicator) is an industrial device that uses an automated system to precisely control the distribution of liquids (such as adhesives, inks, lubricants, etc.). It is widely used in electronics manufacturing, the automotive industry, and medical device assembly, and is particularly suitable for processes requiring stringent precision and consistency in adhesive application. Currently, semi-automatic dispensing machines still rely on manual loading and unloading operations. Processing efficiency is directly affected by the worker's skill level and work condition. Prolonged repetitive work can easily lead to operator fatigue, resulting in efficiency fluctuations and uneven adhesive application.

[0003] Therefore, there is a particular need for an automatic dispensing machine with loading and unloading capabilities to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

The second electric push rod is electrically connected to the controller, and the first support plate is fixedly connected to the piston rod of the second electric push rod. The first support plate is slidably connected inside the loading frame.

[0007] Furthermore, the material handling mechanism includes a material handling frame, a second support plate, and springs. The material handling frame is fixedly connected to the right side of the front side wall of the base. A material handling port is opened on the lower side of the material handling frame.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] Example: An automatic dispensing machine for loading and unloading materials, such as... Figures 1-6 As shown, the system includes a base 1, a glue storage tank 2, a water pump 4, a glue delivery pipe 3, a dispensing head 5, a worktable 6, a motor 7, a support frame 701, a first electric push rod 8, a cross suction cup frame 9, and a controller 10. Symmetrical support feet are welded to the bottom of the base 1 to ensure stability. The glue storage tank 2 is welded to the rear top of the base 1, and a glue inlet 201 is provided on the tank 2. The water pump 4 is bolted to the top of the tank 2, and the glue delivery pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the output end of the water pump 4. The dispensing head 5 is fixedly connected to the other end of the glue delivery pipe 3. A worktable is bolted to the front top of the base 1. The worktable 6 is bolted to the front wall of the glue storage tank 2. The front wall of the base 1 is bolted to the motor 7. The output shaft of the motor 7 is fitted with a support frame 701. The support frame 701 is fixedly connected to the first electric push rod 8. The first electric push rod 8 is rotatably connected to the front of the worktable 6. The piston rod of the first electric push rod 8 is fixedly connected to a cross suction cup 9 for adsorbing and transferring workpieces. The top left side of the base 1 is bolted to the controller 10. The water pump 4, the glue dispensing head 5, the motor 7 and the first electric push rod 8 are all electrically connected to the controller 10.

[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the loading mechanism includes a loading frame 11, a second electric push rod 12, and a first support plate 13. The loading frame 11 is bolted to the left side of the front side wall of the base 1. The second electric push rod 12 is bolted to the front side wall of the loading frame 11. The second electric push rod 12 is electrically connected to the controller 10. The first support plate 13 is fixedly connected to the piston rod of the second electric push rod 12. The first support plate 13 is slidably connected to the inside of the loading frame 11.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the material handling mechanism includes a material handling frame 14, a second support plate 15, and a spring 16. The material handling frame 14 is bolted to the right side of the front side wall of the base 1. A material handling port 1401 is opened on the lower side of the material handling frame 14. The second support plate 15 is slidably connected to the material handling frame 14. The top of the second support plate 15 is coated with an anti-slip adhesive coating. The bottom of the second support plate 15 and the lower side of the material handling frame 14 are connected by left and right symmetrical springs 16.

[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the remaining quantity detection mechanism includes a fixed rod 17, a float 18, a sensing module 19, and an alarm 20. The left side of the inside of the glue storage tank 2 is welded with symmetrical fixed rods 17. The float 18 is slidably connected between the two fixed rods 17. The sensing module 19 is bolted to the right side wall of the float 18. The sensing module 19 is also bolted to the lower left side wall of the glue storage tank 2. The alarm 20 is bolted to the front top of the glue storage tank 2. Both the alarm 20 and the sensing module 19 are electrically connected to the controller 10.

[0026] When a workpiece needs to be glued, first place the base 1 on a horizontal table, and place the workpiece to be processed into the loading frame 11. Then, start the second electric push rod 12 via the controller 10. The piston rod of the second electric push rod 12 pushes the first support plate 13 upward within the loading frame 11, lifting the workpiece to be processed to a predetermined height. Next, start the motor 7 via the controller 10. The output shaft of the motor 7 drives the support frame 701 to rotate, causing one side of the cross suction cup frame 9 to move above the loading frame 11. Then, start the first electric push rod 8 via the controller 10, controlling the piston rod of the first electric push rod 8 to move downward. After the suction cup on the cross suction cup frame 9 adsorbs the workpiece to be processed, control the piston rod of the first electric push rod 8 to move upward, controlling the output shaft of the motor 7 to continue driving the cross suction cup frame 9 to rotate, transferring the workpiece to be processed onto the worktable 6. Then, start the water pump 4 via the controller 10, and transport the glue in the glue storage tank 2 to the dispensing head 5 through the glue delivery pipe 3. The device 10 starts the dispensing head 5 and completes the glue application according to the preset glue amount. After the glue application is completed, the cross suction cup frame 9 re-adsorbs the processed workpiece. The output shaft of the control motor 7 continues to rotate and move the workpiece above the picking frame 14. The first electric push rod 8 is controlled to move downward. After the processed workpiece contacts the second support plate 15, the suction cup on the cross suction cup frame 9 releases the processed workpiece because the top of the second support plate 15 is coated with an anti-slip adhesive coating. As the number of processed workpieces increases, the second support plate 15 gradually presses down the spring 16 due to the load until it reaches the picking port 1401. The operator can then take out the processed workpiece. The float 18 in the glue storage tank 2 moves downward along the fixed rod 17 as the glue level drops. When the glue is about to run out, the sensing module 19 on the float 18 is aligned with the sensing module 19 on the glue storage tank 2 and sends a signal to the controller. The controller triggers the alarm 20 to remind the operator to add glue. The operator can then add glue through the glue inlet 201.
