[0040] In vehicle production, glass adhesive coating equipment is typically used to apply adhesive to the glass and transport it. During actual production, researchers have found that traditional glass adhesive coating equipment requires multiple devices and associated robotic arms to work together to apply adhesive and transport the glass. This increases equipment investment costs, and the coordination between these devices and robotic arms also affects the efficiency of the glass adhesive coating equipment.
[0041] This utility model proposes a glass coating equipment, aiming to solve the technical problems of high production cost and low operating efficiency in glass coating equipment.

This allows the robot arm 4 to be connected to the glue gun 120 to drive the glue gun 120 to move, and to be connected to the glass adsorption device 2 to drive the glass adsorption device 2 to move. This can reduce the manufacturing cost of glass coating equipment and improve work efficiency. In this embodiment, the gun body 121 is provided with a first flange 1212, the bracket 210 is provided with a second flange 212, and the robot arm 4 is provided with a third flange. Both the first flange 1212 and the second flange 212 can be connected to the third flange.

This glass coating equipment features a first flange 1212 on the glue gun 120, a second flange 212 on the support 210, and a third flange on the robotic arm 4. This allows the robotic arm 4 to drive the glue gun 120 and the glass adsorption device 2 forward and backward, completing the glass coating and transfer operations. This reduces the number of parts in the glass coating equipment, lowering production costs. Furthermore, by using a single robotic arm 4 to drive the glue gun 120 and the glass adsorption device 2 forward and backward, the coordination of multiple devices is eliminated, saving production time and improving operational efficiency. This glass coating equipment is applicable in technical fields such as vehicle production equipment.

The gun body 121 is used to hold and heat the glue stick, while the nozzle 122 is used to dispense glue. The cleaning mechanism 130 is used to clean residual glue from the nozzle 122. The bracket 210 is used to support and mount the suction cup mechanism 220; multiple suction cup mechanisms 220 are arranged in a ring on the bracket 210, which allows the glass adsorption device 2 to adsorb onto multiple points on the glass, thereby improving the stability of the glass adsorption device 2 when adsorbing glass. The driving component 221 can drive the corresponding suction cup assembly 222 to slide along the thickness direction of the bracket 210 to adjust the position of the suction cup assembly 222, thereby allowing each suction cup assembly 222 to adapt to glass with different curvatures, improving the versatility of the glass adsorption device 2, that is, increasing the applicability range of the glass adsorption device 2.
[0045] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5In one embodiment of this utility model, both the first flange 1212 and the second flange 212 include a first flange body 2121 and a connecting rod 2122.

Each drive unit can drive the corresponding positioning rod 320 to move, so that each positioning rod 320 abuts against the edge of the glass. In this embodiment, when the conveying track 3 conveys the glass to the processing position 310, the drive unit can drive the corresponding positioning rod 320 to move, so that each positioning rod 320 abuts against the edge of the glass, thereby positioning the glass and ensuring accurate glass positioning. In a specific embodiment, the drive unit can be a drive motor.

The cleaning mechanism 130 is used to clean residual adhesive from the nozzle 122. Specifically, it includes a drive assembly 131, a scraper rope 132, and a scraping assembly 133. The scraper rope 132 scrapes away residual adhesive from the end face of the nozzle 122, and the scraping assembly 133 scrapes away residual adhesive from the outer circumferential surface of the nozzle 122.

The first drive cylinder 134 drives the scraper blade 135 to move along the extension direction of the scraper rope 132, scraping away residual adhesive from the scraper rope 132 to clean it thoroughly, thus ensuring the cleaning effect of the scraper rope 132 when scraping away residual adhesive from the end face of the nozzle 122. In a specific embodiment, there are two scraper ropes 132, and the two scraper ropes 132 are symmetrically arranged. The first drive cylinder 134 can be a hydraulic cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder.
[0048] Please see Figure 3 In one embodiment of this utility model, the scraper blade 135 is provided with a scraping gap 1351, and the scraping rope 132 is accommodated in the scraping gap 1351.

By driving the two scraper blocks 1332 to move through the bidirectional drive cylinder 1331 to cover or detach from the outer circumferential surface of the nozzle 122, it has the characteristics of simple structure, which can reduce the manufacturing difficulty and cost of the glue gun fixing device 1.

The scraping grooves 1333 of the two scraper blocks 1332 can form a scraping hole with a diameter equal to that of the outer circumferential surface of the nozzle 122. In this embodiment, setting the diameter of the scraping hole formed by the scraping grooves 1333 of the two scraper blocks 1332 to be equal to the diameter of the outer circumferential surface of the nozzle 122 allows the scraper blocks 1332 to better cover the outer circumferential surface of the nozzle 122, thereby cleaning the residual adhesive on the outer circumferential surface of the nozzle 122 as thoroughly as possible. In this embodiment, both the scraping hole formed by the scraping grooves 1333 of the two scraper blocks 1332 and the nozzle 122 are circular. In addition, the nozzle 122 and the scraping hole can also be polygonal or other irregular shapes, as long as the shape and size of the nozzle 122 and the scraping hole are consistent.

In a specific embodiment, both the second drive cylinder 1311 and the third drive cylinder 1312 can be drive cylinders or drive cylinders.
[0052] The process of cleaning the nozzle 122 using the glue gun fixing device 1 is as follows: 1. The second drive cylinder 1311 drives the base 1313 to rise until the scraper rope 132 is flush with the end face of the nozzle 122. Then, the third drive cylinder 1312 drives the base 1313 to move horizontally towards the nozzle 122, and the scraper rope 132 scrapes away the residual glue on the end face of the nozzle 122.

In a specific embodiment, to improve the stability of the suction cup assembly 222 during sliding, corresponding slide rails and sliders can be provided on the suction cup assembly 222 and the support 210. For example, the suction cup assembly 222 is equipped with a slider, and a slide rail is provided at the receiving hole 211 of the support 210, with the slider slidably mounted on the slide rail.

[0057] Please see Figure 6 In one embodiment of this utility model, the suction cup assembly 222 includes a suction cup body 2221, an elastic element 2222, and a connecting block 2223 connected in sequence. The connecting block 2223 is connected to the driving element 221, and the elastic element 2222 can drive the suction cup body 2221 to move away from the support 210, so that the suction cup body 2221 is in contact with the glass. In this embodiment, the suction cup body 2221 is used to adhere to the glass to adsorb the glass.

In this embodiment, designing the adsorption surface of the suction cup body 2221 as circular or elliptical allows for better adhesion between the suction cup body 2221 and the glass, improving the adsorption effect.

Each negative pressure sensor 240 is used to measure the negative pressure value when the corresponding suction cup assembly 222 adsorbs the glass. In this embodiment, each vacuum generator 230 is used to extract air between the corresponding suction cup assembly 222 and the glass to generate negative pressure between the suction cup body 2221 and the glass, thereby improving the adsorption effect. Each negative pressure sensor 240 is used to measure the negative pressure value when the corresponding suction cup assembly 222 adsorbs the glass, so as to monitor in real time whether the suction cup assembly 222 adsorbs the glass securely. When the negative pressure value measured by the negative pressure sensor 240 is less than the warning value, the external controller will acquire the measurement data of the negative pressure sensor 240, and then control the glass adsorption device 2 to stop transferring glass in time based on the acquired measurement data.
