Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bonding equipment, and more particularly to a robotic arm bonding machine. Background Technology

[0002] A laminating machine is a commonly used piece of equipment in factories. Its main function is to laminate multiple layers of materials together to form a complete composite material.

[0003] The materials are generally in roll form and have diverse functions. Examples include a substrate with an adhesive layer, a functional intermediate material, and an outer protective material. Laminating these materials together requires a laminating machine. However, the lamination process for roll materials varies depending on the type of functional film. When laminating other functional films, unwinding and rewinding mechanisms can be used. However, when laminating smaller films, such as functional films typically rectangular or circular, unwinding alone is insufficient. These smaller films are often stacked.

[0004] Current production methods rely on manual stacking of materials followed by pressing with rollers to bond two or more layers together. This process is inefficient, and the manual placement results in significant positional deviations, failing to meet high-precision production requirements. Furthermore, manual placement easily contaminates the product and can lead to defective laminated products, wasting raw materials. The process also requires a large number of workers for adjustments and adjustments, increasing production costs while maintaining low efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a robotic arm bonding machine.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is: a robotic arm bonding machine, comprising:

[0007] A frame, with a worktable on the upper surface of the frame, and at least one fitting station on the rear side of the worktable in the working direction;

[0008] The first feeding assembly is mounted on the frame and includes a first feeding roller and a first take-up roller arranged in sequence. A first roll of material is placed on the first feeding roller and fed out. The end of the first roll of material is taken up by the first take-up roller, and the middle part of the first roll of material passes through the bonding station.

[0009] The second feeding assembly is mounted on the frame and includes a second feeding roller mounted on the frame. The second feeding roller is loaded with a second roll of material and feeds the material through the bonding station. The first roll of material and the second roll of material are bonded together at the bonding station.

[0010] A material picking mechanism is also provided on the frame. This material picking mechanism moves the material onto the first roll of material on the worktable. The first roll of material, the material, and the second roll of material are bonded together at the bonding station. The material picking mechanism includes a material picking and moving unit. The material picking end of the material picking and moving unit drives the material to move onto the worktable.

[0011] Furthermore, a vacuum suction cup or gripper is installed at the material handling end. The gripper can be a flexible gripper, and the vacuum suction cup can control the weight of the adsorbed material through the vacuum level.

[0012] Furthermore, the material handling mechanism also includes a feeding unit, which includes:

[0013] The feeding rack is equipped with at least one feeding channel.

[0014] A feeding assembly includes a feeding plate, which is configured to correspond one-to-one with the feeding channel. A feeding drive unit is mounted on the feeding plate, which drives the feeding plate upwards and moves the material to the upper end of the feeding channel; and

[0015] The feeding detector faces the upper end of the feeding channel and is electrically connected to the pushing drive unit. When the picking end removes the material, the feeding detector detects that the material has been removed, and the pushing drive unit continues to drive the material upward. When the material is detected to be in place, the drive stops. This process repeats to ensure that the material is always at the top of the feeding channel, facilitating the operation of the picking end.

[0016] Furthermore, the feeding detector can be either a photoelectric sensor or an infrared sensor. The appropriate sensor can be selected based on actual needs.

[0017] Furthermore, the feeding channel is formed by two feeding vertical plates and at least two feeding short plates. The feeding short plates are located between the two feeding vertical plates, and two connected feeding short plates form a feeding channel. By setting multiple feeding short plates, feeding channels can be set separately, and the feeding short plates can be inserted and set on the feeding vertical plates. Different channel lengths can be selected according to the length of the material. Materials are stacked in the feeding channel. When setting two or more feeding channels, the same type of material or different materials can be stacked, depending on the actual needs.

[0018] The pusher plates can be set one by one in the feeding channel, or partially set in the feeding channel with a clearance notch on the other side to allow the pusher plates to move.

[0019] Furthermore, observation notches are provided on the feeding vertical plate. These notches allow for observation of whether the materials are stacked correctly and whether material removal is complete, facilitating subsequent manual feeding and maintenance.

[0020] Furthermore, the material handling and moving unit is a multi-axis robot or a moving module composed of at least two sets of linear modules. When two sets of linear modules are set, they are set along the vertical direction and along the width direction of the roll material, respectively. When three sets are set, they are set to move in the length, width, and height directions, which provides greater flexibility. However, for this bonding operation, the first roll material is fed under the drive of the first feeding component, so the length direction of the roll material does not need to move, and the linear modules only need to move in the width and height directions of the roll material.

[0021] Furthermore, the surface of the worktable is provided with vacuum adsorption holes, which are connected to a vacuum adsorption assembly. These vacuum adsorption holes allow the roll material to be adsorbed onto the worktable surface, providing a stable guarantee for the material handling mechanism to place the material on the worktable, and ensuring subsequent high-precision bonding.

[0022] Furthermore, a safety light curtain is installed at the front of the workbench. The material handling mechanism is located at the rear, and the safety light curtain at the front ensures the safety of manual operation. When human intervention is detected, the operation is stopped immediately.

[0023] Furthermore, an operating table is also set up on the front side of the workbench.

[0024] Furthermore, a suction feeding assembly is installed on the frame behind the first feeding roller in the conveying direction. The suction feeding assembly includes a suction conveying roller and a suction plate. The suction conveying roller is rotatably mounted, and a negative pressure assembly is installed on the suction plate. The negative pressure adsorption ensures the stability of the first roll material during the conveying process.

[0025] Furthermore, the bonding station includes a bonding frame mounted on a machine frame, on which two bonding rollers are fitted together, with a bonding channel between the two rollers. At least two rolls of material pass through the bonding channel and are bonded together under the action of the two bonding rollers. By setting up the bonding station, bonding of two or more materials can be achieved, ensuring smooth bonding.

[0026] Furthermore, at least two bonding stations are provided. By setting up multiple bonding stations, multiple laminations of two types of roll materials are achieved, and sequential lamination of three materials can also be realized, achieving multi-layer composite processing.

[0027] Furthermore, the first feeding roller of the first feeding assembly is located on one side of the frame, and the first receiving roller is located on the other side of the frame. After the bonding station is completed, the material is received by the first receiving roller.

[0028] Furthermore, the second feeding component is located directly above the first roll and is vertically oriented towards the first roll during unwinding, achieving lamination through the bonding station.

[0029] Furthermore, the first or second feeding assembly also includes at least one guide roller, which guides the movement of the roll material. This ensures the stability of the roll material during movement.

[0030] Furthermore, a waste roller is also provided. Depending on the actual needs of the roll material, it is optional to install a waste roller for winding up the release film, etc.

[0031] Furthermore, the first feed roller, the first take-up roller, and the second feed roller are each equipped with a motor, which is used to unwind and rewind the material, thereby controlling the different rolls.

[0032] The beneficial technical effects of this utility model are as follows: the first feeding component conveys the material through the first roll of material. At the workbench, the material-picking mechanism moves the stacked material onto the first roll of material, and the second roll of material is unloaded. At the bonding station, the first roll of material, the material, and the second roll of material are bonded together. After bonding, the first take-up roller collects the material. The fully automatic material picking and unloading improves the stability of material transfer, ensures the accuracy of the bonding position (within 0.2mm), improves production efficiency, avoids manual contamination of materials, and reduces production costs.

A first roll of material is placed on the first feeding roller 4 and fed out. The end of the first roll of material is taken out by the first take-up roller 41, and the middle part of the first roll of material passes through the bonding station 3.

[0055] The second feeding assembly is mounted on the frame 1. The second feeding assembly includes a second feeding roller 5 mounted on the frame 1. The second feeding roller 5 is used to feed the second roll material, and the second roll material passes through the bonding station 3. The first roll material and the second roll material are bonded together at the bonding station 3.

[0056] A material picking mechanism 6 is also provided on the frame 1. The material picking mechanism 6 moves the material to the first roll of material on the workbench 2. The first roll of material, the material, and the second roll of material are bonded together at the bonding station 3. The material picking mechanism 6 includes a material picking and moving unit 61. The material picking end of the material picking and moving unit 61 drives the material to move onto the workbench 2.

[0057] Furthermore, a vacuum suction cup 62 or grippers are provided at the material handling end. The grippers can be flexible grippers, and the vacuum suction cup 62 can control the weight of the adsorbed material by controlling the vacuum level.

[0058] Furthermore, the material handling mechanism 6 also includes a feeding unit 63, which includes:

[0059] The feeding rack 631 is provided with at least one feeding channel 632.

[0060] The material feeding assembly includes a material feeding plate 633, which is correspondingly arranged with a feeding channel 632. A material feeding drive unit 634 is provided on the material feeding plate 633, which drives the material feeding plate 633 to move upwards and move the material to the upper end of the feeding channel 632.

[0061] A feeding detector 635 faces the upper end of the feeding channel 632 and is electrically connected to the pushing drive unit 634. When the picking end removes the material, the feeding detector 635 detects that the material has been removed, and the pushing drive unit 634 continues to drive the material upward. When the material is detected to be in place, the drive stops. This process repeats to ensure that the material is always at the top of the feeding channel 632, facilitating the operation of the picking end.

[0062] Furthermore, the feeding detector 635 can be either a photoelectric sensor or an infrared sensor. The appropriate sensor can be selected based on actual needs.

[0063] Furthermore, the feeding channel 632 is formed by two feeding vertical plates 6321 and at least two feeding short plates 6322. The feeding short plates 6322 are located between the two feeding vertical plates 6321, and two connected feeding short plates 6322 constitute one feeding channel 632. By setting multiple feeding short plates 6322, the feeding channels 632 can be set separately, and the feeding short plates 6322 can be inserted into the feeding vertical plates 6321. Different channel lengths can be selected according to the length of the material. Materials are stacked within the feeding channel 632. When two or more feeding channels 632 are set, the same type of material or different materials can be stacked, depending on the actual needs.

[0064] The pusher plates 633 can be set one by one in the feeding channel 632, or they can be partially set in the feeding channel 632, with a clearance notch on the other side for the pusher plates 633 to move.

[0065] Furthermore, an observation notch 6323 is provided on the feeding vertical plate 6321. The observation notch 6323 allows observation of whether the materials are stacked normally and whether material removal is completed, facilitating subsequent manual feeding and maintenance.

[0066] Furthermore, the material handling and moving unit 61 is a multi-axis robot or a moving module composed of at least two sets of linear modules. When two sets of linear modules are set, they are set along the vertical direction and along the width direction of the roll material, respectively. When three sets are set, they are set to move in the length, width, and height directions, which provides greater flexibility. However, for this bonding operation, the first roll material is fed under the drive of the first feeding component, so the length direction of the roll material does not need to be moved, and the linear modules only need to move in the width and height directions of the roll material.

[0067] Furthermore, vacuum adsorption holes 23 are provided on the surface of the workbench 2, which are connected to a vacuum adsorption assembly. The vacuum adsorption holes 23 allow the roll material to be adsorbed onto the surface of the workbench 2, providing a stable guarantee for the material handling mechanism 6 to place the material on the workbench 2, and ensuring subsequent high-precision bonding. A safety light curtain 21 is installed on the front side of the workbench 2. The material handling mechanism 6 handles material from the rear, while the safety light curtain 21 on the front ensures the safety of manual operation, stopping work immediately upon detection of human intervention. An operating table 22 is also provided on the front side of the workbench 2.

[0068] A suction feeding assembly 7 is installed on the frame 1 on the rear side of the first feeding roller 4 in the conveying direction. The suction feeding assembly 7 includes a suction conveying roller and a suction plate. The suction conveying roller is rotatably mounted, and a negative pressure assembly is installed on the suction plate. The negative pressure adsorption ensures the stability of the first roll material during the conveying process.

[0069] Furthermore, the bonding station 3 includes: a bonding frame 31 mounted on the frame 1, on which two bonding rollers 32 are fitted, with a bonding channel between the two bonding rollers 32. At least two rolls of material pass through the bonding channel and are bonded under the action of the two bonding rollers 32. By setting up the bonding station 3, bonding of two or more materials can be achieved, ensuring smooth bonding. At least two bonding stations 3 are set up. By setting up multiple bonding stations 3, multiple laminations of two types of rolls can be achieved, and sequential lamination of three types of materials can also be achieved, realizing multi-layer composite processing. The first feeding roller 4 of the first feeding assembly is located on one side of the frame 1, and the first receiving roller 41 is located on the other side of the frame 1. After lamination at the bonding station 3, the material is received by the first receiving roller 41.

[0070] Furthermore, the second feeding component is located directly above the first roll and is vertically oriented towards the first roll during unwinding, achieving lamination through the bonding station 3.

[0071] Furthermore, the first or second feeding assembly also includes at least one guide roller, which guides the movement of the roll material. This ensures the stability of the roll material during movement.

[0072] Furthermore, a waste roller is also provided. Depending on the actual needs of the roll material, the presence or absence of a waste roller can be selected for tasks such as winding up the release film. The first feed roller 4, the first take-up roller 41, and the second feed roller 5 are each equipped with a motor. The motors are used for unwinding and winding to control different roll materials.

[0073] The first feeding assembly conveys the material via the first roll. At the workbench 2, the picking mechanism 6 moves the stacked material onto the first roll, and the second roll is unloaded. At the bonding station 3, the first roll, the material, and the second roll are bonded together. After bonding, the first take-up roller 41 collects the material. Fully automated picking and unloading improves the stability of material transfer, ensures precise bonding (within 0.2mm), increases production efficiency, avoids manual contamination of materials, and reduces production costs.

[0074] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
