[0031] As Figure 1 , 2 shown, an automatic wick transportation structure of the present invention is provided between a wire stretching station and a sealing station, and includes: a conveying track 100; a placement mold 200, the placement mold 200 includes a placement portion 210, the placement portion 210 is provided with an inner cavity 211 for placing the wick, and the placement mold 200 is connected to the conveying track 100 to forwardly transport the wick; a transfer mechanism 300, the transfer mechanism 300 is correspondingly arranged at the wire stretching station and / or the sealing station to transfer the wick between the placement mold 200 and the wire stretching station or the sealing station, and it includes a clamping structure 400 and a power structure 500, the clamping structure 400 is provided with a first clamping arm 410 and a second clamping arm 420, the first clamping arm 410 and the second clamping arm 420 are provided with opposite C-shaped positions 430, and a clamping station for the wick is formed between the two C-shaped positions 430, and the power structure 500 is connected to the clamping structure 400 to drive the clamping structure 400 to transfer the wick.

[0032] In specific applications, a transfer mechanism 300 is arranged corresponding to the wire stretching station and / or the sealing station on the conveying track 100, and the wick is unloaded from the wire stretching machine and loaded onto the sealing machine through the transfer mechanism 300. Among them, the wick is clamped and transferred by the clamping structure 400, and the clamping station formed by the relatively arranged C-shaped positions 430 makes the clamping of the wick more stable; after the wick is unloaded from the wire stretching machine and transferred to the placement mold 200, the wick is transported to the sealing station where the sealing machine is located through the conveying track 100. During the process, the wick is stably placed through the inner cavity 211 of the placement mold 200 to avoid production safety accidents such as the wick falling or colliding with each other during transportation. Finally, the wick is loaded onto the sealing machine again through the transfer mechanism 300, thereby realizing the automatic production process of unloading, transporting, and loading the wick between the wire stretching machine and the sealing machine, greatly improving the production efficiency; during the process, at least 3 workers including the wire stretching station unloading personnel, the wick material transporting personnel, and the sealing machine loading personnel can be reduced, effectively reducing the labor cost and production cost. Specifically, a plurality of placement molds 200 are provided, and the wicks are continuously transported under the drive of the conveying track 100 to improve the production efficiency.

[0033] In some embodiments, both ends of the first clamping arm 410 and the second clamping arm 420 are provided with two spaced clamping portions 431, and the C-shaped position 430 is arranged on the clamping portion 431. Specifically, the distance between the two layers of clamping portions 431 is adapted to the size of the wick head, and the size of the C-shaped position 430 is adapted to the size of the wick tube portion, so that the clamping structure clamps the wick in a way that jams the wick head, effectively avoiding breaking the wick.

[0034] As Figure 2 , 7 As shown, in some preferred embodiments, the above-mentioned conveying track 100 is provided with a power member 110 for providing friction. The placement mold 200 is connected with a moving seat 212 and is in contact connection with the power member 110 through the moving seat 212 to move forward by friction. Thus, the power connection structure between the placement mold 200 and the conveying track 100 is simple. When the placement mold 200 is conveyed to the wire stretching station and / or the sealing station, only by controlling the specific placement mold 200 to be stationary relative to the corresponding processing station, the feeding and discharging of the wick can be carried out. For example, blocking the advancement of the placement mold 200 or making the placement mold 200 leave the conveying track 100, without pausing the operation of the conveying track 100 to affect the conveying of other placement molds and the feeding / discharging work of another processing station, and it is beneficial to the replacement of the placement mold. Specifically, the power member 110 is provided with an installation portion 120 for installation and fixation.

[0035] In some preferred embodiments, the above-mentioned power member 110 is arranged in a crescent shape. In some embodiments, the conveying track 100 is arranged in a closed loop. After the placement mold 200 brings the wick from the wire stretching station to the sealing station, it follows the closed-loop conveying track and returns to the wire stretching station without manual follow-up of the placement mold. The closed-loop conveying track will form a turning angle. At the turning angle, the distance between adjacent power members will increase, resulting in insufficient contact between the placement mold and the power member, and the generated friction will decrease, affecting the forward movement of the placement mold. By arranging the power member in a crescent shape and utilizing the arc characteristics of the crescent shape, the power member can maintain a close distance at the turning angle, ensuring that the driving force for the placement mold to move forward is not affected.

[0036] As Figure 2 As shown, in some preferred embodiments, the above-mentioned placement mold 200 further includes a guiding portion 220, and the guiding portion 220 communicates with the inner cavity 211 and is used to guide the wick into the inner cavity 211. Thus, when the alignment between the inner cavity 211 of the placement mold 200 and the transfer mechanism 300 is not accurate enough, the wick can accurately enter the inner cavity 211 under the guidance of the guiding portion 220, avoiding losses caused by collision or dropping. Specifically, the guiding portion 220 can be arranged in a horn shape.

[0037] In some preferred embodiments, the placing portion 210 further has a support platform 213, which is provided with a through bottom of the inner cavity 211. The support platform 213 is arranged corresponding to the inner cavity 211 and is disposed below the inner cavity 211. Thus, the wick enters the inner cavity 211 and is placed on the support platform 213, which can prevent foreign objects from entering the inner cavity and accumulating during operation, thereby affecting the stability of the placing mold for placing the wick.

[0038] In some preferred embodiments, the automatic wick transportation structure further includes a blocking structure (not shown in the figure), which is arranged corresponding to the above-mentioned wire stretching station and / or sealing station. The blocking structure includes a third power component and a blocking component. The third power component is connected to the blocking component to drive the blocking component into the conveying track 100 to block the forward movement of the placing mold 200. Thus, automatic control of the stillness or movement of the placing mold relative to the processing station is realized. Specifically, the third power component can adopt a cylinder, which is fixedly arranged on one side of the conveying track 100. The blocking component is connected to the piston end of the cylinder, and the placing mold 200 is blocked by the piston end extending into the conveying guide rail 100.

[0039] Such as Figure 4 , 5As shown, in some embodiments, the above-mentioned power structure 500 includes an execution component, a first power component 510 and a second power component 520. The execution component includes a turning arm 531 in a Z-like shape, a turning guide rail 532 and a first guide rail 533. The turning guide rail 532 and the first guide rail 533 are arranged in parallel. The cross arm a at one end of the Z-like turning arm 531 is connected to the first guide rail 533 through a rotating seat 534 and can rotate relative to the rotating seat 534. The cross arm b at the other end of the Z-like turning arm 531 is slidably connected to the turning guide rail 532. The first power component 510 is connected to the rotating seat 534 to drive the Z-like turning arm 531 to reciprocate along the turning guide rail 532 and the first guide rail 533. A turning groove 535 is provided in the middle of the turning guide rail 532. The turning groove 535 is used to receive the cross arm b to enable the Z-like turning arm 531 to swing. The cross arm a is connected to the clamping structure 400 to drive the clamping structure 400 to turn. The second power component 520 is connected to the execution component to drive the execution component to move up and down. In a specific application, the processing state of the wick in the wire stretching machine is just the opposite of the up and down orientation of its processing state in the sealing machine. Therefore, after the wick cut from the wire stretching machine needs to be turned around in the up and down orientation, it is then loaded into the sealing machine. Driven by this power mechanism, when the clamping structure 400 clamps the wick and transfers it to the placement mold 200, the up and down orientation turning adjustment is completed at the same time. Specifically, the rotating seat 534 slides along the first guide rail 533 through a first slider 536. Before the turning starts, the cross arm b is located in front of the cross arm a. The first power component 510 drives the cross arm a to slide forward along the first guide rail 533, and at the same time pushes the cross arm b to slide forward synchronously along the turning guide rail 532. When the cross arm b passes through the turning groove 535, it will fall into the turning groove 535, causing the cross arm a to rotate to a certain extent relative to the rotating seat 534, and the turning starts. The cross arm a continues to slide forward. Since the cross arm b is blocked by the turning groove 535 and cannot slide forward synchronously with the cross arm a, the Z-like turning arm 531 swings with the cross arm b as the fulcrum, thereby driving the clamping structure 400 to turn. The cross arm a continues to slide forward until it is located in front of the cross arm b, pulling the cross arm b back from the turning groove 535 to the body of the turning guide rail 532, and the turning is completed. At the same time, during the transfer process, the second power component 520 drives the execution component to move up and down, so that the clamping structure 400 can take out the wick from the placement structure of the wire stretching machine and put it into the placement mold 200.

[0040] In some preferred embodiments, the cross arm b is provided with a rolling member 537. The rolling member 537 is rotatably connected to the cross arm b relative to the cross arm b, so that the cross arm b slides along the turning guide rail 532 through the rolling member 537. Thus, the cross arm b slides along the turning guide rail 532 in a relatively rolling manner, making the turning process smoother. Specifically, the rolling body 537 can be a roller or a bearing. The specific connection and installation are prior art and will not be elaborated in detail here.

[0041] In some preferred embodiments, the cross arm b is connected with a turning tension spring 538, and one end of the turning tension spring 538 is fixedly arranged relative to the turning guide rail 532. Thus, during the turning process, the pulling force of the turning tension spring 538 urges the cross arm b to enter the turning groove 535, providing further power for the turning of the Z-shaped turning arm 531 and the clamping structure 400, and ensuring the strength and efficiency of the turning.

[0042] As Figure 5 shown, specifically, the first power component 510 includes a first cam 511, a first L-shaped swing arm 512, a third L-shaped swing arm 513 and a movable connecting piece 514. A swing fulcrum is provided at the bent part of the first L-shaped swing arm 512 and the third L-shaped swing arm 513. A first roller 515 is provided on the short arm of the first L-shaped swing arm 512, and the first roller 515 contacts the first cam 511 to cause the first L-shaped swing arm 512 to swing up and down. A first return tension spring 516 is connected to the long arm of the first L-shaped swing arm 512; the long arm of the first L-shaped swing arm 512 is hinged to the short arm of the third L-shaped swing arm 513 to drive the third L-shaped swing arm 513 to swing horizontally. The long arm of the third L-shaped swing arm 513 is movably connected to the movable connecting piece 514, and the movable connecting piece 514 is connected to the rotating seat 534 to drive the rotating seat 534 to perform reciprocating motion. Specifically, the first cam 511 and the first L-shaped swing arm 512 can be installed on the machine table of the equipment through a pedestal bearing structure, and one end of the first return tension spring 546 is fixed on the machine table; the long arm of the first L-shaped swing arm 512 is connected to the short arm of the third L-shaped swing arm 513 through a first connecting rod 517, and both ends of the first connecting rod 517 are also connected with spherical plain bearings; the movable connecting piece 514 is provided with a sliding groove 518, and the long arm of the third L-shaped swing arm 513 is connected to the sliding groove 518 through a bearing or a roller, so that when the third L-shaped swing arm 513 swings to drive the executing component to perform a horizontal motion, it can slide in the sliding groove 518 to adapt to the height change caused by the up and down motion of the above-mentioned executing component.

[0043] Specifically, the second power component 520 includes a second cam 521, a second L-shaped swing arm 522, and a guiding main shaft 523. A swing fulcrum is provided at the bent portion of the second L-shaped swing arm 522. A second roller 524 is provided on the short arm of the second L-shaped swing arm 522 and contacts the second cam 521 to swing up and down under force. A second return spring 525 is connected to the long arm of the second L-shaped swing arm 522. The long arm of the second L-shaped swing arm 522 is connected to the guiding main shaft 523 to drive the guiding main shaft 523 to move up and down. The guiding main shaft 523 is connected to the actuating component, specifically, it can be connected through a connecting member. Specifically, the second cam 521 and the second L-shaped swing arm 522 are installed on the machine table of the equipment through a pedestal bearing structure, and one end of the second return spring 525 is fixed on the machine table; the long arm of the second L-shaped swing arm 522 is connected to the guiding main shaft 523 through a second connecting rod 526, and both ends of the second connecting rod 526 are also connected with spherical plain bearings; a guiding fixed seat 527 is installed on the machine table, and the guiding main shaft 523 moves up and down along the guiding fixed seat 527. Preferably, the second power component 520 further includes a guiding auxiliary shaft 528, which is connected to the guiding main shaft 523 and moves up and down following the guiding main shaft 523; the guiding fixed seat 528 is provided with a guiding hole 529, and the guiding auxiliary shaft 528 passes through the guiding hole 529 to move up and down.

[0044] Specifically, the above-mentioned first cam 511 and second cam 521 can be driven to rotate by the same driving rotating shaft, and the first L-shaped swing arm 512 and the second L-shaped swing arm 522 can rotate on the same rotating shaft.

[0045] As Figure 6 shown, in some other embodiments, the above-mentioned power structure 500 includes a first power component 510 and a second power component 520. The first power component 510 is connected to the clamping structure 400 to drive the clamping structure 400 to reciprocate horizontally, and the second power component 520 is connected to the first power component 510 to drive the clamping structure 400 to move up and down.

[0046] Specifically, the first power component 510 and the second power component 520 can be cylinders. The power structure 500 further includes a mounting plate 540. The first cylinder of the first power component 510 is mounted on the mounting plate 540, and its piston end is connected to the clamping structure 400 through a second slider 550 or directly connected to the clamping structure 400. The second slider 550 is equipped with a second guide rail 551, and the first cylinder and the second guide rail 551 extend horizontally. The piston end of the second cylinder of the second power component 520 is connected to the mounting plate 540. The mounting plate 540 is connected with a third slider 560, and the third slider 560 is matched with a third guide rail 561. The second cylinder and the third guide rail 561 extend vertically. Preferably, a buffer cylinder 570 is provided at one end of the second guide rail 551 away from the first cylinder and at the lower end of the third guide rail 561.

[0047] As Figure 3 shown, specifically, the above-mentioned clamping structure includes a third power component 440, a driving member 450, a first L-shaped driving arm 460 and a second L-shaped driving arm 470. The third power component 440 is connected to the driving member 450 to drive the driving member 450 to perform a linear motion. The first L-shaped driving arm 460 and the second L-shaped driving arm 470 are arranged oppositely, and the turning point of the two is the rotation fulcrum for clamping opening and closing. The short arm ends of the first L-shaped driving arm 460 and the second L-shaped driving arm 470 are hinged to the driving member 450, and the long arm ends are respectively connected to the first clamping arm 410 and the second clamping arm 420, and a return spring 480 is connected between the two long arms. In specific applications, the third power component 440 drives the driving member 450 to move forward. The driving member 450 pushes the short arms of the first L-shaped driving arm 460 and the second L-shaped driving arm 470, so that the first L-shaped driving arm 460 and the second L-shaped driving arm 470 swing away from each other, and the first clamping arm 410 and the second clamping arm 420 open. When the driving force of the third power component 440 is cancelled, the first clamping arm 410 and the second clamping arm 420 close under the pulling force of the return spring 480, thereby clamping the wick. Specifically, the third power component 440 can be a cylinder. The driving member 450 is provided with a hinge shaft 451. The turning points of the first L-shaped driving arm 460 and the second L-shaped driving arm 470 are fixedly connected with a rotating shaft 467.

The fulcrum component 490 is provided with two through holes, and the two rotating shafts 467 respectively pass through the two through holes, so that the first L-shaped driving arm 460 and the second L-shaped driving arm 470 swing along the two through holes.

[0048] As Figure 2As shown in the figure, specifically, the above-mentioned conveying track 100 can adopt existing technical means, such as a conveying chain, and a protective structure 130 for preventing the placed mold 200 from falling is arranged on both sides of the conveying chain. The above-mentioned power component 110 can be connected and fixed to the conveying chain by means of threaded connection, etc.; the sprocket wheels matching the conveying chain are horizontally arranged, and the conveying chain makes a rotational movement along the horizontal plane to realize a closed-loop conveying guide rail.

[0049] The automatic wick transportation structure of the present invention realizes the blanking of the wick in the wire winding machine and the feeding in the sealing machine through the transfer mechanism. Among them, the clamping workstations formed by the relatively arranged C-shaped positions enable the clamping structure to firmly clamp the wick for transfer. The wick is transported between the two workstations through the conveying track, and the wick is stably placed in the inner cavity of the placed mold, avoiding production safety accidents such as the wick falling or colliding with each other during the transportation process. Thus, an automatic production process for blanking, transporting, and feeding the wick between the wire winding machine and the sealing machine is realized, greatly improving the production efficiency and effectively reducing the labor cost.
