Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of circular fabric shaping technology, and more particularly to a shaping device for processing circular fabrics. Background Technology

[0002] Circular fabrics are closed loop fabrics, commonly including circular webbing, circular elastic fabric, and circular knitted fabric. They are widely used in conveyor belts, transmission belts, circular filters, and circular accessories in clothing. Due to the internal stress present after weaving, irregular loops, uneven tension, and unstable dimensions are prone to occur. Therefore, circular fabrics require a setting process during processing. Setting can eliminate internal stress, maintain accurate and uniform dimensions, ensure stable loop shape, and improve the fabric's structural density and shape retention, meeting the requirements for dimensional accuracy and shape stability in subsequent processing and practical applications.

[0003] Most existing fabric setting devices are designed for non-circular fabrics and lack a dedicated adapter structure for setting circular fabrics. Because circular fabrics have an inherent closed and seamless structure, they are incompatible with the linear feeding and single-processing mode of traditional setting devices. This makes it impossible to achieve continuous cyclic setting operations. In actual processing, the circular fabric needs to be disassembled into segments, set, and then spliced ​​back to restore the circular shape, or the complete circular fabric needs to be repeatedly fed into the device for segment-by-segment processing. This not only makes the process cumbersome but also easily damages the integrity of the circular shape of the fabric due to repeated operations, significantly reducing the setting efficiency and the consistency of the finished product. It is also inflexible and not very practical. Summary of the Invention

[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the described embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0035] Please refer to Figures 1 to 9 Example 1:

[0036] This invention proposes a shaping device for processing circular fabrics, comprising: a mounting frame 1 and a shaping mechanism 2. The shaping mechanism 2 includes a shaping roller 201 and a self-rotating motor 202. The shaping roller 201 is rotatably connected to the top of the mounting frame 1, and the self-rotating motor 202 is fixedly mounted on the back side of the mounting frame 1. The self-rotating motor 202 and the shaping roller 201 are connected by a transmission. The device also includes a circulation component, which consists of a drive mechanism 3 and an adapter mechanism 4.

[0037] The driving mechanism 3 includes a driving motor 301 and a driving roller 302. The driving motor 301 is fixedly installed on the back side of the mounting frame 1, and the driving roller 302 is rotatably connected to the side side of the mounting frame 1. The driving motor 301 and the driving roller 302 are connected by transmission. The adapter mechanism 4 includes a track slider 401, a positioning motor 402, a positioning rod 403, a side support roller 404, an adapter seat 405, and an inner support roller 406. The track slider 401 is inserted into the inside of the mounting frame 1, and the positioning motor 402 is fixedly installed on the side side of the mounting frame 1. The positioning rod 403 is rotatably connected to the inside of the mounting frame 1, and the positioning rod 403 and the positioning motor 402 are connected by transmission. The side support roller 404 is rotatably connected to the side of the track slider 401, and the adapter seat 405 is inserted into the inside of the track slider 401. The inner support roller 406 is rotatably connected to the side of the adapter seat 405.

[0038] The setting roller 201 is a common component in the textile industry used for heating and setting fabrics. Its specific structure and working principle are existing mature technologies and will not be elaborated here.

[0039] The adapter mechanism 4 is provided in two sets, and the two sets of adapter mechanisms 4 are symmetrically intertwined. The two sets of adapter mechanisms 4 form an adapter module. The number of adapter modules can be increased or decreased as needed.

[0040] In this configuration, the shaping roller 201, the inner support roller 406, and the drive roller 302 are aligned on the same vertical line, and their rotation axes are parallel. During use, when the circulation assembly is in its initial state, the shaping roller 201, drive roller 302, and inner support roller 406 are aligned on the same vertical line. This allows the annular fabric to be directly fitted onto the outside of the shaping roller 201, drive roller 302, and inner support roller 406, thus enabling the fabric installation operation. Convenient and quick, the loop assembly can automatically tension the circular fabric in preparation for subsequent shaping operations. Under the action of the pressure spring 4052, the contact switch 4053 is pressed against the inner wall of the track groove 4011, thereby putting the forward rotation control circuit of the positioning motor 402 into a ready-to-control effective state (that is, when the forward rotation control circuit of the positioning motor 402 is activated by an external control device, the positioning motor 402 can rotate forward). The positioning motor 402 can then drive the track slider 401 to move, realizing the circular... In the tensioning operation of the shaped fabric, the positioning rod 403 has a thread on its outer surface and is screwed into the inside of the track slider 401 through the thread. The rod of the positioning rod 403 passes through the inside of the adapter seat 405. When the positioning motor 402 rotates, it can drive the positioning rod 403 to rotate synchronously. When the positioning rod 403 rotates, it can drive the track slider 401 to move through the thread. When the track slider 401 moves, it can drive the side support roller 404 and the inner support roller 406 to move synchronously. Thus, under the action of the two sets of adapter mechanisms 4, the inner and outer rings of the annular fabric can be stretched and tensioned. The inner support roller 406 can perform the stretching action from the inside of the annular fabric, and the side support roller 404 can perform the limiting action from the outside of the annular fabric, thereby ensuring that the annular fabric is stably stretched and that there is no sticking or contact between the two sides of the annular fabric. Afterwards, the annular fabric can achieve the operation of cyclic movement and shaping under the rotation of the shaping roller 201 and the drive roller 302. It is convenient and flexible to use, and the shaping process is fast and efficient.

[0041] The distance between the side support roller 404 and the inner support roller 406 is smaller than the diameter of the shaping roller 201. This design allows the annular fabric to be bonded to the outside of the shaping roller 201 for shaping operations with maximum length, thus improving shaping efficiency and quality.

[0042] The adapter 405 has a T-shaped track block 4051 on its side, and the track slider 401 has a track groove 4011 inside. The track block 4051 is inserted into the track groove 4011. In use, the track block 4051 can restrict the movement trajectory of the adapter 405 inside the track slider 401 through the track groove 4011, so that the adapter 405 will not be tilted or twisted during movement, which would cause the device to jam and fail, and the use is stable.

[0043] The track block 4051 has a pressure spring 4052 on its side, with both ends of the pressure spring 4052 abutting against the side of the track block 4051 and the inside of the track slider 401, respectively. During use, the adapter mechanism 4 automatically adapts to the length of the annular fabric, allowing the circulation component to adaptively tension the annular fabric when assembling different specifications of annular fabric. This ensures sufficient tension without causing breakage or damage to the annular fabric, resulting in stable operation. The track block 4051 also has a contact switch 4053 on its side, which, when the pressure spring 4052 is in operation... When the contact switch 4053 is pressed against the inner wall of the track groove 4011, the contact switch 4053 is located in the control circuit of the positioning motor 402 for forward rotation. When the contact switch 4053 is pressed against the track groove 4011, the control circuit is in a standby active state, and when the contact switch 4053 is not pressed against the track groove 4011, the control circuit is in a standby inactive state. When the adapter mechanism 4 tensions the annular fabric, the annular fabric is folded to reduce the distance between the top and bottom ends of the annular fabric until the top and bottom ends of the annular fabric respectively abut against the outside of the shaping roller 201 and the drive roller 302. After that, the adapter mechanism... 4. During the continued tensioning action, the tension force gradually increases due to the length of the loop fabric and acts on the inner support roller 406. When the tension force is small, the force acting on the inner support roller 406 is less than the elastic force of the pressure spring 4052. At this time, the contact switch 4053 is pressed against the inner wall of the track groove 4011, causing the forward rotation control circuit of the positioning motor 402 to be in a ready-to-control effective state and continue to rotate forward to perform the tensioning action of the adapter mechanism 4. When the tension force is greater than the required force, the force acting on the inner support roller 406 is greater than the elastic force of the pressure spring 4052, thereby... The adapter 405 will move to one side to buffer and avoid the tensioning action and compress the pressure spring 4052. During this process, the contact switch 4053 loses its contact and compression with the inner wall of the track groove 4011. As a result, the forward rotation control circuit of the positioning motor 402 is in a standby invalid state (i.e., the control circuit is always in the open state, and the positioning motor 402 cannot continue to perform forward rotation through the control device). After that, the positioning motor 402 is de-energized, so the adapter mechanism 4 will not continue to tension the ring fabric. It is convenient and flexible to use, and can adapt to ring fabrics of different lengths for shaping treatment, with extremely strong adaptability.

[0044] The specific usage and function of this embodiment: In this invention, the annular fabric is first installed on the outside of the circulation assembly. When the circulation assembly is in its initial state, the shaping roller 201, the drive roller 302, and the inner support roller 406 are on the same vertical line. The annular fabric can then be directly sleeved onto the outside of the shaping roller 201, the drive roller 302, and the inner support roller 406 to achieve the fabric installation operation, which is convenient and quick. Afterwards, the circulation assembly can automatically tension the annular fabric in preparation for subsequent shaping operations. Under the action of the pressure spring 4052, the contact switch 4053 is pressed against the inner wall of the track groove 4011, thereby putting the forward rotation control circuit of the positioning motor 402 into a ready-to-control effective state (i.e., at this time, the external control device can be activated). When the forward rotation control circuit of the positioning motor 402 is activated, the positioning motor 402 can rotate forward. The positioning motor 402 drives the track slider 401 to move, achieving the tensioning operation of the annular fabric. When the positioning motor 402 rotates, it drives the positioning rod 403 to rotate synchronously. The positioning rod 403, when rotating, drives the track slider 401 to move via its threaded rod. The track slider 401, when moving, drives the side support roller 404 and the inner support roller 406 to move synchronously. Thus, under the action of the two sets of adapter mechanisms 4, the inner and outer rings of the annular fabric can be stretched and tensioned. The inner support roller 406 can stretch the annular fabric from the inside, while the side support roller 404 can limit its movement from the outside, ensuring the annular fabric is stably tensioned. The loop fabric is stretched out in a fixed manner, and there is no adhesion or contact between the two sides. Then, under the rotation of the setting roller 201 and the drive roller 302, the loop fabric can achieve cyclic movement and shaping. The rotation motor 202 drives the setting roller 201 to rotate, and the drive motor 301 drives the drive roller 302 to rotate. Thus, the loop fabric can cyclically move and pass through the setting roller 201 for heating and shaping. The adapter mechanism 4 has an automatic adaptation function to the length of the loop fabric. Therefore, when assembling loop fabrics of different specifications, the circulation component can adaptively tension the loop fabric, ensuring sufficient tension without causing breakage or damage. The adapter mechanism 4 is stable in use. During the tensioning operation of the circular fabric, the fabric is folded to reduce the distance between its top and bottom ends until the top and bottom ends of the fabric abut against the outside of the shaping roller 201 and the drive roller 302, respectively. Afterward, as the adapter mechanism 4 continues the tensioning action, the tension force gradually increases due to the length of the circular fabric and acts on the inner support roller 406. When the tension force is small, the force acting on the inner support roller 406 is less than the elastic force of the pressure spring 4052. At this time, the contact switch 4053 is pressed against the inner wall of the track groove 4011, causing the forward rotation control circuit of the positioning motor 402 to be in a ready-to-control effective state and continuously rotate forward to perform the tensioning action of the adapter mechanism 4. When the tension force is greater than the required force...At this point, the force acting on the inner support roller 406 is greater than the elastic force of the pressure spring 4052, causing the adapter seat 405 to move to one side to buffer and avoid the tensioning action and compress the pressure spring 4052. During this process, the contact switch 4053 loses its contact and compression with the inner wall of the track groove 4011. Consequently, the forward rotation control circuit of the positioning motor 402 is in a standby invalid state (i.e., the control circuit is always in an open state, and the positioning motor 402 cannot continue to perform forward rotation through the control device). Afterward, the positioning motor 402 is de-energized, and the adapter mechanism 4 will no longer tension the annular fabric. This allows for the adaptation of annular fabrics of different lengths for shaping. After shaping, the positioning motor 402 is reversed by the control device to reset the adapter mechanism 4, and the annular fabric is then removed for subsequent processing.
