Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of konjac sponge production equipment, in particular to an automatic threading and knotting machine. Background Art

[0002] Konjac sponge is a 3D honeycomb structured sponge made from konjac through a special process and water, so its internal structure is more stable. At the same time, because its raw material is konjac fiber, its water absorption and biodegradability are far higher than ordinary sponges, which is more in line with the current environmental protection trend.

[0003] Since the konjac sponge is in a solid state when not soaked in water, it needs to be soaked for a few minutes when used, and then the excess water is squeezed out. Then it can be massaged on the face and the whole body in a circular motion. After use, it can be hung in a cool and ventilated place.

[0004] Therefore, in order to facilitate the hanging of the konjac sponge, it is necessary to thread the sponge after production and tie the threaded rope. However, at present, when the threading and knotting operation is performed on the konjac sponge, it is still necessary to operate manually, and there is no special equipment to complete the overall threading and knotting operation, which will increase the production time of the sponge, thereby affecting the production efficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to design a special device for threading and knotting the konjac sponge.

[0108] The cutting knife 524 is fixedly mounted on the buckle 522 and is located on one side of the wire pulling device 43;

[0109] Working process:

[0110] 1. Preparation for threading: First, pass the rope end on the wire package 42 through the guide wheel 431, and then through the limit wire groove 439 on the wire pulling column 432, control the third cylinder 437 to move the wire pulling head 435 to clamp and fix the wire in the limit wire groove 439, and then the second cylinder 434 works to move the wire end fixed by the wire pulling head 435 to the wire clamp 438, and the rope end can be fixed by the wire clamp 438, and then the wire pulling head 435 is released by the third cylinder 437 to clamp and fix the wire, and then moves a distance to the side of the guide wheel 431;

[0111] Second, threading operation, the fixed cover 411 is lowered under the action of the lifting cylinder 412 to position and fix the konjac sponge transported to the operating platform 3 for feeding and conveying, and then the power piece 445 works to drive the hooking seat 443 to slide on the frame 1, so that the needle end of the hooking needle 441 passes through the konjac sponge until the wire pulling device 43, and the wire pulling line located at the wire pulling device 43 will slide into the wire hooking groove 442 during the forward sliding process of the needle head, and then the power piece 445 drives the fixed rod 444 to slide, so that the front end of the fixed rod 444 fixes the wire pulling line falling into the wire hooking groove 442, thereby fixing the wire pulling line end, and then the wire clamp 438 releases the fixation of the wire head, and the power piece 445 drives the hooking seat 443 to move back, so as to hook the wire pulling line back, and realize the whole threading operation;

[0112] 3. Preparation for winding and knotting: the lifting cylinder 412 drives the fixed cover 411 and the electric telescopic rod 31 to drive the operating platform 3 to move upward synchronously, so that the konjac sponge on the operating platform 3 moves to the height of the unloading conveyor belt 6, and then the power piece 445 drives the hook needle 441 to move directly below the operating platform 3.

When the operating platform 3 rises, it synchronously drives the wire bundling platform 511 thereon to move upward;

[0113] Fourth, winding and knotting, the fourth cylinder 512 drives the open wire tie ring 513 to approach the wire rope. When the wire rope moves into the ring of the wire tie half ring, the wire tie half ring is electrically driven to close, and then the vertical support rod 521 is electrically driven to be parallel, so that the buckle 522 and the wire rope are tightly attached, and then the wire tie ring 513 continues to move a distance to the side of the upper material conveyor belt 2, so that the wire rope is tightly attached to the buckle 522. At this time, the wire rope is convex as a whole. At this time, the buckle 522 can be electrically driven to rotate, driving the wire rope to perform a circle operation. When the buckle 522 rotates 180 degrees, the clamp 523 is in The buckle 522 slowly opens as it continues to rotate. When the buckle 522 rotates 360 degrees, that is, when it rotates one circle to form a circle, the clamp 523 closes to clamp the thread hooking needle 441 and the thread rope at one end of the thread pulling head 435. At this time, the threaded rod is electrically driven to drive the support rod 521 to move toward the side of the thread hooking device 44, driving the clamped thread end to pass through the circle to form a knot. At the same time, when the support rod 521 moves, the cutting knife 524 will cut the end of the thread hooking needle 441 and the thread rope at one end of the thread pulling head 435, so that the knotting operation is completed. At the same time, the movement of the support rod 521 will tighten the knot.

[0114] 5. Unloading. After knotting is completed, the wire hook device 44 and the wire pulling device 43 will be reset, and the bundle coil will continue to move to one side of the upper feeding conveyor belt 2, driving the rope head end to move. At the same time, the fixed cover 411 will move the konjac sponge from the operating platform 3 to the unloading conveyor belt 6 under the toggle of the telescopic cylinder 413, and then the lifting cylinder 412 drives the fixed cover 411 to rise to release the fixation of the konjac sponge, and then the konjac sponge is transported away from the unloading conveyor belt 6, and the rope can slide out from the upper end of the operating platform 3 with the konjac sponge to carry out the unloading operation.
