を十分に防止するものである。[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention is capable of accurately quantifying liquids containing viscous fluids such as adhesives and various paste-like materials to a number of predetermined discharge positions according to a predetermined discharge amount. Regarding the liquid metering dispensing device, in particular, it is possible to perform high-accuracy metered dispensing that is not affected by changes in the amount of liquid remaining in the syringe or changes in the viscosity of the liquid in the syringe over time, and also to This makes it easier to drain the liquid and also sufficiently prevents the liquid inside the syringe from leaking unexpectedly.

て行うこととしている。Dispensing a fixed amount of liquid in a syringe at a predetermined dispensing position is usually performed by supplying pressurized air to the syringe filled with liquid. Supply control uses the pressure set by the mechanical (manual) pressure reducing valve via the discharge solenoid valve.
This is done by supplying it to a syringe for a predetermined period of time.

よって設定し直すことが余儀なくされていた。By the way, in such conventional technology, since a specific air pressure is supplied to the syringe for a certain period of time, changes in the amount of liquid remaining in the syringe and, in some cases, changes in the amount of liquid in the syringe over time. There is a problem in that the discharge amount fluctuates due to changes in viscosity, and in such a case, the operator is forced to manually reset at least one of the air pressure and the air supply time.

題があった。Moreover, with this prior art, when the device is stopped and when the syringe is moved from one dispensing position to the next,
There was a problem in that the liquid inside the syringe leaked out due to its own weight.

るものである。This invention was made by paying attention to such problems in the prior art, and eliminates the need for manual operations by the operator even in response to changes in the amount of liquid remaining in the syringe and changes in the viscosity of the liquid in the syringe over time. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a liquid metering dispensing device that can automatically maintain high dispensing accuracy without having to use a syringe, and can always reliably prevent leakage within a syringe.

た圧力設定信号を出力する制御部を設けたものである。The liquid metering discharge device of the present invention connects the syringe to the air supply source and the air suction source via the discharge solenoid valve, and there is a connection between the discharge solenoid valve and the air supply source.
An accumulator and a pressure reducing valve are installed in sequence from the solenoid valve side, and between the discharge solenoid valve and the air supply source,
When an accumulator and a pressure reducing valve for suction negative pressure are sequentially arranged from the solenoid valve side, a discharge signal is output to the discharge solenoid valve for a predetermined period of time, and a pressure reducing valve for pressure adjustment and a pressure reducing valve for suction negative pressure are outputted to the discharge solenoid valve. Each of the valves is provided with a control section that outputs a pressure setting signal corresponding to at least the remaining amount of liquid in the syringe.

て確実に防止される。Basically, this liquid metering dispensing device operates a discharging solenoid valve in response to a discharging signal output from a control unit, and fills the required liquid with pressurized air generated by an air supply source. The air suction source is communicated with the syringe by guiding the liquid into the syringe and discharging the liquid in the syringe to a predetermined discharge position, while the discharge solenoid valve returns to its original position based on the stoppage of output of the discharge signal from the control unit. By applying negative pressure to the liquid in the syringe, a fixed amount of liquid can be dispensed automatically and with excellent liquid drainage, and the liquid in the syringe can be prevented from leaking due to its own weight. is reliably prevented by offsetting its own weight with negative pressure acting thereon.
このようにして、一の吐出位置での液体の定量吐出を終
了した後は、シリンジを次の吐出位置へ移動させ、そこ
にて前述したと同様の定量吐出を繰り返し行う。After the fixed amount of liquid has been ejected at one ejection position in this manner, the syringe is moved to the next ejection position, and the same fixed amount ejection as described above is repeated there.
なおここにおいて、シリンジ内の液体残量が減少したと

して、シリンジ内の液体の、一定圧力の下での一定時間

が不可能となる。Note that when the remaining amount of liquid in the syringe decreases, for example, if the viscosity change of the liquid over time can be ignored, the amount of liquid in the syringe decreases due to an increase in the space inside the syringe. By applying pressure for a certain period of time under a certain pressure, it becomes impossible to accurately discharge a predetermined amount of liquid.

供給時間が一定であっても、液体の定量吐出精度の十分
な向上をもたらす。Therefore, based on the relative relationship between the amount of liquid remaining in the syringe and the air pressure required for fixed-dose dispensing, which has been determined through preliminary experiments and other methods, the controller can configure, for example, an electro-pneumatic regulator. By outputting a pressure setting signal to the required air pressure to the pressure regulating valve that can be Even if the supply time is constant, the accuracy of dispensing a fixed amount of liquid can be sufficiently improved.

精度を一層高めることができる。Here, more preferably, the amount of liquid discharged is determined as a function of the remaining amount of liquid in the syringe, the air pressure, and the discharge time, and the remaining amount of liquid in the syringe is determined by the air pressure supplied to the syringe. In addition, by supplementing with the output time of the ejection signal output from the control unit to the ejection electromagnetic valve, it is possible to diversify the method of controlling the amount of liquid ejected, and further improve the accuracy of quantitative ejection.

に適正な負圧の作用を担保する。Similarly, changes in the amount of liquid remaining in the syringe will result in fluctuations in the appropriate negative pressure applied to it, and if the negative pressure applied to the liquid is too large, it may even cause the liquid to be sucked into the pneumatic line. On the other hand, if it is too small, it will not be possible to reliably prevent liquid leakage.
Based on the relative relationship with the degree of negative pressure required to offset the liquid weight,
By outputting a pressure setting signal from the control unit to a suction negative pressure reducing valve, such as an electropneumatic regulator, to set the degree of vacuum according to the amount of liquid remaining in the syringe, the appropriate negative pressure is always applied to the liquid in the syringe. guarantee.

させることができる。By the way, if a suction solenoid valve is disposed between the discharge solenoid valve and the negative pressure system accumulator to selectively communicate the syringe with either the air suction source or the atmosphere, In particular, the negative pressure inside the syringe is discharged to the atmosphere by the suction solenoid valve before discharging the liquid in the syringe in a fixed amount again, and then the syringe is activated by the pressurized air supplied to the syringe. By increasing the pressurizing efficiency of the internal liquid, the internal pressure of the syringe can be brought to a predetermined value extremely quickly, and therefore, the accuracy of quantitative dispensing can be further improved.

ことが必要的である。In addition, in the above description, in order to simplify the explanation, it is assumed that only the remaining amount of liquid in the syringe changes, but in addition, if the viscosity of the liquid also changes,
The pressure setting signal output from the control unit to each pressure reducing valve and the discharge signal output time to the discharge solenoid valve were determined through experiments and other methods for liquids with viscosity changes.
It is necessary to base the value on an empirically or theoretically determined value.

。By the way, by operating the keyboard 14, the main control unit 11 stores information on the memory of each channel in relation to fluctuations such as changes in the amount of liquid remaining in the syringe and changes in the viscosity of the liquid over time. By storing the appropriate discharge pressure and suction negative pressure degree that change accordingly, and more preferably, the appropriate discharge time in addition to these, the main control unit can be easily adjusted during automatic operation of the device. Based on the input of an external signal to 11, a pressure setting signal to the appropriate pressure recalled from memory 12 is output to each pressure reducing valve 6.9, and preferably to timer control 13, also from memory 12. In order to bring about the called appropriate discharge time, an output time control signal of the discharge signal to the discharge solenoid valve 4 is also output.

brings about communication between the air supply source 2 and the syringe 1 based on the output of an ejection signal from the timer control unit 13 over a certain period of time, more preferably over a certain period of time depending on at least the amount of liquid remaining in the syringe. As a result, the pressure regulating valve 6 supplies the appropriate pressure set by the pressure setting signal from the main control section I1 to the syringe 1 until the discharge signal is stopped.

This is done automatically by calling based on external signals input to the main control unit 11 in response to changes in the remaining amount, changes in the viscosity of the liquid in the syringe, etc. According to this device, the operator's manual It is possible to respond to various changes extremely quickly without requiring any operations. Therefore, when dispensing liquid sequentially to a large number of predetermined dispensing positions, the required dispensing amount can be adjusted at each location. Regardless of the amount of liquid remaining in the syringe or the level of viscosity of the liquid in the syringe, regardless of whether the amounts are equal or not equal between the discharge positions,
A desired amount of liquid can be ejected to each ejection position with high accuracy.

液体自重を、効果的に相殺することができる。The negative pressure degree of the negative pressure supplied to the syringe 1 in this way can also be determined by recalling data previously stored in the memory 12 based on the input of an external signal to the main control unit 11, and By outputting the corresponding pressure setting signal from the main control unit 11 to the suction negative pressure reducing valve 9, it can be specified automatically and without time delay, and the value can be determined based on the liquid in the syringe. Since the change in the remaining amount of the liquid and the change in the viscosity of the liquid over time are taken into consideration, the weight of the liquid in the syringe can be effectively offset by the effect of the negative pressure on the syringe 1.
