Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automatic coating device technology, and in particular to an automatic coating device for industrial robots. Background Technology

[0002] A painting robot is an automated device used for painting operations in industrial production. It typically consists of a robotic arm, painting equipment, a control system, and sensors, and completes the painting process by receiving paint through a paint supply system.

[0003] In the application of organic solvent-based coatings, the traditional method involves using a water curtain in the spray booth to collect the overspray paint mist, then adding a coagulant to a circulating water tank to agglomerate the paint mist, causing the paint droplets to lose their stickiness and the paint residue to float or sink. This process is then cleaned periodically. However, since paint is easily soluble in water, and the overspray paint mist can be completely dissolved in water, using a water curtain for collection would not only result in a significant waste of water resources but also make the purification of the water after absorbing water-based paints very difficult, increasing both production and water treatment costs. Therefore, this invention proposes an industrial robot automatic coating device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

A rotary motor is fixedly installed on one side of the support base. The output end of the rotary motor is fixedly connected to one end of one of the rotating rollers.

[0007] A further improvement is that: a through groove is provided on one side of the liquid storage tank, and one side of the scraper is inserted into the inside of the liquid storage tank through the through groove; the shelf and the plastic sheet are parallel vertically.

[0008] A further improvement is that the spraying mechanism includes a paint pump, a delivery pipe, and a nozzle. The paint pump is fixedly installed on the back side of the liquid storage tank, and the input end of the paint pump is connected to the bottom of the liquid storage tank. A nozzle is fixedly installed on one end of the industrial robot, and the output end of the paint pump is connected to one end of the nozzle through the delivery pipe.

[0009] A further improvement is that a feed pipe is connected to one side of the top cover, and an end cap is threaded to the top of the feed pipe. A filter is installed at the input end of the paint pump.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: the two sides of the plastic sheet rub against each other with two rotating rollers, the rotating motor can drive one of the rotating rollers to rotate, so the two rotating rollers can drive the plastic sheet to rotate linearly back and forth. Excess paint will fall to the top of the plastic sheet. After the paint on the plastic sheet comes into contact with one side of the scraper, it will scrape off the paint, and the paint will automatically flow into the interior of the storage tank along the scraper.

A feed pipe 14 is connected to one side of the top cover 2, and an end cap is threaded to the top of the feed pipe 14. A filter 20 is installed at the input end of the paint pump 11. The paint pump 11 and the feed pipe 12 work together to draw paint from inside the storage tank 1 and deliver it to the nozzle 13. The industrial robot 3 adjusts the position of the nozzle 13 by rotating its joints, so that the nozzle 13 sprays paint onto various parts of the product. The filter 20 can filter the paint inside the storage tank 1 to prevent impurities from entering the feed pipe 12 and causing blockage.

[0020] The paint recycling mechanism includes a support base 6, a rotating roller 7, a plastic sheet 8, a rotary motor 9, and a scraper 10. A set of support bases 6 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the base frame 4. A rotating roller 7 is rotatably connected to the inner side of each set of support bases 6, and a plastic sheet 8 is connected between two rotating rollers 7. A scraper 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the base frame 4, with one side of the scraper 10 adhering to one side of the plastic sheet 8. A rotary motor 9 is fixedly installed on one side of the support base 6, and the output end of the rotary motor 9 is fixedly connected to one end of one of the rotating rollers 7. A through groove is provided on one side of the liquid storage tank 1, and one side of the scraper 10 is inserted into the inner side of the liquid storage tank 1 through the through groove. The shelf 5 and the plastic sheet 8 are connected to the plastic sheet 8. The plastic cloth 8 is positioned vertically parallel to the ground. The two sides of the plastic cloth 8 rub against each other with two rotating rollers 7. The rotating motor 9 can drive one of the rotating rollers 7 to rotate, so the two rotating rollers 7 can drive the plastic cloth 8 to rotate linearly back and forth. Excess paint will fall onto the top of the plastic cloth 8. After the paint on the plastic cloth 8 comes into contact with one side of the scraper 10, it will scrape off the paint. The paint will automatically flow into the interior of the storage tank 1 along the scraper 10. The scraper 10 is coated with nanomaterials to reduce the stickiness between the scraper 10 and the paint, making the paint flow more smoothly and automatically recovering the paint.

The drive motor 15 can drive the rotating shaft 16 at its output end to rotate. The two rotating shafts 16 are linked to each other by pulleys 18 and belts 19. The drive motor 15 can drive the two rotating shafts 16 to rotate synchronously inside the storage tank 1. The rotating shafts 16 stir the paint through the stirring blades 17 on the outer side, so as to prevent the paint from solidifying after being stored inside the storage tank 1 for a long time and affecting normal use.

[0022] This industrial robot automatic coating device involves two rotating rollers 7 rubbing against each other on both sides of a plastic sheet 8. A rotating motor 9 drives one of the rotating rollers 7 to rotate, thus causing the two rotating rollers 7 to rotate the plastic sheet 8 in a straight line. Excess paint falls onto the top of the plastic sheet 8. The paint on the plastic sheet 8 is scraped off when it comes into contact with one side of a scraper 10. The paint then automatically flows into the storage tank 1 along the scraper 10. The scraper 10 is coated with nanomaterials to reduce the stickiness between the scraper 10 and the paint, making the paint flow more smoothly and allowing for automatic paint recycling. The device does not consume a large amount of water during use and has low cost.
