Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of sock manufacturing technology, and more specifically to a sock clip taking device. Background Technology

[0002] In the process of sock manufacturing, it is necessary to remove the socks from the sock board so that they can be processed in subsequent production.

[0003] In existing technologies, mechanical grippers are often used to remove socks from a sock board during the sock-removal process. However, due to the thickness of the sock board, as the gripper moves the socks on the board upwards while grasping them, the socks detach from the board become smaller, increasing the gap between the gripper and the outer wall of the sock. This reduces the gripping force of the gripper, hindering efficient sock removal. To address this issue, a sock-gripping device is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a sock gripper device that solves the problem that when socks are detached from the sock board, the gap in the sock tube becomes smaller, and the gap between the mechanical gripper and the outer wall of the sock increases, resulting in a decrease in the force exerted by the mechanical gripper to grasp the sock and hindering efficient sock retrieval.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0008] The present invention includes a base, a clamping component, and an adjusting component. The adjusting component is mounted on the base and includes a sock plate. The clamping component is centrally symmetrical and includes two clamping arms. A first sponge block is respectively installed on the side of the two clamping arms that are close to each other.

[0009] In this invention, the sock plate further comprises a plate and two permanent magnets, the permanent magnets being rotatably connected to the sock plate via a first torsion spring.

[0010] Furthermore, in this invention, each of the two gripping arms is provided with a pushing member on the side that is close to each other, and an electromagnet is provided on the pushing member.

[0011] Furthermore, in this invention, hooks are fixedly connected to the sides of the two gripping arms that are close to each other.

[0012] Furthermore, in this invention, a second sponge block is provided on each side of the two gripping arms that are close to each other. The second sponge block, in combination with the first sponge block, can limit the position of the sock after it is stretched open.

[0013] Furthermore, in this invention, multiple light-emitting plates are respectively provided on both sides of the sock plate, and the multiple light-emitting plates are installed on the outer surface of the plate and the two permanent magnets.

[0015] Furthermore, in this invention, the base is provided with an adjustment knob, which is electrically connected to multiple light-emitting panels and is used to adjust the intensity of the light source of the light-emitting panels.

[0016] Furthermore, in this invention, the base is provided with a rack corresponding to the push frame, the rack is slidably connected to the base via a third torsion spring, and the rack engages with a corresponding adjustment knob.

[0017] In this invention, the gripping arm is further slidably connected to the gripping component via a cylinder.

[0018] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0019] This invention provides a sock clip dispensing device. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages:

[0020] Beneficial effects:

[0021] 1. By incorporating the gripper and the first sponge block, when the gripper moves the sock on the sock board upwards, a gap exists between the sock detached from the board and the board, causing loosening between the gripper and the outer wall of the sock. At this time, the two opposing first sponge blocks on the gripping arm, under their own elasticity, make close contact with the outer wall of the sock, increasing the gripping force of the gripper and facilitating the gripping operation. This solves the problem in the prior art where a gap exists between the sock detached from the board and the board, causing loosening between the gripper and the outer wall of the sock, resulting in reduced gripping force and decreased gripping effect of the gripping arm.

[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] This application provides a sock clamping device that solves the problem of low clamping tightness when gripping socks, thereby achieving efficient sock retrieval.

[0031] The technical solution in this application is to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, and the general idea is as follows:

[0032] like Figures 1-4As shown, a sock clipping device includes a base, a clamping component, and an adjusting component. The adjusting component is mounted on the base and includes a sock plate. The clamping component is centrally symmetrical and includes two clamping arms. The clamping arms are slidably connected to the clamping component via cylinders. Each of the two clamping arms has a first sponge block installed on its side that is close to each other.

[0033] The two opposing first sponge blocks are in close contact with the outer wall of the sock, increasing the gripping force of the clamping member on the sock, thus facilitating the clamping operation of the clamping member on the sock. This solves the problem in the prior art where there is a gap between the sock detached from the sock plate and the sock plate, which causes the clamping member to loosen between itself and the outer wall of the sock, resulting in a reduction in the gripping force of the clamping member on the sock and a decrease in the clamping effect of the clamping arm on the sock.

[0034] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0035] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a sock clipping device includes a base 10, a clamping component 20, and an adjusting component 30. The adjusting component 30 is mounted on the base 10 and includes a sock plate 31. The clamping component 20 is centrally symmetrical and includes two clamping arms 22. The clamping arms 22 are slidably connected to the clamping component 20 via a cylinder 21. A first sponge block 221 is installed on each side of the two clamping arms 22 that are close to each other.

[0036] When using the gripper 20 to grip socks, the distance between the gripping arms 22 is controlled by the cylinder 21, facilitating the gripping arms 22 to grip socks of different thicknesses on the sock plates 31. As the gripper 20 moves upwards while gripping the socks on the sock plate 31, a gap exists between the socks detached from the sock plate 31 and the plate itself, causing loosening between the gripper 20 and the outer wall of the sock. At this time, the first [feature / function] on the gripping arm 22 [is activated / activated]. Under the action of its own elasticity, the two first sponge blocks 221, which are arranged opposite each other, make close contact with the outer wall of the sock, thereby increasing the gripping force of the clamping member 20 on the sock and facilitating the gripping operation of the clamping member 20 on the sock. This solves the problem in the prior art that there is a gap between the sock detached from the sock plate 31 and the sock plate 31, which causes the clamping member 20 to loosen with the outer wall of the sock, resulting in a reduction in the gripping force of the clamping member 20 on the sock and a decrease in the gripping effect of the clamping arm 22 on the sock.

[0037] Furthermore, the sock plate 31 includes a plate and two permanent magnets 32. The permanent magnets 32 are rotatably connected to the sock plate 31 through a first torsion spring. Each of the two gripping arms 22 is provided with a pusher 223 on the side that is close to each other. An electromagnet 224 is provided on the pusher 223. Each of the two gripping arms 22 is fixedly connected with a hook 226 on the side that is close to each other.

[0038] It should be noted that, initially, under the action of the first torsion spring, the two permanent magnets 32 are positioned on the same horizontal plane, and the permanent magnet 32 ​​located on the same side of the gripping arm 22 is matched with the electromagnet 224. The electromagnet 224 generates an attractive force with the corresponding permanent magnet 32, and the generated attractive force is greater than the restoring force of the first torsion spring on the permanent magnet 32. As a result, the two permanent magnets 32 rotate in opposite directions under the action of the electromagnet 224. At this time, the state of the two permanent magnets 32 after rotation is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, after the two permanent magnets 32 rotate, they can spread the socks on the sock plate 31. At this time, the hook 226 and the spread permanent magnets 32 do not interfere with each other. The hook 226 can push the spread socks upward, increase the pushing force in the sock clamping process, and thus further facilitate the sock clamping operation.

[0039] Each of the two gripping arms 22 has a second sponge block 222 on one side that is close to each other. With the setting of the second sponge block 222, when the permanent magnet 32 ​​opens the sock, the second sponge block 222, together with the first sponge block 221, can limit the sock after it is opened.

[0040] Furthermore, light-emitting plates 321 are respectively provided on both sides of the sock plate 31. That is, the light-emitting plates 321 are installed on the outer surface of the plate and the two permanent magnets 32. Through the arrangement of the light-emitting plates 321 on the outer surface of the sock plate 31, a light source can be provided to the inside of the sock, thus facilitating the provision of internal light during sock testing. Under the action of the permanent magnets 32, the sock is stretched, achieving stretching of the sock. At this time, the stretching of the sock can change the light transmittance of the light-emitting plates 321 to the sock, specifically as follows... Figure 3 As shown, this further facilitates the subsequent testing of the transparency and thickness of the stockings. Generally, the denier number represents the thickness and transparency of the stockings. The smaller the denier number, the thinner and more transparent the stockings are. The more durable the stockings are, the higher the denier value is usually. Generally, 40-60 denier is for spring and autumn stockings, and above 60 denier is for winter stockings. Summer stockings generally have a denier number below 20, which are cool, light and thin and have good transparency.

[0041] Furthermore, a push frame 225 is fixedly connected to the end of the pusher 223 near the base 10. An energized electrode 13 is installed on the base 10. The energized electrode 13 is slidably connected to the base 10 through a second torsion spring. An electrode adapted to the energized electrode 13 is provided inside the push frame 225. When the energized electrode 13 contacts the electrode inside the push frame 225, the electromagnet 224 is energized, thereby realizing the attraction operation of the electromagnet 224 on the permanent magnet 32.

[0042] Furthermore, the base 10 is provided with an adjustment knob 11, which is electrically connected to the light-emitting plate 321. The adjustment knob 11 is used to adjust the intensity of the light source of the light-emitting plate 321. The base 10 is provided with a rack 12 corresponding to the push frame 225. The rack 12 is slidably connected to the base 10 through a third torsion spring. The rack 12 meshes with the corresponding adjustment knob 11. It should be noted that when the third torsion spring is set, the elastic force of the third torsion spring is greater than the meshing force between the rack 12 and the adjustment knob 11, so that the rack 12 can return to its original position. Thus, when the socks on the sock plate 31 are detected, the socks can be detected under different light sources, and the sock plate 31 can detect the socks under different light intensities.

[0043] In use, firstly, the CNC-controlled cylinder 21 drives the gripping arm 22 to move until the push frame 225 on the gripping arm 22 is above the corresponding rack 12. Then, the cylinder 21 stops driving. Then, the entire gripping component 20 is controlled to move downward. At this time, the first sponge block 221 and the second sponge block 222 on the gripping arm 22 pull the socks on the sock plate 31, thereby realizing the stretching operation of the first sponge block 221 and the second sponge block 222 on the socks on the sock plate 31, which facilitates the detection of socks.

[0044] As the gripping arm 22 pulls the first sponge block 221 and the second sponge block 222 to stretch the sock, the push frame 225 on the gripping arm 22 pushes the rack 12. Since the rack 12 is engaged with the adjusting knob 11, the push frame 225 pushes the rack 12, and the rack 12 can further control the rotation of the adjusting knob 11. The adjusting knob 11 is electrically connected to the light-emitting plate 321. Therefore, during the rotation of the adjusting knob 11, the adjusting knob 11 controls the brightness of the light-emitting plate 321, thereby realizing the detection of socks under different brightness levels and improving the accuracy of the sock detection process.

[0045] At the same time, when the electrode inside the push frame 225 comes into contact with the energized electrode 13, the electromagnet 224 is energized. At this time, the two permanent magnets 32 on the sock plate 31 open the sock. The magnetic force generated between the electromagnet 224 and the permanent magnet 32 ​​is greater than the torsional force of the permanent magnet 32 ​​when it is rotated and connected to the adjusting member 30 through the first torsion spring, as well as the squeezing force of the first sponge block 221 and the second sponge block 222 on the permanent magnet 32. This achieves light transmittance under different light source intensities inside the sock, which facilitates the sock detection operation. The first sponge block 221 and the second sponge block 222 limit the sock, effectively solving the problem that the sock pops out of the sock plate 31 under its own elasticity during the sock opening process, which makes sock detection inconvenient.

[0046] It should be noted that by setting the height of the rack 12 to be higher than the height of the energized electrode 13, the light-emitting plate 321 can be controlled to light up before the sock is stretched, so as to perform light-emitting detection when the sock is not stretched, and further realize the detection when the sock is attached to the sock plate 31.

[0047] After the test is completed, the hook 226 on the gripping arm 22 rises as the gripping arm 22 moves upward. When the push frame 225 disengages from the energized electrode 13, the electromagnet 224 no longer attracts the permanent magnet 32. As a result, the permanent magnet 32 ​​returns to its original position under the action of the first torsion spring, and the sock returns to its position to fit the sock plate 31. At this time, the hook 226 is located between the sock and the sock plate 31. As the gripping arm 22 moves upward, the hook 226 pushes the sock, which facilitates the sock removal operation after the test.

[0048] In summary, compared with existing technologies, it has the following beneficial effects:

[0049] 1. By setting up the clamping component and the first sponge block, the first sponge block set on the clamping arm increases the clamping force of the clamping component on the sock under its own elasticity. This solves the problem in the prior art that there is a gap between the sock and the sock plate after the sock is detached, which causes the clamping component to loosen between itself and the outer wall of the sock, resulting in a reduction in the clamping force of the clamping component on the sock and a decrease in the clamping effect of the clamping arm on the sock.

[0050] 2. By setting up electromagnets and corresponding permanent magnets, the socks are stretched and gripped during the gripping process, and hooks are set on the gripping components to push the stretched socks upwards, increasing the pushing force during the gripping process and further facilitating the gripping operation.

[0051] 3. By setting the second sponge block, when the permanent magnet stretches the sock, the second sponge block, in conjunction with the first sponge block, can limit the sock's position after it is stretched.

[0052] 4. By using the rack and pinion mechanism in conjunction with the adjustment knob, when the socks are being gripped and stretched, the socks on the sock board can be detected under different light sources, enabling the sock board to detect socks under different light intensities.
