Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of silkworm breeding, and in particular relates to a combing device of an automatic cocoon picking machine. Background Art

[0002] Silk is a common textile with the advantages of smooth surface, excellent heat dissipation and warmth retention, and UV resistance. Silk is made of silk, which is a continuous long fiber solidified from the silk fluid secreted by mature silkworms when they make cocoons. Silkworms, commonly known as silkworms, are one of the economic insects that feed on mulberry leaves and spin silk and make cocoons. They belong to the Lepidoptera, Bombyx mori family. Silkworms originated in China. Their development temperature is 7-40℃, and the optimal temperature for breeding is 20-30℃. They are mainly distributed in temperate, subtropical and tropical regions.

[0003] The life of a silkworm goes through the process of silkworm egg, larva, silkworm baby, silkworm cocoon and silkworm moth, which takes more than 40 days in total. The silkworm baby that has just hatched from the egg is dark in color and is called "larva". It is covered with fine hairs, which will not be obvious after about two days. After the larva hatches, it will start to shed its skin after being fed for a period of time. The shed period lasts for about one day, which is called "hibernation". After molting once, it grows into a second-instar larva. The silkworm molts four times in total, and only when it becomes a fifth-instar larva does it start to spin silk and make cocoons. After the cocoons are completed, they are harvested.

[0004] Silkworms are generally raised in small bamboo frames, which have a simple structure, are easy to manufacture, can be woven by hand, and are low in cost. Silkworm farming is a fully artificial breeding method, in which everything from silkworm eggs to adulthood to cocoon harvesting is done through manual operation. This method is small-scale, has a low yield of cocoons, and is time-consuming and labor-intensive. With the development of society, silkworm farming alone cannot meet the demand for silk, so factory-based silkworm farming came into being. The current factory-based silkworm farming is small-scale, especially in terms of cocoon harvesting technology.

[0005] When silkworms are raised in factories, cocoon cages or clusters are used as places for silkworms to make cocoons. Silkworms spin silk in cocoon cages or clusters, and then the cocoons are taken out of the cocoon cages or clusters for spinning. The existing cocoon picking method is to completely separate the cocoons from the cocoon cages or clusters by using a brush on an automatic cocoon picking machine. However, the brush will be stuck with silk during the cocoon picking process. If too much silk is stuck, the working efficiency of the brush will be reduced and the cocoon cannot be completely separated from the cocoon cage or cluster, so the brush needs to be cleaned regularly. Summary of the invention

[0006] The invention aims to provide an automatic combing device for a cocoon picking machine, which is used for cleaning the brushes of the cocoon picking machine, preventing the brushes from gathering too much silk, and improving the working efficiency of the cocoon picking machine.

[0007] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] The invention discloses a combing device for an automatic cocoon collecting machine, wherein the cocoon collecting machine comprises a frame, and is characterized in that the combing device is slidably connected to the frame. The cocoon collecting machine separates the silkworm cocoons from the cocoon cage or the tufting tool by means of a brush. When the cocoon collecting machine is working, the combing device is in the original position. When the brush for cocoon collecting needs to be cleaned, the combing device slides along the frame to comb the brush, so that the silkworm silk on the brush can be fully cleaned.

[0009] Furthermore, the combing device includes a comb, a fixing plate is connected to the back of the comb, a cylinder is provided on the fixing plate, and the cylinder is connected to the comb. When the comb is in the original position, there is a certain distance between the comb and the brush to prevent the comb from affecting the work of the brush. When the combing device is working, the cylinder pushes the comb in the original position outward, thereby increasing the working range of the comb, and the extended comb can comb the brush.

[0010] Furthermore, guide rods are arranged on both sides of the cylinder, and the guide rods penetrate the fixed plate and are connected to the comb. The extension direction of the guide rods is the same as the extension direction of the cylinder, so as to ensure that the comb has good stability when combing the brush.

[0011] Furthermore, the fixing plate is provided with a guide rod limiting sleeve, and the guide rod passes through the guide rod limiting sleeve. The guide rod limiting sleeve enhances the stability of the guide rod, thereby enhancing the stability of the comb during operation.

[0012] Furthermore, sliders are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the fixed plate, and slide rails are horizontally arranged on the two side frames, and the slide rails match the sliders. The comb is installed on the frame through the fixed plate, and the comb moves horizontally along the slide rails on the frame through the sliders on both sides of the fixed plate, thereby combing the brush.

[0013] Furthermore, the comb comprises comb teeth and a mounting seat, the back of the comb teeth is connected to the mounting seat, and the cylinder and the guide rod penetrate the fixing plate and are connected to the mounting seat. The comb teeth are connected to the cylinder and the guide rod through the mounting seat, thereby enhancing the stability of the comb teeth during operation.

[0014] Furthermore, the gap between the comb teeth is 1 mm to 50 mm. The comb tooth gap is adjustable, and the smaller the comb tooth gap is, the better the cleaning effect of the brush is.

[0015] Furthermore, the front and rear sides of the fixing plate are respectively bolted with a front baffle and a rear baffle, and the comb is located between the front baffle and the rear baffle. When the comb is in place, it is surrounded by the front baffle and the rear baffle to protect the surface of the comb teeth and prevent the surface of the comb teeth from being damaged.

[0016] Furthermore, a gap is provided between the front baffle and the rear baffle, and the gap is not less than the diameter of the comb teeth. When the cylinder is working, the cylinder pushes the comb teeth, and the comb teeth extend from the gap, while the mounting seat is restricted between the front baffle and the rear baffle, thereby limiting the distance the comb teeth can move, preventing the mounting seat from being stuck with silk, and making it inconvenient to clean the combing device.

[0017] Furthermore, an upper combing device and a lower combing device are respectively arranged on the top and bottom of the frame. The comb teeth of the upper combing device face downwards and are used to clean the brush installed on the upper part of the frame; the comb teeth of the lower combing device face upwards and are used to clean the brush installed on the lower part of the frame. The brushes in the frame are fully cleaned by the two combing devices, thereby improving the cleaning rate.

[0018] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] The combing device in the present invention is located outside the brush, and the comb is pushed out by the cylinder. At the same time, the comb combs the brush horizontally along the guide rail through the slider to fully clean the silk on the brush. The present invention has a simple structure and is easy to install, which improves the working efficiency of the brush. The specific beneficial effects are:

[0020] 1. The guide rods on both sides of the cylinder ensure that the comb has good stability when combing the brush.

[0021] 2. The front baffle and rear baffle provided on the front and rear sides of the comb protect the surface of the comb teeth and prevent the surface of the comb teeth from being damaged.

[0022] 3. A combing device is arranged on the upper and lower parts of the cocoon picking machine to clean the brush inside the cocoon picking machine.

[0023] 4. The gap between the comb teeth can be adjusted. The smaller the gap between the comb teeth, the better the cleaning effect of the brush.

[0024] 5. A gap is provided between the front baffle and the rear baffle to limit the distance the comb teeth can move, preventing the mounting base from being stuck with silk, making it inconvenient to clean the comb. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0031] like Figures 1 to 5The combing device of an automatic cocoon picking machine shown in the figure comprises a comb, the comb comprises comb teeth 1 and a mounting seat 2, the back of the comb teeth 1 is fixedly connected to the mounting seat 2, and a fixing plate 3 is provided on the back of the mounting seat 2. The front and rear sides of the fixing plate 3 are respectively bolted with a front baffle plate 4 and a rear baffle plate 5, and the comb teeth 1 and the mounting seat 2 are located between the front baffle plate 4 and the rear baffle plate 5. When the comb is in the original position, it is surrounded by the front baffle plate 4 and the rear baffle plate 5 to protect the surface of the comb teeth 1 and prevent the surface of the comb teeth 1 from being damaged. A gap 6 is provided between the front baffle plate 4 and the rear baffle plate 5, and the gap 6 is not less than the diameter of the comb teeth 1.

[0032] The fixing plate 3 is provided with a cylinder 7, and guide rod limiting sleeves 14 are provided on both sides of the cylinder 7. The guide rod 8 passes through the guide rod limiting sleeves 14 and the fixing plate 3 and is connected to the mounting seat 2. When the combing device is working, the cylinder 7 pushes the comb located in the original position outward, thereby increasing the working range of the comb. The extension direction of the guide rod 8 is the same as that of the cylinder 7, ensuring that the comb has good stability during the working process. The guide rod limiting sleeve 14 enhances the stability of the guide rod 8, thereby enhancing the stability of the comb during work.

[0033] The cocoon picking machine includes a frame 9, a slider 10 is fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the fixed plate 3, and a slide rail 11 is horizontally arranged on the frame 9 on both sides. The slide rail 11 matches the slider 10, and the combing device is installed on the frame 9 through the slider 10. The comb is installed on the frame 9 through the fixed plate 3, and the comb is located outside the brush (not shown in the figure). At the same time, the comb moves horizontally along the slide rail 11 on the frame 9 through the sliders 10 on both sides of the fixed plate 3, thereby playing the effect of combing the brush.

[0034] In this embodiment, an upper combing device 12 and a lower combing device 13 are disposed on the top and bottom of the frame 9, and both the upper combing device 12 and the lower combing device 13 are located outside the brush. The comb teeth 1 of the upper combing device 12 face downward, and the comb teeth 1 of the lower combing device 13 face upward. When the comb teeth 1 are in the original position, there is a certain distance between the bottom of the comb teeth 1 and the brush, so as to prevent the comb 1 from affecting the work of the brush.

[0035] The upper combing device 12 and the lower combing device 13 are respectively located at the two ends of the frame 9. When the brush stops picking cocoons, the upper combing device 12 and the lower combing device 13 start to operate, and the cylinder 7 pushes the comb teeth 1 out of the gap 6 between the front baffle 4 and the rear baffle 5. At the same time, the mounting seat 2 is restricted between the front baffle 4 and the rear baffle 5 to prevent the mounting seat 2 from being stuck with silk, which is inconvenient to clean the combing device. When the comb teeth 1 are completely pushed out, the upper combing device 12 and the lower combing device 13 make horizontal reciprocating motions on the slide rail 11 at a speed of 1cm / s to 5cm / s through the slider 10 to fully clean the silk on the brush. When the upper combing device 12 and the lower combing device 13 reciprocate 5 to 15 circles, the upper combing device 12 and the lower combing device 13 move to the original position, and the cylinder 7 drives the comb teeth 1 to be retracted, and the comb teeth 1 are relocated between the front baffle 4 and the rear baffle 5.

[0036] The above are only specific embodiments of the present invention, but the technical features of the present invention are not limited thereto. Any simple changes, equivalent replacements or modifications made based on the present invention to solve basically the same technical problems and achieve basically the same technical effects are all included in the protection scope of the present invention.
