Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automatic printing equipment, in particular to an automatic printing equipment for liquid Lycra used in body shaping clothing. Background Art
[0002] Liquid Lycra is currently primarily used in body-shaping apparel, particularly in the support areas of these garments. The amount of glue applied to the garment piece qualitatively and quantitatively determines the plasticity or support provided by the shapewear. Traditionally, there are two main liquid Lycra printing technologies: manual printing and elliptical machine printing. Manual printing has no quantity restrictions but is inefficient, while elliptical machine printing requires high production line order volumes. Both traditional printing methods require the production of a nylon stencil on which the printed pattern is engraved, making it difficult to accurately control the amount of glue applied. Therefore, an automated liquid Lycra printing system for body-shaping apparel was proposed.
[0003] To better shape the body, precise adjustments should be made. For example, the pressure on the buttocks should be reduced to allow for easier release of the buttocks' flesh. For the abdomen, the pressure on the lower abdomen should be increased to achieve a more tummy-tightening effect. Varying the density of the printed pattern provides light support, varying it in thickness or fineness, density or sparseness, intermittent or continuous, thus achieving a balance between precise shaping and comfortable wearing. Therefore, liquid Lycra printing has strict requirements for gluing uniformity and coarseness, density and sparseness. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In response to the above problems, an automatic liquid Lycra printing equipment for body shaping clothing is provided. The roller is driven to move synchronously by the rubber hose, so that the bottom of the roller and the surface of the fabric roll due to friction. While the roller rolls, the material in the rubber hose will adhere to the surface of the roller. The rolling of the roller will bring out the material in the rubber hose and coat it on the surface of the fabric, thereby achieving uniform blanking and coarse and fine density requirements.
[0005] To solve the problems of the prior art, the present invention provides an automatic printing device for liquid Lycra for body shaping clothing, comprising a three-dimensional movable machine tool, a mounting mechanism disposed at a working end of the three-dimensional movable machine tool, a feeding mechanism disposed on the mounting mechanism, a buffer mechanism disposed at the bottom of the feeding mechanism, and a glue feeding mechanism disposed on the buffer mechanism, wherein the feeding mechanism comprises a material storage barrel longitudinally mounted inside the mounting mechanism, and a discharge nozzle longitudinally fixed to the bottom end of the material storage barrel capable of communicating with the interior thereof; The glue feeding mechanism includes a glue feeding hose and a servo motor longitudinally fixed to the bottom of the buffer mechanism, an elastic feeding pipe is installed at the top of the glue feeding hose, and the top of the elastic feeding pipe is connected to the bottom end of the feeding nozzle; The bottom of the rubber feeding pipe is provided with a first spherical arc groove and a plurality of rubber feeding grooves located on the wall of the first spherical arc groove and distributed circumferentially, and a roller is installed inside the first spherical arc groove; The bottom end of the hose is provided with a threaded sleeve, and the outer wall of the top of the threaded sleeve is provided with tooth grooves equidistantly around its central axis. The threaded sleeve is matched with the thread of the hose, and the interior of the threaded sleeve is provided with a second spherical arc groove that can adapt to the roller; A gear that can mesh with the tooth groove is fixed to the output end of the servo motor.
[0006] Preferably, the buffer mechanism includes a floating plate for mounting the rubber feeding hose; a fixing sleeve is sheathed on the outside of the rubber feeding hose, and the top of the fixing sleeve is fixed to the bottom surface of the floating plate.
[0007] Preferably, the mounting mechanism includes a movable frame mounted on the working end of the three-dimensional movable machine tool; a first fixed frame is mounted on one side of the movable frame; and the storage barrel is mounted between the movable frame and the first fixed frame.
[0008] Preferably, the limiting sleeves are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the movable frame, and the limiting sleeves are respectively fixed on the top and bottom of the side of the movable frame, and a pressure sensor is fixed on the lower end surface of the limiting sleeve near the top of the movable frame; sliding rods are longitudinally fixed on both sides of the floating plate, and the sliding rods are arranged in the limiting sleeves and can move along the central axis of the limiting sleeves.
[0009] Preferably, a limiting block for limiting position is fixed on the slide bar; a return spring is provided on the top of the limiting block, the return spring is sleeved on the slide bar, and the top of the return spring contacts the bottom of the pressure sensor.
[0010] Preferably, the servo motor is fixedly mounted on the rubber supply hose or on the bottom of the floating plate.
[0011] Preferably, a heating mechanism is provided in the storage barrel.
[0012] Preferably, a feed pipe that can be connected to an external feeding pipe is fixed on the top of the storage barrel; a pressure detection sensor is installed on the side of the top of the storage barrel near the feed pipe, and the working end of the pressure detection sensor can extend into the storage barrel and monitor the pressure inside the storage barrel in real time.
[0013] Preferably, a constant pressure pump for stabilizing the internal pressure of the material storage barrel is fixed on the top of the material storage barrel, and the output end of the constant pressure pump is connected to the inside of the material storage barrel.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. This application uses a feed hose to drive a roller to move synchronously, causing the bottom of the roller to roll with the surface of the fabric through friction. As the roller rolls, the material in the feed hose adheres to the roller surface. The rolling of the roller brings the material out of the feed hose and spreads it on the fabric surface, achieving uniform material delivery.
[0015] 2. This application utilizes a servo motor, through a gear at its output end, to drive the meshing tooth groove clockwise or counterclockwise. This rotation simultaneously drives the threaded sleeve to move longitudinally along the central axis of the rubber feed hose, thereby adjusting the spatial distance between the roller and the first and second spherical arc grooves. The varying widths of the gap between the roller and the second spherical arc groove are used to vary the amount of glue delivered at the same speed, adjusting the coarseness of the liquid Lycra glue. Combined with controlled three-dimensional motion, this achieves sparse and dense distribution and intermittent or continuous lines. After the rubber feed hose rises, the roller's own weight blocks the second spherical arc groove, preventing material leakage.
[0016] 3. This application fixes the sliding rod longitudinally on both sides of the floating plate, and then installs the sliding rod in the limit sleeve. When the floating plate moves longitudinally, the floating plate will drive the sliding rod to slide along the limit sleeve, so that the limit sleeve and the sliding rod cooperate with each other to limit the floating plate, thereby ensuring the stability of the floating plate during movement.

[0026] In order to further understand the features, technical means, specific objectives and functions achieved by the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0027] See also Figures 1-8 As shown, an automatic printing device for liquid lycra for body shaping clothing includes a three-dimensional movable machine tool 1, a mounting mechanism 2 arranged at the working end of the three-dimensional movable machine tool 1, a feeding mechanism 3 arranged on the mounting mechanism 2, a buffer mechanism 5 arranged at the bottom of the feeding mechanism 3 and a glue feeding mechanism 6 arranged on the buffer mechanism 5. The feeding mechanism 3 includes a storage barrel 31 longitudinally mounted inside the mounting mechanism 2, a discharge nozzle 311 that can be connected to the interior of the storage barrel 31 is longitudinally fixed to the bottom end of the storage barrel 31, and a heating mechanism is provided in the storage barrel 31. The heating mechanism is conventional technology and is not described here.
[0028] The glue feeding mechanism 6 includes a glue feeding tube 61 longitudinally fixed to the bottom of the buffer mechanism 5. An elastic feeding tube 511 is mounted on the top of the glue feeding tube 61, and the top of the elastic feeding tube 511 is connected to the bottom of the discharge nozzle 311. The bottom of the glue feeding tube 61 is provided with a first spherical arc groove 611 and a plurality of glue feeding grooves located on the wall of the first spherical arc groove 611 and distributed circumferentially. A roller 612 is mounted inside the first spherical arc groove 611. A threaded sleeve 62 is mounted on the bottom end of the glue feeding tube 61. The outer wall of the top end of the threaded sleeve 62 is provided with tooth grooves 622 equidistantly around its central axis. The threaded sleeve 62 is threadedly engaged with the glue feeding tube 61. A second spherical arc groove 621 is provided inside the threaded sleeve 62, which is adapted to fit the roller 612.
[0029] A servo motor 7 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the rubber feeding hose 61, and a gear 71 capable of meshing with the tooth groove 622 is fixed on the output end of the servo motor 7. In other examples, the servo motor 7 can also be fixedly mounted on the bottom of the floating plate 51.
[0030] A first spherical arc groove 611 is formed at the bottom end of the feed hose 61, and a roller 612 is installed within the first spherical arc groove 611. A second spherical arc groove 621 is formed inside the threaded sleeve 62 to mate with the surface of the roller 612, and the bottom of the roller 612 protrudes downward from the bottom of the threaded sleeve 62. When the buffer mechanism 5 drives the feed hose 61 downward, the bottom of the roller 612 contacts the surface of the fabric. When the feed hose 61 moves horizontally, the feed hose 61 drives the roller 612 to move synchronously, causing the bottom of the roller 612 to roll with the fabric surface through friction. As the roller 612 rolls, the material in the feed hose 61 adheres to the surface of the roller 612. The rolling of the roller 612 draws the material out of the feed hose 61 and spreads it onto the fabric surface, achieving uniform material discharge.
[0031] The heating mechanism keeps the liquid lycra within the storage barrel 31, discharge nozzle 311, and supply hose 61 in a fluid state, effectively preventing solidification and blockage. The servo motor 7 is activated, and the gear 71 at its output drives the meshing tooth groove 622 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. This rotation of the tooth groove 622 simultaneously moves the threaded sleeve 62 longitudinally along the central axis of the supply hose 61, thereby adjusting the distance between the roller 612 and the first and second spherical arc grooves 611 and 621. The varying widths of the gap between the roller 612 and the second spherical arc groove 621 are used to adjust the amount of glue being dispensed at the same speed, thereby adjusting the coarseness of the liquid lycra. Combined with controlled three-dimensional motion, this allows for sparse and dense distribution and intermittent or continuous lines. After the supply hose 61 rises, the roller 612's own weight blocks the second spherical arc groove 621, preventing leakage.
[0032] See also Figure 6 As shown, the buffer mechanism 5 includes a floating plate 51 for mounting the rubber feeding hose 61 . A fixing sleeve 512 is sleeved on the outside of the rubber feeding hose 61 , and the top of the fixing sleeve 512 is fixed to the bottom surface of the floating plate 51 .
[0033] To ensure a stable connection between the floating plate 51 and the rubber supply hose 61, a fixing sleeve 512 is fixedly mounted on the outside of the rubber supply hose 61, and the top of the fixing sleeve 512 is welded to the lower end surface of the floating plate 51. The rubber supply hose 61 is fixed to the floating plate 51 via the fixing sleeve 512, thereby ensuring a stable connection between the floating plate 51 and the rubber supply hose 61.
[0034] See also Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the mounting mechanism 2 includes a mobile frame 21 mounted on the working end of the three-dimensional mobile machine tool 1; a first fixed frame 22 is welded to one side of the mobile frame 21; and a storage barrel 31 is mounted between the mobile frame 21 and the first fixed frame 22.
[0035] By mounting the mobile frame 21 at the working end of the three-dimensional mobile machine tool 1, the three-dimensional mobile machine tool 1 can drive the mobile frame 21 to move along the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis. The drive mechanisms for the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis are conventional and will not be described in detail here. Preferably, the drive mechanism is a motor-screw module. By mounting a first fixed frame 22 on one side of the mobile frame 21, the first fixed frame 22 and the mobile frame 21 cooperate to secure the material storage barrel 31, thereby ensuring the stability of the material storage barrel 31.
[0036] See also Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, limiting sleeves 211 are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the movable frame 21, and the limiting sleeves 211 are respectively fixed on the top and bottom of the side of the movable frame 21, and a pressure sensor 212 is fixed on the lower end surface of the limiting sleeve 211 near the top of the movable frame 21; sliding rods 52 are longitudinally fixed on both sides of the floating plate 51, and the sliding rods 52 are arranged in the limiting sleeve 211 and can move along the central axis of the limiting sleeve 211.
[0037] To ensure the stability of the floating plate 51, sliding rods 52 are installed longitudinally on both sides of the floating plate 51 and assembled within the limiting sleeve 211. As the floating plate 51 moves longitudinally, the sliding rods 52 slide synchronously with the floating plate 51 along the inner wall of the limiting sleeve 211. The limiting sleeve 211 and the sliding rods 52 cooperate to limit the position of the floating plate 51, thereby ensuring the stability of the floating plate 51 during movement.
[0038] See also Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a limit block 522 for limiting is fixed on the slide bar 52; a return spring 521 is provided on the top of the limit block 522, and the return spring 521 is sleeved on the slide bar 52, and the top of the return spring 521 contacts the bottom of the pressure sensor 212.
[0039] As the slide bar 52 moves upward, the stopper 522 fixed to the slide bar 52 compresses the return spring 521, causing it to gradually accumulate elastic potential energy. As the accumulated elastic potential energy of the return spring 521 continues to increase, the pressure exerted by the return spring 521 on the pressure sensor 212 also increases accordingly. When the pressure sensor 212 detects that the pressure exceeds a preset value, the longitudinal movement of the three-dimensional movable machine tool 1 will immediately stop.
[0040] See also Figure 3As shown, a feed pipe 32, which can be connected to an external feeding pipe, is fixed to the top of the storage barrel 31. A pressure detection sensor 33 is installed on the top of the storage barrel 31, next to the feed pipe 32. The working end of the pressure detection sensor 33 can extend into the storage barrel 31 and monitor the pressure inside the storage barrel 31 in real time. By fixing the pressure detection sensor 33 on the top of the storage barrel 31 and extending the working end of the pressure detection sensor 33 into the storage barrel 31, the pressure detection sensor 33 can monitor the pressure inside the storage barrel 31 in real time.
[0041] See also Figure 3 As shown, a constant pressure pump 34 for stabilizing the internal pressure of the material storage barrel 31 is fixed on the top of the material storage barrel 31 , and the output end of the constant pressure pump 34 is connected to the interior of the material storage barrel 31 .
[0042] By installing a constant-pressure pump 34 on top of the storage barrel 31, when the pressure sensor 33 detects that the pressure inside the storage barrel 31 is higher or lower than a preset value, the constant-pressure pump 34 is activated to release or increase pressure inside the storage barrel 31. This effectively ensures that the pressure inside the storage barrel 31 is always maintained within the preset range, avoiding problems such as excessively high pressure causing excessively rapid discharge, or excessively low pressure causing slow discharge. This ensures stable feeding from the feeding mechanism 3.
[0043] The above embodiments merely represent one or more embodiments of the present invention, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art may make various modifications and improvements without departing from the scope of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the appended claims.
