Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of fabric storage and transportation technology, and in particular to a fabric loading device for the textile industry. Background Technology
[0002] Fabric loading devices in textile manufacturing are crucial equipment for carrying and transporting fabric rolls during the weaving process. Their core function is to efficiently and smoothly transfer greige or finished fabric rolls to subsequent processing positions such as looms and inspection machines, ensuring the continuity of the production process. Traditional devices typically employ fixed supports or trolley structures, using manual or simple mechanical drives to lift and move individual fabric rolls. In textile workshops, operators must manually push the fabric roll into the support slot for positioning and then adjust the height to match the equipment's inlet. This design is simple, inexpensive, and can accommodate the weight and size requirements of conventional fabric rolls, maintaining basic operational efficiency in single-variety, small-batch production. However, the single-roll operation mode of traditional fabric loading devices reveals significant efficiency bottlenecks in multi-batch continuous production scenarios. When multiple fabric rolls need to be processed simultaneously, operators must repeatedly perform loading, unloading, arranging, and positioning operations, resulting in high labor intensity and the risk of entanglement or slippage due to fabric roll stacking. While temporary auxiliary supports can temporarily store fabric rolls, they further increase the difficulty of adjustment and operation. Therefore, the field of fabric storage and transportation technology needs to propose a textile loading device that can more conveniently and efficiently load and unload fabric rolls. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In view of the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention provides a fabric feeding device for the textile industry, and the main technical problem to be solved is how to more conveniently and efficiently load and unload fabric rolls on the fabric feeding device.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this invention is implemented as follows: A fabric feeding device for textile industry includes a support frame, a storage rack, a feeding mechanism, and a discharging mechanism. Several storage racks are fixedly connected to the support frame. The feeding mechanism and the discharging mechanism are respectively located on the front and rear sides of the storage racks. The feeding mechanism includes a first drive motor, a first sprocket set, a first chain, and a first transport plate. The first drive motor drives the first chain to move through the first sprocket set. The first transport plate is connected to the first chain, and the first chain can drive the first transport plate to move longitudinally. The side of the storage rack closer to the feeding mechanism is higher than the side farther away from the feeding mechanism. The bottom of the support frame is provided with casters.
[0005] Preferably, the storage rack is provided with an electrically controlled telescopic protrusion on the side near the unloading mechanism, and a first roller and a second roller are provided below the electrically controlled telescopic protrusion. The first roller and the second roller are symmetrically arranged below the electrically controlled telescopic protrusion, and an electrically controlled telescopic baffle is provided on one side of the second roller.
[0006] Preferably, both the first roller and the second roller are connected to the support frame. A rotating groove is provided at the connection between the second roller and the support frame. A forward and reverse motor is provided inside the rotating groove, and the forward and reverse motor can control the second roller to move within the rotating groove.
[0007] Preferably, the rotating groove is configured as an arc-shaped structure with the first roller as the center.
[0008] Preferably, a rolling motor is provided inside the support frame, which can drive the first roller and the second roller to rotate.
[0009] Preferably, the support frame is provided with a first slide rail on the side near the first transport plate, the first transport plate is connected to the support frame through the first slide rail, the first transport plate is provided with a first right-angled trapezoidal slot in the middle, and a first slot is provided in the middle of the first right-angled trapezoidal slot.
[0010] Preferably, the storage rack is provided with a plurality of limiting mechanisms in the middle, each limiting mechanism including a connecting seat and a rotating rod, the connecting seat being rotatably connected to the rotating rod.
[0011] Preferably, the feeding mechanism includes a second drive motor, a second sprocket assembly, a second chain, and a second transport plate. The second drive motor drives the second chain to move through the second sprocket assembly. The second transport plate is connected to the second chain, and the second chain can drive the second transport plate to move longitudinally.
[0012] Preferably, the support frame is provided with a second slide rail on the side near the second transport plate, the second transport plate is connected to the support frame through the second slide rail, the second transport plate is provided with a second right-angled trapezoidal slot in the middle, and a second slot is provided in the middle of the second right-angled trapezoidal slot.
[0013] Preferably, an electric telescopic rod is provided above the second right-angled trapezoidal slot, and the electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the support frame.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By setting up the loading and unloading mechanisms, the device drives the first sprocket assembly and the first chain through the first drive mechanism, thereby driving the first transport plate to move up and down. This allows the operator to load the fabric roll onto the first transport plate at a lower position, and the up-and-down movement of the transport plate transports the fabric roll to the same height as the storage rack. This allows the operator to conveniently transfer the fabric roll to the top of the storage rack. Simultaneously, the storage rack is positioned so that the side closer to the loading mechanism is higher than the side farther away, allowing the fabric roll to naturally roll towards the side closer to the unloading mechanism after reaching the top of the storage rack, facilitating storage and unloading by the operator. Furthermore, the support frame is equipped with casters at the bottom, enabling the device to be easily moved, making the transfer of fabric rolls more convenient.
[0015] In summary, this device, through the feeding mechanism, unloading mechanism, storage rack, and casters, enables more convenient and efficient loading and unloading of fabric rolls on the fabric feeding device. Attached Figure Description

[0019] Example 1 See attached document Figure 1-4This application provides a fabric feeding device for textile industry, including a support frame 1, a storage rack 2, a feeding mechanism 3, and a discharging mechanism 4. Several storage racks 2 are fixedly connected to the support frame 1. The feeding mechanism 3 and the discharging mechanism 4 are respectively arranged on the front and rear sides of the storage racks 2. The feeding mechanism 3 includes a first drive motor 301, a first sprocket set 302, a first chain 303, and a first transport plate 304. The first drive motor 301 drives the first chain 303 to move through the first sprocket set 302. The first transport plate 304 is connected to the first chain 303. The first chain 303 can drive the first transport plate 304 to move longitudinally. The side of the storage rack 2 closer to the feeding mechanism 3 is higher than the side farther away from the feeding mechanism 3. The bottom of the support frame 1 is provided with casters 5. The unloading mechanism 4 is also symmetrically arranged on both sides of the support frame 1. This device, through the loading mechanism 3 and the unloading mechanism 4, drives the first sprocket group 302 and the first chain 303 via the first drive mechanism, which in turn drives the first transport plate 304 to move up and down. This allows the operator to load the fabric roll 7 onto the first transport plate 304 at a lower position. The up-and-down movement of the first transport plate 304 transports the fabric roll 7 to the same height as the storage rack 2. The operator can then push the fabric roll 7 into the storage rack 2. The storage rack 2 is designed so that the side closer to the loading mechanism 3 is higher than the side farther from it, allowing the fabric roll 7 to naturally roll towards the side closer to the unloading mechanism 4 after reaching the top of the storage rack 2. This facilitates storage and unloading by the operator. The operator can control the placement direction of the fabric roll 7 to prevent it from unraveling during rolling. Additionally, the support frame 1 is equipped with casters 5 at the bottom, making the device easy to move and transferring the fabric roll 7 more convenient. In summary, this device, through the feeding mechanism 3, the unloading mechanism 4, the storage rack 2, and the casters 5, enables more convenient and efficient loading and unloading of fabric rolls 7 on the fabric feeding device.
[0020] Specifically, the storage rack 2 is provided with an electrically controlled telescopic protrusion 201 on the side near the unloading mechanism 4. A first roller 202 and a second roller 203 are provided below the electrically controlled telescopic protrusion 201. The first roller 202 and the second roller 203 are symmetrically arranged below the electrically controlled telescopic protrusion 201. An electrically controlled telescopic baffle 204 is provided on one side of the second roller 203. This device, by setting up an electrically controlled telescopic protrusion 201, a first roller 202, and a second roller 203, allows the fabric roll 7 to roll along the storage rack 2 to the side near the unloading mechanism 4. When it is stopped by the electrically controlled telescopic baffle 204, it stops between the first roller 202 and the second roller 203. At this time, the electrically controlled telescopic protrusion 201 extends into the round tube 8 in the middle of the fabric roll 7 to limit its movement, thus fixing the fabric roll 7 at the lower end of the storage rack 2. When unloading is required, the electrically controlled telescopic protrusion 201 and the electrically controlled telescopic baffle 204 retract, allowing the fabric roll 7 to be transported to the subsequent mechanism for fabric loading under the operation of the unloading mechanism 4.
[0021] Specifically, both the first roller 202 and the second roller 203 are connected to the support frame 1. A rotating groove 208 is provided at the connection between the second roller 203 and the support frame 1. A forward and reverse motor 205 is provided inside the rotating groove 208, which can control the movement of the second roller 203 within the rotating groove 208. By providing the rotating groove 208, this device enables the forward and reverse motor 205 to control the downward movement of the second roller 203. Simultaneously, with the retraction of the electrically controlled telescopic protrusion 201 and the electrically controlled telescopic baffle 204, the fabric roll 7 can be smoothly transferred to the unloading mechanism 4.
[0022] Specifically, the rotating groove 208 is configured as an arc-shaped structure with the first roller 202 as the center, so that the distance between the first roller 202 and the second roller 203 remains constant, avoiding the change in distance caused by the rotation of the second roller 203, so that the circular tube 8 in the middle of the cloth roll 7 cannot be reliably fixed and transferred.
[0023] Specifically, a rolling motor 206 is provided inside the support frame 1, which can drive the first roller 202 and the second roller 203 to rotate. This device, by providing the rolling motor 206, allows the first roller 202 and the second roller 203 to rotate in coordination with the downward movement of the second roller 203, thereby driving the fabric roll 7 to rotate and disengage from the first roller 202 and the second roller 203 to enter the feeding mechanism 4. The forward and reverse reversing motor 205 is located on the back side of the rolling motor 206 corresponding to the first roller 202. The rotating shaft of the forward and reverse reversing motor 205 is fixedly connected to the rolling motor 206 corresponding to the second roller 203 via a connecting rod 207, allowing the forward and reverse reversing motor 205 to drive the rolling motor 206 and the second roller 203 to move along the rotating groove 208.
[0024] Specifically, a first slide rail 305 is provided on the side of the support frame 1 near the first transport plate 304. The first transport plate 304 is connected to the support frame 1 through the first slide rail 305. A first right-angled trapezoidal slot 306 is provided in the middle of the first right-angled trapezoidal slot 306, and a first locking slot 307 is provided in the middle of the first right-angled trapezoidal slot 306. The first slide rails 305 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the support frame 1. By setting the first slide rails 305, this device makes the up-and-down sliding process of the first transport plate 304 more stable. At the same time, the first right-angled trapezoidal slot 306 and the first locking slot 307 are provided to make the round tube 8 in the middle of the fabric roll 7 more firmly placed on the first locking slot 307, avoiding shaking and falling when lifting or lowering.
[0025] Specifically, the storage rack 2 is provided with several limiting mechanisms 6 in the middle. Each limiting mechanism 6 includes a connecting seat 601 and a rotating rod 602, which are rotatably connected. By setting the limiting mechanisms 6, the operator can control the limiting mechanisms 6 to close by adjusting the rotating rod 602, thereby blocking and limiting the fabric roll 7, or adjust the rotating rod 602 to open the limiting mechanisms 6, thereby allowing the fabric roll 7 to roll along the storage rack 2. By setting the limiting mechanisms 6, the operator can store and arrange the fabric roll 7 more conveniently, and at the same time, the force between the different limiting mechanisms 6 and the blocking parts can be distributed, making the inclined storage rack 2 safer and more reliable for storage or transportation.
[0026] Example 2 See attached document Figure 5-7 The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the feeding mechanism 4 includes a second drive motor 401, a second sprocket set 402, a second chain 403, and a second transport plate 404. The second drive motor 401 drives the second chain 403 to move through the second sprocket set 402. The second transport plate 404 is connected to the second chain 403, and the second chain 403 can drive the second transport plate 404 to move longitudinally. This device, by setting up the second drive motor 401, the second sprocket set 402, and the second transport plate 404, allows the second drive motor 401 to drive the second transport plate 404 to move up and down through the second sprocket set 402 and the second chain 403. The second transport plate 404 can approach the storage rack 2 to unload the fabric roll 7 and raise the fabric roll 7 to the upper fabric opening height of the textile machinery for loading.
[0027] Specifically, a second slide rail 405 is provided on the side of the support frame 1 near the second transport plate 404. The second transport plate 404 is connected to the support frame 1 through the second slide rail 405. A second right-angled trapezoidal slot 406 is provided in the middle of the second transport plate 404, and a second slot 407 is provided in the middle of the second right-angled trapezoidal slot 406. The second slide rail 405 is also symmetrically arranged on both sides of the support frame 1. By setting the second slide rail 405, this device makes the up-and-down sliding process of the second transport plate 404 more stable. At the same time, the second right-angled trapezoidal slot 406 and the second slot 407 are provided to make the round tube 8 in the middle of the fabric roll 7 more firmly placed on the second slot 407, avoiding shaking and falling when lifting or lowering.
[0028] Specifically, an electric telescopic rod 408 is provided above the second right-angled trapezoidal slot 406, and the electric telescopic rod 408 is fixedly connected to the support frame 1. In this embodiment, the second right-angled trapezoidal slot 406 is configured as a V-shaped structure with both ends higher than the middle, which further improves the stability of transporting the fabric roll 7. The electric telescopic rod 408 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the support frame 1 and is set at the same height as the upper fabric opening of the textile machinery. By setting the electric telescopic rod 408, when the second transport plate 404 is raised to the height of the upper fabric opening of the textile machinery, the electric telescopic rod 408 can push the fabric roll 7 into the upper fabric opening of the textile machinery. The operator can also set a simple structure such as a guide rail or bracket similar in shape and size to the storage rack 2 at the upper fabric opening of the textile machinery to connect with the second transport plate 404 to receive the fabric roll 7, assist the fabric roll 7 in entering the upper fabric opening, and improve the reliability of the device.
[0029] The above are merely specific embodiments of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the scope of the claims.
