Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of vacuum forming processing devices, in particular to a material processing device used for a vacuum forming machine. Background Art
[0002] A vacuum forming machine is a mechanical device used to process materials such as plastics and rubber. It is mainly used to manufacture various plastic products, such as packaging of various shapes, automotive interior parts, and electronic product housings. It softens the plastic sheet by heating it, then uses vacuum negative pressure to adsorb it on the mold surface, and solidifies it into the desired shape after cooling. In order to process the material efficiently and accurately, the vacuum forming machine is usually equipped with a special material handling device, which allows the plastic sheet to be tightly attached to the mold in a heated state, so that the shape of the mold can be accurately replicated. This ensures a high degree of accuracy and consistency of the molded product, and is suitable for applications that require high-precision shapes.
[0003] Traditional vacuum forming machine material handling devices often use a single feeding structure, which requires manual intervention to transport and handle materials such as plastic sheets. Manual material handling is usually slow and has low production efficiency. Operators need to spend time placing the sheets in the correct position, which may become a bottleneck in the production line. Manual material handling involves operators working around production equipment, which poses operational risks and safety hazards. Operators may be exposed to heat, squeezing or other injuries during equipment operation, and it is difficult to ensure the consistency of each material handling. This may lead to instability in the quality of the finished product and increase the scrap rate of the product. Utility Model Content

[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0022] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The utility model provides an embodiment: a material processing device for a vacuum forming machine, comprising a body 1, a motor 2 is arranged on the side wall of the body 1, a connecting rod 3 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 2, one end of the connecting rod 3 is rotatably connected to a connecting rod 2 4, one end of the connecting rod 2 4 is rotatably connected to a slide 5, a plurality of side panels 6 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the body 1, a slide groove 8 is provided inside the side panel 6, a plurality of pulleys 7 are rotatably connected to the side wall of the slide 5, the pulley 7 is slidably connected inside the slide groove 8, a bracket 9 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the side panel 6, a material storage bin 10 is arranged on the upper surface of the body 1, and a cooling component is arranged on the top of the body 1.
[0023] Specifically, the material to be processed is placed in the storage bin 10 of the equipment. Subsequently, by starting the motor 2, the motor outputs a rotational force through the connecting rod 3, driving the connecting rod 3 to rotate and change its own inclination angle. The movement of the connecting rod 3 further affects the connecting rod 4, causing one end of the connecting rod 4 to rotate and change its own inclination angle. Through the action of the connecting rod 4 at the bottom of the slide 5, the slide 5 can be pushed and pulled. During the movement of the slide 5, the pushing structure at the top can push the plastic plate and other materials in the bracket 9. The automation feature of this system reduces the reliance on manual operation, reduces potential operating errors, and improves the stability and reliability of the production line. At the same time, due to the automatic execution of the entire feeding process, operators can focus more on other key tasks, further improving overall production efficiency.
[0024] Reference Figure 3The cooling component includes a cooling tower 11, which is arranged on the upper surface of the body 1. A slide 12 is slidably connected inside the cooling tower 11, and a nozzle 13 is arranged on the top of the slide 12. A support plate 14 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the body 1, and a motor 15 is arranged on the top of the support plate 14. A rotating column 17 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 15, and a rotating ring 16 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating column 17. A fixed plate 18 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating ring 16, and a turntable 19 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the fixed plate 18. A rotating shaft 20 is rotatably connected inside the side wall of the turntable 19, and a rotating frame 21 is rotatably connected to one end of the rotating shaft 20, and the rotating frame 21 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the slide 12.
[0025] Specifically, the motor 2 15 is started, and its output rotational force acts on the rotating column 17, so that the rotating column 17 starts to rotate. The rotation of the rotating column 17 also drives the rotating ring 16 on its outer wall to follow the rotation. Through the rotation of the rotating ring 16, the fixed plate 18 of the side wall is kept in a displacement state. During the movement of the fixed plate 18, the rotating shaft 20 keeps rotating in the turntable 19 on the side wall of the fixed plate 18 and continuously changes the inclination angle. The repeated movement of the rotating shaft 20 further affects the rotating frame 21 at one end thereof, so that it pulls the slide 12 on the side wall to slide repeatedly inside the cooling tower 11. With the movement of the slide 12, the nozzle 13 on the top will also move repeatedly. This design ensures that the heating kettle can be cyclically and efficiently cooled when heating the material. Such a circulating cooling system ensures the normal progress of the heating work, effectively prevents the occurrence of problems such as overheating of the equipment or temperature instability, and this design provides reliable protection for the vacuum forming process. By ensuring the normal progress of the heating process, the system ensures the stability and quality of the material during the processing. This circulating cooling mechanism not only improves processing efficiency, but also extends the service life of the equipment and reduces maintenance costs.
[0026] Working principle: when it is necessary to feed materials such as plastic plates, first place the materials in the material storage bin 10, then start the motor 2, the motor 2 outputs a rotating force to the connecting rod 3 to drive the connecting rod 3 to rotate and change its own tilt angle, the rotation of the connecting rod 3 drives the connecting rod 2 4 at one end to follow the rotation and change its own tilt angle, the slide 5 can be pushed and pulled by the connecting rod 2 4 at the bottom of the slide 5 to make the slide 5 move, that is, the pulley 7 slides in the slide groove 8 inside the side plate 6, and during the sliding of the slide 5, the pushing structure on the top of the slide 5 can push the plastic plate and other materials in the bracket 9 to perform subsequent heating and other processes, without manual intervention for feeding, which improves the work efficiency and the consistency of material transportation, ensures the quality of vacuum forming, and improves the material quality. When the material is heated, the motor 2 15 is started, and the motor 2 15 outputs a rotating force to the rotating column 17. When the rotating column 17 rotates, the rotating ring 16 on its outer wall can be driven to rotate accordingly. Through the rotation of the rotating ring 16, the fixed plate 18 on its side wall is driven to maintain a displacement state. When the fixed plate 18 moves, the rotating shaft 20 keeps rotating in the turntable 19 on the side wall of the fixed plate 18 and repeatedly changes the inclination angle. The repeated movement of the rotating shaft 20 drives the rotating frame 21 at one end thereof to pull the slide 12 on its side wall to slide repeatedly inside the cooling tower 11, and then drives the nozzle 13 on the top of the slide 12 to move repeatedly, thereby allowing the heating kettle to obtain cyclic and efficient cooling when heating the material, ensuring the normal progress of the heating work, and providing a strong guarantee for the vacuum forming process.
[0027] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein.
