The dispensing components 22 are arranged on the first support 21 along the length extension direction of the first support 21, and each of the dispensing components 22 can move along the length extension direction of the first support 21; the erasing module 40 is arranged next to the transport robot 30, and the erasing module 40 is used to erase the dispensing components 22; wherein, the transport robot 30 can transport the dispensing module 20 to the top of the dispensing station 10a, and the transport robot 30 can also transport the dispensing module 20 to the erasing module 40.

[0040] In the present invention, when the target glue object is transported to the glue dispensing station 10a through the conveying module 10, the transport robot 30 transports the glue dispensing module 20 to the top of the glue dispensing station 10a, so that the glue dispensing module 20 is located above the target glue object; and according to the distribution distance of the glue dispensing positions on the target glue object, the glue dispensing component 22 on the first support 21 is controlled to move along the length extension direction of the first support 21, thereby changing the spacing between adjacent glue dispensing components 22, so that the spacing between the glue dispensing components 22 corresponds to the distribution distance of the glue dispensing positions, so that the glue dispensing module 20 is located above the target glue object. The glue component 22 can accurately drop glue on the gluing position of the target object; after the gluing module 20 completes gluing the target object, the transport robot 30 transports the gluing module 20 to the wiping module 40, so that the gluing component 22 can be wiped, so as to smoothly carry out the next round of gluing work; the use of this technical solution realizes the intelligent loading of the gluing machine 100, the intelligent adjustment of the spacing between the gluing components 22, and the intelligent wiping, which effectively improves the gluing efficiency of the gluing machine 100 and solves the technical problem of low gluing efficiency of the gluing machine 100 in the prior art.

[0041] In some specific embodiments, the handling robot 30 may be a six-axis robot, which can realize a programmable dispensing path of the dispensing module 20 through the six-axis robot, thereby improving the flexibility of the handling robot 30 in handling the dispensing module 20.

[0042] In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 1 , the glue dispensing machine 100 further includes a machine platform 50 , and the conveying module 10 , the handling robot 30 , and the glue erasing module 40 are disposed on the machine platform 50 .

[0043] In one embodiment, the dispensing machine 100 further includes a housing (not shown in the figure), which is disposed on the machine platform 50 and covers the conveying module 10, the handling robot 30, the dispensing module 20, the eraser module 40, etc.

[0044] In one embodiment, the dispensing machine 100 further includes a photographing and detecting component (not shown), which is disposed above the dispensing station 10a. Specifically, before the dispensing module 20 dispenses glue, the photographing and detecting component can be used to determine whether the target dispensing object has arrived at the dispensing station 10a. After the dispensing module 20 completes dispensing, the photographing and detecting component can be used to photograph the dispensed product to detect the dispensing effect.

[0045] In some specific embodiments, the height of the shooting and detection component relative to the dispensing station 10a is 1836 mm, and the field of view of the shooting and detection component is 2000 mm in length and 1333 mm in width.

[0046] In some specific embodiments, the photographing and detecting component is disposed on the top of the housing, so that the photographing and detecting component is located above the dispensing station 10a.

[0047] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 2, the dispensing module 20 also includes a rack 23 arranged on the first support 21, and the length extension direction of the rack 23 is the same as the length extension direction of the first support 21; the dispensing assembly 22 includes a sliding plate 221, a glue nozzle 222, a first rotating drive member 223 and a gear 224, the sliding plate 221 is movably arranged on the first support 21, the glue nozzle 222 is arranged on the sliding plate 221, the first rotating drive member 223 is arranged on the sliding plate 221, the power output end of the first rotating drive member 223 is connected to the gear 224, and the gear 224 is meshed with the rack 23.

[0048] Specifically, when the spacing between the glue dispensing components 22 needs to be adjusted, the first rotating drive member 223 is started to drive the gear 224 to rotate. Since the gear 224 is meshed and connected with the rack 23, during the rotation of the gear 224, the gear 224 moves along the rack 23, thereby driving the sliding plate 221 to move along the length extension direction of the first support 21, and the glue nozzle 222 set on the sliding plate 221 moves accordingly, thereby realizing the adjustment of the spacing between the glue nozzles 222.

[0049] In some specific embodiments, nine groups of dispensing components 22 are provided.

[0050] In some specific embodiments, referring to FIG2 , the dispensing module 20 further includes a guide rail 24 and a slider 25. The guide rail 24 is provided on the first support 21, and the length extension direction of the guide rail 24 is the same as the length extension direction of the first support 21. Each of the dispensing components 22 is provided with a slider 25, and the slider 25 is slidably connected to the guide rail 24. Thus, each dispensing component 22 is movably connected relative to the first support 21, and the movement of the dispensing component 22 is guided by the guide rail 24.

[0051] In some specific embodiments, the slider 25 is disposed on the hanging plate 221 .

[0052] In one embodiment, referring to FIG2 , the dispensing module 20 further includes a plurality of position detection components 26 , each group of the position detection components 26 being used to detect the position of each of the dispensing components 22 ; the detection components include a first sensing member 261 and a second sensing member 262 , the first sensing member 261 being arranged on the first support 21 , the second sensing member 262 being arranged on the dispensing component 22 , and the second sensing member 262 being used to sense the first sensing member 261 .

[0053] Specifically, when the first sensing element 261 senses the second sensing element 262, the position of the dispensing component 22 corresponding to the group of position detection components 26 relative to the first support 21 is defined as the origin position of the group of dispensing components 22. Therefore, the position of the dispensing component 22 can be obtained through the detection signal of the position detection component 26 corresponding to the dispensing component 22, and then the first rotating drive component 223 is controlled to drive the gear 224 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise according to the distance adjustment needs.

[0054] In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 1 , the glue dispensing machine 100 further includes a glue supply module 60 . The glue supply module 60 is in communication with the glue spraying nozzle 222 for supplying glue to the glue spraying nozzle 222 .

[0055] In some specific embodiments, the glue supply module 60 uses a motor to drive the screw to rotate to supply glue, so that the amount of glue supplied can be adjusted, which can effectively solve the problems of uneven glue supply and too low glue supply pressure.

[0056] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 3, the eraser module 40 includes a second support 41, a first reel assembly 42 and a second reel assembly 43, the first reel assembly 42 is rotatably arranged at one end of the second support 41, the second reel assembly 43 includes a second rotation driving member 431 and a second reel 432, the second rotation driving member 431 is arranged at the second end of the second support 41, the power output end of the second rotation driving member 431 is connected to the second reel 432, and the second rotation driving member 431 drives the second reel 432 to rotate; wherein, a rubber cloth 44 is wound on the first reel assembly 42, and the rubber cloth 44 is drawn out from the first reel assembly 42 and then tightly wound on the second reel 432, and the transport robot 30 transports the dispensing module 20 to the rubber cloth 44 tightened between the first reel assembly 42 and the second reel 432.

[0057] The second rotating drive member 431 drives the second reel 432 to rotate so as to wind the wiping cloth 44 so that the wiping cloth 44 between the second reel 432 and the first reel assembly 42 is tightened; after the dispensing module 20 completes dispensing, the transporting robot 30 transports the dispensing module 20 to the wiping cloth 44 tightened between the first reel assembly 42 and the second reel 432, and then the transporting robot 30 drives the dispensing module 20 to move horizontally repeatedly on the wiping cloth 44, thereby realizing the wiping of the glue nozzle 222 by the wiping cloth 44, avoiding the glue nozzle 222 from being blocked, overflowing, or hanging. After completing a round of wiping, the second rotating drive member 431 drives the second reel 432 to rotate again, winding the waste wiping cloth that has been wiped with glue onto the second reel 432, and pulling the new wiping cloth 44 to be tightened between the first reel assembly 42 and the second reel 432 for the next round of wiping.

[0058] In some specific embodiments, referring to FIG3 , the first reel assembly 42 includes a damper 421 and a first reel 422. The damper 421 is disposed on the second support 41, and the first reel 422 is connected to the damper 421. This allows the first reel 422 to rotate and the rotation speed of the first reel 422 to be controlled, thereby keeping the eraser 44 between the first reel 422 and the second reel 432 taut.

[0059] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 3, the eraser module 40 further includes a plurality of first guide wheel assemblies 45 and a plurality of second guide wheel assemblies 46, all of which are arranged on the second support 41. In the direction in which the first reel assembly 42 points to the second reel assembly 43, the first guide wheel assemblies 45 and the second guide wheel assemblies 46 are arranged one by one in an alternating manner, and the second guide wheel assembly 46 is arranged higher than the first guide wheel assembly 45. The second guide wheel assembly 46 includes two second guide wheels 461, and the two second guide wheels 461 are arranged at equal heights. After the eraser cloth 44 is drawn out from the first reel assembly 42, it passes by the bottom of the first guide wheel assembly 45 and passes by the top of the second guide wheel 461 and then is wound around the second reel 432. The eraser cloth 44 stretched tight between the two second guide wheels 461 is used to wipe the dispensing module 20.

[0060] In this embodiment, in the direction in which the first roller assembly 42 points to the second roller assembly 43, the first guide wheel assembly 45 and the second guide wheel assembly 46 are arranged one by one in an alternating manner, that is, the first guide wheel assembly 45 is provided on both sides of the second guide wheel assembly 46, and the first guide assembly is lower than the second guide wheel assembly 46. Therefore, after the rubber cloth 44 led out from the first roller assembly 42 passes through the bottom of each first guide wheel and the top of each second guide wheel 461 in turn and is wound around the second roller 432, the pressure of the first guide wheel on the rubber cloth 44 and the pressure of the second guide wheel 461 on the rubber cloth 44 are opposite, thereby increasing the tension of the rubber cloth 44; and the second guide wheel assembly 46 includes two second guide wheels 461 set at the same height. Therefore, the rubber cloth 44 located between the two second guide wheels 461 is tightened and arranged horizontally, so that it can improve the wiping effect on the glue nozzle 222 of the glue dispensing module 20.

[0061] In one embodiment, referring to FIG3 , the eraser module 40 further includes a plurality of support assemblies 47 , and the plurality of support assemblies 47 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of second guide wheel assemblies 46 , and the support assemblies 47 include a first lifting drive member 471 and a support platform 472 , the first lifting drive member 471 is arranged on the second support 41 , the power output end of the first lifting drive member 471 is connected to the support platform 472 , and the support platform 472 is located below the eraser cloth 44 stretched between the two second guide wheels 461 .

[0062] Specifically, when the glue dispensing module 20 needs to be wiped, the first lifting drive member 471 starts to drive the support platform 472 to rise, and the support platform 472 abuts against the wiping tape 44 stretched between the two second guide wheels 461, providing rigid support for the wiping tape 44, so that the glue nozzle 222 is always in contact with the wiping tape 44 during wiping, ensuring that the glue is wiped in place, preventing glue leakage, and further improving the wiping effect.

[0063] In some specific embodiments, the number of support assemblies 47 is set according to the number of second guide wheel assemblies 46. For example, if nine groups of second guide wheel assemblies 46 are set, then nine groups of support assemblies 47 are set, so that nine support platforms 472 respectively support the erasers 44 on the nine groups of second guide wheel assemblies 46.

[0064] In one embodiment, referring to FIG3 , the eraser module 40 further includes a collecting box 48 disposed on the second support 41 , and the collecting box 48 is located below the eraser cloth 44 tightened between the first roller assembly 42 and the second roller 432 , and the collecting box 48 is used to collect glue dropped during eraser operation.

[0065] Specifically, when the transport robot 30 drives the dispensing module 20 to repeatedly move horizontally on the wiping cloth 44 to wipe the glue, glue may fall off. The falling glue is collected by the collection box 48, thereby avoiding contamination of the dispensing machine 100 by the glue.

[0066] In one embodiment, referring to FIG3 , the eraser module 40 further includes a third sensor 49 configured to detect the remaining amount of the eraser sheet 44 on the first reel assembly 42. Specifically, based on the sensing information from the third sensor 49, the remaining amount of the eraser sheet 44 on the first reel assembly 42 can be detected. When the remaining amount of the eraser sheet 44 is determined to be insufficient, the eraser sheet 44 can be replenished in a timely manner.

[0067] Referring to Figure 4, the conveying module 10 includes a conveying bracket 11, multiple rollers 12 and a third rotating drive assembly (not shown in the figure). The multiple rollers 12 are rotatably arranged at intervals on the conveying bracket 11. The power output end of the third rotating drive assembly is connected to the rollers 12 to drive the rollers 12 to rotate, thereby realizing the conveyance of the target dispensing object; at the same time, the use of roller 12-type conveying can carry relatively heavy or relatively large target dispensing objects.

[0068] In some specific embodiments, the third rotation drive assembly is driven by a variable frequency motor, which can adjust the rotation speed of the roller 12 and control the conveying speed of the conveying module 10.

[0069] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 1 and 4, the dispensing machine 100 also includes a first blocking module 70, which is arranged near the outlet end of the dispensing station 10a. The first blocking module 70 has a first blocking state and a first avoidance state. In the first blocking state, the first blocking module 70 blocks the target dispensing object so that the target dispensing object is located on the dispensing station 10a; in the first avoidance state, the first blocking module 70 avoids the target dispensing object so that the target dispensing object leaves the dispensing station 10a.

[0070] Specifically, when the conveying module 10 conveys the target glue object to the glue dispensing station 10a, the first blocking module 70 switches to the first blocking state. The first blocking module 70 blocks the target glue object so that the target glue object is located on the glue dispensing station 10a, avoiding the target glue object from being inertially transferred out of the glue dispensing station 10a, etc., ensuring that the target glue object is accurately retained on the glue dispensing station 10a for glue dispensing; when the glue dispensing is completed, the first blocking module 70 switches to the avoidance state, so that the target glue object leaves the glue dispensing station 10a and the next target glue object enters the glue dispensing station 10a.

[0071] In some specific embodiments, referring to FIG4 , the first baffle module 70 includes a second lifting drive assembly 71 and a first baffle plate 72. The second lifting drive assembly 71 is arranged below the drum 12. The power output end of the second lifting drive assembly 71 is connected to the first baffle plate 72. The second lifting drive assembly 71 drives the first baffle plate 72 to perform lifting and lowering movements in the interval space of the drum 12 so that the first baffle plate 72 switches to the first baffle state or the first avoidance state.

[0072] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 1 and 4 , the dispensing machine 100 further includes a fourth sensor 80 , which is positioned adjacent to the exit of the dispensing station 10a . The fourth sensor 80 is configured to sense whether the target dispensing object has reached the dispensing station 10a .

[0073] The target dispensing object includes a pad and a target dispensing workpiece placed on the pad.

[0074] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 1 and 5, in the first blocking state, the first blocking module 70 blocks the pad; the dispensing machine 100 also includes a pushing module 90, which is arranged near the outlet end of the dispensing station 10a. In the conveying direction of the conveying module 10, the pushing module 90 has a retracted state and an extended state. When the pushing module 90 switches to the extended state, the pushing module 90 moves toward the target dispensing workpiece to push the target dispensing workpiece; when the pushing module 90 switches to the retracted state, the pushing module 90 moves away from the target dispensing workpiece.

[0075] Specifically, when the conveying module 10 conveys the target glue object to the glue dispensing station 10a, the first blocking module 70 switches to the first blocking state, and the first blocking module 70 blocks the pad so that the target glue object is located as a whole on the glue dispensing station 10a; then, the pushing module 90 switches to the extended state along the conveying direction of the conveying module 10, and the conveying direction of the conveying module 10 is defined as the same as the Y direction, then the pushing module 90 moves toward the target glue workpiece along the Y direction, pushing the target glue workpiece to move a certain distance on the pad, thereby realizing the positioning of the target glue workpiece on the pad, and realizing the positioning of the glue workpiece in the Y direction, so as to correct the movement of the target glue workpiece relative to the pad during the conveying process, thereby ensuring accurate glue alignment; after the glue is completed, the material return module switches to the retracted state, and the pushing module 90 moves away from the target glue workpiece, thereby releasing the push on the target glue workpiece.

[0076] In some specific embodiments, referring to FIG5 , the pushing module 90 includes a first transverse driving assembly 91 and a first pushing plate 92. The first pushing plate 92 is connected to the power output end of the first transverse driving assembly 91. The first transverse driving assembly 91 drives the first pushing plate 92 to move transversely, so that the first pushing plate 92 extends or retracts relative to the first transverse driving assembly 91, that is, the first pushing plate 92 switches to an extended state or a retracted state.

[0077] In some specific embodiments, see Figure 5, the pushing module 90 also includes a third lifting drive component 93, and the power output end of the third lifting drive component 93 is connected to the first transverse drive component 91. The third lifting drive component 93 drives the first transverse drive component 91 to drive the first pushing plate 92 to move up and down, so that in the height direction, the first pushing plate 92 can align with or avoid the target dispensing workpiece; specifically, when the first pushing plate 92 is in an extended state, the first pushing plate 92 is aligned with the target dispensing workpiece in the height direction; when the first pushing plate 92 is in a retracted state, the first pushing plate 92 avoids the target dispensing workpiece in the height direction.

[0078] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 1 and 4, the dispensing machine 100 also includes a second blocking module 110, which is arranged near the entrance end of the dispensing station 10a. The second blocking module 110 has a second blocking state and a second avoidance state. In the second blocking state, the second blocking module 110 blocks the target dispensing object from entering the dispensing station 10a; in the second avoidance state, the second blocking module 110 avoids the target dispensing object to allow the target dispensing object to enter the dispensing station 10a.

[0079] Specifically, when the target object to be glued in the glue dispensing station 10a is being glued, the second blocking module 110 switches to the second blocking state to prevent the next target object from entering the glue dispensing station 10a; when the target object to be glued in the glue dispensing station 10a is glued and leaves the glue dispensing station 10a, the second blocking module 110 switches to the second avoidance state, allowing the next target object to enter the glue dispensing station 10a for glue dispensing.

[0080] In some specific embodiments, referring to FIG4 , the second material blocking module 110 includes a fourth lifting drive assembly 1101 and a second material blocking plate 1102; the fourth lifting drive assembly 1101 is arranged below the drum 12, and the power output end of the fourth lifting drive assembly 1101 is connected to the second material blocking plate 1102, and the fourth lifting drive assembly 1101 drives the second material blocking plate 1102 to perform lifting and lowering movements in the interval space of the drum 12, so that the second material blocking plate 1102 switches to the second material blocking state or the second avoidance state.

[0081] In some specific embodiments, referring to Figures 1 and 4, the dispensing machine 100 further includes a fifth sensor 120, which is disposed adjacent to the entrance of the dispensing station 10a. The fifth sensor 120 is configured to sense whether the next target dispensing object is near the dispensing station 10a. Specifically, when the fifth sensor 120 detects that the next target dispensing object has arrived near the dispensing station 10a, the second blocking module 110 switches to the second blocking state to block the next target dispensing object.

[0082] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 1 and 5, the dispensing machine 100 also includes a clamping module 130, and the clamping module 130 includes a second transverse driving component 1301 and a clamping component 1302. The clamping components 1302 are divided into two groups, and the two groups of clamping components 1302 are respectively located on opposite sides of the dispensing station 10a. The power output end of the second transverse driving component 1301 is connected to the clamping component 1302, and the second transverse driving component 1301 drives the two clamping components 1302 to move closer to each other to clamp the target dispensing object or drives the two clamping components 1302 to move away from each other to release the clamping of the target dispensing object.

[0083] Among them, it is defined that the opposite sides of the dispensing station 10a are arranged along the X direction, so the two clamping components 1302 are arranged on the opposite sides of the dispensing station 10a along the X direction; specifically, after the first blocking module 70 restricts the target dispensing object on the dispensing station 10a, the second transverse driving component 1301 drives the two clamping components 1302 to move closer to each other, so that the two clamping components 1302 clamp the target dispensing object to achieve the positioning of the target dispensing object in the X direction; after the target dispensing object is completed, the second transverse driving component 1301 drives the two clamping components 1302 to move away from each other to release the clamping of the target dispensing object, so that the target dispensing object can be transported out of the dispensing station 10a under the transportation of the conveying module 10.

[0084] In some specific embodiments, when the second transverse drive component 1301 drives the two clamping components 1302 to clamp the target dispensing object, the two clamping components 1302 clamp the target dispensing workpiece to achieve the positioning of the target dispensing workpiece in the X direction, and cooperate with the pushing module 90 to position the target dispensing workpiece in the Y direction, thereby achieving the positioning of the target dispensing workpiece on the two-dimensional plane.

[0085] In some specific embodiments, referring to FIG5 , the clamping assembly 1302 includes a clamping frame 13021, a clamping member 13022, and an elastic member 13023. There are multiple clamping members 13022, which are movably arranged on the clamping frame 13021. An elastic member 13023 is provided between each clamping member 13022 and the clamping frame 13021. Specifically, when the two clamping assemblies 1302 clamp the target dispensing workpiece, the elastic member 13023 can buffer the clamping force of the clamping member 13022, thereby preventing the clamping member 13022 from damaging the target dispensing workpiece, while ensuring that the clamping force enables the clamping member 13022 to stably clamp the target dispensing workpiece.

[0086] In some specific embodiments, referring to FIG. 5 , both ends of each clamping assembly 1302 are provided with second transverse drive assemblies 1301 . Therefore, four groups of second transverse drive assemblies 1301 are provided, and both ends of each clamping assembly 1302 can be driven.

[0087] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 5, the clamping module 130 also includes two beams 1303, which are arranged along the conveying direction of the conveying module 10, and each beam 1303 is arranged across the conveying module 10, and each beam 1303 is provided with a second transverse drive assembly 1301 at both ends of each beam 1303, that is, the two ends of one clamping assembly 1302 are connected to the two second transverse drive assemblies 1301 arranged on the first ends of the two beams 1303, and the two ends of the other clamping assembly 1302 are connected to the two second transverse drive assemblies 1301 arranged on the second ends of the two beams 1303.

[0088] In some specific embodiments, referring to FIG. 5 , the pushing module 90 is disposed on one of the beams 1303 .

[0090] Specifically, when the second transverse drive component 1301 drives the two clamping components 1302 to clamp the target glue object, the fifth lifting drive component 1304 drives the two clamping components 1302 to clamp the target glue object and rise a predetermined distance to improve the levelness of the target glue object; after the dispensing of the target glue object is completed, the fifth lifting drive component 1304 drives the two clamping components 1302 and the target glue object clamped by them to descend to be placed on the conveying module 10, and the second transverse drive component 1301 drives the two clamping components 1302 to release the clamping, so that the target glue object is moved out of the dispensing station 10a.
