Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of glue dispensing technology, specifically to a glue dispensing device and glue dispensing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] To improve the accuracy of glue dispensing operations, the diameter of the needle connecting the dispensing component has been made smaller and smaller. However, in current glue dispensing operations, the needle is often directly inserted into the dispensing hole. Due to the small size of the needle, the end of the needle lacks rigidity and is prone to bending and deformation, resulting in low accuracy of the needle insertion into the dispensing hole. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a dispensing device and dispensing equipment to improve the accuracy of needle insertion into the dispensing hole.

[0004] This application provides a dispensing device, including:

[0005] A base is provided for mounting on a transmission device and has an installation slot. The transmission device is used to drive the dispensing mold through the base and to drive the dispensing mold into the installation slot. The dispensing mold has a dispensing hole.

[0006] A positioning seat is disposed on the base and mounted in the mounting slot;

[0007] The glue dispensing mechanism includes a glue dispensing component and a needle. The glue dispensing component is disposed on the positioning seat, and the needle is connected to and communicates with the glue dispensing component.

[0008] A guide seat is disposed on the base and has a guide hole. The guide seat is sleeved on the end of the glue injection assembly near the needle and the end of the needle near the glue injection assembly through the guide hole, and the guide hole is coaxial with the needle.

[0009] When the glue-dispensing mold is placed in the mounting groove, the guide hole and the glue-dispensing hole are coaxially arranged, and the end of the needle away from the glue-dispensing assembly is inserted into the glue-dispensing hole.

[0010] When the above-mentioned dispensing device is in operation, the dispensing device can first be fixed to the transmission device via the base. The transmission device then moves the dispensing mold to the bottom of the mounting groove, and then moves the dispensing mold upward into the mounting groove until the needle is inserted into the dispensing hole of the dispensing mold, so as to complete the subsequent dispensing operation.

[0011] In the aforementioned glue-dispensing device, both the end of the glue-dispensing component near the needle and the end of the needle near the glue-dispensing component are held in the guide hole, thus fixing the connection area between the needle and the glue-dispensing component. This enhances the strength of the needle when it is inserted into the glue-dispensing hole, thereby preventing the needle from bending or deforming. Furthermore, when the glue-dispensing mold is placed in the mounting groove, the glue-dispensing hole and the guide hole are coaxially arranged, making the needle held in the guide hole coaxial with the glue-dispensing hole. This ensures that the needle is accurately inserted into the glue-dispensing hole, thereby improving the accuracy of the needle insertion into the glue-dispensing hole.

[0012] In some embodiments, the guide seat includes:

[0013] A fixing member is provided on the base and has a fixing groove, the fixing groove passing through the fixing member along the direction from the base toward the positioning seat;

[0014] A guide sleeve is detachably disposed in the fixing groove. One end of the guide sleeve extends out of the fixing groove. The guide sleeve has a first locking hole and a second locking hole arranged coaxially. The first locking hole is configured to hold the end of the glue injection assembly near the needle. The second locking hole is connected to the first locking hole and is configured to hold the end of the needle near the glue injection assembly. The second locking hole and the first locking hole form the guide hole, and the inner diameter of the second locking hole is smaller than the inner diameter of the first locking hole.

[0015] In some embodiments, the fastener includes:

[0016] A fixing body is disposed on the base and located on one side of the mounting groove;

[0017] An extension body connects to the fixing body and extends into the mounting groove;

[0018] The mounting body is connected to the end of the extension body away from the fixing body, and the fixing groove is formed in the mounting body.

[0019] In some embodiments, the positioning base includes:

[0020] A positioning element is disposed on the base and mounted on the mounting slot;

[0021] A support member is provided, which is connected to the positioning member and extends in a direction away from the positioning member and away from the mounting groove. The glue injection assembly is connected to the support member.

[0022] In some embodiments, the positioning element includes:

[0023] The main body is disposed on the base and mounted on the mounting slot, and the main body is connected to the support member;

[0024] Two reinforcing bodies are connected to the main body and spaced apart, and the guide hole is located between the two reinforcing bodies.

[0025] In some embodiments, the glue injection assembly is slidably connected to the positioning seat along the direction from the base toward the positioning seat.

[0026] In some embodiments, the dispensing assembly includes:

[0027] A sliding member is slidably connected to the positioning seat along the direction from the base toward the positioning seat;

[0028] An adjusting component is rotatably connected to the positioning seat and threadedly connected to the sliding component;

[0029] The dispensing component is disposed on the sliding component and connected to the needle.

[0030] In some embodiments, the dispensing apparatus further includes:

[0031] Profiling mold;

[0032] A base is disposed on the mold and has a base groove on the surface opposite to the mold;

[0033] The calibration component is detachably mounted in the base groove;

[0034] A displacement sensor is detachably mounted on the base groove;

[0035] When the contour mold and the base are disposed in the mounting groove, the base groove and the guide hole are respectively disposed in the sliding direction of the sliding member.

[0036] In some embodiments, the dispensing apparatus further includes:

[0037] A lifting mechanism is used to drive the contour mold and the base into or out of the mounting slot.

[0038] This application also provides a dispensing device, including:

[0039] The aforementioned dispensing device;

[0040] A conveying device is used to drive the glue-dispensing mold through the glue-dispensing device and to drive the glue-dispensing mold into the mounting groove. The glue-dispensing mold has a glue-dispensing hole.

[0041] A glue supply device is used to inject glue into the glue injection assembly.

[0042] In the dispensing device of the aforementioned dispensing equipment, both the end of the dispensing component near the needle and the end of the needle near the dispensing component are held in the guide hole, thus fixing the connection area between the needle and the dispensing component. This enhances the strength of the needle when it is inserted into the dispensing hole, thereby preventing the needle from bending or deforming. Furthermore, when the dispensing mold is set in the mounting groove, the dispensing hole and the guide hole are coaxially arranged. Therefore, the needle held in the guide hole forms a coaxial shape with the dispensing hole, ensuring that the needle is accurately inserted into the dispensing hole, thereby improving the accuracy of the needle insertion into the dispensing hole.

Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0051] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the term "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, or a connection that allows communication between the two; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be the internal communication of two elements or the interaction between two elements. In the description of this application, it should be noted that "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise expressly and specifically limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0052] The embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0053] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application provides a dispensing device 100, which includes a base 110, a positioning seat 120, a dispensing assembly 130, and a guide seat 140.

[0054] Base 110 is used for mounting on transmission device 200 (see...) Figure 6 The base 110 has an installation groove 110a. The transmission device 200 is used to drive the dispensing mold through the base 110 and can also drive the dispensing mold into the installation groove 110a. The dispensing mold has a dispensing hole. The positioning seat 120 is set on the base 110 and supported in the installation groove 110a. The dispensing assembly 130 includes a dispensing assembly 131 and a needle 132. The dispensing assembly 131 is set on the positioning seat 120. The needle 132 is connected to and communicates with the dispensing assembly 131. The guide seat 140 is set on the base 110. The guide seat 140 has a guide hole 140a. The guide seat 140 is sleeved on the end of the dispensing assembly 131 near the needle 132 and the end of the needle 132 near the dispensing assembly 131 through the guide hole 140a. The guide hole 140a and the needle 132 are coaxially arranged. When the glue-dispensing mold is set in the mounting groove 110a, the guide hole 140a and the glue-dispensing hole 200a are coaxially arranged, and the end of the needle 133 away from the glue-dispensing component 132 is inserted into the guide hole 140a.

[0055] For example, when the above-mentioned dispensing device 100 is in operation, the dispensing device 100 can first be fixed to the transmission device 200 by the base 110. After the transmission device drives the dispensing mold to move to the bottom of the mounting groove 110a, it drives the dispensing mold upward into the mounting groove 110a until the needle 132 is inserted into the dispensing hole of the dispensing mold, so as to complete the subsequent dispensing operation.

[0056] In the aforementioned glue-dispensing device 100, the end of the glue-dispensing component 132 near the needle 133 and the end of the needle 133 near the glue-dispensing component 132 are both held in the guide hole 140a, thereby fixing the connection area between the needle 133 and the glue-dispensing component 132. This enhances the strength of the needle 133 when it is inserted into the glue-dispensing hole, thus preventing the needle 132 from bending or deforming. Furthermore, when the glue-dispensing mold is set in the mounting groove 110a, the glue-dispensing hole and the guide hole 140a are coaxially arranged, so that the needle 132 held in the guide hole 140a is coaxial with the glue-dispensing hole. This ensures that the needle 132 is accurately inserted into the glue-dispensing hole, thereby improving the accuracy of the needle 132 being inserted into the glue-dispensing hole.

[0057] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the guide seat 140 includes a fixing member 141 and a guide sleeve 142. The fixing member 141 is disposed on the base 110 and has a fixing groove 141a. The fixing groove 141a passes through the fixing member 141 in the direction from the base 110 to the positioning seat 120. The guide sleeve 142 is detachably disposed in the fixing groove 141a, and one end of the guide sleeve 142 extends out of the fixing groove 141a. The guide sleeve 142 has a first locking hole 142a and a second locking hole 142b coaxially arranged. The first locking hole 142a is configured to hold the end of the dispensing assembly 131 near the needle 132. The second locking hole 142b communicates with the first locking hole 142a and is configured to hold the end of the needle 132 near the dispensing assembly 131. The second locking hole 142b and the first locking hole 142a form a guide hole 140a, and the inner diameter of the second locking hole 142b is smaller than the inner diameter of the first locking hole 142a.

[0058] Therefore, the guide sleeve 142 is detachably connected to the fixing member 141, facilitating the replacement of different types of guide sleeves 142 to improve the compatibility of the guide hole 140a with the types of needles 132 and expand the compatibility range of the guide seat 140. In addition, the inner diameter of the second locking hole 142b is smaller than the inner diameter of the first locking hole 142a, making the guide hole 140a have a stepped structure, which is beneficial to the stability of the guide sleeve 142 in fixing the glue injection assembly 131 and the needle 132.

[0059] For example, the outer surface of the guide sleeve 142 may also be stepped along the axial direction of the guide hole 140a, and the first locking hole 142a may also be stepped, so as to improve the stability of fixing the glue injection assembly 131.

[0060] Please see Figure 3 In some embodiments, the fastener 141 includes a fastener 1411, an extension 1412, and a mounting body 1413. The fastener 1411 is disposed on the base 110 and is located on one side of the mounting groove 110a. The extension 1412 is connected to the fastener 1411 and extends to the mounting groove 110a. The mounting body 1413 is connected to the end of the extension 1412 away from the fastener 1411. The fastener groove 141a is formed in the mounting body 1413.

[0061] Therefore, the fastener 141 with the above-mentioned configuration has a simple structure and low processing difficulty, which helps to reduce the manufacturing cost of the fastener 141.

[0062] For example, the fixing body 1411, the extension body 1412 and the mounting body 1413 are integrated into one structure to reduce the processing difficulty of the fixing member 141.

[0063] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the positioning base 120 includes a positioning member 121 and a support member 122. The positioning member 121 is disposed on the base 110 and mounted on the mounting groove 110a. The support member 122 is connected to the positioning member 121 and extends in a direction away from the positioning member 121 and away from the mounting groove 110a. The glue injection assembly 131 is connected to the support member 122.

[0064] Therefore, through the above-mentioned arrangement, sufficient installation space can be formed in the support 122 to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the glue injection assembly 130.

[0065] In this embodiment, the support member 122 is approximately L-shaped.

[0066] In some embodiments, the positioning member 121 includes a main body 1211 and two reinforcing bodies 1212. The main body 1211 is disposed on the base 110 and mounted on the mounting groove 110a, and the main body 1211 is connected to the support member 122. The two reinforcing bodies 1212 are respectively connected to the main body 1211, and the two reinforcing bodies 1212 are spaced apart. The guide hole 140a is located between the two reinforcing bodies 1212.

[0067] Therefore, through the above-mentioned arrangement, the positioning component 121 is roughly U-shaped, which helps to improve the connection stability between the positioning component 121 and the base 110.

[0068] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3In some embodiments, the dispensing assembly 131 and the support 122 are slidably connected along the direction from the base 110 to the positioning seat 120, so as to adjust the position of the needle 132 relative to the mounting groove 110a, thereby increasing the types of dispensing molds that the needle 132 can be adapted to.

[0069] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the dispensing assembly 131 includes a slider 1311, an adjusting member 1312, and a dispensing member 1313. The slider 1311 is slidably connected to the support member 122 of the positioning seat 120 along the direction from the base 110 to the positioning seat 120. The adjusting member 1312 is rotatably connected to the support member 122 of the positioning seat 120 and threadedly connected to the slider 1311. The dispensing member 1313 is disposed on the slider 1311 and connected to the needle 132. Exemplarily, the adjusting member 1312 may be a bolt.

[0070] Therefore, by rotating the adjusting member 1312, the sliding member 1311 can move relative to the positioning seat 120. The structure is simple and helps to reduce the manufacturing cost of the glue injection assembly 131.

[0071] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the dispensing device 100 further includes a contour mold 150, a base 160, a calibration element 170, and a displacement sensor 180. The base 160 is disposed on the contour mold 150, and a base groove 160a is formed on the surface of the base 160 facing away from the contour mold 150. The calibration element 170 is detachably disposed in the base groove 160a, and the displacement sensor 180 is detachably disposed in the base groove 160a. When the contour mold 150 and the base 160 are disposed within the mounting groove 110a, the base groove 160a and the guide hole 140a are correspondingly disposed in the sliding direction of the slider 1311.

[0072] Specifically, before performing the potting operation, the calibration piece 170 can be placed in the base groove 160a, and the contour mold 150, base 160, and calibration piece 170 can be driven into the mounting groove 110a until the calibration piece 170 abuts against the needle 132 (see...). Figure 4 Then, the calibration piece 170 is replaced with the displacement sensor 180, and the displacement sensor 180 is brought into contact with the needle tip 132 (see...). Figure 5The height of needle 132 relative to base 110 is recorded. Based on the parameters of the potting mold and the height of needle 132 relative to base 110, the required adjustment height of needle 132 is determined. Based on this adjustment height, the adjusting component 1312 is rotated to drive the injection component 1313 and needle 132 to move relative to base 110 via the sliding component 1311, thereby adjusting the height of needle 132. The working principle or process of determining the required adjustment height of needle 132 based on the parameters of the potting mold and the height of needle 132 relative to base 110 can be directly obtained from published literature and will not be elaborated here.

[0073] Therefore, through the above settings, the height of the needle 132 relative to the base 110 can be adjusted based on different types of dispensing molds before the dispensing operation of the dispensing device 100, thereby expanding the compatibility of the dispensing device 100 and improving the accuracy of dispensing.

[0074] In some embodiments, the dispensing apparatus 100 further includes a lifting mechanism (not shown) for moving the contour mold 150 and the base 160 into or out of the mounting slot 110a. Exemplarily, the lifting mechanism may be a robotic arm.

[0075] Please see Figure 6 This application also provides a dispensing device 1000, including a conveying device 200, a dispensing device 300, and the aforementioned dispensing device 100. The conveying device 200 is used to drive the dispensing mold through the dispensing device 100 and to drive the dispensing mold into the mounting groove 110a. The dispensing mold has a dispensing hole 200a. The dispensing device 300 is disposed on one side of the conveying device 200 and is used to inject adhesive into the dispensing assembly 131. Exemplarily, the conveying device 200 can be a conveying structure with a conveyor belt, a horizontal drive assembly, and a vertical drive assembly. The horizontal drive assembly drives the dispensing mold to move horizontally so that the dispensing mold flows through the dispensing device 100, and the vertical drive assembly drives the dispensing mold to enter or leave the mounting groove 110a. The dispensing device 300 can be a dispensing machine.

[0076] In the aforementioned glue-dispensing device 1000, the end of the glue-dispensing component 131 near the needle 132 and the end of the needle 132 near the glue-dispensing component 131 are both held in the guide hole 140a, thereby fixing the connection area between the needle 133 and the glue-dispensing component 132. This enhances the strength of the needle 133 when it is inserted into the glue-dispensing hole, thus preventing the needle 132 from bending or deforming. Furthermore, when the glue-dispensing mold is set in the mounting groove 110a, the glue-dispensing hole 200a and the guide hole 140a are coaxially arranged, so that the needle 133 held in the guide hole 140a and the glue-dispensing hole 200a are coaxial, ensuring that the needle 132 is accurately inserted into the glue-dispensing hole, thereby improving the accuracy of the needle 132 being inserted into the glue-dispensing hole.

[0077] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this application is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that this application can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this application. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this application is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be embraced within this application.

[0078] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application and are not intended to limit it.
