Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automation equipment, in particular to a production device for an annular tensioning component. Background Art
[0002] With the development of material technology and the increase in social demand, inflatable products have been widely used in leisure, entertainment and sports because of their light weight, easy packaging and storage, such as inflatable mattresses or other various inflatable cushions.
[0003] refer to Figure 1a and Figure 1b The inflatable product 10 (taking an inflatable mattress as an example) includes a first wall 11 and a second wall 12, and an inflatable chamber 13 is formed between the first wall 11 and the second wall 12. The inflatable chamber 13 is provided with Figure 1b The annular tension member 20 shown. Specifically, the annular tension member 20 includes an upper sheet 21 and a lower sheet 22, both ends of which are fixed by high-frequency welding to form a welding end 34, one end of the annular tension member 20 is connected to the first wall 11 of the inflatable chamber 13, and the other end is connected to the second wall 12 of the inflatable chamber 13. After the inflatable mattress is inflated, the annular tension member 20 generates a tensioning effect between the first wall 11 and the second wall 12 of the inflatable chamber 13 to form a mattress with a stable shape.
[0004] That is to say, a large number of annular tension members 20 are needed in the inflatable product 10 to maintain various shapes and forms. The annular tension members 20 play an important role in stabilizing the final shape of the inflatable product 10. Therefore, the production efficiency of the annular tension members 20 also determines the production efficiency of the inflatable product 10.
[0005] However, currently, the production of the annular tension member 20 is mainly performed manually, which is inefficient. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the problem of low production efficiency of the current annular tensioning member. The utility model provides an annular tensioning member production device, which can realize automatic production of the annular tensioning member and effectively improve the production efficiency of the annular tensioning member.
[0007] In order to solve the above technical problems, the embodiment of the utility model discloses an annular tension member production device for producing an annular tension member, comprising:
[0008] Loading station, including:
[0009] A first feeding roller, used for providing a first sheet material;
[0010] A second feeding roller, used for providing a second sheet material;
[0011] Welding stations, including:
[0012] A welding machine having a plurality of parallel welding rods, wherein the welding rods are used to weld the first sheet material and the second sheet material to form a double-layer sheet material, wherein the double-layer sheet material has a plurality of parallel weld seams;
[0013] Cutting station, including:
[0014] A cutting mechanism, wherein the cutting mechanism is used to cut the double-layer sheet material to form a plurality of double-layer strip materials, and the cutting direction is parallel to the length direction of the weld;
[0015] Separation station, including:
[0016] The separation mechanism is located between the welding machine and the separation mechanism, and the separation mechanism is used to separate each of the double-layer strips along each of the cut welds to form a plurality of annular tensioning members.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the automated production of the annular tensioning member can be realized. Specifically, at the loading station, the first sheet material is provided by the first loading roller (a part of the first sheet material eventually forms the upper sheet material of the annular tensioning member), and the second sheet material is provided by the second loading roller (a part of the second sheet material eventually forms the lower sheet material of the annular tensioning member). At the welding station, the first sheet material and the second sheet material are welded (for example, high-frequency welding) by a welding machine to form a double-layer sheet material, and a plurality of parallel welds are formed on the double-layer sheet material. At the cutting station, the double-layer sheet material is cut by a cutting mechanism to form a plurality of double-layer strips, and each weld is cut into a plurality of short welds. At the separation station, each double-layer strip material is separated along the short weld by a separation mechanism to form a plurality of independent annular tensioning members. The above process does not require manual operation, and the automated production of the annular tensioning member can be realized, which greatly improves the production efficiency of the annular tensioning member and has good economy.
[0018] According to a specific embodiment of the present utility model, the separation mechanism comprises:
[0019] a first differential assembly, for receiving and conveying the plurality of double-layer strips, and for clamping the double-layer strips;
[0020] A second differential assembly is spaced apart from the first differential assembly, the plurality of double-layer strips are transmitted from the first differential assembly to the second differential assembly, and the second differential assembly is used to clamp the plurality of double-layer strips;
[0021] The transmission speed of the second differential assembly is greater than that of the first differential assembly.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the first differential assembly and the second differential assembly are respectively arranged to clamp the double-layer strip material, and the transmission speed of the second differential assembly is made greater than that of the first differential assembly. Through the speed difference between the second differential assembly and the first differential assembly, the double-layer strip material can be easily separated along the short weld to form a plurality of independent annular tensioning members. The above structure is simple and effective, and can separate a plurality of double-layer strip materials at the same time, which can effectively improve the production efficiency of the annular tensioning members.
[0023] According to a specific embodiment of the present utility model, the first differential assembly includes:
[0024] A first differential roller;

[0026] The first differential roller and the second differential roller are used to clamp the double-layer strip and drive the double-layer strip to move to the second differential assembly.
[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, a first differential roller and a second differential roller are set up and clamped with the double-layer strip. While clamping the double-layer strip, the double-layer strip is transmitted to the second differential assembly along the first direction, so that the first differential roller, the second differential roller (i.e., the first differential assembly) and the second differential assembly respectively clamp the double-layer strip and separate the double-layer strip along the short weld to form an independent annular tensioning member.
[0028] According to a specific embodiment of the present utility model, the first differential assembly further includes:
[0029] a first connecting roller, spaced apart from the first differential roller, the first differential roller being located between the cutting station and the first connecting roller;
[0030] A plurality of first belts are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the first connecting roller, and the plurality of first belts are wound around the surfaces of the first differential roller and the first connecting roller;

The first belt and the second belt can effectively prevent the double-layer strip from being rolled up, and ensure that the double-layer strip is smoothly transmitted to the second differential assembly.
[0034] Specifically, since the first differential roller and the second differential roller are both cylinders, the double-layer strip material will roll up after being clamped and conveyed by the first differential roller and the second differential roller. After the double-layer strip material is rolled up, the first belt and the second belt can abut against the double-layer strip material to prevent the double-layer strip material from continuing to roll up.

[0038] The first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt are used to clamp the double-layer strip and convey the annular tension member.
[0039] By adopting the above technical solution, two third differential rollers and a first conveyor belt, two fourth differential rollers and a second conveyor belt are set, and the first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt are enabled to clamp the double-layer strip material. At the same time, the transmission of the double-layer strip material is realized, and the speed difference between the second differential assembly and the first differential assembly is used to separate the double-layer strip material along the short weld into independent annular tensioning components.
[0040] According to a specific embodiment of the present utility model, the distance between the two fourth differential rollers is longer than the distance between the two third differential rollers;

[0046] An intermediate conveying assembly, disposed between the separation station and the receiving conveying assembly;
[0047] a sensor, mounted on the intermediate transmission assembly, for detecting whether an annular tensioning member passes through the sensor;
[0048] The intermediate conveying assembly is used to convey the plurality of annular tensioning members to the receiving conveying assembly. When the sensor detects that an annular tensioning member has passed through, the receiving conveying assembly drives the annular tensioning member located in the receiving conveying assembly to move a preset distance.
[0049] By adopting the above technical solution, a sensor is set in the middle conveying assembly. When it is detected that the annular tensioning member passes through the sensor, the material receiving conveying assembly drives the annular tensioning member located at the material receiving conveying assembly to move a preset distance, reserving a position for the annular tensioning member behind, and finally forming a plurality of annular tensioning members in a rectangular array on the material receiving conveying assembly, which facilitates material receiving and effectively improves the material receiving efficiency.

After the pressure of the gas (e.g., air) in the inflatable chamber 13 reaches a desired value, the inflatable product 10 is in an inflated state and maintains a preset shape; and when the gas in the inflatable chamber 13 is discharged, the inflatable product 10 is in a deflated state, and the volume of the inflatable product 10 is greatly reduced relative to when it is in the inflated state, thereby facilitating the storage of the inflatable product 10.
[0092] A plurality of tensioning members (such as Figure 1a The annular tensioning member 20 is shown in the figure, and the tensioning member is connected to the first wall 11 and the second wall 12 by high-frequency welding, hot melting, gluing or other connection methods. After being tensioned, the tensioning member provides a pulling force to the first wall 11 and the second wall 12 to limit the deformation of the inflatable product 10, so that the inflatable product 10 can maintain a preset shape after being inflated.
[0093] Optionally, the plurality of tension members have different structures in different embodiments. For example, each tension member is a sheet-like tension member or a linear tension member.
[0094] The sheet-like tensioning member may have a single-layer structure or a composite-layer structure according to actual needs (the annular tensioning member 20 in the embodiment of the present application is a sheet-like tensioning member with a composite-layer structure).
[0095] When the sheet-like tension member is a single-layer sheet material, it can be made of a polymer material, and the polymer material can include but is not limited to one or more of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyurethane (PU), thermoplastic urethanes (TPU), polyethyleneterephthalate (PET), ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymer and nylon. It can be understood that the main body of the single-layer sheet-like tension member can also be made of other materials other than polymer materials in other embodiments, such as a fabric material, wherein the fabric material can be finely woven or formed into a mesh structure. The fabric material can be but is not limited to a natural fiber fabric (for example, but not limited to, cotton fabric, linen fabric, wool fabric, silk fabric) or a synthetic fiber fabric (for example, but not limited to, polyester fiber fabric, polyethylene fiber fabric, polypropylene fiber fabric).
[0096] When the sheet-like tension member is a composite sheet (ie, the annular tension member 20), it is composed of two or more layers of sheets bonded together by gluing, welding or other means, and each layer of the multi-layer sheet can be made of the polymer material or other materials as described above.

Exemplarily, the direction from the loading station 100 to the receiving station 700 along the first direction X is a conveying direction X1 of the annular tension member production equipment.
[0099] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application does not impose any specific restrictions on the conveying direction X1 of the annular tension member production equipment. In the embodiment of the present application, the conveying direction X1 is a straight line direction parallel to the first direction X. In other possible implementations, the conveying direction X1 may also be a zigzag direction.

The second bracket 210 is a substantially rectangular frame. The first clamp 220 extends along the second direction Y, and the first clamp 220 is connected to the second bracket 210 in a manner that it can move along the first direction X. The first clamp 220 clamps the first sheet 31 and the second sheet 32 along the second direction Y up and down along the third direction Z, so that the first sheet 31 and the second sheet 32 are arranged in an up-and-down manner (such as Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 1 , the welded article is transported from the loading station 100 to the welding station 300 along the conveying direction X1.
[0103] The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the manner in which the first clamper 220 clamps the first sheet 31 and the second sheet 32 .

[0104] Exemplarily, along the second direction Y, a first guide rail 211 is respectively provided on both sides of the top of the second bracket 210, and each first guide rail 211 extends along the first direction X. Correspondingly, the first clamper 220 is respectively provided with a first roller 221 at the bottom of both ends along the second direction Y, and each first roller 221 cooperates with a first guide rail 211 so that the first clamper 220 moves along the extension direction of the first guide rail 211 (i.e., the first direction X) through the first roller 221 to transport the first sheet 31 and the second sheet 32 to the welding station 300.
[0105] refer to Figure 3 Combined with Figures 2 to 5a The welding station 300 includes a third bracket 310, a welding machine 320 and a bottom plate 330.

[0107] Specifically, the third bracket 310 is provided with four limit rods 321, four guide rods 322 and a fixing seat 323. Each limit rod 321 extends along the third direction Z, and each guide rod 322 extends along the third direction Z. The fixing seat 323 is fixed to the upper ends of the four limit rods 321 along the third direction Z.

The driving motor 325 can drive the welding machine 320 to move up and down along the third direction Z relative to the fixed base 323. The guide rod 322 enables the welding machine 320 to have a unique movement direction (i.e., the third direction Z) to weld the first sheet 31 and the second sheet 32 located on the base plate 330.
[0109] The specific number of the limiting rods 321 is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application. For example, in other possible implementations, the number of the limiting rods 321 can also be five, six, seven, etc. The specific number of the guide rods 322 is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application. For example, in other possible implementations, the number of the guide rods 322 can also be five, six, seven, etc.
[0110] The embodiment of the present application does not impose any specific limitation on the driving method of the welding machine 320. For example, in some possible implementations, the welding machine 320 can also be driven to move up and down along the third direction Z by a hydraulic mechanism (not shown).
[0111] For example, reference Figure 5b A plurality of welding rods 324 are disposed at the bottom of the welding machine 320 , each welding rod 324 extends along the second direction Y, and the plurality of welding rods 324 are arranged at intervals along the first direction X.
[0112] During welding, the welding machine 320 presses the first sheet material 31 downward along the third direction Z so that the first sheet material 31, the second sheet material 32 and the bottom plate 330 are sequentially abutted along the third direction Z, and then the first sheet material 31 and the second sheet material 32 are welded by the welding rod 324 to form a double-layer sheet material 30, and a double-layer sheet material 30 is formed as shown in FIG. Figure 5a The weld 33 is shown. By way of example, the welding in the embodiment of the present application is high frequency welding.
[0113] Exemplarily, six stripper bars 340 are disposed on the bottom plate 330 , each stripper bar 340 extends along the second direction Y, and the six stripper bars 340 are spaced apart along the first direction X, and each stripper bar 340 is located between the bottom plate 330 and the second sheet 32 along the third direction Z.
[0114] Since the stripper bar 340 is located between the second sheet 32 and the bottom plate 330 along the third direction Z during welding, the second sheet 32 can be prevented from being bonded to the bottom plate 330. In addition, even if the second sheet 32 is bonded to the bottom plate 330, when the first sheet 31 and the second sheet 32 move along the conveying direction X1, the stripper bar 340 can press the bonding portion between the second sheet 32 and the bottom plate 330 along the first direction X to separate the bonding portion. Therefore, the stripper bar 340 can effectively prevent the second sheet 32 from being bonded to the bottom plate 330 during welding to ensure the smooth progress of the production process.
[0115] The embodiment of the present application does not impose any specific limitation on the specific number of the stripping rods 340 . For example, in other possible implementations, the number of the stripping rods 340 may be five, seven, eight, or other multiple numbers.
[0116] Continue to refer Figure 3 Combined with Figure 5a The second conveying area 400 has a second clamper 420 and a fourth bracket 410. The fourth bracket 410 is a substantially rectangular frame, the second clamper 420 extends along the second direction Y, and the second clamper 420 is connected to the fourth bracket 410 in a movable manner along the first direction X. The second clamper 420 clamps the welded double-layer sheet 30 up and down along the third direction Z on both sides along the second direction Y, and transports the clamped double-layer sheet 30 from the welding station 300 to the cutting station 500 along the conveying direction X1.
[0117] The embodiment of the present application does not impose any specific limitation on the manner in which the second clamper 420 clamps the double-layer sheet 30 . For example, a clamping claw (not shown) may be provided on the second clamper 420 to clamp the double-layer sheet 30 .
[0118] Exemplarily, along the second direction Y, a second guide rail 411 is respectively provided on both sides of the top of the fourth bracket 410, and each second guide rail 411 extends along the first direction X. Accordingly, the second clamper 420 is respectively provided with second rollers 421 at the bottom of both ends along the second direction Y, and each second roller 421 cooperates with a second guide rail 411, so that the second clamper 420 moves along the extension direction of the second guide rail 411 (i.e., the first direction X) through the second rollers 421, so as to transport the first sheet 31 and the second sheet 32 to the welding station 300. In the embodiment of the present application, the second clamper 420 and the first clamper 220 move synchronously along the first direction X.
[0119] refer to Figure 3 Combined with Figure 6 and Figure 8The cutting station 500 is provided with a cutting mechanism 501 and a fifth bracket 510 supporting the cutting mechanism 501. The cutting mechanism 501 cuts the double-layer sheet 30 along the first direction X (that is, the cutting direction of the double-layer sheet 30 in the embodiment of the present application is perpendicular to the extending direction of the weld 33) to form a Figure 6 The double-layer strips 40 are shown to be arranged at intervals along the second direction Y. In addition, each weld 33 on the original double-layer sheet 30 is cut into a plurality of short welds 33a, and the plurality of short welds 33a are distributed at intervals along the second direction Y.
[0120] It should be noted that the portion between each two adjacent short welds 33 a of the double-layer strip 40 can form an annular tensioning member 20 by separating along the short welds 33 a . For ease of description, this portion is also referred to as an annular tensioning member 20 hereinafter.
[0121] Next, multiple double-layer strips 40 enter the separation station 600 along the conveying direction X1. The separation station 600 is provided with a separation mechanism 601, which is fixed on the fifth bracket 510. The separation mechanism 601 separates each double-layer strip 40 along each short weld 33a in turn to form multiple independent annular tensioning members 20 arranged along the second direction Y, and finally transported to the receiving station 700 to form as shown in FIG. Figure 7 The plurality of annular tension members 20 are shown in a generally rectangular array. Accordingly, the short welds 33a are separated to form weld ends 34 of two annular tension members 20, respectively.
[0122] The material collecting station 700 is provided with a material collecting robot 730 , which simultaneously transfers a plurality of annular tensioning members 20 in a rectangular array to a material stacking location 740 , thereby achieving high material collecting efficiency.
[0123] By adopting the above technical solution, the automatic production of the annular tension member 20 can be realized. Specifically, at the feeding station 100, the first sheet 31 (a part of the first sheet 31 eventually forms the upper sheet 21 of the annular tension member 20) is provided by the first feeding roller 120, and the second sheet 32 (a part of the second sheet 32 eventually forms the lower sheet 22 of the annular tension member 20) is provided by the second feeding roller. At the welding station 300, the first sheet 31 and the second sheet 32 are welded by the welding machine 320 to form a double-layer sheet 30, and a plurality of welds 33 extending along the second direction Y are formed on the double-layer sheet 30. At the cutting mechanism 501, the double-layer sheet 30 is cut along the first direction X by the cutter 530 to form a plurality of double-layer strips 40 arranged along the second direction Y. At the separation station 600 , the plurality of annular tension members 20 of each double-layer strip 40 are separated along the short weld seam 33 a by a separation mechanism 601 to form a plurality of independent annular tension members 20 .
[0124] Except that before the annular tensioning member production equipment is started, the operator is required to manually pass the first sheet 31 on the first feeding roller 120 and the second sheet 32 on the second feeding roller 130 through the first conveying area 200, the welding station 300, the second conveying area 400, the cutting station 500 and finally fix them at the separation station 600, the above process does not require manual operation, and the automatic generation of the annular tensioning member 20 can be realized, which greatly improves the production efficiency of the annular tensioning member 20 and has good economy.
[0125] The specific structure of the cutting station 500 is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0126] refer to Figure 3 Combined with Figures 8 to 10a In some possible implementations, three flattening rollers, namely, a first flattening roller 430, a second flattening roller 440, and a third flattening roller 450, are arranged between the second conveying area 400 and the cutting mechanism 501 along the first direction X. The three flattening rollers flatten the double-layer sheet 30 before the double-layer sheet 30 enters the cutting mechanism 501 along the first direction X, so that the cutting mechanism 501 can better cut the double-layer sheet 30.
[0127] The specific number of flattening rollers is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application. For example, in other possible implementations, the number of flattening rollers may be five, six, seven, or more.
[0128] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, a first flattening roller 430, a second flattening roller 440 and a third flattening roller 450 extending along the second direction Y are provided, and the first flattening roller 430, the second flattening roller 440 and the third flattening roller 450 are all fixed on the fifth bracket 510, and the first flattening roller 430, the second flattening roller 440 and the third flattening roller 450 are located between the cutting mechanism 501 and the second conveying area 400 along the first direction X.
[0129] For example, reference Fig.10a In the embodiment of the present application, the relative positions of the first flattening roller 430, the second flattening roller 440 and the third flattening roller 450 are roughly triangular. Along the third direction Z, the first flattening roller 430 is located above the second flattening roller 440, and along the first direction X, the third flattening roller 450 is located on the side of the first flattening roller 430 and the second flattening roller 440 facing the cutting mechanism 501. The double-layer sheet 30 is wound around the first flattening roller 430, the second flattening roller 440 and the third flattening roller 450 in sequence.
[0130] However, the present invention is not limited to this. The embodiment of the present application does not impose any specific restrictions on the positional relationship between the first flattening roller 430, the second flattening roller 440 and the third flattening roller 450, as long as the double-layer sheet 30 can be flattened before entering the cutting station 500 along the first direction X.
[0131] refer to Figures 8 to 10a Combined with Figure 6 The cutting mechanism 501 includes: a knife fixing rod 520 and thirteen knives 530. The knife fixing rod 520 is fixed to the fifth bracket 510 and extends along the second direction Y. The thirteen knives 530 are fixed to the knife fixing rod 520 at intervals along the second direction Y, and each knife 530 cuts the double-layer sheet 30 passing through the knife 530 along the first direction X. During the cutting process, the position of the knife 530 remains fixed, and the double-layer sheet 30 moves relative to the knife 530 along the conveying direction X1 to be cut.
[0132] The number of the knives 530 on the knife fixing rod 520 is not specifically limited in the present embodiment, and can be adjusted according to the actual width of the double-layer sheet 30 and the required width of the double-layer sheet 30. For example, in other possible implementations, the number of the knives 530 can also be twelve, fourteen, fifteen, or more.
[0133] Specifically, the blade 531 of each cutter 530 is arranged downward along the third direction Z to cut the double-layer sheet 30 passing through the blade 531 of the cutter 530 along the first direction X. Fig.10a As shown, after the double-layer sheet 30 is cut along the first direction X by a plurality of blades 531 , a plurality of double-layer strips 40 arranged along the second direction Y are formed.
[0134] The specific structure of the separation station 600 is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0135] Continue to refer Figures 8 to 10b Combined with Figure 6 The separation station 600 has a separation mechanism 601, and the separation mechanism 601 is fixed to the fifth bracket 510. In the embodiment of the present application, the separation mechanism 601 is specifically a differential roller set, but the embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the specific form of the separation mechanism 601. For example, in other possible implementations, the separation mechanism 601 can be a cutting tool, laser cutting, etc., as long as it can separate the two adjacent annular tensioning members 20 on the double-layer strip 40 along the short weld 33a.
[0136] Exemplarily, the separation mechanism 601 in the embodiment of the present application includes: a first differential assembly 610 and a second differential assembly 620. Along the first direction X, the second differential assembly 620 is spaced apart from the first differential assembly 610, and a plurality of double-layer strips 40 are transmitted from the first differential assembly 610 to the second differential assembly 620 along the transmission direction X1.
[0137] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the transmission speed of the first differential assembly 610 is smaller than that of the second differential assembly 620; however, in other possible implementations, for example, during the separation process, the first differential assembly 610 is stationary, that is, the transmission speed is 0, and the second differential assembly 620 transmits along the transmission direction X1.
[0138] Specifically, Figure 6 Taking the double-layer strip 40 as an example, the double-layer strip 40 includes adjacent annular tension members 20a and annular tension members 20b, and the connection between the annular tension members 20a and the annular tension members 20b is a short weld 33a. The first differential assembly 610 is used to receive and transmit multiple double-layer strips 40 to the second differential assembly 620. The first differential assembly 610 can clamp the annular tension members 20b along the third direction Z, and the second differential assembly 620 can clamp the annular tension members 20b of multiple double-layer strips 40 along the third direction Z. The short weld 33a is located between the second differential assembly 620 and the first differential assembly 610 along the first direction X.
[0139] Furthermore, the transmission speed of the second differential assembly 620 is greater than that of the first differential assembly 610. Therefore, during the transmission process, the annular tensioning member 20a and the annular tensioning member 20b of the double-layer strip 40 will be broken along the short weld 33a to form a plurality of Figure 7 A separate annular tensioning member 20 is shown.
[0140] Continue to refer Figures 8 to 10b In a possible implementation, the first differential assembly 610 includes: a first differential roller 611 , a first connecting roller 615 , and a plurality of first belts 617 , and a second differential roller 612 , a second connecting roller 616 , and a plurality of second belts 618 .
[0141] Exemplarily, the first connecting roller 615 extends along the second direction Y (i.e., the length direction of the first connecting roller 615), and is spaced apart from the first differential roller 611 along the first direction X, and the first differential roller 611 is located between the cutter 530 and the first connecting roller 615 along the first direction X. A plurality of first belts 617 are wound around the surfaces of the first differential roller 611 and the first connecting roller 615, and the first differential roller 611 and the first connecting roller 615 are driven by the plurality of first belts 617. The plurality of first belts 617 are spaced apart along the second direction Y, and the number of the first belts 617 is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application and can be adjusted according to actual needs.
[0142] Exemplarily, the second connecting roller 616 extends along the second direction Y (i.e., the length direction of the second connecting roller 616), and is spaced apart from the second differential roller 612 along the first direction X. A plurality of second belts 618 are wound around the surfaces of the second differential roller 612 and the second connecting roller 616, and the second differential roller 612 and the second connecting roller 616 are driven by the plurality of second belts 618. The second connecting roller 616 is spaced apart from the first connecting roller 615 along the third direction Z, and is located below the first connecting roller 615. The plurality of second belts 618 are spaced apart along the second direction Y, and the number of the second belts 618 is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application, and can be adjusted according to actual needs.
[0143] The second differential roller 612 is spaced apart from the first differential roller 611 along the third direction Z and is located below the first differential roller 611. The second differential roller 612 and the first differential roller 611 can clamp an annular tensioning member (e.g. Figure 6 The annular tensioning member 20b shown in FIG.
[0144] Further, Fig.10a Taking the perspective shown as an example, the first differential roller 611 rotates in the counterclockwise direction and can drive the first belt 617 to transmit in the counterclockwise direction, and the second differential roller 612 can rotate in the clockwise direction and can drive the second belt 618 to transmit in the clockwise direction.
[0145] Further, along the third direction Z, the plurality of first belts 617 and the plurality of second belts 618 form a slow channel 630, and the slow channel 630 allows the plurality of double-layer strips 40 to pass through, and drives the plurality of double-layer strips 40 to move to the second differential assembly 620 along the first direction X. The plurality of first belts 617 and the plurality of second belts 618 can effectively prevent the double-layer strips 40 from being rolled up when passing through the first differential roller 611 and the second differential roller 612.
[0146] Specifically, since the first differential roller 611 and the second differential roller 612 are both cylinders, the double-layer strip material 40 will roll up after being clamped and conveyed along the third direction Z by the first differential roller 611 and the second differential roller 612. After the double-layer strip material 40 is rolled up, the first belt 617 and the second belt 618 can abut against the double-layer strip material 40 along the third direction Z so that the double-layer strip material 40 continues to be located in the slow channel 630.
[0147] For example, continue to refer to Figures 8 to 10a , along the second direction Y, one end of the second differential roller 612 is connected to the slow motor 619, and the other end is provided with a first transmission tooth 613, and the first transmission tooth 613 rotates synchronously with the second differential roller 612. Along the second direction Y, one end of the first differential roller 611 is provided with a second transmission tooth 614, and the second transmission tooth 614 rotates synchronously with the first differential roller 611. Among them, the first transmission tooth 613 is meshed with the second transmission tooth 614.
[0148] Specifically, the slow motor 619 drives the second differential roller 612 to rotate in a clockwise direction ( Fig.10a The second belt 618 rotates in a clockwise direction ( Fig.10a At the same time, the second differential roller 612 drives the second transmission gear 614 and the first differential roller 611 in the counterclockwise direction ( Fig.10a The double-layer strip 40 located in the slow channel 630 is rotated to eventually move toward the second differential assembly 620 along the conveying direction X1.
[0149] Continue to refer Figures 8 to 10a The second differential assembly 620 includes: two third differential rollers 621 and a first conveyor belt 623 , and two fourth differential rollers 622 and a second conveyor belt 624 .
[0150] For example, Fig.10a As shown, along the first direction X, the third differential roller 621a and the third differential roller 621b are arranged at intervals, and the third differential roller 621a is located between the first connecting roller 615 and the third differential roller 621b along the first direction X. The first conveyor belt 623 is wound around the surfaces of the third differential roller 621a and the third differential roller 621b, and the third differential roller 621a and the third differential roller 621b are driven by the first conveyor belt 623.
[0151] For example, continue to refer to Fig.10a, along the first direction X, the fourth differential roller 622a and the fourth differential roller 622b are arranged at intervals, and the fourth differential roller 622a is located between the second connecting roller 616 and the fourth differential roller 622b along the first direction X. Along the third direction Z, the third differential roller 621a close to the first differential assembly 610 is located above the fourth differential roller 622a close to the first differential assembly 610. The second conveyor belt 624 is wound around the surfaces of the fourth differential roller 622a and the fourth differential roller 622b, and the fourth differential roller 622a and the fourth differential roller 622b are driven by the second conveyor belt 624.
[0152] For example, the first conveyor belt 623 and the second conveyor belt 624 can clamp an annular tension member (eg, Figure 6 The annular tensioning member 20a is shown.
[0153] Further, Fig.10a Taking the perspective shown in FIG. 1 as an example, the third differential roller 621a rotates in the counterclockwise direction and can drive the first conveyor belt 623 to transmit in the counterclockwise direction, and the fourth differential roller 622a rotates in the clockwise direction and can drive the second conveyor belt 624 to transmit in the clockwise direction. Along the third direction Z, the first conveyor belt 623 and the second conveyor belt 624 form a fast channel 640. The fast channel 640 (i.e., the first conveyor belt 623 and the second conveyor belt 624) can clamp an annular tensioning member (e.g., the first conveyor belt 623 and the second conveyor belt 624) in the double-layer strip 40 along the third direction Z. Figure 6 The annular tension member 20a shown in the figure is used for conveying the annular tension member 20a separated from the double-layer strip 40 along the conveying direction X1.
[0154] For example, continue to refer to Figures 8 to 10a , along the second direction Y, one end of the fourth differential roller 622a is connected to the fast motor 627, and the other end is provided with a third transmission tooth 625, and the third transmission tooth 625 rotates synchronously with the fourth differential roller 622a. Along the second direction Y, one end of the third differential roller 621a is provided with a fourth transmission tooth 626, and the fourth transmission tooth 626 rotates synchronously with the third differential roller 621a. Among them, the third transmission tooth 625 is meshed with the fourth transmission tooth 626.
[0155] Specifically, the fast motor 627 drives the fourth differential roller 622a to rotate in the clockwise direction ( Fig.10a The second conveyor belt 624 rotates in a clockwise direction ( Fig.10a At the same time, the third transmission gear 625 drives the fourth transmission gear 626 and the third differential roller 622b to rotate in the counterclockwise direction ( Fig.10a The first conveyor belt 623 rotates in a counterclockwise direction ( Fig.10aThe annular tensioning member 20a of the double-layer strip 40 clamped by the fast channel 640 is finally moved along the conveying direction X1.
[0156] by Figure 6 As an example, the double-layer strip 40 shown in FIG. Figures 8 to 10b When the double-layer strip 40 moves to the separation station 600 along the first direction X, the annular tension member 20a is clamped by the first differential roller 611 and the second differential roller 612, and the annular tension member 20b is clamped by the fast channel 640 (i.e., the first conveyor belt 623 and the second conveyor belt 624), and along the first direction X, the short weld 33a is located between the annular tension member 20a and the annular tension member 20b. At the same time, since the rotation speed of the first differential roller 611 and the second differential roller 612 is lower than the rotation speed of the third differential roller 621a and the fourth differential roller 622a, the double-layer strip 40 will be torn along the short weld 33a to form a Figure 7 A separate annular tensioning member 20 is shown.
[0157] The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the spacing between the third differential roller 621a and the third differential roller 621b along the first direction X, and the spacing between the fourth differential roller 622a and the fourth differential roller 622b along the first direction X. By way of example, in the embodiment of the present application, along the first direction X, the spacing between the fourth differential roller 622a and the fourth differential roller 622b is longer than the spacing between the third differential roller 621a and the third differential roller 621b.
[0158] The specific structure of the material receiving station 700 is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0159] In some possible implementations, reference Fig.11 Combined with Figures 8 to 10a The receiving station 700 includes: an intermediate conveying assembly 710, a receiving conveying assembly 720, and a receiving robot 730. When the annular tension member production equipment is working, the intermediate conveying assembly 710 conveys the annular tension member 20 from the second differential assembly 620 to the receiving conveying assembly 720, and then the receiving robot 730 moves the multiple annular tension members 20 located on the receiving conveying assembly 720 to the stacking place 740.
[0160] refer to Fig.11 and Fig.12 Combined with Figure 7 and 8 Specifically, along the first direction X, the intermediate conveying assembly 710 is arranged on the side of the second differential assembly 620 away from the first differential assembly 610, and the receiving conveying assembly 720 is arranged on the side of the intermediate conveying assembly 710 away from the second differential assembly 620, that is, the intermediate conveying assembly 710 is located between the second differential assembly 620 and the receiving conveying assembly 720 along the first direction X.
[0161] The embodiment of the present application does not impose any specific restrictions on the specific forms of the intermediate conveying component 710 and the receiving conveying component 720. For example, in the embodiment of the present application, the intermediate conveying component 710 and the receiving conveying component 720 are both conveyor belts.
[0162] For example, along the third direction Z, the height of the intermediate transmission assembly 710 is lower than the second transmission belt 624 ( Fig.10a ), the height of the receiving conveying assembly 720 is lower than the height of the intermediate conveying assembly 710. Since the annular tensioning member 20 is formed by cutting a double-layer sheet 30, the annular tensioning member 20 has a certain thickness.
[0163] Specifically, when the annular tensioning member 20 is transferred from the second conveyor belt 624 of the second differential assembly 620 to the intermediate conveying assembly 710, since the height of the intermediate conveying assembly 710 is lower than the second differential assembly 620, the front end 23 of the annular tensioning member 20 first falls and abuts against the intermediate conveying assembly 710, and then driven by the intermediate conveying assembly 710, the rear end 24 detaches from the second conveyor belt 624 and falls onto the intermediate conveying assembly 710.
[0164] Exemplarily, during the process of the annular tensioning member 20 being transferred from the intermediate conveying component 710 to the receiving conveying component 720, since the height of the receiving conveying component 720 is lower than that of the intermediate conveying component 710, the front end 23 of the annular tensioning member 20 first falls and abuts against the receiving conveying component 720, and then, driven by the receiving conveying component 720, the rear end 24 detaches from the intermediate conveying component 710 and falls onto the receiving conveying component 720.
[0165] Illustratively, in the embodiment of the present application, a first partition 750 is arranged between the second conveyor belt 624 and the intermediate conveyor assembly 710, and a second partition 760 is arranged between the intermediate conveyor assembly 710 and the receiving material conveying assembly 720. The first partition 750 can effectively prevent the annular tensioning member 20 from falling into the gap between the second conveyor belt 624 and the intermediate conveyor assembly 710, and the second partition 760 can effectively prevent the annular tensioning member 20 from falling into the gap between the intermediate conveyor assembly 710 and the receiving material conveying assembly 720.
[0166] Exemplarily, the intermediate transmission assembly 710 is provided with a sensor 711, and the sensor 711 is used to detect whether the annular tensioning member 20 passes. Specifically, the intermediate transmission assembly 710 is provided with a crossbar 712, and the sensor 711 is fixed at the middle position of the crossbar 712 along the second direction Y.
[0167] The embodiment of the present application does not impose any specific limitation on the type of sensor 711. For example, in some possible implementations, the sensor 711 is a displacement sensor, a quantity sensor, or other types. That is, the sensor 711 can also detect characteristics such as the number and the moving distance of the annular tensioning members 20 passing through the sensor 711.
[0168] In the embodiment of the present application, when the intermediate conveying assembly 710 conveys the plurality of annular tensioning members 20 to the receiving conveying assembly 720 along the conveying direction X1, each time the sensor 711 detects that an annular tensioning member 20 has passed, the receiving conveying assembly 720 transmits a preset distance along the conveying direction X1. In the embodiment of the present application, the preset distance is the length of the annular tensioning member 20 along the first direction X. However, the embodiment of the present application does not limit the preset distance. For example, in other possible embodiments, the preset distance is greater than the length of the annular tensioning member 20 along the first direction X.
[0169] For example, Fig.12 For example, the annular tensioning member 20c, the annular tensioning member 20d, the annular tensioning member 20e and the annular tensioning member 20f are arranged in sequence along the conveying direction X1, and the annular tensioning member 20c and the annular tensioning member 20d are located on the receiving conveying assembly 720, a part of the annular tensioning member 20e is located on the receiving conveying assembly 720, and the other part is located on the intermediate conveying assembly 710, and the annular tensioning member 20f is located on the intermediate conveying assembly 710. When the sensor 711 detects that the annular tensioning member 20f passes, the receiving conveying assembly 720 drives the annular tensioning member 20c, the annular tensioning member 20d and the annular tensioning member 20e to move a preset distance along the first direction X, so that the annular tensioning member 20d moves to the position of the original annular tensioning member 20c, and the annular tensioning member 20e moves to the position of the original annular tensioning member 20d, so as to leave a space for the following annular tensioning member 20f. Finally, the receiving conveying component 720 is presented as follows Figure 7 The multiple annular tensioning members 20 shown in a rectangular array facilitate the material collection robot 730 to collect multiple annular tensioning members 20 at the same time, thereby improving efficiency.
[0170] In some possible implementations, reference Fig.13 and Fig.14 Combined with Fig.11 The material receiving robot 730 includes: a robotic arm 731 disposed on one side of the material receiving conveying assembly 720, and a suction cup assembly 732 disposed at the end of the robotic arm 731. The robotic arm 731 can drive the suction cup assembly 732 to suck up multiple annular tensioning members 20 located on the material receiving conveying assembly 720 and transfer them to the material stacking location 740 for stacking.
[0171] Exemplarily, three harness plates 7311 are further provided on the robotic arm 731 , and the harness plates 7311 are used to fix the cables on the robotic arm 731 .
[0172] Specifically, the suction cup assembly 732 includes: a fixed frame 733, and eleven suction plates 7321 fixed to the fixed frame 733. Along the height direction W of the suction cup assembly 732, a negative pressure interface 7322 and a positive pressure interface 7323 are provided at the top of each suction plate 7321, and the positive pressure interface 7323 and the negative pressure interface 7322 are respectively connected to an air pump (not shown) through an air pipe (not shown in the figure). Along the height direction W of the suction cup assembly 732, a plurality of suction ports 7320 are provided at the bottom of each suction plate 7321, and each suction port 7320 is respectively connected to the negative pressure interface 7322 and the positive pressure interface 7323. Negative pressure (i.e., suction) can be generated at the suction port 7320 through the negative pressure interface 7322 to suck the annular tensioning member 20. Positive pressure (i.e., blowing) can be generated at the suction port 7320 through the positive pressure interface 7323 to achieve rapid unloading.
[0173] Exemplarily, the positive pressure interface 7323 and the negative pressure interface 7322 are respectively arranged at intervals along the length direction V of the suction plate 7321 , and are located at the top of the suction plate 7321 along the height direction W of the suction cup assembly 732 .
[0174] The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the number of suction plates 7321. For example, in other possible implementations, the number of suction plates 7321 may be ten, twelve, thirteen, or one.
[0175] Preferably, each suction plate 7321 is rectangular, and along the width direction U of the suction plate 7321, eleven suction plates 7321 are arranged at intervals and fixed on the fixing frame 733, so that the suction cup assembly 732 has a substantially rectangular structure, which is convenient for suction. Figure 7 The plurality of annular tension members 20 shown in a rectangular array improves efficiency. It should be noted that Figure 7 The multiple annular tensioning members 20 are for illustration only and do not represent the number of annular tensioning members 20 that can be sucked by the suction cup assembly 732 at one time during the actual production process.
[0176] In some possible implementations, an elastic buffer portion 7331 is further provided between each suction plate 7321 and the fixing frame 733. When the mechanical arm 731 drives the suction cup assembly 732 to press down along the vertical direction Z to suck the annular tensioning member 20, the elastic buffer portion 7331 can effectively reduce the hard impact on the suction plate 7321, protect the suction plate 7321 from damage, and extend the service life.
[0177] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the elastic buffer portion 7331 is a spring, one end of the spring abuts against the suction plate 7321 , and the other end of the spring abuts against the fixing frame 733 .
[0178] In summary, the annular tension member production equipment provided in the embodiment of the present application can realize the automated production of the annular tension member 20, can effectively improve the production efficiency of the annular tension member, reduce labor costs, and is conducive to improving economic benefits.
