Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of laser engraving equipment technology, and in particular to an automatic positioning structure for laser engraving of a rotary multi-station ink cartridge cover. Background Technology
[0002] Laser engraving is a crucial step in the production of ink cartridge covers, precisely etching markings, text, and patterns onto them. Traditional positioning methods are often single-station operations, allowing only one ink cartridge cover to be positioned and laser-engraved at a time. After engraving one cover, manual replacement and repositioning are required, wasting significant time and resulting in low overall production efficiency. Traditional positioning structures typically only accommodate ink cartridge covers of specific sizes and shapes. When processing different specifications, large-scale adjustments or even replacements of the positioning structure are often necessary, increasing production costs and reducing flexibility and adaptability. Frequent manual loading, unloading, and positioning of ink cartridge covers is labor-intensive, easily leading to operator fatigue and impacting production quality and efficiency. Therefore, a rotary, multi-station automatic positioning structure for laser engraving of ink cartridge covers was designed. Utility Model Content

The rear-end fixed drive structure is bolted to the rear side of the mounting workbench and is connected to the rotating worktable. Multiple sets of multi-joint robotic arms of equal specifications are provided, and the multiple sets of multi-joint robotic arms of equal specifications are fixed to the front side of the rotating worktable at equal circumferential angles.
[0005] Based on the above technical solution, a rotating bearing is provided between the mounting workbench and the rotating workbench.

The gear output rotation drive motor assembly and the contact structure fixing plate are fixed opposite to each other on the inner side of the rear-end fixed plate. The rear-end fixed plate is bolted to the mounting workbench. The contact structure fixing plate has multiple sets of contact structure mounting holes. The conductive contact structure is installed in the corresponding contact structure mounting holes. The gear output rotation drive motor assembly meshes with the rotating wall-mounted gear on the inner side of the wheel-type rotating table. The bottom end of the conductive contact structure is in contact with the embedded conductive coil.
[0007] Based on the above technical solution, the conductive contact structure consists of a round-end conductive rod, a wire fixing bolt, a limiting card, a downward-pressing contact spring, and a spring limiting ring. The top of the round-end conductive rod has a wire fixing groove, and the wire fixing bolt is bolted into the wire fixing groove.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages: This utility model optimizes the setting of the automatic positioning structure for laser engraving of ink cartridge covers. The rotary multi-station design allows ink cartridge cover loading and unloading operations to be performed at other stations while laser engraving is being carried out at one station, which greatly shortens the production cycle and improves production efficiency. The use of a multi-joint robotic arm improves the flexibility of the structure, reduces manual operation, and reduces labor intensity, making it suitable for widespread use.

The rear fixed drive structure 3 is connected to the rotating wall-mounting teeth 7 and the embedded conductive coils 8. The rotating bearing 5 is sleeved on the outer side of the wheel-type rotating platform 6.
[0018] The rear-end fixed drive structure 3 consists of a rear-end fixed plate 9, a gear output rotation drive motor 10, a conductive contact structure 11, and a contact structure fixing plate 12. The gear output rotation drive motor 10 and the contact structure fixing plate 12 are fixed opposite to each other on the inner side of the rear-end fixed plate 9.

The gear output rotation drive motor 10 meshes with the rotating wall-mounted teeth 7 on the inner side of the wheel-type rotating platform 6. The bottom end of the conductive contact structure 11 is in contact with the embedded conductive coil 8.
[0019] The conductive contact structure 11 consists of a round-end conductive rod 14, a wire fixing bolt 15, a limiting card 16, a downward-pressing contact spring 17, and a spring limiting ring 18. The top end of the round-end conductive rod 14 has a wire fixing groove 19, and the wire fixing bolt 15 is bolted into the wire fixing groove 19.

[0020] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The working principle of this structure is to use multiple robotic arms as a worktable for holding and supporting the ink cartridge cover and laser engraving work.
[0021] During installation, this equipment can be installed between the feeding platform with ink cartridge covers on both sides and the transport platform after the ink cartridge covers are processed. The laser engraving equipment should be placed on the top side of this equipment.

[0022] During operation, the gear output drives the motor unit 10, which is connected to the rotating worktable 4. The rotating worktable 4 can rotate within the mounting frame 2. In this case, the rotating worktable 4 can drive the multi-joint robotic arm 1 of the same specification to rotate at the same angular velocity. When it rotates to the ink cartridge cover feeding platform, the multi-joint robotic arm 1 can grip the ink cartridge cover. During the rotation, the ink cartridge cover is transported to the bottom of the corresponding laser engraving equipment, where it is engraved. After the engraving is completed, the multi-joint robotic arm 1 grips the ink cartridge cover and rotates it onto the ink cartridge cover transport structure.
[0023] In the above working process, in order to maintain uninterrupted power supply, it is necessary to ensure that the wheeled rotary table 6 is always connected to the external power source while rotating, so as to ensure the operation of the equal-size multi-joint robotic arm 1. The equal-size multi-joint robotic arm 1 is connected to the embedded conductive coil 8. The round-end conductive rod 14 is always in contact with the embedded conductive coil 8 to ensure power supply. The downward contact spring 17 provides a constant downward pressure. The limit card 16 can limit the excessive displacement of the round-end conductive rod 14, so as to prevent the round-end conductive rod 14 from getting stuck in the wheeled rotary table 6 or from being damaged.
