Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a continuous needle locking and reinforcement device, belonging to the field of rope braid processing technology, specifically to the field of needle locking and reinforcement technology for rope braid processing. Background Technology
[0002] There are various braiding techniques for rope, such as three-strand, four-strand, and six-strand braids. The three-strand braid is the most basic, using three ropes interwoven to create smooth, intricate patterns. The four-strand braid uses four ropes and is more robust than the three-strand braid. The six-strand braid uses six ropes and can create more complex patterns and designs. In addition, there are some special braiding techniques, such as single and double braids. A single braid uses only one rope and can be used to create delicate rope buckles and pendants; a double braid involves smoothly crossing two ropes and can be used to make bracelets, belts, and other similar items. In general, rope braiding techniques are very diverse, and the appropriate method can be chosen based on different materials, intended use, and personal preferences.
[0003] Currently, most braided ropes on the market are hand-woven, and due to the skill level of the weavers, the same type of braid will appear different depending on who weaves it. This can look very messy when worn on the head. Moreover, most current braids are made by first cutting the rope and then weaving it, and the length of the braid cannot be trimmed according to the wearer's needs. Once cut, the entire braid will unravel, which is very inconvenient. In order to standardize the specifications of the braids and allow users to cut the braids as needed without the remaining braids unraveling after cutting, we propose a continuous needle locking and reinforcement device. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a continuous needle locking and reinforcement device to solve the problem that existing braided ropes will show different shapes when braided by different people, and will look very messy when worn on the head. Moreover, most current braided ropes are made by cutting the rope first and then braiding it, and the length of the braid cannot be trimmed according to the wearer's needs, because once it is cut, the entire braid will come apart.
[0005] The technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows:
[0006] A continuous needle locking and reinforcement device includes a support one, a support two, and an electrical control box installed on the side of the support one. The surface of the support one is equipped with a needle fixing structure for fixing the rope braid. One side of the needle fixing structure is provided with a guide structure for transmitting the rope strands into it, and the other side of the needle fixing structure is provided with a discharge port for exporting the processed rope braid. The surface of the support two is equipped with a transmission structure for pulling the rope braid flowing out of the discharge port.
[0007] Furthermore, the guiding structure includes a bearing seat one mounted on the surface of the support two. A feed pipe is sleeved inside the bearing seat one. A limiting tube is installed on the end face of the feed pipe away from the support one. A connected material passage is opened inside the feed pipe and the limiting tube. An installation tube is installed on the side of the limiting tube. A slide rod is slidably installed inside the installation tube. The bottom end of the slide rod passes through and extends into the material passage and is connected to a pressure block. The top end of the pressure block is connected to the top end of the inner wall of the limiting tube by a spring.
[0008] Furthermore, the internal installation of the needle fixing structure is divided into upper and lower cavities by a partition. A motor is installed on the surface of the partition, and the output shaft of the motor is connected to the mounting tube by a belt connection structure. A sliding plate is slidably installed inside the cavity below the partition. Limit plates are installed at both ends of the sliding plate. A protruding rod is installed on the cavity wall below the partition at the position corresponding to the partition. Needles are distributed at the bottom of the sliding plate, and a protective hole is opened at the bottom of the cavity below the partition at the position corresponding to the needle.
[0009] Furthermore, the needle includes a conical head, the lower side of which has grooves to prevent the needle from pulling the cord when it retracts, and a cylindrical clamp is installed at the top of the conical head.
[0010] Furthermore, a connecting seat is installed on the surface of the skateboard, two bearing seats are installed on the surface of the partition, and an installation shaft is installed between the two bearing seats. A cam is installed on the installation shaft at the position corresponding to the connecting seat, and a fixed shaft is installed at the eccentric position of the cam. The fixed shaft is connected to the connecting seat through a connecting rod, and the installation shaft passes through and extends to the outside of the bearing seat and is connected to a motor.
[0011] Furthermore, the transmission structure includes a bracket mounted on a surface of the support, a drive shaft distributed inside the bracket, two sprockets sleeved on the outside of each drive shaft, and the sprockets connected by a chain, a push plate mounted on the side of the chain away from the sprockets, the push plate being provided with limiting teeth for pulling the rope braid, and a motor three for providing power to the drive shaft mounted on the side of the bracket.
[0012] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0013] The material for the rope braid passes through the guide structure, where the strands are wound together. Then, under the action of the conveying structure, the wound strands enter the needle-fixing structure. Inside the needle-fixing structure, the needles cause the strands to intertwine tightly, connecting them together. Finally, the material is discharged through the outlet and transported by the conveying structure to the storage location for rope braiding. The resulting rope braids, due to the needles, have very tight intertwining of the strands, resulting in uniform specifications, making them neat and aesthetically pleasing to wear. Furthermore, users can cut the rope braids as needed, and the remaining braids will not unravel after cutting. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.
[0022] Example
[0023] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the continuous needle locking and reinforcement device includes a support 1, a support 2, and an electrical control box 7 installed on the side of the support 1. The surface of the support 1 is equipped with a needle fixing structure 4 for fixing the rope braid. One side of the needle fixing structure 4 is provided with a guide structure 3 for transmitting the rope strands into its interior. The other side of the needle fixing structure 4 is provided with a discharge port 6 for discharging the processed rope braid. The surface of the support 2 is equipped with a transmission structure 5 for pulling the rope braid flowing out of the discharge port 6. The material of the rope braid passes through the interior of the guide structure 3, thereby winding the rope strands. Then, under the action of the transmission structure 5, the wound rope strands enter the interior of the needle fixing structure 4. Under the action of the needles inside the needle fixing structure 4, the rope strands can be tightly connected together and finally discharged through the discharge port 6. The rope braid is then transported to the storage location by the transmission structure 5, thus performing the rope braid processing operation.
[0024] The guide structure 3 includes a bearing seat 9 mounted on the surface of the support 2. A feed pipe 10 is sleeved inside the bearing seat 9. A limiting pipe 11 is installed on the end face of the feed pipe 10 away from the support 1. A connecting material passage 12 is opened inside the feed pipe 10 and the limiting pipe 11. An installation pipe 13 is installed on the side of the limiting pipe 11. A slide rod 14 is slidably installed inside the installation pipe 13. The bottom end of the slide rod 14 passes through and extends into the material passage 12 and is connected to a pressure block 15. The top end of the pressure block 15 is connected to the top end of the inner wall of the limiting pipe 11 by a spring 16. In use, the slide rod 14 is first pulled upward, and then the rope strand passes through the material passage 12 below the pressure block 15. Then the pressure block 15 is released, and under the action of the spring 16, the pressure block 15 presses the rope strand inside the material passage 12.
[0025] The internal mounting of the needle fixing structure 4 is divided into upper and lower cavities by a partition 8. A motor 18 is mounted on the surface of the partition 8. The output shaft of the motor 18 is connected to the mounting tube 13 via a belt connection structure 19. The motor 18 drives the mounting tube 13 to rotate under the action of the belt connection structure 19. Under the joint operation of the pressure block 15, the rope strands passing through the material passage 12 are wound together. A sliding plate 21 is slidably mounted inside the cavity below the partition 8. Limit plates 27 are installed at both ends of the sliding plate 21. A protruding rod 28 is installed on the cavity wall below, corresponding to the position of the partition 8. A needle 22 is distributed at the bottom of the slide plate 21. A protective hole 23 is provided at the bottom of the cavity below the partition 8, corresponding to the position of the needle 22. This allows the slide plate 21 to slide up and down along the protruding rod 28 inside the needle fixing structure 4, so that the needle 22 can act on the rope strands, thereby making the rope strands inside the rope strands tightly wrapped together. The protective hole 23 can prevent the needle tip of the needle 22 from making hard contact.
[0026] The needle 22 includes a conical head 24, with grooves 26 distributed on the lower side of the conical head 24 to prevent the needle from pulling the thread when returning. A cylindrical retaining head 25 is installed at the top of the conical head 24. The needle 22 is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, the conical head 24 is designed to smoothly enter the interior of the rope strands, and the groove 26 is designed to allow the needle 22 to bring the line above the rope strands to the bottom when it descends, while preventing the needle 22 from bringing the line below the rope strands to the top when it moves upwards, thereby allowing the lines inside the rope strands to be tightly wound together.
[0027] A connecting seat 29 is installed on the surface of the slide plate 21, and two bearing seats 30 are installed on the surface of the partition plate 8. An installation shaft 31 is installed between the two bearing seats 30. A cam 32 is installed on the installation shaft 31 at the position corresponding to the connecting seat 29. A fixed shaft 33 is installed at the eccentric position of the cam 32. The fixed shaft 33 is connected to the connecting seat 29 through a connecting rod 34. The installation shaft 31 passes through and extends to the outside of the bearing seat 30 and is connected to a motor 35. Thus, when the motor 35 is working, the slide plate 21 can be driven to move up and down under the transmission of the connecting seat 29, the installation shaft 31, the fixed shaft 33 and the connecting rod 34, thereby providing the necessary power for the movement of the needle 22.
[0028] The transmission structure 5 includes a bracket 36 mounted on the surface of the support 1. Inside the bracket 36 are drive shafts 37, each with two sprockets 38 sleeved on its exterior. The sprockets 38 are connected by a chain 39. A push plate 40 is mounted on the side of the chain 39 away from the sprockets 38. The push plate 40 has limiting teeth 41 for pulling the rope braid. A motor 42, which provides power to the drive shafts 37, is mounted on the side of the bracket 36. Thus, when the motor 42 is working, the push plate 40 can be driven to circulate under the combined action of the drive shafts 37, sprockets 38, and chain 39. Through the contact between the limiting teeth 41 and the rope braid, the rope braid is pressed against the surface of the support 2 and moved, thereby providing power for the movement of the rope braid inside the needle fixing structure 4. The above-described structure is used to collect the rope braid, rather than a roller-like structure, because this collection structure better maintains the shape of the processed rope braid of the needle fixing structure 4, making it more fluffy overall.
[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
