[0024] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that these descriptions are merely descriptive and exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] Example:

[0026] like Figure 1-7As shown, the multi-functional flat tube collecting platform includes a frame 1. A longitudinal collecting mechanism and a transverse output mechanism 14 are installed on the frame 1. The longitudinal collecting mechanism consists of a first receiving mechanism, a second receiving and conveying mechanism 19, and a transverse pushing mechanism. A feed trough adjusting cylinder 25 is fixedly installed inside the upper part of the frame 1. A push plate 26 is fixedly provided at the output end of the feed trough adjusting cylinder 25.

[0027] The first receiving mechanism includes a first motor 2, a first lead screw 3, a threaded block 4, a mounting frame 5, a first slide rail 6, a first receiving plate 7, a second lead screw 8, a second slide rail 9, and a mounting top plate 10. The second slide rail 9 is fixedly connected to the frame 1, and the mounting top plate 10 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the second slide rail 9. The second lead screw 8 is rotatably connected to the frame 1, and the second lead screw 8 is threadedly connected to the mounting top plate 10. The second lead screw 8 is driven by the motor. The first motor 2 is fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting top plate 10, and the first lead screw 3 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the first motor 2. The threaded block 4 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the first lead screw 3, and the mounting frame 5 is slidably mounted on the outer surface of the threaded block 4. The first slide rail 6 is fixedly connected to the frame 1, and the first slide rail 6 is slidably connected to the mounting frame 5. Multiple sets of first receiving plates 7 are fixedly mounted on the front surface of the mounting frame 5.

[0028] The second receiving conveyor mechanism 19 includes a third motor 20, a second receiving conveyor rotating shaft 21, a second receiving conveyor belt 22, a synchronous pulley set 23, and a conveyor belt receiving boss 24. The third motor 20 is fixedly installed on the frame 1. The output end of the third motor 20 is equipped with a synchronous pulley set 23. The synchronous pulley set 23 is rotatably connected to the second receiving conveyor rotating shaft 21 via a belt. The second receiving conveyor rotating shaft 21 is rotatably connected to the frame 1. Multiple sets of second receiving conveyor belts 22 are driven to the outer surface of the second receiving conveyor rotating shaft 21. The outer surface of the second receiving conveyor belt 22 is fixedly provided with a conveyor belt receiving boss 24.

[0029] The transverse pushing mechanism includes a transverse pushing cylinder 11, a transverse pushing frame 12, and a transverse pushing roller 13. The transverse pushing cylinder 11 is fixedly installed on the frame 1. The output end of the transverse pushing cylinder 11 is fixedly provided with the transverse pushing frame 12. Multiple sets of transverse pushing rollers 13 are rotatably connected inside the transverse pushing frame 12.

[0030] The transverse output mechanism 14 includes a mounting plate 15, a transverse conveyor pulley set 16, a transverse conveyor roller 17, and a second motor 18. The second motor 18 is fixedly connected to the frame 1. The mounting plate 15 is fixedly mounted on the frame 1. Multiple sets of transverse conveyor pulley sets 16 are fixedly mounted on the side of the mounting plate 15. The output end of the second motor 18 is provided with a pulley. The pulley is connected to the transverse conveyor pulley set 16 by belt drive. The transverse conveyor roller 17 is fixedly mounted inside the transverse conveyor pulley set 16, and the transverse conveyor roller 17 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 15.

[0031] When collecting the cut flat tubes, the tubes are conveyed through the feed inlet of the collection platform after being cut (see attached image). Figure 3 The flat tube then enters the feeding trough. The feeding trough adjusting cylinder 25 pushes the push plate 26 to move, causing the push plate 26 to push the flat tube onto the first receiving plate 7. At this time, the first motor 2 drives the first lead screw 3 to rotate. Since the first lead screw 3 is threadedly connected to the threaded block 4, and the mounting frame 5 is slidably connected to the first slide rail 6, and the mounting frame 5 is fixedly connected to the threaded block 4, the rotation of the first lead screw 3 can drive the threaded block 4 to move vertically downward. When the threaded block 4 moves downward, it can drive the mounting frame 5 and the first receiving plate 7 to move downward. The first lead screw 3 drives the first receiving plate 7 to move up and down. Starting from the initial position, every time the flat tube reaches the receiving plate, the first receiving plate 7 will drop by one flat tube thickness until the stacking quantity is reached. At this time, the first receiving plate 7 reaches the target position. At this time, the transverse conveyor roller 17 also uses the third motor 20 as the power source, and drives the second receiving conveyor rotating shaft 21 to rotate through the synchronous belt pulley group 23, thereby driving the second receiving conveyor belt 22 to rotate. The stacked flat tubes are then supported by the receiving bosses 24 on the second receiving conveyor belt 22. At this point, the target position of the first receiving plate 7 is the starting position of the second receiving conveyor belt 22. When the first receiving plate 7 reaches the target position, the second receiving conveyor belt 22 starts operating, with the receiving bosses 24 supporting the flat tubes instead of the first receiving plate 7. For each flat tube dropped, the second receiving conveyor belt 22 rotates by one tube thickness until the flat tube reaches the top of the transverse output mechanism 14. At this point, the first receiving plate 7, driven by the motor, causes the second lead screw 8 to rotate. Since the second lead screw 8 is threadedly connected to the mounting top plate 10, and the second slide rail 9 is slidably connected to the mounting top plate 10 for limitation, the rotation of the second lead screw 8 can move the mounting top plate 10 backward. When the second lead screw 8 retracts back to its initial position, it waits for the second receiving conveyor mechanism 19 to reach the target position. At this time, the transverse ejection mechanism... The transverse pushing cylinder 11 serves as the power source and is connected to the transverse ejector frame 12. Several transverse ejector rollers 13 are fixed on the transverse ejector frame 12. When the transverse pushing cylinder 11 moves, it pushes the transverse ejector frame 12 to move. When the transverse ejector frame 12 moves, it pushes the transverse ejector rollers 13 to move, sending the flat tubes on the second receiving conveyor belt 22 to the transverse output mechanism 14. Then, the second motor 18 serves as the power source to drive the pulleys and belts, and the belt drives the transverse conveyor pulley group 16 to rotate. When the transverse conveyor pulley group 16 rotates, it can drive the transverse conveyor roller 17 to rotate. In this way, the stacked flat tubes can be transversely conveyed to the subsequent packaging process, thereby realizing the conveying operation.

[0032] The first receiving plate 7 has an L-shaped cross section, and each set of the first receiving plate 7 is placed in the gap between two adjacent second receiving conveyor belts 22. By setting the position of the first receiving plate 7, it can move in the gap between the two second receiving conveyor belts 22 when the first receiving plate 7 moves up and down, so that the flat tube on the first receiving plate 7 can be moved to the receiving boss 24 of the conveyor belt for placement.

[0033] The conveyor belt receiving boss 24 is L-shaped, and each set of transverse push rollers 13 is set in the gap between two adjacent second receiving conveyor belts 22. With the setting of the transverse push rollers 13, when the transverse push cylinder 11 moves forward, it can drive the transverse push frame 12 to move forward. When the transverse push frame 12 moves forward, it can drive the transverse push rollers 13 to move, so that the transverse push rollers 13 can stably push the symmetrical flat tubes on the conveyor belt receiving boss 24, so that the flat tubes on the conveyor belt receiving boss 24 can move to the transverse conveyor rollers 17 for conveying.

[0034] The first receiving plate 7, the transverse pushing roller 13, and the second receiving conveyor belt 22 are all inclined. By inclining the first receiving plate 7, the transverse pushing roller 13, and the second receiving conveyor belt 22, the first receiving plate 7 and the conveyor belt receiving boss 24 can stably hold the flat tube, thereby preventing the flat tube from detaching.

[0035] The first slide rail 6 and the second slide rail 9 are both I-shaped. By setting the shape of the first slide rail 6 and the second slide rail 9, the mounting frame 5 and the mounting top plate 10 can be limited when moving, which can prevent the mounting frame 5 and the mounting top plate 10 from separating when moving, thereby improving the stability of the mounting frame 5 and the mounting top plate 10 when moving.

[0036] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0037] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to the invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
