Detailed Implementation

[0033] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 6The TPU film application device shown includes: an unwinding shaft 1, a conveyor roller assembly 2, a take-up shaft 3, a pickup assembly 4, an image acquisition unit 5, and a control unit. The unwinding shaft 1 is wound with a backing paper carrying several TPU films. The conveyor roller assembly 2 conveys the TPU films on the backing paper to a designated pickup position. The take-up shaft 3 rewinds the backing paper after pickup. The pickup assembly 4 includes a three-dimensional moving module 41 and an adsorption assembly 42 mounted on the three-dimensional moving module 41. The adsorption assembly 42 adsorbs the TPU films on the backing paper. The image acquisition unit 5 is positioned along the path of the pickup assembly 4 that transports the TPU films and is used to acquire the position of the adsorbed TPU films. The control unit analyzes the deviation between the actual position of the TPU films and the area to be applied, and adjusts the three-dimensional moving module 41 according to the deviation data to change the position of the TPU films. It should be noted that the TPU films on the backing paper are die-cut structures, and the die-cut TPU films are arranged regularly on the backing paper to ensure consistent spacing between the TPU films picked up each time.

[0035] The unwinding roller 1 releases the base paper, which is guided to the picking position by the conveyor roller assembly 2. The three-dimensional moving module 41 is activated, which drives the adsorption assembly 42 to move to the picking position to vacuum adsorb the TPU film. The three-dimensional moving module 41 continues to drive the adsorption assembly 42 to transfer the TPU film to the area to be attached. During the transfer, the image acquisition unit 5 acquires the position of the TPU film. The image processing module analyzes the deviation between the actual position of the TPU film and the area to be attached. The control module adjusts the position of the three-dimensional moving module 41 according to the deviation data, thereby changing the position of the TPU film to ensure the attachment accuracy.

[0036] By setting up the unwinding shaft 1, the conveyor roller assembly 2, the rewinding shaft 3, and the pickup assembly 4, automatic TPU film picking is realized. The position of the three-dimensional moving module 41 is adjusted in real time through the image acquisition unit 5 and the control unit, which ensures the adhesion accuracy of the TPU film and improves the overall quality of the product.

[0037] In this invention, the conveyor roller assembly 2 includes an upper guide roller group 21, a lower guide roller group 22, and a peeling platform 23. The upper guide roller group 21 is located above the peeling platform 23, and the lower guide roller group 22 is located below the peeling platform 23. The unwinding shaft 1 is located at the starting position of the upper guide roller group 21, and the rewinding shaft 3 is located at the ending position of the lower guide roller group 22. The peeling platform 23 is located at the intersection of the upper guide roller group 21 and the lower guide roller group 22. When the backing paper on the unwinding shaft 1 conveys the TPU film to the peeling platform 23, the pick-up assembly 4 picks up the TPU film on the peeling platform 23 so that the TPU film can be smoothly peeled off from the backing paper.

[0038] The peeling platform 23 is equipped with two limiting plates 24, which are located at the two side edges of the backing paper. The limiting plates 24 can physically constrain the backing paper, ensuring that its position on the peeling platform 23 is fixed, reducing the shaking or sliding of the backing paper during the peeling process of the TPU film, thereby improving the stability of the entire material handling process.

[0039] As a preferred embodiment, the upper guide roller group 21 includes a first guide roller 211 and a guide platform 212, with the guide platform 212 and the stripping platform 23 on the same horizontal plane; the first guide roller 211 is disposed at the feeding end of the guide platform 212, and the bottom of the first guide roller 211 is lower than the plane of the guide platform 212.

[0040] The bottom paper wraps around the bottom of the first guide roller 211 and enters the guide platform 212 at an angle, ensuring that the bottom paper can completely fit the guide platform 212; and the angled entry design can better adjust the tension of the bottom paper and avoid wrinkles or loosening of the bottom paper due to uneven tension.

[0041] As a preferred embodiment, the lower guide roller group 22 includes at least two guide rollers, and a tension regulating roller group 25 is set on the winding path of the bottom paper, which can monitor and adjust the tension of the bottom paper in real time during the winding process to ensure the uniformity and stability of the tension.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the three-dimensional moving module 41 includes an X-axis module 411, a Y-axis module 412, a Z-axis module 413, and an adsorption head assembly 414 disposed on the Z-axis module 413; the combination of the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis modules 413 can realize precise movement in three-dimensional space, and can accurately move the adsorption head assembly 414 to any specified position.

[0043] The adsorption head assembly 414 includes a main body and a cylinder disposed below the main body, with the adsorption component 42 disposed at the drive end of the cylinder. By driving the adsorption component 42 with the cylinder, the downward movement distance can be finely adjusted according to actual needs to adapt to TPU films of different materials and thicknesses.

[0044] In this invention, the adsorption components 42 are arranged in groups. The grouped adsorption components 42 can pick up multiple TPU films at once, and the spatial position is uniformly adjusted by the three-dimensional moving module 41 to avoid the cumulative error when attaching layers one by one.

[0045] In the preferred structure, the adsorption component 42 includes an upper connecting block 421, a lower connecting block 422, and an adsorption disk 423 disposed below the lower connecting block 422; the upper connecting block 421 and the lower connecting block 422 are detachably connected, the adsorption disk 423 is provided with a plurality of adsorption holes, the top surface of the adsorption disk 423 facing the lower connecting block 422 is provided with a cavity 423a, and the lower connecting block 422 is provided with an air hole communicating with the cavity 423a.

[0046] The upper connecting block 421 and the lower connecting block 422 are detachably connected, allowing the specifications of the adsorption plate 423 to be changed according to the size of the TPU film. The internal pores are connected to the cavity 423a. Through the several adsorption holes on the adsorption plate 423, the adsorption force can be evenly distributed, reducing adsorption instability caused by insufficient local adsorption force. Furthermore, the pores are located inside, reducing the complexity of the air path design, improving the system's sealing performance, and ensuring stable output of adsorption force.

[0047] In addition, the upper connecting block 421 and the lower connecting block 422 are provided with matching grooves and protrusions, and a locking shaft is provided on the upper connecting block 421, which extends into the groove and abuts against the protrusion.

[0048] The sliding groove and protrusion design allows the upper connecting block 421 and the lower connecting block 422 to be quickly aligned and connected, and the use of a locking shaft further secures the connection between the two. This structure facilitates the quick disassembly and installation of the adsorption assembly 42, greatly improving maintenance efficiency.

[0049] In this invention, the image acquisition unit 5 includes a camera and a ring light source. The ring light source can provide uniform illumination, reduce the effects of shadows and reflections, and make the light distribution on the surface of the illuminated object more uniform, thereby improving the image clarity and contrast.

[0050] This utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are only for illustrating the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of this utility model as claimed.
