[0021] To fully understand this application, detailed steps and structures will be presented in the following description to illustrate the technical solution of this application. Preferred embodiments of this application are described in detail below; however, in addition to these detailed descriptions, this application may have other implementation methods.

[0022] Please refer to Figures 1-5As shown in the preferred embodiment of this application, a multi-mode compatible adhesive applicator includes a mounting frame 1, a feeding assembly 2, a clamping and conveying assembly 3, a cutting assembly 4, an applicating wheel 5, and a receiving assembly 6. The feeding assembly 2 includes a feeding tray 21 mounted on the mounting frame 1 and a first motor, which drives the feeding tray 21 to rotate to provide adhesive tape 7. The clamping and conveying assembly 3 is mounted on the mounting frame 1 and is used to convey the adhesive tape 7. The cutting assembly 4 is located below the clamping and conveying assembly 3 and includes a detachably connected cutter 41 for cutting the adhesive tape 7. The applicating wheel 5 is used to attach the adhesive tape 7 to the target position. The receiving assembly 6 is located opposite the feeding assembly 2 on one side of the applicating wheel 5, and both the receiving assembly 6 and the feeding assembly 2 are located above the applicating wheel 5 in the height direction.

[0023] In this embodiment, the adhesive applicator has a first working mode and a second working mode. In the first working mode, the cutter assembly 4 can cut the adhesive layer 71 of the tape 7 from the side of the tape 7, and the backing paper 72 of the tape 7 is wound by the take-up assembly 6. In the second working mode, the cutter assembly 4 can cut the tape 7 from the side of the tape 7.

[0024] By providing a detachable cutter 41, the cutting depth of the cutter 41 can be adjusted to achieve the following: in the first working mode, the adhesive layer 71 is cut separately while the backing paper 72 is recycled by the recycling component 6; in the second working mode, the entire tape 7 is cut. This allows for adaptation to both adhesive layer 71 and overall adhesive application without changing equipment, thus reducing costs and improving application efficiency.

[0025] Understandably, the receiving component 6 and the discharging component 2 are arranged opposite each other and are both located above the adhesive roller 5. In the first working mode, the bottom paper 72 can be directly wound and recycled to avoid the bottom paper 72 from scattering and wrapping around the equipment. At the same time, it reduces the tension fluctuation during the transmission of the tape 7 and ensures the continuous stability of the adhesive application operation.

[0026] Furthermore, the cutter assembly 4 includes a first cylinder 42 mounted on the mounting bracket 1, an L-shaped base 43 connected to the first cylinder 42, and a cutter 41 mounted on the L-shaped base 43. The first cylinder 42 can drive the L-shaped base 43 to move the cutter 41 back and forth to cut the adhesive layer 71 of the tape 7 or cut the entire tape 7. By driving the L-shaped base 43 to move the cutter 41 back and forth through the first cylinder 42, the cutting accuracy of the cutter 41 can be precisely controlled. With the depth adjusted by the cutter 41, both shallow cuts that only cut the adhesive layer 71 and deep cuts that cut the entire tape 7 can be achieved. On the other hand, the combination of the cutter assembly 4 with the first cylinder 42 and the L-shaped base 43 makes the overall structure simple and compact. It is installed below the clamping and conveying assembly 3, adapts to the conveying path of the tape 7, and does not occupy additional space.

[0027] More specifically, the mounting frame 1 is also provided with an adjustment plate 8 for the clamping and conveying assembly 3. The adjustment plate 8 is provided with a groove 81, and the cutter 41 is detachably connected to the L-shaped base 43 to adjust the depth within the groove 81.

[0028] In this embodiment, the adhesive applicator includes a connecting plate 9 attached to the mounting frame 1, an adjusting plate 8 mounted on the connecting plate 9, and a guide space 10 between the connecting plate 9 and the adjusting plate 8. The guide space 10 has a guide surface 101 for the adhesive tape 7 to pass through, and the adhesive tape 7 is wound around the underside of the adhesive applicator wheel 5 after passing through the guide surface 101.

[0029] Understandably, the guide space 10 formed by the connecting plate 9 and the adjusting plate 8, along with the internal guide surface 101, provides a stable transmission channel for the tape 7, preventing deviation, wrinkles, or excessive bending during tape 7 transmission, reducing damage to the tape 7, and ensuring the quality of tape application. After being guided by the guide surface 101, the tape 7 is wound around the underside of the tape application wheel 5, ensuring full contact between the tape 7 and the outer circumference of the tape application wheel 5. This ensures uniform force on the tape 7 during application, avoids problems such as air bubbles and deviation during application, and improves the flatness and accuracy of tape application.

[0030] Furthermore, the guide surface 101 includes an upper arc-shaped surface 1011 and a lower straight surface 1012. The arc-shaped surface 1011 can guide the tape 7 to turn smoothly into the vertical direction, reduce the bending angle of the tape 7 at the turning point, and prevent the adhesive layer 71 from falling off, the backing paper 72 from breaking or the tape 7 from deforming due to excessive bending, thus ensuring the integrity of the tape 7 transmission.

[0031] Furthermore, the clamping and conveying assembly 3 also includes a second cylinder 31, a third cylinder 32, and a conveying component 33 mounted on the mounting frame 1. The second cylinder 31 can drive the conveying component 33 to hold the tape 7 against the guide surface 101 or release the tape 7. The third cylinder 32 can drive the second cylinder 31 to move the conveying component 33 downward to convey the tape 7. The second cylinder 31 drives the conveying component 33 to hold the tape 7 against the guide surface 101, achieving precise clamping of the tape 7 and preventing displacement of the tape 7 during conveying or cutting, thus ensuring the positional accuracy of cutting and applying adhesive. The third cylinder 32 drives the second cylinder 31 to move the conveying component 33 downward. The conveying length of the tape 7 can be precisely adjusted by controlling the extension and retraction stroke of the cylinders to meet the adhesive application length requirements of different products and improve the adaptability of the equipment.

[0032] In this embodiment, the mounting frame 1 includes a first bracket 11 and a second bracket 12 rotatably connected to the first bracket 11. The feeding assembly 2 and the receiving assembly 6 are both located on the first bracket 11, and the adhesive applicator 5 is located on the second bracket 12. The first bracket 11 and the second bracket 12 are rotatably connected, and the angle of the second bracket 12 can be adjusted according to the adhesive application position and shape of the target location, thereby adjusting the adhesive application angle of the adhesive applicator 5. This adapts to the adhesive application needs of flat surfaces, curved surfaces, or different tilt angles, improving the versatility of the equipment.

[0033] Furthermore, the adhesive applicator also includes a rotating assembly 13 rotatably connected to the first bracket 11, a pressure sensor 14 connected to the rotating assembly 13, and a fourth cylinder 15 with one end connected to the pressure sensor 14 and the other end rotatably connected to the second bracket 12. The pressure sensor 14 can detect the pressure value during the adhesive application process in real time and feed it back to the control system. In conjunction with the extension and retraction adjustment of the fourth cylinder 15, closed-loop control of the adhesive application pressure is achieved, ensuring uniform adhesive application pressure and avoiding workpiece damage due to excessive pressure or adhesive layer 71 peeling off due to insufficient pressure.

[0034] Furthermore, the adhesive applicator also includes a transition wheel assembly 17 mounted on the mounting frame 1. Specifically, the transition wheel assembly 17 includes at least a first transition wheel 171 located on one side of the feeding assembly 2, a second transition wheel 172 located on one side of the clamping and conveying assembly 3, and a third transition wheel 173 located on one side of the adhesive applicator 5. The third transition wheel 173 is positioned higher than the adhesive applicator 5 in the height direction, and the adhesive tape 7 is sequentially wound around the adhesive applicator 5 from below and above the third transition wheel 173.

[0035] Understandably, the first transition wheel 171 guides the tape 7 out of the feed tray 21, the second transition wheel 172 guides it into the guide surface 101, and the third transition wheel 173 works with the adhesive roller 5 to form a transmission path. The multi-node guidance makes the tape 7 transmission smoother and further reduces tension fluctuations and deviations. The third transition wheel 173 is set higher than the adhesive roller 5 so that the bottom paper 72 forms a smooth upward recycling path after the adhesive layer 71 is peeled off. At the same time, the S-shaped winding method increases the contact area between the bottom paper 72 and the transition wheel, ensuring that the tension of the bottom paper 72 is uniform when it is recycled, avoiding the bottom paper 72 from breaking due to excessive tension or the bottom paper 72 from accumulating and wrapping around the equipment due to insufficient tension.

[0036] The above is only one specific implementation of this application, and any other improvements made based on the concept of this application shall be considered within the scope of protection of this application.
