Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of smart card processing technology. More specifically, this utility model relates to a smart card binding device. Background Technology

[0002] Smart card binding generally refers to the heat-pressing and bonding of materials such as adhesive film, printed layer, intermediate layer, and compensating layer in a specific order to ensure precise alignment and prevent separation, without adding any other materials during the process. Smart card binding differs significantly from ordinary binding. Ordinary binding processes, including saddle stitching, adhesive binding, and thread sewing, require auxiliary materials such as wire, glue, and thread. Smart card binding requires no additional materials and uses an edge-heat welding process to secure multiple layers of material.

[0003] With numerous card issuers, diverse and personalized card designs, and varied and specialized smart card manufacturing processes, coupled with small order volumes and frequent batches, large-scale mass production using fully automated equipment is not suitable, nor is traditional binding appropriate.

[0004] However, several domestic manufacturers currently produce fully automated smart card binding equipment. For example, a Guangzhou-based company offers an Inlay wire-wrapping and spot-welding binding machine. Its advantages include modular design and customization support, but disadvantages include: 1) bulky size (4700×1600×2000mm), requiring a dedicated workshop layout; 2) high price, positioned as a high-end industrial-grade machine, with total costs typically exceeding 200,000 RMB; and 3) limited applicability, designed specifically for 5-6 layer structures, sensitive to material color and batch size, and low efficiency in small-batch changeovers. A Zhuhai-based company offers an automatic SMART card placement mechanism. Its advantages include high-precision placement and support for vacuum-based damage-free adsorption, but disadvantages include: 1) reliance on production line integration, requiring a supporting automated assembly line and a large floor space; and 2) high cost, suitable for large batches, as cost amortization is uneconomical for small batches.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a smart card binding device that is compact and suitable for small batches. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0047] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can implement it based on the description.

[0048] It should be noted that in the description of this utility model, the terms "horizontal", "longitudinal", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", and "outer" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0049] like Figures 1-2 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a smart card binding device, comprising:

[0050] Main panel 1, which is tilted;

[0051] A hot welding mechanism is mounted on the main body panel 1;

[0052] A drive mechanism is connected to the hot welding head 21 of the hot welding mechanism to drive the hot welding head 21 closer to or away from the main body panel 1;

[0053] A positioning component is disposed on the main panel 1 to locate the smart card;

[0054] The power distribution box 5 is electrically connected to the hot welding mechanism and the drive mechanism respectively, so as to control the temperature of the hot welding head 21 and the spot welding time of the hot welding mechanism.

[0055] In this embodiment, the temperature and spot welding time of the hot welding heads 21 are adjusted by the power distribution box 5 to precisely control the temperature and spot welding time of multiple hot welding heads 21. The drive mechanism drives the telescopic cylinder 22 to brake the hot welding heads 21 for welding, ensuring the hot-pressing and bonding of the materials. The materials to be bound are placed on a 45° inclined steel plate. The positioning component works with the inclined steel plate to ensure that the materials do not slip and are precisely aligned with the binding angle, ensuring that all stacked materials are bound and aligned without deviation.

[0056] like Figure 1 As shown, the main panel 1 is tilted, preferably at 45° relative to the horizontal plane, which is more ergonomic and allows employees to work at the most comfortable angle when operating the smart card binding device. The temperature of the welding head 21 and the time for each spot weld are pre-set on the power distribution box 5. The standard smart card binding welding temperature is 170~210℃, and the spot weld time is about 1 second. Specific parameters need to be adjusted according to the material characteristics and thickness of the order materials. The binding material is placed on the upper part of the main panel 1, and the positioning component positions the binding material. Before welding, ensure the welding head is free of foreign objects to prevent abnormal spot welds. The drive mechanism moves the welding head 21 close to the binding material, and then the power is turned on through the power distribution box 5, and the welding mechanism begins welding. A trial weld is performed before binding to ensure that the material is thermally bonded and does not separate, and that the weld joint is flat and free of excess welding material.

[0057] When placing the binding material on the upper part of the main panel 1, press Figure 3 The card body structure requires the placement of materials, following the corresponding relationship of front film 71, front substrate 72, intermediate layer 73, reverse substrate 74, and reverse film 75. Materials must be placed neatly without any misalignment. During batch binding, the materials to be bound, neatly placed on the main panel 1 in the binding sequence, are aligned using the positioning components and then heat-pressed to ensure precise alignment and prevent separation of the stacked materials.

[0058] Before bulk binding, the following checks are required: the weld points should be flat and without any obvious protrusions; the weld points should not appear in the punching lines or patterns; the weld points should be close to the inside of the substrate, preferably within 4mm of the edge, so as not to damage the graphics and text, in order to avoid lamination deformation; check whether the materials are firmly adhered after spot welding and there should be no detachment.

[0059] Furthermore, in the aforementioned smart card binding device, the hot welding mechanism includes:

[0060] Multiple sets of hot welding components 2 are spaced apart on the outside of the main body panel 1, with their hot welding heads 21 facing the main body panel 1. Figure 4 As shown, the hot-welding assembly 2 includes:

[0061] The mounting bracket is connected to the main body panel 1;

[0062] Telescopic cylinder 22, which is mounted on the mounting bracket;

[0063] An electric heating element 23 is installed on the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 22 and is electrically connected to the power distribution box 5. The hot welding head 21 is connected to the electric heating element 23 and is positioned facing the body panel.

[0064] A protective cover 24 is connected to the mounting bracket shown and is located above the hot welding head 21.

[0065] In this embodiment, the hot welding mechanism uses multiple sets of hot welding components 2, preferably three sets. Two sets of hot welding components 2 are located on the lower side of the main panel 1, and one set is located on both sides of the main panel 1. The positioning components are three substrate blocks 4, with two located on the lower side of the main panel 1 and one on both sides of the main panel 1.

[0066] The drive mechanism controls the telescopic cylinder 22 to operate, which in turn moves the electric heating element 23 and the welding head 21, adjusting the position of the welding head 21. Specifically, the drive mechanism includes:

[0067] A gas pipeline connects a gas source to the telescopic cylinder 22. The gas pipeline is equipped with a solenoid valve 31, an air filter 32, and a pressure gauge. The solenoid valve 31 is connected to a power distribution box 5, which controls the opening and closing of the solenoid valve 31. The solenoid valve 31 controls the flow and closure of the gas pipeline. The air filter 32 filters impurities from the air in the gas pipeline, and the pressure gauge monitors the gas pressure in the gas pipeline in real time.

[0068] Furthermore, in the aforementioned smart card binding device, a support structure is provided at the lower end of the main panel 1, and both the power distribution box 5 and the drive mechanism are mounted on the support structure. The support structure includes:

[0069] Support frame 11;

[0070] Multiple foot cups 12 are spaced apart at the lower end of the support frame 11.

[0071] In this embodiment, multiple sliding cups 12 are provided at the lower end of the support frame 11, which can play a role in shock absorption and anti-slip.

[0072] Furthermore, in the aforementioned smart card binding device, Figures 5-6 As shown, the power distribution box 5 includes:

[0073] Box 51;

[0074] The control panel includes a main power switch 521, a temperature adjustment button 522, a time adjustment knob 523, a temperature display 524, and a time display 525, all electrically connected to the circuit control board 53. One end of the housing 51 has multiple mounting ports corresponding to the main power switch 521, temperature adjustment button 522, and time adjustment knob 523 electrically connected to the circuit control board 53. The main power switch 521, temperature adjustment button 522, and time adjustment knob 523 electrically connected to the circuit control board 53 are mounted on their respective mounting ports.

[0075] The circuit control board 53 is disposed inside the housing 51 and is electrically connected to the control panel and the hot welding mechanism via terminal blocks 54.

[0076] In this embodiment, the control panel is equipped with a main power switch 521, a temperature adjustment button 522, a time adjustment knob 523, a temperature display 524, and a time display 525. The number of temperature adjustment buttons 522 and temperature displays 524 is equal to the number of hot welding components 2, and is set to three in each case. The temperature of the three hot welding heads 21 is adjusted by the three temperature adjustment buttons 522, and the spot welding time is adjusted by the three time adjustment knobs, so as to precisely control the welding temperature and welding time of the three hot welding heads 21.

[0077] Furthermore, the smart card binding device further includes:

[0078] The foot switch 6 is electrically connected to the circuit control board 53.

[0079] In this embodiment, the foot switch 6 is electrically connected to the circuit control board 53. Before each welding, the foot switch 6 is stepped on, and the circuit control board 53 controls the solenoid valve 31 to open. The solenoid valve 31 controls the conduction of the gas pipeline, thereby causing the three telescopic cylinders 22 to start working, driving the three hot welding heads 21 to approach the binding material. Then, the main power switch 521 on the control panel is turned on, and the three hot welding heads 21 start electric welding. After the electric welding is completed, the foot switch 6 is released.
