Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of tote bag production, and more specifically, to a fully automated intelligent shopping bag production line. Background Technology

[0002] A tote bag is a simple bag, usually with two handles, for carrying by hand. It is made from materials such as paper, PVC holographic film, non-woven fabric, industrial cardboard, and canvas. It is commonly used by businesses for product packaging or as promotional gifts for customers. Many fashion-conscious individuals also wear tote bags as part of their attire. Tote bags are also known as handle bags or handbags, and their production typically requires processing equipment.

[0003] Based on the above, the inventors have discovered that existing tote bag production equipment mostly requires manual assistance during the production process to complete the cutting, sewing, and folding of the tote bags, which greatly reduces the automation of tote bag production. At the same time, most existing tote bag processing equipment is decentralized, which means that the tote bags need to be constantly transferred to various devices for processing during the processing. Therefore, in view of this, the inventors have studied and improved the existing structure to provide a fully automatic intelligent shopping bag production line, in order to achieve a more practical purpose.

[0045] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0046] Example:

[0047] Please see Figure 1-4 A fully automated intelligent shopping bag production line includes a support frame A1, a support frame B2 at one end of the support frame A1, and a support frame C3 at one end of the support frame B2. A pair of support cylinders 4 are fixedly installed on one side of the top of the support frame A1, and a fabric roller 5 is placed between the pair of support cylinders 4. A digital printing device 6 is fixedly installed at the top of the support frame A1, and a dryer 7 is placed on one side of the digital printing device 6. A circular knife cutting machine 8 is fixedly installed at the top of the support frame A1. A fabric sheet roller turning machine 9 is fixedly installed on one side of the top of the support frame B2, and a fixed-length material pulling device 10 is fixedly installed on the other side of the top of the support frame B2. A handle-carrying feeder 11 is fixedly installed on one side of the fixed-length material pulling device 10. A fabric folding machine 12 is fixedly installed on the top of the bracket B2. A handle cutting and feeding device 13 is fixedly installed on one side of the bracket B2. A pair of primary sewing machines 14 and a pair of secondary sewing machines 15 are fixedly installed on the top of the bracket B2. A material picking machine 16 is fixedly installed on the top of the bracket B2. An electrical control box 17 is fixedly installed on one side of the bracket B2. This production line can effectively improve the convenience and efficiency of tote bag processing and production, and increase the automation of equipment use.

[0048] See Figure 1 , 2The brackets A1, B2, and C3 are U-shaped, and their ends that are close to each other are fixedly connected by connectors. The digital printing equipment 6 is located on one side of the fabric roller 5, and the dryer 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the bracket A1. The fixed-length feeding device 10 is located on one side of the fabric roll turning machine 9, and the handle cutting and feeding device 13 is located inside the bracket B2. By setting the positions of each device and machine, the smoothness of the production line processing can be effectively improved.

[0049] The fabric roll turning machine 9 includes a parallel double turning roller shaft 901. A drive motor is provided on the side of the parallel double turning roller shaft 901. The output end of the drive motor is connected to the parallel double turning roller shaft 901 through a coupling.

[0050] When the drive motor is working, it drives the parallel double-turning roller shaft 901 to rotate. The parallel double-turning roller shaft 901 and the belt and two turning roller shafts form a structure. When the fabric moves on the parallel double-turning roller shaft 901, it can rotate with the belt. When the fabric flips over the side of the roller, the flipping is completed.

[0051] The fixed-length material pulling equipment 10 is equipped with several laying tracks 1001, which are arranged in parallel and fixed on the support A1. Flat sliding parts 1002 are slidably connected to the laying tracks 1001.

[0052] The leveling slide 1002 is driven by a hydraulic rod and moves back and forth on the laying track 1001. At this time, the pressing force between the leveling slide 1002 and the laying track 1001 is controlled to drive the fabric on the laying track 1001 to adjust its length until the fabric reaches the specified length.

[0053] The handle-driven feeding machine 11 includes a feeding lifting frame 1101, and a push-out box 1102 is provided on one side of the top of the feeding lifting frame 1101;

[0054] During the feeding process, the feeding lifting frame 1101 transports the handle material to the top and then to the ejection box 1102. At this time, the hydraulic push rod inside the ejection box 1102 can accurately guide the handle material onto the fabric folding machine 12.

[0055] The fabric folding machine 12 includes a supporting base plate 1201, which is fixed in the middle of the support B2. A cover plate 1202 is provided on the support B2 and above the supporting base plate 1201. A robot arm 1203 is provided between the top of the cover plate 1202 and the support B2.

[0056] When folding the fabric edges, the fabric is placed on the support base plate 1201. At this time, the robot arm 1203 moves the position of the cover plate 1202 and moves it from one end of the fabric to the other end to achieve the folding of the fabric edges.

[0057] The handle-operated cutting and feeding device 13 includes a pressure-bearing base plate 1301, which is slidably connected to the top of the support B2. A hydraulic support rod 1302 is fixedly installed at the top of the pressure-bearing base plate 1301, and a cutting tool 1303 is fixedly installed at the top of the hydraulic support rod 1302.

[0058] When cutting the handle, adjust the position of the pressure base plate 1301 on the bracket B2, and then use the hydraulic support rod 1302 to change the height of the cutting blade 1303 until the cutting blade 1303 completes the cutting of the handle.

[0059] See Figure 1 , 2 The positions of the pair of primary sewing machines 14 are symmetrical, and the positions of the pair of secondary sewing machines 15 correspond to the positions of the pair of primary sewing machines 14. By setting the positions of the primary sewing machines 14 and the secondary sewing machines 15, the accuracy of sewing stitching during the processing of fabric bag materials can be effectively improved.

[0060] The single-operation sewing machine 14 includes a sewing machine body 1401 and a mounting base 1402. The sewing machine body 1401 and the mounting base 1402 are fixed together as one piece, and the mounting base 1402 is fixed to the bracket B2 by bolts.

[0061] The structure of the secondary sewing machine 15 is the same as that of the primary sewing machine 14.

[0062] When performing sewing operations, the sewing machine body 1401 is the same as a common sewing machine. First, the primary sewing machine 14 sews the fabric strip, and then the secondary sewing machine 15 sews the fabric strip in a denser manner, thus completing the entire sewing operation.

[0063] See Figure 1 A semi-finished product folding machine 18 is fixedly installed at the top of bracket C3. Sewing machines 19 on both sides of the bag body are fixedly connected to the top of bracket C3. An automatic flat bag feeder 20 is fixedly installed at the top of bracket C3. A three-dimensional bag corner cutting sewing machine 21 is fixedly connected to one side of bracket C3. The semi-finished product folding machine 18 is located on the side of one end of the feeding machine 16. The sewing machines 19 on both sides of the bag body are located at one end of the semi-finished product folding machine 18. The automatic flat bag feeder 20 is located on the inside of bracket C3. The positions of the three-dimensional bag corner cutting sewing machine 21 and the automatic flat bag feeder 20 are symmetrical. A control panel 22 is set on one side of bracket B2. The control panel 22 is connected to one side of bracket B2 through a rotating shaft. The three-dimensional bag corner cutting sewing machine 21 enables the production line to process and produce different products. At the same time, the control panel 22 can effectively control the operation and running of various equipment and machines.

[0064] The semi-finished product folding machine 18 includes a progressive track 1801 and a drive shaft 1802, with the drive shaft 1802 located at both ends of the progressive track 1801.

[0065] When folding the shopping bag, the motor on one side of the drive shaft 1802 controls the rotation of the drive shaft 1802, and then controls the transmission of the gradient track 1801. When the gradient track 1801 moves, the shopping bag forms creases in the gaps of the gradient track 1801 and completes the folding operation.

[0066] The three-dimensional bag corner cutting sewing machine 21 includes several sewing panels 2101, and each of the several sewing panels 2101 is equipped with a hydraulic movable pusher 2102.

[0067] When sewing the shopping bag, the hydraulic actuator 2102 can be used to push the sewing panel 2101 and the shopping bag structure to different positions in sequence, and finally complete the sewing of the corner of the shopping bag.

[0068] In use: First, the material on the fabric roller 5 enters the digital printing equipment 6 for printing. After printing, the material is effectively and quickly dried by the dryer 7 to prevent scratches on the printed surface. At the same time, the fabric is cut by the circular cutter 8. Then, the material is flipped by the fabric roller flipping machine 9 to make it flatter. The length of the material is set by the fixed-length feeding device 10. Next, the handle material is fed by the handle belt feeder 11 and bent by the fabric folding machine 12. Then, the handle is cut by the handle cutting and feeding device 13 and sewn by the primary sewing machine 14 and the secondary sewing machine 15. The bag body is folded by the semi-finished product folding machine 18. Then, the semi-finished bag body is sewn by the bag body side sewing machines 19 to form the bag body. Finally, the corners of the bag body are sewn by the three-dimensional bag corner cutting sewing machine 21.
