Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of indium coating equipment technology, specifically relating to an automated device for indium coating on the outer circle of a target material. Background Technology

[0002] Indium is a rare dispersed metal that, due to its unique electrical conductivity, low melting point, and optical properties, has become a key material in modern high-tech industries (displays, photovoltaics, semiconductors). Furthermore, with the development of flexible electronics and new energy technologies, the application and demand for indium are increasing. In practical production applications, coating the surface of a target material with a layer of indium gives it good corrosion resistance and improves conductivity. However, conventional methods cannot evenly coat the outer wall of the target material with indium, and even when applied, it is prone to peeling off. Ultrasonic coating can effectively solve this problem. Ultrasonic indium coating is a method that combines ultrasonic technology with indium coating processes, significantly improving the uniformity, adhesion, and material utilization of the coating, while reducing the significant health hazards associated with manual indium coating.

[0003] Currently, existing ultrasonic indium coating methods have strict requirements on the size of the target material. Different target sizes require different fixtures, resulting in high coating costs. For example, patent application number "202121566329.6" discloses an automatic ultrasonic indium coating device, including an ultrasonic indium coating apparatus, a sliding platform, and a support table. This device enables automated indium coating of rotating targets or back tubes, achieving good coating results and high quality. It allows for simple automated operation, but indium coating is wasteful and cannot be recycled, and the device can only fix the target size. In addition, existing ultrasonic indium coating lacks an automatic indium replenishment device, which cannot replenish indium in time when coating is uneven, affecting coating efficiency. Therefore, the structure of existing ultrasonic indium coating equipment needs further improvement. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides an automated device for indium coating on the outer circle of a target material. It features a compact structure, applicability to various target sizes, high indium coating efficiency, and good indium coating uniformity. It can be widely used in the field of ultrasonic indium coating equipment production technology.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: an automated device for indium coating on the outer circle of a target material, including a support, an indium receiving basin inside the support, and an indium receiving groove on the indium receiving basin; a target material clamp inside the upper end of the support, one end of the target material clamp is connected to a lifting cylinder, and the other end is connected to a roller rotation motor; a target material is sleeved on the target material clamp, and a heating plate is provided below the target material; a track shaft is provided at the top of the support, an ultrasonic main unit is provided on the track shaft, an axial movement motor is provided below the ultrasonic main unit, an automatic indium replenishment device is provided on the side, and an ultrasonic probe is provided below the automatic indium replenishment device; the ultrasonic main unit is also connected to a display control screen.

[0006] As an improvement of this utility model, the bracket is a long rectangular structure with a detachable panel on the outside and multiple parallel horizontal reinforcing bars on the inside.

[0007] As an improvement of this utility model, the indium receiving basin has a V-shaped structure and is sealed at both ends.

[0008] As an improvement of this utility model, the target clamp has a conical head, which can clamp targets of different diameters.

[0009] As an improvement of this utility model, the heating plate has a segmented structure, consisting of 3 to 5 segments, each of which is equipped with an independent heating rod assembly.

[0010] As an improvement of this utility model, the heating plate adopts a dynamic temperature adjustment setting, which can sense the change in the surface temperature of the target material according to the slight change in the ultrasonic frequency. By adjusting the temperature of the bottom segmented heating plate, the surface temperature of the target material can be adjusted in real time, thereby effectively improving the uniformity of indium coating on the target material.

[0011] As an improvement of this utility model, the roller rotary motor is connected to the target clamp via a chain, thereby driving the target clamp to rotate, and then the target clamp drives the target to rotate to achieve uniform indium coating.

[0012] As an improvement of this utility model, the drum rotary motor is a variable frequency motor with adjustable speed.

[0013] As an improvement of this utility model, the display control screen is equipped with adjustable parameters for lifting cylinder control, heating plate temperature, target clamp rotation speed, ultrasonic host frequency control, and indium coating speed. At the same time, the display control screen is also equipped with automatic indium replenishment operation.

[0014] As an improvement of this utility model, the frequency range of the ultrasonic host is 15kHz-40kHz.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: An automated device for indium coating on the outer diameter of a target material has the characteristics of compact structure, applicability to various target sizes, high indium coating efficiency, and good indium coating uniformity. By using an adjustable-length lifting cylinder to adapt to target materials of different lengths, and in conjunction with a conical head target clamp, it can accommodate target materials of different inner diameters, making the target material applicable to a wider range of lengths and diameters. By using a dynamically temperature-controlled heating plate, the device can sense changes in the surface temperature of the target material based on subtle changes in ultrasonic frequency, and then adjust the temperature of multiple heating plates at the bottom to achieve real-time dynamic adjustment, greatly improving the overall indium coating uniformity of the target material. In addition, by setting up an indium receiving basin, excess indium liquid during the indium coating process can be recycled and reused, avoiding material waste. The device automatically coats the target surface with indium according to a set program, and the indium replenishment device automatically replenishes indium according to a set program, ensuring that the target material is more stable and reliable during the indium coating process.

[0020] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings: Figures 1-3As shown, an automated device for indium coating on the outer circle of a target includes a support 1, an indium receiving basin 2 inside the support 1, and an indium receiving groove 3 on the indium receiving basin 2; a target clamp 4 is provided inside the upper end of the support 1, one end of the target clamp 4 is connected to a lifting cylinder 5, and the other end is connected to a roller rotation motor 6; a target 7 is fitted on the target clamp 4, and a heating plate 8 is provided below the target 7; a track shaft 9 is provided at the top of the support 1, an ultrasonic host 10 is provided on the track shaft 9, an axial movement motor 11 is provided below the ultrasonic host 10, an automatic indium replenishment device 12 is provided on the side, and an ultrasonic probe 17 is provided below the automatic indium replenishment device 12; the ultrasonic host 10 is also connected to a display control screen 13.

[0021] Furthermore, the bracket 1 has a long rectangular structure with a detachable panel 14 on the outside and multiple parallel transverse reinforcing bars 15 inside. Specifically, there are 3 to 6 sets of detachable panels 14, each set corresponding to the front and back, which facilitates the disassembly and installation of internal components of the bracket, especially the removal of the indium receiving basin 2. There are 3 to 6 transverse reinforcing bars 15, which are located in the width direction of the bracket 1, thereby providing the bracket 1 with higher support strength and ensuring that the bracket 1 has good stability when the ultrasonic equipment is working.

[0022] Furthermore, the indium receiving basin 2 has a V-shaped structure and is sealed at both ends; specifically, the indium receiving basin 2 is located directly below the target clamp 4 and covers the entire bottom of the target clamp 4, thereby facilitating the complete collection of excess indium liquid during the indium coating process and preventing indium liquid from leaking out and being wasted.

[0023] Furthermore, the target clamp 4 has a conical head, which can clamp targets of different diameters; specifically, the conical structure of the head of the target clamp 4 is a variable diameter conical structure, which makes it easier for targets of different inner diameters to fit in, and at the same time makes the fixation of the target more stable.

[0024] Furthermore, the heating plate 8 has a segmented structure, consisting of 3 to 5 segments, each with an independent heating rod assembly. Specifically, the heating plate 8 employs a dynamic temperature adjustment setting, which can sense changes in the surface temperature of the target material 7 based on subtle changes in the ultrasonic frequency. By adjusting the temperature of the bottom segmented heating plate, the surface temperature of the target material 7 can be adjusted in real time, making the surface temperature of the target material 7 more uniform, thereby effectively improving the uniformity of indium coating on the surface of the target material 7.

[0025] Furthermore, the roller rotary motor 6 is connected to the target clamp 4 via a chain 16, thereby driving the target clamp 4 to rotate, which in turn drives the target 7 to rotate to achieve uniform indium coating; specifically, the roller rotary motor 6 is a variable frequency motor with adjustable speed, so the speed can be adjusted according to the size of the target 7 to obtain the best indium coating efficiency.

[0026] Furthermore, the display control screen 13 is equipped with adjustable parameters for lifting cylinder control, heating plate temperature, target fixture rotation speed, ultrasonic host frequency control, and indium coating speed. The display control screen 13 also features an automatic indium replenishment operation, which, when activated, enables automatic indium replenishment during the indium coating process. Specifically, the ultrasonic host frequency range is 15kHz-40kHz, and the operating frequency of the ultrasonic host 10 can be adjusted according to the indium coating thickness and rate to obtain the optimal indium coating effect.

[0027] This utility model discloses an automated device for indium coating on the outer circle of a target material. It features a compact structure, applicability to various target sizes, high indium coating efficiency, and good indium coating uniformity. The working principle is as follows: First, the target material 7 is installed on the target material clamp 6 and tightened by a lifting cylinder. Then, the display control screen 13 is operated to set the rotation speed of the target material clamp 6 and the temperature of the heating plate. After starting, the roller rotation motor 6 drives the chain 16 to work, and then the chain 16 drives the target material clamp 6 to rotate. At the same time, the target material 7 rotates synchronously. Then, the heating plate 8 at the bottom begins to heat the target material 7 as a whole. After heating to the set temperature (180~220℃), the ultrasonic probe 17 is pressed down, and the automatic indium replenishment device 12 slowly drips indium liquid according to the program setting. The ultrasonic probe 17 is driven by the axial movement motor 11 to reciprocate and coat the outer circle of the target material 7 with indium. The excess indium liquid generated during the indium coating process is collected from the indium receiving tank 3 into the indium receiving basin 2 to realize the recycling of indium liquid.

[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above examples are merely specific embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments and can have many variations. All variations that can be directly derived or conceived by those skilled in the art from the disclosure of this utility model should be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
