[0054] The material is initially guided by the upper material guide assembly. Rotating the centering adjustment handwheel assembly drives the double-headed centering adjustment screw shaft end connector, which in turn drives the double-headed forward and reverse thread centering adjustment screw to rotate. This causes the transverse lead screw nut and the adjustment slide assembly to slide and adjust relative to the wide guide rail and connecting beam. The pulleys on both sides of the middle guide groove are connected to adjust the width of the mechanical limit stop to accommodate different material widths. Then, rotating the material width limit adjustment handwheel fine-tuning knob drives the overall material width limit adjustment shaft and material width limit adjustment plate of the transition material guide assembly to rotate. The lower material guide assembly drives the double-headed centering adjustment screw shaft end connector, which in turn drives the double-headed forward and reverse thread centering adjustment screw to rotate. This causes the transverse lead screw nut and the adjustment slide assembly to slide and adjust relative to the wide guide rail and connecting beam. The pulleys on both sides of the middle guide groove are connected to adjust the width of the mechanical limit stop to accommodate different material widths, achieving the effect of material centering.
[0055] Furthermore, when the transition guide component is activated, the cutter jaw adjustment component is manually adjusted to match the outer dimensions of the cutter, and the cutter cleaning component is activated to complete the cutter cleaning process.
[0056] In summary, the device provided in this embodiment adopts an arc-shaped panel structure, which ensures a small curvature during the material conveying process and prevents the prepreg and backing paper from easily separating. The material width limiting mechanism is used to constrain the position of the material during conveying, ensuring the stability of the material conveying position. The material centering adjustment mechanism is used to fine-tune the positional relationship between the material and the equipment centerline, ensuring the laying accuracy and quality of the equipment. The material width limiting adjustment mechanism is used to fine-tune the size of the material width limiting mechanism to adapt to prepreg materials of different widths and dimensional accuracies, ensuring the correctness of the material conveying position. The adjustment and locking mechanism is used to lock the mechanism after the material width and position are adjusted, ensuring the smooth operation of the device.
[0057] Meanwhile, the device features a mechanical limiting mechanism for the prepreg tape edge, ensuring the correct direction of prepreg delivery and allowing manual adjustment of tape width and centering limits. The upper and lower prepreg tape guide grooves of the tape laying equipment ensure the accuracy of tape delivery from the belt shaft to the end-laying position. Mechanical limiting edges are installed in the upper and lower guide grooves to constrain the stability of the tape's position during transport.
