Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cooling mats, and in particular to a production process of cooling mats. Background Art

[0002] Summer mats are usually produced automatically using summer mat weaving machines.

[0003] Now it is necessary to weave a summer mat, which comprises warp weaving lines and weft weaving strips, wherein the warp weaving lines are polyester lines, the weft weaving strips are PE imitation rattan strips, and the weft weaving strips are flat and wide strips.

[0004] During conventional mat weaving machine production, the weft yarn is buffered in a weft feeder before entering the weaving machine for weaving. However, due to the wide and flat shape of the weft yarn, the weft feeder is not suitable for this type of weaving machine. When the weft feeder is not used, the weft yarn is directly rolled out from the unwinding tray. Due to the intermittent and rapid feeding of the weft yarn, the unwinding tray has a large rotational inertia. Each time the weft yarn is fed, the rotational inertia causes excessive unwinding, resulting in knots or the weft yarn jumping around. This prevents the automated production from proceeding smoothly. Therefore, it is urgent to find a way to ensure the stable automated weaving of wide and flat weft yarns. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to realize the automatic weaving of flat and wide PE imitation rattan strips, this technical solution provides a production process for a summer mat.

[0006] The purpose of this technical solution is achieved in this way:

[0007] A production process for a summer mat comprises the following steps:

[0008] Weft braiding strips are unwound and stacked under the action of gravity;

[0009] A weft weaving strip organizing line is used to keep one wide side of the flat and wide weft weaving strip in the same direction so as to be introduced into the weft weaving inlet of the summer mat weaving machine;

[0010] Weaving, the warp weaving lines and the weft weaving strips are all introduced into the mat weaving machine, and the mat weaving machine is operated to realize the mat weaving.

[0011] Through the above technical solution, the stacking of the weft braiding strips under the action of gravity is used as a pre-processing. When the weft braiding strips are fed, the tail end is introduced into the weft knitting entrance for use. The positioning of the weft braiding strips is coordinated with the unwinding and stacking, which buffers the conveying inertia of the weft braiding strips, realizes the stable feeding of the weft braiding strips, and realizes the stable operation of the automatic weaving of flat and wide weft yarns.

[0012] Preferably, in the braided strip unwinding step, a storage barrel is used, and the weft braided strips are stacked in the storage barrel. During the stacking process of the weft braided strips, the flat and wide characteristics and the limitation of the inner wall of the storage barrel (1) enable the braided strips to be stacked upward layer by layer;

[0013] Before stacking, the starting end is fixed to the barrel mouth or barrel wall in a detachable manner, and after stacking is completed, the tail end is fixed to the barrel mouth or barrel wall in a detachable manner.

[0014] Through the above technical solution, the starting end and the tail end are fixed to the barrel mouth or the barrel wall in a detachable manner. On the one hand, it prevents the ends from being intertwined and causing knots after the storage barrels are stacked. On the other hand, in actual application, it is convenient to find the tail end and the starting end in time, and the stacked materials are more convenient to use.

[0015] Preferably, when the starting end and the tail end of the weft braiding strip are fixed, identification marks are used for identification.

[0016] With the above technical solution, the starting end and the tail end are distinguished by the identification mark, making the application more convenient.

[0017] Preferably, in the weft braiding strip arranging step, a wire arranging device is used, which includes a wire arranging seat and an elastic abutment plate arranged on the wire arranging seat, and the elastic abutment plate is used to press the end surface of the wide surface of the weft braiding strip for positioning.

[0018] With the above technical solution, the elastic abutment plate is pressed against the wide surface of the weft braiding strip for positioning, so that the weft braiding strip is more uniform when entering the weft braiding entrance, and the overall braiding is more stable.

[0019] Preferably, there are two elastic support plates, which extend toward the weft knitting inlet of the mat weaving machine, and the two elastic support plates are close to each other and pressed against each other toward the weft knitting inlet, and the weft knitting strip passes between the two elastic support plates.

[0020] Through the above technical solution, the two elastic abutments are pressed tightly together, and the two elastic abutments are close to each other to form a material guide port, which facilitates the introduction and passage of the weft braiding strips. During the transportation of the weft braiding strips, the two elastic abutments compensate each other, making the passage of the weft braiding strips more stable.

[0021] Preferably, a plurality of the wire management devices are provided along the conveying direction of the weft braiding strips.

[0022] Through the above technical solution, multiple wire management devices work together to achieve a better wire management effect and make the overall weaving more stable.

[0023] Preferably, the upper cover of the storage bucket is provided with a bucket cover, and the bucket cover is provided with a material guide tube, and the end of the material guide tube away from the bucket cover extends toward the wire management device, and the material guide tube is used for allowing the weft braiding strips to pass through.

[0024] Through the above technical solution, the weft braiding strip is a PE imitation rattan strip, and its material determines that it has a certain elasticity, which causes the weft braiding strip to oscillate due to its own elastic force during the transportation of the weft braiding strip. The weft braiding strip is restricted by the material guide tube, so that the oscillation range of the weft braiding strip is limited to the material guide tube, thereby making the transportation of the weft braiding strip more stable.

[0025] Preferably, the material guiding tube is in the shape of a straight rod or a spiral.

[0026] Through the above technical solution, it is selected according to actual conditions. When the material guide tube is spiral, the overall installation space can be saved. In addition, the spiral path has more contact points between the inner wall of the material guide tube and the weft braiding strip, which can further alleviate the oscillation of the weft braiding strip.

[0027] Preferably, the barrel cover is provided with an adapter, and the material guide tube is connected to the barrel cover via the adapter.

[0028] Through the above technical solution, the material guide tube is connected to the barrel cover through an adapter, making the installation of the material guide tube more convenient.

[0029] Preferably, in the weaving step, continuous feeding is achieved by splicing the starting end of one storage bucket with the tail end of another storage bucket.

[0030] Through the above technical solution, by splicing the starting end with the tail end of another storage bucket, continuous feeding is achieved, the situation of stopping to replace the storage bucket is reduced, and the weaving operation is made more stable.

[0031] Compared with the existing technology, this technical solution has the following outstanding and beneficial technical effects:

[0032] 1. This technical solution buffers the conveying inertia of the weft braiding strips by unwinding and stacking and coordinating the positioning of the weft yarns, thus achieving stable feeding of the weft braiding strips and realizing stable operation of automatic weaving of flat and wide weft yarns;

[0033] 2. This technical solution makes the application of stacking materials more convenient through the detachable and fixed starting and tail ends;

[0034] 3. This technical solution limits the weft braiding strips through the material guide tube, so that the oscillation range of the weft braiding strips is limited to the material guide tube, thereby making the transportation of the weft braiding strips more stable.

[0038] The specific implementation of the technical solution is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0039] Example:

[0040] A production process for a summer mat comprises the following steps:

[0041] S1, weft braid unwinding, the weft braid unwinding under the action of gravity to form a stack. Figure 1 In this step, a storage bucket 1 is used to store the stacked weft woven strips. The storage bucket 1 is a round barrel. After the weft woven strips are unwound from the unwinding disk, they sag under the action of gravity and are stacked in the storage bucket 1. During the drooping process, the flat and wide shape is used. The flat and wide strips are thin in the thickness direction and have poor bending resistance in the thickness direction. Cooperating with the limit of the inner wall of the storage bucket 1, when the weft woven strips are stacked, they are preferentially bent in the direction of the wide side. When the weft woven strips are against the inner wall of the storage bucket 1, the arc guide of the inner wall cooperates with the action of gravity to guide the weft woven lines to bend, thereby causing the weft woven strips to deform and fold in a direction deviating from the previous direction. The overall weft woven strip stacking path is almost distributed around the axis of the storage bucket, so that the stack is almost fully covered in the storage bucket 1 and stacked upward layer by layer.

[0042] Before stacking, the starting end is fixed to the barrel mouth or barrel wall in a detachable manner, and after stacking is completed, the tail end is fixed to the barrel mouth or barrel wall in a detachable manner. The specific detachable fixing method can be fixed by adhesive tape, or a clip can be fixed at the corresponding position and fixed by clamping with the clip. Considering the convenience of actual use, the fixing position is generally set at the barrel mouth and the outer wall of the barrel. In some cases, the fixing position can also be set at the inner wall of the barrel. The fixing of the starting end and the tail end is used for identification through identification marks. One type of identification mark can be position identification, by fixing the starting end to the barrel mouth or the inner wall of the barrel, and fixing the tail end at a position different from the starting end. Of course, an identification strip can also be added, and the identification strip can be used for distinction.

[0043] The storage bucket 1 is covered with a bucket cover 2, which is placed and covered with the upper end of the storage bucket 1. The bucket cover 2 is removed when the weft braiding strips need to be stacked. The bucket cover 2 is provided with a material guide tube 3, which is a hard tube, such as a plastic tube or a metal tube. When the bucket cover 2 is covered with the storage bucket 1, one end of the material guide tube 3 is connected to the storage space of the storage bucket 1, and the material guide tube 3 is used for the passage of the weft braiding strips. The weft braiding strips are PE imitation rattan, and their material determines that they have a certain elasticity, which causes the weft braiding strips to oscillate due to their own elastic force during the transportation process. The weft braiding strips are restricted by the material guide tube 3, so that the oscillation range of the weft braiding strips is limited to the material guide tube 3, thereby making the transportation of the weft braiding strips more stable.

[0044] To facilitate the installation of the guide tube 3, an adapter 4 is fixed to the barrel cover 2, and the guide tube 3 is connected to the barrel cover 2 through the adapter 4. In this example, the adapter 4 is an arc-shaped connector, one end of which is plugged into the barrel cover 2 to achieve a fixed connection, and the other end is plugged into the guide tube 3 to achieve a fixed connection. Of course, in practice, the adapter 4 can also be fixed to the barrel cover 2 and the guide tube 3 by bonding or threading. In actual use, the guide tube 3 is a straight rod or a spiral shape, which is selected according to the use situation. When the guide tube 3 is spiral, the overall installation space can be saved. In addition, the spiral path allows the inner wall of the guide tube to fit more closely with the weft braiding strip, which can further alleviate the vibration of the weft braiding strip.

[0045] S2, weft weaving strip arrangement line, through which one wide side of the flat wide weft weaving strip is kept in the same direction for introduction into the weft knitting inlet of the mat weaving machine; see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this step, a wire management device 5 is used. The wire management device 5 is fixed relative to the summer mat weaving machine. The end of the material guide tube 3 away from the barrel cover 2 extends toward the wire management device 5, and the end of the material guide tube 3 away from the barrel cover 2 is located near the wire management device 5. A support structure is added to the end of the material guide tube 3 away from the barrel cover 2. The support structure supports the material guide tube 3, making the position of the material guide tube 3 more stable.

[0046] There are multiple wire management devices 5 along the conveying direction of the weft braiding strips. Each wire management device 5 includes a wire management seat 51 and an elastic push plate 52 arranged on the wire management seat 51. The elastic push plate 52 is pressed against the end face of the wide side of the weft braiding strip for positioning. In this example, there are two elastic push plates 52 for each wire management device 5. The two elastic push plates 52 extend toward the weft braiding inlet of the summer mat weaving machine, and the two elastic push plates 52 are close to each other in the direction of the weft braiding inlet and form a mutual pressure. The weft braiding strip passes between the two elastic push plates 52. The elastic bottom plate is a thin metal plate, such as a stainless steel plate or an iron plate. The two elastic push plates 52 are pressed against each other. The two elastic push plates 52 are close to each other to form a material guide port, which facilitates the introduction and passage of the weft braiding strips. During the conveying process of the weft braiding strips, the two elastic push plates 52 form mutual compensation, making the passage of the weft braiding strips more stable. In each wire management device 5, a wire guide plate 6 is provided at the wire management device 5 farthest from the weft knitting entrance. The wire guide plate 6 has a wire hole 7. The wire hole 7 is used to guide the weft knitting strips between the two elastic base plates, so that the wire management of the weft knitting strips is more stable.

[0047] S3, weaving, the warp weaving yarn and the weft weaving strip are introduced into the mat weaving machine, and the mat weaving machine is operated to weave the mat. In this step, by splicing the starting end of the weft weaving strip in the current storage bucket 1 with the tail end of the weft weaving strip in another storage bucket 1, continuous feeding can be achieved, reducing the need to stop the machine to replace the storage bucket 1, making the weaving operation more stable.
