Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of foam board production equipment technology, and in particular to an EPS foam board production line. Background Technology

[0002] EPS foam board—also known as polystyrene foam board or EPS board—is a white material made from expandable polystyrene beads containing volatile liquid foaming agents. These beads are pre-expanded by heating and then molded into shape. It features a micro-closed-cell structure. It is mainly used for building walls, roof insulation, composite board insulation, cold storage, air conditioning, vehicle and ship insulation, underfloor heating, and decorative carving.

[0003] Existing technologies for EPS foam board production have certain shortcomings in the edge trimming process, as foam and debris are easily generated during trimming. After processing, the foam boards require manual handling, which is labor-intensive and time-consuming, reducing processing efficiency. Furthermore, the cooling and curing process typically requires manual transfer of the foam boards to a cooling device, and repeated manual handling can damage the surface and affect product quality. To address these issues, a solution is proposed below. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an EPS foam board production line. Through a processing and grinding device and a cleaning device, the production line can be effectively solved by eliminating the problem of debris left on the production line during the trimming of foam boards. The conveying device can solve the problem of time-consuming and labor-intensive manual handling. The cooling device can accelerate the cooling and curing process of the foam boards and ensure product quality.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] An EPS foam board production line includes: a grinding and processing device, a debris collection device, a cleaning device, a cutting device, a cooling device, and a conveying device; the grinding and processing device is installed on the ground and is used to grind and polish both sides of the foam board; the debris collection device is installed on the grinding and processing device and is used to collect debris and foam particles that fall off during grinding and polishing; the cleaning device is installed on top of the debris collection device and is used to clean debris and foam from the grinding and processing device; the cutting device is installed at the unloading end of the grinding and processing device and is used to cut the foam board; the cooling device is installed at the unloading end of the cutting device and is used to cool and solidify the foam board; the conveying device is installed at the unloading end of the cooling device and is used to automatically stack the foam board; the grinding and processing device, the cutting device, the cooling device, and the conveying device are all equipped with a transmission mechanism, which is used to drive the foam board from the unloading end to the loading end.

[0007] Using the above technical solution, foam boards are fed from the inlet of the grinding and processing device and driven by a transmission mechanism. The grinding and processing device trims the edges of the foam boards and compacts the bottom of the foam boards. During the transmission process, the foam boards generate debris and foam particles during trimming. The cleaning device cleans the foam particles and debris into the debris collection device, thus preventing foam particles and debris from being left or adhering to the grinding and processing device during production. After the foam boards are ground, they are transferred to the cutting device table, where the cutting device cuts the foam boards to the corresponding dimensions. After cutting, they are transferred to the cooling device for cooling and solidification treatment of the foam, avoiding manual handling and transfer. Finally, the conveying device automatically unloads the foam boards. The entire process simplifies manual labor, speeds up processing and production efficiency, and to a certain extent protects the product, avoiding damage to the foam boards caused by repeated manual handling.

[0008] Preferably, the grinding processing device includes a fixed frame, a transmission assembly, and a grinding assembly;

[0009] The fixing frame is mounted on the transmission mechanism; the transmission assembly is mounted on the fixing frame and is used to drive the foam board on the fixing frame; the grinding assembly is mounted on the fixing frame and is used to grind and trim both sides of the foam board.

[0010] Using the above technical solution, the transmission component, as a driving component, can drive the grinding component to perform transmission, and after the grinding component is driven, it can perform grinding and finishing treatment on both sides of the foam board.

[0011] Preferably, the transmission assembly includes a worm gear, a worm, a servo motor, a transmission roller, a connecting shaft, and a transmission component. The servo motor is mounted on a fixed frame, the worm is mounted on the output shaft of the servo motor, the worm gears mesh with each other on the worm, and the transmission component is mounted on the connecting shaft for driving the worm gears and the grinding assembly. The connecting shaft, the transmission component, and the worm gear are all rotatably engaged, and the transmission roller is rotatably arranged on the fixed frame.

[0012] Using the above technical solution, the worm gear and worm are symmetrically arranged on the fixed frame. After the servo motor is started, the output shaft of the servo motor drives the worm to rotate. The worm can drive the meshing worm gear to drive the transmission. After the worm gear rotates, it drives the connecting shaft and the transmission component to drive together. The transmission roller rotates through the transmission assembly, so that the foam board is driven on the transmission roller.

[0013] Preferably, the grinding assembly includes a compaction wheel and a grinding wheel. The grinding wheel is conical and mounted on the transmission component for grinding both sides of the foam board. The compaction wheel is disc-shaped and mounted on the transmission component for compacting the foam board driven by the transmission roller.

[0014] Using the above technical solution, the compaction wheel is disc-shaped and can compact the foam board being transmitted, preventing deviation during transmission. When the transmission component is driven, it drives the grinding wheel to rotate. The grinding wheel is conical in shape, and the side of the cone makes contact with the transmitted foam board for grinding.

[0015] Preferably, the cleaning device includes a cleaning brush, a spring, a telescopic rod, and a cleaning disc. The cleaning disc is mounted on a connecting shaft, and the connecting shaft and the fixing frame are rotatably coupled. The telescopic rod is circumferentially arranged on the cleaning disc. The spring is sleeved on the telescopic rod, with one end of the spring connected to the cleaning brush and the other end of the spring connected to the cleaning disc.

[0016] Using the above technical solution, the cleaning brush rotates along with the cleaning disc during its rotation. The cleaning disc and the cleaning brush are buffered by a telescopic rod and a spring. The cleaning brush contacts the grinding wheel while rotating. Due to the telescopic rod and spring, the cleaning brush effectively cleans the adhering debris and foam particles during its rebound and extension.

[0017] Preferably, the debris collection device includes a collection box, a control pump, a dust collection hood, and a protective strip. The collection box is installed at the bottom of the fixed frame, the control pump is installed at the top of the collection box, the output port of the dust collection hood is connected to the input port of the control pump, and the protective strip is installed on the dust collection hood to block foam particles and debris on the cleaning brush.

[0018] Using the above technical solution, when collecting debris and foam particles, the control pump sucks the debris and foam particles cleaned down through the dust collection hood into the collection box. The protective strip can prevent the foam particles and debris swept off by the cleaning brush from flying out in all directions, and assists in sucking the foam particles and debris into the collection box together.

[0019] Preferably, the cutting device includes a cutting machine, a cutting frame, a chain, sprockets, a telescopic cylinder, a control motor, and a clamping plate. The sprockets are rotatably mounted around the center of the cutting frame, and the chain drive is arranged on the sprockets around the center. The output shaft of the control motor is connected to one of the sprockets. The telescopic cylinders are symmetrically arranged along the sprockets on the cutting frame. The clamping plate is mounted on the output end of the telescopic cylinders. The cutting machine is mounted on the chain.

[0020] Using the above technical solution, before the cutting process, the telescopic cylinder will drive the clamping plate to press against the end face of the foam board to prevent positional displacement during cutting. After the control motor starts, the output shaft of the control motor drives the sprocket connected to the control motor to rotate. The other three sprockets are driven by chains. When the motor rotates forward, it drives the sprocket and the cutting machine to move to one side. When the motor rotates in reverse, it drives the sprocket and the cutting machine to move in the opposite direction. The motor enables the cutting machine to reciprocate on the foam board, thereby realizing the cutting process.

[0021] Preferably, the cooling device includes cooling pipes, a water tank, a fan, tracks, a water pump, and guide rods. The water tank is placed on the ground, the track drive is arranged on a transmission mechanism, the cooling pipes are arranged in a serpentine pattern within the transmission mechanism and are symmetrically arranged in the vertical direction, the fan is installed between adjacent cooling pipes, the input end of the cooling pipe is connected to the output end of the water pump, the output end of the cooling pipe is connected to the water tank, the water pump is connected to the water tank via a pipe, and several guide rods are arranged laterally, with several guide rods arranged on the tracks.

[0022] Using the above technical solution, when the foam board is transferred to the track on the cooling device, the transmission mechanism drives the track to move. The feed end of the cooling device is connected to the cut foam board via the transmission mechanism. The guide rod on the track can effectively support the foam board. Each piece of foam board can be transferred independently. At the same time, the fan drives the cooling pipe to blow cold air towards the foam board, accelerating the cooling and solidification of the foam board. The water in the cooling pipe is circulated through the water pump and water tank, achieving energy saving during cooling.

[0023] Preferably, an electromagnet is also installed on the side of the cutting machine, and an armature that cooperates with the electromagnet is also installed on the cutting frame.

[0024] Using the above technical solution, when the electromagnet is energized, the electromagnet and the armature attract each other, causing the cutting machine and the cutting frame to come into contact with each other. At the same time, it provides feedback to the operator that the cutting machine is in a non-working state, which improves safety performance and facilitates the maintenance of the cutting machine. When the electromagnet is de-energized, the attraction between the electromagnet and the armature weakens, allowing the cutting machine to easily complete the cutting work on the cutting frame.

[0025] Preferably, the transmission device includes a bracket, a connecting plate, a lifting mechanism, a sliding mechanism, and a suction cup;

[0026] The bracket is arranged on one side of the transmission mechanism;

[0027] The lifting mechanism is mounted on the bracket and is used for lifting the suction cup and the connecting plate;

[0028] The sliding mechanism is mounted on the bracket and is used to drive the sliding mechanism, suction cup and connecting plate to slide.

[0029] The connecting plate is mounted on the lifting mechanism;

[0030] The suction cup is mounted on the connecting plate for adsorbing and transferring the foam board.

[0031] Using the above technical solution, when transferring foam boards, the sliding mechanism on the support uses a motor, lead screw, and slider. After the motor is driven, the motor output shaft drives the lead screw to rotate. The lead screw can drive the slider and connecting plate on the support to move together, thereby realizing the horizontal transfer of the foam boards. The lifting mechanism uses an electric push rod, which drives the connecting plate and suction cups to transfer vertically. The suction cups act to adsorb and detach the foam boards. The foam boards are adsorbed by the suction cups, the lifting mechanism lifts them, the sliding mechanism moves the foam boards, and the lifting mechanism lowers them to the stacking area. Finally, the suction cups reduce the adsorption force between the foam boards, realizing the automatic transfer of foam boards, simplifying manual transportation, and improving the efficiency of transfer.

[0032] Preferably, the transmission component includes a first gear, a second gear, and an idler gear. The first gear, the second gear, and the idler gear are all connected to the connecting shaft. The first gear and the idler gear mesh with each other, the second gear and the idler gear mesh with each other, the first gear and the grinding wheel are coaxial, and the second gear and the compaction wheel are coaxial.

[0033] Using the above technical solution, after gear one rotates, gear one drives the grinding wheel for transmission, while the idler wheel has the transmission effect, driving gear two for transmission. The compaction wheel can also be driven together, thus driving the compaction wheel and the grinding wheel to work together. The foam board can be both ground and compacted simultaneously.

[0034] Beneficial effects: 1. The grinding and processing device cuts the edges of the foam board, and the resulting debris and foam particles are collected and cleaned by the debris collection device and the cleaning device, effectively preventing foam particles and debris from adhering to the grinding and processing device.

[0035] When the foam board is cooled and cured, it is automatically transported by mechanical equipment and cooled by a cooling device, avoiding manual transfer to the cooling chamber. At the same time, the air cooling and water cooling effects are excellent, realizing the water circulation cooling effect and saving energy.

[0036] After processing, the foam boards are transported by a conveyor system, eliminating the need for manual handling, saving labor costs, and improving processing efficiency.

[0037] Reducing manpower from direct contact with finished foam boards effectively ensures the production quality of foam boards during processing. Attached Figure Description

[0063] Foam boards are fed from the inlet of the grinding and processing device 1 and driven by a transmission mechanism. The grinding and processing device 1 trims the edges of the foam boards and compacts the bottom of the foam boards. During the transmission process, the foam boards generate debris and foam particles during trimming. The cleaning device 3 cleans the foam particles and debris into the debris collection device 2, thus preventing foam particles and debris from being left or adhering to the grinding and processing device during production. After the foam boards are ground, they are transferred to the cutting device 4 table, where the cutting device 4 cuts the foam boards to the corresponding dimensions. After cutting, they are transferred to the cooling device 5 for cooling and solidification of the foam, avoiding manual handling and transfer. Finally, the conveying device 6 automatically unloads the foam boards. The whole process simplifies manual labor, speeds up processing and production efficiency, and protects the product to a certain extent, avoiding damage to the foam boards caused by repeated manual handling.

Worm gear 121 and worm 122 are symmetrically arranged on the fixed frame 11. After the servo motor 123 is started, the output shaft of the servo motor 123 drives the worm 122 to rotate. The worm 122 can drive the meshing worm gear 121 to transmit power. After the worm gear 121 rotates, it drives the connecting shaft 125 and the transmission component 126 to transmit power together. The transmission roller 124 rotates through the transmission assembly 12, so that the foam board is transmitted on the transmission roller 124.

The grinding wheel 132 is conical and mounted on the transmission component 126 for grinding both sides of the foam board. The compaction wheel 131 is disc-shaped and mounted on the transmission component 126 for compacting the foam board driven by the transmission roller 124.

After the control motor 46 is started, the output shaft of the control motor 46 drives the sprocket 44 connected to the control motor 46 to rotate. The other three sprockets 44 are driven by chains. When the motor rotates forward, it drives the sprocket 44 and the cutting machine 41 to move to one side. When the motor rotates in reverse, it drives the sprocket 44 and the cutting machine 41 to move in the opposite direction. The motor enables the cutting machine 41 to reciprocate on the foam board, thereby realizing the cutting process.

[0071] The cooling device 5 includes cooling pipes 51, a water tank 52, a fan 53, a track 54, a water pump 55, and guide rods 56. The water tank 52 is placed on the ground.

Several guide rods 56 are arranged laterally and are arranged on the track 54.

[0072] When the foam board is transferred to the track 54 on the cooling device 5, the transmission mechanism drives the track 54 to move. The feed end of the cooling device 5 is transferred with the cut foam board through the transmission mechanism. The guide rod 56 on the track 54 can effectively support the foam board. Each piece of transmission foam board can be transferred independently. At the same time, the fan 53 drives the cooling pipe 51 to blow cold air towards the foam board, which accelerates the cooling and solidification of the foam board. The water in the cooling pipe 51 is circulated through the water pump 55 and the water tank 52, which saves energy during cooling.

[0073] An electromagnet 411 is also installed on the side of the cutting machine 41, and an armature 412 that cooperates with the electromagnet 411 is also installed on the cutting frame 42. When the electromagnet 411 is energized, the electromagnet 411 and the armature 412 attract each other, causing the cutting machine 41 and the cutting frame 42 to come into contact with each other, and at the same time providing feedback to the operator that the cutting machine 41 is in a non-working state, improving safety performance and facilitating the maintenance of the cutting machine 41. When the electromagnet 411 is de-energized, the attraction between the electromagnet 411 and the armature 412 weakens, allowing the cutting machine 41 to easily complete the cutting work on the cutting frame 42.

The connecting plate 62 is mounted on the lifting mechanism 63. The suction cup 65 is mounted on the connecting plate 62 and is used to adsorb the transferred foam board.

[0075] When transferring foam boards, the sliding mechanism on the support 61 uses a motor, lead screw, and slider. After the motor is driven, the motor output shaft drives the lead screw to rotate. The lead screw can drive the slider on the support 61 and the connecting plate 62 to move together, thereby realizing the horizontal transfer of the foam boards. The lifting mechanism 63 uses an electric push rod, which drives the connecting plate 62 and the suction cup 65 to transfer vertically. The suction cup 65 plays the role of adsorbing and detaching the foam boards. The foam boards are adsorbed by the suction cup 65, the lifting mechanism 63 lifts them, then the sliding mechanism moves the foam boards, and the lifting mechanism 63 lowers them to the stacking position. Finally, the suction cup 65 reduces the adsorption force between the foam boards, realizing the automatic transfer of foam boards, simplifying manual transportation, and improving the efficiency of transfer.

[0076] The transmission component 126 includes a first gear 1261, a second gear 1262, and an idler gear 1263. The first gear 1261, the second gear 1262, and the idler gear 1263 are all connected to the connecting shaft 125. The first gear 1261 and the idler gear 1263 mesh with each other, the second gear 1262 and the idler gear 1263 mesh with each other, the first gear 1261 is coaxial with the grinding wheel 132, and the second gear 1262 is coaxial with the compaction wheel 131.

[0077] After gear 1261 rotates, gear 1261 drives the grinding wheel 132 for transmission. The idler wheel 1263 also has a transmission effect, driving gear 2 1262 for transmission. The compaction wheel 131 can also be driven together, thus driving the compaction wheel 131 and the grinding wheel 132 to work together. The foam board can be both ground and compacted simultaneously.

[0078] In summary, the grinding and processing device 1 performs edge trimming on both sides of the foam board, and the resulting debris and foam particles are collected and cleaned by the debris collection device 2 and the cleaning device 3, effectively preventing foam particles and debris from adhering to the grinding and processing device 1.

[0079] When the foam board is cooled and cured, it is automatically transported by mechanical equipment and cooled by cooling device 5, avoiding manual transfer to the cooling chamber. At the same time, the air cooling and water cooling effects are excellent, realizing the water circulation cooling effect and saving energy.

[0080] After the foam board is processed, it is transported by the conveyor device 6, which avoids manual handling, saves labor costs, and improves processing efficiency.

[0081] Reducing manpower from direct contact with finished foam boards effectively ensures the production quality of foam boards during processing.

Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of this invention.
