Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. It will be apparent that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments, which are obtained by a person skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of the invention, fall within the scope of protection of the invention.

The terms "first," "second," and the like, as used herein, do not denote any order, quantity, or importance, but rather are used to distinguish one element from another. Likewise, the terms "a" or "an" and the like do not denote a limitation of quantity, but rather denote the presence of at least one. The terms "connected" or "connected," and the like, are not limited to physical or mechanical connections, but may include electrical connections, whether direct or indirect. "upper", "lower", "left", "right", etc. are used merely to indicate a relative positional relationship, which changes accordingly when the absolute position of the object to be described changes.
Fig. 1 shows an application scenario of a nozzle 1. As shown in fig. 1, (a) shows a scene of the nozzle 1 during a specific use, i.e., a spraying device (not shown in the figure) sprays the resin in a molten state onto the substrate 2 through the nozzle 1. (b) A scene diagram of the cleaning of the nozzle 1 is shown, i.e. the nozzle 1 is cleaned by means of a cleaning agent 1 after a period of use of the nozzle 1. As shown in fig. (b), droplets 6 of the cleaning agent may remain at the discharge port of the nozzle 1. (c) A scene graph is shown with the nozzle returned to the station after cleaning. As can be seen from fig. (c), when the cleaned nozzle 1 is returned to the station to be ready for further spraying of the resin, if droplets remain at its ejection port, contamination will be caused to the substrate 2.
In view of this, the present invention proposes a nozzle cleaning device with a detecting portion 4 and a cleaning portion 5 to ensure that droplets 6 of cleaning agent do not remain at the ejection port of the nozzle 1 after the end of cleaning, thereby avoiding contamination of the substrate 2 due to the cleaning agent.
A nozzle cleaning apparatus according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 2, the nozzle cleaning apparatus of the present invention includes a nozzle cleaning cartridge 3, a detecting section 4, and a cleaning section 5. The nozzle cleaning box 3 is used for containing cleaning agent; a detecting section 4 provided on the nozzle cleaning cartridge 3 for detecting whether or not there are liquid droplets 6 on the nozzle 1; a cleaning portion 5 is provided at the upper end of the nozzle cleaning cartridge 3 for cleaning the droplets 6 on the nozzle 1.
According to the nozzle cleaning device provided by the embodiment of the invention, after the nozzle 1 is cleaned, the detection part 4 detects whether the liquid drops 6 of the cleaning agent remain on the nozzle 1, and the cleaning part 5 is used for cleaning when the liquid drops 6 remain, so that the cleaning of the resin on the nozzle 1 is ensured, and meanwhile, the cleaning agent cannot remain on the nozzle 1, and the condition that the cleaning agent drops onto the substrate 2 is effectively avoided.
In an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the detecting unit 4 includes an opposite laser sensor, and a transmitting end 7 and a receiving end 8 of the opposite laser sensor are disposed at an upper end of the nozzle cleaning cartridge 3 and correspond to a standby phase of the nozzle 1. As shown in fig. 3-4, the emitting end 7 of the correlation laser sensor emits laser light to the receiving end 8, if the receiving end 8 receives the laser light, it indicates that there is no obstruction on the propagation path of the laser light, and if the laser light is not received, it indicates that there is an obstruction (i.e., the droplet 6). Moving the cleaned nozzle 1 to a standby position, arranging a transmitting end 7 and a receiving end 8 of an opposite laser sensor at the upper end of the nozzle cleaning box 3 and slightly below the standby position, so that the lower end of the nozzle 1 is properly spaced from a laser propagation path (so that the liquid drops 6 are positioned on the laser propagation path), and when the residual liquid drops 6 do not exist at the lower end of the nozzle 1, as shown in fig. 4, the laser propagation is not affected, and the receiving end 8 receives normally; as shown in fig. 3, when there is a residual droplet 6 at the lower end of the nozzle 1, the laser propagation path is blocked by the droplet 6, and the receiving end 8 does not receive the laser light. Therefore, when the receiving end 8 does not receive the laser light, it is determined that the nozzle 1 has the residual liquid droplets 6. In this case, the droplet 6 can be removed by the removing portion 5.
According to another embodiment, as shown in fig. 5, the detecting part 4 of the nozzle cleaning device of the present invention may further be: the detection section 4 includes a camera 9 for taking an image of the nozzle 1 and image recognition means (not shown in the figure) for recognizing the image to determine whether or not there are liquid droplets 6 on the nozzle 1. The camera 9 may send the photographed picture to an image recognition device by means of bluetooth, a local area network, a wired network, a wireless network, or the like, and the image recognition device recognizes by an image recognition technology after receiving the picture to determine whether a droplet remains at the nozzle opening of the nozzle 1. For example, the image recognition training can be performed by a plurality of pictures of the nozzles 1 with the liquid drops 6 and pictures of the nozzles 1 without the liquid drops 6, and after the training is completed, whether the liquid drops 6 exist or not can be judged according to the pictures actually shot. In addition, a picture in which the droplet 6 is not left may be used as a reference picture, and a picture taken in real time may be compared with the reference picture, and when there is a significant difference, it may be determined that the droplet 6 is left. Of course, a picture in which the droplet 6 remains may be used as a reference picture.
In one embodiment of the invention, the removal part 5 is configured as a wiping part, or as a suction part. The wiping part can be made of a material with stronger water absorption so as to ensure the wiping effect. The suction unit may be, for example, a vacuum suction device, and the liquid 6 may be directly sucked by vacuum suction.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the liquid level sensor 13 includes two sets of upper and lower sets spaced apart in the height direction, for detecting an upper liquid level limit and a lower liquid level limit, respectively. When the liquid level sensor 13 below can not detect the cleaning agent, the cleaning agent is reminded to be supplemented, and when the liquid level sensor 13 above detects the cleaning agent in the cleaning agent supplementing process, the cleaning agent supplementing is reminded to be stopped. The liquid level sensor 13 is arranged in a manner that is convenient for timely supplementing the cleaning agent, and can prevent the excessive supplementing of the cleaning agent.

The cleaning agent supplementing mode omits manpower and improves the degree of automation.
In one embodiment of the invention, the nozzle cleaning apparatus may also include a wire mesh 16. A wire mesh 16 is provided at the bottom of the nozzle cleaning cartridge 3 for filtering the cleaning agent. After the nozzle 1 is washed many times, a lot of floc is left in the nozzle washing box 3, and the floc may enter the nozzle 1 during washing, thereby blocking the nozzle 1. For this purpose, the invention sets up the wire mesh 16 at the bottom of the nozzle cleaning box 3, when there is a lot of flocs in the nozzle cleaning box 3, lift the wire mesh 16, the wire mesh 16 will filter out the flocs, then clean the filtered flocs and put the wire mesh 16 back to the original position.
