[0023] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0024] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first," "second," and "third" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.

[0025] A preferred embodiment of this application, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a fabric application device for textured artificial boards includes a hopper assembly 1, a quantitative spreading assembly 2, and a fabric application driving device 3. The hopper assembly 1 is provided with a discharge port. The quantitative spreading assembly 2 includes at least two components. The quantitative spreading assemblies 2 are arranged in the width direction directly below the discharge port. The fabric application driving device 3 is used to independently drive each of the quantitative spreading assemblies 2. Under the drive of the fabric application driving device 3, the quantitative spreading assembly 2 closes the discharge port and stops spreading the material or spreads the powder to the fabric application area directly below it.

[0026] In this embodiment, the width direction is the front-to-back direction, and the length direction is the left-to-right direction. The hopper assembly 1 is used to hold the powder that forms the texture; the hopper assembly 1 discharges the powder through the outlet, thereby causing the powder to form a texture on the fabric carrier 5. The powder discharged from the outlet is sprinkled onto the fabric carrier 5 by the metering dispensing assembly 2, thereby forming a texture. Specifically, at least two metering dispensing assemblies 2 are arranged below the outlet for dispensing, and the multiple metering dispensing assemblies 2 are evenly spaced along the front-to-back direction. Each metering dispensing assembly 2 is individually connected to the fabric driving device 3, so that each metering dispensing assembly 2 can move independently along the left-to-right direction. The purpose of this arrangement is that the fabric carrier 5 is located below the metering dispensing assemblies 2, and in this embodiment, the fabric carrier 5 moves from right to left. Therefore, when the fabric carrier 5 needs a fabric area to pass directly below the metering and spreading component 2, the fabric driving device 3 will drive the corresponding metering and spreading component 2 to move, causing the powder discharged from the outlet to fall onto the fabric carrier 5, forming a regional texture. When the fabric area moves out of the range of the metering and spreading component 2, the fabric driving device 3 will drive the metering and spreading component 2 again, causing the metering and spreading component 2 to close the outlet and stop the powder from falling onto the fabric carrier 5. Similarly, when other fabric areas on the fabric carrier 5 pass by the metering and spreading component 2, the fabric driving device 3 will drive the other corresponding metering and spreading components 2 to move individually, forming textures in other fabric areas, thus forming multiple regional textures on the fabric carrier 5, which can then form an overall texture. Therefore... The fabric spreading device of this application can move the quantitative spreading component 2 so that the powder in the hopper component 1 can be accurately spread onto different spreading areas of the powder carrier, thereby enabling the powder carrier to form different texture patterns.

[0027] Furthermore, a transport platform is provided along the length direction below the quantitative material dispensing component 2; the transport platform is used to drive the fabric carrier 5 to move directly below all the quantitative material dispensing components 2. This application uses the transport platform to drive the fabric carrier 5 to move to the left below the quantitative material dispensing components 2, so that each fabric area on the fabric carrier 5 can pass directly below the quantitative material dispensing components 2, thereby allowing the powder to be dispensed onto the fabric area to form a texture.

[0028] Preferably, the metering dispensing assembly 2 includes a base plate 21 and a metering plate 22; the base plate 21 is provided with a dispensing hole 210; the metering plate 22 is disposed between the discharge port and the base plate 21, and the bottom surface of the metering plate 22 is in close contact with the top surface of the base plate 21; the metering plate 22 is provided with a buffer hole 220; the metering plate 22 is drively connected to the dispensing driving device 3, and the dispensing driving device 3 can drive the metering plate 22 to slide relative to the base plate 21 along the length direction, so that the buffer hole 220 communicates with the discharge port or the dispensing hole 210. When the metering dispensing assembly 2 is not dispensing, the buffer hole 220 on the metering plate 22 is in communication with the discharge port, so that the powder flows into the buffer hole 220 through the discharge port for buffering. When the metering and dispensing component 2 needs to dispense material, the dispensing drive device 3 drives the metering plate 22 to move between the base plate 21 and the discharge port, so that the buffer hole 220 communicates with the dispensing hole 210. This allows the powder buffered in the buffer hole 220 to pass through the dispensing hole 210 and be dispensed onto the dispensing area of ​​the dispensing carrier 5, thus forming a texture. The purpose of this design is to limit the amount of powder dispensed onto the dispensing carrier 5 through the buffer hole 220, preventing the dispensing drive device 3 from being delayed and causing excessive powder to be dispensed onto the dispensing carrier 5, thereby avoiding waste and saving production costs. More preferably, the top surface of the metering plate 22 is attached to the bottom surface of the discharge port, and the bottom surface of the metering plate 22 is attached to the top surface of the base plate 21. The purpose of this arrangement is that when the metering plate 22 moves, the base plate 21 can seal the buffer hole 220 to prevent powder from spilling. Furthermore, when the buffer hole 220 is connected to the material distribution hole 210, the metering plate 22 can seal the discharge port to prevent powder from being discharged from the discharge port, thereby avoiding powder waste.

[0029] More preferably, the metering plate 22 has at least two buffer holes 220 along its length, and the radial dimensions of the buffer holes 220 on the same metering plate 22 are not completely equal. In actual production, the fabric carrier 5 needs to form textures of different sizes, and therefore the diameter of the powder used will also vary. Therefore, by setting buffer holes 220 with different radial diameters on the metering plate 22, the storage capacity of different buffer holes 220 is different, so that different metering holes can be selected for buffering according to the diameter of the powder, thereby increasing the applicability.

[0030] Furthermore, the discharge port is provided with an elastic baffle 11. The upper side of the elastic baffle 11 is fixedly connected to the discharge port, and the lower side of the elastic baffle 11 is installed in contact with the top surface of the metering plate 22. The elastic baffle 11 is provided to seal the left and right sides of the discharge port, thereby preventing powder leakage. More preferably, when the metering plate 22 moves the buffer hole 220 to communicate with the feeding hole 210, the buffer hole 220 and the elastic baffle 11 make elastic contact when the buffer hole 220 passes through it, reducing friction and allowing the buffer hole 220 to pass through easily, thereby preventing jamming.

[0031] In actual production, various types of fabric-spreading drive devices can drive the metering plate 22 to move horizontally. However, in this embodiment, the fabric-spreading drive device 3 is preferably a telescopic cylinder. The top surface of the transport platform is provided with a mounting support 41. The telescopic cylinder is mounted on the mounting support 41, and its telescopic drive end is connected to the metering plate 22 via a transmission connection. Because the telescopic cylinder drives smoothly and transmits precisely, it can control the metering plate 22 to move accurately, ensuring accurate material spreading.

[0032] Furthermore, the mounting support 41 also includes a plurality of mounting holes 410, which are evenly spaced along the length direction. The telescopic cylinder is connected to the mounting holes 410 via a connector, allowing the telescopic cylinder to be adjustablely mounted on the mounting support 41. Because the left end of the metering plate 22 is fixedly mounted on the telescopic cylinder, moving the telescopic cylinder left and right allows the discharge port to communicate with the buffer holes 220 of different diameters on the metering plate 22.

[0033] Furthermore, a screw assembly 12 is provided at the bottom of the hopper assembly 1; the screw assembly 12 includes a rotation drive 122 and a screw 121; the screw 121 is disposed along the width direction; the screw 121 is pulverizedly connected to the rotation drive 122, allowing the screw 121 to rotate along its own axis. After the powder enters the hopper assembly 1, it falls entirely to the bottom of the hopper assembly 1 under the action of gravity. However, sometimes the powder is too large in diameter and may clog the outlet. Therefore, in this example, a screw 121 is provided at the bottom of the hopper. The screw 121 is connected to the rotation drive 122, allowing it to rotate and thus stir the powder, preventing the powder from clogging the outlet.

[0034] More preferably, the screw 121 further includes a plurality of stirring blades 1211. To enable the screw 121 to better stir the powder, multiple stirring blades 1211 are provided on the screw 121 to ensure sufficient contact between the powder and the screw 121, thereby ensuring thorough stirring of the powder. In this embodiment, the rotation drive 122 is a drive motor.

[0035] Preferably, a controller is also included, which is electrically connected to the fabric drive device 3. In this embodiment, the controller is a PLC controller, which controls the operation of the fabric drive device 3 to ensure that the fabric drive device 3 can accurately control the movement of each of the metering plates 22, thereby ensuring accurate material dispensing.

[0036] The technical principles of the present invention have been described above with reference to specific embodiments. These descriptions are merely for explaining the principles of the invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the invention in any way. Based on this explanation, those skilled in the art can readily conceive of other specific embodiments of the invention without inventive effort, and these embodiments will all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
