Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lens baking technology, and more specifically, to a baking device. Background Technology

[0002] Industrial ovens are general-purpose drying equipment with a wide range of applications. They can dry various industrial materials, such as the screen printing machine used in lens production to print on lenses. The printing material is ink, and after printing, an industrial oven is needed to dry the ink on the lenses.

[0003] The prior art disclosed in CN215551873 U is an optical lens screen printing ink baking oven, including an oven body, a controller connected to the oven body, and a temperature sensor disposed in the oven body and connected to the controller. The feature is that at least one lens carrying mechanism capable of being moved out of the oven body is arranged from top to bottom in the oven body. Existing baking devices usually require manual opening of the oven door and then placing the lens in the baking oven for heating and baking. This method not only results in low work efficiency, but also poor stability of manual handling. If the lens is touched by the oven, it may be damaged. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a baking device. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide a baking device to solve the problems of existing baking devices, which typically require manual opening of the oven door, and the poor stability of manual handling, which could damage the lens if the oven is touched.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

[0006] A baking apparatus includes a housing, a robotic arm, a door assembly, and an air duct assembly. The housing is connected to the door assembly. The housing contains a plurality of interconnected heating chambers. The air duct assembly is located on both sides of the heating chambers and is connected to the heating chambers. The robotic arm is located near the door assembly.

[0007] This setup automates the baking process by placing a robotic arm next to the door assembly. The robotic arm can perform up-and-down, forward-and-backward, and rotational movements to pick up and deliver materials, avoiding both the inefficiency of manually opening the oven door and the risk of damage when manually moving lenses. The air duct assembly ensures more even heating of the air inside the oven, improving the quality of the baked materials.

[0008] Furthermore, the robotic arm includes a vertical moving component, a horizontal moving component, and a rotating component. The vertical moving component is connected to the rotating component, and the rotating component is connected to the horizontal moving component. The material is placed on the horizontal moving component.

[0009] The multi-degree-of-freedom design of this setup allows the robotic arm to perform precise positioning and adjustment in three-dimensional space, ensuring that materials can be accurately transferred and placed while also preventing damage to the materials.

[0010] Furthermore, the vertical moving component includes a first driving part and a vertical moving plate, the first driving part being connected to the vertical moving plate, and the vertical moving plate being connected to a rotating component.

[0011] Furthermore, the vertical moving component also includes a support portion, which is connected to the vertical moving plate and the rotating component.

[0012] This setup can improve the stability of the connection between the vertical moving plate and the rotating component, thereby increasing the efficiency of material handling.

[0013] Furthermore, the support portion includes reinforcing ribs and a support plate, with the support plate located on the reinforcing ribs, and both the reinforcing ribs and the support plate connected to the vertically movable plate.

[0014] This feature improves the connection stability of the support.

[0015] Furthermore, the rotating component includes a rotating support base and a rotating part, the rotating support base is connected to the rotating part, the rotating support base is connected to the support plate, and the rotating part is connected to the lateral moving component.

[0016] Furthermore, the lateral moving component includes a material tray plate, on which an elastic limiting part and an ejection mechanism are provided. The elastic limiting part is located at the end of the material tray plate and close to the door assembly. The ejection mechanism and the elastic limiting part are used to place materials.

[0017] The elastic limiting part in this setting limits the material and works in conjunction with the ejection mechanism to prevent the material from falling and to accurately place the material in the heating chamber.

[0018] Furthermore, the door assembly includes a frame, a slide rail, a door body, and a drive component. The frame is connected to the housing, both ends of the slide rail are connected to the frame, the door body is disposed on the slide rail, and the drive component is mounted on the frame. The drive component is used to drive the door body to slide on the slide rail.

[0019] In this setup, the door assembly is driven by a drive unit to slide the door body on a slide rail, thereby opening and closing the door body. This avoids the problem of low efficiency caused by manual opening. The slide rail design makes the door body more stable and smooth during movement. The connection of the frame improves the overall stability of the door assembly. The arrangement of the frame, slide rail, door body, and drive unit makes the oven device more compact and easier to operate.

[0020] Furthermore, the frame includes a door frame and a reinforcing plate, the door frame being connected to the box body and the door frame being connected to the reinforcing plate.

[0021] By adding reinforcing plates, the strength of the frame is improved, and the spatial structure of the drive components and the door body is optimized, making the entire door assembly structure more compact.

[0022] Furthermore, the air duct assembly includes a fan, a first air duct, a second air duct, and a third air duct. The air outlet of the fan is connected to the first air duct, the second air duct is connected to the heating chamber, the third air duct is connected to the heating chamber, and the third air duct is connected to the air inlet of the fan.

[0023] This setting can improve the uniformity of air heating in the heating chamber and improve the baking quality of materials.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the baking device of this utility model has the following advantages:

[0025] 1) This utility model sets up a robotic arm next to the door assembly, which makes the baking of lenses more automated. The robotic arm can perform up and down, forward and backward, and rotation movements to complete the picking and delivery of materials. This not only avoids the low work efficiency of manually opening the oven door, but also avoids the problem of easy damage when manually moving lenses. In addition, the setting of the air duct assembly makes the air inside the oven heat more evenly, improving the quality of material baking.

[0026] 2) The robot arm of this utility model is designed with vertical moving parts, horizontal moving parts, and rotating parts. This multi-degree-of-freedom design enables the robot arm to perform precise positioning and adjustment in three-dimensional space, ensuring that materials can be accurately transferred and placed, while also avoiding damage to the materials. Moreover, this design structure is more compact.

[0027] 3) This utility model provides an elastic limiting part and an ejection mechanism on the material tray. The elastic limiting part limits the material and works in conjunction with the ejection mechanism to prevent the material from falling and to accurately place the material in the heating chamber.

[0040] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, a brief explanation of the orientations involved in the following specific embodiment 20 is provided: the directions or positional relationships indicated by "up," "down," "front," "back," "left," and "right" mentioned in the embodiments refer to the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0041] like Figures 1-10 As shown, this utility model proposes a baking device, including a housing 1, a robotic arm 2, a door assembly 3, and an air duct assembly 4. The housing 1 is connected to the door assembly 3. The housing 1 contains multiple interconnected heating chambers 11, each with multiple grooves 111, allowing materials 5 to be placed in any two opposing grooves. The air duct assembly is located on both sides of the heating chambers and is connected to them. The robotic arm 2 is located near the door assembly 3. This setup uses a robotic arm to replace manual labor in placing or removing materials from the heating chambers, improving work efficiency. The multiple grooves allow for the placement of multiple materials, increasing baking efficiency.

[0042] More specifically, door assemblies are connected to both the front and rear sides of the box, and correspondingly, robotic arms are installed on both the front and rear sides near the door assemblies. This arrangement ensures that the removal and placement of materials do not interfere with each other, resulting in high work efficiency.

[0043] More specifically, the housing 1 is provided with an exhaust port 12, which is connected to the heating chamber. On the one hand, it maintains the pressure inside the chamber, and on the other hand, it removes some toxic gases.

[0044] Specifically, the robotic arm 2 includes a vertical moving component 21, a horizontal moving component 22, and a rotating component 23. The vertical moving component 21 is connected to the rotating component 23, and the rotating component 23 is connected to the horizontal moving component 22. The material 5 is placed on the horizontal moving component 22. This robotic arm configuration enables it to perform horizontal, vertical, and rotational movements, allowing the material to be accurately placed inside the container and improving work efficiency.

[0045] More specifically, the vertical moving component 21 includes a first driving part 211, a vertical moving plate 212, and a supporting part 213. The first driving part 211 is connected to the vertical moving plate 212, the vertical moving plate 212 is connected to the supporting part 213, and the supporting part 213 is connected to the rotating component 23. The first driving part is used to drive the vertical moving plate to move. When the vertical moving plate moves, it in turn drives the material on the horizontal moving plate to move, thereby improving the material handling efficiency.

[0046] More specifically, the first drive unit 211 includes a first drive motor 2111, a lead screw module 2112, a module fixing plate 2113, a first drag chain plate 2114, and a first drag chain 2115.

[0048] More specifically, the support portion 213 includes a reinforcing rib 2131 and a support plate 2132. Both the reinforcing rib and the support plate are connected to the vertical moving plate, and the support plate is located at the upper end of the reinforcing rib. Preferably, the cross-section of the reinforcing rib is similar to a right triangle, wherein the two right-angled sides are connected to the vertical moving plate and the support plate, respectively. This arrangement can improve the connection stability between the vertical moving plate and the rotating component.

[0049] More specifically, the rotating component 23 includes a rotating support base 231, a rotating part 232, and a second drive motor 233. The rotating support base 231 is connected to the rotating part 232 and to a support plate 2132. The rotating part 232 is connected to a transverse moving part 22. The second drive motor is connected to the rotating part and is used to drive the rotating part to rotate. The second drive motor is fixed on the rotating support base, which improves the stability of the second drive motor. The rotating part is a conventional existing technology; as long as it can rotate under the drive of the motor, it can drive the transverse moving part to rotate, and will not be described in detail here.

[0050] Specifically, the lateral moving component 22 includes a material tray plate 221, a telescopic part 222, and a second drag chain 223. The material 5 is placed on the material tray plate 221, and the material tray plate 221 is placed on the telescopic part 222 and can slide on the telescopic part. One end of the second drag chain 223 is connected to the material tray plate, and the other end of the second drag chain is connected to the telescopic part. The telescopic part 22 is a conventional upper and lower telescopic structure. As long as it can drive the second drag chain to move back and forth, it can transport the material into or out of the box.

[0051] More specifically, the material tray plate 221 is provided with an elastic limiting part 2211 and an ejection mechanism. The elastic limiting part 2211 is located at the end of the material tray plate 221 and close to the door assembly 3. The material 5 is placed between the ejection mechanism and the elastic limiting part. The elastic limiting part in this configuration limits the material and works with the ejection mechanism to prevent the material from falling and to accurately place the material in the heating chamber.

[0052] More specifically, the ejection mechanism includes a cylinder 2212 and a drive plate 2213. The cylinder drives the drive plate to separate the material from the material tray.

[0053] Specifically, the door assembly 3 includes a frame 31, a slide rail 32, a door body 33, and a drive component 34. The frame 31 is connected to the housing 1. Both ends of the slide rail 32 are connected to the frame 31. The door body is disposed on the slide rail. The drive component is installed on the frame. The drive component is used to drive the door body to slide on the slide rail, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the door body. The robot arm works to deliver materials to the heating chamber or take them out from inside the heating chamber.

[0054] More specifically, the frame 31 includes a door frame 311 and a reinforcing plate 312. The door frame is connected to the box body and the door frame is connected to the reinforcing plate. The slide rail is located on the reinforcing plate and the reinforcing plate is slidably connected to the door body. The door frame is square. By setting the reinforcing plate, the strength of the frame is improved on the one hand, and the spatial structure of the drive component and the door body is optimized on the other hand, making the entire door assembly structure more compact.

[0055] More specifically, the upper end of the door frame 311 is provided with a cavity 3111, which allows the door body to move upward.

[0056] Preferably, there are multiple door sections, which are arranged vertically in parallel, and the multiple door sections form a closed structure when not opened.

[0057] More specifically, the door body 33 includes a sealing door 331 and a slider 332. The sealing door is connected to the slider, and the slider slides on the slide rail, thereby driving the sealing door to slide.

[0058] More specifically, the two ends of the sealing door are connected to a lever 333, and the lever 333 is provided with a connecting hole. When it is necessary to open the sealing door, the driving component is inserted into the connecting hole, and the sealing door is driven to slide up and down on the slide rail, so that the sealing door can be opened.

[0059] More specifically, the side of the sealed door closest to the heating chamber can also be connected to a heat insulation plate and a sealing strip. This setting is conventional existing technology, as long as it can improve the sealing, heat insulation and heating performance of the box.

[0060] Specifically, driving components are provided at both ends of the door body, which can improve the smoothness of the door body movement.

[0061] More specifically, the driving component 34 includes a driving cylinder 341 and a vertical driving frame. The driving cylinder is connected to the vertical driving frame and is connected to the sealing door. The vertical driving frame drives the driving cylinder, and the sealing door moves upward, thereby opening the sealing door.

[0062] More specifically, a fixing block 3411 is provided on the drive shaft of the drive cylinder 341, which can protect the drive shaft.

[0063] More specifically, the vertical drive frame includes a lead screw 342, a nut 343, a sliding block 344, a fixing plate 345, and a third drive motor 347. The lead screw is connected to the third drive motor and is a vertical lead screw with both ends connected to the door frame. The nut is fitted onto the lead screw, and the sliding block is fitted onto the nut and vertically slidably connected to the door frame. The fixing plate and the drive cylinder are both connected to the sliding block. When it is determined that a specific closed door needs to be opened, the third drive motor is started to drive the lead screw to rotate, the nut moves on the lead screw, which in turn causes the sliding block to slide, driving the drive cylinder to approach the closed door. At this time, the third drive motor is turned off, and the drive cylinder is started to make the drive cylinder sealed to the door. The third drive motor is started again to move the sealed door upward, thus opening the sealed door.

[0064] More specifically, a connecting rod 346 is connected between the two driving components. The connecting rod is connected to the sliding block, and the connecting rod can improve the smoothness of movement at both ends of the door body.

[0065] Specifically, there are multiple air duct components 4. Preferably, there are four air duct components. This arrangement is reasonable, the space is more compact, and it can heat materials efficiently while consuming little energy.

[0066] More specifically, the air duct assembly 4 includes a fan 41, a first air duct 42, a second air duct 43, and a third air duct 44. The air outlet of the fan is connected to the first air duct, the second air duct is connected to the heating chamber, the third air duct is connected to the heating chamber, and the third air duct is connected to the air inlet of the fan.

A second air outlet plate 422 is provided on the side of the first air duct near the heating chamber. The first air outlet plate and the second air outlet plate are parallel, and both the first air outlet plate and the second air outlet plate are provided with multiple air outlet holes. The diameter of the air outlet hole of the first air outlet plate is smaller than the diameter of the air outlet hole of the second air outlet plate. This arrangement makes the air entering the heating chamber more uniform.

[0068] More specifically, the third air duct is equipped with a heater 441, which further heats the circulating air to reduce energy consumption.

[0069] While the present invention has been disclosed above, it is not limited thereto.
