Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of raincoat folding processing technology, and more specifically to a four-sided folding and welding processing mechanism for the production of ponchos and raincoats. Background Technology
[0002] A poncho raincoat is a type of raincoat. During its processing, it uses a single rectangular piece of plastic fabric as the material. In the process of processing, the four sides of the rectangular plastic fabric need to be folded and welded to improve the wear resistance and smoothness of the raincoat's edges.
[0003] Currently, when processing the four sides of ponchos and raincoats by machine, only three sides can often be pre-processed. Then, a robotic arm pulls the fabric detached from the roll onto a folding and welding machine for folding and welding. With this processing method, since the semi-finished product with three sides already separated from the roll, and because EVA fabric is light, thin, and soft, and also generates a certain amount of static electricity, the fabric is in a free state after being separated from the roll. Coupled with air resistance, the consistency of the fabric's state in the folding and welding process deteriorates, and the quality of the final folding and welding process becomes uncontrollable, increasing the scrap rate and manual sorting costs.
[0004] In view of this, this utility model proposes a four-sided folding and welding edge processing mechanism for the production of ponchos and raincoats to solve this problem. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a four-sided folding and welding edge processing mechanism for the production of ponchos and raincoats, so as to solve the problems existing in the background art.
[0006] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a four-sided folding and welding edge processing mechanism for the production of ponchos and raincoats, including a frame, wherein the frame is provided from left to right with a feeding and correction mechanism, a folding mechanism, a hot welding edge mechanism, a hem speed buffer mechanism one, a buttoning mechanism, a hem speed buffer mechanism two, a hat position marking mechanism, a double hem folding mechanism, and two sets of robotic arm linkage gripping mechanisms for pulling the fabric;
[0007] The folding mechanism is used to fold the front and back sides of the fabric. The folding mechanism includes a base plate set on the surface of the frame, and a folding piece set on the top of the frame corresponding to the base plate. The front and back sides of the fabric are folded through the gap formed by the folding piece and the base plate, and the folding amount is adjusted by adjusting the position of the folding piece.
[0008] The hot welding edge mechanism includes a silicone roller and a heating welding plate set on the surface of the frame. The fabric is conveyed between the silicone roller and the heating welding plate, and the front and rear sides of the fabric are welded by heating the heating wire built into the heating welding plate.
[0009] The double hem folding mechanism includes two downward electric cylinders, or two pneumatic cylinders, symmetrically arranged above the frame. Each pair of downward electric cylinders forms a group. A welding block is fixedly installed at the telescopic end of each group of downward electric cylinders. The welding block has a built-in heating rod or a surface-mounted heating wire to heat the fabric. A welding fixing base is provided on the surface of the frame below the welding block, providing bottom support for the welding. A folding fixing block and a synchronous wheel mechanism are arranged above the frame. A folding movable block is arranged on the surface of the synchronous wheel mechanism. An electric cutting wire and a cutting cylinder that drives the electric cutting wire to move up and down are arranged above the frame. A fabric pressing base, a fabric pressing cylinder, and a fabric pressing rod fixedly installed at the telescopic end of the fabric pressing cylinder are arranged above the frame. The fabric pressing rod corresponds to the position of the fabric pressing base.
[0010] Furthermore, the inner wall of the frame is provided with several conveying rollers for supporting the fabric.
[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: by setting up conveyor rollers, it is convenient to continuously convey the strip fabric.
[0012] Furthermore, the first and second hem speed buffer mechanisms are used to adjust the speed of the fabric at the button attaching machine, so that the machine can still operate normally despite the speed difference between the front and rear.
[0013] Furthermore, the fastening mechanism includes a fastening machine fixedly mounted above the frame.
[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution: by setting up a button-attaching machine, it is possible to perform button-attaching processing on both sides of the fabric.
[0015] Furthermore, the hat position marking mechanism includes a marking cylinder fixedly installed above the frame and a cold knife fixedly installed on the surface of the telescopic end of the marking cylinder. The marking cylinder and the cold knife punch holes in the hat position to facilitate accurate positioning during subsequent manual welding of the hat.
[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution: by setting a marking cylinder and a cold knife, holes can be punched at the cap position of the fabric, making it easier to accurately locate the cap during subsequent manual welding.
[0017] Furthermore, the synchronous pulley mechanism is a system composed of a motor, a synchronous pulley, and a synchronous belt. The rotation of the motor drives the synchronous pulley to rotate, causing the folded edge movable block to flip.
[0018] Furthermore, a connecting guide rail is provided above the frame, and the electric cutting wire is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting guide rail.
[0019] As a further description of the above technical solution: by setting a connecting guide rail, the lifting path of the electric cutting wire can be restricted, ensuring the stability of the electric cutting wire's movement.
[0020] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:
[0021] 1. Compared with existing technologies, this four-sided folding and welding edge processing mechanism for producing raincoats involves conveying the plastic fabric used to make the raincoat from left to right on the machine frame surface. During the conveying process, the left and right sides of the fabric are folded and welded using a folding mechanism and a hot welding edge mechanism. Subsequently, through a double-swing folding mechanism, during the fabric conveying process, a cutting cylinder extends to drive the electric cutting wire downwards, enabling the fabric to be cut. Two folding movable blocks are flipped to fold the ends of the fabric. Then, from right to left, a downward electric cylinder drives the welding block downwards to weld the fabric. Following this action, the fabric on the left side of the cut wire is still on the roll. The feeding roller keeps it under tension, while the built-in vacuum pump on the folding and fixing rod keeps the fabric tightly attached to the folding rod for folding and welding while maintaining tension. The fabric on the right side of the cut wire is pressed by the pressing device and adsorbed onto the folding rod by the vacuum pump, allowing the fabric to be precisely folded and welded while maintaining tension. This achieves the purpose of precisely folding and welding the left and right sides of the cut fabric without the need for secondary processing, thus ensuring the efficiency and quality of the four-sided folding and welding process of the poncho and raincoat.
[0022] 2. Compared with existing technologies, the four-sided folding and welding edge processing mechanism for producing ponchos and raincoats facilitates continuous conveying of strip fabric by setting conveyor rollers; it enables the installation of buttons on the front and back sides of the fabric by setting a button attaching machine; it allows punching holes at the hood position of the fabric by setting a marking cylinder and a cold knife, making it easier to accurately position the hood during subsequent manual welding; and it restricts the lifting path of the electric cutting wire by setting a connecting guide rail, ensuring the stability of the electric cutting wire's movement.

[0032] The feeding and correction mechanism 24 consists of an air shaft, a correction device, a cylinder, and a series of mechanical structures. The air shaft passes through the inner tube of the original EVA fabric, and after inflation, it fixes the raw material. Then, through the correction device, it adjusts the front and rear positions of the fabric so that the folding amount on the front and rear sides of the fabric is consistent.
[0033] The folding mechanism is used to fold the front and back sides of the fabric. The folding mechanism includes a base plate 2 set on the surface of the frame 1.
