Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of dispensing equipment technology, specifically relating to a replaceable dispensing and potting production line workpiece carrier. Background Technology
[0002] Dispensing and potting are important product packaging processes widely used in the assembly of various types of products. With industrial development, the improvement of automated equipment performance, and the increasing demands for product quality, the precision and requirements for dispensing and potting processes have gradually increased, especially after the widespread use of vision technologies such as CCD.
[0003] To improve the accuracy of dispensing and potting, precise positioning of the workpieces to be dispensed or potted is necessary to avoid positional deviations caused by positioning errors. A workpiece carrier is a transport device used in a dispensing and potting production line to move workpieces to designated workstations. The carrier has a placement structure that mates with the workpiece, and to ensure accurate positioning, it typically has multiple positioning points or devices. However, since the same product has multiple dispensing or potting positions, and different models or structures of products have different dispensing or potting positions, multiple different workpiece carriers are needed to accommodate different dispensing or potting positions for the same product or for different products. This not only increases the cost of workpiece carrier molds but also results in low utilization efficiency due to the lack of interchangeability between different workpiece carriers, especially during the processing of non-standard parts. After a non-standard part is processed, its corresponding workpiece carrier becomes unusable, leading to significant waste of workpiece carriers.
[0004] Therefore, in order to solve these problems, we propose a replaceable workpiece carrier for the dispensing and potting production line. Utility Model Content
[0005] This utility model provides a replaceable workpiece carrier for a dispensing and potting production line to solve at least one of the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a workpiece carrier for a replaceable dispensing and potting production line, including a general plate and a replacement plate disposed on the general plate. The general plate is provided with a slot and a limiting component that cooperate with the annular plate to limit and fix the position of the replacement plate. The limiting component includes a first side plate and a second side plate disposed on the slot. The replacement plate is provided with a slot that cooperates with the first side plate and the second side plate. A protrusion is provided on the side of the replacement plate facing the dispensing machine.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the slot is provided with a circular card hole, and the side of the shape-changing plate facing the universal plate is provided with a card post that cooperates with the circular card hole.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the limiting component further includes a spring piece fixedly connected to the side of the slot.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the spring is a U-shaped spring including a connecting part and a deformable part. A plurality of movable holes are formed on the side of the slot. The connecting part extends into the movable holes to limit the position of the changing plate in the general plate by the deformation of the spring.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the first side plate and the second side plate are fixedly connected with a retaining spring disposed in a retaining groove, and the sides of the first side plate and the second side plate facing the changing plate are arc-shaped, and the upper side of the retaining slot is an arc-shaped matching it.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, there are at least two bumps, and the bumps are symmetrically arranged along the edge of the shape-changing plate.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the outer surface of the protrusion is provided with a crescent-shaped groove.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the protrusion is a U-shaped handle, and the surface of the U-shaped handle is engraved with a toothed pattern.
[0014] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects achieved by this utility model are as follows:
[0015] 1. As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, by setting the workpiece carrier as a universal plate and a changing plate, when it is necessary to change the workpiece carrier mold, only the changing plate needs to be replaced. The universal plate has universality, which improves the utilization efficiency of the workpiece carrier and reduces the waste of the workpiece carrier mold. The universal plate is provided with a slot and a limiting component to limit and fix the position of the changing plate, so that the changing plate achieves the purpose of precise positioning and firm engagement, ensuring the consistency of the position each time it is installed. By cooperating with the first side plate and the second side plate on the slot with the slot on the changing plate, the changing plate can be firmly engaged on the universal plate, preventing the changing plate from shifting or falling off. The protrusions on the changing plate facilitate loading and unloading from the universal plate.
[0016] 2. As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, by setting a circular card hole in the card slot to cooperate with the card post on the shape change plate, faster and more accurate positioning can be achieved, and the tight cooperation between the card hole and the card post can prevent the shape change plate from moving.
[0017] 3. As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, by setting a spring sheet on the side wall of the slot, the elastic pressure of the spring sheet keeps the side wall of the changing plate in close contact with the side of the universal plate, thereby eliminating the fit gap, and the elastic force can offset the small displacement caused by vibration during dispensing and potting.
[0018] Furthermore, by using the deformation and movable parts of the U-shaped spring to restrict the position of the changing plate in the universal plate, the friction between the U-shaped spring and the changing plate can be increased, reducing the movement of the changing plate relative to the universal plate, thereby achieving a better anti-fall-off effect.
[0019] 4. In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, by providing retaining springs on the first and second side plates, when the forming plate is engaged with the universal plate, the first and second side plates can extend and retract with the retaining springs, achieving quick locking or releasing, avoiding damage caused by direct engagement of the first and second side plates. Furthermore, the sides of the first and second side plates facing the forming plate and the upper sides of the slots are both set as arc-shaped, enabling quick assembly. The arc edges form a beveled guide, allowing for quick engagement through sliding contact during the loading and unloading of the forming plate. The arc edges also reduce wear and scratches on the retaining plates and slots.
[0020] 5. As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, when there are two protrusions and they are symmetrically arranged on the edge of the changing plate, it can prevent the wear of the slot or the positioning offset caused by the uneven load when the operator applies force with both hands at the same time, and it is also easier to pick up and achieve rapid assembly.
[0021] Meanwhile, the crescent-shaped groove on the outer side of the bump provides a clear point of force application, increases friction, avoids slipping when contacting the bump, and improves the convenience of using the bump.
[0022] In addition, when the protrusion is a U-shaped handle, the U-shaped opening allows the palm to grip from any angle, ensuring the operator's accuracy when picking up the change plate. Attached Figure Description

[0041] Example 1
[0042] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a replaceable dispensing and potting production line workpiece carrier includes a universal plate 1 and a shape-changing plate 2 disposed on the universal plate 1. The universal plate 1 is provided with a slot 11 and a limiting component 12 to limit and fix the position of the shape-changing plate 2. When the shape-changing plate 2 is assembled, the shape of the shape-changing plate 2 is adapted to the slot 11, and the shape-changing plate 2 smoothly engages with the slot 11 to fix the position of the shape-changing plate 2. The limiting component 12 includes a first side plate 121 and a second side plate 122 disposed on the slot 11. The shape-changing plate 2 is provided with a shape-changing plate that engages with the first side plate 121 and the second side plate 122. The locking slot 21, with its 22-part engagement mechanism, allows the first side plate 121 and the second side plate 122 to engage firmly with the universal plate 1 during assembly. This ensures the changing plate 2 is securely locked onto the universal plate 1, preventing displacement or detachment. A protrusion 22 is located on the side of the changing plate 2 facing the dispensing machine. During assembly, this protrusion assists in quick and precise positioning and installation. During disassembly, the protrusion 22 provides a fulcrum, allowing the changing plate 2 to be easily removed from the universal plate 1. This design ensures precise positioning and secure locking of the changing plate 2, guaranteeing consistent installation position each time.
[0043] Example 2
[0044] like Figure 4 As shown, a workpiece carrier for a replaceable dispensing and potting production line, differing from Embodiment 1, has a slot 11 with at least four circular locking holes 111. A locking post 23 is provided on the side of the change plate 2 facing the universal plate 1 to cooperate with it. When the change plate 2 is assembled onto the universal plate 1, the locking post 23 of the change plate 2 is aligned with the locking hole, and the position is automatically corrected by a tapered guide. After the locking post 23 is fully inserted, the change plate 2 and the universal plate 1 are in contact. At this time, the locking post 23 restricts horizontal movement, allowing the change plate 2 to be accurately locked into the universal plate 1, reducing adjustment time. Furthermore, the tight fit between the locking hole and the locking post 23 prevents the change plate 2 from moving within the slot 11 of the universal plate 1.
[0045] Example 3
[0046] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a workpiece carrier for a replaceable dispensing and potting production line, which differs from Embodiment 1, has a spring sheet 123 with an elastic structure. Through the deformation of the deformable part 1232 and the movable part on the U-shaped spring sheet 123, the side wall of the changing plate 2 is always in close contact with one side of the universal plate 1, thereby eliminating the fit gap. Moreover, the elasticity can offset the small displacement caused by vibration during dispensing and potting.
[0047] Specifically, the sidewall of the slot 11 may have a movable hole 124 formed on the spring piece 123. The movable hole 124 extends along the length of the sidewall of the slot 11. The connecting portion 1231 of the spring piece 123 extends into the movable hole 124. The spring piece 123 has a deformable portion 1232. Through the cooperation between the deformable portion 1232 and the movable hole 124, the spring piece 123 can only move within the fixed range of the movable hole 124. Utilizing the cooperation between the deformable portion 1232 on the spring piece 123 and the movable hole 124, when the spring piece 123 is in the extended state, the deformable portion 1232 can pull the connecting portion 1231 out of the movable hole 124. At this time, the curvature of the deformable portion 1232 reaches its maximum angle. When the changing plate 2 is inserted into the slot 11, the side wall of the changing plate 2 applies a pushing force to the spring piece 123 towards the bottom of the movable hole 124. At this time, the deformable part 1232 deforms and is compressed, and the connecting part 1231 moves towards the bottom of the movable slot. Because the U-shaped spring piece 123 is deformed and compressed, the curvature of the deformable part 1232 becomes smaller, and the deformable part 1232 applies a pushing force in the opposite direction to the changing plate 2. Therefore, the friction between the U-shaped spring piece 123 and the changing plate 2 can be increased, reducing the sliding of the changing plate 2 relative to the slot 11. The deformation of the spring piece 123 restricts the position of the changing plate 2 in the slot 11, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing displacement.
[0048] Example 4
[0049] like Figure 7As shown, a workpiece carrier for a replaceable dispensing and potting production line, differing from Embodiment 1, has multiple retaining springs 125 fixedly connected to the first side plate 121 and the second side plate 122 within a retaining groove 11. When the replacement plate 2 is assembled into the universal plate 1, the side wall of the replacement plate 2 snaps downward into the retaining groove 11 of the universal plate. When it contacts the first side plate 121 and the second side plate 122, the retaining springs 125 deform under pressure, compressing the first side plate 121 and the second side plate 122 into the retaining groove 11. When the first side plate 121 and the second side plate 122 reach the latch 21 position, the retaining springs 125 automatically release due to their rebound. The first side plate 121 and the second side plate 122 are ejected from the slot 11. At this time, the first side plate 121 and the second side plate 122 are engaged with the slot 21. When the shape-changing plate 2 is removed from the universal plate 1, the arc shape of the side of the first side plate 121 and the second side plate 122 facing the shape-changing plate 2, and the upper side of the slot 21 is an arc shape that matches it, changes the sliding friction into a rolling tendency, so that the first side plate 121 and the second side plate 122 can slide out of the slot 21 more smoothly, and avoids the damage caused by the direct engagement of the first side plate 121 and the second side plate 122, thus extending the service life of the vehicle.
[0050] Example 5
[0051] like Figure 8 As shown, a workpiece carrier for a replaceable dispensing and potting production line, which differs from Embodiment 1, has a crescent-shaped groove 221 on the outer side of the protrusion 22, which optimizes the force application point. The crescent-shaped groove provides a natural fingertip contact surface, so that the operator can easily apply force when disassembling the form change plate 2.
[0052] In addition, such as Figure 4 As shown, when the protrusion 22 is a U-shaped handle 24, it provides a clear force point for disassembling the shape change plate 2. When the shape change plate 2 is disassembled, the U-shaped opening allows the palm to hold it from any angle, and the shape change plate 2 can be quickly hooked and pulled off. In addition, the surface of the U-shaped handle 24 is engraved with tooth-like patterns, which can increase the friction of the contact surface of the U-shaped handle 24, prevent the operator from slipping when gripping, and improve the convenience and efficiency of assembly.

[0054] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referred to each other. Each embodiment focuses on describing the differences from other embodiments.
[0055] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principle of this utility model should be included within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
