Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bra production equipment, and in particular to a cotton cup clamping device and a cotton cup assembling method. [Background technology]

[0002] As women's underwear, bras are usually composed of bras, cups, shoulder straps, buckles and supports. Its main function is to provide the support and shaping effect required by the breasts to reduce the burden on the neck, back and shoulders, and avoid sagging breasts and unnecessary discomfort.

[0003] For example, a bra with a cotton cup is generally composed of a cloth cup and a cotton cup, and the cotton cup is set in the cloth cup. During production, an opening is reserved in the cloth cup to load the cotton cup into the cloth cup, and the traditional method is generally to directly insert the cotton cup into the cloth cup manually, and the staff has to hold both the cotton cup and the cloth cup, so it is difficult to quickly load the cotton cup into the cloth cup, which makes the staff's operation difficult and the work efficiency is low. In addition, since the cotton cup needs to be loaded into the cloth cup, the opening needs to be set relatively large, otherwise it is difficult to quickly load the cotton cup, and setting the opening too large will cause the cotton cup to fall off from the opening in the later process.

[0004] In view of the above technical problems, the present invention is proposed after research. [Summary of the invention]

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a cotton cup clamping device and a cotton cup assembly method to solve at least one of the above-mentioned problems. The present invention sets a workbench and sets a cup clamping assembly on the workbench to clamp the cotton cup. After clamping the cotton cup, it is only necessary to manually or mechanically grab the bra and move the opening of the bra cup cavity toward the clamping part in the cup clamping assembly. After the cotton cup is inserted into the bra cup cavity, the cup clamping assembly releases the cotton cup to complete the assembly of the cotton cup, which can reduce the work difficulty of the staff and improve work efficiency.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention proposes a cotton cup clamping device, including a workbench 1, on which is provided a cup clamping assembly 2 which can be used to clamp the cotton cup to facilitate the insertion of the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra and to loosen the clamped cotton cup to release the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra. The cup clamping assembly 2 includes a lower clamping plate 20 fixed on the workbench 1 and an upper clamping plate 21 clamped and matched with the lower clamping plate 20. The front parts of the upper clamping plate 21 and the lower clamping plate 20 are used to clamp the cotton cup to form a clamping part 22. The workbench 1 is also provided with a driving member 5 for driving the upper clamping plate 21 and the lower clamping plate 20 to move closer or separate relative to each other to clamp or loosen the cotton cup.

[0007] In the cotton cup clamping device as described above, the clamping surface of the lower clamping plate 20 at the clamping portion 22 is a plane, the upper clamping plate 21 at the clamping portion 22 is elastic, and the shape of the upper clamping plate 21 at the clamping portion 22 is an arc shape that gradually approaches the lower clamping plate 20 from the inside to the outside. After the clamping portion 22 clamps the cotton cup, the upper clamping plate 21 and the lower clamping plate 20 at the clamping portion 22 can be respectively pressed against the cotton cup.

[0008] As described above, a cotton cup clamping device is provided on the upper clamping plate 21 with an air tube 3 for inflating the cup cavity of the bra and flattening the two sides of the cotton cup clamped by the clamping part 22 so as to release the cotton cup flatly into the cup cavity of the bra, and the blowing port 30 of the air tube 3 is located at the position of the clamping part 22.

[0009] In the cotton cup clamping device as described above, two air tubes 3 are provided, and the two air tubes 3 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the upper clamping plate 21 , and the air blowing ports 30 of the air tubes 3 are located on the outer side of the air tubes 3 .

[0010] In the cotton cup clamping device as described above, a connecting plate 23 is provided between the ends of the upper clamping plate 21 and the lower clamping plate 20 to connect the two, and the upper clamping plate 21, the lower clamping plate 20 and the connecting plate 23 are integrally formed into a duckbill shape.

[0011] In the cotton cup clamping device as described above, the front end of the lower clamping plate 20 exceeds the upper clamping plate 21 to form a positioning portion 24 for facilitating the cotton cup to be loaded into the clamping portion 22.

[0012] In the cotton cup clamping device as described above, the widths of the upper clamping plate 21 and the lower clamping plate 20 located at the clamping portion 22 gradually decrease from the inside to the outside.

[0013] In the cotton cup clamping device as described above, the cup clamping assembly 2 is arranged on the front end of the workbench 1, and the clamping portion 22 extends out of the front end of the workbench, the rear portion of the lower clamping plate 20 is fixed to the front end portion of the workbench 1, and the driving member 5 is a cylinder, which is fixed to the bottom of the lower clamping plate 20 at the rear portion of the clamping portion 22, and the piston rod of the cylinder passes through the lower clamping plate 20 and is connected to the upper clamping plate 21.

[0014] In the cotton cup clamping device as described above, a support plate 6 is provided on the front end of the workbench 1 , and the support plate 6 is located below the cup clamping assembly 2 .

[0015] The present invention also provides a cotton cup assembly method, using the cotton cup clamping device described above, comprising the following steps:

[0016] S1, a worker or a robot puts the cotton cup into the clamping part 22 of the cup clamping assembly 2;

[0017] S2, the pneumatic driving member 5 enables the cup clamping assembly 2 to clamp the cotton cup;

[0018] S3, a staff member or a robot inserts the opening of the cup cavity of the bra close to the clamping part 22 and then inserts it into the clamping part 22, so that the cotton cup is located in the cup cavity of the bra;

[0019] S4, the trachea 3 is blown to inflate the cup cavity of the bra and flatten the clamped cotton cup;

[0020] S5, the cup clamping assembly 2 releases the cotton cup, and the staff or the robot separates the entire bra body from the cup clamping assembly 2 to complete the assembly.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the cotton cup clamping device of the present invention has the following advantages:

[0022] 1. The present application provides a cup clamping assembly on the workbench to clamp the cotton cup, which can facilitate the insertion of the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra. Compared with the traditional method of directly inserting the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra manually, it can be more efficient, which can reduce the labor intensity of the staff and improve the company's production efficiency.

[0023] 2. Since the cotton cup itself is concave in shape, after the clamping part clamps the cotton cup, the two sides of the cotton cup will curl up. When the lateral width of the cotton cup becomes smaller, it can be further convenient for the staff to insert the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra. In this way, there is no need to set the opening of the bra cup cavity too large to facilitate the insertion of the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra, which may cause the cotton cup to fall off in the subsequent production links after being placed in the cotton cup.

[0024] 3. A cotton cup installation method of the present application, relying on the cotton cup clamping device of the present invention, can quickly and efficiently install the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra, which can not only reduce the labor intensity of the staff, but also improve the company's production efficiency.

[0033] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the present invention includes a cotton cup clamping device, including a workbench 1, on which is provided a cup clamping assembly 2 which can be used to clamp the cotton cup so as to facilitate the insertion of the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra and to loosen the clamped cotton cup so as to release the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra, the cup clamping assembly 2 includes a lower clamping plate 20 fixed on the workbench 1 and an upper clamping plate 21 clamped and matched with the lower clamping plate 20, the upper clamping plate 21 and the front part of the lower clamping plate 20 are used to clamp the cotton cup to form a clamping part 22, and the workbench 1 is also provided with a driving member 5 for driving the upper clamping plate 21 and the lower clamping plate 20 to move closer or separate relative to each other so as to clamp or loosen the cotton cup.

[0035] During operation, the cotton cup is placed in the clamping part 22 of the clamping cup assembly 2 by a human or a robot, and the driving part 5 drives the upper clamping plate 21 and the lower clamping plate 20 to clamp the cotton cup. Then, the bra is grabbed by a human or a robot, and the opening of the cup cavity of the bra is moved toward the clamping part 22 until the cotton cup is inserted into the cup cavity of the bra. Then, the driving part 5 drives the clamping cup assembly 2 to release the cotton cup, and the staff or the robot takes out the bra and the cotton cup together and places them in the next process. It should be noted that, because the cotton cup itself is concave in shape, after the clamping part 22 clamps the cotton cup, the two sides of the cotton cup will be tilted upward, so that the lateral width of the cotton cup will become smaller, which is convenient for inserting into the cup cavity of the bra.

[0036] The present application can facilitate the insertion of the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra by arranging the cup clamping assembly 2 on the workbench 1 to clamp the cotton cup. Compared with the traditional method of directly inserting the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra manually, it can be more efficient, which can not only reduce the labor intensity of the staff, but also improve the production efficiency of the company. In addition, since the cotton cup itself is concave in shape, after the clamping part 22 clamps the cotton cup, the two sides of the cotton cup will be tilted upward, and after the lateral width of the cotton cup becomes smaller, it can further facilitate the staff to insert the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra. In this way, there is no need to set the opening of the cup cavity of the bra too large in order to facilitate the insertion of the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra, which will cause the cotton cup to fall off in the subsequent production links after the cotton cup is placed.

[0037] like Figure 3As shown, as a further solution of the present invention, in order to further clamp the cotton cup and prevent the cotton cup from sliding in the clamping part 22 after being stressed when the cotton cup is installed, the clamping surface of the lower clamping plate 20 at the clamping part 22 is set to be a plane, the upper clamping plate 21 at the clamping part 22 is elastic, and the shape of the upper clamping plate 21 at the clamping part 22 is an arc that gradually approaches the lower clamping plate 20 from the inside to the outside. After the clamping part 22 clamps the cotton cup, the upper clamping plate 21 and the lower clamping plate 20 at the clamping part 22 can be respectively close to the cotton cup. Through the above arrangement, after the clamping part 22 clamps the cotton cup, since the clamping surface of the lower clamping plate 20 is a plane, it can contact the cotton cup with a larger area, and the clamping can be more stable. Of course, since the upper clamping plate 21 is elastic, after clamping the cotton cup, the clamping surface of the upper clamping plate 21 after deformation is also a plane.

[0038] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, as a further solution of the present invention, in order to facilitate the installation of the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra, an air tube 3 is provided on the upper clamping plate 21 for inflating the cup cavity of the bra and flattening the two sides of the cotton cup that are clamped by the clamping part 22 so as to release the cotton cup flatly into the cup cavity of the bra, and the air inlet 30 of the air tube 3 is located at the position of the clamping part 22. After the cotton cup is installed into the cup cavity of the bra, the air tube 3 is blown to inflate the cup cavity of the bra. At the same time, since the air tube 3 is arranged on the upper clamping plate 21, the two sides of the cotton cup are also tilted upwards, and the continuous air discharge of the air tube 3 will also flatten the cotton cup to both sides, so that the cotton cup can be released flatly into the cup cavity of the bra more conveniently.

[0039] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, as a further solution of the present invention, in order to make the air pipe 3 blow more smoothly and better blow the two sides of the cotton cup flat, two air pipes 3 are provided, and the two air pipes 3 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the upper clamping plate 21, and the air blowing port 30 of the air pipe 3 is located on the outer side of the air pipe 3. The air blowing port 30 is arranged on the outer side of the air pipe 3, so that the air blowing port 30 can be directed to the raised parts on both sides of the cotton cup, so that the raised parts of the cotton cup can be blown flat more effectively. In addition, multiple air blowing ports 30 can be arranged along the length direction of the air pipe 3.

[0040] like Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, as a further solution of the present invention, in order to improve the stability of clamping and facilitate the insertion of the clamping part 22 into the cup cavity of the bra, a connecting plate 23 is provided between the ends of the upper clamping plate 21 and the lower clamping plate 20 to connect the two, and the upper clamping plate 21, the lower clamping plate 20 and the connecting plate 23 are integrally formed into a duckbill shape. After the upper clamping plate 21 and the lower clamping plate 20 are connected into one by providing the connecting plate 23, the clamping can be more stable, and the integrated design can facilitate production and reduce the difficulty of later assembly. The upper clamping plate 21, the lower clamping plate 20 and the connecting plate 23 are integrally formed into a duckbill shape to facilitate insertion into the cup cavity of the bra.

[0041] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, as a further solution of the present invention, in order to facilitate the loading of the cotton cup into the clamping portion 22, the front end of the lower clamping plate 20 is arranged to exceed the upper clamping plate 21 to form a positioning portion 24 for facilitating the loading of the cotton cup into the clamping portion 22. When loading the cotton cup, the staff can place the cotton cup directly on the positioning portion 24 for positioning, and then push the entire cotton cup forward into the clamping portion 22, and then the clamping portion 22 clamps the cotton cup.

[0042] like Figure 5 As shown, as a further solution of the present invention, in order to allow the clamping portion 22 to be inserted into the cup cavity of the bra more smoothly and to allow the clamping portion 22 to be detached from the cup cavity of the bra more smoothly, the width of the upper clamping plate 21 and the lower clamping plate 20 located at the position of the clamping portion 22 is set to a shape that gradually decreases from the inside to the outside.

[0043] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, as a further solution of the present invention, in order to facilitate the installation of the cup clamping assembly 2, the cup clamping assembly 2 is arranged on the front end of the workbench 1, and the clamping portion 22 extends out of the front end of the workbench, the rear part of the lower clamping plate 20 is fixed on the front end of the workbench 1, and the driving member 5 is a cylinder, which is fixed to the bottom of the lower clamping plate 20 at the rear of the clamping portion 22, and the piston rod of the cylinder passes through the lower clamping plate 20 and is connected to the upper clamping plate 21. When clamping the cotton cup, the cylinder drives the piston rod to move, and the piston rod drives the upper clamping plate 21 to move, so that the cotton cup can be clamped. When installing the cup clamping assembly 2, the rear part of the lower clamping plate 20 is fixed to the workbench 1 by bolts, and then the cylinder is fixed to the bottom of the lower clamping plate 20. It should be noted that the driving member 5 can also be other components that can drive the upper clamping plate 21 to move, such as a hydraulic cylinder, an electric push rod, etc.

[0044] like Figure 1As shown, as a further solution of the present invention, in order to facilitate the work of the staff, a support plate 6 is provided on the front end of the workbench 1, and the support plate 6 is located below the clamping cup assembly 2. The support plate 6 can provide a certain support for the hands of the staff when the staff is working. In addition, the front end of the support plate 6 can be bent toward the bottom, which can play a certain protective role and prevent the staff from directly hitting the front end of the support plate 6.

[0045] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the present invention also provides a cotton cup assembly method, using the cotton cup clamping device described above, comprising the following steps:

[0046] S1. A worker or a robot puts the cotton cup into the clamping portion 22 of the cup clamping assembly 2.

[0047] S2, the pneumatic driving component 5 enables the cup clamping assembly 2 to clamp the cotton cup.

[0048] S3. A staff member or a robot inserts the opening of the cup cavity of the bra close to the clamping part 22 and then inserts the cotton cup into the clamping part 22 so that the cotton cup is located in the cup cavity of the bra.

[0049] S4, the air pipe 3 is blown to inflate the cup cavity of the bra and flatten the clamped cotton cup.

[0050] S5, the cup clamping assembly 2 releases the cotton cup, and the staff or the robot separates the entire bra body from the cup clamping assembly 2 to complete the assembly.

[0051] The present invention uses the method to insert the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra, which is more efficient than the traditional method of directly inserting the cotton cup into the cup cavity of the bra manually, and can reduce the labor intensity of the staff and improve the company's production efficiency.
