Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of knitting, and particularly to an automatic bundling system for a flat knitting machine. Background Art

[0002] A flat knitting machine refers to a flat weft knitting machine controlled by a computer, including a glove knitting machine that knits in a flat knitting manner.

[0003] The applicant has developed and applied for a series of related patent applications for automatically sorting and stacking the knitted fabrics, such as "CN113604954A An Automatic Sorting System for a Flat Knitting Machine", etc. On this basis, through further research and development, the applicant automatically bundles the stacked fabrics to achieve the automated production of all processes such as knitting, stacking and sorting, and bundling of the fabrics.

[0004] Through preliminary retrieval, the applicant found that Zhejiang Baixiang Technology Co., Ltd. has applied for "CN113911426A A Glove Automatic Bundling Machine", which mainly discloses that an elastic band roller can penetrate out of a sliding seat to provide an elastic band for bundling, and a hook wire assembly arranged on the sliding seat, which is driven by a turntable to hook and expand the elastic band, so as to bundle the stacked gloves.

[0005] The applicant believes that the above-mentioned disclosed patent has the following disadvantages:

[0006] First of all, the elastic band feeding device cannot handle the elastic band loops: when a bundle of elastic band loops is directly sleeved on the roller, the elastic band loops are in an interleaved and stacked state, which is not conducive to the hook wire assembly to hook; if the elastic band loops are sleeved on the roller one by one manually, it is actually equivalent to manually bundling the stacked gloves.

[0007] Secondly, the hook heads of all hook wire assemblies need to accurately position the through grooves on the roller to ensure that each hook head can hook the elastic band loop; at the same time, the hook wire assembly is divided into a hook wire strip and a release strip, with a complex structure, and the spring pressing piece bears all the forces, and its own properties are likely to cause metal fatigue and lose elasticity, and it may also fall off from the hook wire strip and the release strip; the hook head of the hook wire strip needs to ensure that the elastic band loop does not come off during hook wire, and also needs to ensure that there is no excessive resistance during wire release to prevent the release strip from being unable to release the elastic band loop.

[0008] Finally, pushing the gloves by a push plate is likely to cause the fingers of the gloves to bend, and according to the disclosed solution, only the glove cuffs can be bundled, which is not flexible and comprehensive enough.

[0009] Therefore, the inventor further studies this and develops an automatic bundling system for a flat knitting machine, and this case is thus generated. Summary of the Invention

[0010] The object of the present invention is to provide an automatic bundling system for a flat knitting machine, which can automatically bundle the knitted fabric to improve production efficiency.

[0011] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0012] An automatic bundling system for a flat knitting machine, comprising

[0013] a bundling device, the bundling device includes a plurality of loop expanding members and a plurality of guiding components. Each loop expanding member moves on the same plane. The loop expanding member is pivotally connected to the moving seat. The guiding component includes a guiding member and a limiting member. The guiding member guides the moving path of the moving seat. The loop expanding member is restricted by the limiting member during the movement to maintain the state or swing, so that the loop expanding members approach each other or separate from each other during the movement;

[0014] a loop feeding device, the loop feeding device drives the elastic loops to be separated one by one through the rotation of a plurality of screws, and guides them to the loop expanding members through the guiding rods;

[0015] a pushing device, the pushing device pushes the stacked fabric into the expanded elastic loop, and sends the fabric away after the bundling is completed.

[0016] Further, the loop expanding member is a swing rod structure and is pivotally connected to the moving seat. A reset member is further arranged between the loop expanding member and the moving seat. The reset member makes the top end of the loop expanding member always tend to move to one side; the moving seat moves on the base, and the guiding component is arranged on the base.

[0017] Further, the guiding member is a linear guide rail or a chute; the driving mechanism includes a gear-rack drive, a ball screw drive driven by a loop expanding motor, or a cylinder drive, a hydraulic cylinder drive.

[0018] Further, the limiting member includes a first limiting member and a second limiting member. The first limiting member is a linear convex structure and is located on one side of the guiding member. The second limiting member is arranged in the middle of the base. There is a gap between the first limiting member and the second limiting member;

[0019] When the moving seat moves to the center of the base, the bottom ends of the loop expanding members abut against the second limiting member, the top ends of the loop expanding members are closed to each other, and the elastic loop is sleeved on each loop expanding member;

[0020] When the moving seat moves to the outside of the base, the bottom ends of the loop expanding members slide over the surface of the first limiting member and keep the top ends in a relatively expanded state. When the bottom ends of the loop expanding members fall from the surface of the first limiting member, the elastic loop detaches from the top ends of the loop expanding members.

[0021] Furthermore, the ring supply device includes two screws arranged in parallel, and the screws are driven to rotate by a ring supply motor; the relative position of the first screw in the screw is fixed, and the distance between the two screws can be changed by adjusting the relative position of the second screw in the screw, and the spiral groove on the screw can accommodate the embedding of a single elastic ring, and the elastic rings are separated one by one by arranging bundles of elastic rings on the screw and embedding them into the continuous grooves of the spiral groove as the screw rotates, and detaching from the end of the screw; a guide rod and an induction switch are arranged above the screw, and when the detached elastic ring is sensed by the induction switch, the screw stops rotating.

[0022] Furthermore, the first screw rod is arranged on the fixed base, the second screw rod is arranged on the movable base, a wrench is pivotally connected to the fixed base, a connecting rod is pivotally connected to the wrench, and the other end of the connecting rod is connected to the movable base.

[0023] The movable base is moved by turning the wrench, thereby changing the distance between the two screws. When the distance between the two screws becomes smaller, it is convenient to insert multiple elastic rings. After the movable base is reset by the wrench, the elastic rings are kept tight and convenient to be embedded in the spiral groove.

[0024] Further, the pushing device comprises

[0025] Rotating receiving mechanism: the component of the rotating receiving mechanism for carrying gloves is a rotating plate, which is arranged outside the blanking port of the glove machine. The rotating plate can complete translation and rotation actions by linkage with the motor;

[0026] The pushing mechanism includes a pushing plate, which is relatively located above the rotating plate and cooperates with the movement of the rotating plate to have lifting and translation movements.

[0027] Furthermore, the pushing plate of the pushing mechanism is arranged on the lifting rod, and the lifting rod is lifted and lowered by a gear rack structure; the lifting rod is arranged on a slide rail, and the slide rail cooperates with a roller structure to achieve translation.

[0028] Further, the rotating receiving mechanism includes

[0029] A rotating plate, on which the stacked gloves are placed;

[0030] The rotating table is arranged under the rotating plate and can be telescopically moved relative to the rotating plate.

[0031] The rotating control slide plate is arranged on the receiving platform and can translate relative to the receiving platform, and drives the rotating plate and the rotating table to move together when translating.

[0032] In order to bundle the stacked gloves, the bottom of the gloves should be suspended in the air. Once the gloves are suspended in the air, they are prone to drooping or falling. Therefore, the gloves at the bottom are first supported by a rotating table. After the rotating table and the gloves are bundled together with elastic bands, the rotating table can be retracted.

[0033] Furthermore, the rotating table can rotate on the rotating control slide plate, and when the rotating table rotates, the rotating plate rotates accordingly.

[0034] Furthermore, an anti-skid layer is provided on the rotating plate, and the anti-skid layer is located between the rotating plate and the stacked gloves.

[0035] Furthermore, the rotating table and the rotating control slide are linked via a rotating gear and a control rack, the rotating gear is arranged on the rotating control slide, and the control rack is fixed to the rotating table.

[0036] Furthermore, a control pin is arranged on the outer side of the rotating control slide plate or the rotating plate, and the control pin is driven by the limiting groove on the lifting rod to make the rotating control slide plate translate.

[0037] Furthermore, the push plate is provided with a hook, which is used to receive the elastic ring guided out by the guide rod, and the elastic ring is sleeved onto the gathered expanding ring member under the drive of the push plate.

[0038] After adopting the above scheme, the present invention has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0039] 1. In the process of providing elastic rings, it is ensured that the elastic rings will not be entangled or twisted, and the continuous spiral groove of the screw can separate the bundled elastic rings one by one;

[0040] 2. During the ring expansion and bundling process, ensure that the ring expansion piece has sufficient rigidity and stability, and will not be affected even when the elastic ring is expanded sufficiently;

[0041] 3. The platform for receiving and fixing the fabric is flexible enough and has the ability to move at multiple coordinate angles. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0072] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments

[0073] As shown in the figure, an automatic bundling system for a horizontal knitting machine includes a bundling device 1, a coiling device 2, and a pushing device 3

[0074] The bundling device 1 (the elastic band 14 is marked in the bundling device), includes a base 13, a driving mechanism is arranged on one side of the base 13, and an elastic band expanding member 11 for expanding the elastic band 14, a moving seat 12 for driving the elastic band expanding member 11 to move, and a guiding assembly for guiding the movement of the elastic band expanding member 11 are arranged on the other side

[0075] Taking the elastic band expanding member 11 as a four-group swing rod structure, the guiding member as a linear sliding groove 131, the reset member as a reset spring 121, and the elastic band as an elastic band 14 for knitting gloves as an example for specific description

[0076] The guiding component includes a guiding member and a limiting member. The guiding member is four straight chute grooves 131 distributed on the base 13, forming an X-shaped distribution. The limiting member is divided into a first limiting member 132 and a second limiting member 133. The first limiting member 132 is a linear convex structure and is located on one side of the chute groove 131. The second limiting member 133 is arranged in the middle of the base 13 and is a boss structure, and the height of the second limiting member 133 is relatively higher than that of the first limiting member 132. At the same time, there is a gap between the first limiting member 132 and the second limiting member 133. The first limiting member 132 also forms an X-shaped distribution around the second limiting member 133.

[0077] The driving mechanism mainly drives the gear 134 to rotate through a motor, and the gear 134 drives the rack to translate. The moving seat 12 is linked with the rack through the chute groove 131 and is guided by the chute groove 131.

[0078] The ring expanding member 11 is pivotally connected to the moving seat 12, and its pivotal connection position is close to the bottom end. At the same time, relative to above the pivotal connection position, it is connected to the moving seat 12 through a return spring 121, so that the ring expanding member 11 has the ability to swing and reset.

[0079] Preferably, the top end of the ring expanding member 11 is designed into a stepped structure, and it only needs to ensure that the rubber band 14 can be smoothly put on and detached during the swinging process of the ring expanding member 11. The bottom end of the ring expanding member 11 is designed as an arc structure to ensure that when the ring expanding member 11 moves along with the moving seat 12, it can cooperate with the first limiting member 132 and the second limiting member 133 to perform the above functions while sliding better and reducing the friction force.

[0080] The rubber band supply device (the rubber band 26 is marked in the rubber band supply device) includes two parallel and vertically arranged screw rods. The bottom of one screw rod is directly linked with the motor shaft of the motor 27, and the other screw rod is linked with the left screw rod through a transmission mechanism. That is, when the motor 27 rotates, both screw rods rotate simultaneously. A guiding rod 28 and a micro switch 29 are arranged above the screw rods. When the detached rubber band 26 touches the trigger rod of the micro switch 29, the screw rods stop rotating, and the rubber band 26 disengages from the screw rods along the strip-shaped guiding rod 28. Here, the end of the guiding rod 28 is a triangular structure but the overall width is smaller than the diameter of the rubber band, so that the rubber band can be put on the mechanism in the next step when it falls and will not be unable to disengage from the guiding rod 28.

[0081] Among them, the first screw rod 21 is arranged above the electrode. The first screw rod 21 is arranged on the fixed base 23 and can rotate relative to the fixed base 23. The other screw rod is the second screw rod 22. The second screw rod 22 is arranged on the movable base 24. The movable base 24 is arranged in the fixed base 23 through a sliding rod. At the same time, the second screw rod 22 also needs to be able to rotate relative to the movable base 24.

[0082] Specifically, a wrench 25 is pivotally connected to the fixed base 23, a connecting rod 251 is pivotally connected to the wrench 25, and the other end of the connecting rod 251 is connected to the movable base 24; by pulling the wrench 25, the movable base 24 moves relative to the fixed base 23, thereby changing the distance between the two screws. When the distance between the two screws becomes smaller, it is convenient to put on a plurality of rubber bands 26. After the movable base 24 is reset by the wrench 25, the rubber bands 26 are kept taut and convenient to be embedded in the spiral grooves.

[0083] In order to have a rotational linkage between the two screws, a transmission mechanism such as a gear set or a gear chain can be used for linkage.

[0084] When a gear set is used for linkage, a first gear 211 and a second gear 221 are respectively arranged at the bottom ends of the first screw 21 and the second screw 22. The first gear 211 is linked through a first movable rod 232 and an intermediate gear 231, the intermediate gear 231 is linked with the second gear 221, and the first movable rod 232 enables the intermediate gear 231 to always mesh between the first gear 211 and the second gear 221.

[0085] When a gear chain is used for linkage, a second movable rod 233 is arranged at the bottom of the fixed base 23; one end of the second movable rod 233 is connected to a spring 234 arranged at the bottom of the fixed base 23, and a small gear 235 is arranged at the other end. The small gear 235 is linked with the chain; when the movable base 24 moves, the second movable rod 233 changes the relative position of the small gear 235 under the action of the spring 234, so that the chain is always kept in a tensioned state. In this embodiment, the gear rack can be replaced by a transmission wheel and a transmission belt.

[0086] Each spiral groove on each screw can and can only accommodate the embedding of a single rubber band 26. The distance between the first screw 21 and the second screw 22 is adjusted to be smaller by the wrench 25. After a bundle of rubber bands 26 is sleeved on the top ends of the screws, the distance between the two screws is restored, so that the rubber bands 26 are in a taut state. The driving motor 27 drives the first screw 21 and the second screw 22 to rotate, driving the rubber bands 26 on the screws to transfer rotation between the two screws, and during the rotation, the rubber bands 26 are successively embedded into the spiral grooves of the two screws. When it is almost close to the bottom, all the rubber bands 26 are embedded into the spiral grooves. At this time, the motor 27 is controlled to reverse, so that the rubber bands 26 rise until they touch the induction switch at the top of the screws and the screws stop rotating. At this time, the rubber bands enter the next step along the layout path of the guide rod 28 to prepare for bundling.

[0087] If directly in this embodiment, the rubber bands 26 are sleeved to the bottom of the screws, as long as the length of the spiral grooves on the screws is sufficient, the rubber bands 26 can be divided into individual circles one by one during the rising process, and at this time, there is no need to let the motor 27 reverse for conveying.

[0088] The pushing device includes a rotating receiving mechanism for stacking and transporting gloves, and a pushing mechanism for pushing and pressing gloves, and the two work together to cooperate with the strapping device 1.

[0089] Among them, the rotating receiving mechanism includes a rotating plate 311, a rotating table 312, a rotating control slide plate 313, and a receiving platform 314. The rotating plate 311 is used to receive the knitted gloves. In order to prevent the gloves from shifting during movement or rotation, an anti-slip sheet 3111 and an arc-shaped anti-slip plate 3112 are arranged on the rotating plate 311. The anti-slip sheet 3111 and the arc-shaped anti-slip plate 3112 are arranged in parallel. Other components with similar functional structures can replace the above-mentioned anti-slip structure.

[0090] The rotating table 312 is arranged under the rotating plate 311, and mainly has the functions of telescopic translation relative to the rotating plate 311 and the rotating control slide plate 313, and driving the rotating plate 311 to rotate. The bottom of the gloves is suspended in the air for convenient bundling, but when one end of the gloves is suspended in the air, it is easy to cause sagging or falling. Therefore, the rotating table 312 with a telescopic function can first support the bottom of the gloves through the rotating table 312, and then retract the rotating table 312 after bundling the rotating table 312 and the gloves together with the rubber band. The rotation function allows the gloves to turn around and be bundled again after a bundling is completed.

[0091] The relative movement and rotation between the rotating table 312 and the rotating control slide 313 are realized by the rotating gear 3131 and the control rack 3121. The rotating gear 3131 is arranged on the rotating control slide 313, and is driven by the small rotating gear 3131 on the motor shaft driven by the stepping motor. The control rack 3121 is fixed to the rotating table 312 and meshes with the rotating gear 3131. The two sides of the rotating plate 311 are wrapped outside the rotating table 312. A bearing 315 is arranged between one side of the rotating plate 311 and one side of the rotating table 312. The bearing 315 is used to assist the rotating table 312 to translate relative to the rotating plate 311. The rotating plate 311, the rotating table 312, and the rotating gear 3131 can be connected by a main bolt 3133, and the tightness can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0092] A strip groove 3122 is provided in the middle of the rotating table 312 for the main bolt 3133 to pass through, and the length of the strip groove 3122 is the translation stroke of the rotating table 312; when the rotating table 312 translates under the action of the control rack 3121, when the main bolt 3133 moves relatively to the end of the strip groove 3122, the rotating gear 3131 can no longer drive the control rack 3121 to translate, and at this time the rotating table 312 can rotate following the rotating gear 3131.

[0093] The rotation control slide plate 313 controls the overall translation of the rotating plate 311 and the rotating table top 312, that is, the rotation control slide plate 313 is arranged on the receiving platform 314 and translates relative to the receiving platform 314. When translating, it drives the rotating plate 311 and the rotating table top 312 to move together. A control pin 3132 is arranged on the side of the rotation control slide plate 313 (in this embodiment, the control pin 3132 extends out from the side of the receiving platform 314). After the control pin 3132 is sleeved into the limit groove 3221 on the lifting rod 322, the rotation control slide plate 313 will translate along with the lifting rod 322.

[0094] The pressing mechanism includes a pressing plate 321 and a lifting rod 322. The pressing plate 321 is located above the rotating plate 311 relatively. The main acting part of the pressing plate 321 is an L-shaped structure, that is, the vertical part can be used for the pushing action, and the horizontal part is used for the pressing action; the connecting part of the pressing plate 321 is connected to the lifting rod 322.

[0095] One side of the lifting rod 322 is a rack structure, and the lifting is realized through a gear-rack structure. The bottom of the lifting rod 322 is connected to the slide rail 323. Both sides of the slide rail 323 are clamped by rollers on the side wall of the glove machine. When moving, the slide rail 323 and the lifting rod 322 move together. In order to increase the stability, a slide rod 324 is arranged above the slide rail 323, and a connecting piece is arranged on the back of the lifting rod 322 to be sleeved with the slide rod 324 and slide along the slide rod 324.

[0096] A hook 3211 is arranged on the side of the pressing plate 321 opposite to the bundling device 1. The hook 3211 is used to receive the rubber band loop led out by the guiding rod 28. The rubber band loop can be sleeved on the expanding ring parts 11 gathered below under the drive of the pressing plate 321.

[0097] The process of expanding the rubber band loop is as follows:

[0098] The four moving seats 12 are moved to the center of the base 13 through the driving mechanism. The bottom ends of the expanding ring parts 11 abut against the second limiting part 133. Due to the existence of the pivoting position, the top ends of the expanding ring parts 11 are closed to each other. At this time, it is very easy to sleeve the rubber band loop 14 on each expanding ring part 11. At the same time, it is necessary to consider that the tops of the expanding ring parts 11 cannot be overly closed to prevent the rubber band loop 14 from falling off after being sleeved.

[0099] The moving seats 12 move outward to the outside of the base 13, and the bottom ends of the expanding ring parts 11 are disengaged from the restriction of the second limiting part 133. And in the gap between the first limiting part 132 and the second limiting part 133, each expanding ring part 11 expands outward relatively under the action of the return spring 121 to form a certain inclination angle to prevent the rubber band loop 14 from coming off during the expansion process; at this time, the bottom end of the expanding ring part 11 slides to the surface of the first limiting part 132 and is restricted by it. At this time, even under the contraction force of the rubber band loop, the expanding ring part 11 will not rotate back.

[0100] When the bottom end of the loop expanding member 11 falls from the surface of the first limiting member 132, under the contraction force of the rubber band, the top ends of the loop expanding members 11 swing towards the second limiting member 133. At this time, the rubber band automatically disengages from each loop expanding member 11. It is only necessary to convey the stacked fabric into the rubber band 14 during the expansion of the rubber band, and automatic bundling can be completed when the rubber band 14 disengages.

[0101] During operation, the glove is clamped out from the middle cup of the horizontal knitting machine and placed on the anti-slip piece 3111 of the rotating plate 311 (the rotating table surface 312 remains in the extended state). When the set number is stacked, the rotating table surface 312 rotates by 90°, aligning one end of the glove cuff with the bundling device 1. At this time, the loop supply device 2 guides the rubber band from the screw to the hook 3211 of the push and press plate 321; the push and press plate 321 drives the rubber band to the gathered loop expanding members 11 under the drive of the lifting rod 322, sleeving it on, and pressing the glove. The loop expanding members 11 expand the rubber band. After expansion, the rotation control slide plate 313 sends the glove into the expanded rubber band. After the loop expanding member disengages from the first limiting member 132, the tensioned rubber band contracts and bundles onto the cuff of the glove. At this time, the glove is pushed back by the push and press plate 321.

[0102] If bundling is required for the other end, the rotation and expansion / contraction of the rotating table surface 312 are used to complete the bundling of the other end. Finally, the glove is pushed out of the rotating plate 311 to the receiving platform 314 by the push and press plate 321. A conveyor belt is provided on the receiving platform 314 to convey the bundled gloves to the packing link.

[0103] The above are only specific embodiments of the present invention. At the same time, words such as "up, down, left, right, middle" involved in the present invention are only for reference and are not absolutely limited. Any non-substantive modification using the present invention shall fall within the scope of infringement of the protection scope of the present invention.
