Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of brush processing equipment, and in particular to an automatic brush production equipment. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous improvement of people's living standards and the increasing demands for efficiency and effectiveness in home cleaning, the market demand for vacuum cleaners, as a highly efficient and convenient cleaning tool, is showing a continuous growth trend. As a key accessory of vacuum cleaners, the performance and quality of vacuum cleaner brushes directly affect the cleaning effect and user experience; therefore, the demand for vacuum cleaner brushes is also constantly rising with the expansion of the vacuum cleaner market.

The distribution turntable has a cavity, and a lever is installed inside the cavity. One end of the lever is connected to a cleaning ball via a first connecting rod, and the other end of the lever is connected to a pushing plate via a second connecting rod. The cleaning ball extends out of the edge of the distribution turntable. The first lever and the cleaning ball are located behind the corresponding material picking opening in the running direction.

The metal wire cutting mechanism includes a lifting platform located below the output end of the conveyor belt and a cutting pliers mounted on the lifting platform.
[0004] The relevant technologies focus on realizing the basic functions of brushes, while neglecting the important impact of the diversity and exquisiteness of the appearance design on the market acceptance of brush products as consumer goods. As a result, the twisted brushes produced have limitations in structural diversity and aesthetics, and cannot meet the market's demand for high-quality and diversified appearance of brush products. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the problem that existing technologies for producing twisted brushes often focus excessively on the basic functions of the brush while neglecting its appearance, resulting in suboptimal product structure and aesthetics that fail to meet market demands for high-quality, diverse-looking brushes, this application provides an automated brush production device.
[0006] The automatic brush production equipment provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] An automatic brush production device includes a frame on which a brush feeding device, a brush conveying device, a cutting device, a trimming device, and a winding device are sequentially arranged. Two wire guiding devices are also provided on the frame, each used to simultaneously convey two metal wires to the brush conveying device. The brush feeding device is mounted on the frame, positioned above the brush conveying device, and is used to accommodate multiple brushes while sequentially conveying a specific number of brushes to the brush conveying device. The brush conveying device is used to sequentially convey an appropriate amount of brushes to the two wire conveying devices. Between the metal wires, the winding device is used to clamp one end of two metal wires and drive one end of the two metal wires to rotate. During the rotation, the two metal wires are wound around each other, fixing multiple brushes located between the two metal wires. At the same time, multiple brushes that were originally parallel are rotated at different angles in sequence, so that multiple brushes gradually change from a planar structure to a three-dimensional columnar structure. The trimming device is used to trim the free ends of the multiple brushes after they are wound and fixed. The cutting device is located after the trimming device and is used to cut the two wound metal wires at the same time after the brushes have completed the winding and trimming processes, so as to complete the production of a single brush product.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the automatic brush production equipment integrates various devices into a complete production system through a frame. The brush feeding device accurately accommodates and orderly conveys a specific number of brushes to the brush conveying device. Two wire guiding devices simultaneously convey two metal wires to their respective positions. The brush conveying device then accurately conveys an appropriate amount of brushes between the two metal wires. The winding device clamps one end of the two metal wires and rotates them, causing the metal wires to wind around each other. While fixing the brushes, it cleverly rotates multiple originally parallel brushes at different angles in sequence, transforming the planar structure of the brushes into a three-dimensional columnar structure, greatly enriching the brush structure styles. The trimming device then performs fine trimming on the free ends of the wound and fixed brushes, improving the product's aesthetics. Finally, the cutting device precisely and simultaneously cuts the two wound metal wires, efficiently completing the production of a single brush product. The entire process is highly automated, effectively improving production efficiency and product quality, and fully meeting the market's demand for high-quality, diversified brush products.
[0009] Optionally, the brush feeding device includes a receiving mechanism, a top pushing mechanism, and a bottom feeding mechanism. The receiving mechanism includes two limiting members, both of which are fixed to the side wall of the frame and extend vertically. Multiple brushes are located between the two limiting members. The top pushing mechanism includes a first cylinder and a pushing component. The first cylinder is fixed to the frame, and its piston rod is fixedly connected to the pushing component. The first cylinder drives the pushing component to move up and down, and the pushing component, when descending, presses down on all the brushes. The bottom feeding mechanism includes a second cylinder and a blocking component. The blocking component is rotatably connected to the frame, and one end of the cylinder is rotatably connected to the frame. The piston rod of the second cylinder is rotatably connected to one end of the baffle, and the second cylinder is used to drive the baffle to rotate. The baffle is located at the bottom of the two limiting members and is used to prevent the brush from falling between the two limiting members. When feeding is required, the piston rod of the second cylinder retracts, driving the baffle to rotate downwards around its rotational connection point with the frame, so that the baffle separates from the brush. The bottommost brush falls downwards onto the brush conveying device under the action of gravity and the pressure generated by the brush above being squeezed by the pushing member. After a certain amount of brush feeding is completed, the piston rod of the second cylinder extends, driving the baffle to rotate in the opposite direction and return to the initial horizontal state to prevent subsequent brushes from falling.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the brush feeding device precisely defines the brush storage space using two vertically extending limiting members. The top pushing mechanism, driven by a first cylinder, raises and lowers the pushing member, applying downward pressure to the brush. The bottom feeding mechanism, driven by a second cylinder, rotates a blocking member. When feeding is needed, the blocking member rotates downward to clear the channel. The bottom brush, under the combined action of its own weight and the pressure from the brushes above, falls precisely into the brush conveying device. After quantitative feeding is completed, the blocking member quickly rotates in the opposite direction to return to its initial horizontal state, effectively preventing subsequent brushes from falling. This achieves precise control and orderly brush feeding, ensuring a stable quantity each time, improving the automation and accuracy of the feeding process in brush production, laying a good foundation for the efficient and stable operation of subsequent production processes, and contributing to improved overall production efficiency and product quality.
[0011] Optionally, the brush conveying device includes a first brush conveying device and a second brush conveying device. The first brush conveying device includes a first rotating disk, a first eccentric rod, a first motor, a second rotating disk, a second eccentric rod, a connecting rod, a fan-shaped turntable, and a fixed disk. The first motor is fixed to the frame, and the output shaft of the first motor is fixedly connected to the first rotating disk. The first eccentric rod is fixed at an eccentric position on the first rotating disk. The second rotating disk is rotatably connected to the frame, and the second eccentric rod is fixed at an eccentric position on the second rotating disk. One end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the first eccentric rod, and the other end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the second eccentric rod. The fan-shaped turntable is fixed to the second rotating disk, and the fixed disk is fixed to the frame. An arc-shaped groove is formed on one side of the fixed disk facing the fan-shaped turntable. A feeding channel for conveying brushes is provided between the arc-shaped surface of the fan-shaped turntable and the arc-shaped groove. Multiple pushing parts are spaced apart on the arc-shaped surface of the fan-shaped turntable. The second brush conveying device is located below the first brush conveying device.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the first brush conveying device uses a first motor to drive the first rotating disk to rotate. Then, through a linkage mechanism consisting of an eccentrically set first eccentric rod, a connecting rod, and a second eccentric rod, it drives the second rotating disk and the fan-shaped turntable fixed on it to reciprocate. The fan-shaped turntable cooperates with the arc-shaped groove on the fixed disk to form a feeding channel. Multiple pushing parts on the arc surface of the fan-shaped turntable can orderly push the brushes along the feeding channel, achieving precise brush conveying. The second brush conveying device is located below it and can cooperate with the first brush conveying device to complete the transfer and positioning of brushes between different process stages. Utilizing the motion characteristics of the linkage mechanism, the rotational motion of the first motor is converted into the reciprocating oscillation of the fan-shaped turntable, making the brush conveying process smooth and rhythmically controllable. The interval setting of multiple pushing parts further ensures the continuity and stability of brush conveying, improves the efficiency and accuracy of brush conveying, provides a reliable guarantee for the smooth operation of subsequent brush processing processes, and helps to improve the production efficiency and product quality of the entire automatic brush production equipment.
[0013] Optionally, the end of the material stop facing the fixed plate is provided with a clearance groove for the fixed plate to pass through, and the width of the clearance groove is greater than the thickness of the fixed plate; when the material stop rotates, the fixed plate and the clearance groove are in clearance fit.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, a clearance groove with a width greater than the thickness of the fixed plate is opened at the end of the material stop facing the fixed plate, and the fixed plate and the clearance groove are fitted with a clearance when the material stop rotates. This solves the structural interference problem that may occur between the material stop and the fixed plate during the rotating feeding process. When the material stop rotates to feed the brush or prevent the brush from falling, the clearance groove provides sufficient space for the fixed plate, ensuring that the material stop can complete its rotation smoothly and without obstruction. This ensures that the normal operation of the material stop is not affected by the obstruction of the fixed plate, and also ensures the compactness and stability of the overall device structure. In this way, the brush feeding device can accurately and efficiently perform the feeding task, improve the smoothness and reliability of the entire automatic brush production equipment, reduce the equipment failure rate, and increase production efficiency.
[0015] Optionally, the pushing part is an inclined protrusion, the protrusion includes a tip, the tip of the protrusion faces the winding device, the tip slides relative to the arc-shaped groove of the fixing plate, and a gap is provided between the tip and the arc-shaped groove for a quantitative brush to pass through.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the pusher section is an inclined protrusion with its tip facing the winding device. The tip slides relative to the arc-shaped groove of the fixing plate, forming a gap for the quantitative brushes to pass through. When the fan-shaped turntable rotates clockwise, the inclined protrusion of the pusher section effectively pushes the brushes towards the winding device in the feeding channel by utilizing the relative sliding between its tip and the arc-shaped groove. Furthermore, due to the quantitative setting of the gap, the number of brushes pushed each time can be precisely controlled, ensuring that a suitable number of brushes participate in the subsequent winding process. When the fan-shaped turntable rotates counterclockwise, the tip of the pusher section slides back relative to the arc-shaped groove. At this time, the gap prevents unprocessed brushes from being accidentally moved due to inertia or other factors, causing conveying chaos, and prepares for the next clockwise rotation to push the brushes. By utilizing the structure of the pusher section and the gap, orderly control of pushing and retraction during brush conveying is achieved, precisely ensuring the stability of the number of brushes conveyed and the coordination of the conveying rhythm, effectively improving the reliability and efficiency of the brush conveying process.
[0017] Optionally, the second brush conveying device includes a driving rod, a driven rod, a first support, a second support, a second motor, and at least two feeding mechanisms. The first support and the second support are both fixed to the frame. Both ends of the driving rod are rotatably connected to the first support, and both ends of the driven rod are rotatably connected to the second support. The second motor is fixed to the frame, and the output shaft of the second motor is fixedly connected to the end of the driving rod. Each feeding mechanism includes a driving sprocket, a chain, and a driven sprocket. The driving sprocket is sleeved on the driving rod and fixedly connected to it. The driven sprocket is sleeved on the driven rod and fixedly connected to it. The chain is arranged around the driving sprocket and the driven sprocket. Multiple feeding rods are spaced apart along the length of the outer side wall of each chain.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the second brush conveying device uses the first and second supports to securely install the driving rod and driven rod on the frame. The second motor drives the driving rod to rotate, which in turn drives the driving sprocket mounted on it. Since the driven sprocket is fixed to the driven rod and the chain connects the driving and driven sprockets, the rotation of the driving sprocket drives the chain to run smoothly. Multiple feeding rods spaced along the length of the chain move with the chain. When a brush enters the working area of the second brush conveying device, the feeding rods can precisely push the brush along a specific direction. The sprocket and chain transmission mechanism achieves stability and continuity in the brush conveying process. The spaced distribution of multiple feeding rods not only ensures the rhythm of brush conveying but also adapts to the conveying needs of brushes of different sizes, improving the versatility of the device. Simultaneously, the direct drive of the driving rod by the second motor is simple in structure and has high transmission efficiency, effectively improving the efficiency and reliability of the brush conveying process. This provides a strong guarantee for the smooth operation of subsequent processes in the automatic brush production equipment, contributing to improved overall production efficiency and product quality.
[0019] Optionally, a limiting rod is fixedly provided on the fixed plate. The limiting rod extends in the horizontal direction and is located above the top chain. A gap is provided between the lower surface of the limiting rod and the upper surface of the chain for the brush to be conveyed.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, a limiting rod extending horizontally is set on the fixed plate, positioned above the top chain and maintaining a gap with the upper surface of the chain for brush conveying. This plays a crucial role in limiting and guiding the brush during the brush conveying process. When the chain drives the feeding rod to move the brush, the gap between the lower surface of the limiting rod and the upper surface of the chain forms a stable conveying channel, effectively constraining the brush's movement trajectory and preventing the brush from deviating from the predetermined path due to shaking, offset, or overturning during conveying. This ensures that the brush is always conveyed smoothly along the correct direction, guaranteeing the accuracy and stability of brush conveying. At the same time, this gap also meets the needs of the brush passing normally without obstructing the brush conveying, making the entire conveying process smooth and efficient.
[0021] Optionally, the winding device includes a first sliding seat, a first sliding drive mechanism, a rotating rod, a first rotating drive mechanism, and a wire clamping mechanism. The first sliding seat slides with the frame, and the first sliding drive mechanism is mounted on the frame. The first sliding drive mechanism drives the first sliding seat to move along a first direction. The rotating rod is rotatably connected to the first sliding seat, and the first rotating drive mechanism drives the rotating rod to rotate. The wire clamping mechanism includes a movable sleeve, a third cylinder, two clamping members, and two springs. The two clamping members are located on opposite sides of the rotating rod, and the middle of each clamping member is rotatably connected to the rotating rod. The movable sleeve is sleeved on the rotating rod. The movable sleeve slides in conjunction with the rotating rod. The third cylinder is mounted on the first sliding seat and is used to drive the movable sleeve to move axially along the rotating rod. The outer wall of the movable sleeve facing the clamping member has an annular driving chamfer. The ends of the two clamping members near the movable sleeve are rotatably equipped with bearings, and the two bearings abut against the surface of the driving chamfer. One end of each spring is connected to the end of the corresponding clamping member away from the rotating rod, and the other end is connected to the rotating rod. The spring is used to provide a restoring force for the clamping members when the movable sleeve moves to open the two clamping members, and to provide an auxiliary clamping force when clamping the metal wire.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the first sliding seat slides and cooperates with the frame, and can move flexibly in the first direction under the action of the first sliding drive mechanism, which facilitates the adjustment of the winding position to adapt to different production needs; the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the first sliding seat and is driven to rotate by the first rotating drive mechanism, providing a power basis for the winding action. In the wire clamping mechanism, the third cylinder drives the moving sleeve to move axially along the rotating rod. Utilizing its annular drive chamfer and the abutment action of the bearing on the clamping member, the moving sleeve can drive the two clamping members to rotate around the center when it moves, realizing the action of clamping or releasing the metal wire; the spring is cleverly designed, which can provide a restoring force to make it automatically return to its position when the clamping member is opened, and can also provide an auxiliary clamping force when clamping the metal wire, enhancing the stability of the clamping.
[0023] Optionally, the trimming device includes a lifting seat, a lifting drive mechanism, a second sliding seat, a sliding drive mechanism, a housing, a rotating blade, a fixed blade, and a second rotating drive mechanism. The lifting seat slides with the frame, and the lifting drive mechanism is mounted on the frame and drives the lifting seat to move up and down. The second sliding seat slides with the lifting seat, and the sliding drive mechanism is mounted on the lifting seat and drives the second sliding seat to move horizontally. The housing is fixed to the second sliding seat, and the rotating blade is rotatably mounted inside the housing. The second rotating drive mechanism is mounted on the housing and drives the rotating blade to rotate. The fixed blade is fixed to the housing, and the rotating blade and the fixed blade cooperate to trim the ends of the brush.
[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the trimming device can be flexibly raised and lowered by sliding cooperation between the lifting seat and the frame under the action of the lifting drive mechanism. The second sliding seat slides and cooperates with the lifting seat and can move horizontally under the drive of the sliding drive mechanism. This multi-dimensional position adjustment design enables the trimming device to accurately position the brush to be trimmed to meet the trimming needs of brushes of different sizes and placement angles. The housing is fixed on the second sliding seat, providing a stable mounting base for the rotating blade and the fixed blade. The rotation setting of the rotating blade in the housing and the drive of the second rotating drive mechanism enable it to rotate at high speed. Cooperating with the fixed blade, the rotation of the rotating blade and the fixed position relationship of the fixed blade can efficiently and accurately trim the free end of the wound and fixed brush, effectively improving the product's aesthetics. At the same time, through the precise control of lifting and sliding and the coordinated operation of the rotating blade and the fixed blade, the stability and accuracy of the trimming process are ensured, greatly improving the automation level and trimming quality of the trimming process. This provides a strong guarantee for the entire automatic brush production equipment to produce high-quality brush products with neat appearance.
[0025] Optionally, the cutting device includes a fourth cylinder, a gripper cylinder, a linkage block, and two cutters; the fourth cylinder is mounted on the frame, and the piston rod of the fourth cylinder is fixedly connected to the gripper cylinder; the middle parts of the two cutters are rotatably connected to the linkage block, and the two grippers of the gripper cylinder are rotatably connected to one end of the two cutters respectively.
[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, the fourth cylinder is fixed on the frame, and its piston rod is connected to the gripper cylinder, which can drive the gripper cylinder to move as a whole, thereby flexibly adjusting the working position of the cutter to adapt to the cutting requirements of different brush processing scenarios. The two grippers of the gripper cylinder are rotatably connected to one end of the two cutters respectively. When the gripper cylinder is activated, the opening and closing motion of its grippers can drive the two cutters to rotate synchronously around the linkage block, so that the cutting edges of the cutters approach or separate from each other. When they approach each other, a shearing force is generated, which can quickly and cleanly cut the metal wires wrapped on the brush. The cutting process is stable and reliable, and the cut is highly flat. The linkage block, as the fulcrum of the cutter rotation, ensures the synchronicity and accuracy of the cutter movement and improves the consistency of the cutting operation.
[0027] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0028] 1. By integrating multiple devices such as brush feeding, conveying, winding, trimming, and cutting, a complete and coherent automated production system is formed.

[0038] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-5 This application will be described in further detail.
[0039] The terminology used in this application is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application. Unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used in this application should have the ordinary meaning understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains. The terms "first," "second," and similar terms used in this application do not indicate any order, quantity, or importance, but are merely used to distinguish different components.
[0040] For ease of understanding, in this embodiment, the length direction of the frame 1 is defined as the first direction and the width direction of the frame 1 is defined as the second direction. Based on this, the automatic brush production equipment will be described.
[0041] This application discloses an automated brush production device. (Refer to...) Figure 1The automatic brush production equipment includes a frame 1, a brush feeding device 2, a brush conveying device, a wire guiding device, a winding device 7, a trimming device 6, and a cutting device 5.
[0042] Reference Figure 1 The frame 1 includes a first workbench 11 and a second workbench 12 arranged sequentially along a first direction, with the first workbench 11 and the second workbench 12 spaced apart along the first direction. A support plate 13 is also fixedly provided on the upper surface of the first workbench 11, wherein a brush feeding device 2 is provided on the support plate 13, and the brush feeding device 2 is located above the brush conveying device. The brush feeding device 2 is used to accommodate multiple brushes and can sequentially convey a specific number of brushes to the brush conveying device.
[0043] Continue to refer to Figure 1 Specifically, the brush feeding device 2 includes a receiving mechanism 21, a top pushing mechanism 22, and a bottom feeding mechanism 23. The receiving mechanism 21 includes a connecting plate 211 and two limiting members 212. The connecting plate 211 is fixed to the side wall of the support plate 13. The two limiting members 212 are fixedly connected to the connecting plate 211. The two limiting members 212 are parallel to each other. Each limiting member 212 can extend vertically or be inclined. Multiple brushes are located between the two limiting members 212. The length direction of each brush is perpendicular to the surface of the support plate 13.
[0044] Continue to refer to Figure 1 The top pushing mechanism 22 includes a first cylinder 221 and a pushing component 222. The first cylinder 221 is fixed on the support plate 13. The piston rod of the first cylinder 221 is fixedly connected to the pushing component 222. The first cylinder 221 is used to drive the pushing component 222 to rise and fall. The pushing component 222 is located on top of all the brushes. When the pushing component 222 descends, it is used to squeeze all the brushes downward. When the number of brushes in the accommodating mechanism 21 gradually decreases, the height of the brush stack will decrease accordingly. If only the weight of the brushes themselves is relied upon, it may not be possible to ensure the stability and timeliness of the subsequent feeding action. At this time, the pusher 222 continues to move downward under the drive of the first cylinder 221, always maintaining the squeezing effect on the remaining brushes, providing stable downward pressure to the brushes, compensating for the problem of poor material feeding that may be caused by the reduction in the number of brushes and the weakening of gravity, so that the brushes at the bottom can always receive sufficient and stable downward pressure to maintain the normal feeding rhythm, and ensure that the brushes can smoothly and stably wait for the bottom feeding mechanism 23 to carry out the next feeding operation.
[0045] Continue to refer to Figure 1The bottom feeding mechanism 23 includes a second cylinder 231 and a baffle 232. The middle part of the baffle 232 is rotatably connected to the support plate 13 via a rotating shaft 233. The top of the second cylinder 231 is rotatably connected to the support plate 13, and the piston rod of the second cylinder 231 is rotatably connected to one end of the baffle 232. The second cylinder 231 is used to drive the baffle 232 to rotate. The baffle 232 is located at the bottom of the two limiting members 212 and is used to prevent the brush from falling between the two limiting members 212. When material needs to be fed, the piston rod of the second cylinder 231 retracts, driving the baffle 232 to rotate downwards around its rotational connection point with the frame 1, causing the baffle 232 to separate from the brush. The bottommost brush falls downwards onto the brush conveying device under the action of gravity and the pressure generated by the brush above being squeezed by the pusher 222. After a certain amount of brushes are fed, the piston rod of the second cylinder 231 extends, driving the baffle 232 to rotate in the opposite direction and return to the initial horizontal state to prevent subsequent brushes from falling.
[0046] Continue to refer to Figure 1 The brush feeding device 2 uses two vertically extending limiting members 212 to precisely define the brush storage space. The top pushing mechanism 22, driven by the first cylinder 221, raises and lowers the pushing member 222, applying downward pressure to the brush. The bottom feeding mechanism 23, driven by the second cylinder 231, rotates the blocking member 232. When feeding is needed, the blocking member 232 rotates downward to make way, and the bottom brush, under the combined action of its own weight and the pressure of the brushes above, falls precisely into the brush conveying device. After quantitative feeding is completed, the blocking member 232 quickly rotates in the opposite direction to return to its initial horizontal state, effectively preventing subsequent brushes from falling. This achieves precise control and orderly brush feeding, ensuring a stable feeding quantity each time, improving the automation and accuracy of the feeding process in brush production, laying a good foundation for the efficient and stable operation of subsequent production processes, and helping to improve overall production efficiency and product quality.
[0047] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The brush conveying device includes a first brush conveying device 3 and a second brush conveying device 4. The first brush conveying device 3 is mounted on the support plate 13, and the second brush conveying device 4 is mounted on the first workbench 11. The second brush conveying device 4 is located below the first brush conveying device 3. The two work together to convey an appropriate amount of brushes sequentially between the two metal wires.
[0048] Reference Figure 2The first brush conveying device 3 includes a first rotating disk 31, a first eccentric rod 32, a first motor 33, a second rotating disk 34, a second eccentric rod 35, a connecting rod 36, a sector-shaped rotating disk 37, and a fixed disk 38. The first motor 33 is bolted to the side wall of the support plate 13, and its output shaft passes through the support plate 13 and is rotatably connected to it via a bearing 755. The output shaft is also fixed to the first rotating disk 31 via a key. The first rotating disk 31 has a circular disk-shaped structure, and the first eccentric rod 32 is fixed to the eccentric position of the first rotating disk 31 by welding or threaded connection. The second rotating disk 34 also has a circular disk-shaped structure and is rotatably connected to the support plate 13 via a rotating shaft. The second eccentric rod 35 is fixed to the eccentric position of the second rotating disk 34. One end of the connecting rod 36 is rotatably connected to the first eccentric rod 32 via a pin, and the other end of the connecting rod 36 is rotatably connected to the second eccentric rod 35 via a pin. The fan-shaped turntable 37 is fixed to the second rotating disk 34 by welding or bolting, and the circle of the fan-shaped turntable 37 coincides with the circle of the second rotating disk 34. The fixed disk 38 is fixed to the frame 1 by bolts. The fixed disk 38 has an arc-shaped groove on the side facing the fan-shaped turntable 37. The arc-shaped surface of the fan-shaped turntable 37 and the arc-shaped groove form a feeding channel for conveying brushes. The feeding channel is an arc-shaped channel with open ends. Multiple pusher parts 371 are integrally formed on the arc-shaped surface of the fan-shaped turntable 37 at intervals. The pusher part 371 is an inclined protrusion with a tip facing the winding device 7. The tip slides relative to the arc-shaped groove of the fixed disk 38. A gap is provided between the tip and the arc-shaped groove for a fixed quantity of brushes to pass through. The size of the gap can be adjusted according to the actual number of brushes to be conveyed.
[0049] Continue to refer to Figure 2 Multiple pusher sections 371 are integrally formed on the arc-shaped surface of the fan-shaped turntable 37. Each pusher section 371 is an inclined protrusion with a pointed tip. The pointed tip faces the winding device 7 and slides relative to the arc-shaped groove of the fixing plate. A gap is provided between the pointed tip and the arc-shaped groove for a metering brush to pass through. Because the pusher section 371 is an inclined protrusion with its pointed tip facing the winding device 7, the pointed tip slides relative to the arc-shaped groove of the fixing plate, forming a gap for the metering brush to pass through.
[0050] Reference Figure 2After the first motor 33 starts, its output shaft drives the first rotating disk 31 to rotate. Since the first eccentric rod 32 is fixed at an eccentric position on the first rotating disk 31, the first eccentric rod 32 will perform circular motion accordingly. Through the rotational connection between the connecting rod 36 and the first eccentric rod 32 and the second eccentric rod 35, the rotational motion of the first rotating disk 31 is converted into the reciprocating oscillating motion of the second rotating disk 34. Specifically, when the first eccentric rod 32 rotates with the first rotating disk 31, one end of the connecting rod 36 performs circular motion accordingly, while the other end drives the second eccentric rod 35 and the second rotating disk 34 to reciprocate around the axis. Because the sector-shaped rotating disk 37 is fixed on the second rotating disk 34, the sector-shaped rotating disk 37 will also reciprocate with the second rotating disk 34.
[0051] Continue to refer to Figure 2 The fan-shaped turntable 37 and the arc-shaped groove on the fixed plate 38 cooperate to form a feeding channel. When the fan-shaped turntable 37 rotates clockwise, the inclined protruding structure of the pusher part 371 uses the relative sliding between its tip and the arc-shaped groove to generate a pushing force on the brush located in the feeding channel, pushing the brush towards the winding device 7. Since there is a gap between the tip and the arc-shaped groove, the number of brushes pushed each time can be effectively controlled to ensure that an appropriate number of brushes participate in the subsequent winding process. When the fan-shaped turntable 37 rotates counterclockwise, the tip of the pusher part 371 slides back relative to the arc-shaped groove. At this time, the gap can prevent the unprocessed brushes behind from being accidentally driven due to inertia and other factors, causing conveying chaos, and at the same time prepares for the next clockwise rotation to push the brush.
[0052] Reference Figure 1 The material stop 232 has a clearance groove 234 at one end facing the fixed plate 38, through which the fixed plate 38 passes. The width of the clearance groove 234 is greater than the thickness of the fixed plate 38. When the material stop 232 rotates, the fixed plate 38 and the clearance groove 234 are in clearance fit. By providing a clearance groove 234 at one end of the material stop 232 facing the fixed plate 38, and ensuring a clearance fit between the fixed plate 38 and the clearance groove 234 when the material stop 232 rotates, the structural interference problem that may occur between the material stop 232 and the fixed plate 38 during the rotating unloading process is solved. When the baffle 232 rotates to feed the brush or prevent the brush from falling, the clearance groove 234 provides sufficient space for the fixed plate 38, ensuring that the baffle 232 can complete its rotation smoothly and without obstruction. This ensures that the normal operation of the baffle 232 is not affected by the obstruction of the fixed plate 38, and also ensures the compactness and stability of the overall device structure. In this way, the brush feeding device 2 can accurately and efficiently perform the feeding task, improve the smoothness and reliability of the entire automatic brush production equipment, reduce the equipment failure rate, and improve production efficiency.
[0053] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The second brush conveying device 4 includes a driving rod 41, a driven rod 42, a first support 43, a second support 44, a second motor 45, and at least two feeding mechanisms 46. The first support 43 and the second support 44 are both fixed to the frame 1. Both ends of the driving rod 41 are rotatably connected to the first support 43, and both ends of the driven rod 42 are rotatably connected to the second support 44. The second motor 45 is fixed to the frame 1, and the output shaft of the second motor 45 is connected to the end of the driving rod 41. Each feeding mechanism 46 includes a drive sprocket 461, a chain 462, and a driven sprocket 463. The drive sprocket 461 is sleeved on the drive rod 41 and fixedly connected to the drive rod 41. The driven sprocket 463 is sleeved on the driven rod 42 and fixedly connected to the driven rod 42. The chain 462 is arranged around the drive sprocket 461 and the driven sprocket 463. Multiple feeding rods 464 are spaced apart along the length of the outer side wall of each chain 462.
[0054] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 After the second motor 45 starts, its output shaft drives the drive rod 41 to rotate, which in turn drives the drive sprocket 461 mounted on it to rotate. Since the driven sprocket 463 is fixed to the driven rod 42 and the chain 462 surrounds and connects the drive sprocket 461 and the driven sprocket 463, according to the transmission principle of the sprocket and chain 462, the rotation of the drive sprocket 461 will drive the chain 462 to run smoothly. Multiple feeding rods 464, which are spaced apart along the length of the outer wall of the chain 462, move with the chain 462. When the brush enters the working area of the second brush conveying device 4, the feeding rods 464 can accurately push the brush to be conveyed in a specific direction.
[0055] Continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A limiting rod 39 is fixedly installed on the fixed plate 38. The limiting rod 39 extends horizontally and is located above the top chain 462. A gap is provided between the lower surface of the limiting rod 39 and the upper surface of the chain 462 for brush conveying. The limiting rod 39, which extends horizontally on the fixed plate 38 and is located above the top chain 462, maintains a gap with the upper surface of the chain 462 for brush conveying, playing a crucial role in limiting and guiding the brush during the brush conveying process. When the chain 462 drives the feeding rod 464 to move the brush, the gap between the lower surface of the limiting rod 39 and the upper surface of the chain 462 forms a stable conveying channel, which can effectively constrain the movement trajectory of the brush and prevent the brush from deviating from the predetermined path due to shaking, offset, or flipping during the conveying process. This ensures that the brush is always conveyed smoothly in the correct direction, guaranteeing the accuracy and stability of the brush conveying. At the same time, this gap can also meet the needs of the brush to pass through normally without obstructing the brush conveying, making the entire conveying process smooth and efficient.
[0056] Continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The ground also features a first winding device 10 and a second winding device 15, both with identical structures, each including a base and a winding seat rotatably connected to the base. One metal wire is wound on the first winding device 10, and the other on the second winding device 15, providing raw metal wire for production. The wire guiding device includes a first wire guiding device 8 and a second wire guiding device 9, both mounted on a support plate 13. They are responsible for simultaneously conveying two metal wires to the second brush conveying device 4. The first wire guiding device 8 includes a top wire guiding wheel mechanism 81 and an upper wire guiding wheel mechanism 82. The top wire guiding wheel mechanism 81 is located at the top of the support plate 13, and the upper wire guiding wheel mechanism 82 is located on the side of the support plate 13 near the second conveying device. The second wire guiding device 9 includes a wire guide groove 91 and a lower wire guiding wheel mechanism 92. The wire guide groove 91 is located at one end of the first workbench 11 near the second winding device 15, and the lower wire guiding wheel mechanism 92 is located on the support plate 13, inside the annular chain 462. The top guide wheel mechanism 81, upper guide wheel mechanism 82, and lower guide wheel mechanism 92 each include two guide wheels, each of which is rotatably connected to the support plate 13. By rationally setting the position and structure of the guide devices, such as the top guide wheel mechanism 81 and upper guide wheel mechanism 82 of the first guide device 8, and the guide groove 91 and lower guide wheel mechanism 92 of the second guide device 9, the transmission path of the metal wire can be precisely controlled, so that the metal wire accurately reaches the matching position with the second brush conveying device 4, ensuring that the metal wire and the brush can be accurately connected, and ensuring that the second brush conveying device 4 can accurately convey multiple brushes between two metal wires.
[0057] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The upper surface of the second workbench 12 has a cavity 14, and the winding device 7 is located on the top of the second workbench 12 to clamp one end of two metal wires and drive them to rotate. During the rotation, the two metal wires are wound around each other, fixing multiple brushes between them, and at the same time, the multiple brushes that were originally parallel rotated at different angles in sequence, so that the brushes gradually change from a planar structure to a three-dimensional columnar structure.
[0058] Reference Figure 3 The winding device 7 includes a first sliding seat 71, a first sliding drive mechanism 72, a rotating rod 73, a first rotation drive mechanism 74, and a wire clamping mechanism 75. The first sliding seat 71 is slidably engaged with the frame 1. The first sliding drive mechanism 72 is disposed on the frame 1 and is used to drive the first sliding seat 71 to move along a first direction. The rotating rod 73 is rotatably connected to the first sliding seat 71, and the first rotation drive mechanism 74 is used to drive the rotating rod 73 to rotate. In this embodiment, the specific first rotation drive mechanism 74 is a motor belt mechanism or a motor chain mechanism.
[0059] Continue to refer to Figure 3 The wire clamping mechanism 75 includes a movable sleeve 751, a third cylinder 752, two clamping members 753, and two springs. The two clamping members 753 are located on opposite sides of the rotating rod 73, and the middle of each clamping member 753 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 73. The movable sleeve 751 is sleeved on the rotating rod 73 and slides with the rotating rod 73. The third cylinder 752 is disposed on the first sliding seat 71 and is used to drive the movable sleeve 751 to move axially along the rotating rod 73. An annular drive chamfer 754 is provided on the outer wall of the movable sleeve 751 facing the clamping member 753. Bearings 755 are rotatably provided on the ends of the two clamping members 753 near the movable sleeve 751, and the two bearings 755 abut against the surface of the drive chamfer 754. One end of each spring is connected to the end of the corresponding clamp 753 away from the rotating rod 73, and the other end is connected to the rotating rod 73. The spring is used to provide a restoring force for the clamp 753 when the moving sleeve 751 moves to open the two clamps 753, and to provide an auxiliary clamping force when clamping the metal wire.
[0060] Continue to refer to Figure 3 The first sliding seat 71 slides and engages with the frame 1, and can move flexibly in the first direction under the action of the first sliding drive mechanism 72, facilitating the adjustment of the winding position to adapt to different production needs. The rotating rod 73 is rotatably connected to the first sliding seat 71 and is driven to rotate by the first rotating drive mechanism 74, providing the power basis for the winding action. In the wire clamping mechanism 75, the third cylinder 752 drives the moving sleeve 751 to move axially along the rotating rod 73. Utilizing the abutment action between its annular drive chamfer 754 and the bearing 755 on the clamping member 753, the moving sleeve 751 can drive the two clamping members 753 to rotate around the center when it moves, realizing the action of clamping or releasing the metal wire. The spring can provide a restoring force when the clamping member 753 is opened, allowing it to automatically return to its original position, and can also provide an auxiliary clamping force when clamping the metal wire, enhancing the stability of the clamping. In this embodiment, the first sliding drive mechanism 72 is a motor screw structure.
[0061] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4The trimming device 6 is also mounted on the second workbench 12, located after the winding device 7, and is used to trim the free ends of multiple wound and fixed brushes. The trimming device 6 includes a lifting seat 61, a lifting drive mechanism 62, a second sliding seat 63, a sliding drive mechanism 64, a housing 65, a rotating blade 66, a fixed blade 67, and a second rotating drive mechanism 68. The lifting seat 61 is located within the cavity 14 of the second workbench 12, and the lifting seat 61 slides in conjunction with the frame 1. The lifting drive mechanism 62 is located within the cavity 14 of the second workbench 12 and is used to drive the lifting seat 61 to move up and down. The second sliding seat 63 slides in conjunction with the lifting seat 61, and the sliding drive mechanism 64 is mounted on the lifting seat 61 and is used to drive the second sliding seat 63 to move horizontally. The housing 65 is fixed to the second sliding seat 63, and the rotating blade 66 is rotatably disposed within the housing 65. A second rotating drive mechanism 68 is disposed on the housing 65 and is used to drive the rotating blade 66 to rotate. Specifically, the second rotating drive mechanism 68 can be a motor or a motor gear structure. A fixed blade 67 is fixed to the housing 65, and the rotating blade 66 and the fixed blade 67 cooperate to trim the end of the brush. In this embodiment, both the second sliding drive mechanism and the lifting drive mechanism are motor lead screw structures.
[0062] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5 The cutting device 5 is also set on the second workbench 12, after the trimming device 6. After the brush completes the winding and trimming processes, it cuts the two wound metal wires at the same time, thereby completing the production of a single brush product.
[0063] Reference Figure 5 The cutting device 5 includes a fourth cylinder 51, a gripper cylinder 52, a linkage block 53, and two cutters 54. The fourth cylinder 51 is disposed within the cavity 14 and fixed to the inner wall of the second worktable 12 near the end of the first worktable 11. The piston rod of the fourth cylinder 51 is fixedly connected to the gripper cylinder 52, and the fourth cylinder 51 drives the gripper cylinder 52 to rise and fall. The middle portions of both cutters 54 are rotatably connected to the linkage block 53, and the two grippers of the gripper cylinder 52 are rotatably connected to one end of each of the two cutters 54. The fourth cylinder 51 is fixed on the frame 1, and its piston rod is connected to the gripper cylinder 52. It can drive the gripper cylinder 52 to move as a whole, thereby flexibly adjusting the working position of the cutter 54 to adapt to the cutting requirements of different brush processing scenarios. The two grippers of the gripper cylinder 52 are rotatably connected to one end of the two cutters 54 respectively. When the gripper cylinder 52 is activated, the opening and closing motion of its grippers can drive the two cutters 54 to rotate synchronously around the linkage block 53, so that the cutting edges of the cutters 54 approach or separate from each other. When they approach each other, a shearing force is generated, which can quickly and cleanly cut the metal wires wrapped on the brush.
[0064] The implementation principle of the above embodiment is as follows: one end of the metal wire is driven by the above-mentioned devices to rotate the other end of the two metal wires in a coordinated manner. During the rotation, the brush is wound around the two metal wires. The multiple brushes between the two metal wires are fixed in the fully automatic production process from material feeding to finished product. The brush feeding device 2 precisely controls the sequential rotation of multiple originally parallel brushes at different angles and quantitative feeding. The brush feeding device accurately transmits multiple brushes from a planar structure to a designated position and gradually transforms them into a three-dimensional column-like structure. The two trimming devices 6 are used to guide the metal wire to the designated position after winding and fixing. The wire trimming device trims the free ends of multiple brushes. The cutting device 5 is located after the trimming device 6 and is used to change the brush structure after winding and fixing, trimming, etc. After the process, the trimming device 6 cuts off the two finely processed wires at the ends of the brushes. The finally cut wire of the winding metal is completed by the cutting device 5 to complete the production of a single brush product. The entire product manufacturing process achieves a high degree of automation by integrating multiple devices and processes, eliminating the need for extensive manual intervention. This significantly improves the system, increases production efficiency, and reduces labor costs. The following section addresses the labor costs of this application.
[0065] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
