Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic detonator electronic ignition module manufacturing technology, specifically to an electronic detonator ignition element dipping device. Background Technology
[0002] In the industrial detonator manufacturing sector, electronic detonators are increasingly widely used due to their high safety and precision. The dipping process for the electronic ignition module of an electronic detonator is a crucial step in the production process, and its quality directly affects the reliability of the detonator's ignition. Currently, this process largely relies on manual labor, with operators using small wooden sticks or other tools to dip the chemical agent from a container and apply it to the electronic ignition module. This manual method has many drawbacks: firstly, it is inefficient and cannot meet the demands of large-scale production; secondly, product quality consistency is poor, greatly affected by the operator's skill level and fatigue; and most importantly, operators are exposed to flammable and explosive hazardous chemicals for extended periods, posing extremely high personal safety risks. Although some enterprises have begun to implement production line automation upgrades, as shown in patents CN222205096U (an automatic rotating dipping structure for electronic detonator ignition elements) and CN222728955U (a material transfer mechanism for electronic detonator ignition elements), dedicated automated equipment for the specific high-risk dipping process is still lacking or incomplete. This results in low automation levels, low production capacity, and low production safety. Furthermore, none of these systems provide specific treatment of the chemical solution to ensure it is at the appropriate humidity and temperature for easy dipping. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a dedicated device that can automate the entire process of feeding, pouring, and dipping, while effectively ensuring operational safety and chemical stability.
[0003] Therefore, this utility model provides a highly automated and safe medicine-dipping device that avoids direct contact between people and the medicine liquid, greatly reducing the work risks for workers. The automated production method greatly improves production efficiency, enabling automatic medicine feeding, pouring, and dipping. It solves the problem of medicine liquid separation during the dipping process, improves product quality and consistency, and also adopts a temperature control and humidification device to ensure that the medicine liquid in the dipping box remains in a normal state, preventing the medicine liquid from drying out or deteriorating, reducing the waste of medicine liquid, and ensuring smooth operation of the medicine dipping production process. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a device for dipping the ignition element of an electronic detonator in liquid. This device can achieve fully automated operation, greatly reduce the safety risks of manual labor, improve production efficiency and product consistency, and ensure the stability of the liquid.
[0005] To solve the above problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: an electronic detonator ignition element dipping device, comprising a main body, a dipping mechanism, a delivery device, and a medicine barrel. The main body is disposed inside an explosion-proof window and includes a dipping box, a pouring device for pouring the medicine liquid from the medicine barrel into the dipping box, a scraping device for leveling and stirring the medicine liquid in the dipping box, a temperature control device for controlling the temperature of the medicine liquid in the dipping box, and a humidifying device for humidifying the medicine liquid in the dipping box. The dipping mechanism is disposed inside the explosion-proof window and is used to grasp the mold and move it within the dipping box to complete the dipping operation. The delivery device is disposed outside the explosion-proof window and is used to grasp and transport the medicine barrel. The delivery device can grasp the medicine barrel and move it between an initial position and a placement position, and the pouring device can move between the placement position and above the dipping box. The initial position is located outside the explosion-proof window, and the placement position is located inside the explosion-proof window and above the main body.
[0006] Furthermore, the medicine pouring device includes a flipping mechanism and a switching mechanism. The flipping mechanism is installed above the switching mechanism. The flipping mechanism is used to drive the medicine barrel to rotate to realize medicine pouring. The switching mechanism is used to drive the flipping mechanism to move between the medicine taking position and the medicine pouring position. The medicine taking position is close to the explosion-proof window and coincides with the placement position. The medicine pouring position is away from the explosion-proof window and is located above the medicine dipping box.
[0007] Furthermore, the flipping mechanism includes a medicine barrel base and a fixed gripper. The medicine barrel base is located below the fixed gripper. The medicine barrel base is used to support the medicine barrel, and the fixed gripper is used to clamp or release the medicine barrel.
[0008] Furthermore, the flipping mechanism also includes a limiting block installed on the upper surface of the medicine barrel base, the limiting block being used to abut against the outer wall of the medicine barrel to restrict its position.
[0009] Furthermore, the scraping device includes a scraping plate, a controllable lifting mechanism, and a controllable translation mechanism. The controllable lifting mechanism and the controllable translation mechanism drive the scraping plate to translate along the height and length directions of the medicine-dipping box.
[0010] Furthermore, the humidification device includes a steam outlet located above the medicine-dipping box.
[0011] Furthermore, the temperature control device includes a temperature-conducting plate, and the medicine-dipping box is placed on the upper surface of the temperature-conducting plate.
[0012] Furthermore, the temperature control device also includes a medicine box baffle strip detachably fixed to the temperature-conducting plate. The strips are distributed around the perimeter of the medicine-dipping box and abut against the medicine-dipping box.
[0013] Furthermore, the dipping mechanism includes a six-axis robot and a mold gripper located at the end of the six-axis robot, the mold gripper being used to grip the mold.
[0014] Furthermore, the medicine delivery device includes a medicine barrel gripper, a lifting mechanism for driving the medicine barrel gripper to rise and fall, and a pushing mechanism for driving the medicine barrel gripper to move horizontally.
[0015] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this solution are: 1. High safety: Through explosion-proof window isolation and fully automated operation, the separation of people and drugs is achieved, fundamentally eliminating the risk of operators coming into contact with dangerous drugs.
[0016] 2. Stable liquid state: The unique integrated functions of scraping (stirring and leveling), temperature control and humidification effectively solve the process problems of liquid separation, drying, deterioration and uneven liquid level, reduce liquid waste and ensure the stability and repeatability of the production process.
[0017] 3. Layout optimization and space saving: The medicine pouring device moves the flipping mechanism used for pouring medicine through a switching mechanism, so that it can perform different tasks in different positions. This allows the dipping mechanism and the scraping mechanism to work in turn and in an orderly manner above the dipping box without interfering with each other. The switching design of the medicine pouring device avoids mechanism interference, allowing the dipping box to be designed more compactly, concentrating the medicine liquid and further reducing waste.
[0018] 4. High reliability: The simplified and reliable design of the medicine barrel handover and fixing mechanisms reduces equipment complexity and failure rate.
[0019] 5. Improved efficiency and quality: This utility model can realize automatic drug delivery, pouring and dipping, and the fully automated continuous production method significantly improves efficiency; the robot's precise drug dipping and scraping device, humidification device and temperature control device maintain and preserve the shape of the drug solution, which greatly ensures the consistency and quality of the product.

Detailed Implementation
[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] This utility model discloses a device for dipping the ignition element of an electronic detonator in powder, such as... Figure 1-2 As shown, the device includes a main body 1, a dipping mechanism 2, a delivery device 4, and a medicine barrel 5. The main body 1 is located inside the explosion-proof window 3. The main body 1 includes a dipping box 11, a pouring device 12 for pouring the medicine liquid from the medicine barrel 5 into the dipping box 11, a scraping device 13 for leveling and stirring the medicine liquid in the dipping box 11, a temperature control device 14 for controlling the temperature of the medicine liquid in the dipping box 11, and a humidifying device 15 for humidifying the medicine liquid in the dipping box 11. The dipping mechanism 2 is located inside the explosion-proof window 3 and is used to grasp the mold and move it within the dipping box 11 to complete the dipping operation. The delivery device 4 is located outside the explosion-proof window 3 and is used to grasp and transport the medicine barrel 5. The delivery device 4 can grasp the medicine barrel 5 and move it between an initial position and a placement position. The pouring device 12 can move between the placement position and above the dipping box 11. The initial position is located outside the explosion-proof window 3, and the placement position is located inside the explosion-proof window 3 and above the main body 1. The medicine-dipping box 11 has an upward-facing cavity.
[0024] like Figure 3As shown, the flipping mechanism 121 is installed above the switching mechanism 122. Driven by a motor, the flipping mechanism 121 rotates the medicine barrel 5 to dispensing the medicine. The switching mechanism 122 drives the flipping mechanism 121 to move between the medicine-taking position and the medicine-dispensing position, allowing it to perform different operations at different positions. This prevents the area above the medicine-dipping box 11 from being constantly obstructed, thus enabling the medicine-dipping mechanism 2 and the medicine-scraping device 13 to work alternately and orderly above the medicine-dipping box 11 without interfering with each other. This reduces the area requirement of the medicine-dipping box 11, making the medicine more concentrated, reducing medicine waste, and saving production costs. The medicine-taking position is close to the explosion-proof window 3 and coincides with the placement position, while the medicine-dispensing position is away from the explosion-proof window 3 and located above the medicine-dipping box 11. The flipping mechanism 121 includes a medicine barrel base 1212 and a fixing claw 1211. The medicine barrel base 1212 is located below the fixing claw 1211, supporting the medicine barrel 5. The fixing claw 1211 clamps or releases the medicine barrel 5. The flipping mechanism 121 also includes a limiting block 1213 installed on the upper surface of the medicine barrel base 1212. The limiting block 1213 restricts the position of the medicine barrel 5 when it is placed, preventing the medicine barrel 5 from shifting position when the fixing claw 1211 is tightened or loosened, further reducing the difficulty of picking up and delivering the medicine barrel 5, and improving stability.
[0025] like Figure 4 As shown, the controllable lifting mechanism 132 enables the scraper 131 to scrape and stir the liquid at different liquid levels, further ensuring the flatness of the liquid surface. The controllable translation mechanism 133 enables the scraper 131 to stir and scrape the liquid at different positions, providing greater freedom and precision in operation.
[0026] like Figure 5 As shown, the humidification device 15 includes several steam outlets 151, which are located above the medicine dipping box 11 and have tubular openings. The steam outlet direction is parallel to the bottom surface of the medicine dipping box 11. Water vapor is sprayed out through the steam outlets 151 and falls into the medicine liquid under the action of gravity. During the falling process, the water vapor is evenly dispersed by the air and quickly covers the entire medicine dipping box 11, so that the medicine liquid in the medicine dipping box 11 is evenly humidified.
[0027] The temperature control device 14 includes a temperature-conducting plate 141, on which the medicine-dipping box 11 is placed. The temperature-conducting plate 141 maintains a constant temperature inside the medicine-dipping box 11. The contact area between the medicine-dipping box 11 and the temperature-conducting plate 141 is large, resulting in high and uniform heat absorption and release efficiency. The temperature control device 14 also includes medicine box baffles 142 detachably fixed to the temperature-conducting plate 141. The medicine box baffles 142 are distributed around the medicine-dipping box 11 and abut against it to prevent displacement of the medicine-dipping box 11 due to external forces during processes such as pouring, scraping, and dipping. The medicine box baffles 142 are detachable, allowing the medicine-dipping box 11 to be fixed stably for operation while also facilitating disassembly for medicine recovery or cleaning.
[0028] like Figure 6 As shown, the medicine-dipping mechanism 2 includes a six-axis robot 21 and a mold gripper 22 located at the end of the six-axis robot 21. The mold gripper 22 is used to grip the mold. The six-axis robot 21 has extremely high degrees of freedom and precision, and can work with the mold gripper 22 to grasp the mold and perform precise medicine-dipping in the medicine-dipping box 11.
[0029] like Figure 7 As shown, the medicine delivery device 4 includes a medicine barrel gripper 41, a lifting mechanism 42 for driving the medicine barrel gripper 41 to rise and fall, and a pushing mechanism 43 for driving the medicine barrel gripper 41 to move horizontally. The lifting mechanism 42 and the pushing mechanism 43 cooperate to enable the medicine barrel gripper 41 to move horizontally in the vertical and forward and backward directions, so as to deliver the medicine barrel 5 into the placement position or remove the medicine barrel 5 from the placement position, thereby realizing automatic medicine delivery and automatic recovery of empty medicine barrels 5.
[0030] Working principle: 1. Feeding: Manually or via upstream equipment, the full medicine barrel 5 is placed at the initial position of the medicine feeding device 4; 2. Medicine delivery: The medicine barrel gripper 41 of the medicine delivery device 4 clamps the medicine barrel 5, and through the cooperation of the lifting mechanism 42 and the pushing mechanism 43, it passes through the open explosion-proof window 3 and is transported to the placement position inside the window. At this time, the flipping mechanism 121 of the medicine pouring device 12 has been moved to the medicine retrieval position (placement position) by the switching mechanism 122 and is waiting.
[0031] 3. Handover and Fixing: The delivery device 4 places the medicine barrel 5 on the medicine barrel base 1212 of the flipping mechanism 121. The outer wall of the medicine barrel 5 is fixed against the limiting block 1213, and then the fixing claw 1211 clamps the medicine barrel 5. The delivery device 4 releases and returns to the initial position outside the explosion-proof window 3, and the explosion-proof window 3 is closed.
[0032] 4. Pouring medicine: The switching mechanism 122 moves the flipping mechanism 121 holding the medicine barrel 5 to the pouring position above the dipping box 11. The flipping mechanism 121 drives the medicine barrel 5 to flip, pouring the medicine into the dipping box 11. It can be flipped multiple times to ensure that all residual medicine is poured out.
[0033] 5. Return to position and empty barrel recycling: After the medicine is poured, the switching mechanism 122 brings the flipping mechanism 121 back to the medicine picking position, the fixed gripper 1211 releases the empty medicine barrel 5, the explosion-proof window 3 opens again, the medicine delivery device 4 enters, grips the empty medicine barrel 5 and sends it back to the initial position, and the explosion-proof window 3 closes.
[0034] 6. Chemical Processing: The scraping device 13 is activated, and the controllable lifting mechanism 132 drives the scraper 131 to descend below the liquid surface. The controllable translation mechanism 133 then drives it to move along the length of the dipping box 11, thoroughly stirring the liquid to prevent sedimentation and stratification. After stirring, the scraper 131 rises back to the liquid surface and is then scraped to level the surface, eliminating any pits that may have been left from the previous dipping and creating a smooth liquid surface.
[0035] 7. Dipping in medicine: The six-axis robot 21 uses the mold gripper 22 to grab the mold with the ignition element installed, moves it above the medicine dipping box 11, and immerses the ignition element in the medicine solution to a certain depth and holds it for a period of time according to the process requirements. After dipping in medicine, it is lifted and removed.
[0036] 8. Shape Preservation and Maintenance: After each dipping operation, the scraping device 131 can perform another scraping operation to prepare for the next dipping. Throughout the production process, the temperature control device 14 heats or cools the dipping box 11 via the temperature guide plate 141 to maintain a constant temperature of the medicinal liquid. The humidification device 15 sprays fine water vapor from the steam outlet 151 as needed to prevent the surface of the medicinal liquid from drying out. The box baffle 142 ensures that the position of the dipping box 11 remains fixed throughout all operations.
[0037] 9. Cycle: Repeat steps 2-8 to achieve continuous automated production.
[0038] This invention solves a series of technical problems in the process of dipping the electronic detonator's electronic ignition module in the chemical coating process through the coordinated work of the above modules, including safety, quality, efficiency, and chemical maintenance.
[0039] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of this utility model, and common knowledge regarding specific structures and characteristics is not elaborated upon here. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the structure of this utility model, and these should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. These modifications will not affect the effectiveness of the implementation of this utility model or the practicality of the patent.
