    Abstract: A glue application head for bonding is provided, including a main body. The main body includes a cavity for storing glue and a slit for applying the glue. Through the slit, the glue in the cavity is discharged from the glue application head to be applied on a workpiece to form a glue path with a predetermined line width. Not only can a glue layer with a uniform thickness be obtained, but also a problem of no glue coming out can be prevented. Accordingly, the glue application head has improved performance in coating the glue on the workpiece, and bonding ability of the glue can also be improved. A gluing mechanism with the glue application head and a bonding equipment including the gluing mechanism are also provided. A good fit is provided between the glue application head and the workpiece to prevent no dispensing and an overflow of the glue.

  • Patent number: 10338143
    Abstract: A fault condition is diagnosed in an electric machine that includes a rotor and a plurality of permanent magnets. To do so, the rotor is rotated so that each of the plurality of permanent magnets passes a magnetic flux density sensor, and the values of magnetic flux density are measured using the magnetic flux density sensor at a plurality of positions of the rotor. The measured values of magnetic flux density are analyzed and a magnitude of a peak amplitude is compared in a time or frequency domain with a reference value. If the peak amplitude is below the reference value, the electric machine is determined to have a fault condition.
