[0013] The splash guard is equipped with air guide grooves, which are arc-shaped recesses. Air guide rollers are installed inside the air guide grooves and are rotatably connected to the air guide grooves. The air from the air blowing tube will drive the air guide rollers to rotate. The rotating air guide rollers will disperse some air onto the adhesive strip, which will improve the adhesion of the adhesive on the adhesive strip and cause the adhesive strip to harden slightly, but still remain sticky. The undispersed air will flow through the adhesive strip, blowing away the adhesive in that area. This prevents the adhesive from exceeding the flocking adhesion area, reducing contamination of the flocking and improving the success rate of swab use.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of swab flocking and impregnation technology, specifically to an impregnation device for swab flocking. Background Technology
[0002] Flocking and adhesive-impregnating machines utilize the physical properties of like charges repelling and unlike charges attracting. The flocking fibers acquire a negative charge, and when the object to be flocked is placed at zero potential or grounded, the fibers, attracted by the opposite potential, are accelerated vertically to the surface of the object. Because the object is coated with adhesive, the fibers are vertically adhered to the surface without any adhesive coating. Upon contact with the object, the flocking fibers lose their positive potential and are drawn back to the positive pole by the container, preventing waste. Therefore, flocking and adhesive-impregnating machines are widely used in the market. For example, some cotton swabs and wipes are made using these machines. Due to the large volume of use, a large number of flocking machines of varying quality have appeared on the market.
[0003] A crucial step in the flocking process is the glue-dip process, which involves applying glue to the flocking strips. Manual brushing is insufficient to meet the huge market demand, and the quality of manual brushing is inconsistent. We often find that some swabs have significant flock accumulation at both ends, with insufficient flocking at the top leading to inadequate drug absorption. Furthermore, insufficient glue application frequently causes flocking to fall off easily. During use, we also find that swabs from the same batch have varying flock lengths, rendering some unusable and requiring secondary selection. This process is extremely complex, tedious, time-consuming, and labor-intensive. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention provides a glue-impregnation device for flocking swabs, which can effectively solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: The impregnation device includes a support bed, a feeding box on the support bed, a swab track inside the feeding box, an adjustment box on the swab track, a pressure groove assembly on one side of the swab track, an impregnation assembly inside the feeding box, the impregnation assembly being positioned below the swab track, a flocking box on one side of the feeding box, a de-adhesion assembly inside the flocking box, the de-adhesion assembly being slidably connected to the swab track, a flocking frame inside the flocking box, a flocking hydraulic rod on the flocking frame, the flocking hydraulic rod being positioned inside the flocking box, a rotating planting trough inside the flocking frame, and a flocking motor inside the flocking frame. The output end of the flocking motor is connected to the rotating planting trough. When starting operation, the device will... The glue sticks or cotton swabs to be impregnated are placed into the feeding box, then into the adjustment box, where they are arranged in order and smoothly transported to the swab track. From there, they are transported to the pressing assembly for pressing. After pressing, the glue sticks and cotton swabs enter the impregnation assembly for glue application. They then enter the de-glue assembly for surface treatment. Finally, they enter the flocking box and are captured by the flocking frame. The flocking motor inside the frame rotates, causing the rotating planting trough to rotate on the frame for flocking. Once flocking is complete, the swabs are ejected from the impregnation equipment, completing the entire impregnation and flocking process.
[0006] The swab track includes a conveyor motor, the output of which is connected to a conveyor shaft. A flocked track is mounted on the conveyor shaft, which is connected to a transmission shaft via the flocked track. The conveyor shaft, transmission shaft, and feeding box are rotatably connected. Several clamping bars are mounted on the flocked track, each rotatably connected to the track and slidingly contacting the pressing groove assembly. An adjusting box slides against the clamping bars. A material passage is located inside the adjusting box, and feeding rollers are mounted on the passage. These feeding rollers are rotatably connected to the adjusting box. When the adhesive strip enters the adjusting box... The clamping bar will capture the already placed rubber strip, and then the conveyor motor will start, driving the conveyor shaft to rotate. The conveyor shaft will drive the transmission shaft to rotate through the flocked track. The transmission shaft will play a supporting role, and the clamping bar will be sent into the pressing groove assembly. The feeding method of adjustment box and track can effectively avoid problems such as blockage and breakage of rubber strips during feeding. At the same time, the conveyor motor is a stepper motor, which can fully complete the accuracy and integrity of each step in the process of conveying rubber strips.
[0007] The clamping bar includes a mounting block, which is rotatably connected to the flocked track. A clamping slider is mounted on the mounting block and slidably connected to it. A clamping spring is positioned between the clamping slider and the mounting block, with both ends of the spring abutting against the clamping slider and the mounting block respectively. The clamping slider is in slidable contact with a feeding roller, which has a toothed groove. An adjusting box has a vibrating column, and the feeding roller is rotatably connected to the adjusting box via the vibrating column. A vibrating spring is mounted on the vibrating column, embedding itself in the toothed groove and slidably contacting the feeding roller. The clamping slider is in slidable contact with the pressing groove assembly. During the operation of the flocked track... In the process, the mounting block abuts against the flocked track and then moves. During the movement, the mounting block passes through the adjustment box, and the clamping slider on the mounting block abuts against the feeding roller. Then, the flocking motor continues to move, driving the feeding roller to rotate. Under the action of the vibrating spring, the feeding roller will release a rubber strip. One operation is one cycle of the flocking motor. At this time, the rubber strip in the feeding slide will fall onto the already opened mounting block. The feeding gear will release the clamping slider, causing the rubber strip in the clamping slider box to come closer and firmly lock the rubber strip. Then it enters the pressing assembly, where the pressing assembly performs the next operation.
[0008] The grooving assembly includes a sliding rail with a friction slider inside. The friction slider slides in contact with a clamping slider. The friction slider is wedge-shaped. The sliding rail is set on the grooving rail, which is connected to the sliding rail by adjusting bolts. The grooving rail is located inside the feeding box and contains a grooving mold. When the rubber strip enters the sliding rail, the friction slider will press against the clamping slider, causing the clamping slider to release the rubber strip. Under the action of the sliding rail, the posture of the rubber strip is adjusted so that the glue-impregnated end of the rubber strip remains flush. Then, it will enter the grooving rail. To ensure the versatility of the grooving position, the position can be adjusted by adjusting bolts. The rubber strip entering the grooving rail will be grooved by the grooving mold. Grooved rubber strips are easier to impregnate, improving the success rate of impregnation and also increasing the adhesion of the glue to the rubber strip.
[0009] The grooving mold includes a grooving motor. A first grooving belt and a second grooving belt are mounted on the output end of the motor. The motor is connected to a grooving block via the first belt and to a secondary grooving block via the second belt. The grooving block and secondary grooving block are rotatably connected to a first adjusting plate and a second adjusting plate, respectively. The first and second adjusting plates are slidably connected to a sliding rail. The grooving block and secondary grooving block have identical structures. A first grid and a second grid are rotatably connected inside the grooving block. An adjusting push plate is mounted on the grooving block, rotatably connected to the first grid and slidably connected to the grooving block. When the rubber strip enters the grooving mold and reaches the grooving area, the grooving motor operates, pressing... The groove block and the grooving sub-block will rotate, and the first and second grids on the grooving block and the grooving sub-block will rotate accordingly and adhere to the adhesive strip, so that the grooving block and the grooving sub-block leave marks on the adhesive strip, completing the grooving operation. When different degrees of grooving density are required, the position of the adjusting push plate can be adjusted to reduce or increase the grid spacing on the first and second grids, thereby achieving density control. When different depths of grooving are required, the position of the first adjusting plate and the second adjusting plate can be adjusted to control the grooving depth on the adhesive strip. With this structure, the adhesive strip can be precisely grooved, and the grooves created by the grooving operation will also allow the adhesive to adhere more smoothly and reduce the possibility of adhesive dripping.
[0010] The impregnation assembly includes an impregnation tank containing several rotating rollers, each rotatably connected to the tank. Each roller contains a rotating filter element and a filter residue storage chamber. An impregnation motor is located within the tank and connected to the rotating rollers via a gear set. A glue storage tank is located at the lower end of the impregnation tank, containing a pusher plate with a hydraulic pusher rod. The pusher plate is slidably connected to the storage tank. A detection plate is also located within the impregnation tank and connected to the hydraulic pusher rod via a wire. When the rubber strip moves into the impregnation tank under the action of the flocked conveyor belt, the mounting block rotates, immersing the grooved portion of the rubber strip into the impregnation tank, thus coating the impregnated portion with glue. Simultaneously, during the impregnation process, the submersible motor rotates, driving the rotating rollers to rotate. The rotating rollers cause the glue in the impregnation tank to flow, constantly replacing the glue near the adhesive strips. This prevents the glue from accumulating and becoming contaminated due to prolonged soaking. Simultaneously, the rotating rollers filter the glue, allowing any clumps or sediment to enter the filter residue storage chamber, preventing these substances from adhering to the adhesive strips and causing flocking failure. During impregnation, a detection plate senses the amount of glue in the tank, moving the hydraulic pusher and pusher plate to ensure sufficient glue from the storage tank enters the impregnation tank. This maintains a sufficient amount of glue and prevents variations in glue volume from reducing the flocked area on the swabs.
[0011] The detection plate contains two energized electrodes, which are connected to the adhesive-push hydraulic rod via wires. An energized float is positioned between the electrodes and is slidably connected to the detection plate. Each end of the float has an anti-adhesion groove connected to it via a conductive sheet. The adhesive-impregnation tank and the detection plate are in a connected state. The energized float will float up under the action of the adhesive, thus detaching from the energized electrodes. At this time, the adhesive-push hydraulic rod will operate, causing the adhesive level in the impregnation tank to rise, thus raising the energized float. The energized electrodes will then adhere to the energized float, and the adhesive-push hydraulic rod will stop the adhesive injection operation. This ensures that the adhesive level in the impregnation tank is maintained to prevent problems such as insufficient adhesive leading to excessive differences in flocking area. The anti-adhesion groove prevents flowing adhesive from entering the energized float.
[0012] The glue removal assembly includes a glue removal motor, an air delivery fan wheel at the motor's output end, and an air delivery pipe rotatably connected to the air delivery pipe, which is located inside the flocking box. A cleaning arm with a cleaning brush is mounted on the air delivery pipe and rotatably connected to the air delivery pipe. Two splash guards are installed inside the flocking box, slidably connected to it. A support spring is installed between each splash guard and the flocking box, with its two ends abutting against the splash guard and the inner wall of the flocking box, respectively. Each splash guard is connected to the output end of the cleaning motor via a connecting steel cable. The cleaning motor is mounted on the flocking box. After the glue strip detaches from the impregnation tank, it enters the flocking box and then above the air delivery pipe, where the cleaning process begins. The motor operates, driving the connecting steel cable. Under the support of the spring, the splash guard moves towards the adhesive strip. At the same time, the adhesive removal motor rotates, driving the air delivery fan wheel to rotate. The rotation of the air delivery fan wheel causes the air in the box to flow towards the adhesive strip. Due to gravity, the adhesive that is falling will move upward under the action of air, thus reducing the possibility of adhesive dripping from the adhesive strip. This ensures that the amount of adhesive on the adhesive strip is equal, while also producing a slight curing effect. If adhesive dripping occurs on the air delivery fan wheel, simply rotate the cleaning arm upward. The cleaning brush will then hit the air delivery fan wheel, and as the air delivery fan wheel rotates, the cleaning brush will remove the adhesive from the air delivery fan wheel.
[0013] The splash guard is equipped with air guide grooves, which are arc-shaped recesses. Air guide rollers are installed inside the air guide grooves and are rotatably connected to the air guide grooves. The air from the air blowing tube will drive the air guide rollers to rotate. The rotating air guide rollers will disperse some air onto the adhesive strip, which will improve the adhesion of the adhesive on the adhesive strip and cause the adhesive strip to harden slightly, but still remain sticky. The undispersed air will flow through the adhesive strip, blowing away the adhesive in that area. This prevents the adhesive from exceeding the flocking adhesion area, reducing contamination of the flocking and improving the success rate of swab use.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. The present invention uses an integrated feeding component in conjunction with a flocked track, which makes feeding easier. At the same time, a trigger-type clamping component is used to clamp the rubber strips that need to be impregnated more stably. Meanwhile, a groove pressing component is used to groove the rubber strips that need to be impregnated, so that the rubber strips can be impregnated more firmly. At the same time, the grooved rubber strips can also greatly improve the adhesion of the glue. The groove pressing component can also ensure that the impregnated part of the rubber strip remains flat and does not have unevenness.
[0015] 2. This invention employs a flow-type impregnation assembly, which ensures the viscosity of the adhesive during impregnation, reducing the possibility of adhesive clumping. Simultaneously, an internal rotating filter assembly filters the flowing adhesive in real time, preventing dried-out impurities from adhering to the adhesive strip and avoiding lumps of adhesive sticking to it. Furthermore, an automatic dispensing assembly replenishes the adhesive in the impregnation tank in real time, preventing inconsistent impregnation areas on the adhesive strips.
[0016] 3. This invention uses a glue removal component to process the glue strip, removing excess glue from the strip. The glue removal motor also reduces the problem of large glue drips and glue accumulation at the ends, making the glue more uniform. The anti-splash plate structure allows the glue to slightly harden on the glue strip, reducing the difficulty of lint adhesion, greatly improving the yield rate, and making the lint more uniform.

Detailed Implementation
[0030] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and 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.
[0031] Please see Figures 1-11 The present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0032] The adhesive impregnation device includes a support bed 1, a feeding box 2 on the support bed 1, a wiping track 3 inside the feeding box 2, an adjustment box 4 on the wiping track 3, a pressure groove assembly 5 on one side of the wiping track 3, an adhesive impregnation assembly 6 inside the feeding box 2, the adhesive impregnation assembly 6 being located below the wiping track 3, a flocking box 7 on one side of the feeding box 2, an adhesive removal assembly 8 inside the flocking box 7, the adhesive removal assembly 8 being slidably connected to the wiping track 3, a flocking frame 9 inside the flocking box 7, a flocking hydraulic rod 10 on the flocking frame 9, the flocking hydraulic rod 10 being located inside the flocking box 7, a rotating planting trough 11 inside the flocking frame 9, a flocking motor 12 inside the flocking frame 9, and the output end of the flocking motor 12 being connected to the rotating planting trough 11. At the start of operation, the glue sticks or cotton swabs to be impregnated are placed into the feeding box, then into the adjustment box, where they are arranged in order and smoothly transported to the wiping track. From there, they are transported to the pressing assembly for pressing. After pressing, the glue sticks and cotton swabs enter the impregnation assembly for glue application. They then enter the de-glue assembly for surface treatment. Finally, they enter the flocking box and are captured by the flocking frame. The flocking motor inside the flocking frame rotates, causing the rotating planting trough to rotate on the frame for flocking. Once flocking is complete, the swabs are ejected from the impregnation equipment, completing the entire impregnation and flocking process.
[0033] The swab track 3 includes a conveyor motor 301, the output end of which is connected to a conveyor shaft 302. A flocked track 303 is mounted on the conveyor shaft 302, which is connected to a transmission shaft 304 via the flocked track 303. The conveyor shaft 302 and the transmission shaft 304 are rotatably connected to the feeding box 2. Several clamping bars 305 are mounted on the flocked track 303, each of which is rotatably connected to the flocked track 303. The clamping bars 305 are in sliding contact with the pressing groove assembly 5. An adjusting box 4 is in sliding contact with the clamping bars 305. A material passage 401 is provided inside the adjusting box 4, and a feeding roller is mounted on the material passage 401. The feeding roller 402 is rotatably connected to the adjusting box 4. When the rubber strip enters the adjusting box, the clamping strip will capture the already placed rubber strip. Then, the conveyor motor will run, driving the conveyor shaft to rotate. The conveyor shaft drives the transmission shaft to rotate through the flocked track. The transmission shaft plays a supporting role. The clamping strip will be sent to the pressing groove assembly. The feeding method of adjusting box and track can effectively avoid problems such as blockage and breakage of rubber strip during feeding. At the same time, the conveyor motor is a stepper motor, which can fully complete the accuracy and integrity of each step in the process of conveying rubber strip.
[0034] The clamping bar 305 includes a mounting block 306, which is rotatably connected to the flocked track 303. A clamping slider 307 is mounted on the mounting block 306 and slidably connected to the mounting block 306. A clamping spring 308 is positioned between the clamping slider 307 and the mounting block 306, with both ends of the spring abutting against the clamping slider 307 and the mounting block 306 respectively. The clamping slider 307 is in slidable contact with the feeding roller 402, which has a toothed groove. An oscillating column 403 is mounted on the adjusting box 4, and the feeding roller 402 is rotatably connected to the adjusting box 4 via the oscillating column 403. An oscillating spring 404 is mounted on the oscillating column 403 and is embedded in the toothed groove. The material roller 402 makes sliding contact, and the clamping slider 307 makes sliding contact with the pressing assembly 5. During the operation of the flocking track, the mounting block will abut against the flocking track and then move. During the movement, the mounting block will pass through the adjustment box, and the clamping slider on the mounting block will abut against the feeding roller. Then the flocking motor continues to move, which will drive the feeding roller to rotate. Under the action of the vibrating spring, the feeding roller will release a rubber strip. One operation is one cycle of the flocking motor. At this time, the rubber strip in the material passage will fall on the already opened mounting block. The feeding gear will release the clamping slider, so that the rubber strip in the clamping slider box is close and firmly locked. Then it enters the pressing assembly, and the pressing assembly performs the next operation.
[0035] The grooving assembly 5 includes a sliding rail 501, within which a friction slider 502 is disposed. The friction slider 502 slides in contact with the clamping slider 307. The friction slider 502 is wedge-shaped. The sliding rail 501 is mounted on a grooving rail 504, which is connected to the sliding rail 501 via an adjusting bolt 503. The grooving rail 504 is located within the feeding box 2, and a grooving mold 505 is disposed within it. When the rubber strip enters the sliding rail, the friction slider will press against the clamping slider, causing the clamping slider to release the rubber strip. Under the action of the sliding rail, the posture of the rubber strip is adjusted so that the dipped end of the rubber strip remains flush. Subsequently, it will enter the grooving rail. To ensure the variability of the grooving position, the position can be adjusted using the adjusting bolt. The rubber strip entering the grooving rail will be grooved by the grooving mold. After grooving, the rubber strip will be more easily dipped, increasing the success rate of dipping and improving the adhesion of the adhesive to the rubber strip.
[0036] The grooving mold 505 includes a grooving motor 506. A first grooving belt 507 and a second grooving belt 508 are provided on the output end of the grooving motor 506. The grooving motor 506 is connected to a grooving block 509 via the first grooving belt 507 and to a grooving auxiliary block 510 via the second grooving belt 508. The grooving block 509 and the grooving auxiliary block 510 are rotatably connected to a first adjusting plate 511 and a second adjusting plate 512, respectively. The first adjusting plate 511 and the second adjusting plate 512 are slidably connected to a sliding rail 501. The grooving block 509 and the grooving auxiliary block 510 have the same structure. A first grid 513 and a second grid 514 are provided inside the grooving block 509, and the first grid 513 and the second grid 514 are rotatably connected. An adjusting push plate 515 is provided on the grooving block 509, and the adjusting push plate 515 is rotatably connected to the first grid 513. The adjusting push plate 515 is connected to the grooving block. The 509 sliding connection allows the adhesive strip to enter the grooving mold and then reach the grooving area. The grooving motor then rotates, causing the grooving block and sub-block to rotate. The first and second grids on these blocks rotate accordingly and adhere to the adhesive strip, leaving an imprint and completing the grooving operation. For different grooving densities, the first and second grids are connected by a cross-rotation mechanism. Adjusting the position of the push plate allows for narrowing or widening of the grid spacing, thus controlling the density. For grooving depths, adjusting the positions of the first and second adjusting plates controls the grooving depth on the adhesive strip. This structure enables precise grooving of the adhesive strip, and the resulting grooves allow for smoother adhesive adhesion, reducing the possibility of dripping.
[0037] The impregnation assembly 6 includes an impregnation tank 601, within which are arranged a plurality of rotating rollers 602, each rotatably connected to the impregnation tank 601. A rotating filter element 603 is disposed within each rotating roller 602, and a filter residue storage chamber 604 is also disposed within each rotating roller 602. An impregnation motor 605 is disposed within the impregnation tank 601, and the impregnation motor 605 is connected to the rotating rollers 602 via a gear set. A storage chamber is located at the lower end of the impregnation tank 601. The glue tank 606 contains a glue-pushing plate 607, on which a glue-pushing hydraulic rod 608 is mounted. The glue-pushing plate 607 is slidably connected to the glue tank 606. The glue-dipping tank 601 contains a detection plate 609, which is connected to the glue-pushing hydraulic rod 608 via a wire. When the rubber strip moves into the glue-dipping tank under the action of the flocked track, the mounting block rotates, causing the grooved portion of the rubber strip to be immersed in the glue-dipping tank, thus dipping the rubber strip into the glue-dipping tank. Partially coated with glue, the suburban motor rotates during the glue-immersion process, driving a rotating roller to rotate. The rotating roller causes the glue in the immersion tank to flow, constantly replacing the glue near the adhesive strip. This prevents glue from accumulating and becoming contaminated due to prolonged soaking. Simultaneously, the rotating roller filters the glue, allowing clumps and sediment to enter the filter residue storage chamber, preventing these substances from adhering to the adhesive strip and causing flocking failure. During immersion, a detection plate senses the amount of glue in the immersion tank, moving the glue-pushing hydraulic rod and pushing plate to allow glue from the storage tank to enter the immersion tank. This ensures sufficient glue during immersion and prevents issues such as reduced flocking area on the swab due to changes in glue volume.
[0038] The detection plate 609 is equipped with two energized electrodes 610, which are connected to the glue-pushing hydraulic rod 608 via wires. An energized float 611 is provided between the energized electrodes 610, and the float 611 is slidably connected to the detection plate 609. Each end of the float 611 is provided with an anti-glue groove 612, which is connected by a conductive sheet. The glue-impregnation tank and the detection plate are in a connected state. The float will float up under the action of glue, thus separating from the energized electrodes. At this time, the glue-pushing hydraulic rod will work, and the glue level in the glue-impregnation tank will rise, causing the float to rise. The energized electrodes will then adhere to the float, and the glue-pushing hydraulic rod will stop the glue injection operation. This ensures that the glue level in the glue-impregnation tank is not insufficient, which could lead to problems such as excessive differences in flocking area. The anti-glue groove will prevent the flowing glue from entering the float.
[0039] The glue removal assembly 8 includes a glue removal motor 801. An air delivery fan wheel 802 is mounted at the output end of the glue removal motor 801. The air delivery fan wheel 802 is rotatably connected to an air delivery pipe 803, which is located inside the flocking box 7. A cleaning arm 804 is mounted on the air delivery pipe 803, and a cleaning brush 805 is mounted on the cleaning arm 804. The cleaning arm 804 is rotatably connected to the air delivery pipe 803. Two splash guards 806 are installed inside the flocking box 7, slidably connected to the flocking box 7. A support spring 807 is installed between each splash guard 806 and the flocking box 7, with its two ends abutting against the splash guard 806 and the inner wall of the flocking box 7, respectively. Each splash guard 806 is connected to the output end of a cleaning motor 809 via a connecting steel cable 808, which is located inside the flocking box 7. After the adhesive strip leaves the impregnation tank, it enters the flocking box and then the air supply pipe. At this time, the impurity removal motor works, driving the connecting steel rope. The splash guard moves towards the adhesive strip under the action of the support spring. Meanwhile, the adhesive removal motor rotates, driving the air supply fan wheel to rotate. The rotation of the air supply fan wheel causes the air in the box to flow towards the adhesive strip. At this time, the adhesive that is falling due to gravity will move upward under the action of air, thereby reducing the possibility of adhesive dripping from the adhesive strip. This ensures that the amount of adhesive on the adhesive strip is equal, while also producing a slight curing effect. If adhesive dripping occurs on the air supply fan wheel, simply rotate the impurity removal arm upward. The cleaning brush will hit the air supply fan wheel, and as the air supply fan wheel rotates, the cleaning brush will clean the adhesive off the air supply fan wheel.
[0040] The splash guard 806 is provided with an air guide groove 810, which is an arc-shaped groove. An air guide roller 811 is provided inside the air guide groove 810. The air guide roller 811 is rotatably connected to the air guide groove 810. The air from the air blowing pipe will drive the air guide roller to rotate. The rotating air guide roller will disperse some air onto the adhesive strip, which will increase the adhesion of the adhesive on the adhesive strip. At the same time, the adhesive strip will also show a slight hardening phenomenon, but it will still remain sticky. The undispersed air will flow through the adhesive strip, and the adhesive in that area will be blown away, so that the adhesive will not exceed the adhesion area of the flocking, reducing the contamination of the flocking and improving the success rate of the swab.
[0041] The working principle of this invention is as follows: At the start of operation, the glue sticks or cotton swabs to be impregnated are placed into the feeding box, then into the adjusting box, where they are arranged sequentially and pass through the feeding chute. The use of feeding rollers ensures that each captured glue strip is an independent strip, which is then smoothly transported to the wiping track. The conveyor motor then drives the flocked conveyor belt, which is clamped and conveyed by clamping bars to the pressing assembly. The pressing area is adjusted via a sliding track, and then the pressing motor drives the pressing mold to press the glue strip into grooves. After pressing, the glue strip is continued to be conveyed by the flocked conveyor belt. The strip is fed into the impregnation assembly, where the impregnation motor rotates, driving the rotating rollers to ensure the fluidity of the glue in the impregnation tank and the proper impregnation of the strip. It is then fed into the glue removal assembly, where the glue removal motor rotates, driving airflow vertically towards the strip. This removes the glue while simultaneously slightly hardening the strip, reducing the adhesion of the flocking fibers and resulting in more uniform flocking. The strip then enters the flocking box and is captured by the flocking frame. The flocking motor inside the flocking frame rotates, driving the rotating planting trough to rotate on the frame for flocking. Once flocking is complete, the strip is ejected from the impregnation equipment, completing the entire impregnation and flocking process.
