Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of acrylic sheet production technology, specifically to an auxiliary fixing mechanism for acrylic sheet production modules. Background Technology

[0002] Acrylic sheets are a high-quality plastic material, also known as plexiglass. They are characterized by high transparency, good weather resistance, easy processing and molding, and resistance to chemical corrosion. Therefore, they are widely used in advertising signage, home decoration, handicrafts, building materials and other fields.

[0003] However, the existing technology still has the following drawbacks in practical applications:

[0004] 1. In daily use, acrylic sheets with shapes and sizes that match the actual needs need to be selected. Therefore, workers need to cut the acrylic sheets. During the cutting process, the acrylic sheets need to be moved while being cut. The existing fixing method often uses mechanical clamps, which requires tightening the bolts multiple times each time. Therefore, the operation of clamping and fixing the acrylic sheets is cumbersome. Insecure fixing will cause errors in the cutting of the acrylic sheets, which can easily lead to waste of acrylic sheets and bring greater production costs to the manufacturer.

[0005] 2. Since acrylic sheet factories produce acrylic sheets of different sizes and thicknesses, the device needs to be adjusted when cutting acrylic sheets of different sizes and thicknesses. In actual use, due to cost constraints, most existing fixing devices have a simple structure and are mostly non-adjustable, which makes them extremely inconvenient to use.

[0006] Therefore, in view of this, the present invention proposes an auxiliary fixing mechanism for acrylic sheet production modules to make up for and improve the deficiencies of the prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides an auxiliary fixing mechanism for acrylic sheet production modules, thereby resolving the technical issues raised in the background section.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: an auxiliary fixing mechanism for acrylic sheet production modules, including an operating table, a fixing frame fixedly connected to one outer wall of the operating table, the fixing frame having a U-shaped outline, a servo motor being provided at the top of the fixing frame and above the operating table, the output shaft end of the servo motor being provided through the inner wall of the top of the fixing frame, an auxiliary fixing mechanism with a fixing effect being provided at the output end of the servo motor, and an auxiliary support component with a moving effect being provided at the top of the operating table.

[0009] Furthermore, the auxiliary fixing mechanism includes a horizontal plate fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor. A hollow cylinder is inserted inside the horizontal plate. Two L-shaped rods are symmetrically fixedly connected to the outer walls of the bottom ends of the hollow cylinder. A first slide rail is fixedly connected to the bottom of the two L-shaped rods. A sliding block is slidably connected to the outer wall of the first slide rail. Six-way fixed wheels are symmetrically rotatably connected to the outer walls of the sliding blocks. The two six-way fixed wheels are coaxially designed. A rubber block is fixedly connected to the end of the six-way fixed wheel away from the center.

[0010] Furthermore, four hollow cylinders are evenly arranged inside the horizontal plate, and the number of the first slide rail and the sliding block are the same.

[0011] Furthermore, the six-way fixed rotating wheel is made of aluminum alloy, and the rubber block has an arc-shaped outline.

[0012] Furthermore, the auxiliary support assembly includes a second slide rail fixedly connected to the top of the operating table, a support plate slidably connected to the top of the second slide rail, and a handle fixedly connected to the end of the support plate away from the servo motor.

[0013] Furthermore, four slide rails are evenly arranged on the top of the operating table, and the number of slide rails is the same as that of the support plate. Multiple anti-slip grooves are evenly opened on the outer wall of the handle.

[0014] Furthermore, a fixed ring is fixedly connected to the top of the horizontal plate and directly above the hollow cylinder. The hollow cylinder is slidably engaged with the fixed ring. A threaded collar is fixedly connected to the top of the horizontal plate and outside the fixed ring. The number of fixed rings and threaded collars is the same as the number of hollow cylinders. A fixed cylinder is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded collar.

[0015] Furthermore, an air bladder is provided inside the fixed cylinder, the bottom of the air bladder is fixedly connected to the top of the hollow cylinder, a support spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the air bladder, and the bottom of the support spring is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed ring.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0017] (1) By setting an auxiliary fixing mechanism, the acrylic sheet is pushed to slide on the surface of the support plate towards the servo motor. Two 1 / 6 six-way fixed rotating wheels, together with two rubber blocks and the central shaft of the six-way fixed rotating wheels, form a triangular structure on the top of the acrylic sheet, so that the acrylic sheet can be firmly fixed on the top of the support plate, which is convenient for subsequent movement and cutting of the acrylic sheet. At the same time, this device replaces the traditional and more cumbersome fixing method, which helps to improve the processing convenience of the acrylic sheet and avoids the waste of acrylic sheet caused by unstable fixing. Meanwhile, the rubber blocks can play a protective role when fixing the acrylic sheet, avoiding scratches on the surface of the acrylic sheet.

[0018] (2) By setting a fixed ring, a threaded collar and a fixed cylinder, the height of the hollow cylinder and the first slide rail can be controlled by rotating the fixed cylinder clockwise, thereby satisfying the fixing of acrylic sheets of different thicknesses by the sliding block in conjunction with the six-way fixed wheel and the rubber block, improving the applicability of the device. By rotating the fixed cylinder counterclockwise, the height of two hollow cylinders inside the horizontal plate can be raised, so that the device can satisfy the fixing of acrylic sheets of different widths.

[0019] (3) By setting up an airbag and a support spring, the airbag will generate gas when it is squeezed downward by the fixed cylinder. The gas will be blown downward through the hollow cylinder, which can clean the surface of the first slide rail and help the sliding block slide smoothly. Attached Figure Description

[0028] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] Embodiments of the present invention

[0030] The servo motor 3 used in this technical solution is existing technology, and its model is MR-J4 series;

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 As shown, an auxiliary fixing mechanism for acrylic sheet production includes an operating table 1. A fixing frame 2 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one side of the operating table 1. The fixing frame 2 has a U-shaped outline. A servo motor 3 is set on the top of the fixing frame 2 and above the operating table 1. The output end of the servo motor 3 is set through the inner wall of the top of the fixing frame 2. An auxiliary fixing mechanism with a fixing effect is set on the output shaft end of the servo motor 3.

[0032] The auxiliary fixing mechanism includes a horizontal plate 401 fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 3. A hollow cylinder 402 is inserted inside the horizontal plate 401. Two L-shaped rods 403 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the outer walls of the bottom ends of the hollow cylinder 402. A first slide rail 404 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the two L-shaped rods 403. A sliding block 405 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the first slide rail 404. Six-way fixed wheels 406 are symmetrically rotatably connected to the outer walls of both sides of the sliding block 405. The two six-way fixed wheels 406 are coaxially designed. A rubber block 407 is fixedly connected to the end of the six-way fixed wheel 406 away from the center.

[0033] This device securely fixes the acrylic sheet to the top of the support plate 502, providing a good fixing effect and facilitating subsequent movement and cutting of the acrylic sheet. It also replaces the traditional, more cumbersome fixing method, which helps to improve the ease of processing the acrylic sheet. The rubber block 407 can play a protective role when fixing the acrylic sheet, avoiding scratches on the surface of the acrylic sheet.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 5 The preferred design is that the six-way fixed roller 406 is designed in six directions, and a rubber block 407 is fixedly connected to the end away from the central axis. This allows the two one-sixth six-way fixed rollers 406, together with the two rubber blocks 407 and the central axis of the six-way fixed rollers 406, to form a triangular structure on the top of the acrylic sheet, which improves the fixing effect. At the same time, the rubber block 407 can be used to protect the surface of the acrylic sheet.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 5 As shown, there are four hollow cylinders 402 evenly arranged inside the horizontal plate 401, the number of slide rails 404 and sliding blocks 405 are the same, the six-way fixed rotating wheel 406 is made of aluminum alloy, and the rubber block 407 has an arc shape.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 4 As shown, preferably, the top of the operating table 1 is provided with an auxiliary support component that has a movable effect;

[0037] The auxiliary support component includes a second slide rail 501 fixedly connected to the top of the operating table 1. A support plate 502 is slidably connected to the top of the second slide rail 501. A handle 503 is fixedly connected to the end of the support plate 502 away from the servo motor 3. Four second slide rails 501 are evenly arranged on the top of the operating table 1. The number of second slide rails 501 and support plates 502 is the same. Multiple anti-slip textures are evenly opened on the outer wall of the handle 503.

[0038] In particular, because the support plate 502 is relatively long, it can provide better support to the acrylic sheet. Therefore, the movement distance of the support plate 502 in the early stage of fixing the acrylic sheet will not affect the subsequent fixing of the entire acrylic sheet.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 4 The better one is that multiple anti-slip textures are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the handle 503. The anti-slip textures prevent the staff from slipping out of their hands when holding the handle 503, thus playing an anti-slip role.

[0040] Please refer to Figures 5 to 7As shown, preferably, a fixing ring 601 is fixedly connected to the top of the horizontal plate 401 and directly above the hollow cylinder 402. The hollow cylinder 402 and the fixing ring 601 are slidably engaged. A threaded collar 602 is fixedly connected to the top of the horizontal plate 401 and outside the fixing ring 601. The number of fixing rings 601 and threaded collars 602 is the same as the number of hollow cylinders 402. A fixing cylinder 603 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded collar 602. An airbag 701 is provided inside the fixing cylinder 603. The bottom of the airbag 701 is fixedly connected to the top of the hollow cylinder 402. A support spring 702 is sleeved on the outer wall of the airbag 701, and the bottom of the support spring 702 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing ring 601.

[0041] By rotating the fixing cylinder 603 clockwise downwards, the height of the hollow cylinder 402 and the first slide rail 404 can be controlled, thereby satisfying the need for the sliding block 405 to work with the six-way fixed wheel 406 and the rubber block 407 to fix acrylic sheets of different thicknesses, improving the applicability of the device. In addition, by rotating the fixing cylinder 603 counterclockwise upwards, the airbag 701 and the support spring 702 are not compressed, so the support spring 702 and the airbag 701 rebound synchronously, which is convenient for the next use. At the same time, by raising the height of two hollow cylinders 402 inside the horizontal plate 401, this device can fix acrylic sheets of different widths.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 5 Preferably, the airbag 701 can generate gas when it is compressed, and at the same time the fixed ring 601 is connected to the inside of the hollow cylinder 402. The lower opening of the hollow cylinder 402 is located directly above the first slide rail 404. Therefore, when the airbag 701 is squeezed, gas will be generated and blown downward through the hollow cylinder 402, which can clean the surface of the first slide rail 404 and help the sliding block 405 slide smoothly.

[0043] The following are the complete usage steps and working principle of the above embodiments:

[0044] When using the device, acrylic sheet is a high-quality plastic material, also known as plexiglass. It has the characteristics of high transparency, good weather resistance, easy processing and molding, and chemical corrosion resistance. Therefore, it is widely used in many fields. In daily use, it is necessary to select acrylic sheet with a shape and size that matches the actual use requirements. Therefore, the staff needs to cut the acrylic sheet. During the cutting process, since the acrylic sheet needs to be moved while cutting, if it is not firmly fixed, it will cause errors in cutting the acrylic sheet, which can easily lead to waste of acrylic sheet and bring greater production costs to the manufacturer.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 2 Board placement and adjustment

[0046] First, the worker needs to place the acrylic sheet to be cut between the bottom of the sliding block 405 and the top of the support plate 502, ensuring that the bottom of the acrylic sheet is in contact with the top of the support plate 502. The worker then checks whether the acrylic sheet is parallel to the edge of the support plate 502 when it is placed on the surface. If it is parallel, the acrylic sheet is considered to be in place; otherwise, the placement needs to be readjusted. The worker then pushes the acrylic sheet along the surface of the support plate 502 towards the servo motor 3. During this process, the support plate 502 slides inside the second slide rail 501 under the push of the acrylic sheet. Because the support plate 502 is relatively long, it can provide better support for the acrylic sheet. Therefore, the movement distance of the support plate 502 in the early stage of fixing the acrylic sheet will not affect the subsequent fixing of the entire acrylic sheet.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 5 Plate pushing and fixing

[0048] When the end of the acrylic sheet to be cut, near the servo motor 3, contacts the outer wall of the six-way fixed roller 406, the roller 406 rotates clockwise away from the servo motor 3 under the pushing action. Because the six-way fixed roller 406 is a six-way design, as it rotates clockwise, the top sixth of the roller 406 will continuously move closer to the top of the acrylic sheet, causing the rubber block 407 fixedly connected to the end of the roller 406 to contact the top of the acrylic sheet. Furthermore, as the acrylic sheet is continuously pushed forward by the operator, the six-way fixed roller 406 continues to rotate clockwise. This causes the next one-sixth rubber block 407, which is close to the acrylic sheet, to fall on top of the acrylic sheet. This causes the two one-sixth six-way fixed rotating wheels 406, together with the two rubber blocks 407 and the central axis of the six-way fixed rotating wheels 406, to form a triangular structure on top of the acrylic sheet. In mechanical structures, triangles are often used to strengthen and stabilize the overall structure. Since each side of the triangular structure bears tension or compression, it can effectively distribute external loads and resist deformation and torsion. This allows the acrylic sheet to be firmly fixed to the top of the support plate 502, achieving a good fixing effect while facilitating subsequent movement and cutting of the acrylic sheet.

[0049] Meanwhile, this device replaces the traditional and more cumbersome fixing method, which helps to improve the convenience of processing acrylic sheets, avoids the waste of acrylic sheets caused by unstable fixing, and thus reduces the production cost of manufacturers. The rubber block 407 can play a protective role when fixing acrylic sheets, avoiding scratches on the surface of the acrylic sheets.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 1 Plate cutting

[0051] In addition, after the acrylic sheet is fixed, it needs to be moved and cut simultaneously. The worker pushes the support plate 502 on the top of the second slide rail 501 towards the servo motor 3 by holding the handle 503. Since the acrylic sheet is fixed between the top of the support plate 502 and the bottom of the sliding block 405 by the pressing of the six-way fixed rotating wheel 406 and the rubber block 407, the sliding block 405 will also move when the support plate 502 slides, so that the sliding block 405 slides on the outer wall of the first slide rail 404 towards the servo motor 3, thereby achieving the purpose of moving and cutting the acrylic sheet simultaneously. After the acrylic sheet is cut, the worker pulls back the cut acrylic sheet on the surface of the support plate 502. Under the influence of the pull force, the six-way fixed rotating wheel 406 rotates counterclockwise with the rubber block 407, so that the two rubber blocks 407 are removed from the top of the acrylic sheet in turn. Then, the worker uses the handle 503 to pull back the support plate 502 to reset the support plate 502 for easy use next time.

[0052] As for adjusting the position of the sliding block 405, it is only necessary to start the servo motor 3, so that the servo motor 3 rotates and drives the horizontal plate 401 to rotate 180 degrees, thereby allowing the sliding block 405 to be readjusted to the position above the support plate 502. This reduces the difficulty of operation and reduces the need for excessive intervention by staff, which helps to improve the processing speed of acrylic sheets.

[0053] Please refer to Figure 6 Multi-size adaptation adjustment

[0054] Because the factory produces acrylic sheets of different sizes and thicknesses, before cutting, workers need to control the height of the sliding block 405 to fix acrylic sheets of different thicknesses. By rotating the fixing cylinder 603, the fixing cylinder 603 and the threaded collar 602 are threadedly connected, causing the air bladder 701 inside the fixing cylinder 603 to be compressed and push the hollow cylinder 402 downwards inside the horizontal plate 401 and the fixing ring 601. During this process, the fixing cylinder 603 also compresses the support spring 702, and when the air bladder 701 is compressed, gas is generated and blown downwards through the hollow cylinder 402, which can thus clean the surface of the first slide rail 404. This facilitates the smooth sliding of the sliding block 405. By rotating the fixing cylinder 603 clockwise downwards, the height of the hollow cylinder 402 and the first slide rail 404 can be controlled, thereby enabling the sliding block 405 to work with the six-way fixed wheel 406 and the rubber block 407 to fix acrylic sheets of different thicknesses, improving the applicability of the device. In addition, by rotating the fixing cylinder 603 counterclockwise upwards, the airbag 701 and the support spring 702 are not compressed, allowing the support spring 702 and the airbag 701 to rebound synchronously, facilitating the next use. At the same time, by raising the height of two of the hollow cylinders 402 inside the horizontal plate 401, this device can fix acrylic sheets of different widths.

[0055] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
