DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The technical solution of the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0022] like Figure 1As shown, an embodiment of the present invention proposes a cloth guide rod circulation device, including a support frame 5, a plurality of first power components 12, a first conveying chain group 1, a first switching component, a second switching component and a transverse transfer component. The circulation device is arranged in a drying workshop. The first conveying chain group 1 is composed of two parallel chains, which are arranged on the top of the support frame 5 and are rotatably connected to the support frame 5. The interval between the two chains is less than the length of the cloth guide rod 6, so that the two ends of the cloth guide rod 6 can contact the chain. The first power component 12 is used to drive the chains on both sides of the first conveying chain group 1 to move synchronously and avoid contact with the cloth guide rod 6 and the cloth on the chain. The cloth hangs downward between adjacent cloth guide rods 6. The first power component 12 needs to avoid motion interference with the cloth and the cloth guide rod 6. The first switching component is used to move the cloth guide rod 6 to the bottom of the strip cloth for support, and send the cloth guide rod 6 back to the starting end of the first conveying chain group 1. The second switching component is used to move the cloth guide rod 6 downward at the tail end of the first conveying chain group 1. The lateral transfer assembly is used to transfer the cloth guide rod 6 on the second switching assembly to the first switching assembly. The cloth is transmitted to the inside of the support frame 5 by the transmission wheel. When the cloth is suspended inside the support frame 5, it will not come into contact with the support frame 5, so as to avoid affecting the quality of the cloth. In this embodiment, the number of the first power assemblies 12 is reasonably set according to the length of the first transmission chain group 1 and the weight of the cloth hung on the cloth guide rod 6, and the first power assemblies 12 are arranged at intervals.

[0023] Preferably, contact blocks that contact the top of the first conveying chain group 1 are fixedly provided at both ends of the cloth guide rod 6. The bottom surface of the contact block contacts the top surface of the chain. In this embodiment, when the cloth guide rod 6 is directly placed on the chain, the chain can drive the cloth guide rod 6 to move.

[0024] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, preferably, the first switching assembly includes a second transmission chain group 14 and a second power assembly 13, the second transmission chain group 14 is composed of two parallel chains, the second transmission chain group 14 is arranged on one side of the support frame 5, and the second transmission chain group 14 includes a first transmission section 2 and a second transmission section 3, and the inclination angle of the first transmission section 2 is greater than the inclination angle of the second transmission section 3. The second power assembly 13 is used to drive the chains on both sides of the second transmission chain group 14 to move synchronously and avoid contact with the cloth guide rod 6 and the cloth on the chain. The second power assembly 13 is connected to the driving gear at the highest point of the second transmission chain group 14. In order to allow the cloth to have a sufficiently long hanging section between the two cloth guide rods 6, the cloth guide rods 6 are set at a sufficient height from the ground. The inclination angle of the first transmission section 2 is large, so that the cloth guide rod 6 can be moved to a certain height within a short distance. The inclination angle of the second transmission section 3 is small, so that the cloth can fall down from the gap between two adjacent cloth guide rods 6.

[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, preferably, the second switching assembly includes a third conveying chain group 4, and the third conveying chain group 4 includes two chains parallel to each other, one end of the third conveying chain group 4 is adjacent to the tail end of the first conveying chain group 1, and the two share the same conveying axis; the other end of the third conveying chain group 4 is tilted downward. The chains of the third conveying chain group 4 are sequentially provided with second limit blocks 7 for blocking the sliding of the contact block. The inclination angle of the third conveying chain group 4 is relatively large, and the cloth guide rod 6 will slide on the third conveying chain group 4. In order to avoid the impact caused by the rapid fall of the cloth guide rod 6, the cloth guide rod 6 is transported to the bottom one by one through the second limit block 7.

[0026] Preferably, the conveying route of the first conveying chain group 1 is U-shaped, so that the cloth enters the support frame 5 and exits the support frame 5 on the same side.

[0027] like Figure 1 , 4 As shown, as a preference, the lateral transfer assembly includes a conveyor belt, a U-shaped groove 9 and a fourth motor, the U-shaped groove 9 is horizontally arranged and perpendicular to the chains of the first switching assembly and the second switching assembly, and one end of the U-shaped groove 9 is located on one side of the second switching assembly for receiving the falling cloth guide rod 6. A guide plate 8 is fixedly arranged on the top surface of the other end of the U-shaped groove 9, and an outlet is arranged on one side of the U-shaped groove 9. A guide groove 15 is arranged below the outlet for sliding the cloth guide rod 6 to the starting end of the second conveying chain group 14. The U-shaped groove 9 is provided with an arc-shaped stopper 11 at the tail end of the third conveying chain group 4 for preventing the cloth guide rod 6 from popping out. The fourth motor is used to drive the conveyor belt to rotate. In this embodiment, the cloth guide rod 6 is made of metal, so it has a certain weight, and the U-shaped groove 9 plays a role in supporting the conveyor belt, so that the conveyor belt can drive the cloth guide rod 6 to move. After the cloth guide rod 6 is separated from the second switching assembly, it falls into the U-shaped groove 9. When the cloth guide rod 6 is moved to the other end of the U-shaped groove 9, the end of the cloth guide rod 6 contacts the guide plate 8, causing the cloth guide rod 6 to fall from the outlet. The width of the guide groove 15 is adapted to the cloth guide rod 6, so that the cloth guide rod 6 continues to move downward after being corrected to a horizontal state, so as to be transmitted to the first switching assembly. The fourth motor is fixedly connected to the support frame 5, and the output shaft of the fourth motor is connected to the support wheel at the end of the conveyor belt.

[0028] Preferably, the chains on both sides of the second conveying chain group 14 are sequentially and spaced apart with first limit blocks 10 for driving the contact blocks at both ends of the cloth guide rod 6 to move upward, and the first limit block 10 is a long strip structure, and the top surface of the first limit block 10 is tilted downward toward the tail of the moving direction. The first limit block 10 is divided into several blocks and connected to the chain. When the chain drives the first limit block 10 to move upward, the side surface of the first limit block 10 contacts the side surface of the contact block, and the cloth guide rod 6 behind contacts the top surface of the first limit block 10, although the inclined surface gradually slides to a position close to the chain, to prevent the cloth guide rod 6 from rushing downward quickly.

[0029] Preferably, the first conveying chain group 1 is provided with an inclined section near the second switching assembly, and the inclined section facilitates rapid downward movement of the cloth and the cloth guide rod 6 when they are separated.

[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, preferably, the first power assembly 12 includes a motor, two gear sets 17 and a transmission shaft 18, the transmission shaft 18 is horizontally arranged above the two chains of the first conveying chain group 1 and is provided with a gap, the gear set 17 is rotatably connected to the support frame 5, the output end of the gear set 17 is meshed with the gear set at the end of the transmission shaft 18, and the input section of the gear set 17 is meshed with the driving gear of the chain. The motor is used to drive the transmission shaft 18 to rotate. In this embodiment, when the transmission shaft 18 is placed above the chain, the cloth guide rod 6 will not be blocked from moving from the chain, and the cloth hanging below will not be blocked.

[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solution of the present invention can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solution of the present invention, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
