Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of polarizer manufacturing, and in particular to an automatic sorting and cleaning device for a face-picking machine. Background Technology

[0002] The manufacturing process of polarizer sheets is quite complex, and the collection of sheet polarizer sheets is a crucial step. The product transmission angle during collection directly affects the success rate of subsequent collection. Currently, the transmission angle of sheet polarizer sheets is mainly affected by the feeding action, with mainstream feeding methods including top suction feeding and transfer feeding. Mainstream collection methods include hopper collection and bin collection. Currently, hopper collection is used, but it cannot constrain the product's posture and relies on the product's inertia to slide down. The product hits a baffle in the hopper to stop, then bounces back and slides down due to gravity to complete the collection action. This poses a risk of uneven collection. Therefore, ensuring that the collected polarizer sheets are neatly arranged is a problem that must be solved. In practice, manual collection is generally used, which is slow and prone to damaging the polarizer sheets. Utility Model Content

[0003] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic alignment and cleaning device for a face-picking machine, comprising: a first robotic arm, a second robotic arm, and an alignment camera. The first robotic arm is equipped with an alignment device, which is controlled by the first robotic arm to move as a whole, precisely tapping the side edges of the polarizers to be aligned, thus assisting in their alignment and stability. The second robotic arm is equipped with a dust collector, which is controlled by the second robotic arm to move as a whole, meticulously performing dust removal operations on the side edges of the polarizers to remove surface dust and impurities. The alignment camera is aimed at the side edges of the polarizers to be aligned for high-precision imaging, acquiring clear side image data in real time for subsequent analysis and adjustment.

[0004] Furthermore, an alignment plate is provided on the front end of the alignment device. The alignment plate protrudes from the front end of the alignment device and is L-shaped. Its width is greater than the total thickness of the sides of the polarizers to be aligned.

[0005] Furthermore, the front end of the aligner is provided with a dust suction port and an air inlet. The dust suction port is located on the side of the aligning plate facing the polarizers to be aligned, and the air inlet is located at the top of the dust suction port.

[0006] Furthermore, the dust collector is equipped with a cleaning camera, which takes high-precision pictures of the side edge of the polarizer to be cleaned, and obtains clear side image data to determine whether further dust cleaning is needed.

[0007] Furthermore, the dust collector is equipped with a dust-sticking roller, which has a dust-sticking surface and is sticky.

[0008] Furthermore, a dust-adhesive roller is provided with several layers of dust-adhesive surfaces, which can be peeled off layer by layer in sequence.

[0009] Furthermore, the entire adhesive roller is designed to be replaceable.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This device is extremely easy to install; it can be simply fixed to both sides of the loading / unloading position on the main body without any additional adjustments. The device can automatically perform precise alignment of polarizers, efficient dust removal, and thorough dust extraction, ensuring accuracy and consistency at every step. By using robotic arm technology to replace manual operation, it not only significantly reduces the workload of manual intervention but also greatly improves the product qualification rate, while effectively reducing overall manufacturing costs, thereby optimizing the production process and improving operational efficiency.

[0016] Entire array of cameras 300. Detailed Implementation

[0017] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0018] Reference Figure 1 An automatic alignment and cleaning device for a face-picking machine includes a first robotic arm 100, a second robotic arm 200, and an alignment camera 300. The first robotic arm 100 is responsible for precisely aligning polarizers, the second robotic arm 200 is dedicated to cleaning dust from the surface and edges of the polarizers, and the alignment camera 300 acquires image data of the polarizers through high-precision shooting and analyzes their position status to determine whether the first robotic arm 100 needs to initiate the alignment operation, thereby ensuring the efficient operation of the entire device.

[0019] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The first robotic arm 100 is equipped with an alignment device 110, which includes an alignment plate 111, a dust extraction port 112, and an air inlet 113. The first robotic arm 100 precisely controls the overall displacement and positioning of the alignment device 110. During use, the alignment camera 300 continuously monitors the arrangement of the polarizers. If a positional deviation exceeds a preset threshold, an alignment command is generated. The first robotic arm 100 responds immediately, performing an alignment operation on the polarizers. It controls the alignment device 110 to move to the target position, causing the alignment plate 111 to gently tap the edges of the polarizers with a specific frequency and force to adjust their alignment. Simultaneously, the air inlet 113 opens to release airflow, loosening the dust, and the dust extraction port 112 activates the negative pressure dust extraction system to promptly suck in the dust that has fallen off during the tapping, preventing secondary pollution and ensuring that the sides of the polarizers are clean and dust-free. The entire process is completed automatically.

[0020] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The second robotic arm 200 is equipped with a dust collector 210, which features a dust-adhesive roller 211 and a cleaning camera 212. The dust collector 210 has a replaceable design, allowing for independent replacement of the dust-adhesive roller 211. When the adsorption force of the dust-adhesive surface weakens or becomes saturated after multiple uses, the operator can quickly replace the roller to maintain optimal dust-adhesive performance. The cleaning camera 212 is responsible for taking multi-angle shots of the polarizer's side, using image recognition technology to analyze dust residue. If cleaning is deemed necessary, the second robotic arm 200 automatically moves the dust collector 210, precisely positioning the dust-adhesive roller 211 at the edge of the polarizer and driving it to reciprocate and adsorb dust. The cleaning camera 212 verifies the cleanliness of this side in real time. Once dust-free, it automatically rotates to photograph the remaining sides, repeating the movement, rolling, and verification steps until all sides are clean enough to ensure overall cleaning quality.

[0021] Example: First, several polarizer sheets to be aligned and cleaned are precisely placed in the designated alignment position, ensuring a flat and stable position. Then, the device is powered on, and the alignment camera 300 immediately starts working, capturing multi-angle images of one side of the polarizer sheets through a high-resolution lens to obtain side image data. The system uses image analysis algorithms to evaluate the alignment status between the polarizer sheets in real time. If unevenness or irregular edges are detected, failing to meet the preset alignment requirements, the first robotic arm 100 automatically controls the alignment device 110, where the alignment plate 111 taps the sides of the polarizer sheets with constant force and frequency to help adjust the sheet positions to a uniform reference. Simultaneously, the air inlet 113 opens to release a stable airflow, effectively loosening dust particles adhering to the sheet surface; the suction port 112 immediately activates the negative pressure suction system, using efficient suction to promptly draw the dust dislodged by the tapping into the dust collection device, keeping the working area clean and dust-free. After this step, the entire row of cameras 300 takes another picture of the same side to determine whether the edge meets the smooth and flat standard of the finished product. If it still does not meet the requirements, the system automatically repeats the above-mentioned tapping, airflow loosening, and vacuuming actions; once it is confirmed that it meets the finished product requirements, the entire row of cameras 300 turns to take a picture of the adjacent side of the polarizer and cycles through the entire row process, including taking pictures, tapping, airflow, and vacuuming operations, until all four sides pass the row acceptance and are completely aligned.

[0022] After the entire row of polarizers is completed, the second robotic arm 200 seamlessly takes over the task, controlling the cleaning camera 212 to perform high-precision scanning and imaging of the sides of the completed row. If the cleaning camera 212 determines through image recognition that there is residual dust on the side and additional dust removal is required, the second robotic arm 200 precisely operates the dust collector 210, using its dust-removing rollers 211 to gently press and remove dust from the sides of the polarizers, effectively adsorbing surface dust particles. After dust removal, the cleaning camera 212 takes another picture to evaluate the cleaning effect; if the dust-free standard for the finished product is not met, the system repeats the dust removal action; if the finished product requirements are met, the cleaning camera 212 turns to photograph the other side of the polarizer and cycles through the dust removal and inspection process, including shooting, judgment, dust removal, and verification, until all four sides meet the clean finished product standard. At this point, the system automatically outputs several polarizers that have been cleaned as qualified products to the next process.

[0023] Furthermore, after multiple use cycles, the adhesive rollers 211 on the adhesive roller 210 may experience weakened or saturated adhesion due to dust accumulation. To ensure continued high-efficiency cleaning performance, operators can quickly remove the old rollers and replace them with brand new ones to restore optimal adhesion and ensure long-term stable operation of the equipment.
