Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of curved surface adhesive application devices, specifically, to a spherical curved surface intelligent adhesive application device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the application of adhesives to ball surfaces is largely done manually, resulting in high labor intensity due to dense populations, and no good alternative method has been found. Existing adhesive application and touch-up processes rely entirely on manual labor, and the adhesives used often contain small amounts of toxic benzene compounds, such as benzene, toluene, and xylene, which may exceed safe levels. Long-term exposure to these substances may cause damage to the nervous system, liver and kidney function, or allergic reactions. Some products also contain excessive levels of free formaldehyde, which can irritate the respiratory mucosa and cause skin allergies, headaches, and other symptoms. Solvents such as halogenated hydrocarbons, like tetrachloroethane, may also exceed safe levels; acute poisoning can cause multi-organ damage, and long-term exposure may increase the risk of chronic poisoning. Other substances include volatile organic compounds (VOCs), vinyl acetate, and acrylates, which may irritate the skin and respiratory tract. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the process to reduce direct contact with adhesives and minimize the impact on worker health. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a spherical curved surface intelligent adhesive application device.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A spherical surface intelligent adhesive application device is used to apply adhesive to grooves on a spherical surface. It includes a control device and an adhesive application device. The control device scans the sphere and drives the adhesive application device to apply adhesive. The adhesive application device includes a clamping mechanism and a moving adhesive application mechanism. The control device is connected to the clamping mechanism to hold the sphere and realize the multidimensional rotation of the sphere. The control device is connected to the moving adhesive application mechanism to apply adhesive to the grooves on the surface of the sphere that rotates freely in multiple dimensions on the clamping mechanism.

[0005] As a preferred embodiment, a worktable is also provided, which includes a scanning station and an adhesive application station. A rotary switching mechanism is provided on the scanning station and the adhesive application station. A clamping mechanism is movably connected to the scanning station and the adhesive application station through the rotary switching mechanism. The control device includes a scanning mechanism installed above the scanning station.

[0006] In this invention, the workbench is divided into a scanning station and a gluing station. A rotating switching mechanism allows the clamping mechanism to automatically switch between the two stations, eliminating the need for manual handling of the spheres to be scanned or coated. Simultaneously, the scanning mechanism included in the control device is installed above the scanning station, automatically scanning the sphere to obtain surface groove information after the clamping mechanism delivers it to the scanning station. This eliminates the need for manual positioning of the sphere or operation of the scanning components, further replacing manual steps. Furthermore, the scanning mechanism, fixed above the scanning station and working in conjunction with the control device, improves the accuracy of collecting surface groove information. The orderly switching of stations achieved by the rotating switching mechanism also improves overall work efficiency. The automated gluing operation ensures consistency and stability in gluing different sphere grooves, thereby improving product quality and standardized design.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment, the two clamping mechanisms are arranged opposite each other and collinearly, with a rotary switching mechanism positioned on the worktable between the two clamping mechanisms. In this invention, the back-to-back, collinear layout of the two clamping mechanisms, combined with the rotary switching mechanism on the intermediate worktable, allows the two clamping mechanisms to correspond to the scanning station and the gluing station respectively. The rotary switching mechanism can drive the two clamping mechanisms to accurately and automatically switch between the two stations, eliminating the need for manual handling of the spheres to achieve station transfer.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the clamping mechanism includes two clamping ends, a slide table and a rotating plate fixedly connected to the clamping ends. The slide table is movably connected to the rotating plate for adjusting the distance between the clamping ends. In this invention, the slide table fixedly connected to the clamping ends can move on the rotating plate, automatically adjusting the distance between the two clamping ends. This eliminates the need for manual adjustment of the clamping component spacing to fit the size of the sphere. Combined with a control device, the clamping mechanism achieves automatic clamping and multi-dimensional rotation of the sphere, completely replacing the manual fixing of the sphere and manual adjustment of the clamping position in existing technologies.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the slide table is provided with a drive screw hole, and the bottom of the two slide tables are respectively provided with a first lead screw that matches the drive screw hole. The middle of the first lead screw is provided with a first motor that is driven and connected to the first lead screw, and the control device is connected to the first motor. In this invention, the control device can be directly connected to the first motor, which drives the first lead screw connected in the middle to rotate. The first lead screw can precisely match the drive screw hole at the bottom of the slide table, thereby driving the two slide tables to move automatically to adjust the spacing. The entire slide table movement and adjustment process does not require manual rotation of the adjustment parts or intervention in the spacing adjustment, completely replacing the possible manual adjustment of the slide table position and significantly reducing the frequency of personnel operation near the clamping mechanism. At the same time, since no personnel need to approach the clamping area for manual adjustment, the possibility of personnel coming into contact with harmful substances such as benzene compounds and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the adhesive is further reduced, providing more comprehensive protection for personnel health. Moreover, the transmission method of the first motor driving the first lead screw and the slide table screw hole can achieve precise control of the slide table movement distance under the precise control of the control device, ensuring the accuracy and stability when the two slide tables drive the clamping end to adjust the spacing, avoiding the spacing deviation problem that is easy to occur in manual adjustment, providing a reliable guarantee for the stable clamping of spheres of different specifications, and thus improving the standardization and stability of the clamping link in the entire adhesive application operation.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, one clamping end is rotatably connected to the corresponding slide, and the other clamping end is drivenly connected to a second motor. The control device is connected to the second motor to realize the first rotational motion based on the two clamping ends.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, a third motor is connected to the other side of the turntable, and a control device is connected to the third motor to drive the rotation and clamping mechanism to perform a second rotational motion.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment, the rotary switching mechanism includes a fourth motor, a first rotating seat, and a rotating cavity. The fourth motor is installed under the worktable and is connected upward through the first rotating seat. The rotating cavity is provided on the top of the first rotating seat. The third motor is installed in the rotating cavity. The rotating cavity has a rotating through hole and a second rotating seat. The rotating plate passes through the second rotating seat and is connected to the third motor for transmission.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, the movable gluing mechanism includes a fifth motor, a second lead screw, a transmission cavity, a transmission table, and a glue head. The fifth motor drives the second lead screw downwards, and the second lead screw and the transmission table are movably connected. One side of the transmission table is slidably installed in the transmission cavity, and the other side of the transmission table is fixedly connected to the glue head.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment, a cleaning mechanism matching the adhesive head is provided on the clamping mechanism side near the scanning mechanism. The cleaning mechanism includes a cleaning execution component, a drive component, and a mounting base. The mounting base is installed on top of the clamping mechanism. The cleaning execution component includes a flexible cleaning brush and a cleaning fluid outlet. The cleaning brush is made of wear-resistant nylon material that does not easily shed fibers, and is arranged in a ring or semi-ring structure surrounding the cleaning fluid outlet. Its bristles face the center of the cleaning area, i.e., the adhesive head to be cleaned, allowing it to conform to the outer surface of the adhesive head, especially around the outlet, for physical cleaning. A cleaning water pump outlet is embedded in the inner gap of the cleaning brush and connected to an external cleaning fluid storage tank via a pipeline. This pipeline is equipped with a solenoid valve to control its on / off state, allowing cleaning fluid to be output to the adhesive head outlet and outer surface. For example, a low-volatility cleaning fluid adapted to the adhesive properties can be used to avoid damaging the adhesive head material, achieving a combined physical cleaning and liquid rinsing enhanced cleaning effect.

[0015] Furthermore, the mounting base is fixed to the bracket extending from the top of the clamping mechanism by bolts, and the installation position corresponds to the movement trajectory of the glue head to ensure that the cleaning mechanism can accurately align with the glue head; the height and horizontal position of the mounting base can be finely adjusted by the bracket to adapt to the cleaning needs of glue heads of different specifications.

[0016] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes a miniature linear motor and an angle adjustment cylinder. The miniature linear motor is fixed on the mounting base and has a slider connected to the bracket of the cleaning execution assembly, which can drive the cleaning execution assembly to move in the direction of approaching / moving away from the glue head. The angle adjustment cylinder is mounted on the bracket of the cleaning execution assembly, and the end of the piston rod is connected to the fixing bracket of the cleaning brush, which is used to fine adjust the tilt angle of the cleaning brush to ensure that the bristles can closely fit the different curved surfaces of the glue head. The control device is electrically connected to the solenoid valves of the miniature linear motor, the angle adjustment cylinder, and the cleaning water pump, respectively, and can control the movement, angle adjustment, and cleaning fluid output of the cleaning execution assembly.

[0017] The advantages of this utility model based on the above solution are as follows: In this invention, there is no need for manual positioning, manual fixing of the sphere, repeated adjustment of the sphere's posture, or manual application of glue. The control device can automatically scan the sphere to obtain information about the sphere and its surface grooves. Simultaneously, it connects to a drive clamping mechanism to automatically clamp the sphere and achieve multi-dimensional rotation of the sphere. It can also drive a moving glue-applying mechanism to automatically apply glue to the multi-dimensionally rotating grooves on the sphere's surface, completely replacing a large amount of manual work in existing technologies and significantly reducing labor intensity. Moreover, throughout the entire process, personnel do not need to touch the glue; they only need to perform non-contact auxiliary operations at the beginning and end of the process, such as placing the sphere to be glued and removing the glued sphere, significantly reducing direct contact between personnel and glue. At the same time, the precise scanning and drive of the control device, combined with the multi-dimensional rotation of the clamping mechanism, ensures that the moving glue-applying mechanism is always accurately aligned with the grooves on the sphere's surface, avoiding problems such as glue application deviation, missed application, and uneven glue layer that are prone to occur with manual glue application. The automated operation also standardizes the glue application process, ensuring the consistency and stability of glue application to different sphere grooves, thereby improving product quality.

Example 1

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, a spherical curved surface intelligent adhesive application device includes a control device 100, an adhesive application device 200, and a worktable 300. The worktable 300 is divided into a scanning station 310 and an adhesive application station 320, which are spaced apart along the length of the worktable 300. A rotation switching mechanism 400 is provided in the middle of the worktable 300 between the two stations. The adhesive application device 200 includes two clamping mechanisms 210 and a moving adhesive application mechanism 220. The two clamping mechanisms 210 are arranged in a back-to-back and collinear manner. The rotary switching mechanism 400 is installed on the worktable 300 between the two clamping mechanisms 210. The clamping mechanism 210 is movably connected to the worktable 300 through the rotary switching mechanism 400 and can switch between the scanning station 310 and the gluing station 320 under the drive of the rotary switching mechanism 400. The control device 100 integrates a control module, which establishes signal connections with each of the motors, scanning mechanism 500, cleaning mechanism and moving gluing mechanism 220 mentioned later, so as to realize the full-process automated control.

[0024] like Figures 2-4As shown, each clamping mechanism 210 includes two clamping ends 211, a slide table 212, a rotating plate 213, a first lead screw 2122, a first motor 2121, a second motor 2111, and a third motor 2131. The upper surface of the rotating plate 213 is provided with a slide rail along its length. The bottom of the two slide tables 212 is provided with corresponding grooves that match the slide rails. The slide tables 212 are slidably fitted onto the slide rails of the rotating plate 213 via the bottom grooves, forming a sliding fit structure. The slide tables 212 can move along the slide rails to adjust the distance between the two clamping ends 211. A drive screw hole is provided through the bottom of the slide table 212. The first lead screw 2122 is correspondingly provided on the rotating plate 213 below the two slide tables 212. The external thread of the first lead screw 2122 matches the drive screw hole. The middle part of the first lead screw 2122 is driven and connected to the output shaft of the first motor 2121 via a coupling. The first motor 2121 is fixed to a single slide table 212 by a bracket. Figure 3 The right slide 212 shown is electrically connected to the control device 100, which is connected to the first motor 2121. The control device 100 can control the start, stop, and forward / reverse rotation of the first motor 2121, driving the first lead screw 2122 to rotate, thereby driving the other slide 212 to rotate. Figure 3 The slide table 212 on the left side moves along the slide rail towards or away from each other, so as to realize the automatic adjustment of the spacing of the clamping end 211.

[0025] refer to Figure 4 Of the two clamping ends 211, one clamping end 211 is rotatably connected to the top of the corresponding slide 212 and can rotate around its own axis. The middle part of the slide 212 near the middle of the rotating plate 213 is hollow. A second motor 2111 is embedded and fixed in the hollow part of one clamping end 211. The output shaft of the second motor 2111 is connected to the corresponding clamping end 211 through a transmission belt. The control device 100 is connected to the second motor 2111. When the second motor 2111 is started, it can drive the clamping end 211 to rotate around its own axis, thereby driving the clamped ball 600 to rotate synchronously, forming a first rotational motion based on the two clamping ends 211.

[0026] As a preferred embodiment, the clamping mechanism 210 is equipped with a cleaning mechanism matching the adhesive head on one side. The cleaning mechanism includes a cleaning execution component, a drive component, and a mounting base. The mounting base is installed on the top of the clamping mechanism 210. The cleaning execution component includes a flexible cleaning brush and a cleaning liquid outlet. The cleaning brush is made of wear-resistant nylon material that does not easily shed fibers. It is arranged in a ring or semi-ring structure around the outside of the cleaning liquid outlet, with its bristles facing the center of the cleaning area, i.e., the adhesive head 223 to be cleaned. It can adhere to the outer surface of the adhesive head 223, especially around the outlet, for physical cleaning. The cleaning water pump outlet is embedded in the inner gap of the cleaning brush and is connected to an external cleaning liquid storage tank through a pipeline. The pipeline is equipped with a solenoid valve to control the on / off state, which can output cleaning liquid to the outlet and outer surface of the adhesive head 223. For example, a low-volatility cleaning liquid adapted to the properties of the adhesive can be used to avoid damaging the adhesive head material and achieve an enhanced cleaning effect by combining physical cleaning and liquid rinsing.

[0027] Furthermore, the mounting base is fixed to the bracket extending from the top of the clamping mechanism 210 by bolts, and the installation position corresponds to the movement trajectory of the glue head 223 to ensure that the cleaning mechanism can accurately align with the glue head 223; the height and horizontal position of the mounting base can be finely adjusted by the bracket to adapt to the cleaning needs of glue heads 223 of different specifications.

[0028] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes a miniature linear motor and an angle adjustment cylinder. The miniature linear motor is fixed on the mounting base and has a slider connected to the bracket of the cleaning execution assembly, which can drive the cleaning execution assembly to move in a direction closer to or further away from the glue head. The angle adjustment cylinder is mounted on the bracket of the cleaning execution assembly, and its piston rod end is connected to the fixing bracket of the cleaning brush, which is used to fine adjust the tilt angle of the cleaning brush to ensure that the bristles can closely fit the different curved positions of the glue head 223. The control device 100 is electrically connected to the solenoid valves of the miniature linear motor, the angle adjustment cylinder and the cleaning water pump, respectively, and can control the movement, angle adjustment and cleaning fluid output of the cleaning execution assembly.

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the rotary switching mechanism 400 includes a fourth motor 410, a first rotating seat, a rotating cavity 420, and a second rotating seat 430. The fourth motor 410 is mounted on the lower surface of the worktable 300 via a motor mount, and its output axis penetrates upward through the worktable 300 surface, and is driven to the bottom center of the first rotating seat via a coupling. The first rotating seat is cylindrical, and its top is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating cavity 420. The rotating cavity 420 has a hollow box-like structure, and a second rotating seat is fixedly mounted on one side wall facing the clamping mechanism 210. The movable seat 430 and the second rotating seat 430 are cylindrical with their axes set in the horizontal direction. They are adapted to the shaft hole and bearing set on one side of the rotating plate 213 to provide a fixed rotation center for the vertical rotation of the rotating plate 213. The rotating cavity 420 also has reserved installation space for the third motor 2131 to ensure that the gear transmission between the third motor 2131 and the rotating plate 213 is not interfered with. At the same time, the rotating cavity 420 can rotate with the first rotating seat around the vertical axis, driving the clamping mechanism 210 to switch between the scanning station 310 and the gluing station 320.

[0030] The control device 100 includes a scanning mechanism 500, and the moving glue application mechanism 220 includes a fifth motor 221, a second lead screw, a transmission cavity, a transmission table, and a glue head 223. The transmission cavity is vertically fixed to the top support of the worktable 300, and a vertical guide groove 222 is provided on one side wall. The second lead screw is vertically installed inside the transmission cavity, and its top is driven and connected to the output shaft of the fifth motor 221 through a coupling. The fifth motor 221 is fixed to the top of the transmission cavity. One side of the transmission table is slidably embedded in the guide groove 222, and the other side extends outward and is fixedly connected to the glue head 223. A threaded hole matching the second lead screw is provided at the sliding embedded part, and the second lead screw passes through the threaded hole. The control device 100 is electrically connected to the fifth motor 221 and can control the start, stop, forward and reverse rotation of the fifth motor 221, drive the transmission table to move up and down along the guide groove 222, and move the glue head 223 closer to or away from the ball 600 to realize the glue application action.

[0031] The working process of the device includes: Initial state and pre-clamping cleaning: The operator places the ball 600 to be coated with glue between the two clamping ends 211 of the clamping mechanism 210 on the side of the scanning station 310; the control device 100 sends a signal to the first motor 2121, the first motor 2121 starts and drives the first lead screw 2122 to rotate, which drives the two slides 212 to move towards each other along the slide rail of the rotating plate 213 until the two clamping ends 211 are in contact with the surface of the ball 600 and a preset clamping force is applied, thus completing the automatic clamping of the ball 600; After the device is powered on, all components reset—the two clamping mechanisms 210 are respectively in the initial positions of the scanning station 310 and the glue application station 320, the rotating plate 213 remains horizontal and the vertical rotation angle is 0°, and the glue head 223 of the moving glue application mechanism 220 is in a high position; the control device 100 sends a signal to the cleaning mechanism, driving the cleaning brush to approach the clamping end 211 of the clamping mechanism 210 until the cleaning brush is in contact with the outer surface of the glue head 223; then the cleaning brush rotates to clean any glue debris, dust and other impurities that may remain on the glue head 223, and at the same time the solenoid valve and water pump on the cleaning fluid outlet are opened to wash out the impurities generated during cleaning through the cleaning fluid; after cleaning is completed, the cleaning execution component resets to the initial position to avoid interfering with subsequent clamping actions.

[0032] Sphere 600 Scanning: After the sphere 600 is clamped, the control device 100 starts the scanning mechanism 500. The CCD camera and laser scanning module scan the surface of the sphere 600 from all directions and feed back the acquired information such as the position and shape of the groove 610 on the surface of the sphere 600 to the control module of the control device 100 in real time. The control module analyzes and processes the scanning information, automatically generates a glue application path that is adapted to the groove 610 of the sphere 600, and stores it in the system for later use, waiting for the workstation to switch.

[0033] After scanning and cleaning are completed, the control device 100 sends a signal to the fourth motor 410 of the rotary switching mechanism 400. The fourth motor 410 starts and drives the first rotating seat to rotate 180° around the vertical axis, which drives the rotating cavity 420 fixedly connected to the first rotating seat to rotate synchronously. This causes the clamping mechanism 210, which holds the scanned sphere 600, to switch from the scanning station 310 to the gluing station 320, while the other empty clamping mechanism 210 switches from the gluing station 320 to the scanning station 310, entering the clamping-scanning cycle for the next sphere 600, thus achieving continuous operation.

[0034] After the clamping mechanism 210, which holds the scanned sphere 600, reaches the glue application station 320, the control device 100 calls the pre-stored glue application path and simultaneously starts the second motor 2111, the third motor 2131, and the fifth motor 221: the second motor 2111 starts, driving the corresponding clamping end 211 to rotate around its own horizontal axis, causing the sphere 600 to synchronously perform the first rotational motion, that is, rotate around its own axis; the third motor 2131 starts, driving the rotating plate 213 to rotate around the center of the second rotating seat 430 along the vertical plane through the gear set, that is, the second rotational motion, the vertical rotation angle of the rotating plate 213 varies with the glue application. The path is adjusted in real time, causing the ball 600 to rotate synchronously, ensuring that each groove 610 on the surface of the ball 600 is accurately aligned with the glue head 223; at the same time, the fifth motor 221 starts, driving the second lead screw to rotate, causing the transmission table and the glue head 223 to move up and down along the guide groove 222 of the transmission cavity. The glue head 223 outputs glue to the grooves 610 on the surface of the ball 600 according to the glue application path, completing the glue application operation; during the glue application process, the control device 100 adjusts the speed of the second motor 2111 and the third motor 2131 and the direction of the fifth motor 221 in real time to ensure the uniformity of the glue layer and the glue application accuracy.

[0035] Reset and Retrieval: After the glue application is completed, the third motor 2131 is controlled to restore the vertical state of the rotating plate 213, and the control device 100 controls the fifth motor 221 to reverse, driving the glue head 223 to rise and reset along the guide groove 222; at the same time, the first motor 2121 is controlled to reverse, driving the two slides 212 to move in opposite directions along the slide rail of the rotating plate 213, and the clamping end 211 releases the ball 600. The operator takes out the glued ball 600 from the clamping mechanism 210 of the glue application station 320; then the rotation switching mechanism 400 is activated again, switching the empty clamping mechanism 210 back to the scanning station 310, the device returns to the initial state, and enters the next round of operation cycle; the whole process does not require personnel to touch the glue, realizing full automation.

[0036] Furthermore, when additional adhesive application is required: The control device 100 first receives the scanning data of the scanning mechanism 500 on the surface of the sphere 600. This data completely records the position, depth, outline size of the glue-filling groove 610 on the surface of the sphere 600 and the specific coordinates and shape information of other areas that need glue filling. The control device 100 performs targeted analysis and processing on the scanning data, automatically identifies and accurately locates all areas that need glue filling, and at the same time excludes normal areas on the surface of the sphere 600 that do not need glue filling, thus avoiding ineffective glue application. The control device 100, combining the features of the pre-positioned glue application area, the three-dimensional curved surface structure of the sphere 600, and the multi-dimensional rotational motion (first rotational motion, vertical rotational motion, and up-down movement of the glue head 223) achievable by the clamping mechanism 210, simulates and generates a dedicated glue application path adapted to the glue application operation. This path plans the optimal non-contact distance between the glue head 223 and the glue application area of ​​the sphere 600, the movement trajectory of the glue head 223, the glue output volume, and the movement speed. After the glue application path simulation analysis is completed, it is automatically stored in the control device 100 system for later use, ready for the clamping mechanism 210 to precisely switch the sphere 600 to the glue applicator. After position 320, the control device 100 calls the pre-stored glue application path and synchronously drives the clamping mechanism 210 to rotate the ball 600 in multiple dimensions according to the path requirements, so that the glue application area is aligned with the glue head 223 in sequence. At the same time, the glue head 223 of the moving glue application mechanism 220 is driven to move along the path and output glue, completing the automated and precise glue application. The entire process does not require personnel intervention to judge the glue application position and apply glue. This not only completely reduces the direct contact between personnel and harmful glue substances, but also solves the accuracy and quality defects of manual glue application, ensuring that the glue layer on the surface of the ball 600 is uniform and complete after glue application, meeting the usage and quality requirements of the ball 600.

[0037] This embodiment further optimizes the multi-dimensional rotational flexibility of the ball 600 by using the first rotational motion of the clamping end 211 around its main axis and the second rotational motion of the rotating plate 213 around the second rotating seat 430 in the vertical plane, and the vertical height control of the glue head by the fifth motor 221, ensuring that the grooves 610 on the surface of the ball 600 can be accurately coated with glue; at the same time, all actions are automatically controlled by the control device 100, which completely reduces manual operation, minimizes direct contact between personnel and glue, protects personnel health, and is suitable for glue application operations on various balls 600 with surface grooves 610 such as footballs, basketballs, and tennis balls.

[0038] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0039] The above embodiments only illustrate several implementation methods of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
