[0022] like Figure 1As shown in the embodiment of this utility model, the automatic tape application device includes: a carrier, a first support plate 10, a second support plate 20, a plurality of first positioning members 50, and a plurality of second positioning members 60. The first support plate 10 and the second support plate 20 are both disposed on the carrier. The first support plate 10 has a plurality of strip-shaped members 30 evenly spaced on it, which are used to adhere to one side of the fixture 200. The second support plate 20 is connected to the first support plate 10, and the second support plate 20 has a plurality of snap-fit ​​members evenly spaced on it, which are used to adhere to the other side of the fixture 200. Each strip-shaped member 30 has a pair of first positioning members 50 retractably disposed at both ends, and the second support plate 20 or the snap-fit ​​members have a pair of second positioning members 60 retractably disposed on it. The first positioning members 50 and the second positioning members 60 are used to adhere to the inner side of the fixture 200 near its four corners when the fixture 200 is placed on the first support plate 10 and the second support plate 20, thereby positioning the fixture 200.

[0023] Specifically, in this embodiment, the fixture 200 is a rectangular frame, and tape needs to be pasted on one long side of the rectangular frame. The tape is pre-pasted onto release paper, the length of which is greater than the length of the tape, and multiple strips of tape are pasted parallel to each other on the release paper. The strip 30 and the snap-fit ​​component are arranged parallel to each other, and the tape is adsorbed onto the strip 30. In use, the fixture 200 is snapped onto the strip 30 and the snap-fit ​​component, with the bottom surface of one long side of the fixture 200 abutting against the strip 30 and the bottom surface of the other long side abutting against the snap-fit ​​component. When the fixture 200 is pressed, the tape on the strip 30 is then adhered to the bottom surface of one side of the fixture 200.

[0024] In this embodiment, before placing the fixture 200, release paper is placed on the first support plate 10, and each piece of tape is aligned with a strip 30. The strip 30 uses negative pressure to absorb the tape. The release paper is then peeled off, with the adhesive side of the tape facing upwards. Each strip 30 has a pair of retractable first positioning members 50 at both ends. When the release paper is laid, the first positioning members 50 retract into the strip 30; after the release paper is peeled off, the first positioning members 50 extend out of the strip 30. Correspondingly, a pair of second positioning members 60 is also provided in the gap between two adjacent snap-fit ​​members on the second support plate 20, and a pair of second positioning members 60 is also provided on the snap-fit ​​member adjacent to the strip 30. When the jig 200 is snapped onto the strip 30 and the snap-fit ​​member, the first positioning member 50 and the second positioning member 60 are abutted against the inner side of the jig 200, that is, against the inner side of the rectangular frame near the four corners, to position the jig 200. The bottom surface of one long side of the jig 200 abuts against the strip 30, and the bottom surface of the other long side abuts against the snap-fit ​​member. When the jig 200 is pressed, the tape on the strip 30 can be adhered to the bottom surface of one side of the jig 200, thus ensuring that the tape is consistently adhered to each jig 200.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the number of adhesive tapes on the release paper matches the number of strips 30 and snap-fit ​​pieces. For example, if there are 10 adhesive tapes on the release paper, the number of strips 30 and snap-fit ​​pieces is also 10. By using the automatic tape-applying device provided in this embodiment, after 10 adhesive tapes are simultaneously adsorbed onto 10 strips 30, the tapes can be individually applied to different fixtures 200. Specifically, in... Figure 1 In the process of applying tape, the adhesive tape is applied sequentially from left to right. For ease of description, the snap-fit ​​parts and strip parts 30 are numbered sequentially from right to left, with the rightmost one being the first and the leftmost one being the last. When applying the tape, first, the fixture 200 is snapped onto the first snap-fit ​​part and the first strip part 30. At this time, the second positioning part 60 adjacent to the first snap-fit ​​part extends, while the remaining second positioning parts 60 retract. The first positioning part 50 on the first strip part 30 extends, while the remaining first positioning parts 50 retract. Press the fixture 200 to adhere the tape on the first strip part 30 to the fixture 200. Remove the fixture 200 and replace it with a new fixture 200. Snap the new fixture 200 onto the second snap-fit ​​part and the second strip part 30. At this time, the second positioning part 60 adjacent to the first snap-fit ​​part retracts into the second support plate 20. The second positioning member 60 between the second and third snap-fit ​​members extends to fit against the inside of the fixture 200, and the first positioning member 50 on the second strip 30 extends to fit against the inside of the fixture 200. Pressing the fixture 200 causes the tape on the second strip 30 to adhere to the new fixture 200. By following this method and operating sequentially from right to left, the tape on multiple strips 30 can be successively adhered to different fixtures 200, improving the tape adhesion effect.

[0026] The automatic tape-applying device provided in this embodiment of the utility model, by setting a first positioning member 50 and a second positioning member 60, allows the first positioning member 50 to avoid obstacles when the release paper is laid and to position the fixture 200 when it is placed. The second positioning member 60 can also position the fixture 200. When applying tape to the fixture 200, the placement position of the fixture 200 can be positioned to ensure the consistency of the tape after application. At the same time, multiple tapes can be applied to different strips 30 simultaneously. By moving the placement position of the fixture 200, tapes can be applied to different fixtures 200 one by one, thereby improving the efficiency of tape application.

[0027] like Figure 1As shown, in an embodiment of this utility model, the automatic tape-applying device further includes multiple first drivers 91. The movable end of each first driver 91 is connected to a first positioning member 50, and the fixed end of each first driver 91 is connected to the bottom surface of the first support plate 10. The first drivers 91 are used to drive the first positioning members 50 to extend or retract. The two ends of the strip 30 are respectively provided with first through holes 31, and the first positioning members 50 are disposed in the first through holes 31. When release paper needs to be laid on the strip 30, the first positioning members 50 move downward under the drive of the first drivers 91 and retract into the first through holes 31; when the fixture 200 needs to be positioned, the first positioning members 50 move upward under the drive of the first drivers 91 and extend out of the first through holes 31.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, in an embodiment of this utility model, the multiple snap-fit ​​components include: a first snap-fit ​​component 41 and multiple second snap-fit ​​components 42. The first snap-fit ​​component 41 is connected to a strip component 30, and a pair of second positioning components 60 are retractably provided at both ends of the first snap-fit ​​component 41. The multiple second snap-fit ​​components 42 are arranged parallel to each other on the second support plate 20, and a pair of second positioning components 60 are provided in the gap between the first snap-fit ​​component 41 and the second snap-fit ​​component 42, as well as in the gap between two adjacent second snap-fit ​​components 42.

[0029] Specifically, since there is no gap between the strip 30 and the first snap-fit ​​member 41, a pair of second positioning members 60 are set on the first snap-fit ​​member 41 so that when the first tape is pasted, the second positioning members 60 position the fixture 200, while the remaining second positioning members 60 are all set in the gap between adjacent snap-fit ​​members.

[0030] Furthermore, the automatic tape application device also includes multiple second drivers. The movable end of each second driver is connected to a second positioning member 60, and the fixed end of each second driver is connected to the bottom surface of the second support plate 20. The first snap-fit ​​member 41, the gap between the first snap-fit ​​member 41 and the second snap-fit ​​member 42, and the gap between two adjacent second snap-fit ​​members 42 are all provided with a pair of second through holes 421. Under the action of the second drivers, the second positioning member 60 can retract into the second through hole 421 or extend out of the second through hole 421 to the top of the second snap-fit ​​member 42 to position the fixture 200.

[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, in an embodiment of this utility model, a first groove 422 is provided on one side of the second snap-fit ​​member 42. The first groove 422 communicates with the second through hole 421. The second positioning member 60 can slide along the first groove 422. The first groove 422 can guide the movement of the second positioning member 60.

[0032] In an embodiment of this utility model, the automatic tape application device further includes a negative pressure mechanism. The strip 30 is provided with a third through hole 32, which is connected to the negative pressure mechanism. The third through hole 32 is used to adsorb the tape onto the strip 30 using negative pressure.

[0033] Specifically, when the release paper is laid on the multiple strips 30, the adhesive tape is positioned on the third through hole 32. A vacuum mechanism is used to create a negative pressure within the third through hole 32, thereby adsorbing the adhesive tape onto the strips 30. At this point, the release paper can be peeled off. In this embodiment, the negative pressure mechanism may include a pipe and a vacuum pump, with the pipe connected to the third through hole 32 and the vacuum pump.

[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the strip 30 has a second groove 33 along its length, and the adhesive tape is disposed within the second groove 33. The bottom of the second groove 33 has multiple third through holes 32. The second groove 33 forms a space for accommodating the adhesive tape, thereby positioning the tape's swinging position. In this embodiment, the bottom of the second groove 33 has multiple third through holes 32 to firmly adhere the adhesive tape to the strip 30. In this embodiment, by using negative pressure to adhere the adhesive tape to the strip 30, multiple strips of adhesive tape can be laid on different strips 30 at once, eliminating the need to place the tape on each strip 30 individually, thus improving the efficiency of the fixture 200 when applying adhesive tape.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, in an embodiment of this utility model, the automatic tape pasting device further includes a pair of positioning plates 70, which are vertically and flexibly disposed on both sides of the first support plate 10, and the pair of positioning plates 70 are used to abut against both sides of the release paper.

[0036] Specifically, in this embodiment, the carrier includes: a base plate 100, a plurality of fixing posts 101, and a pair of support members 102. The base plate 100 is provided with a plurality of fixing posts 101, some of which are connected to a first support plate 10, and the remaining fixing posts 101 are connected to a second support plate 20. The bottom surface of the first support plate 10 is provided with a pair of support members 102, each support member 102 being slidably connected to a positioning plate 70, so that the positioning plate 70 can be raised and lowered relative to the first support plate 10. When release paper is laid on the strip 30, the pair of positioning plates 70 rise to abut against both sides of the release paper, thereby positioning the release paper in the left-right direction so that the tape is precisely located within the second groove 33.

[0037] Furthermore, the automatic tape application device also includes a third actuator 92, and the carrier further includes a connecting plate 103. The connecting plate 103 is connected to a pair of positioning plates 70. The movable end of the third actuator 92 is connected to the positioning plates 70, and the fixed end of the third actuator 92 is used to connect to external equipment. When the third actuator 92 is activated, it can drive the pair of positioning plates 70 to rise and fall simultaneously through the connecting plate 103. When the positioning plates 70 move upward, they are opposite to the strip 30, thereby positioning the release paper. When the positioning plates 70 move downward, they abut against the base plate 100. Optionally, in the above-described embodiments, the first actuator 91, the second actuator, and the third actuator 92 can all be cylinders, electric cylinders, etc.

[0038] like Figure 4 As shown in the embodiment of this utility model, the automatic tape applicator further includes a pair of fixing blocks 81 and a pair of sliders 82. The pair of fixing blocks 81 are respectively disposed on both sides of a pair of support members 102, and a portion of each slider 82 is embedded within a fixing block 81. A groove is provided on one side of the positioning plate 70, and the slider 82 is embedded in the groove. Under the action of the third actuator 92, the positioning plate 70 can move relative to the slider 82. When laying the release paper, the positioning plate 70 slides to face the strip member 30. After the tape is adsorbed onto the strip member 30, the positioning plate 70 moves downwards and abuts against the base plate 100.

[0039] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the inventive concept of this utility model and the contents of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
