Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a tool for applying masking tape to the skirting board of a container ship, which belongs to the field of shipbuilding technology. Background Technology

[0002] Painted skirting boards are used to protect the base of walls in container ship deck hatch coamings, living area exterior walls, and engine rooms, preventing dirt, moisture, and damage between the corners and the floor. During skirting board painting, the area to be painted on the wall facade needs to be separated from other parts using masking tape to ensure the paint doesn't stain other areas. Currently, masking tape is applied manually, which has the following drawbacks: it requires two people to measure, mark, and cut the tape; the tape is often long; and it tends to tilt during manual application, resulting in uneven edges and compromised work efficiency and aesthetics. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this invention provides a tool for applying masking tape to the skirting board of a container ship. The tool is supported by guide wheels and slides along the wall to ensure neat edges of the tape, improve aesthetics, and make the application of masking tape to the skirting board convenient.

[0004] A tool for applying masking tape to the skirting board of a container ship includes a bracket and a tape feeding mechanism; the bracket has four casters under the platform, a boss above the platform, a guide wheel mounting plate on the left side of the boss, and a guide wheel mounted on the guide wheel mounting plate; In the coating masking tape feeding mechanism, the tape inner support and the pressure roller mounting plate are fixed on the boss. The pressure roller axle mounting plate is equipped with auxiliary rollers and pressure roller shafts, and a gap is left between the auxiliary rollers and the pressure roller shafts for the tape to pass through. The axis of the tape inner support used to place the tape roll is perpendicular to the boss, and the axis of the pressure roller shaft is parallel to the axis of the tape inner support. The pressure roller shaft and the guide wheel are both located on the front side of the boss and extend beyond the vertical plane of the platform's leading edge.

[0005] Furthermore, a support plate is fixedly installed on the rear side of the guide wheel mounting plate.

[0006] Furthermore, the pressure roller is made of an elastic material.

[0007] Furthermore, both the pressure roller and the guide wheel act on the working surface and roll on the working surface during operation.

[0008] Furthermore, the distance from the auxiliary roller to the leading edge of the platform is less than the distance from the pressure roller to the leading edge of the platform.

[0009] A method for using a masking tape application tool for coating baseboards on container ships includes the following steps: S1. Place the masking tape over the inner support of the tape and put it on the boss. Pull out a section of the masking tape and pass it through the gap between the auxiliary roller and the pressure roller. The adhesive side of the masking tape should face the auxiliary roller, and the non-adhesive side should be close to the pressure roller. S2. Press the pulled-out masking tape onto the work surface to be pasted using the pressure roller. After confirming that the pasting position is correct, press the guide roller firmly against the work surface to be pasted. S3. Press down on the boss with one hand and push the masking tape applicator. The universal wheel at the bottom of the platform rolls the applicator forward. The guide wheel acts on the work surface to guide the applicator. As the applicator moves forward, the tape roll on the inner support of the tape rotates continuously and the tape unfolds. The unfolded tape is pasted onto the work surface through the pressure roller until the pasting is completed.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: Using a masking tape applicator for baseboard coating eliminates the need for measuring, marking, and cutting the masking tape, allowing for direct application and ensuring precision and neatness. The tool's contact area with the wall is unobstructed, allowing for real-time assessment of the tape's application status, such as air bubbles affecting edge neatness, enabling adjustments as needed. This prevents wrinkles and lifting, ensuring the desired finish is achieved. Therefore, this tool significantly improves the efficiency of baseboard tape application, guarantees neat edges, enhances aesthetics, and makes baseboard coating masking tape application convenient. For example, on the exterior wall of a residential area on a methanol dual-fuel container ship, the process would take two people 8 hours without the tool, while using this tool, a single person could complete it in 6 hours.

[0011] Among them, the guide wheel supports the pasting tool to slide along the wall. The guide wheel has a small contact area with the wall surface, so it will not scratch the wall surface. The low friction makes operation easier. Attached Figure Description

[0024] A tool for applying masking tape to the baseboards of container ships, such as... Figure 1 This includes the support frame and the coating masking tape feeding mechanism: The bracket includes a platform 1 and a boss 3. Four casters 2 are installed at the bottom of the bracket. The boss 3 is set on the top of the platform 1. There is a guide wheel mounting plate 4 on the left side of the boss 3. A guide wheel 6 is installed on the guide wheel mounting plate 4. The inner support 7 of the coating masking tape feeding mechanism and the pressure roller mounting plate 11 are fixed on the boss 3, with the axis perpendicular to the boss 3. The size of the inner support 7 is designed according to the size of commonly used consumables, so that the coating masking tape 10 can rotate freely along the axis after being put on. The right side of the boss 3 is provided with a pressure roller 8 mounted on the pressure roller shaft mounting plate 11. The axis of the pressure roller 8 is parallel to the axis of the inner support 7. The pressure roller 8 and the guide wheel 6 are both on the front side of the boss 3.

[0025] In use, the masking tape 10 is fitted onto the inner support 7. The tape 10 can rotate along its axis on the inner support 7. It is placed on the boss 3. A section of the masking tape 10 is pulled out and passed between the auxiliary roller 9 and the pressure roller 8. Figure 3 .

[0026] Press the pulled-out masking tape 10 onto the wall 12 where it needs to be pasted using the pressure roller. After confirming that the pasting position is correct, press the guide roller 6 firmly against the wall 12 where it needs to be pasted. Figure 2 The guide wheel 6 supports the pasting tool to slide along the wall 12. The guide wheel 6 has a small contact area with the wall surface, so it will not scratch the wall surface. The low friction makes the operation quick and labor-saving.

[0027] Using one hand to hold down the boss 3, push the masking tape applicator. The four casters 2 at the bottom of the platform 1 slide on the ground, and the masking tape 10 is pulled out as the applicator moves.

[0028] The masking tape application tool has no obstruction at the contact point with the wall, making it easy for personnel to judge the application status of the tape 10 during operation, so that adjustments can be made at any time to ensure that the construction requirements are met. When applying, the application status of the masking tape 10 under the action of the pressure roller can be observed at any time, and the other hand can be used to assist in pressing if necessary.

[0029] Furthermore, to prevent the guide wheel mounting plate 4 from wobbling back and forth during use, a support plate 5 is placed behind the guide wheel mounting plate 4.

[0030] Furthermore, it is desirable to make the pressure roller 8 an elastic material.

[0031] The elastic pressure roller material allows the masking tape 10 to better adhere to the wall surface, ensuring full contact between the masking tape 10 and the wall surface 12, and expelling air.

[0032] Furthermore, the coating masking tape feeding mechanism uses a wooden board as its support and a finished product box sealer, which is directly fixed to the boss 3 with screws.

[0033] The masking tape applicator bracket is made of wood, has a simple structure, is highly versatile, and can be directly purchased as a box sealer that is fixed to the boss 3 with screws, thus adapting to different consumables. It is easy to operate and has low cost.

[0034] Method for applying masking tape to container ship skirting boards using a masking tape application tool. S1. Place the masking tape 10 around the tape inner support 7 and put it on the boss 3. Pull out a section of the masking tape 10 and pass it through the auxiliary roller 9 and the pressure roller 8. The adhesive side of the masking tape 10 should face the auxiliary roller 9, and the non-adhesive side should be close to the pressure roller 8.

[0035] S2. Press the pulled-out masking tape 10 onto the wall 12 to be pasted using the pressure roller. After confirming that the pasting position is correct, press the guide wheel 6 firmly against the wall 12 to be pasted.
