Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.
[0026] The following will describe some embodiments of this application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] Please see Figure 1 This application provides a cleaning device 100 for cleaning products (not shown). The product can be the casing or display panel of an electronic device such as a mobile phone or tablet. For ease of understanding, this application uses a mobile phone casing as an example, and defines the first direction as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The X-axis direction is shown, and the second direction is... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The Y-axis direction shown is the third direction. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The Z-axis direction shown is perpendicular to each other in the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction. Obviously, this is not a limitation on the embodiments of this application.
[0028] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, the cleaning device 100 includes a base 10, a transfer mechanism 20, a bracket 31, an identification element 32, and a cleaning mechanism 40.
[0029] The transfer mechanism 20 includes a moving component 21 and a positioning component 22. The positioning component 22 includes a positioning seat 221, a clamping drive 222, and a plurality of clamping members 223. The moving component 21 is disposed on the base 10, and the positioning seat 221 is connected to the moving component 21 to move along a first direction under the drive of the moving component 21. The positioning seat 221 is used to carry the product. The clamping drive 222 is disposed on the positioning seat 221, and the plurality of clamping members 223 are connected to the clamping drive 222. The plurality of clamping members 223 are used to move closer together under the drive of the clamping drive 222 to clamp and position the product.
[0030] A bracket 31 is mounted on the base 10 and is located on one side of the moving component 21. An identification element 32 is mounted on the bracket 31 and is positioned corresponding to the moving path of the positioning seat 221. For example, the identification element 32 can be positioned on the moving path of the positioning seat 221 or around the periphery of the moving path (e.g., the identification element 32 can be positioned above, to the left, or to the right of the positioning seat 221 in the moving direction). The identification element 32 can be a guide camera and is used to identify the positional deviation of the product.
[0031] The cleaning mechanism 40 includes a motion component 41 and a cleaning element 42. The motion mechanism is located on the base 10, and the motion component 41 is situated on one side of the moving component 21. The motion component 41 is electrically connected to the identification element 32. The cleaning element 42 is connected to the motion component 41 and can be a plasma nozzle module. The motion component 41 drives the cleaning element 42 to move according to the positional deviation of the product, so that the cleaning element 42 cleans the product.
[0032] When the cleaning device 100 cleans the product, the product is moved onto the positioning seat 221. The clamping drive 222 drives multiple clamping members 223 to move closer together, and the multiple clamping members 223 center and clamp the product. The moving component 21 drives the positioning seat 221 and the product to move below the identification member 32, and the identification member 32 identifies the positional deviation of the product. The moving component 21 drives the positioning seat 221 and the product to a position corresponding to the cleaning mechanism 40. The motion component 41 drives the cleaning member 42 to move according to the positional deviation of the product, and the cleaning member 42 cleans the product. In this way, the cleaning device 100 of this embodiment realizes the function of automatically cleaning products, improving the efficiency and quality of product cleaning. During the product cleaning process, multiple clamping members 223 center and clamp the product, and the motion component 41 drives the cleaning member 42 to move according to the positional deviation of the product identified by the identification member 32 to compensate for the positional deviation of the product. This achieves precise control of the cleaning area, improves the accuracy of product cleaning, reduces the probability of product scrap due to damage to easily burned areas, and improves the yield of the cleaned products.
[0033] Please refer to it again. Figure 1 and Figure 2In this embodiment, the moving component 21 includes a linear module 211, a guide member 212, a lifting drive member 213, and a sliding member 214. The linear module 211 is disposed on the base 10 and extends along a first direction. The guide member 212 is connected to the linear module 211 to move along the first direction under the drive of the linear module 211. The lifting drive member 213 is connected to the linear module 211 and is located on one side of the guide member 212. The lifting drive member 213 can be a telescopic cylinder. The sliding member 214 is slidably disposed on the guide member 212 along a third direction and is connected to the lifting drive member 213. A positioning seat 221 is disposed on the sliding member 214.
[0034] By setting up the linear module 211, it is easy to move the positioning seat 221 and the product to the positions corresponding to the identification element 32 and the cleaning mechanism 40, respectively. By setting up the lifting drive 213 to drive the sliding member 214 and the positioning seat 221 to rise and fall, it is easier to receive the product. When the lifting drive 213 drives the positioning seat 221 to rise, the product is closer to the identification element 32, thereby improving the accuracy of the identification element 32 in identifying the product's positional deviation. In addition, when there are multiple positioning seats 221, the lifting drive 213 drives the positioning seats 221 to rise and fall, so that the multiple positioning seats 221 are located at different heights. The multiple positioning seats 221 can be staggered with each other in the height direction, which can effectively avoid interference between the multiple positioning seats 221.
[0035] In this embodiment, the guide member 212 is provided with a slide rail 2121, which extends along a third direction, and the slider 214 is slidably disposed on the slide rail 2121. When the lifting drive member 213 drives the slider 214 to rise and fall, the slide rail 2121 guides the movement direction of the slider 214, thereby improving the accuracy of the lifting drive member 213 driving the slider 214 to rise and fall.
[0036] Please refer to the following: Figure 3 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the positioning base 221 includes a base plate 2211 and a carrier plate 2212. The base plate 2211 is connected to the sliding member 214, and the carrier plate 2212 is disposed on the base plate 2211 and is used to support the product. An avoidance hole 2211a is provided on the base plate 2211 near the carrier plate 2212. A clamping drive member 222 is disposed on the base plate 2211, and multiple clamping members 223 are arranged around the carrier plate 2212. Some of the clamping members 223 pass through the avoidance hole 2211a and extend to a position near the carrier plate 2212.
[0037] In this embodiment, the plurality of clamping members 223 include a first clamping member 2231, a second clamping member 2232, a third clamping member 2233, and a fourth clamping member 2234. The first clamping member 2231 and the second clamping member 2232 are disposed opposite to each other and are both connected to the clamping drive member 222. The first clamping member 2231 and the second clamping member 2232 can move closer to each other under the drive of the clamping drive member 222. The third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234 are disposed opposite to each other. The third clamping member 2233 is slidably disposed on the positioning seat 221 and is drive-connected to the first clamping member 2231. The fourth clamping member 2234 is slidably disposed on the positioning seat 221 and is drive-connected to the second clamping member 2232. The third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234 move closer to each other under the action of the first clamping member 2231 and the action of the second clamping member 2232.
[0038] When multiple clamping elements 223 center and clamp the product, the clamping drive element 222 drives the first clamping element 2231 and the second clamping element 2232 to move closer together. The first clamping element 2231 and the second clamping element 2232 then drive the third clamping element 2233 and the fourth clamping element 2234 to move closer together, respectively. In this way, the multiple clamping elements 223 work together to center and clamp the product, simplifying the structural design and improving the accuracy of centering and clamping the product.
[0039] In this embodiment, the first clamping member 2231 and the second clamping member 2232 move along a first direction, while the third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234 move along a second direction. Thus, the first clamping member 2231, the second clamping member 2232, the third clamping member 2233, and the fourth clamping member 2234 clamp and position the product along two mutually perpendicular directions, thereby improving the accuracy of centering and positioning the product.
[0040] In other embodiments, the first clamping member 2231 and the second clamping member 2232 may also move along the second direction, and correspondingly, the third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234 move along the first direction. This application embodiment does not specifically limit this.
[0041] In this embodiment, there are two clamping drive members 222, and both clamping drive members 222 can be slide cylinders. The first clamping member 2231 and the second clamping member 2232 are respectively connected to the two clamping drive members 222.
[0042] In other embodiments, the number of clamping drive members 222 may also be one. The clamping drive member 222 may be a double-acting slide cylinder or a finger-clamping cylinder. This application embodiment does not specifically limit this.
[0043] In this embodiment, the base plate 2211 is provided with a guide rail 2211b extending in the second direction, and the third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234 are slidably disposed on the guide rail 2211b, thereby improving the accuracy of the third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234 in clamping and positioning the product.
[0044] In this embodiment, both the first clamping member 2231 and the second clamping member 2232 include a movable plate 2231a and a clamping block 2231b. The movable plate 2231a is connected to the corresponding clamping drive member 222, and the clamping block 2231b is disposed on the movable plate 2231a. The clamping member 223 extends from one side of the base plate 2211 to a position close to the carrier plate 2212. The third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234 both include a sliding plate 2233a and an abutment block 2233b. The sliding plate 2233a is slidably disposed on the guide rail 2211b and is drively connected to the corresponding movable plate 2231a. The abutment block 2233b is disposed on the sliding plate 2233a and passes through the clearance hole 2211a and extends to a position close to the carrier plate 2212. When the first clamping member 2231, the second clamping member 2232, the third clamping member 2233, and the fourth clamping member 2234 clamp and position the product, the two clamping blocks 2231b and the two abutting blocks 2233b clamp and position the product from all four sides.
[0045] In this embodiment, the positioning component 22 further includes a first rolling element 2241 and a second rolling element 2242. The first rolling element 2241 is rotatably disposed on the first clamping element 2231, and the third clamping element 2233 has a first abutting inclined surface 2233c that abuts against the first rolling element 2241. The second rolling element 2242 is rotatably disposed on the second clamping element 2232, and the fourth clamping element 2234 has a second abutting inclined surface 2234c that abuts against the second rolling element 2242. The first rolling element 2241 acts on the first abutting inclined surface 2233c, and the second rolling element 2242 acts on the second abutting inclined surface 2234c, so that the third clamping element 2233 and the fourth clamping element 2234 move closer to each other.
[0046] When the first clamping member 2231 and the second clamping member 2232 approach each other, the first rolling member 2241 and the second rolling member 2242 approach each other under the drive of the first clamping member 2231 and the second clamping member 2232, respectively. The first rolling member 2241 and the second rolling member 2242 respectively press the first abutting inclined surface 2233c and the second abutting inclined surface 2234c, thereby bringing the third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234 closer together. Since the structure of the first rolling member 2241 cooperating with the first abutting inclined surface 2233c and the second rolling member 2242 cooperating with the second abutting inclined surface 2234c is simple and has high transmission accuracy, the cost of the positioning assembly 22 is reduced, and the accuracy of the multiple clamping members 223 in centering and clamping the product is improved.
[0047] In this embodiment, the first rolling element 2241 is rotatably disposed on the moving plate 2231a of the first clamping element 2231, the second rolling element 2242 is rotatably disposed on the moving plate 2231a of the second clamping element 2232, the first abutting inclined surface 2233c is disposed on the sliding plate 2233a of the third clamping element 2233, and the second abutting inclined surface 2234c is disposed on the sliding plate 2233a of the fourth clamping element 2234.
[0048] In this embodiment, the positioning component 22 further includes a first stop 2251, a second stop 2252, a first elastic member 2261, and a second elastic member 2262. The first stop 2251 is disposed on the positioning base 221 and located on the moving path of the third clamping member 2233. The two ends of the first elastic member 2261 are respectively connected to the third clamping member 2233 and the first stop 2251. The second stop 2252 is disposed on the positioning base 221 and located on the moving path of the fourth clamping member 2234. The two ends of the second elastic member 2262 are respectively connected to the fourth clamping member 2234 and the second stop 2252.
[0049] For example, the first stop 2251 and the second stop 2252 are both provided on the base plate 2211, and the first elastic member 2261 and the second elastic member 2262 can both be springs. The two ends of the first elastic member 2261 are respectively connected to the sliding plate 2233a of the third clamping member 2233 and the first stop 2251, and the two ends of the second elastic member 2262 are respectively connected to the sliding plate 2233a of the fourth clamping member 2234 and the second stop 2252.
[0050] When the first clamping member 2231 and the second clamping member 2232 release the product, the first elastic member 2261 drives the third clamping member 2233, and the second elastic member 2262 drives the fourth clamping member 2234 to move in opposite directions, so that the third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234 release the product simultaneously. Thus, by providing the first stop member 2251, the second stop member 2252, the first elastic member 2261, and the second elastic member 2262, it is convenient for the third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234 to reset and for them to release the product.
[0051] Please refer to it again. Figure 3 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the positioning component 22 further includes an adsorption member 227, which is disposed on the positioning seat 221 and located between multiple clamping members 223. The adsorption member 227 is used to adsorb and fix the product.
[0052] For example, the adsorption element 227 is disposed on the carrier plate 2212. The adsorption element 227 can be a suction cup. An air passage (not shown) is provided on the carrier plate 2212. The two ends of the air passage are respectively connected to an air source (not shown) and the adsorption element 227. The adsorption element 227 adsorbs and fixes the product by vacuuming.
[0053] After the first clamping member 2231, the second clamping member 2232, the third clamping member 2233, and the fourth clamping member 2234 clamp and position the product, the adsorption member 227 adsorbs and fixes the product, thereby reducing the probability of the product moving after positioning. When the cleaning member 42 cleans the product, the first clamping member 2231, the second clamping member 2232, the third clamping member 2233, and the fourth clamping member 2234 release the product to avoid obstructing the area of the product to be cleaned. The adsorption member 227 continues to fix the product, reducing the probability of the product moving during cleaning, thereby improving the quality of product cleaning and reducing the probability of product scrap due to damage to the easily burned areas. In addition, the adsorption member 227 and the identification member 32 work together to effectively prevent the product from being not placed in the correct position during loading and continue cleaning, reducing the probability of abnormal product damage.
[0054] In this embodiment, there are two carrier plates 2212, two clamping blocks 2231b for both the first clamping member 2231 and the second clamping member 2232, and two abutting blocks 2233b for both the third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234. Each pair of clamping blocks 2231b and each pair of abutting blocks 2233b are arranged around one carrier plate 2212. Thus, the positioning assembly 22 has a simple structure and can simultaneously position two products, thereby improving the efficiency of the cleaning device 100 in cleaning products.
[0055] In other embodiments, the number of carrier plates 2212 can also be three, four, five, etc. As long as the number of clamping blocks 2231b of the first clamping member 2231 and the second clamping member 2232, as well as the number of abutting blocks 2233b of the third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234 are adjusted accordingly, the positioning component 22 can simultaneously position the corresponding number of products. This application embodiment does not make specific limitations on this.
[0056] In this embodiment, there are multiple sets of moving components 21 and positioning components 22. Each set of moving components 21 corresponds one-to-one with a set of positioning components 22. The moving components 21 are spaced apart along the second direction, and the positioning seat 221 of each positioning component 22 is connected to the corresponding moving component 21. Thus, when the cleaning component 42 cleans the product on a set of positioning components 22, the other set of moving components 21 can drive the corresponding positioning component 22 to move for loading and product position detection. During the entire product cleaning cycle, when the cleaning time of the cleaning component 42 is equal to the sum of the time for transfer and loading / unloading, the production capacity of this embodiment is increased to the maximum, twice that of a single platform, thereby reducing the waiting time of the cleaning component 42 and improving the efficiency of the cleaning device 100 in cleaning products.
[0057] Please see Figure 5 In this embodiment, the motion component 41 includes a support member 411, a first linear drive member 412, and a second linear drive member 413. The support member 411 is disposed on the base 10 and is located on one side of the moving component 21. The first linear drive member 412 is disposed on the support member 411. The second linear drive member 413 is connected to the first linear drive member 412 to move along a second direction under the drive of the first linear drive member 412. The cleaning component 42 is connected to the second linear drive member 413 to move along a third direction under the drive of the second linear drive member 413. Both the first linear drive member 412 and the second linear drive member 413 can be linear motors.
[0058] Thus, the motion component 41 has a simple structure, which can drive the cleaning component 42 to move accurately according to the position of the product, and automatically adjust the height of the cleaning component 42 according to the height of the product, thereby improving the accuracy and quality of the cleaning device 100 in cleaning the product.
[0059] In this embodiment, the motion component 41 further includes a third linear drive 414, which is connected to the second linear drive 413. The cleaning component 42 is connected to the third linear drive 414 and also connected to the second linear drive 413 via the third linear drive 414. The cleaning component 42 moves along a first direction under the drive of the third linear drive 414. This further improves the accuracy of the motion component 41 in driving the cleaning component 42 to move according to the position of the product, thereby further improving the precision and quality of the cleaning device 100 in cleaning the product.
[0060] In this embodiment, there are two cleaning components 42. The first linear drive component 412 is a dual-moving linear motor. There are also two second linear drive components 413 and two third linear drive components 414. The two second linear drive components 413 are respectively connected to the two moving parts (not shown) of the first linear drive component 412. The two cleaning components 42 are respectively connected to the two second linear drive components 413 through the two third linear drive components 414. In this way, the motion component 41 can drive the two cleaning components 42 to alternately clean the products on the two sets of positioning components 22, or the motion component 41 can drive the two cleaning components 42 to clean two products simultaneously, thereby improving the efficiency of cleaning products.
[0061] In other embodiments, the number of cleaning components 42 can be set according to the number of products positioned on the positioning component 22, and this application embodiment does not specifically limit this.
[0062] Please refer to it again. Figure 1 In this embodiment, the cleaning device 100 further includes an assembly frame 51 and a barcode scanner 52. The assembly frame 51 is disposed on the base 10 and located on one side of the moving component 21. The barcode scanner 52 is disposed on the assembly frame 51 and is arranged corresponding to the moving path of the positioning seat 221. For example, the barcode scanner 52 can be disposed on the moving path of the positioning seat 22 or on the periphery of the moving path (for example, the barcode scanner 52 can be disposed above, to the left or to the right of the moving direction of the positioning seat 22). The barcode scanner 52 can be a barcode scanner.
[0063] Before the identification component 32 identifies the product's positional deviation, the moving component 21 first moves the product to below the barcode scanner 52. The barcode scanner 52 scans the barcode (not shown) on the product to record the product's production information, thereby facilitating the traceability of the product's production information.
[0064] Please refer to the following: Figure 6 In this embodiment, the cleaning device 100 further includes a loading mechanism 60 and a unloading mechanism 70. The loading mechanism 60 is disposed on the base 10, with one end adjacent to the moving component 21, and is used to place the product to be cleaned onto the positioning seat 221. The unloading mechanism 70 is disposed on the base 10, with the other end adjacent to the moving component 21, and is used to remove the cleaned product from the positioning seat 221.
[0065] By setting up the feeding mechanism 60 and the unloading mechanism 70, the automatic feeding and unloading of products is realized, saving the time of feeding and unloading, thereby further improving the efficiency of the cleaning device 100 in cleaning products.
[0066] In this embodiment, both the loading mechanism 60 and the unloading mechanism 70 include a fixed frame 61, a linear drive 62, a lifting drive 63, and a suction member 64. The fixed frame 61 is mounted on the base 10. The linear drive 62 is mounted on the fixed frame 61. The lifting drive 63 is connected to the linear drive 62 and moves along a first direction under the drive of the linear drive 62. The suction member 64 is connected to the lifting drive 63 and is used to pick up and place products. The linear drive 62 can be a linear motor, and the lifting drive 63 can be a telescopic cylinder. Thus, the structures of the loading mechanism 60 and the unloading mechanism 70 are simple, and the accuracy of loading and unloading is improved.
[0067] In other embodiments, the structures of the feeding mechanism 60 and the unloading mechanism 70 may also be different, and this application embodiment does not specifically limit them.
[0068] The cleaning process of the cleaning device 100 in this embodiment of the application is roughly as follows:
[0069] The linear drive 62 and lifting drive 63 of the feeding mechanism 60 drive the suction component 64 to move. The suction component 64 picks up two products to be cleaned from the previous workstation and places the two products to be cleaned onto the two carrier plates 2212 of a set of positioning components 22.
[0070] The two clamping drive members 222 of the positioning component 22 drive the first clamping member 2231 and the second clamping member 2232 to move closer to each other. The first clamping member 2231 and the second clamping member 2232 respectively drive the third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234 to move closer to each other. The first clamping member 2231, the second clamping member 2232, the third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234 clamp and position the product, and the adsorption member 227 adsorbs and fixes the product. The two clamping drive members 222 drive the first clamping member 2231 and the second clamping member 2232 to move away from each other and release the product. The first elastic member 2261 and the second elastic member 2262 respectively drive the third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234 to move in opposite directions. The third clamping member 2233 and the fourth clamping member 2234 release the product at the same time.
[0071] A set of corresponding moving components 21 drives the positioning component 22 and the product to move below the barcode scanner 52. The barcode scanner 52 scans the barcode on the product and enters the product's production information.
[0072] A set of corresponding moving components 21 drives the positioning component 22 and the product to move below the identification component 32. The identification component 32 takes a picture of the product to identify the product's positional deviation.
[0073] A set of corresponding moving components 21 drives the positioning component 22 and the product to move to the position corresponding to the cleaning mechanism 40. The first linear drive component 412, the second linear drive component 413 and the third linear drive component 414 cooperate to drive the cleaning component 42 to move according to the preset cleaning trajectory, and perform corresponding coordinate compensation according to the position deviation of the product. The cleaning component 42 cleans the product.
[0074] A set of corresponding moving components 21 drives the positioning components 22 and the product to move to a position close to the unloading mechanism 70. The linear drive component 62 and the lifting drive component 63 of the unloading mechanism 70 drive the suction component 64 to move. The suction component 64 moves the cleaned product to the next workstation.
[0075] The lifting drive component 213 of the corresponding set of moving components 21 drives the positioning component 22 to descend, and the linear module 211 drives the positioning component 22 to return to its original position so that it can be loaded again.
[0076] While the cleaning mechanism 40 is cleaning the products on a set of positioning components 22, the loading mechanism 60 picks up two other products and places them on two carrier plates 2212 of another set of positioning components 22. Another set of moving components 21 drives the positioning components 22 to move and repeats the above process.
[0077] In summary, the cleaning device 100 of this application embodiment, by setting up a transfer mechanism 20, an identification element 32, and a cleaning mechanism 40, realizes the function of automatically cleaning products, improving the efficiency and quality of product cleaning. During the product cleaning process, multiple clamping elements 223 center and clamp the product for positioning. The motion component 41 drives the cleaning element 42 to move according to the positional deviation of the product identified by the identification element 32 to compensate for the positional deviation of the product, realizing precise control of the cleaning area, improving the accuracy of product cleaning, reducing the probability of product scrap due to damage to easily burned areas, and improving the yield of the cleaned products. In addition, by setting multiple sets of the moving component 21 and the positioning component 22, the waiting time of the cleaning element 42 during product loading and unloading is shortened, thereby further improving the efficiency of product cleaning.
