A carpet line material transfer exchange hand tool

Abstract

This invention relates to a material transfer and exchange mechanism for a carpet production line. The mechanism comprises a frame, a carpet support platform, a carpet translation module, and a carpet clamping module. The carpet translation module uses a needle holder, driven by a linear motor, to pass through the edge of the carpet on the support platform, lifting the carpet off the platform. Then, driven by a third motor, it moves to the position of a clamping cylinder. A second motor controls the position of the clamping cylinder in the longitudinal beam direction, and a first motor controls the width between the clamping cylinders. The clamping cylinder drives the carpet clamp to hold the edge of the carpet. Finally, the linear motor drives the needle holder to leave the carpet, and the third motor moves the support side frame out. This material transfer mechanism enables rapid and precise material transfer in the carpet production line, improving production efficiency.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of carpet production line technology, and more particularly to a material conveying and exchanging mechanism for a carpet production line. Background Technology

[0002] Carpets typically require heat treatment during production. A common method for heating carpets is to hold them in place with a heating plate and heat both sides simultaneously. However, carpets are usually placed on a support platform, which prevents them from being directly fed into the clamping structure due to the platform's support function. This often requires manual operation, which is quite cumbersome. Therefore, an exchange mechanism is needed to move the carpet from the support platform to the clamping mechanism for subsequent heating operations. Summary of the Invention
