Detailed Implementation

[0016] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described in detail below through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0017] A tape production line is a type of equipment used to produce tapes, encompassing a series of production processes from raw material preparation to finished product packaging. The main processing steps of a tape production line include: 1) Raw material preparation: The main raw materials include BOPP film and pressure-sensitive adhesive. BOPP film is the base material of the tape, and pressure-sensitive adhesive is the adhesive component. 2) Adhesive application: The pressure-sensitive adhesive is evenly applied to the BOPP film. There are various application methods, such as blade application and roller application. 3) Winding the BOPP film onto the tape roll 1.

[0018] In step 3), the tape roll 1 is made by first rolling cardboard into a tube and then cutting it to the required length. Before implementing step 3), the cut tape rolls 1 need to be arranged in a straight line at intervals to facilitate wrapping the BOPP film around the tape rolls 1. However, existing equipment for sorting and arranging the cut tape rolls 1 is not very efficient.

[0019] To address the aforementioned problems, one objective of this invention is to provide a tape roll arrangement device for adjusting randomly placed tape rolls 1 to be placed in a specific direction and arranged sequentially; the tape roll 1 is a hollow cylinder, including a circumferential surface and two side surfaces; the tape roll arrangement device includes a storage compartment 2 for temporarily storing randomly placed tape rolls 1, a flat storage compartment 3 for laying tape rolls 1 flat, and a vertical storage compartment 4 for rotating the flat tape rolls 1 to a vertical position; The storage compartment 2 includes an inclined front side plate 21 and a rear side plate 22. The front side plate 21 is provided with a push-out assembly, which can move on the surface of the front side plate 21. When the push-out assembly moves from the bottom of the front side plate 21 to the top plate 32, it can transport the tape roll 1 with its side in contact with the front side plate 21 to the flat storage compartment 3, and make the tape roll 1 with its circumferential surface in contact with the front side plate 21 separate from the front side plate 21 and slide between the push-out assembly and the rear side plate 22. The inclined rear side plate 22 is used to enable the tape roll 1 to contact the front side plate 21. The flat storage compartment 3 includes an inclined bottom plate 31 and a top plate 32, and the flat tape roll 1 is between the top plate 32 and the bottom plate 31. The vertical storage compartment 4 includes a slide for rotating the flat tape roll 1 to a vertical position, and the top of the slide is connected to the flat storage compartment 3.

[0020] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, after the tape tube 1 is cut into a suitable length, it is transported to the storage bin 2 by a conveyor belt or other means. The tape tube 1 is arranged randomly in the storage bin 2.

[0021] like Figure 2 As shown, the storage compartment 2 includes a front panel 21 and a rear panel 22. The front panel 21 and the rear panel 22 are arranged in a "V" shape. The bottom of the front panel 21 and the rear panel 22 form an angle. The tape tube 1 can only be pushed up by the ejection component when it comes into contact with the front panel 21. The angle at the bottom can gather the remaining tape tube 1. The storage compartment 2 can also be pushed up by the ejection component when there are only a few tape tubes 1 in it.

[0022] The ejector assembly is a component that can slide along the upper surface of the front side plate 21. The top of the ejector assembly has an ejector portion 23, which is a step of a certain width. The step surface forms a certain angle with the surface of the front side plate 21, which can be 70° to 100°, preferably 80°. The width of the ejector portion 23 can be 0.8 to 1.5 times the width of the tape tube 1, preferably 1.3 times. The width of the ejector portion 23 also needs to be less than the radius of the tape tube 1.

[0023] When the ejector 23 moves to the bottom of the front side plate 21, the tape rolls 1 in the storage compartment 2 that are close to the front side plate 21 can come into contact with the front side plate 21. Since these tape rolls 1 are placed randomly, some of the tape rolls 1 that come into contact with the front side plate 21 have their sides in contact with the front side plate 21, while others have their circumferential surfaces in contact with the front side plate 21.

[0024] When the ejector 23 moves to the top of the front side plate 21, the tape tube 1, whose side surface contacts the front side plate 21, can be pushed up by the ejector 23 because the width of the step surface is 0.8 to 1.5 times the width of the tape tube 1, and the width of the ejector 23 needs to be less than the radius of the tape tube 1. Meanwhile, the tape tube 1 whose circumferential surface contacts the front side plate 21 will roll off the ejector 23 because its center of gravity is outside the ejector 23.

[0025] Figure 11 The diagram shows the state of the tape roll 1 on the ejector 23. The tape roll 1 on the left side is in contact with the front side plate 21 and can be pushed up by the ejector 23. The tape roll 1 on the right side is in contact with the front side plate 21 on its circumferential surface and will roll off the ejector 23.

[0026] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 as well as Figure 7 As shown, the bottom plate 31 and front side plate 21 of the flat storage compartment 3 are in a "^" shape, and the flat storage compartment 3 and the front side plate 21 are inclined at an angle. The push-out part 23 can push the tape tube 1 to the top, and the tape tube 1 can flip over the top and slide into the bottom plate 31, and then slide downward between the top plate 32 and the bottom plate 31 under the influence of gravity. The vertical storage compartment 4 is used to rotate the tape tube 1 from the flat state to the vertical state.

[0027] Figure 12 The diagram shows the state where the tape tube 1 is pushed to the top of the front panel 21. The tape tube 1 on the left side tends to flip towards the bottom plate 31 due to gravity, while the tape tube 1 on the right side has already flipped onto the flip plate 33. The upper edge of the top plate 32 can accommodate the tape tube 1 that is flipping to the bottom plate 31 and then flipping it over to the outside of the device.

[0028] A tape roll arrangement device places the cut tape roll 1 in a storage compartment 2. An ejection component can push the flat tape roll 1 into a flat storage compartment 3. The tape roll 1 slides downward in the flat storage compartment 3 under gravity. The flat storage compartment 3 includes multiple flat channels arranged in sequence. The tape roll 1 transferred to the flat storage compartment 3 can be arranged in these flat channels and then slide into a vertical storage compartment 4 under gravity. The vertically placed tape roll 1 can facilitate the wrapping of BOPP film around the tape roll 1.

[0029] Furthermore, the ejection assembly includes a push plate and a first driver capable of driving the push plate to move, wherein the width of the push plate is smaller than the radius of the tape tube 1; When the pusher moves to a position close to the bottom of the front side plate 21, the tape tube 1 inside the storage compartment 2 that is close to the front side plate 21 comes into contact with the front side plate 21; when the pusher moves toward the top of the front side plate 21, the tape tube 1 on the pusher assembly that is in contact with the front side plate 21 on its side can be stably conveyed to the flat storage compartment 3 by the pusher, and the tape tube 1 that is in contact with the front side plate 21 on its circumferential surface slides off the pusher.

[0030] In this embodiment, the first driver can be a motor 61 or a linear motor or other component that can drive the push plate to reciprocate linearly. When the push plate moves to the bottom of the front side plate 21, the tape tubes 1 in the storage compartment 2 that are close to the front side plate 21 can contact the front side plate 21. Since these tape tubes 1 are placed randomly, among these tape tubes 1 that contact the front side plate 21, some of them have their side surfaces in contact with the front side plate 21, and some have their circumferential surfaces in contact with the front side plate 21.

[0031] When the pusher moves towards the top of the front side plate 21, since the width of the pusher is 0.8 to 1.5 times the width of the tape tube 1, and the width of the pusher is also smaller than the radius of the tape tube 1, the tape tube 1 that is in contact with the front side plate 21 on its side can be pushed up by the pusher 23. The tape tube 1 that is in contact with the front side plate 21 on its circumference will roll off the pusher because its center of gravity is outside the pusher 23.

[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 As shown, the storage compartment 2 is also provided with side panels on both sides. The two side panels, the front side panel 21, and the rear side panel 22 form a semi-enclosed space for placing the tape tube 1.

[0033] Furthermore, the push plate includes multiple push-out units that are nested together. From the top to the bottom of the storage compartment 2, they are respectively a first push-out unit 51, a second push-out unit 52, and a third push-out unit 53. The first push-out unit 51 is located near the front side plate 21, and the second push-out unit 52 is located between the first push-out unit 51 and the third push-out unit 53. The bottom of the first ejection unit 51 and the second ejection unit 52 is provided with a limiting block 54. The second ejection unit 52 and the third ejection unit 53 are provided with limiting grooves 55 at corresponding positions of the limiting block 54. The limiting block 54 of the first ejection unit 51 can slide in the limiting groove 55 of the second ejection unit 52, and the limiting block 54 of the second ejection unit 52 can slide in the limiting groove 55 of the third ejection unit 53. The limiting block 54 is disposed at the bottom of the first ejection unit 51, and a pushing part is disposed at the top of the first ejection unit 51. The pushing part is used to contact the tape tube 1, and the width of the pushing part is smaller than the radius of the tape tube 1.

[0034] In this embodiment, the ejection component is a retractable structure. For the large storage compartment 2, which is deep and has a long front panel 21, the retractable ejection component can reduce the space required for the pusher plate to move.

[0035] like Figure 2 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 As shown, the first ejection unit 51, the second ejection unit 52, and the third ejection unit 53 are nested together, with the third ejection unit 53 on the outermost side and the first ejection unit 51 on the innermost side. During the ejection process, the limiting block 54 and the limiting groove 55 serve to limit and coordinate the ejection. The first driver is connected to the first ejection unit. When the first driver drives the first ejection unit 51 to move upward, the limiting block 54 of the first ejection unit 51 slides within the limiting groove 55 of the second ejection unit 52 until the limiting block 54 of the first ejection unit 51 slides to the top of the limiting groove 55 of the second ejection unit 52. The first ejection unit 51 then drives the second ejection unit 52 to move upward. The second ejection unit 52 works similarly to the third ejection unit 53.

[0036] Furthermore, the first driver includes a motor 61 disposed outside the storage compartment 2, an idler wheel 62, a connecting belt 63 disposed between the output shaft of the motor 61 and the idler wheel 62, and a slider 64 disposed on the connecting belt 63; a groove 65 is provided on the front side plate 21, and the slider 64 can move within the groove 65. The slider 64 is connected to the first ejection unit 51, and the motor 61 can drive the connecting belt 63 to move, thereby causing the slider 64 and the first ejection unit 51 to slide.

[0037] This embodiment proposes an implementation method for a first driver, such as... Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the motor 61 is mounted on the outside of the front side plate 21, and the idler pulley 62 is also mounted on the outside of the front side plate 21. The connecting belt 63 connects the output shaft of the motor 61 and the idler pulley 62. The connecting belt 63 can be a belt, and the corresponding idler pulley 62 is a pulley.

[0038] The slider 64 serves to connect the first ejection unit 51 and the connecting belt 63. A groove 65 is provided on the front side plate 21, within which the slider 64 can move. The forward and reverse rotation of the motor 61 can drive the first ejection unit 51, the second ejection unit 52, and the third ejection unit 53 to reciprocate.

[0039] Furthermore, the flat position refers to the side of the tape tube 1 contacting the tape tube arrangement device, and a flip plate 33 is provided above the bottom plate 31, with one end of the flip plate 33 connected to the top of the front side plate 21; the flat position of the tape tube 1 is pushed to the top of the front side plate 21 by the push-out component, and then falls between the top plate 32 and the bottom plate 31 through the flip plate 33; the distance between the top plate 32 and the bottom plate 31 is greater than the width of the tape tube 1 but less than twice the width of the tape tube 1; The bottom of the base plate 31 is provided with a plurality of partition plates 34, which are arranged at intervals along the length of the base plate 31. The top of the partition plates 34 is pointed. The tape tube 1, which is laid flat, slides from the top of the base plate 31 to the bottom of the base plate 31 under the influence of gravity. The area between the partition plates 34 is a flat channel, and then the tape tube 1 slides into the flat channel. The spacing of the partition plates 34 matches the diameter of the tape tube 1.

[0040] like Figure 8 As shown, the flip plate 33 has an arc-shaped portion, which allows the tape roll 1 to flip smoothly onto the bottom plate 31. The distance between the top plate 32 and the bottom plate 31 is greater than the width of the tape roll 1 but less than twice the width of the tape roll 1; this ensures that the top plate 32 and the bottom plate 31 will not be blocked by multiple stacked tape rolls 1. The distance between the partition plates 34 is slightly greater than the diameter of the tape roll 1, specifically 1.1 to 1.5 times the diameter of the tape roll 1.

[0041] Furthermore, a second driver is provided on the base plate 31, which is used to make the multiple tape rolls 1 in the flat storage compartment 3 evenly distributed among the multiple partition plates 34.

[0042] The second actuator includes a jet nozzle disposed on the top of the base plate 31, a gas channel connected to the jet nozzle, and a gas source for inputting gas into the gas channel; The gas channel is located between the bottom plate 31 and the front side plate 21, and the jet nozzle is located on the top of the bottom plate 31. The jet nozzle sprays gas into the area above the partition plate 34. The tape roll 1 can be stacked in the flat channel between the partition plates 34, and the gas sprayed from the jet nozzle can push the stacked tape roll 1 into the adjacent flat channel.

[0043] In this embodiment, the second driver can be a jet nozzle, vibrator, or other device that can distribute the tape roll 1 relatively evenly into multiple flat channels.

[0044] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the second actuator in this embodiment includes an air nozzle disposed between the base plate 31 and the flip plate 33. The air nozzle is below the flip plate 33 and does not obstruct the flipping process.

[0045] The gas source is an external gas source, which can be an air compressor or other equipment that can generate gas.

[0046] Furthermore, the base plate 31 is also provided with a plurality of sensors 71, which are arranged at intervals. The sensors 71 are used to detect the number of tape paper tubes 1 stacked in the flat channel. The second driver can control the air nozzle to spray air outward according to the detection value of the sensor 71.

[0047] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, sensor 71 is also set between base plate 31 and flip plate 33. Sensor 71 can be distance sensor 71, which can detect when tape roll 1 is piled up.

[0048] Multiple sensors 71 can detect the distribution of tape rolls 1 on the flat channel. When the sensors 71 detect that the tape rolls 1 are unevenly distributed in the flat channel, they can activate the second driver or other means to control the air nozzle to blow air outward, which can blow the accumulated tape rolls 1 to the nearby empty flat channel.

[0049] Furthermore, the jet nozzle includes a left nozzle 72 and a right nozzle 73, and the gas passage includes a proximal passage 74 connected to a gas source, a distal passage 75 connected to the jet nozzle, and a connector 76 connecting the proximal passage 74 and the distal passage 75. The connector 76 has an input port and multiple output ports. The input port is connected to the near-end channel 74, and the multiple output ports are respectively connected to multiple far-end channels 75. The multiple far-end channels 75 are respectively connected to the left air nozzle 72 and the right air nozzle 73. A valve body 77 is provided at the connection between the output port and the far-end channel 75. The valve body 77 can control the opening and closing of the gas flow. The second actuator can control the opening and closing of the corresponding valve body 77 according to the detection value of the sensor 71.

[0050] In this embodiment, the left air nozzle 72 and the right air nozzle 73 are connected to the connector 76 through an independent remote channel 75, and controlling the opening and closing of the corresponding valve body 77 can independently control the start of the left air nozzle 72 or the right air nozzle 73.

[0051] Multiple sensors 71 can jointly detect the distribution of tape rolls 1. When the flat channels on the left or right side of the stacking area are empty, the left air nozzle 72 and the right air nozzle 73 can be activated accordingly to blow air in a targeted and directional manner, so that the tape rolls 1 are evenly distributed.

[0052] Preferably, the left air nozzle 72 and the right air nozzle 73 are set according to regions, and each region is connected to the connector 76 through an independent remote pipe.

[0053] like Figure 6As shown, this embodiment includes three areas, each equipped with a left air nozzle 72 and a right air nozzle 73, thus providing a total of six remote channels 75, as follows. Figure 13 As shown, when sensor 71 detects that tape roll 1 has accumulated in a certain area, it can control the valve body 77 corresponding to that area to open.

[0054] In some embodiments, since the tape rolls 1 output from the multiple output channels of the vertical compartment 4 are consumed simultaneously, one tape roll 1 is removed from each channel at a time. However, the push-out component pushes the tape rolls 1 into the horizontal compartment 3 randomly, which may cause some horizontal channels to accumulate while other horizontal channels remain empty.

[0055] Furthermore, the slide includes a first baffle 81 and a second baffle 82 connected to each other; when the tape tube 1 passes through the slide, the side of the tape tube 1 contacts the first baffle 81, and the circumferential surface of the tape tube 1 contacts the second baffle 82. At the end of the slide near the base plate 31, the first baffle 81 is parallel to the base plate 31; at the end of the slide away from the base plate 31, the second baffle 82 is parallel to the base plate 31; the first baffle 81 and the second baffle 82 are smoothly twisted along the direction of the slide; the tape tube 1 is laid flat at the end of the slide near the base plate 31 and is laid vertically at the end of the slide away from the base plate 31.

[0056] In this embodiment, as Figure 9 As shown, a vertical placement compartment 4 is provided.
