It is to be noted that the embodiments in the application and the characteristics in the embodiments can be combined under the condition of no conflicts. The present disclosure is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and the embodiments in detail.

In the present disclosure and the embodiments of the present disclosure, materials to be fed <NUM> are the materials which include an electronic chip <NUM>, and a part to be picked up is the electronic chip <NUM>. The electronic chip <NUM> is a RFID tire chip. The part laminated by the laminating equipment is the RFID tire tag.

As shown in <FIG>, some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a laminating equipment for a RFID tire tag. The laminating equipment includes: a frame <NUM>, a feeding mechanism <NUM>, which is provided on the frame <NUM>, and a laminating mechanism <NUM>, which is provided on the frame <NUM>. The laminating mechanism <NUM> is configured to press rubber and the electronic chip <NUM> of the materials to be fed <NUM> from the feeding mechanism <NUM>.

As shown in <FIG> and <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment, the feeding mechanism <NUM> includes a support frame <NUM>, a coiling portion <NUM> which is provided on the support frame <NUM>, and a driving wheel <NUM> which is rotationally provided on the support frame <NUM>. One end of the material to be fed <NUM> is provided on the coiling portion <NUM>, and the other end cooperates with the driving wheel <NUM>, so as to move the material to be fed <NUM> under a driving of the driving wheel <NUM>.

By adopting the embodiment of the present disclosure, in which the feeding mechanism <NUM> feeds automatically, and the laminating mechanism <NUM> encapsulates the electronic chip <NUM>, mechanized production may be realized, and product consistency is good; and moreover, automated production may be realized, and production efficiency is high.

In an exemplary embodiment, because one end of the material to be fed <NUM> is provided on the coiling portion <NUM>, and the other end cooperates with the driving wheel <NUM>, a rotation of the driving wheel <NUM> drives the material to be fed <NUM> to move, and a movement of the material to be fed <NUM> drives the coiling portion <NUM> to rotate; in this way, automatic uncoiling of the coiling portion <NUM> is realized, and automatic feeding is completed. Therefore, automatic feeding after manually feeding is ensured, and efficiency is improved; and moreover, there is no manmade waste, and a feeding process is smooth.

<FIG> is a schematic diagram after the material to be fed <NUM> is uncoiled. The materials to be fed <NUM> include a material belt <NUM>, the electronic chip <NUM> and a protection film provided corresponding to the material belt <NUM>. The plurality of electronic chips <NUM> are provided at intervals along a length direction of the material belt <NUM>. As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the feeding mechanism <NUM> may further include a film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM>. The film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM> is rotationally provided on the support frame <NUM>. The electronic chip <NUM> is provided between the material belt <NUM> and the protection film. One end of the protection film is provided on the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM>. The driving wheel <NUM> is meshed with the material belt <NUM>.

Through the above setting, the rotation of the driving wheel <NUM> drives the material to be fed <NUM> to move, and the movement of the material to be fed <NUM> drives the coiling portion <NUM> to rotate. Because one end of the protection film is provided on the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM>, while the material to be fed <NUM> moves to realize automatic feeding, with the rotation of the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM>, the protection film detaches from the electronic chip <NUM> on the material belt <NUM>, and is winded on the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM>; then, a film stripping process is completed. The feeding mechanism <NUM> implements the film stripping process of the material to be fed <NUM> while realizing the automatic feeding. The feeding process and the film stripping process are carried out simultaneously without need of manual work, thereby improving efficiency. Moreover, all of the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM>, the driving wheel <NUM> and coiling portion <NUM> are provided on the support frame <NUM>, so the structure of the equipment is compact, and the volume is small.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, there are a plurality of dentate bulges <NUM> provided on a peripheral surface of the driving wheel <NUM>, and the plurality of dentate bulges <NUM> are uniformly provided around a circumferential direction of the driving wheel <NUM> at an interval. The material belt <NUM> is provided with a plurality of through holes, the plurality of through holes are matched with the dentate bulges <NUM>.

Through the above setting, when rotating, the driving wheel <NUM> drives the material belt <NUM>, which cooperates with the dentate bulges <NUM> through the through holes, to move forward, thereby conveying the material belt. Through meshed setting between each of the dentate bulges <NUM> and a corresponding each of the through holes, a rotary motion of the driving wheel <NUM> is converted into a linear motion of the material belt <NUM> and the electronic chip <NUM>. Therefore, a transmission power is large, a conveying process is smooth, and the automation of a feeding process is realized.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the feeding mechanism may further include a limiting part <NUM>. The limiting part <NUM> is connected with the support frame <NUM>, and contacts the protection film.

Through the above setting, the limiting part <NUM> contacts the protection film and supports it, thereby preventing the stripped protection film from adhering to the material to be fed <NUM> whose film is not stripped. Meanwhile, after the limiting part <NUM> is provided, when the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM> winds the stripped protection film, indirect contact is formed between the stripped protection film and the material to be fed <NUM>, thereby preventing an acting force in the process that the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM> winds the protection film from directly acting on the material to be fed <NUM>. Direct acting of the acting force will cause the material to be fed <NUM> to wave or shake, which impacts an automatic feeding process of the feeding mechanism <NUM>.

As shown in <FIG> and <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the feeding mechanism may further include a driving portion <NUM> and a gearing portion. The driving portion <NUM> is in driving connection with the driving wheel <NUM>. The gearing portion is connected with the driving wheel <NUM> and the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM> respectively, so that the driving wheel <NUM> and the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM> rotate synchronously.

Through the above setting, in the embodiment, the driving portion <NUM> drives the driving wheel <NUM> and the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM> to rotate synchronously, which realizes synchronous implementation of the automatic feeding process and the automatic film stripping process.

In an exemplary embodiment, the driving portion <NUM> is one of a servo motor and a stepping motor.

As shown in <FIG> and <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the gearing portion is a synchronous belt <NUM>. The rotation direction of the driving wheel <NUM> is as same as the rotation direction of the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM>.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the rotation direction of the driving wheel <NUM> is as same as the rotation direction of the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM>, that is, if the driving wheel <NUM> and the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM> are rotated along the anticlockwise direction in <FIG>, the feeding process and the film stripping process are implemented simultaneously. Meanwhile, taking the synchronous belt <NUM> as the gearing portion may absorb a shock, thereby ensuring a running process to be smooth.

Of course, in some alternative embodiments not described in the present disclosure, the rotation direction of the driving wheel <NUM> and the rotation direction of the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM> may also be set to be opposite, which may also realize the synchronous implementation of the feeding process and the film stripping process.

Moreover, the gearing portions of other manners may also be provided. All embodiments which may realize synchronous rotation of the driving wheel <NUM> and the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM> should fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the feeding mechanism may further include a support platform <NUM> which is connected with the support frame <NUM>. The supporting platform <NUM> is at one side, facing the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM>, of the driving wheel <NUM>.

Through the above setting, the supporting platform <NUM> supports the material to be fed <NUM> which is conveyed through the rotation of the driving wheel <NUM>, thereby ensuring the material belt <NUM> to keep stable and smooth in the feeding process, and preventing shaking or elastic deformation of the material belt <NUM> from impacting the pickup of the chip.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the feeding mechanism may further include, along a feeding direction of the material to be fed <NUM>, a position sensor <NUM> which is provided at an upper part of the supporting platform <NUM>.

Through the above setting, the position sensor <NUM> is configured to detect whether there is the electronic chip <NUM> of the material to be fed <NUM> on the supporting platform <NUM>. When there is no the electronic chip <NUM> on the material to be fed <NUM>, the driving wheel <NUM> rotates to drive the material to be fed <NUM> to move, thereby continuing the feeding process.

In the present embodiment, both the driving wheel <NUM> and the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM> rotate intermittently, that is, when the electronic chip <NUM> reaches the supporting platform <NUM>, the driving wheel <NUM> stops rotating, and after all the electronic chips <NUM> on the supporting platform <NUM> are taken away by a pick-up portion of manipulator or manually, the driving wheel <NUM> continues to rotate, the material belt <NUM> where the electronic chip <NUM> is taken away moves downward bypassing the driving wheel <NUM>, and the material to be fed <NUM> winded on the coiling portion <NUM> continues to move, under the driving of the driving wheel <NUM>, towards the supporting platform <NUM> to wait the next pick-up action.

Of course, the driving wheel <NUM> and the film-stripping rotation shaft <NUM> may also be providing to rotate continuously according to actual needs. If so, the pick-up mechanism of manipulator for picking up the electronic chip <NUM> is required to cooperate with the feeding mechanism <NUM>, thereby realizing the synchronous implementation of a process of automatically picking up the electronic chip <NUM>, the film stripping process and a process of conveying the electronic chip <NUM>.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the laminating mechanism may further include: a waste tank, which is provided on the frame <NUM>. The waste tank is located below the feeding mechanism <NUM>. The feeding mechanism may further include a guiding portion <NUM> which is connected with the support frame <NUM>. The guiding portion <NUM> is provided below the driving wheel <NUM>, and is configured to guide the material belt <NUM> of the material to be fed <NUM> to enter into the waste tank.

Through the above setting, after the film stripping process and the feeding process of the material to be fed <NUM> are completed (that is, the electronic chip <NUM> is picked up), the material belt <NUM> continues moving downward under the driving of the driving wheel <NUM>, and is guided by the guiding portion <NUM> to enter into the waste tank, thereby preventing waste from falling to pollute a working environment.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the support frame <NUM> includes a first vertical plate and a second vertical plate which is connected with the first vertical plate. Both the coiling portion <NUM> and the driving wheel <NUM> are provided on the first vertical plate. The guiding portion <NUM> is a guiding plate. The guiding plate and the second vertical plate are provided at an interval.

Through the above setting, the parts of the feeding mechanism are distributed on the support frame <NUM> reasonably; the guiding portion <NUM> and the second vertical plate are provided at an interval to jointly guide the material belt <NUM> to enter into the waste tank after the feeding process is completed, thereby ensuring the completion of the feeding process. Applying the feeding mechanism for the RFID tire tag of the present embodiment to feed the electronic tag implements the automatic feeding process after manually feeding and mechanizes automatic discharging without need of manual intervention and without requirements on working personnel, thereby avoiding manmade wastes and poor production. By implementing the automatic feeding of the RFID tire tag, a chip supplying function of an automatic packaging line for the RFID tire tag is realized, which fills up the technical gap of automated chip feeding in an early stage of embedding an RFID chip in the rubber industry.

As shown in the accompanying drawings from <FIG>, the exemplary embodiment provides a pick-up mechanism of manipulator. The pick-up mechanism of manipulator includes a supporting seat <NUM> and a pick-up portion <NUM>. The pick-up portion <NUM> is provided being movable vertically relative to the supporting seat <NUM>. The pick-up portion <NUM> includes a first cylinder <NUM> and a pick-up head <NUM> which is connected with the first cylinder <NUM>. The pick-up head <NUM> is provided with a passage <NUM> for placing a magnetic member <NUM>. The first cylinder <NUM> is configured to drive the magnetic member <NUM> to move in the passage <NUM>. The magnetic member <NUM> is provided with a first position for absorbing a part to be picked up and a second position for loosening the part to be picked up.

Through the above setting, the pick-up portion <NUM> is movable vertically relative to the supporting seat <NUM>, which ensures that the pick-up portion <NUM> may get close to the part to be picked up, thereby facilitating the implementation of a pick-up operation. When the magnetic member <NUM> is at the first position, a distance between the magnetic member <NUM> and the part to be picked up is shortest, and the magnetic member <NUM> may absorb the part to be picked up. When the magnetic member <NUM> is at the second position, a distance between the magnetic member <NUM> and the part to be picked up is beyond a pick-up distance of the magnetic member <NUM>, and the magnetic member <NUM> loosens the part to be picked up. The pick-up mechanism of manipulator picks up the part to be picked up based on the principle of magnetism, so the pick-up way is reliable, and the operation is easy to be implemented. Meanwhile, the magnetic member <NUM> in the pick-up head <NUM> is driven using the cylinder, so the structure is simple, and the operation is smooth. In the solution, by using the magnetic member <NUM> to pick up and loosen the part to be picked up, a problem in the related art of low efficiency caused by manually picking and placing the part to be picked up is prevented.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, there is an installation through hole provided on the pick-up head <NUM>. The installation through hole forms the passage <NUM>. The first cylinder <NUM> is provided at the installation through hole, and one end of a piston rod of the first cylinder <NUM> extends into the installation through hole and cooperates with the magnetic member <NUM>, so as to drive the magnetic member <NUM> to switch between the first position and the second position.

Through the above setting, one end of the piston rod of the first cylinder <NUM> extends into the installation through hole to directly drive the magnetic member <NUM>, thereby ensuring that the magnetic member <NUM> may switch between the first position and the second position smoothly. Meanwhile, position switching of the magnetic member <NUM> in the passage <NUM> realizes a function of picking up and loosening the part to be picked up. The magnetic member <NUM> does not contact the part to be picked up directly, thereby preventing a manmade secondary pollution, ensuring the cleanliness of the part to be picked up, and ensuring that the performance of the part to be picked up will not be damaged.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, one end, facing the magnetic member <NUM>, of the piston rod is provided with an absorbing portion which may absorb the magnetic member <NUM>. The distance between the absorbing portion and the magnetic member <NUM> is greater than or equal to the pick-up distance of the magnetic member <NUM>.

Through the above setting, when it is needed to absorb the part to be picked up, because the distance between the absorbing portion and the magnetic member <NUM> is greater than and equal to the pick-up distance of the magnetic member <NUM>, the extension of the piston rod may enable the magnetic member <NUM> to reach a magnetic attraction distance range of absorbing the part to be picked up, thereby absorbing the part to be picked up successfully. When it is needed to loosen the part to be picked up, under an absorbing action of the piston rod, the magnetic member <NUM> gets away from the part to be picked up until it leaves the magnetic attraction distance range of the magnetic member <NUM> and the part to be picked up, thereby realizing the separation of the magnetic member <NUM> and the part to be picked up.

In an exemplary embodiment, the absorbing portion is a magnet which may generate an action of magnetic force with the magnetic member <NUM>.

Of course, in the alternative embodiments of the present disclosure, the piston rod may also be connected with the magnetic member <NUM>. The first cylinder <NUM> may further include a cylinder body. The piston rod extends out and retracts relative to the cylinder body, so as to enable the magnetic member <NUM> to switch between the first position and the second position.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the pick-up portion <NUM> includes two first cylinders <NUM> and two pick-up heads <NUM> provided corresponding to the two first cylinders <NUM>. The magnetic member <NUM> is provided in each of the pick-up heads <NUM>.

Through the above setting, the two first cylinders <NUM> drive the magnetic members <NUM> in the pick-up heads <NUM> respectively and correspondingly. The two magnetic members absorb from two ends of the same part to be picked up at the same time, which provides a greater magnetic attraction force, thereby ensuring that the part to be picked up may be picked up smoothly, and preventing the part to be picked up from falling due to local stress on it.

In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, a needle-type cylinder is selected as the first cylinder <NUM>. The whole pick-up portion <NUM> has a small volume and a compact structure.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the pick-up mechanism of manipulator may further include a rotating part <NUM> which is connected with the supporting seat <NUM>, and a driving motor <NUM>. The driving motor <NUM> is connected with the rotating part <NUM> to drive the rotating part <NUM> to rotate.

Through the above setting, the supporting seat <NUM> is connected with the rotating part <NUM>, thereby ensuring, through rotation, the pick-up head <NUM> to reach a position of picking up the part to be picked up. The driving motor <NUM> drives the rotating part <NUM>, which makes the pick-up mechanism of manipulator simple in structure and convenient in operation.

In an exemplary embodiment, the driving motor <NUM> is one of the servo motor and the stepping motor.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the pick-up mechanism of manipulator may further include a mounting plate <NUM>. The driving motor <NUM> is provided on the mounting plate <NUM>.

Through the above setting, the driving motor <NUM> is provided on the mounting plate <NUM>, thereby ensuring the driving motor <NUM> to run smoothly, and reducing the vibration.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the rotating part <NUM> is a rotating arm. The pick-up mechanism of manipulator includes a plurality of pick-up portions <NUM>. The plurality of pick-up portions <NUM> are provided on the rotating part <NUM> at an interval.

In an exemplary embodiment, the pick-up mechanism of manipulator includes two pick-up portions <NUM>. The two pick-up portions <NUM> are provided on two ends of the rotating part <NUM> respectively and correspondingly. When the pick-up mechanism of manipulator performs a pick-up operation, the two pick-up portions <NUM> pick up the part to be picked up and loosen the part to be picked up respectively, thereby implementing synchronous operation of double work positions, and improving the production efficiency.

Furthermore, by using the pick-up mechanism of manipulator, the electronic chip may be picked up from a specified position and placed to another specified position after being rotated.

Of course, in the alternative embodiments not described in the present disclosure, the rotating part <NUM> may also be a rotating disk. The plurality of pick-up portions <NUM> are provided on the rotating part <NUM> at an interval along a circumferential direction. In this way, the pick-up mechanism of manipulator may operate at multiple work positions according to actual needs, thereby improving efficiency.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the pick-up mechanism of manipulator may further include a reducer <NUM>. One end of the reducer <NUM> is connected with the driving motor <NUM>, and the other end is connected with the rotating part <NUM>.

Through the above setting, the setting of the reducer <NUM> ensures the rotating part <NUM> to run smoothly, thereby ensuring that the pick-up operation of the pick-up mechanism of manipulator is implemented smoothly.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the pick-up mechanism of manipulator may further include a second cylinder <NUM>. The second cylinder <NUM> is provided on the supporting seat <NUM>. Under the action of the second cylinder <NUM>, the pick-up portion <NUM> moves vertically relative to the supporting seat <NUM>.

Through the above setting, the second cylinder <NUM> enables the pick-up portion <NUM> to move vertically relative to the supporting seat <NUM>, which ensures that the pick-up portion <NUM> may get close to the part to be picked up vertically, so the operation is simple and it is convenient to pick.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the magnetic member <NUM> is a Neodymium magnet.

Particularly, the Neodymium magnet has a stable property. Using the Neodymium magnet as the magnetic member <NUM> generates a good absorption force (namely the magnetic attraction force) between the magnetic member <NUM> and the part to be picked up, thereby ensuring the stable pick-up operation of the pick-up mechanism of manipulator. Of course, in the alternative embodiments not described in the present disclosure, the magnetic member <NUM> may also be other magnetic members.

Using the pick-up mechanism of manipulator of the present embodiment to pick up the electronic chip <NUM> realizes a chip placing function before an automatic encapsulation of the RFID tire chip, which fills up the technical gap of automated chip feeding in an early stage of embedding an RFID chip in the rubber industry. The solution realizes automated pick-up, and prevents the manmade secondary pollution caused by picking up the chip manually, and twisting and bumping among the chips. Moreover, using the solution, the production efficiency is high, there is no technical requirement on the personnel, no manmade waste and poor production is generated, and a manual process may be replaced completely.

As shown in <FIG>, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the laminating mechanism <NUM> includes a laminating platform <NUM> and a pressing part provided on the laminating platform <NUM>. The pressing part is provided being movable relative to the laminating platform <NUM>.

In an exemplary embodiment, the pressing part is a pressing roller <NUM>. An encapsulation way of the electronic chip <NUM> includes that: after the electronic chip <NUM> is placed on a single layer of rubber, a layer of rubber is covered on an exposed side of the electronic chip <NUM>, and finally, encapsulation is completed through the pressing roller <NUM> by virtue of the adhesive property of rubber. Moreover, there is a coder and an accessory of the coder provided on the laminating platform <NUM>. A moving-forward distance of the material belt is recorded through the coder, so as to ensure the working continuity of the laminating mechanism.

Of course, in the alternative embodiments, a vertically pressing way may also be used to encapsulate the electronic chip <NUM> and the rubber together.

In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the laminating equipment may further include a winding part <NUM>. Using the winding part <NUM> may wind the encapsulated electronic chip <NUM>, and then it is convenient to carry and store the electronic chip.

In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the laminating equipment may further include a storage box <NUM> provided on the frame <NUM>, and then it is convenient to store maintaining tools in the storage box, thereby being convenient to get the tools.

In the present embodiment, a function of the laminating equipment is placing the electronic chip <NUM> at the specified position of the rubber, and pressing them to obtain a semi-finished product. The laminating equipment is mainly composed of the feeding mechanism <NUM>, the pick-up mechanism of manipulator, the laminating mechanism <NUM> and the winding part <NUM>. Through a servo (stepping) motor control technology in combination with the feeding mechanism, the automatic feeding of the rubber and the electronic chip <NUM> is realized. By the pick-up mechanism of manipulator, the electronic chip <NUM> is placed at the specified position. By a pneumatic pressing roller <NUM>, the rubber and the electronic chip <NUM> are pressed.

The laminating equipment of some embodiments of the present disclosure has the following advantages: the mechanized production may be realized, and the product consistency is good; the automated production may be realized, and the production efficiency is high; after manual feeding, the equipment may automatically run according to preset parameters without need of manual intervention and without requirements on the personnel, and moreover, there is no manmade waste and poor production.

It can be seen from the above description the above embodiments of the present disclosure achieve the following technical effects: the feeding mechanism of the RFID tire tag includes the coiling portion, the film-stripping rotation shaft and the driving wheel. The driving portion drives the driving wheel and the film-stripping rotation shaft to rotate simultaneously, the rotation of the driving wheel drives the material to be fed to move, and the movement of the material to be fed drives the coiling portion to rotate; in this way, the automatic feeding is completed. Meanwhile, the rotation of the film-stripping rotation shaft strips the protection film of the material to be fed and winds it on the film-stripping rotation shaft, which implements the film stripping process of the material to be fed and winds the stripped protection film to keep well, and conducts the automatic feeding and automatic film stripping synchronously. The pick-up mechanism of manipulator includes the supporting seat, the pick-up portion and the rotating arm. The driving motor drives the rotating arm to rotate, so as to make the pick-up portion above the part to be picked up. The second cylinder drives the pick-up portion to move vertically relative to the supporting seat and get close to the part to be picked up. The two first cylinders drive the magnetic members in the two pick-up heads respectively and correspondingly. The two magnetic members absorb simultaneously from the two ends of the same part to be picked up. Through the above pick-up process, the process of picking up the part to be picked up is implemented. The whole pick-up process is simple and smooth, and the operation is convenient; moreover, the secondary pollution of the chip caused by manual pick-up, wastes and poor production are prevented, the automated pick-up of the chip is realized, and the production efficiency is improved.
