[0007] The second feeding device includes a second push plate, which pushes the glue plate in the glue plate groove, causing the glue plate to move along the glue plate groove;

[0008] An air knife, the air outlet of which faces the table surface and is aligned with the outlet of the glue plate groove, is configured to blow the glue block extending out of the glue plate groove on the glue plate to a first predetermined angle.

[0009] The feeding mechanism also includes a flipping device, which includes a flipping plate and a flipping cylinder. An air blowing port is fixedly provided on the flipping plate, and the air blowing port faces the table surface. The rubber block blown to the first predetermined angle is blown to the second predetermined angle. Under the drive of the flipping cylinder, the flipping plate presses down and flips the rubber block blown to the second predetermined angle to the third predetermined angle.

[0010] As described above, the first feeding device further includes a first cylinder and a first slide rail, and the first push plate moves along the first slide rail under the push of the first cylinder.

[0011] As described above, in a rubber block feeding device, the second feeding device further includes a second cylinder and a second slide rail, and the second push plate moves along the second slide rail under the push of the second cylinder.

[0012] As described above, in a rubber block feeding device, the rubber sheet hopper is formed by a first bending plate, a second bending plate, a third bending plate, and a fourth bending plate.

[0013] There is a gap between the first bending plate and the second bending plate. A material early warning device is set up to detect the remaining amount of rubber sheet in the rubber sheet hopper through the gap between the first bending plate and the second bending plate.

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be arbitrarily combined with each other.

[0031] The following describes this solution in detail with reference to specific implementation methods and accompanying drawings.

[0032] Example 1:

[0033] Please see Figure 1 , is the adhesive sheet 102 used in one embodiment of this application, wherein Figure 1 (a) is a front view of the adhesive sheet 102. Figure 1(b) is a left view of the glue plate 102. A glue plate 102 includes 36 glue blocks, each of which is 20mm×5mm×6mm in size. Since the glue blocks are not tightly attached to each other, gaps need to be left for subsequent cutting. Therefore, the size of the glue block assembly in the glue plate 102 is slightly larger.

[0034] Please see Figures 2-7 The glue block feeding device in this embodiment includes: glue plate hopper 1, limiting mechanism, cutting tool 6, feeding mechanism and flipping device.

[0035] The glue sheet hopper 1 is fixedly connected to the table 2. There is a discharge port 101 between the glue sheet hopper 1 and the table 2, which allows the glue sheet 102 to be moved out of the glue sheet hopper 1. The glue sheet 102 is filled in the glue sheet hopper 1.

[0036] The limiting mechanism includes a pressure plate 9, which together with the table surface 2 forms a glue plate groove. The glue plate groove is used to limit and position the glue plate 102, so that after the glue plate 102 enters the glue plate groove, it can only move along the direction of the glue plate groove, which facilitates subsequent processing.

[0037] Preferably, the pressure plate 9 is driven by the pressure plate cylinder 901 to achieve flexible pressing and releasing of the rubber plate 102. When the rubber plate 102 is pressed, the movement direction of the rubber plate 102 is restricted to the direction of the rubber plate groove to ensure the accuracy of processing.

[0038] The feeding mechanism includes a first feeding device 3 and a second feeding device 4. The first feeding device 3 includes a first push plate 301, which pushes the rubber sheet 102 in the rubber sheet hopper 1 into the rubber sheet groove by extending into the discharge port 101.

[0039] The second feeding device 4 includes a second pusher plate 401, which pushes the glue plate 102 in the glue plate groove so that the glue plate 102 can move along the glue plate groove.

[0040] The air knife 6 has its air outlet facing the table surface 2 and aligned with the outlet of the glue plate groove. The glue plate 102 moves along the glue plate groove under the push of the second push plate 401. Each time it is pushed out of the glue plate groove, the length is the length of one glue block. That is, each time the second push plate 401 pushes out a row (3) of glue blocks. The air knife 6 blows this row of glue blocks extending out of the glue plate groove to the first predetermined angle.

[0041] In this embodiment, the air knife 6 includes a first air knife 601 and a second air knife 602. The first air knife 601 and the second air knife 602 are respectively disposed on both sides of the outlet of the glue plate groove to prevent the glue block from flipping at different angles due to air outlet from one side, which would affect subsequent processing.

[0042] The feeding mechanism also includes a flipping device 8, which includes a flipping plate 801 and a flipping cylinder 803. An air blowing port 802 is fixedly provided on the flipping plate 801, and the air blowing port 802 faces the table surface 2. Air is blown through the air blowing port 802 to blow the rubber block blown to the first predetermined angle to the second predetermined angle. The flipping cylinder 803 drives the flipping plate 801 to move, pressing down and flipping the rubber block blown to the second predetermined angle to the third predetermined angle.

[0043] Furthermore, the relationship between the first predetermined angle, the second predetermined angle, and the third predetermined angle is: first predetermined angle < second predetermined angle < third predetermined angle.

[0044] Furthermore, the first feeding device 3 also includes a first cylinder 302 and a first slide rail 303, and the first push plate 301 moves along the first slide rail 303 under the push of the first cylinder 302.

[0045] Preferably, the width and height of the discharge port 101 are slightly larger than the length and height of the rubber plate 102. Undoubtedly, the discharge port 101 is rectangular, with its short side being the width and its long side being the height. Figure 1 In (a), the long side of the rubber sheet 102 is the length of the rubber sheet 102. Figure 1 In (b), the side marked "6" is the height of the rubber plate 102. This design ensures that the first push plate 301 can push out only one rubber plate 102 at a time, thus guaranteeing processing accuracy and preventing the material plate 102 from getting stuck at the discharge port 101 and causing the production line to stop.

[0046] Furthermore, the second feeding device 4 also includes a second cylinder 402 and a second slide rail 403. The second push plate 401 moves along the second slide rail 403 under the push of the second cylinder 402. During the movement of the rubber plate 102, the accuracy of the movement direction is high. Adding the slide rail can ensure that the movement direction of the push plate does not deviate.

[0047] The rubber sheet hopper 1 is formed by a first bending plate 103, a second bending plate 104, a third bending plate 105 and a fourth bending plate 106. There is a gap between the first bending plate 103 and the second bending plate 104. A material warning device 5 is provided to detect the remaining amount of rubber sheet 102 in the rubber sheet hopper 1 through the gap between the first bending plate 103 and the second bending plate 104.

[0048] Preferably, the material early warning device 5 includes a first early warning device 502, a second early warning device 503, and a support plate 501. The support plate 501 is fixedly connected to the table surface 2. The first early warning device 502 and the second early warning device 503 are fixedly installed on the support plate 501, with the detection position of the first early warning device 502 higher than that of the second early warning device 503. The first early warning device 502 issues an alarm when the remaining amount of the glue sheet 102 is low, prompting the worker to add material. At this time, the remaining amount of glue sheet 102 is low but will not cause the equipment to stop production. The second early warning device 503 issues an alarm when it detects that the glue sheet 102 is about to run out. If glue sheet 102 is not added immediately, the equipment will stop production. By providing two alarms, the first early warning device 502 and the second early warning device 503 prevent workers from forgetting to add material, causing machine downtime and requiring restart, thus avoiding resource waste.

[0049] Preferably, gaps are provided between the second bending plate 104 and the third bending plate 105, the third bending plate 105 and the fourth bending plate 106, and the fourth bending plate 106 and the first bending plate 103, so that workers can easily observe the remaining amount of rubber sheet 102 in the rubber sheet hopper 1.

[0050] Furthermore, the limiting mechanism also includes a stop cylinder 7, which is fixedly mounted on a support plate 701. The support plate 701 is fixedly connected to the table surface 2, making the stop cylinder 7 parallel to the table surface 2. The stop cylinder 7 is fixedly connected to a flipping block cylinder 803. During operation, the piston rod of the stop cylinder 7 extends outward and drives the flipping block cylinder 803 to move to the stop position in a direction parallel to the table surface 2. The plane of the flipping block 801 facing the rubber plate groove is the stop plate. The stop plate abuts against the outer edge of the rubber plate 102 at the stop position, so that each time the second push plate 401 pushes the rubber plate 102 to move, only one row of rubber blocks extends out of the rubber plate groove.

[0051] The stop cylinder 7 is fixedly installed on the support body 701 and is fixedly connected to the flipping cylinder 803. The stop cylinder 7 is used to drive the flipping cylinder 803 to limit the discharge length of the rubber sheet 102. Preferably, the extension and retraction of the stop cylinder 7 is fixed to the length of one rubber block. In this embodiment, the extension and retraction of the stop cylinder 7 is fixed to 5mm. The pressure plate 9 is driven by the pressure plate cylinder 901. When the pressure plate cylinder 901 extends, the pressure plate 9 and the table surface 2 form a rubber sheet groove to press the rubber sheet 102. When the pressure plate cylinder 902 retracts, the pressure plate 9 is pulled up, which facilitates the rubber sheet 102 to enter the rubber sheet groove.

[0052] Working process: After ensuring that there are sufficient rubber sheets 102 in the rubber sheet hopper 1, start the machine. The first cylinder 302 of the first feeding device 3 drives the first push plate 301 to move along the first slide 303. The first push plate 301 pushes out a piece of rubber sheet 102 from the rubber sheet hopper 1 through the discharge port 101 and pushes it into the rubber sheet groove between the pressure plate 9 and the table 2. The second cylinder 402 of the second feeding device 4 drives the second push plate 401 to move along the second slide 2. The second push plate 401 pushes the rubber sheet 102 located in the rubber sheet groove. At this time, the stop cylinder 7 extends and the turning cylinder... When cylinder 803 extends and pressure plate cylinder 901 retracts, and the rubber plate 102 abuts against the stop plate side of the flipping plate 801, the flipping cylinder 803 retracts, the stop cylinder 7 retracts, and the pressure plate cylinder 901 extends, pressing the rubber plate 102 while activating the air knife 6 to blow the extended rubber block to the first predetermined angle. The rubber block blown to the first predetermined angle is then blown to the second predetermined angle through the air outlet 802. Then, the flipping cylinder 803 extends, driving the flipping plate 801 to flip the rubber block at the second predetermined angle to the third predetermined angle, thus completing the rubber block feeding process.

[0053] Example 2:

[0054] Please see Figure 8 and Figure 9 This application also provides a glue block bonding device, including a glue block flipping detection device 11, a glue block gripper 12, and a gripper cylinder 13. The glue block flipping detection device 11 faces the glue plate slot outlet and is used to detect whether a glue block has flipped to a third predetermined angle. If a glue block has flipped to the third predetermined angle, the gripper cylinder 13 extends, causing the glue block gripper 12 to open. The mobile robot 10 then moves the glue block bonding device to the glue plate slot outlet. At this time, the gripper of the glue block gripper 12 is aligned with the glue block that has flipped to the third predetermined angle. Figure 9 As shown, the gripper cylinder 13 then retracts, causing the rubber block gripper 12 to clamp the rubber block. Finally, the mobile robot 10 moves the rubber block gripper 12, which clamps the rubber block, to a predetermined position for automatic bonding of the rubber block.

[0055] Preferably, the air circuit of the telescopic cylinder of the pneumatic gripper cylinder 13 is equipped with a pressure reducing valve, which enables the pneumatic gripper cylinder 13 to have a certain amount of floating while telescopically extending and retracting, ensuring the stability of the clamping force on the rubber block, and also avoiding excessive pressure on the equipment frame and the car sunroof, thus preventing deformation of the equipment frame and the car sunroof during assembly.

[0056] Preferably, the glue block flipping detection device 11 is a camera device, which captures images of the glue block and uses machine vision to identify the flipping angle of the glue block.
