Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of agricultural irrigation equipment processing, and in particular to an automated rapid embedding machine for pipe-mounted button drippers. Background Technology

[0002] Modern agricultural irrigation technology aims to improve water resource utilization efficiency, reduce waste, and ensure that crops receive sufficient water. Common irrigation technologies include: surface irrigation, such as furrow irrigation and bed irrigation, which is suitable for flat terrain but has low water resource utilization efficiency; sprinkler irrigation, which sprays water evenly onto the field through nozzles, is suitable for various terrains but is easily affected by wind; and drip irrigation, which delivers water directly to the roots of crops through pipes and drippers, has high water resource utilization efficiency, and is suitable for arid regions.

[0003] Drip irrigation is a highly efficient irrigation method that delivers water and nutrients directly to the roots of crops through a pipeline system. It has the following advantages: high water efficiency, reduced evaporation and runoff, water resource utilization rate of over 90%, precise fertilization, integrated water and fertilizer application, improved fertilizer utilization, strong adaptability, suitable for various terrains and soil conditions, reduced weeds, localized moistening, and suppression of weed growth.

[0004] The core of a drip irrigation system is the water delivery pipe, and its processing quality directly affects the system performance. Currently, the processing of water delivery pipes suffers from the following shortcomings in terms of automation and speed: low degree of automation, with many steps still relying on manual operation, resulting in low efficiency and poor consistency; slow processing speed, with existing equipment unable to meet large-scale demands, limiting production efficiency; difficulty in quality control; and the ease with which manual operation introduces errors, affecting product quality. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the issue of low processing speed for drip irrigation pipes and improve automated processing efficiency, this invention provides an automated rapid embedding machine for on-pipe button drippers.

[0006] The present invention provides an automated high-speed button inserting machine with a tube-mounted design, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An automated high-speed button inserting machine with a tube-mounted design includes:

[0008] Pipe fitting conveying device, used for continuously conveying pipe fittings for processing;

[0009] An inlay processing device is installed on the conveying path of the pipe fitting conveying device and is used to inlay drippers onto pipe fittings;

[0010] The inlay processing device includes a drilling component and an inlay component, wherein the drilling component and the inlay component respectively perform cyclic following drilling and inlaying of drip heads on the pipe fitting;

[0011] The dripper feeding device is used to select the direction of the dripper and transport it to the inlay processing device for inlay processing.

[0012] The pipe fitting conveying device is designed to continuously transport pipe fittings for processing, avoiding manual intervention and improving production efficiency. The inlay processing device performs cyclical drilling and inlay operations on the pipe fittings, ensuring accurate processing of all fittings. The drilling component and the inlay component perform drilling and drip tip inlay on the pipe fittings respectively. The two work together to ensure accurate drip tip inlay position, improving product precision and consistency. The drip tip feeding device can select the direction of the drip tips and transport them to the inlay processing device, ensuring that the direction of each drip tip meets the requirements, improving the automation level and stability of the production line. It can be adjusted according to the size of different pipe fittings and drip tip specifications, has high adaptability, and can meet the production needs of various models and specifications.

[0013] Furthermore, the pipe conveying device includes an outgoing component, a pulling component, and a take-up component. The outgoing component is installed at the front end of the inlay processing device and is used to convey the pipe to be processed to the inlay processing device. The take-up component is installed at the rear end of the inlay processing device and is used to receive the pipe processed by the inlay processing device. The pulling component is installed between the outgoing component and the take-up component and is used to pull the pipe for continuous conveying.

[0014] The clear division of labor among the lead-out component, pulling component, and take-up component ensures continuous and stable conveying of the pipe fittings during processing. The lead-out component ensures that the pipe fittings can smoothly enter the inlay processing device, while the take-up component ensures that the processed pipe fittings can be processed and retrieved in a timely manner. The pulling component ensures the continuity and smoothness of the entire conveying process. Through precise traction force control by the pulling component, the pipe fittings can be evenly conveyed to the inlay processing device, thereby avoiding conveying errors caused by excessive traction or slack, improving the accuracy and stability of pipe fitting processing. The cooperation of the lead-out component, pulling component, and take-up component enables better synchronization of processing and conveying, avoiding instability or stagnation of pipe fittings during the conveying process, and improving the efficiency and accuracy of the overall production line.

[0015] Furthermore, the lead-out assembly includes a raw material rack, a lead-out wheel, and a lead-out limiting roller. A raw material roll support roller is rotatably mounted on the raw material rack. The raw material roll support roller is an adjustable expansion roller and is connected to a motor for transmission. The main shaft of the raw material roll support roller is connected to a damping brake component. The lead-out wheel and the lead-out limiting roller are installed on one side of the raw material rack. The lead-out limiting roller forms a grid-like structure through two vertical parallel rollers and two horizontal parallel rollers. The raw material roll lead-out tube passes through the lead-out limiting roller and the lead-out wheel in sequence.

[0016] The raw material roll support rollers installed on the raw material rack can effectively support and fix the raw material rolls, ensuring stability during high-speed rotation. The adjustable expansion roller design can adapt to raw material rolls of different sizes, providing greater flexibility and applicability. The raw material roll support rollers, through the transmission connection with the motor, can achieve precise control of the raw material rolls, ensuring that the tube maintains appropriate tension during the drawing process. The addition of damping brake components further prevents accidental over-rotation and runaway unwinding speed, improving the safety and stability of the drawing process. The grid-shaped drawing limit rollers, through the combination of vertical and parallel rollers, can effectively guide the path of the tube, allowing it to move smoothly and steadily during the drawing process, reducing friction and wear.

[0017] Furthermore, the tensioning assembly includes a tensioning wheel, a tensioning motor, a pressing wheel, and a pressing cylinder. Two sets of tensioning wheels are arranged side by side and connected to the same set of tensioning motors through a transmission device. The pressing wheel is telescopically mounted on one side of the tensioning wheel through the pressing cylinder and moves telescopically toward the tensioning wheel.

[0018] Two sets of tension rollers are arranged side by side and driven by the same tensioning motor, ensuring stable traction of the components during the conveying process. This design provides a uniform and powerful traction effect, ensuring the positional stability of the pipes during high-speed conveying. The design of the clamping cylinder allows the clamping rollers to respond and adjust quickly to adapt to pipes of different sizes and materials.

[0019] Furthermore, the take-up assembly includes a finished product frame, a wiring wheel, and a take-up limiting roller. A finished product roll support roller is rotatably mounted on the finished product frame. The finished product roll support roller is an adjustable expansion roller and is connected to a motor for transmission. The wiring wheel is movably mounted on one side of the finished product frame. The wiring wheel moves continuously laterally and intermittently vertically. The take-up limiting roller is installed at the start of take-up on the finished product frame and the wiring wheel. The cable passes through the take-up limiting roller and the wiring wheel in sequence and is then wound onto the finished product frame. The take-up limiting roller forms a grid-like structure through two vertical parallel rollers and two horizontal parallel rollers.

[0020] The finished roll support rollers, which are rotatably mounted on the finished roll rack, are adjustable and can adapt to finished rolls of different sizes. Through the transmission connection with the motor, precise speed control is achieved, ensuring the stability and uniformity of the finished rolls during the winding process. The wiring rollers are movably mounted on one side of the finished roll rack, and can move continuously laterally and intermittently vertically. This design allows the wiring rollers to flexibly adjust the distribution of the tubing during the winding process, preventing uneven stacking of wires on the finished roll, thereby improving the winding quality. The design of the limiting rollers not only guides the path of the tubing but also effectively reduces friction and wear.

[0021] Furthermore, the drilling assembly includes a drilling blade, a blade holder, a drilling transmission component, and a drilling motor. The drilling blade is mounted and moved along with the blade holder. The blade holder is connected to the drilling transmission component and moved by it. The rotating shaft of the drilling transmission component is connected to the drilling motor. The drilling blade and the blade holder move along a curved arc trajectory driven by the drilling transmission component. The drilling blade and the blade holder are moved by two sets of drilling transmission components, and the connection point between the blade holder and the two sets of drilling transmission components maintains a fixed distance from the rotating shaft of the two sets of drilling transmission components. The drilling transmission component is a crankshaft structure or a cam eccentric wheel structure.

[0022] The punch moves along the tool holder and along a curved trajectory driven by the punching transmission component. This motion allows the punch to achieve high-precision punching on the surface of pipes or materials, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of each hole. The punching transmission component is connected to the punching motor via a rotating shaft, enabling it to rotate quickly and drive the tool holder and punch to perform efficient punching operations. This avoids the pause time between each punching operation, improves the overall punching speed, and thus increases production efficiency.

[0023] Furthermore, the inlay assembly includes an inlay head, a horizontal moving frame, and a vertical moving frame. The inlay head is respectively mounted on the horizontal and vertical moving frames and is driven to move laterally and vertically by the horizontal and vertical moving frames, respectively. The horizontal moving frame is slidably mounted on a horizontal moving rail and is provided with rollers that are driven by a horizontal moving cam. A horizontal moving spring is elastically connected to the horizontal moving frame, which is driven to move back and forth laterally by the cooperation of the horizontal moving cam and the horizontal moving spring. The vertical moving frame is slidably mounted on a vertical moving rail and is provided with a flat plate that is driven by a vertical moving cam. A vertical moving spring is elastically connected to the vertical moving frame, which is driven to move back and forth vertically by the cooperation of the vertical moving cam and the vertical moving spring. A clamping device is provided on the discharge side of the inlay assembly, and the clamping device presses the dripper into place on the pipeline through an inclined groove.

[0024] The insert head is mounted on the horizontal and vertical moving frames, and the cooperation between the two enables precise horizontal and vertical movement. This design ensures the flexibility of the insert head in three-dimensional space and can accurately position it at the required position, thereby improving the accuracy of the insert. The horizontal and vertical moving frames are connected by horizontal and vertical moving cams respectively, ensuring the stable movement of the insert head. The cam structure provides a fast and smooth motion curve, reducing positional deviations caused by unstable movement. Both the horizontal and vertical moving frames are elastically connected with corresponding springs, and the automatic adjustment of the return position is achieved through the action of the springs. The clamping device set on the discharge side can accurately press the dripper onto the pipeline through the inclined groove design.

[0025] Furthermore, the inlay processing device also includes a control component, which includes a measuring wheel and an end face sensor. The shaft of the measuring wheel is connected to an encoder, and a measuring clamping wheel is movably mounted on one side of the measuring wheel. The measuring clamping wheel is driven by a measuring clamping cylinder to perform the operation of moving closer to and away from the measuring wheel. The measuring wheel and the measuring clamping wheel cooperate to clamp the pipe being tested and rotate friably as the pipe is conveyed. The end face sensor is installed at the rear of the inlay processing device and faces the pipeline for detection.

[0026] The insert head achieves precise horizontal and vertical movement through the horizontal and vertical movement frames. The horizontal and vertical movement frames provide smooth sliding paths through the horizontal and vertical movement rails, respectively, ensuring the positioning accuracy of the insert head. The horizontal and vertical movement frames are connected by the horizontal and vertical movement cams, respectively, ensuring the smoothness of the system's movement. The cam transmission mechanism provides a smooth motion curve. Horizontal and vertical movement springs are respectively installed on the horizontal and vertical movement frames, and the elasticity of the springs enables rapid return and adjustment.

[0027] Furthermore, the dripper feeding device includes a vibratory plate, a feeding rail, and a material support protrusion. The feeding rail is installed at the end of the vibratory plate conveying, and the feeding rail conveying end is connected to the inlay assembly. The material support protrusion is provided at the end of the feeding rail, and the material support protrusion is directly opposite the inlay head of the inlay assembly.

[0028] The use of a vibratory feeder enables automated sorting and conveying of drippers. The vibratory feeder can arrange the drippers neatly through vibration and gradually convey them to the feeding rail, reducing manual intervention and improving production efficiency. The material support protrusion at the end of the feeding rail is aligned with the inlay head of the inlay assembly, ensuring precise positioning of the drippers when they reach the inlay position. The design of the material support protrusion allows the drippers to be accurately fed into the inlay head, reducing positional deviation and ensuring high precision in the inlay process.

[0029] Furthermore, a preheating device is provided between the pipe conveying device and the inlay processing device, and winding assemblies are provided on both sides of the preheating device, through which the pipe passes or is wound on the winding assemblies.

[0030] The preheating device softens the pipe material by heating the pipe fittings, which is beneficial for processing pipe fittings in winter or low-temperature environments, reduces stress deformation of the pipe fittings, and lowers the possibility of damage to the pipe fittings during processing. The winding assembly is used to guide the pipe fittings for transport, ensuring smooth transport of the pipe fittings when the preheating device is not used.

[0031] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0032] 1. The pipe fitting conveying device is designed to continuously transport pipe fittings for processing, avoiding manual intervention and improving production efficiency. The inlay processing device performs cyclical drilling and inlay operations on the pipe fittings, ensuring accurate processing of all pipe fittings. The drilling component and the inlay component perform drilling and drip tip inlay on the pipe fittings respectively. The two work together to ensure that the drip tip inlay position is accurate, improving the precision and consistency of the product. The drip tip feeding device can select the direction of the drip tip and transport it to the inlay processing device, ensuring that the direction of each drip tip meets the requirements, improving the automation level and stability of the production line. It can be adjusted according to the size of different pipe fittings and drip tip specifications, has high adaptability, and can meet the production needs of various models and specifications.

[0054] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-7 The present invention will be described in further detail below. Example 1

[0055] This invention discloses an automated high-speed button inserting machine with a tube-type button dropper, referring to... Figure 1 ,include:

[0056] Pipe fitting conveying device 1 is used for continuously conveying pipe fittings for processing;

[0057] The inlay processing device 2 is installed on the conveying path of the pipe fitting conveying device 1 and is used to inlay the dripper onto the pipe fitting;

[0058] The inlay processing device 2 includes a drilling component 21 and an inlay component 22, wherein the drilling component 21 and the inlay component 22 respectively perform cyclic following drilling and inlaying of drip heads on the pipe fitting;

[0059] The dripper feeding device 3 is used to select the direction of the dripper and transport it to the inlay processing device 2 for inlay processing.

[0060] Start the pipe conveying device 1 to ensure that the pipes enter the processing area at a stable speed. This device is mainly responsible for providing a continuous flow of pipes for subsequent processing. Start the dripper feeding device 3. This device sorts the drippers by a vibrating plate and conveys them along the feeding track to the position to be inlaid in the inlay processing device 2. Start the inlay processing device 2. This device is installed on the pipe conveying path. The drilling component 21 is responsible for making precise holes in the pipes according to the set spacing and depth. After the drilling is completed, the inlay component 22 accurately inlays the drippers into the holes of the pipes.

[0061] The pipe moves to below the drilling assembly 21, and the drilling assembly starts working. The drill bit driven by the servo motor drills holes in the pipe. The pipe continues to move forward to below the inlay assembly 22. The inlay assembly picks up the dripper from the dripper feeding device 3 and embeds it into the drilled hole. Through the cyclic following technology, the drilling and inlay operations are synchronized with the movement of the pipe, improving processing efficiency and accuracy.

[0062] The entire system is automated by using a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) or an industrial computer to monitor and adjust the working status of each link in real time. Processing parameters such as dropper spacing, drilling depth and inlay force are set on the panel to ensure that the equipment operates in the best condition. Example 2

[0063] Based on Example 1, the following is added:

[0064] Reference Figure 1 The pipe conveying device 1 includes an outgoing component 11, a pulling component 12, and a take-up component 13. The outgoing component 11 is installed at the front end of the inlay processing device 2 and is used to convey the pipe to be processed to the inlay processing device 2. The take-up component 13 is installed at the rear end of the inlay processing device 2 and is used to receive the pipe processed by the inlay processing device 2. The pulling component 12 is installed between the outgoing component 11 and the take-up component 13 and is used to pull the pipe for continuous conveying.

[0065] The lead-out assembly 11 is activated. This assembly is responsible for drawing the pipe to be processed out of the rack or drum and accurately guiding it into the inlet of the inlay processing device 2. The pulling assembly 12 is activated. This assembly is located between the lead-out assembly 11 and the take-up assembly 13. It is responsible for providing a constant traction force to maintain the tension and speed stability of the pipe during processing. The take-up assembly 13 is activated. After the inlay processing device 2 completes the processing of the pipe, the take-up assembly is responsible for winding or tidying up the processed pipe for subsequent packaging or transportation. The take-up assembly is usually equipped with an automatic tension control system to prevent the pipe from being overstretched or loosened.

[0066] Ensure synchronized operation between the lead-out assembly, pulling assembly, and take-up assembly to maintain constant speed and tension of the pipe throughout the processing. Adjust the speed and tension control parameters of the pulling assembly 12 as needed to adapt to different pipe materials and specifications, preventing bending or deformation of the pipe during processing. Coordinate the actions of each component through a PLC or other automated control system to ensure smoothness and efficiency of the processing.

[0067] Reference Figure 2 The lead-out assembly 11 includes a raw material rack 111, a lead-out wheel 112, and a lead-out limiting roller 113. A raw material roll support roller is rotatably mounted on the raw material rack 111. The raw material roll support roller is an adjustable expansion roller and is connected to a motor for transmission. The main shaft of the raw material roll support roller is connected to a damping brake component. The lead-out wheel 112 and the lead-out limiting roller 113 are installed on one side of the raw material rack 111. The lead-out limiting roller 113 forms a grid-like structure through two vertical parallel rollers and two horizontal parallel rollers. The raw material roll lead-out tube passes through the lead-out limiting roller 113 and the lead-out wheel 112 in sequence.

[0068] Start the motor on the raw material rack 111. This motor drives the raw material roll support roller to rotate. Since the support roller is an adjustable expansion roller, it is necessary to adjust the adaptability of the expansion roller during startup to ensure that it fits tightly against the raw material roll, ensuring that the raw material roll can rotate stably and will not slip. Adjust the damping brake component of the raw material roll support roller to ensure that the raw material roll will not rotate too fast due to inertia during the lead-out process, avoiding damage to the pipe surface or equipment failure due to excessive lead-out. Ensure that the lead-out limit roller 113 and lead-out wheel 112 are installed in the correct positions. The lead-out limit roller 113, through the grid structure of vertical and horizontal parallel rollers, ensures that the pipe will not deviate or curl during the lead-out process. This structure helps the pipe to maintain a straight flow during the conveying process. Adjust the expansion degree of the raw material roll support roller and the damping brake force according to the processing requirements and production line speed to ensure that the pipe is not subjected to excessive force or deformation during the conveying process.

[0069] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The tensioning assembly 12 includes a tensioning wheel 121, a tensioning motor 122, a pressing wheel 123, and a pressing cylinder 124. Two sets of tensioning wheels 121 are arranged side by side and connected to the same set of tensioning motors 122 through a transmission device. The pressing wheel 123 is telescopically mounted on one side of the tensioning wheel 121 through the pressing cylinder 124 and moves telescopically toward the tensioning wheel 121.

[0070] Start the tensioning motor 122, which drives two sets of tensioning rollers 121. The tensioning rollers 121 are connected to the motor through a transmission device to ensure that the tensioning rollers 121 can rotate synchronously when the motor starts, providing the required traction force to the pipe. Adjust the clamping cylinder 124. By controlling the extension and retraction of the clamping cylinder, adjust the pressure of the clamping roller 123 to maintain an appropriate contact pressure with the tensioning roller 121, ensuring that the pipe receives sufficient friction to prevent slippage when passing between the two rollers, but it should not be too tight to avoid damaging the pipe.

[0071] Reference Figure 2 The take-up assembly 13 includes a finished product frame 131, a wiring wheel 132, and a take-up limiting roller 133. A finished product roll support roller is rotatably mounted on the finished product frame 131. The finished product roll support roller is an adjustable expansion roller and is connected to a motor for transmission. The wiring wheel 132 is movably mounted on one side of the finished product frame 131. The wiring wheel 132 moves continuously laterally and intermittently vertically. The take-up limiting roller 133 is installed at the take-up start end of the finished product frame 131 and the wiring wheel 132. The cable passes through the take-up limiting roller 133 and the wiring wheel 132 in sequence and is then wound onto the finished product frame 131. The take-up limiting roller 133 forms a grid-like structure through two vertical parallel rollers and two horizontal parallel rollers.

[0072] The motor on the finished roll support roller is started, which drives the finished roll support roller to rotate. The finished roll support roller is an adjustable expansion roller, so the expansion degree needs to be adjusted to adapt to finished rolls of different sizes, ensuring tight fit and preventing slippage. The position of the wiring wheel 132 is adjusted. The wiring wheel is movably mounted on one side of the finished roll frame and can move continuously laterally and intermittently vertically. This adjustment ensures that the tubing can be evenly wound on the finished roll, avoiding overlap or unevenness. The wiring wheel 132 moves continuously laterally to ensure the uniform distribution of tubing on the finished roll, and adjusts the layers by intermittent vertical movement to ensure the tight arrangement of each layer of tubing. The moving speed and intermittent movement frequency of the wiring wheel are adjusted according to the winding speed and tubing diameter to adapt to different types and specifications of tubing, ensuring the neatness and stability of the finished roll. Example 3

[0073] Based on Example 1, the following is added:

[0074] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The drilling assembly 21 includes a drilling blade 211, a blade holder 212, a drilling transmission component 213, and a drilling motor 214. The drilling blade 211 is mounted and moved along with the blade holder 212. The blade holder 212 is connected to the drilling transmission component 213 and is driven to move by the drilling transmission component 213. The rotating shaft of the drilling transmission component 213 is connected to the drilling motor 214. The drilling blade 211 and the blade holder 212 move along a curved arc trajectory driven by the drilling transmission component 213. The drilling blade 211 and the blade holder 212 are driven to move by two sets of drilling transmission components 213, and the connection point between the blade holder 212 and the two sets of drilling transmission components 213 maintains a fixed distance from the rotating shaft of the two sets of drilling transmission components 213. The drilling transmission component 213 is a crankshaft structure or a cam eccentric wheel structure.

[0075] Start the drilling motor 214. The drilling motor is connected to the drilling transmission component 213 via a rotating shaft to drive the movement of the drilling transmission component. Check the structure of the drilling transmission component 213. According to the equipment design, the drilling transmission component can be a crankshaft structure or a cam eccentric wheel structure to ensure that the drilling knife 211 and the tool holder 212 can move along the curved arc trajectory during the movement. Adjust the position of the tool holder 212. The tool holder is connected to the drilling transmission component 213 and is driven to move through the transmission component to ensure that the drilling knife 211 can be accurately positioned at the position where drilling is required.

[0076] After the drilling motor 214 starts, the drilling transmission component 213 begins to rotate. Due to the crankshaft or cam eccentric wheel design of the transmission component, the tool holder 212 and the drilling tool 211 on it will move along the preset curved arc trajectory. Driven by the tool holder 212, the drilling tool 211 moves along the set trajectory to the workpiece surface to perform the drilling operation. Since the connection point between the tool holder and the two sets of drilling transmission components 213 maintains a fixed distance from the rotating shaft, the accuracy and consistency of the drilling are ensured. After the drilling is completed, the drilling tool 211 and the tool holder 212 return to the initial position under the action of the transmission component, ready for the next drilling operation.

[0077] Reference Figures 4-7 The inlay assembly 22 includes an inlay head 221, a horizontal movement frame 222, and a vertical movement frame 226. The inlay head 221 is respectively mounted on the horizontal movement frame 222 and the vertical movement frame 226 and is driven by the horizontal movement frame 222 and the vertical movement frame 226 to move laterally and vertically, respectively. The horizontal movement frame 222 is slidably mounted on the horizontal movement rail 223. The horizontal movement frame 222 is provided with rollers and is driven by the horizontal movement cam 224. A horizontal movement spring 225 is elastically connected to the horizontal movement frame 222. The horizontal movement frame 222 is driven by the horizontal movement cam. 224 and the horizontal spring 225 work together to drive the horizontal back and forth movement. The vertical frame 226 is slidably mounted on the vertical rail 227. The vertical frame 226 is provided with a flat plate and is connected to the vertical cam 228 for transmission. The vertical frame 226 is elastically connected with a vertical spring 229. The vertical frame 226 is driven to move vertically back and forth through the cooperation of the vertical cam 228 and the vertical spring 229. The insert assembly 22 is provided with a clamp 220 on the discharge side. The clamp 220 uses a sloping groove to press the dripper into place on the pipeline.

[0078] Check the installation status of the insert head 221 to ensure that the insert head is fixed on the horizontal moving frame 222 and the vertical moving frame 226 respectively, and can move freely on the horizontal and vertical tracks. Test the horizontal movement system of the horizontal moving frame 222. The horizontal moving frame is slidably installed on the horizontal moving rail 223. It moves back and forth horizontally through the rotation of the horizontal moving cam 224 and the elastic action of the horizontal moving spring 225. Test the vertical movement system of the vertical moving frame 226. The vertical moving frame is slidably installed on the vertical moving rail 227. It moves back and forth vertically through the rotation of the vertical moving cam 228 and the elastic action of the vertical moving spring 229.

[0079] Driven by the horizontal moving frame 222, the insert head 221 moves laterally on the horizontal moving rail 223 and is positioned to insert the drip tip as the pipe is conveyed. The vertical moving frame 226 starts and moves the insert head 221 downward on the vertical moving rail 227 to accurately insert the drip tip into the pipeline. After the insertion is completed, the vertical moving frame 226 moves the insert head 221 upward back to the initial position to prepare for the next insertion operation.

[0080] The clamp 220 on the discharge side is activated, pressing the embedded dripper into place on the pipeline through the inclined groove, ensuring the stability and firmness of the dripper.

[0081] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The inlay processing device 2 also includes a control component 23, which includes a measuring wheel 231 and an end face sensor 234. The shaft of the measuring wheel 231 is connected to an encoder. A measuring clamping wheel 232 is movably mounted on one side of the measuring wheel 231. The measuring clamping wheel 232 is driven by a measuring clamping cylinder 233 to move closer to and away from the measuring wheel 231. The measuring wheel 231 and the measuring clamping wheel 232 cooperate to clamp the pipe being tested and rotate friably as the pipe is conveyed. The end face sensor 234 is installed behind the inlay processing device 2 and faces the pipeline for detection.

[0082] Check the installation status of measuring wheel 231 and measuring clamping wheel 232, ensuring that measuring wheel 231 is connected to the encoder via the rotating shaft and that measuring clamping wheel 232 can move freely under the action of measuring clamping cylinder 233. Activate measuring clamping cylinder 233 to bring measuring clamping wheel 232 close to measuring wheel 231 and clamp the pipe to be measured. The clamping of the two wheels ensures that the pipe can be measured stably during the transmission process.

[0083] After the measuring wheel 231 and the measuring clamping wheel 232 clamp the pipe fitting, the measuring wheel 231 begins to rotate due to friction as the pipe fitting is conveyed. The rotating measuring wheel records the moving distance and speed of the pipe fitting in real time through the encoder. During the inlay process, the end face sensor 234 is used to detect the end face position of the pipe fitting to ensure that the inlay head 221 can be accurately positioned and inlayed. Based on the data provided by the measuring wheel 231 and the end face sensor 234, the control component 23 adjusts the movement trajectory and speed of the inlay head to achieve precise inlay operation. Example 4

[0084] Based on Example 1 or 3, the following additions are made:

[0085] Reference Figure 2 The dripper feeding device 3 includes a vibratory plate 31, a feeding rail 32, and a material support protrusion 33. The feeding rail 32 is installed at the end of the vibratory plate 31. The feeding rail 32 is connected to the inlay assembly 22 at the end of the feeding rail 32. The material support protrusion 33 is provided at the end of the feeding rail 32. The material support protrusion 33 is directly opposite the inlay head 221 of the inlay assembly 22.

[0086] The vibratory feeder 31 is activated, causing the drippers to rotate under vibration. The vibratory feeder 31 will transport the drippers one by one to the starting position of the feeding rail 32. The drippers slide along the rail and move forward on the feeding rail 32. Due to the design of the feeding rail, the drippers will remain in the center of the rail to ensure that they can be smoothly delivered to the material support protrusion 33. When the dripper approaches the end of the feeding rail 32, the material support protrusion 33 will contact the dripper and push it to the position of the setting head 221 of the setting assembly 22. The material support protrusion 33 ensures that the dripper is accurately positioned and provides stable support for the setting operation. The setting head 221 starts and accurately receives the dripper, completing the setting work. After setting is completed, the device is ready for the feeding and setting of the next dripper.

[0087] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A preheating device 4 is provided between the pipe conveying device 1 and the inlay processing device 2. Winding assemblies 41 are provided on both sides of the preheating device 4. The pipe passes through the preheating device 4 or is wound on the winding assembly 41.

[0088] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
