[0002] In the manufacturing of some drone shells, a process requires the insertion of metal nuts and adhesive application for fixation. Nuts are crucial components for securing the SDR module; they must be installed in specific areas before adhesive is applied and cured using light. Currently, the adhesive curing process is performed using adhesive curing equipment, while the nut assembly is done manually, followed by transfer to the equipment. This presents several problems: nuts may be missing or fall off; nuts may fall during manual assembly and dispensing, resulting in products without nuts being shipped to the downstream end; the shell is an injection-molded part, and dimensions vary between batches, leading to potential misalignment of nuts during manual assembly; the complex shape of drone shells and inaccurate fixture positioning pose risks of adhesive overflow and damage to the shell from the dispensing needle, significantly reducing assembly efficiency.

[0012] Please see Figures 1-6 In this embodiment of the present invention, a dispensing and curing device with nut assembly function includes: a base 1, a conveyor belt 3, and a three-axis module 2. The upper surface of the base 1 is a plate 11. The three-axis module 2 and the conveyor belt 3 for conveying materials are fixedly installed on the plate 11. An installation component 6 for nut assembly or nut dispensing is connected in the z-axis direction of the three-axis module 2. The three-axis module 2 is used to drive the installation component 6 to move relative to the conveyor belt 3 in the x, y, and z directions. The three-axis module 2 is provided with multiple sets of installation components 6. A curing component 5 for curing the dispensing material is installed at the end of the conveyor belt 3. The installation component 6 is located above the conveyor belt 3. Mounting component 6 includes an assembly 61 for assembling nuts and an adhesive dispensing component 62 for gluing nuts. In the material conveying sequence of the conveyor belt 3, the assembly 61 is positioned in front of the adhesive dispensing component 62, meaning that the material conveyed by the conveyor belt 3 first passes through the assembly 61 and then through the adhesive dispensing component 62. The assembly 61 is provided with a movable guide rail 611, a guide rail slider 612, and a nut suction nozzle 615 for picking up nuts. The nut suction nozzle 615 is mounted on the guide rail slider 612, and the guide rail slider 612 is slidably mounted on the movable guide rail 611.

[0013] The three-axis module 2 is installed on one side of the conveyor belt 3, and the x-axis and y-axis moving areas of the three-axis module 2 can cover the area of ​​at least one set of material carrier plates 34 on the conveyor belt 3. The curing component 5 is located at the end of the conveyor belt 3, in the area where the material is about to be picked up, and is located behind the area covered by the three-axis module 2. When the conveyor belt 3 conveys the material, it first passes under the assembly component 61 of the assembly nut. The assembly component 61 is driven by the movement of the three-axis module 2 in the y-axis and z-axis directions to assemble the nut. Then the conveyor belt 3 moves the material to the underside of the dispensing component 62 for dispensing. Finally, the material is transported by the conveyor belt 3 to the curing component 5 for curing of the dispensing.

[0014] It should be noted that the nut suction nozzle 615 is a hollow suction tube. It is driven by an external air source to perform suction and release. When negative pressure is applied, the nut suction nozzle 615 can suck up and lift the nut. When the negative pressure is removed, the nut suction nozzle 615 releases the nut, and the nut falls under the control of gravity. At the same time, the guide rail slider 612 and the moving guide rail 611 can supplement the z-axis direction of the three-axis module 2, providing a smaller range of z-axis movement to adjust the falling height of the nut. The nut suction nozzle 615 rises and falls along with the guide rail slider 612 as it moves on the moving guide rail 611.

[0015] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown, a cover 4 is connected above the base 1. The cover 4 covers and wraps the machine plate 11. The three-axis module 2, the conveyor belt 3 and the curing component 5 are located inside the cover 4.

[0016] As a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 2 and 3 As shown, a conveyor belt 3 is installed on the machine plate 11. A three-axis module 2 and a nut feeder 7 are installed on both sides of the conveyor belt 3 respectively. The three-axis module 2 crosses the conveyor belt 3 above the conveyor belt 3 and contacts the nut feeder 7. The curing component 5 is located above one end of the conveyor belt 3. The curing component 5 has two sets of curing stations. The nut feeder 7 is used to store and transport nuts. The assembly 61 on the three-axis module 2 picks up the nuts from the nut feeder 7. The guide rail slider 612 and the moving guide rail 611 cooperate to lift the nuts on the z-axis. Then, the three-axis module 2 transports the nuts to the top of the conveyor belt 3.

[0017] In this embodiment, as Figure 3As shown, the three-axis module 2 has a horizontal structure 22 along the x-axis, a vertical structure 23 along the y-axis, and a vertical structure 24 along the z-axis. The three-axis module 2 is fixed by a mounting bracket 21, which lifts the horizontal structure 22 above the conveyor belt 3. Two sets of vertical structures 23 are vertically connected above the horizontal structure 22, and the horizontal and vertical structures 23 are on the same horizontal plane. One end of the vertical structure 23 is vertically connected to a vertical structure 24. One set of vertical structures 24 connects to the assembly component 61, and the other set connects to the dispensing component 62. Figure 2 The length of the longitudinal structure 23 must be able to span the width of the conveyor belt 3. The working sequence of the curing component 5, the assembly 61 and the dispensing component 62 on the conveyor belt 3 is assembly 61, dispensing component 62 and curing component 5.

[0018] It should be noted that the number of longitudinal structures 23 on the three-axis module 2 is not fixed, and each set of longitudinal structures 23 is connected to an installation component 6, which can be adjusted according to actual processing needs, such as increasing the number of assembly components 61 or dispensing components 62. At the same time, the number of stations on the curing component 5 can also be adjusted.

[0019] As a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the servo motor and reducer 32 are located at one end of the conveyor belt 3, combined with... Figure 2 The servo motor and reducer 32 are located at one end of the conveyor belt 3 near the curing component 5. The servo motor and reducer 32 are connected to the synchronous belt 31. There are two sets of synchronous belts 31 with a gap between them. Multiple sets of carrier plates 34 for loading products are connected above the synchronous belts 31. A guide rail 33 is fixed between the two sets of synchronous belts 31. A slider is connected below the carrier plate 34 and is connected to the guide rail 33.

[0020] It should be noted that the servo motor and reducer 32 can be installed at either end of the conveyor belt 3. The servo motor and reducer 32 must be connected to a reducer. Since the synchronous belt 3 involves the part of the carrier plate 34 facing the ground, the material needs to be removed after the curing component 5 is finished on the synchronous belt 3, and it needs to be fixed by the guide rail 33 and the slider below the carrier plate 34.

[0021] As a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 5As shown, an assembly 61, a vision positioning component 63, and a light source 64 are provided on the mounting component 6 at the material feeding end of the conveyor belt 3. On the connecting plate between the vertical structure 24 and the mounting component 6, the vision positioning component 63 and the light source 64 are in one row on the working surface of the connecting plate, the assembly 61 is in another row, and the light source 64 is below the vision positioning component 63. The moving guide rail 611 on the assembly 61 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate. A guide rail slider 612 is installed on the moving guide rail 611. An mounting block is installed on the guide rail slider 612. A connecting nut suction nozzle 615 is installed below the mounting block. A spring 613 is connected above the mounting block. A spring plate is vertically fixed on the connecting plate. The other end of the spring 613 is installed on the spring plate. A displacement sensor 614 is connected to the spring plate.

[0022] The nut suction nozzle 615 is used to pick up the nut from the nut feeder 7 and place it on the material on the carrier plate 34 through the three-axis module 2. During this process, the vision positioning component 63, together with the light source 64, positions and judges the position of the nut and the product. At the same time, the spring 613 absorbs the force on the nut suction nozzle 615 to prevent the nut suction nozzle 615 from making inaccurate distance adjustment when contacting the nut or to prevent it from applying pressure to the product and the nut.

[0023] As a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 6 As shown, the mounting component 6, located near the curing component 5, is equipped with a dispensing component 62, a vision positioning component 63, and a light source 64. The dispensing component 62 is positioned in one row on the working surface of the connecting plate, while the vision positioning component 63 and the light source 64 are positioned in another row, with the light source 64 located below the vision positioning component 63. The glue tube mounting component 621 on the dispensing component 62 is directly mounted on the working surface of the connecting plate, and a dispensing nozzle 622 is mounted below the glue tube mounting component 621.

[0024] During the processing, the hose is installed in the hose mounting part 621, and the outlet of the hose is connected to the dispensing nozzle 622. The material with nuts placed on the lower carrier plate 34 is positioned and judged by the visual positioning part 63 and the light source 64. Then, the glue in the hose is released to the area around the nuts through the dispensing nozzle 622.

[0025] When using this embodiment for production processing, the outer shell material is first placed on the carrier plate 34 at the feeding end of the conveyor belt 3. The carrier plate 34 transports the material to the three-axis module 2. The initial position of the assembly 61 is above the nut feeder 7. By connecting negative pressure to the nut suction nozzle 615, the nut is sucked up. Then, the three-axis module 2 lifts the nut and moves it above the carrier plate 34 where the material is placed. Light is provided by the light source 64, and the position of the material and the nut is determined by the vision positioning device 63. Then, the three-axis module 2 places the nut on the material. The negative pressure of the nut suction nozzle 615 disappears, the nut is put down, and then the three-axis module 2 lifts the nut suction nozzle 615 and moves it to the nut feeder 7 to suck up the nut again. The above operation is repeated.

[0026] After the nut placement process is completed, the material is transported to the rear via the carrier plate 34. When the carrier plate 34 is below the dispensing component 62, the vision positioning component 63 positions the material carrier plate 34 with the nut placed on it. The dispensing nozzle 622 is brought close to the nut via the three-axis module 2. Then, the adhesive in the tube on the tube mounting component 621 is dispensed. After completion, the dispensing nozzle 622 is lifted to wait for the next carrier plate 34 and the above operation is repeated.

[0027] After the glued nuts and outer shell materials are finished, they are moved from the carrier plate 34 to the curing component 5 to cure the glue. Since curing the glue takes time, the curing component 5 provides multiple workstations. After the glue is cured, the carrier plate 34 is transported to the material pick-up point by the synchronous belt 31 to remove the processed material. The empty carrier plate 34 moves from the back of the working surface of the conveyor belt 3 to the material discharge end.

[0028] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
