Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of glove processing equipment. Specifically, it particularly relates to a horizontal glove turning machine. Background Art

[0002] During the processing of knitted gloves or elastic gloves, knitting technology or sewing technology is required. At the knitting connection position or the sewing connection position, a relatively obvious connection will generally be formed. To ensure the aesthetics of the gloves, the connection positions are generally located on the reverse side of the gloves (the side that contacts the hand). After knitting or sewing is completed, the gloves need to be turned over to ensure that the connection positions are inside the gloves, thereby hiding the knitting or sewing parts inside the gloves.

[0003] Traditional manual turning is time-consuming and laborious, and the efficiency is relatively low. To solve the problem of low efficiency of manual turning, Chinese Patent Document Publication No. CN216688774U discloses a fully automatic glove turning machine, which realizes the automation of glove turning, and to a certain extent, improves the efficiency of glove turning and reduces the labor cost. However, the turning mechanism in the glove turning machine disclosed in this document needs to be vertically arranged, including a glove upper insertion tube and a glove sleeve tube, resulting in a relatively high vertical height of the glove turning machine. It not only occupies a large space height, but also causes inconvenience during maintenance. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a horizontal glove turning machine, which can perform turning operations on gloves, effectively save equipment space, and improve the efficiency of glove turning.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, this application is realized through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A horizontal glove turning machine described in this application includes a frame. An inlet conveyor belt and an outlet conveyor belt are arranged on the frame. A glove grabbing device cooperating with the inlet conveyor belt is also arranged on the frame. The glove grabbing device grabs gloves from the inlet conveyor belt and moves them to a glove mouth-opening device. The glove mouth-opening device fits the gloves onto a glove rotating plate. The glove rotating plate has a hand mold for the gloves to be inserted. The glove rotating plate rotates the hand mold to cooperate with a reverse glove rod under the drive of a rotation drive mechanism. A turning rod for fitting the gloves from the glove rotating plate onto the reverse glove rod is arranged at the glove rotating plate. The reverse glove rod moves between the outlet conveyor belt and a glove upper pressing cylinder under the drive of a reverse drive mechanism. The glove upper pressing cylinder acts on the reverse glove rod and leaves the gloves on the reverse glove rod on the outlet conveyor belt.

[0007] Furthermore, the glove grasping device described in this application includes an upper needle-punching suction cup located above the feeding conveyor belt. The upper needle-punching suction cup moves up and down relative to the feeding conveyor belt under the action of a needle-punching suction cup moving cylinder. The needle-punching suction cup moving cylinder is located on a needle-punching suction cup moving frame body, and the needle-punching suction cup moving frame body slides horizontally along a needle-punching cylinder moving slide rail under the action of a needle-punching suction cup driving cylinder. A lower needle-punching suction cup is arranged on the path where the upper needle-punching suction cup moves along with the needle-punching suction cup moving frame body.

[0008] Furthermore, the glove mouth expanding device described in this application includes a pair of glove expanding plates arranged in pairs. The pair of glove expanding plates are moved closer to or away from each other by an expanding cylinder. The expanding cylinder is located on a support plate translation slide rail and slides relative to the support plate translation slide rail under the action of a support rod translation driving cylinder.

[0009] Furthermore, the translation driving cylinder described in this application is located on a translation cylinder fixing plate. The translation cylinder fixing plate is connected to a waste removing support through a plate body adjusting rod. The waste removing support is located on the machine frame, and a vision detection device for realizing vision detection is also arranged on the waste removing support.

[0010] Furthermore, the rotation driving mechanism described in this application includes a flipping driving motor located on the machine frame. The flipping driving motor drives a flipping synchronous wheel to rotate through a flipping synchronous belt. The flipping synchronous wheel is installed on both sides of a glove rotating plate through a shaft body. The shaft bodies on both sides of the glove rotating plate are installed on the machine frame through bearing seats. At least one pair of hand molds is arranged on the glove rotating plate.

[0011] Furthermore, the turning rod described in this application is located at the telescopic end of a turning rod retracting cylinder, and the turning rods are distributed above and below a glove screwing-in plate. The turning rod retracting cylinder is slidably connected to a turning rod moving slide rail, and the turning rod moving slide rail is driven by a turning driving cylinder on the machine frame.

[0012] Furthermore, the turning rod described in this application includes a turning optical rod driven by a turning telescopic cylinder. A turning L-shaped plate is fixedly connected to the turning optical rod, and the turning L-shaped plate slides in an L-shaped plate chute of the glove rotating plate.

[0013] Furthermore, guide plates are arranged at the positions where the feeding conveyor belt cooperates with the glove grasping device, and the guide plates are located on both sides of the feeding conveyor belt.

[0014] Furthermore, an upper pressing wheel is arranged above the area formed by the guide plates on the feeding conveyor belt. The upper pressing wheel is connected to a pressing wheel support through a bearing structure.

[0015] Furthermore, guide adjusting knobs for adjusting the distance between adjacent guide plates are arranged on the machine frame on both sides of the guide plates.

[0016] Furthermore, the glove gripping device described in this application includes paired upper needle-piercing suction cups and lower needle-piercing suction cups. There is a gap for feeding gloves between the upper needle-piercing suction cup and the lower needle-piercing suction cup, and the upper needle-piercing suction cup and the lower needle-piercing suction cup approach or move away from each other under the action of the corresponding needle-piercing suction cup moving cylinders respectively; the upper needle-piercing suction cup and the lower needle-piercing suction cup are located at the end of the feeding conveyor belt.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are as follows:

[0018] This application avoids the drawback of limited space in traditional vertical glove turning machines. Through the improvement of the glove turning structure, single-station and double-station automatic glove turning are realized, which helps to improve the efficiency of glove turning.

[0029] Embodiment 1

[0030] As Figures 1 to 3 、 Figure 4As shown in the figure, a horizontal glove turning machine includes a frame 1 placed on a horizontal plane or a base. An inlet conveyor belt 2 and an outlet conveyor belt 31 for glove feeding are installed on the frame 1. The conveying end of the inlet conveyor belt 2 is provided with an upper needle suction cup 5. The upper needle suction cup 5 is located above the inlet conveyor belt 2 and can move closer to or away from the inlet conveyor belt 2 under the action of a needle suction cup moving cylinder 6. Guide plates 3 extending along the length direction of the inlet conveyor belt 2 are arranged on both sides of the end of the inlet conveyor belt 2. The distance between the guide plates 3 on both sides of the inlet conveyor belt 2 is adjusted by a guide adjustment knob 41 on the frame 1 to adapt to the conveying of gloves of different specifications and ensure the stability of the conveying process. At the same time, an upper pressing wheel 4 is also arranged above the inlet conveyor belt 2 provided with the guide rod 3. The upper pressing wheel 4 can ensure that the stacked gloves passing through this position are initially pressed and have a relatively flat and suctionable plane. The upper needle suction cup 5 is located at the telescopic end of the needle suction cup moving cylinder 6. The needle suction cup moving cylinder 6 is located on a needle suction cup moving frame body 7. The bottom of the needle suction cup moving frame body 7 is provided with a slider structure and moves horizontally under the action of a needle suction cylinder driving cylinder 11 along a needle cylinder moving slide rail 10 through the slider structure.

[0031] A lower needle suction cup 8 cooperating with the upper needle suction cup 5 is arranged on the path of the upper needle suction cup 5 moving horizontally with the needle suction cup moving frame body 7. The lower needle suction cup 8 is located below the upper needle suction cup 5. A glove mouth support bottom plate 9 is arranged at the position of the lower needle suction cup 8. The glove mouth support bottom plate 9 is a plate body parallel to the horizontal plane, which is provided with a through hole for the lower needle suction cup 8 to extend out, and the glove mouth support bottom plate 9 is located below the upper needle suction cup 5 and below the glove opening plate 12.

[0032] The glove opening plate 12 is located at the telescopic end of a opening cylinder 13, and the two telescopic parts of the opening cylinder 13 are symmetrically arranged, so as to drive the glove opening plates 12 connected to the two telescopic parts to move synchronously relative to each other. The glove opening plate 12 is an L-shaped plate body, which has a round sliding plate body that can be inserted into the glove inlet opened by the upper needle suction cup 5 and the lower needle suction cup 8. The opening cylinder 13 is slidably connected to the support plate translation slide rail 14 through a slider structure. The support plate translation slide rail 14 extends in the conveying direction of the material conveying conveyor belt 2. The conveying direction of the material conveying conveyor belt 2 is the same as the horizontal moving direction of the upper needle suction cup 5. The movement of the opening cylinder 13 on the support plate translation slide rail 14 is realized under the action of a support rod translation driving cylinder 15. The support rod translation driving cylinder 15 is fixed on a translation cylinder fixing plate 16. The top end of the translation cylinder fixing plate 16 is connected to a waste removal support 35 through a plate body adjustment rod 34. The other end of the translation cylinder fixing plate 16 is connected to the frame 1 through an auxiliary fixing support 42. The waste removal support 35 is also fixed on the frame 1.

[0033] After the glove stretching plate 12 is inserted into the glove inlet and stretches the glove, under the action of the support rod translation drive cylinder 15, it translates along the support plate translation slide rail 14 to the position where the glove rotating plate 24 is located, and the glove is put on the hand mold on the glove rotating plate 24 from the glove inlet.

[0034] The initial state of the glove rotating plate 24 is set parallel to the horizontal plane. Hand molds corresponding to the glove stretching plate 12 are arranged at the ends of the glove rotating plate 24. The number of hand molds is at least two, and the hand molds are arranged at two corresponding ends of the glove rotating plate 24. Shaft bodies are arranged on both sides of the glove rotating plate 24. The shaft bodies are connected to the frame 1 through bearings and bearing seats. A flipping synchronous wheel 23 is fixed at the end of the shaft body of the glove rotating plate 24. The flipping synchronous wheel 23 is connected to the flipping drive motor 21 through a flipping synchronous belt 22. The flipping drive motor 21 is installed at the bottom of the frame 1 or on a horizontal base. A turning rod 26 is arranged at one end of the glove rotating plate 24 far from the glove stretching plate 12. The turning rod 26 is located above and below the glove rotating plate 24, and approaches or moves away from the glove rotating plate 24 under the action of the turning rod retraction cylinder 25. The turning rod 26 includes a turning optical rod 37 extending in the direction of the glove rotating plate 24. A turning L plate 38 is arranged on the turning optical rod 37. The turning L plate 38 is attached to the glove rotating plate 24, and an L plate chute 39 for realizing the sliding of the turning L plate 38 is arranged on the glove rotating plate 24.

[0035] The bottom of the turning rod retraction cylinder 25 is provided with a slider structure and moves along the turning rod moving slide rails 36 arranged in parallel on both sides of the frame 1 under the drive of the turning drive cylinder 27. The hand molds on the glove rotating plate 24 are aligned with the reverse glove rods 28 at the end far from the glove stretching plate 12. The reverse glove rods 28 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the rods on the hand molds, and the lengths of the rods in the reverse glove rods are distributed in the same way as the lengths of the human fingers.

[0036] The reverse glove rods 28 are slidably connected to the reverse glove rod linear slide rails 33 through slider structures. The reverse glove rod linear slide rails 33 are located on the reverse glove rod fixing plate 43. The reverse glove rod fixing plate 43 is fixed to the frame through fixing plate support rods 44. The reverse glove rods 28 move along the reverse glove rod linear slide rails 33 on the reverse glove rod fixing plate 43 through slider structures under the action of the reverse glove rod moving cylinder 32.

[0037] Above the discharge conveyor belt 31, a glove upper pressing cylinder 30 corresponding to the reverse glove rods 28 is arranged. The telescopic end of the glove upper pressing cylinder 30 has a pressing plate in contact with the reverse glove rods 28. The glove upper pressing cylinder 30 can be fixed on the frame formed by the fixing plate support rods 44 or on the reverse glove rod fixing plate 43.

[0038] The discharge conveyor belt 31 is connected to the frame 1 through a conveyor belt slide 45. The conveyor belt slide 45 can be a screw slide, a standard belt slide, etc., and it can drive the discharge conveyor belt 31 to lift relative to the frame 1 to cooperate with the pressing cylinder 30 on the glove, so as to clamp the glove on the reverse glove rod 28 and retain the glove on the discharge conveyor belt 31.

[0039] The waste rejection brackets 35 on the frame 1 are respectively located on the moving paths of the glove spreading plate 12 and the reverse glove rod 28, and the waste rejection brackets 35 are provided with a waste rejection mechanism 17. The waste rejection mechanism 17 includes a waste rejection slide 18. A jaw lifting cylinder 19 is driven on the waste rejection slide 18. The telescopic end of the jaw lifting cylinder 19 is connected with a waste rejection jaw 20, and the waste rejection jaw 20 can clamp the gloves located on the glove spreading plate 12 and the reverse glove rod 28. The waste rejection mechanism 17 cooperates with a visual recognition system. When the visual recognition system recognizes that the gloves located on the glove spreading plate 12 and the reverse glove rod 28 have defects, it transmits a signal to the waste rejection mechanism 17 through a controller. After receiving the above signal, the waste rejection mechanism 17 performs the action of rejecting the defective gloves.

[0040] Embodiment 2

[0041] As Figures 5 to 7 shown, a horizontal glove turning machine is provided with a single hand mold on the glove rotating plate 24, and the hand mold is located at both ends of the glove rotating plate 24. The structures and connection relationships of the remaining parts are the same as those described in any one of the foregoing embodiments. To avoid cumbersome writing, they will not be described herein again.

[0042] Embodiment 3

[0043] A horizontal glove machine, wherein upper needle suction cups 5 and lower needle suction cups 8 are arranged at the end of the feeding conveyor belt 2. The upper needle suction cups 5 and the lower needle suction cups 8 approach or move away from each other under the action of their respective needle suction cup moving cylinders 6, so as to realize the opening of the glove inlet of a single glove fed by the feeding conveyor belt 2 through the upper needle suction cups 5 and the lower needle suction cups 8, facilitating the insertion of the glove spreading plate 12. In the present application, the upper needle suction cups 5 and the lower needle suction cups 8 are both fixedly connected to the frame 1 through brackets. The structures and connection relationships of the remaining parts are the same as those described in any one of the foregoing embodiments. To avoid cumbersome writing, they will not be described herein again.

[0044] On the basis of the above embodiments, the present application further describes in detail the technical features involved and the functions and roles played by these technical features in the present application to help those skilled in the art fully understand the technical solution of the present application and reproduce it.

[0045] Taking the structure described in Embodiment 1 as an example, the frame 1 described in the present application is used to fix the carried functional units and place them on a horizontal plane or a horizontal base.

[0046] The feeding conveyor belt 2 described in the present application is used to carry stacks of gloves and move the stacked gloves in the direction of the upward needle suction cup 5. During the movement of the stacked gloves along with the feeding conveyor belt 2, they are limited by the guiding plates 3 on both sides of the feeding conveyor belt 2 and the upper pressing wheel 4 on the top of the feeding conveyor belt 2, ensuring that the stacked gloves have a relatively flat contact surface for suction by the upper needle suction cup 5 and are stably sucked up by the upper needle suction cup 5.

[0047] The upper needle suction cup 5 moves relative to the stacked gloves under the action of the needle suction cup moving cylinder 6, and after sucking the gloves, it moves upward with the needle suction cup moving cylinder 6 until the sucked gloves do not interfere with the stacked gloves and then stops. Subsequently, the needle suction cup moving frame 7 at the position of the needle suction cup moving cylinder 6 slides along the needle cylinder moving slide rail 10 horizontally arranged in the conveying direction of the feeding conveyor belt 2 under the action of the needle suction cup driving cylinder 11.

[0048] The upper needle suction cup 5 moves to the position of the lower needle suction cup 8 and stops under the action of the needle suction cup driving cylinder 11 and the needle cylinder moving slide rail 10. The lower needle suction cup 8 can be fixed on the frame 1 or installed on the driving cylinder on the frame 1. The lower needle suction cup 8 and the upper needle suction cup 5 jointly act to suck the gloves. When the upper needle suction cup 5 and the lower needle suction cup 8 move away from each other, the entrance of the sucked gloves is pulled open by the mutually separated upper needle suction cup 5 and lower needle suction cup 8.

[0049] At this time, the spreading cylinder 13 drives the glove spreading plate 12 to move along the support plate translation slide rail 14 in the direction of the upper needle suction cup 5 and the lower needle suction cup 8 under the action of the support rod translation driving cylinder 15. During the above movement process, the smooth end of the glove spreading plate 12 will enter the opened glove entrance to realize the spreading of the gloves under the action of the paired glove spreading plates 12.

[0050] After the glove spreading plate 12 spreads the gloves, it will move along the support plate translation slide rail 14 in the direction of the glove rotating plate 24 with the spreading cylinder 13 under the action of the support rod translation driving cylinder 15.

[0051] The glove rotating plate 24 is arranged parallel to the horizontal plane in the initial state, and two or more hand molds are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the glove rotating plate 24. During the movement of the glove spreading plate 12 towards the glove rotating plate 24, the opened glove entrance is put on the hand mold, and the gloves are separated from the glove spreading plate 12 under the action of the hand mold.

[0052] After the glove is put on the hand mold, the glove rotating plate 24 rotates 180° under the action of the flipping synchronous wheel 23, the flipping synchronous belt 22, and the flipping driving motor 21, so that the hand mold with the glove rotates until it is flush with the reverse glove rod 28 and then stops. The reverse glove rod 28 is composed of the same number of rod bodies as human fingers, and the distribution mode of the rod bodies is the same as the length distribution of human fingers. The turning rod retraction cylinders 25 on both sides of the frame 1 of the glove rotating plate 24 start to act, so that the turning rod retraction cylinder steel 25 drives the turning rod 26 to move towards the direction of the glove rotating plate 24, and the turning rods 26 are respectively located above and below the glove rotating plate 24.

[0053] The turning rod 26 has a turning optical rod 37 connected to the turning rod retraction cylinder 25. A turning L plate 38 is fixedly connected to the turning optical rod 37. The turning L plate 38 can cooperate with the glove inlet at its position, and the part of the turning L plate 38 entering the glove inlet drives the glove to be taken off from the hand mold of the glove rotating plate 24 and enter the corresponding reverse glove rod 28. The reverse glove rod 28 is a thin-walled hollow tube body, and a guide rod with a smooth end face is arranged inside it. The smooth end face of the guide rod extends out of the inside of the reverse glove rod 28 and can be in contact with the corresponding hand mold (at the middle finger position) so as to guide the glove from the reverse side of the glove rotating plate 24 to the reverse glove rod 28. The bottom end of the guide rod can be connected to the thin-walled hollow tube body through a spring structure or can move relative to the thin-walled hollow tube body under the action of a telescopic cylinder.

[0054] In the above process, in order to realize the horizontal movement of the turning L plate 38, the turning rod retraction cylinder 25 needs to be arranged on the turning rod moving slide rails 36 on both sides of the frame 1, and the turning rod retraction cylinder 25 is driven by the turning driving cylinder 27 to slide along the turning rod moving slide rails 36.

[0055] After the glove is put on the reverse glove rod 28 under the action of the turning L plate 38, the reverse glove rod 28 will move along the reverse glove rod linear slide rail 33 to the upper part of the discharge conveyor belt 31 under the action of the reverse glove rod moving cylinder 32. The glove upper pressing cylinder 30 arranged at the upper position of the discharge conveyor belt 31 and the discharge conveyor belt 31 can clamp the reverse glove rod 28 when approaching each other. Under the clamping of the above two, the glove put on the reverse glove rod 28 is left on the discharge conveyor belt 31. The discharge conveyor belt 31 is reset under the action of the conveyor belt slide 45, the glove upper pressing cylinder 30 is reset, and the reverse glove rod 28 is reset under the action of the reverse glove rod moving cylinder 32. When the number of gloves stacked on the discharge conveyor belt 31 reaches the set value, the discharge conveyor belt 31 acts to convey the stacked gloves thereon to the next process equipment connected thereto for the next step of glove processing.

[0056] In the above process, as a supplementary solution, visual detection devices 29 may be respectively provided above the reverse glove rod 28 on the path where the glove spreading plate 12 conveys to the glove rotating plate 24 in this application. The visual detection device 29 includes a camera for visual detection. The camera for visual detection captures the glove images passing through the position where it is located and transmits the above images to the image analysis software, which can perform image analysis on the front and reverse sides of the glove to determine whether there are defects affecting sales on the glove. If there are defects affecting sales, the rejection mechanism 17 at the above position starts to work. The waste rejection slide 18 drives the jaw lifting cylinder 19 to make the waste rejection jaws 20 clamp the gloves on the glove spreading plate 12 and the reverse glove rod 28. In this application, the rejection mechanism 17 can also grab the gloves that are not accurately sleeved onto the hand mold of the glove rotating plate 24 and the reverse glove rod 28, and place the above gloves in the placement area on one side of the frame 1, avoiding the situation where the gloves cannot be sleeved onto the hand mold of the glove rotating plate 24 and the reverse glove rod 28 due to the offset of the glove placement position, the presence of connecting wires inside the glove resulting in an irregular glove shape, etc., and improving the processing efficiency of the gloves. For the case of two or more workstations, since the rejection mechanism 17 will cause the problem of inconsistent stacking quantities of gloves in one or more workstations after rejecting defective products or gloves that are not accurately sleeved, at this time, when the stacking quantity in one workstation reaches the set quantity (for example, 24 pieces), this workstation stops operating; the remaining workstations continue to operate until the stacking quantity on this workstation reaches the set quantity and then stop. The number of the rejection mechanisms 17 described in this application can be set according to the required functions, such as detecting defects and detecting whether the gloves are sleeved in place.

[0057] After the gloves on the glove spreading plate 12 and the reverse glove rod 28 are clamped by the waste rejection jaws 20, the glove spreading plate 12 and the reverse glove rod 28 stop subsequent actions and reset to the initial position, waiting for the feeding of the next glove.

[0058] Repeating the above process can achieve the continuous feeding and reversing of the gloves. The single-station glove turning machine described in Embodiment 2 has the same working process as the working process described in the above paragraph, and will not be elaborated here.

[0059] For Embodiment 3, it is suitable for the case where single gloves are fed in sequence, that is, the feeding conveyor belt 2 conveys single gloves in sequence, and the glove inlet of the single glove faces the end of the feeding conveyor belt 2. When the feeding conveyor belt 2 conveys the single glove to the end, the glove inlet enters between the upper needle suction cup 5 and the lower needle suction cup 8. The upper needle suction cup 5 and the lower needle suction cup 8 respectively contact and suck the glove, and under the action of the needle suction cup moving cylinder 6, the glove inlet is expanded to facilitate the subsequent insertion of the glove spreading plate 12. The subsequent action process of the glove spreading plate 12 refers to Embodiment 1. The above structure is also applicable to the glove turning operation of two or more workstations.

[0060] Finally, although this specification is described in terms of embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style of the specification is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
