Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of smoked sheet adhesive production technology, specifically to a cylindrical gel cutting device capable of continuous discharge. Background Technology

[0002] The traditional method for processing solidified natural latex blocks is manual cutting. This method is not only inefficient and labor-intensive, but also makes it difficult to guarantee the precision and consistency of the cutting, which can easily lead to uneven slices and inconsistent thicknesses. In addition, the instability of manual operation can also easily lead to safety issues during the cutting process.

[0003] Currently, there are attempts to use mechanized methods for cutting rubber blocks, mainly using blades to cut raw rubber blocks placed on a table from top to bottom. For example, CN220030330U discloses a rubber slicing device. This cutting method is mainly for strip-shaped gels and cannot achieve continuous slicing. CN110181589A discloses a high-efficiency rubber slicing device that achieves the cutting of cylindrical gels into continuous slices, facilitating subsequent sheeting. However, since acid coagulation is required when preparing cylindrical gels from rubber latex, residual acid needs to be washed off with water before slicing. The slicing device in CN110181589A uses a bottom-cutting method, relying on the downward thrust of a compression spring and the weight of the rubber blank itself to ensure the rubber blank and the pressure roller remain in contact, thus ensuring the cutting thickness. However, because cylindrical gels are affected by buoyancy in water, this device cannot cut cylindrical gels underwater, thus preventing the simultaneous acid washing and continuous slicing.

[0004] Therefore, an automated gel slicing and cutting device is needed to achieve continuous acid washing and slicing. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a cylindrical gel cutting device capable of continuous output, enabling automated continuous slicing of cylindrical gels, significantly improving production efficiency and ensuring slice quality.

[0006] Specifically, the present invention is implemented as follows:

[0007] A cylindrical gel cutting device capable of continuous discharge includes:

[0008] Feeding mechanism;

[0009] Rotary cutting mechanism;

[0010] The first buffer pool contains a cleaning solution that can clean the acid from the surface of the cylindrical gel.

[0011] The feed roller, located above the rotary cutting mechanism, contacts the cylindrical gel during cutting and drives the cylindrical gel to rotate.

[0012] The feeding mechanism includes:

[0013] An annular feed chain is provided with at least one detachable mandrel, which passes through a cylindrical gel and is used to mount the cylindrical gel on the annular feed chain so that it can move along the conveying direction of the annular feed chain; during feeding, the mandrel is located in a cleaning solution so that the cylindrical gel is immersed in the cleaning solution;

[0014] The transmission assembly is connected to the rotary cutting mechanism and the annular feed chain respectively, and is used to transmit the power of the rotary cutting mechanism to the annular feed chain to drive the annular feed chain to move towards the rotary cutting blade of the rotary cutting mechanism; the rotary cutting speed of the rotary cutting mechanism is adapted to the feeding speed of the annular feed chain.

[0015] Furthermore, the annular feed chain includes:

[0016] Two chains are arranged symmetrically, with each chain connected to several sprockets to form a ring structure;

[0017] The first drive shaft is positioned above the first buffer pool and is connected to two chains via sprockets. One end of the first drive shaft is connected to the rotary cutting mechanism via a transmission assembly.

[0018] Furthermore, the transmission assembly includes:

[0019] The second drive shaft has one end connected to the drive shaft of the rotary cutting wheel of the rotary cutting mechanism, and the other end connected to the first drive shaft; a clutch is provided on the second drive shaft.

[0020] The end of the first drive shaft away from the drive assembly is equipped with a manual feed wheel.

[0021] Furthermore, the cylindrical gel cutting device capable of continuous discharge also includes:

[0022] The overlapping mechanism, located downstream of the rotary cutting mechanism, is used to overlap the sheets formed by cutting two adjacent cylindrical gels end to end to form a continuous adhesive strip.

[0023] Furthermore, the overlapping mechanism includes:

[0024] A discharge detection sensor is installed at the discharge point of the rotary cutting mechanism to detect the sheet head formed by cutting cylindrical gel.

[0025] A clamping unit is located at the discharge point of the rotary cutting mechanism and is used to clamp the sheet head formed by cutting cylindrical gel. The clamping unit is configured to move from the discharge point of the rotary cutting mechanism to the downstream pressure roller feed point. When the discharge detection sensor detects the sheet head, the clamping unit is activated, clamping the sheet head and driving it to move towards the pressure roller feed point.

[0026] A material breakage detection sensor is installed at the feed point of the pressure roller to detect whether there is a material breakage. When the material breakage detection sensor detects a material breakage, the pressure roller stops running and waits for the overlap to be completed. The material breakage detection sensor is also used for the head of the sheet delivered by the clamping unit.

[0027] The pressing unit is located on the side of the material breakage detection sensor near the pressure roller;

[0028] When the material breakage detection sensor detects the head of the sheet, the clamping unit releases the head of the sheet, and the head of the sheet falls naturally, overlapping with the tail of the previous sheet. The pressing unit then presses the overlapping part to make the two sheets overlap.

[0029] Furthermore, the discharge port of the rotary cutting mechanism is connected to an inclined downward feeding plate, and the discharge end of the feeding plate is provided with a second buffer pool containing a cleaning solution.

[0030] The clamping unit is located at the discharge end of the feeding plate. When the clamping unit moves the sheet head, the sheet is immersed in the cleaning solution.

[0031] Furthermore, a water spraying component is provided at the upper end of the feeding plate. The water spraying component is used to spray water onto the feeding plate so that a water flow is formed on the feeding plate and the sheet comes into contact with the water flow.

[0032] Furthermore, the clamping unit includes:

[0033] Fix your fingers to the circular conveyor chain;

[0034] The movable finger is configured to rotate so as to form an opening and closing structure with the fixed finger; when the discharge detection sensor detects the sheet head, the movable finger rotates and closes, together with the fixed finger, to hold the sheet head.

[0035] Furthermore, the crimping unit includes:

[0036] Drive components;

[0037] The pressing component is hinged to the output end of the driving component. During pressing, the driving component drives the pressing component to press down.

[0038] A limiting component is located at the hinge between the pressing component and the driving component, and is used to make the pressing component tilt towards the pressure roller.

[0039] Furthermore, the surface of the conveyor roller is provided with a pattern, and the direction of the pattern is toward the moving direction of the rotary cutting blade of the rotary cutting mechanism.

[0040] Working principle of the invention:

[0041] After the cylindrical gel 9 is fed into the first buffer tank 2 (the gel 9 is buoyant and suspended on the water), the cylindrical gel is manually fixed by the mandrel 31 and placed on the annular feed chain 3. The rotary cutting mechanism 1 transmits power to the annular feed chain 3 through the transmission component, causing the gel 9 to move forward with the mandrel 31. When the cylindrical gel 9 contacts the rear feed roller 4, the gel 9 rotates around the mandrel 31 under the friction of the feed roller 4. At the same time, the rotary cutting blade of the rotary cutting mechanism 1 cuts the rotating gel 9. While cutting, the gel 9 continues to feed along the annular feed chain 3, thereby realizing the continuous slicing of the cylindrical gel 9. The gel 9 can be cut from a cylindrical shape into slices. The cutting speed of the rotary cutting blade is matched with the feeding speed of the gel 9 to ensure uniform slice thickness. The slice thickness is adjusted by the feeding speed (20±5mm). The sliced ​​gel is then conveyed from the discharge end to the next process. After one tube of gel 9 is cut, the next tube of gel 9 is cut immediately. At the same time, the mandrel 31 returns to the initial position in the reverse cycle along the annular feed chain 3. The gel 9 is then manually inserted onto the mandrel 31 and re-fixed onto the annular feed chain 3. The aforementioned feeding action is repeated to cut the gel.

[0042] After the sheets cut from cylindrical gel 9 are ejected from the discharge end of the rotary cutting mechanism 1, they are detected by the discharge detection sensor 81 above. The clamping unit 82 clamps the head of the sheet 91, while the discharge end of the rotary cutting mechanism 1 continues to discharge. When the clamping unit 82 moves forward to the feeding position of the pressure roller 7 and reaches the pressing station, the clamping unit 82 opens and continues to move. At this time, the head of the sheet 91 falls naturally and overlaps with the tail of the previous sheet 91. Then the pressing unit 83 presses down on the overlapping part, joining the two sheets together to form a continuous sheet. After the pressing unit 93 resets, the downstream pressure roller 7 starts, driving the sheet 91 to move and realizing the tableting process.

[0043] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0044] (1) The cylindrical gel cutting device provided by the present invention can realize continuous discharge, realize automatic feeding and automatic cutting of gel, and can effectively improve production efficiency.

[0045] (2) The first buffer pool is used to buffer the cylindrical gel, which can be acid washed and acid treated, and at the same time provide buoyancy for the core shaft operation.

[0046] (3) The device transmits the power of the rotary cutting mechanism to the annular feed chain through the transmission component, which drives the gel to feed. The cutting speed of the rotary cutter is matched with the gel feeding speed, and the gel rotates under the friction of the feed roller, which ensures that the slice thickness is uniform and avoids the problem of slice quality deterioration due to the change of the cutter position.

[0047] (4) An overlapping mechanism is set downstream of the rotary cutting mechanism, which can realize the connection between the front and rear sheets, so that the sheets can form a continuous sheet without interruption, and the downstream cutting process can obtain film of consistent length, ensuring that the final product has uniform shape and size.

Detailed Implementation

[0063] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0064] Example 1

[0065] like Figure 1 As shown, a cylindrical gel cutting device capable of continuous output includes a feeding rotary cutting section and an overlapping section. The feeding rotary cutting section includes a feeding mechanism, a rotary cutting mechanism 1, a first buffer pool 2, and a conveyor roller 4. The first buffer pool 2 is located on the feeding side of the rotary cutting mechanism 1 and contains water. After the cylindrical gel 9 is fed into the first buffer pool 2, the gel 9 is buoyed and suspended on the water, facilitating the movement of the gel 9 and the subsequent installation of the mandrel 31. At the same time, the water in the first buffer pool 2 washes the acid on the surface of the gel, achieving the purpose of acid washing. The conveyor roller 4 is located above the rotary cutting mechanism 1. The feeding mechanism feeds the gel 9 to the conveyor roller 4 and the rotary cutting mechanism 1. The gel 9 contacts the conveyor roller 4, and the rotation of the conveyor roller 4 drives the gel 9 to rotate around the mandrel 31. Simultaneously, the rotary cutting blade of the rotary cutting mechanism 1 cuts the rotating gel 9. While cutting, the gel 9 continues to be fed, thereby achieving continuous slicing of the cylindrical gel 9. The overlapping section is located downstream of the feeding rotary cutting section, specifically at the discharge end of the rotary cutting mechanism 1. It includes a second buffer pool 5 and an overlapping mechanism. The second buffer pool 5 stores water, and its end is connected to the downstream pressure roller 7. It is mainly used for washing and acid treatment of the sheets formed by rotary cutting, as well as buffering the sheets and providing buoyancy so that the sheets can be overlapped and conveyed. After being pressed by the pressure roller 7, a continuous film is formed.

[0066] Specifically, such as Figure 2-3As shown, the feeding mechanism includes an annular feed chain 3 and a transmission assembly. The annular feed chain 3 consists of two chains and several sprockets. The two chains are driven by a first transmission shaft 33 to achieve synchronization. Several detachable spindles 31 are set between the two chains. In this embodiment, the spindles 31 are connected to the chains at both ends by snap-fitting. That is, a slot is set on the chain, and then the two ends of the spindle 31 are snapped into the two slots respectively to realize the installation of the spindle 31, so that the spindle 31 moves with the annular feed chain 3. It should be noted that the lower position of the chain should be below the water surface of the first buffer pool 2, so that the spindle 31 is immersed in water when conveyed at the lower position, and so that the gel 9 on it is immersed in water as much as possible to ensure the acid washing effect.

[0067] One end of the first drive shaft 33 is a manual feed wheel 32, and the other end is connected to the power shaft of the rotary cutting mechanism 1 through a transmission assembly. This allows the power of the rotary cutting mechanism 1 to be introduced into the annular feed chain 3, driving the annular feed chain 3 to automatically feed, thus achieving automatic feeding of the gel 9. The feeding speed of the gel 9 is adapted to the rotary cutting mechanism 1 to ensure uniform thickness of the cut sheets. Specifically, the transmission assembly includes a second drive shaft 34. One end of the second drive shaft 34 is connected to the power shaft of the rotary cutting mechanism 1 through a gear, and the other end is connected to the first drive shaft 33 through a sprocket and chain. A clutch 35 is provided on the second drive shaft 34 to cut off the power, allowing manual rotation of the manual feed wheel 32 in special circumstances to manually feed the gel 9. In this embodiment, the basic parameters of the rotary cutting mechanism 1 are shown in Table 1.

[0068] Table 1

[0069] Applicable gel size (cylindrical) ≤Φ800X500 Rotary cutting speed Approximately 680 m / h Gel processing capability Approximately 6200 kg / h Rotary cutting of a tube of gel time Approximately 30 seconds Slice thickness (adjustable) 20±5mm

[0070] Furthermore, during the rotary cutting process, the rotating blade exerts a lateral force on the gel 9, causing the cut sheet to shift position. Simultaneously, the elasticity of the gel 9 leads to uneven sheet thickness, even with significant differences in thickness between the left and right sides of the same sheet. Therefore, the material roller 4 of this invention features a pattern on its upper surface, oriented towards the direction of the rotary cutting blade's movement. This pattern provides a counterforce to the gel 9, counteracting the force exerted by the rotary cutting blade and effectively solving the problems of sheet shift and uneven thickness.

[0071] Overlapping sections, such as Figure 4 As shown, the overlapping mechanism includes: a discharge detection sensor 81, a clamping unit 82, a material breakage detection sensor 84, and a pressing unit 83. The clamping unit 82 is conveyed in a ring by the conveyor chain 6. Two opposing clamping units 82 are located on both sides of the sheet 91, jointly clamping the head of the sheet 91. Figure 5-7As shown, due to the high speed of the upstream rotary cutting, the sheet 91 is thrown out when it leaves the conveyor roller. In order to facilitate the subsequent clamping unit 82 to clamp the sheet, the present invention has an inclined downward feeding plate 85 connected at the discharge point of the rotary cutting mechanism 1. The feeding plate 85 is used to receive the thrown sheet 91 and play a guiding role, thereby ensuring that the clamping unit 82 can accurately clamp the sheet 91.

[0072] The discharge detection sensor 81 is located at the inlet of the feed plate 85 and is used to detect the head of the sheet 91. Specifically, the head of the sheet 91 is determined by the first detection of material after the material is cut off. The clamping unit 82 is located downstream of the discharge detection sensor 81. When the discharge detection sensor 81 detects the sheet 91, the clamping units 82 on both sides are activated to clamp the sheet 91. Then the conveyor chain 6 moves, driving the sheet 91 to move towards the pressure roller 7. During the movement, the sheet 91 is always suspended on the water in the second buffer pool 5, which cleans the surface of the sheet 91 and overcomes the influence of gravity, facilitating the conveying of the sheet 91.

[0073] like Figure 8 As shown, the material breakage detection sensor 84 is located at the feed end of the pressure roller 7, and the pressing unit 83 is located between the pressure roller 7 and the material breakage detection sensor 84. When the material breakage detection sensor 84 detects a material breakage, the pressure roller 7 stops running, causing the tail of the previous sheet 91 to stop in front of the pressure roller 7. At this time, the clamping unit 82 clamps a new sheet 91 to the material breakage detection sensor 84, the clamping unit 82 releases the sheet 91, the clamping unit 82 moves in a ring to reset, and the sheet 91 falls naturally, overlapping with the tail of the previous sheet 91. Then the pressing unit 83 operates to press the overlapping part of the two sheets 91. The sheets 91 are joined together under pressure, thus forming a continuous sheet. After the pressing is completed, the pressure roller 7 starts working to carry out the subsequent pressing process. Specifically, the specific unloading position of the clamping unit 82 can be set so that the release position is as close as possible to the crimping unit 83, or the material breakage detection sensor 84 can be used to detect whether the sheet 91 has reached the crimping position. After reaching the crimping position, the clamping unit 82 releases the sheet 91 after a delay, so as to ensure that the two sheets 91 always have an overlapping part.

[0074] Specifically, such as Figure 9As shown, the clamping unit includes a clamping motor 821, a fixed finger 822, a movable finger 823, and a mounting base 824. The entire clamping unit is mounted on the chain of the conveyor chain 6 via the mounting base 824. The fixed finger 822 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 824, and the movable finger 823 is hinged at the connection between the fixed finger 822 and the mounting base 824. Its end is an arc-shaped tooth. The output end of the clamping motor 821 meshes with the arc-shaped tooth through a gear. The clamping motor 821 drives the movable finger 823 to rotate, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the clamping unit. When the discharge detection sensor 81 detects the head of the sheet 91, the clamping motor 821 drives the movable finger 823 to rotate and close, clamping the head of the sheet 91 together with the fixed finger 822. After reaching the pressing station, the clamping motor 821 reverses, opens the movable finger 823, and releases the sheet 91.

[0075] like Figure 8 As shown, the crimping unit 83 includes a cylinder 831 and a pressure plate 832a. The output end of the cylinder 831 is fixedly connected to the pressure plate 832a. By extending and retracting the piston of the cylinder 831, the pressure plate 832a is driven to press down, thereby achieving the crimping of the overlapping part of the two sheets 91.

[0076] Specifically, the working process of this device is as follows:

[0077] First, the cylindrical gel 9 is fed into the first buffer pool 2. Then, the mandrel 31 is manually removed from the annular feed chain 3 and inserted into the central hole of the gel 9. The mandrel 31 and gel 9 are then mounted together on the annular feed chain 3. The rotary cutting mechanism 1 transmits power to the annular feed chain 3 via a transmission assembly, causing the gel 9 to move forward with the mandrel 31. The mandrel 31 moves clockwise with the annular feed chain 3, ensuring the gel 9 is conveyed at a low position. When the cylindrical gel 9 contacts the rear conveyor roller 4, the gel 9 rotates around the mandrel 31 under the friction of the conveyor roller 4. Simultaneously, the rotary cutting blade of the rotary cutting mechanism 1 cuts the rotating gel 9. While cutting, the gel 9 continues to feed along the annular feed chain 3, thus achieving continuous slicing of the cylindrical gel 9. After one tube of gel 9 is rotary-cut, the next gel 9 is immediately rotary-cut, while the mandrel 31 returns to its initial position in the reverse cycle along the annular feed chain 3.

[0078] After the cylindrical gel 9 is cut into sheets 91 and ejected from the discharge end of the rotary cutting mechanism 1, it is detected by the discharge detection sensor 81 above. The clamping motor 821 drives the movable finger 823 to rotate, which, together with the fixed finger 822, clamps the head of the sheet 91 (during this process, the discharge end of the rotary cutting mechanism 1 continues to discharge). After the clamping unit 82 moves forward to the pressing station, the clamping motor 821 reverses, opens the movable finger 823, releases the sheet 91, and the head of the sheet 91 falls naturally, overlapping with the tail of the previous sheet 91. During this process, the clamping unit 82 continues to move. Then the cylinder 831 actuates, driving the pressure plate 832a to press down the overlapping part of the two sheets 91, joining the two sheets 91 together to form a continuous sheet. After the cylinder 831 resets, the downstream pressure roller 7 starts, driving the sheet to move and realizing the tableting process.

[0079] Example 2

[0080] like Figure 10 As shown, in this embodiment, a water spraying assembly is provided at the inlet end of the unloading plate 85. The water spraying assembly consists of a pump 86 and a water outlet pipe. The pump 86 pumps water from the second buffer pool 5 to the water outlet pipe at the inlet end of the unloading plate 85, and the water flows out from the water outlet pipe, so that water flow 87 is formed on the surface of the unloading plate 85. The water flow 87 mainly reduces the friction between the sheet 91 and the unloading plate 85, and at the same time applies a force to the sheet 91 to accelerate the movement of the head of the sheet 91, so as to avoid the head of the sheet 91 from being stuck, which would cause the rear end to be clamped by the clamping unit 82, thereby improving the accuracy of the subsequent overlapping process.

[0081] In addition, corresponding bumpers can be provided at the discharge roller of the rotary cutting mechanism 11 and the pressure roller of the pressing mechanism to spray water onto the sheets passing through these areas, so as to keep the surface of the sheets always covered with a layer of water film and reduce adhesion.

[0082] Example 3

[0083] like Figure 11-13As shown, in this embodiment, the pressing component uses a hinged pressing roller 832b, which is driven by a cylinder 831. Specifically, the output end of the cylinder 831 is provided with a support 833b, which extends towards the material breakage detection sensor 84. The pressing roller 832b is hinged to the support 833b through a connector 835b. The hinge can be set relatively tight, but it does not affect its rotation, so that the pressing roller 832b can keep pressing down the sheet 91 without affecting its rotation. A limiting block 834b is provided on the support 833b. The limiting block 834b is located at the end of the support 833b near the material breakage detection sensor 84, and is used to limit the rotation of the connector 835b towards the side near the material breakage detection sensor 84. When the two sheets 91 overlap, the piston of cylinder 831 extends, driving the support 833b and pressing roller 832b to descend. The pressing roller 832b squeezes the overlapping part of the two sheets 91. As the piston continues to extend, the connector 835b gradually rotates around the hinge, causing the pressing roller 832b to roll backward to press the overlapping sheets 91, increasing the pressing area and preventing the two sheets 91 from separating when the pressing roller 7 starts due to incomplete pressing.

[0084] The above examples illustrate the present invention only to aid in understanding it and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Those skilled in the art can make various simple deductions, modifications, or substitutions based on the principles of this invention.
