Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vacuum forming machines, and more specifically, to a feeding device of the vacuum forming machine. Background Art

[0002] The blister forming machine is also called the thermoplastic forming machine. It mainly uses the vacuum suction force generated by the vacuum pump to heat and soften the thermoplastic plastic sheets such as PVC, PET, PETG, APTT, PP, PE, PS, etc. into vacuum covers of various shapes through molds, or attach them to the surfaces of products of various shapes.

[0003] At present, when the traditional blister forming machine is in use, it is necessary to manually place the plastic sheets on the blister forming machine one by one, and it is impossible to realize automatic operation, and the efficiency is low. The Chinese patent application number CN202320370747.0 discloses a feeding device for a blister forming machine, including a working frame, a material storage vehicle and a conveyor belt. After the suction cup is driven by an electric lifting rod to fit the plastic sheet at the top of the plastic sheet pile, the suction pump is started to extract the gas inside the suction cup through the air pipe, so that the suction cup can absorb and fix the top plastic sheet. The electric lifting rod lifts the plastic sheet, and then the electric push rod is started to shorten and reset the rack, so that the connecting plate, the electric lifting rod, the suction cup and the plastic sheet are transported to the top of the conveyor belt. The suction cup releases the plastic sheet and falls onto the conveyor belt, which is then sent into the vacuum forming machine to complete the feeding. However, there is no limit on the transmission process of the plastic parts. When the suction cup absorbs the plastic sheet and transfers it down, it is easy to cause deviation, resulting in inaccurate positioning of the plastic sheet when it is placed in the vacuum forming machine, affecting subsequent processing operations.

[0017] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The utility model is further described in detail.

[0018] A feeding device for a blister forming machine comprises a blister forming machine 1 and a feeding trolley 4. The blister forming machine 1 comprises a frame 2 and a conveyor belt 3. The feeding trolley 4 is placed on the feeding side of the conveyor belt 3. The feeding trolley 4 comprises a bottom plate 41, a receiving plate 42, a fixing plate 43 and two side plates 44. The bottom ends of the two side plates 44 are respectively fixed to three sides of the bottom plate 41. The two side plates 44 are parallel to each other. The fixing plate 43 is placed between the two side plates 44. The receiving plate 42 is placed on the bottom plate 41.

The sliding ends 421 on both sides of the receiving plate 42 are respectively placed in the sliding grooves 441 of the two side plates 44 and are slidably connected to the sliding grooves 441. Two groups of support components are respectively placed in the sliding grooves 421 of the two side plates 44. The support components include a spring 15, a fixing rod 16, a sleeve 17 and two sliding rods 18. The top end of the fixing rod 16 is fixed to the bottom of the sliding end 421, the sleeve 17 is fixed to the bottom end in the sliding groove 441, the spring 15 is placed in the sleeve 17, and the bottom end of the fixing rod 16 extends into the sleeve 17 and is connected to the spring 15.

The plastic sheets are stacked on the receiving plate 42, and the sliding ends 421 at both ends of the receiving plate 42 are supported by the supporting components at both ends. Since the fixed rod 16 and the spring 15 connected to the sliding end 421 are against each other, when the weight of the plastic sheet changes, the compression degree of the spring 15 changes, so that the height of the sliding end 421 and the receiving plate 42 changes, so that the top plastic sheet remains against the limit plate 45.

[0020] A pushing assembly is provided on the fixed plate 43, and the pushing assembly includes a cylinder 19 and a push plate 20. The cylinder 19 is fixed on the fixed plate 43, and the output end of the cylinder 19 passes through the fixed plate 43 and is fixedly connected to the push plate 20.

The two connecting rods 14 are fixedly connected to one end of the first gear bar 10 and the second gear bar 11, respectively. There is a connecting hole for the rotating shaft 13 to be rotatably connected, the rotating shaft 13 passes through the connecting holes on the two connecting rods 14, and the two connecting rods can rotate relative to each other around the rotating shaft 13. The two limit blocks 7 are respectively fixed to the bottom ends of the two connecting rods 14. The two limit blocks are located on the conveyor belt and are symmetrical. When the plastic sheet is sent between the two limit blocks 7, the output end of the motor 12 rotates to drive the first gear 8 and the second gear 9 to rotate, and the first gear bar 10 and the second gear bar 11 engaged with the first gear 8 and the second gear bar 9 rotate accordingly, and drive the two connecting rods 14 connected to the first gear bar 10 and the second gear bar 11 respectively to rotate around the rotating shaft 13, and the two limit blocks 7 are close to each other and the plastic sheet is confined between the two limit blocks 7.

[0022] Four universal wheels 21 with brakes are fixed to the bottom of the feeding trolley 4, so as to facilitate the movement of the feeding trolley 4 to replenish the plastic sheets.

[0023] The working principle of the embodiment of the utility model is as follows: the plastic sheets to be processed are stacked on the receiving plate 42 of the feeding trolley 4, and the feeding trolley 4 is placed on the feeding side of the conveyor belt 3, the uppermost plastic sheet is against the limit plate 45, the output end of the cylinder 19 extends to push the push plate 20 to push the uppermost plastic sheet toward the conveyor belt 3, and the plastic sheet is pushed between the two limit blocks 7, the output end of the motor 12 rotates to drive the first gear 8 and the second gear 9 to rotate, the first gear bar 10 and the second gear bar 11 rotate accordingly, and drive the two connected connecting rods 14 to rotate around the rotating shaft 12, and the two limit blocks 7 are against each other. The push plate 20 continues to push the plastic sheet forward, and both ends of the plastic sheet move forward along the limit blocks 7 and fall onto the conveyor belt 3. The output end of the motor 12 is reversed to separate and reset the two limit blocks 7 and send them into the vacuum forming machine 1 for processing; after the top plastic sheet is removed, the weight of the plastic sheet is reduced, and the springs 15 of the two groups of support components rebound to push the receiving plate 42 up, so that the remaining plastic sheet moves upward and contacts the upper limit plate 45, and the cylinder 12 pushes the top plastic sheet toward the conveyor belt 3 again, and repeats the above operation.
