Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for applying a viscous material to a workpiece, in particular for applying an adhesive or sealant to a motor vehicle body component, according to the preamble of claim 1.
- an application nozzle having a material outlet opening is mounted on a nozzle carrier, which in turn is usually mounted on a robot arm.
- a nozzle carrier Through the nozzle carrier and the application nozzle extends a job channel to the material outlet opening into which the material to be applied is introduced by means of one or more leads.
- the connection between the application nozzle and nozzle carrier is rigid.
- the connection of the application nozzle with the nozzle carrier is acted upon by forces that can cause increased wear. The same applies if the applicator nozzle runs against an obstacle. If the application nozzle is bent or otherwise damaged, a reliable material application is no longer possible.
- the invention is based on the idea that a limited mobility of the application nozzle relative to the nozzle carrier reduces the wear of the components, as in an application of the application nozzle by external forces, for example, when friction forces occur during movement of the nozzle on the workpiece surface or when approaching a Obstacle, the application nozzle can escape the applied force by moving relative to the nozzle carrier. External forces acting on the application nozzle are thereby minimized, so that wear of the application nozzle and the nozzle carrier is reduced.
- the robot path can be greatly simplified, since no such high precision in the nozzle position is required.
- the elastically movable application nozzle can compensate for manufacturing tolerances of the workpieces, so that their measurement can be omitted.
- the first connecting part has a cylindrical outer contour
- the second connecting part has a cylindrical inner contour.
- the limited mobility of the application nozzle relative to the nozzle carrier is achieved in that the outer diameter of the first connecting portion is smaller than the inner diameter of the second connecting portion.
- an elastic sealing ring arranged between the connecting parts. This also seals the connecting parts against each other and prevents the escape of material in the region of the connecting parts.
- the connecting parts are releasably secured to each other by means of at least two connecting pins.
- each connecting pin penetrates both connecting parts at least partially and is arranged immovable transversely to its longitudinal extent in one of the connecting parts and limitedly movable in the other connecting part.
- the connecting pins are each immovable transversely to its longitudinal extent with respect to the second connecting part and limited with respect to the first connecting part.
- the connecting pins are arranged in pairs parallel to each other.
- the connecting pins extend in each case through a hole in the second connecting part and an opening open to the surface of the first connecting part in the first connecting part.
- the nozzle carrier has the first connecting portion, while the application nozzle has the second connecting portion.
- Fig. 1 is an application device in exploded view
- FIG. 2 the applicator device of FIG. 1 in the assembly in section.
- the application device 10 shown in the drawing is used for the application of viscous material such as adhesive or sealant on workpieces, for example, on body parts in motor vehicle production. It is mounted on a robot arm 12 shown schematically in the drawing, with the aid of which it can be moved relative to the workpiece.
- the application device 10 has an application nozzle 14, which is detachably mounted on a nozzle carrier 16. Through the nozzle carrier 16 and the applicator 14 extends a dispensing channel 18 for the viscous material to a material outlet opening 20 at the free end of the applicator 14. In the application channel 18, the viscous material is introduced and pressurized promoted to the material outlet opening 20, where it exits and on the respective workpiece is applied.
- the nozzle carrier 16 For fastening the application nozzle 14 on the nozzle carrier 16, the nozzle carrier 16 has a first connecting portion 22, which has a cylindrical outer contour.
- the application nozzle 14 has, at its end facing the nozzle carrier 16, a second connecting part 24 which has a cylindrical inner contour and in which the first connecting part 22 is received, the second connecting part 24 enclosing the first connecting part 22.
- the outer diameter of the first connecting portion 22 is smaller than the inner diameter of the second connecting portion 24, so that between the two connecting parts 22, 24 sufficient clearance is present in order to tilt the applicator nozzle 14 limited to the nozzle carrier 16 can.
- two mutually parallel holes 26a, 26b extend, each communicating with an open-edged recess 28a, 28b in the lateral surface 30 of the first connecting part 22.
- a connecting pin 32a, 32b is inserted, whose circular cross section corresponds to the cross section of the associated hole 26a, 26b.
- a first connecting pin 32a has a larger diameter than a second connecting pin 32b.
- the two connecting pins 32a, 32b are integrally connected to one another by means of a connecting element 34.
- Each of the recesses 28a, 28b has, across the longitudinal extent of the connecting pins 32a, 32b, a width which is greater than the diameter of the associated hole 26a, 26b.
- the connecting pins 32a, 32b tilt limited relative to the nozzle carrier 16, resulting in a tilting transversely to the longitudinal extent of the connecting pins 32a, 32b immovably associated with these application nozzle 14 results.
- an elastically deformable sealing ring 38 is arranged, which opposes a tilting of the application nozzle 14 relative to the nozzle carrier 16 from the basic position shown in FIG. 2, a restoring force and also the Connecting parts 22, 24 seals against each other.
- the connection between the application nozzle 14 and the nozzle carrier 16 is easy to solve for removing the applicator nozzle 14 by the connecting pins 32 a, 32 b are gripped and pulled on the connecting element 34.
- the invention relates to a device 10 for applying a viscous material to a workpiece, in particular for applying an adhesive or sealant to a motor vehicle body component, with a material outlet opening 20 having application nozzle 14 and the application nozzle 14 carrying nozzle carrier 16, to which the application nozzle 14 is releasably attached, wherein a application channel 18 through the nozzle carrier 16 and the application nozzle 14 to the Materialaustrittsöff- 20 extends.
- the nozzle carrier 16 and the application nozzle 14 each have a connecting part 22, 24, wherein a first connecting part 22 is inserted into a second connecting part 24 and is encompassed by this and that the connecting parts 22, 24 relative to each other against the return force are limited by a resilient return element 38 from a basic position out.
