Description

Automated inline deposition system {Deposition System for menufacturing cosmetic vessel}

The present invention relates to a technology capable of increasing process efficiency by continuously performing one in-line process on a structure such as a cosmetic container.

In general, cosmetics are formed in various shapes such as round, oval, and square shapes according to their use, and are formed in various sizes according to portable, sample, and capacity. It is formed in several configurations, such as an outer cover.

These cosmetic containers are painted in various colors according to their use and design, and in the case of a single cosmetic container being a container formed of a plurality of components, each component must undergo a process of painting with different characteristics of paint. .

In the conventional method of painting cosmetic containers, which is usually performed, the cosmetic container is mounted on a chain spindle conveyor in which rotatable and stopable spindles are formed at regular intervals, and then static electricity and dust are removed through an antistatic booth with brushes.

After the UV coating is applied to the cosmetic container that is moving after removing static electricity and dust, the coating process is dried through a drying device.

After that, the cosmetic container on which the coating process has been completed is separated from the conveyor and subjected to a metal deposition process by attaching a metal skin to the vacuum deposition device. The painting process of the painted cosmetic container being dried through a drying device is performed, so that the overall coating of the cosmetic container is completed by three major processes.

However, in this conventional cosmetic container painting method, when the cosmetic container is mounted on the spindle of the conveyor, the cosmetic container is inserted into the bush on which the frame corresponding to the outer shape of the cosmetic container is formed, and then it has to be mounted on the spindle again. As the bushes suitable for the shape and size of the container are individually manufactured and applied, the cost of manufacturing the mounting bush is excessively consumed, and the need to mount (fit) the cosmetic container to the corresponding mounting bush is done manually. Accordingly, there was a problem in that process time and manpower were excessively consumed. In addition, after the coating process is completed, during the metal deposition process, the cosmetic container is pulled out together with the mounting bush from the spindle of the conveyor moving in the process of mounting the cosmetic container on the deposition shelf, and then the cosmetic container and the mounting bush are separated. This was required, and after the metal deposition process, during the painting process, the process of re-mounting the cosmetic container mounted on the deposition shelf by inserting it into the mounting bush was required, resulting in increased processing time and excessive manpower consumption.

As a solution to this problem, Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1650867 tried to solve this by modifying the shape of the structure that performs the cosmetic container mounting and mounting, but the overall painting process and the deposition process are separated. However, there is still a limit to solving the problem of excessive manpower required for the process of moving and remounting the container in the process itself. Furthermore, this problem arises when the cosmetic container is moved by a worker when the coating process is switched from the coating process to the metal deposition process and from the metal deposition process to the painting process. There is still a problem in that paint defects occur due to scratches, foreign matter adhesion, and peeling, and thus product productivity is lowered.
