[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0016] The present invention discloses a die-cutting device for preparing a composite material protective film. The protective film product after die-cutting is concave in shape.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the present invention discloses a composite material protective film preparation die-cutting device, wherein the protective film 22 includes a substrate layer, a glue layer, a heat insulation layer and a hot air layer, the protective film 22 is circular as a whole, and can also be square or other closed polygonal shapes as needed, the die-cutting device at least includes a base plate 1, an annular cutter 2 installed on the upper surface of the base plate 1, and a pressing plate 3 arranged parallel to the annular cutter 2, the tip of the annular cutter 2 protrudes from the surface of the base plate 1, when in use, the protective film 22 is placed between the base plate 1 and the pressing plate 3, the pressing plate 3 is moved downward by a hydraulic device, and the annular cutter 2 cuts the protective film 22 into a desired shape.

[0028] Among them, the annular cutter 2 divides the upper surface of the base plate 1 into an inner blanking area and an outer residual area. After being formed, the protective film 22 falls into the blanking area. Corresponding to the blanking area, a number of positive pressure air holes 4 are opened on the lower surface of the pressing plate 3. In some other embodiments, the upper ends of the positive pressure air holes 4 are connected to the fan. Through the action of the fan, the positive pressure air holes 4 are used to provide positive pressure wind force toward the side where the base plate 1 is located, so as to assist the blanking of the edge of the protective film 22 and reduce the displacement difference between the middle and edge parts of the protective film 22.

[0029] Specifically, the positive pressure air holes 4 disclosed in the present invention are formed on four concentric circles with the center of the annular cutter 2 as the center. The positive pressure air holes 4 on the same circumference are grouped together, and each group of positive pressure air holes 4 is evenly distributed on the circumference thereof. The positive pressure air holes 4 close to the outside are denser, and each group of positive pressure air holes 4 is correspondingly connected to a positive pressure delivery device.

[0030] In some other embodiments, the number of groups of positive pressure air holes 4 can be increased as needed, and in order to more conveniently control the pressure, it is set to 4 groups. Since the extrusion friction of the protective film 22 closest to the cutter is the largest, the present invention makes the delivery pressure of the positive pressure delivery device positively correlated with the radius of the circle where the group of positive pressure air holes 4 is located, that is, the protective film 22 at the edge has a greater positive pressure, thereby ensuring the uniformity of deformation of each point on the protective film 22, so that the blanking state of the protective film 22 is optimized. Of course, the specific data of the pressure can be obtained based on a limited number of experiments to ensure that the protective film 22 has the best die-cutting accuracy.

[0031] In this embodiment, a top plate 5 is arranged above the pressing plate 3 in parallel, and the top plate 5 is also circular. A vertical guide structure 6 is arranged between the pressing plate 3 and the top plate 5. The vertical guide structure 6 in this embodiment includes a guide post and a limit plate. The guide post is fixed on the pressing plate 3, and the upper end of the guide post passes through the upper end guide hole of the top plate 5. The guide post is fixedly connected with the limit plate to limit the farthest position between the top plate 5 and the pressing plate 3. Through the guiding effect of the guide post, the displacement direction between the pressing plate 3 and the top plate 5 can be along the normal direction of the top plate 5 when relative displacement occurs.

[0032] When in use, the top plate 5 is connected to a hydraulic device, which can be a conventional hydraulic press, and the positive pressure delivery device includes an elastic airbag 7 installed between the top plate 5 and the pressure plate 3, and the elastic airbag 7 is connected to the exhaust pipe 8, and the exhaust pipe 8 is installed in the positive pressure air hole 4. When the pressure plate 3 and the top plate 5 are relatively displaced, the top plate 5 can press the elastic airbag 7 downward, so that the gas in the airbag is squeezed out from the exhaust pipe 8, which plays a role of positive pressure exhaust. It can be understood that the size of the air pressure can be changed by the size of the elastic airbag 7. When a larger elastic airbag 7 is set, a faster positive pressure can be achieved.

[0033] In some other embodiments, the vertical guide structure 6 may adopt conventional guide rails and sliders to limit the relative displacement direction between the top plate 5 and the pressure plate 3 through the effect of sliding fit.

[0034] In this embodiment, a suction hole 9 is provided on the top plate 5, and a suction pipe 10 is installed in the suction hole 9. The suction pipe 10 is connected to the elastic airbag 7, and a one-way valve 11 is installed in the suction pipe 10 and the exhaust pipe 8. The elastic airbag 7 has a certain elastic effect. After the top plate 5 is away from the pressure plate 3, the one-way valve 11 in the suction pipe 10 is used to control the elastic airbag 7 to unidirectionally inlet air from the suction pipe 10, so as to replenish the gas. Of course, the one-way valve 11 in the exhaust pipe 8 is used for the elastic airbag 7 to unidirectionally exhaust air from the exhaust pipe 8 to ensure sufficient positive gas pressure.

[0035] In this embodiment, a heating device 12 is installed on the inner side of the top plate 5, and the heating device 12 is installed on the outer side of the air intake pipe 10. In this embodiment, the heating device 12 adopts a resistance wire, which is fixed inside the top plate 5. The air intake pipe 10 can be heated by the resistance wire, and the gas discharged from the exhaust pipe 8 can be heated, which can soften the protective film 22 to a certain extent, increase the bonding force between the composite material layers after cutting, and further reduce the interlayer offset of the composite material protective film 22.

[0036] In this embodiment, an inner elastic support block 13 is installed on the inner side of the annular cutter 2, and the area of ​​the inner elastic support block 13 is adapted to the area of ​​the blanking area. An outer elastic support block 14 is installed on the outer side of the annular cutter 2, and the area of ​​the outer elastic support block 14 is adapted to the area of ​​the residual material area. By providing an elastic support block, the middle part of the protective film 22 can be elastically supported to reduce the deformation of the protective film 22 during die cutting. In this embodiment, the elastic support block is a rubber block, which can have a large elastic recovery ability to ensure the consistency of the protective film 22 after processing.

[0037] In this embodiment, hard balancing blocks 15, such as plastic blocks, are installed on the outside of the inner elastic support block 13 and the outer elastic support block 14. Since the surface of the hard balancing block 15 has a large tension, the deformation caused by the direct contact between the protective film 22 and the contact surface of the elastic support block can be avoided, thereby preventing the protective film 22 from wrinkling. In the device of the present invention, by setting the hard balancing block 15 on the upper side of the elastic support block, it can guide the deformation of the elastic support block, and the irregular deformation of the surface elastic support block causes an impact on the protective film 22, thereby ensuring the uniform quality of the protective film 22.

[0038] In this embodiment, an annular base 16 is installed on the outer side of the annular cutter 2, and a support ring 17 is slidably arranged inside the annular base 16. An annular flange 18 is formed on the inner and outer sides of the support ring 17. The hard balance block 15 abuts against the lower surface of the annular flange 18. An elastic support member 19 is arranged at the bottom of the support ring 17. The edge of the protective film 22 is supported by the support ring 17, and the elastic support block can be supplemented with support, thereby further reducing the deformation at the edge of the protective film 22.

[0039] In this embodiment, a conical groove is formed on the inner side of the support ring 17, and an elastic filling surface 21 is installed on the inner wall of the conical groove. The cutter can compress the elastic filling surface 21 when extending, and the elastic filling surface 21 can also play a role of supplementary support, so that the support area of ​​the protective film 22 can be maximized to prevent the occurrence of technical problems.

[0040] The present invention discloses a process for preparing a composite material protective film 22 and a device for preparing a composite material protective film 22 based on any of the above items. During operation, the composite material protective film 22 is first placed on the upper side of the annular cutter 2, and a vertical downward pressure is applied to the pressure plate 3, so that the pressure plate 3 presses the composite material protective film 22 to the annular cutter 2 to achieve die-cutting. At this time, each group of positive pressure conveying devices is started from the outside to the inside according to the distribution radius of the positive pressure air holes 4, to ensure that the outermost positive pressure air holes 4 have the largest positive pressure and start to provide wind force first, to provide positive pressure from top to bottom for the outer edge of the protective film 22 after die-cutting, and to reduce slippage between the composite materials.

[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made in form and details without departing from the scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
