The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.
[0029] See also Figures 1 to 3 , which is a preferred embodiment of the utility model, is a forming punch 100 for a paper cup, comprising a machine base 10, a pre-pressing mechanism 20, a forming mechanism 30, a curling mechanism 40 installed on the machine base 10, and a controller (not shown) for controlling the coordinated operation of the pre-pressing mechanism 20, the forming mechanism 30 and the curling mechanism 40.
[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the pre-pressing mechanism 20 includes a pre-pressing power member 21 arranged on the machine base 10, and a pre-pressing ring 22 which is transmission-connected to the pre-pressing power member 21, and the pre-pressing power member 21 drives the pre-pressing ring 22 to press the external pre-pressing die; the molding mechanism 30 includes a molding power member 31 arranged on the machine base 10, and a molding pressure head 32 which is transmission-connected to the molding power member 31, the molding pressure head 32 is penetrated by the pre-pressing ring 22, and the molding power member 31 drives the molding pressure head 32 to press the external molding die; the curling mechanism 40 includes a curling power member 41 arranged on the machine base 10, and a curling pressure ring 42 which is transmission-connected to the curling mechanism 40, the curling pressure ring 42 is arranged between the pre-pressing ring 22 and the molding pressure head 32, and the curling power member 41 drives the curling pressure ring 42 to press the external curling die.
[0031] In this embodiment, the pre-stressing power component 21, the forming power component 31 and the curling power component 41 are all servo motors with torque feedback. The controller is electrically connected to the pre-stressing power component 21, the forming power component 31 and the curling power component 41. The controller receives and processes the torque information fed back by the pre-stressing power component 21, the forming power component 31 and the curling power component 41, and then dynamically adjusts the output torque of the pre-stressing power component 21, the forming power component 31 and the curling power component 41 according to the fed back torque information.
[0032] The principle of the controller dynamically controlling the output torque of each power component based on the feedback torque of each power component is:
[0033] Since the thickness of each batch of paper may be different, when the thickness of a batch of paper is thinner than the thickness of standard paper, the distance that the pre-pressing ring 22, the forming pressure head 32 and the curling pressure ring 42 need to press down is larger than the normal pressing distance, and at the same time, the torque required to be output by the pre-pressing power member 21, the forming power member 31 and the curling power member 41 is smaller than the normal output torque. Therefore, when the thickness of a batch of paper is thinner than the thickness of standard paper, the controller controls the pre-pressing ring 22, the forming pressure head 32 and the curling pressure ring 42 to press down a certain distance more than the normal distance according to the feedback torque, and the torque output by the pre-pressing power member 21, the forming power member 31 and the curling power member 41 is smaller than the normal distance to avoid rupture during the paper cup forming process. When the thickness of a batch of paper is thicker than the thickness of standard paper, the distance that the pre-pressing ring 22, the forming pressure head 32 and the curling pressure ring 42 need to press down is smaller than the normal pressing distance. At the same time, the torque required to be output by the pre-pressing power member 21, the forming power member 31 and the curling power member 41 is larger than the normal output torque. Therefore, when the thickness of a batch of paper is thicker than the thickness of standard paper, the controller controls the pressing distance of the pre-pressing ring 22, the forming pressure head 32 and the curling pressure ring 42 to retreat a certain distance from the normal distance according to the feedback torque. The torque output by the pre-pressing power member 21, the forming power member 31 and the curling power member 41 is larger than normal to ensure that thicker paper can also be accurately formed.
[0034] The controller can also adjust the heating temperature of the paper according to the torque feedback from each power component. For example, when the paper is thick, a higher heating temperature and a longer heat preservation and pressure holding time are required. When the paper is thin, the heating temperature needs to be lowered and the heat preservation and pressure holding time needs to be shortened for greater efficiency. When there is no paper on the die or there are multiple sheets of paper stacked, the controller can make corresponding instructions, such as a shutdown alarm, according to the torque feedback from each power component. This is because when there is no paper on the die or there are multiple sheets of paper stacked, the torque feedback from each power component must be abnormal. At this time, a shutdown alarm can avoid damaging the mold.

A sliding sleeve (not shown) is arranged inside the shaft cylinder 45 and slides with the mandrel 35.
[0041] In this embodiment, there are two third push rods 43, and the two third push rods 43 are arranged at intervals. The ends of the two third push rods 43 away from the third push plate 44 are connected by a connecting plate 46, and a third nut (not marked in the figure) is installed on the connecting plate 46.
