The terminology used in the description of the invention herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. As used herein, the term "and/or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2, a foot pad mounting apparatus 100 for mounting a foot pad 200 is provided according to an embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, four foot pads 200 are adhered to a piece of release paper 201 side by side. Each piece of release paper 201 is pasted with a plurality of groups of foot pads 200. It is understood that in other embodiments, the number of footpads 200 per set may be set as desired.

Referring to fig. 1, the foot pad mounting apparatus 100 includes a carrying mechanism 10, a robot 20, and a pick-and-place mechanism 30. The bearing mechanism 10 is used for containing release paper 201 and the foot pad 200 arranged on the release paper. The driving end of the manipulator 20 is connected with the material taking and placing mechanism 30 to drive the material taking and placing mechanism 30 to move. The pick-and-place mechanism 30 is moved by the robot 20 to the carrying mechanism to pick up the foot pad 200 and to the workpiece (not shown) to release the foot pad 200 for installation.

Referring to fig. 2, the supporting mechanism 10 includes a supporting plate 11 for supporting and positioning a release paper 201 and a plurality of foot pads 200 disposed thereon.

In this embodiment, the support mechanism 10 further includes a table 12. The working table 12 is used for accommodating the supporting plate 11, a plurality of release papers 201 to be used and a plurality of foot pads 200 arranged on the supporting plate.

The support plate 11 is a substantially rectangular plate. The support plate 11 includes a top surface 112 facing away from the table 12. A plurality of support posts 114 are provided on the top surface 112. The release paper 201 is supported by the supporting posts 114 to be higher than the top surface 112. The foot pad 200 is located on a side of the release paper 201 away from the support plate 11. In this embodiment, every four support columns 114 are spaced apart and matched to a set of foot pads 200, i.e., each support column 114 supports a corresponding one of the foot pads 200. The diameter of each support post 114 is smaller than the diameter of the footpad 200. The outer portion of the footpad 200 is suspended above the top surface 112.

In this embodiment, each release paper 201 is further provided with a plurality of positioning holes 2012 at intervals. A plurality of positioning rods 116 are correspondingly arranged on the supporting plate 11. Each of the positioning rods 116 passes through a corresponding one of the positioning holes 2012 to position the release paper 201. It is understood that in other embodiments, the positioning rods 116 may be eliminated, so long as each support post 114 is aligned to support a corresponding foot pad 200.

Referring to fig. 3 and 4, the robot 20 is located at one side of the table 12. The driving end of the manipulator 20 is connected with a material taking and placing mechanism 30. The robot 20 can drive the material taking and placing mechanism 30 to move between the support plate 11 and the workpiece. The robot 20 may be of an industry-wide design and will not be described in further detail herein.

The material taking and placing mechanism 30 comprises a block 31, an absorbing piece 32 and a driving device 35. The block 31 is attached to the drive end of the robot 20. The absorption member 32 is disposed in the block body 31 for absorbing the foot pad 200. The driving means 35 is connected to the suction member 32 to drive it to extend or retract into the block 31. In this embodiment, the number of the adsorption members 32 is four, so as to adsorb a group of the foot pads 200 at the same time. The number of drives 35 is correspondingly four. Each driving device correspondingly drives one adsorption piece 32, so that when the foot pad 200 is installed on a workpiece, the adsorption piece 32 and the foot pad 200 can be independently extended for installation. It is understood that in other embodiments, the number of absorbent members 32 is at least one.

Referring to fig. 5, the block 31 is substantially a rectangular parallelepiped. The block 31 includes an abutting surface 311. The abutting surface 311 is provided with four mounting holes 312 for correspondingly mounting the four suction members 32. The diameter of each mounting hole 312 is the same as the diameter of the foot pad 200. The robot 20 drives the abutting surface 311 to move towards the supporting plate 11, each mounting hole 312 is aligned with the corresponding foot pad 200, and the abutting surface 311 presses the release paper 201 down onto the top surface 112. The portion of the footpad 200 located outside the supporting post 114 is separated from the release paper 201. The adsorption member 32 is driven by the driving device 35 to adhere to the foot pad 200 and adsorb. The driving device 35 is also used for pushing out the adsorption piece 32 of the adsorption foot pad 200 to be abutted to the workpiece for installation.

Referring to fig. 4, in the present embodiment, the driving device 35 includes a piston 33 and an elastic element 34. The piston 33 is slidably disposed in the mounting hole 312. The piston 33 is substantially T-shaped in cross-section. The piston 33 includes a rod 332 and a closed end 334. The rod 332 is located on a side facing the holding surface 311. The absorbent member 32 is disposed at an end of the rod 332 opposite the closed end 334. The closed end 334 abuts the wall of the mounting hole 312 and blocks the mounting hole 312. An external air supply device is connected to an end of each mounting hole 312 away from the abutting surface 311 to supply air to push the piston 33 to move toward the abutting surface 311.

The hole wall of the mounting hole 312 is provided with an annular protrusion 3121. The projection 3121 is located approximately in the middle of the mounting hole 312. The elastic member 34 is sleeved on the rod body 332. The two ends of the elastic element 34 elastically support the protruding portion 3121 and the closed end 334 respectively. After the gas is stopped flowing into the mounting hole 312, the elastic member 34 elastically recovers to move the piston 33 away from the abutting surface 311.

It is understood that in other embodiments, the elastic member 34 can be eliminated without affecting the absorption member 32 to absorb and release the mounting mat 200.

It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, the drive means 35 may also be a cylinder, a motor, etc.

In use, the robot 20 moves the block 31 over the support plate 11. Then, the robot drives the abutting surface 311 to move towards the supporting plate 11, the mounting hole 312 is aligned with the foot pad 200, and the abutting surface 311 presses the release paper 201 down onto the top surface 112. The portion of the footpad 200 located outside the supporting post 114 is separated from the release paper 201. The mounting hole 312 is filled with gas to push the piston 33 to move, so that the adsorbing member 32 abuts against the foot pad 200. The adsorption member 32 adsorbs the footpad 200. The mounting hole 312 stops introducing air, the elastic member 34 elastically recovers to enable the piston 33 to move in the direction away from the abutting surface 311, and the foot pad 200 is peeled from the release paper 201 to finish taking the material. The robot 20 moves the block 31 above the workpiece and causes the abutting surface 311 to abut against the workpiece. The mounting hole 312 is filled with gas to push the piston 33 to move so that the foot pad 200 is attached to the workpiece. The adsorption member 32 releases the foot pad 200 to complete the installation of the foot pad 200.

The mat mounting apparatus 100 of the present invention supports the release paper 201 and the mat 200 by the supporting pillar 114, so that the release paper 201 is suspended above the top surface 112. The abutting surface 311 abuts against the release paper 201 to press the release paper downwards so as to be partially peeled off from the foot pad 200. When the suction member 32 sucks, the separation force between the foot pad 200 and the release paper 201 is small, and the mounting accuracy is not easily affected by deformation or the like.

In addition, other modifications within the spirit of the invention may occur to those skilled in the art, and such modifications are, of course, included within the scope of the invention as claimed.
