Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of leather production technology, and more particularly to an automatic leather stretching and drying line. Background Technology

[0002] Stretching and drying is a crucial step in leather production. Its core task is to mechanically stretch and fix leather, which is still in a high-moisture state after tanning, and then dry it under controlled conditions. This process directly determines the smoothness, dimensional stability, and overall shape of the finished leather, making it an indispensable link in improving leather quality and added value. However, the stretching and drying equipment widely used in the industry currently suffers from significant technical defects. These devices have low levels of automation; from clamping and positioning the leather, applying tension and stretching, to unloading and transferring it after drying, many steps still rely on manual operation, resulting in low production efficiency and difficulty in ensuring consistent quality. Furthermore, the equipment design often treats stretching and drying as two separate steps, lacking precise and uniform control over the temperature and humidity in the drying chamber, affecting the drying effect and the inherent quality of the leather. In addition, existing equipment has poor adaptability; its limitations are particularly pronounced when facing diverse, small-batch market demands or when large-scale, continuous production is required, severely restricting production flexibility and overall efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing an automatic leather stretching and drying line.

[0018] Working principle: When using the device, first check the connection status and operational stability of each component to ensure that the moving component, adjusting component, installation component, motors, and hydraulic rods are operating normally, thus avoiding the initial hidden dangers of low automation, disjointed processes, and poor adaptability of existing equipment. Then, according to the specifications of the leather to be processed, start the adjusting component to adjust the position of the stretching clamp, start the adjusting self-locking motor 14, drive the adjusting bidirectional screw 15 to rotate, so that the two adjusting sliders 11 slide relative to or towards each other along the adjusting groove, adjust the distance between the two adjusting recesses 17, and adapt to leather of different sizes.

[0019] Place both ends of the leather into the two adjusting recesses 17, activate the fixing hydraulic rod 18 to push the fixing block towards the leather, clamping and fixing the leather. The adjusting spring 28 acts as a buffer to prevent excessive clamping force from damaging the leather. No manual clamping is required, solving the problem of low efficiency caused by manual clamping in existing equipment. After clamping, activate the adjusting hydraulic rod 16 to pull the adjusting recesses 17 outward, causing the leather to stretch, thus achieving automatic stretching.

[0020] After the stretching is completed, the moving component is activated to adjust the position of the stretching plate to facilitate the linkage of the subsequent drying process. The moving self-locking motor 9 is activated to drive the moving gear 10 to rotate. The moving gear 10 meshes with the assembly tooth groove 3, driving the assembly block 4 to slide along the assembly bracket 2, thereby moving the assembly frame 7 and the stretched leather without the need for manual transfer.

[0021] According to the leather drying requirements, the installation components are activated for precise drying. The installation hydraulic cylinder 21 is activated to push the installation horizontal plate 20 up and down, adjusting the distance between the installation blower and the leather to adapt to leathers of different thicknesses. The installation electric heating pipe 24 is activated to heat the leather. At the same time, the external pipe fittings of the installation horizontal tube 23 are rotated to introduce hot air inward. The hot air is blown by the installation blower to the installation electric heating pipe 24 for reheating and contact with the leather surface. The drive self-locking motor 26 is activated to drive the drive gear 27 to rotate. The drive gear 27 meshes with the installation gear 25, driving the installation horizontal tube 23 to rotate, so that the installation blower blows air evenly, ensuring that the leather dries evenly.

[0022] If the leather stretching angle needs to be adjusted, start the self-locking motor 8 to drive the assembly shaft 6 to rotate, which in turn drives the assembly frame 7 and the leather to rotate, adjusting to the appropriate stretching and drying angle, further improving the stretching effect and drying efficiency. During operation, the self-locking function of the self-locking motor can fix the position of each component, ensuring the stability of the stretching, movement and drying process, and avoiding positional deviation that affects the processing quality.

[0023] After drying, all motors, hydraulic rods, and electric heating pipes are turned off. The fixed hydraulic rod 18 is then started in reverse to reset the fixed clamping block, loosen the leather, and complete the leather stretching drying operation. The entire process of clamping, stretching, moving, and drying is fully automated and linked, requiring minimal human intervention. This effectively solves the core defects of existing equipment, improves processing efficiency and leather quality, and meets the needs of large-scale production.

[0024] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
