[0036] The utility model is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0037] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the utility model is a cotton rolling machine for cotton swab production, comprising a loading device 1, a unloading device 2 spaced apart from the loading device 1, and a feeding device 3 movably arranged between the loading device 1 and the unloading device 2, the feeding device 3 comprising a transfer component 31 and a pressing component 32 used in conjunction with the transfer component 31, the transfer component 31 moves back and forth between the loading device 1 and the unloading device 2, so that the transfer component 31 picks up the cotton swab from the loading device 1 and transfers the cotton swab to the unloading device 2, and the pressing component 32 presses and flattens the cotton swab placed on the unloading device 2.

[0038] During operation, the cotton swabs produced by the external cotton rolling machine are transported through the feeding device 1. Since the transfer component 31 can move back and forth between the feeding device 1 and the unloading device 2, the transfer component 31 is used to pick up the cotton swabs from the feeding device 1 and transfer the cotton swabs to the unloading device 2. At the same time, the pressing component 32 moves downward and presses and flattens the cotton swabs placed on the unloading device 2. After the pressing and flattening operation of the pressing component 32, the cotton swabs can be kept neatly placed in the unloading device 2. This repeated cycle makes the cotton swabs stacked neatly in layers from bottom to top, which makes it convenient for the unloading device 2 to push the neatly stacked cotton swabs for packaging and shipment. The utility model has a compact structure and a reasonable design, realizes automatic feeding and unloading operations of cotton swabs, has a high degree of automation, reduces labor costs, and improves production efficiency and production quality.

[0039] The transfer assembly 31 of this embodiment includes a ball screw pair 311, a servo motor 312 driven by the ball screw pair 311, a slide 313 arranged at the output end of the ball screw pair 311, a lifting cylinder 314 arranged on the slide 313, and an air storage chamber 315 arranged at the output end of the lifting cylinder 314, the air storage chamber 315 is provided with a suction hole 316, and the suction hole 316 is provided with a plurality of holes, which are arranged in a rectangular array and are arranged through the air storage chamber 315. Specifically, the servo motor 312 is intelligently controlled by the control system to achieve precise control of the operating speed of the servo motor 312. The servo motor 312 drives the slide 313 to move horizontally through the ball screw pair 311, thereby driving the lifting cylinder 314 set on the slide 313 to move horizontally together, so as to drive the air storage chamber 315 to move back and forth between the loading device 1 and the unloading device 2. Then the lifting cylinder 314 drives the air storage chamber 315 to approach the loading device 1. Since the multiple suction holes 316 are arranged in a rectangular array and are arranged through the air storage chamber 315, when the external air pump is started, the multiple suction holes 316 absorb and pick up multiple cotton swabs from the loading device 1, and then cooperate with the slide 313 to drive the lifting cylinder 314 to the unloading device 2. When the external air pump is turned off, the multiple cotton swabs are accurately placed in the unloading device 2, and the cotton swab transfer efficiency is high.

[0040] The air storage chamber 315 of this embodiment is provided with a switch 317, and the switch 317 is provided in plurality, and the plurality of switch 317 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the air storage chamber 315, and the switch 317 is used to regulate the connection and disconnection between the air storage chamber 315 and the external air pump. Specifically, as a preferred embodiment, six switch 317 are provided, and the six switch 317 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the air storage chamber 315, and six external air pumps are used in conjunction, and the six switch 317 corresponds to the six external air pumps one by one, and the connection and disconnection between the air storage chamber 315 and the external air pump is regulated by the switch 317, so that the internal air of the air storage chamber 315 is completely discharged in a short time, thereby improving the adsorption performance of the suction hole 316, and the feeding operation is stable and reliable.

[0041] The pressing assembly 32 of this embodiment includes a pressing cylinder 321, a mounting seat 322 arranged at the output end of the pressing cylinder 321, and pressing plates 323 arranged on both sides of the mounting seat 322. The distance between the two pressing plates 323 is greater than the width of the air storage cavity 315, and the pressing plates 323 are recessed with avoidance grooves 324. Specifically, the pressing cylinder 321 drives the pressing plate 323 to move downward and closer to or upward and away from the unloading device 2 through the mounting seat 322. When the air storage chamber 315 moves to the unloading device 2, since the spacing between the two pressing plates 323 is greater than the width of the air storage chamber 315, the air storage chamber 315 can protrude between the two pressing plates 323, ensuring that the feeding work of the air storage chamber 315 and the pressing work of the pressing plate 323 do not affect or interfere with each other. The structural design is ingenious and reasonable. When the pressing cylinder 321 drives the pressing plate 323 to move downward and closer to the unloading device 2, the avoidance groove 324 can enable the pressing plate 323 to avoid the position of the unloading device 2 well, thereby avoiding deformation and damage caused by friction and collision between the pressing plate 323 and the unloading device 2, thereby ensuring safe and stable operation.

[0042] The unloading device 2 of this embodiment includes a first workbench 21, a second workbench 22 arranged opposite to the first workbench 21, a first pushing assembly 23 and a second pushing assembly 24 arranged on the first workbench 21, a direct-drive module 25 arranged on the second workbench 22, and a supporting assembly 26 arranged at the output end of the direct-drive module 25. The second workbench 22 is provided with a discharge port 27. The direct-drive module 25 drives the supporting assembly 26 to move back and forth between the first pushing assembly 23 and the second pushing assembly 24, so that the first pushing assembly 23 pushes the cotton swab to the supporting assembly 26, and the second pushing assembly 24 pushes the cotton swab from the supporting assembly 26 to the discharge port 27. Specifically, during operation, the cotton swab is sucked by the transfer component 31 and placed in the first pushing component 23, so that the first pushing component 23 pushes the cotton swab to the carrying component 26, and the direct drive module 25 drives the carrying component 26 to move back and forth between the first pushing component 23 and the second pushing component 24. The carrying component 26 is driven to the position of the discharge port 27 by the direct drive module 25, and a packaging bag is put on the discharge port 27 to facilitate the second pushing component 24 to push the cotton swab from the carrying component 26 to the discharge port 27, thereby completing the automated discharging and packaging of the cotton swabs with high discharging efficiency.

[0043] The bearing component 26 of this embodiment includes a transfer table 261, a first positioning cylinder 262 and a second positioning cylinder 263 arranged on one side of the transfer table 261, and a third positioning cylinder 264 and a fourth positioning cylinder 265 arranged on the other side of the transfer table 261. The first positioning cylinder 262 and the third positioning cylinder 264 are symmetrically arranged about the center line of the transfer table 261. The output end of the first positioning cylinder 262 is drivingly connected to a first positioning plate 266. The output end of the second positioning cylinder 263 is drivingly connected to a second positioning plate 267. The moving direction of the first positioning plate 266 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the second positioning plate 267. The output end of the third positioning cylinder 264 is drivingly connected to a third positioning plate 268. The output end of the fourth positioning cylinder 265 is drivingly connected to a fourth positioning plate 269. The moving direction of the third positioning plate 268 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the fourth positioning plate 269. Specifically, the first positioning cylinder 262 and the third positioning cylinder 264 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the transfer table 261 from left to right. The second positioning cylinder 263 is located below the first positioning cylinder 262. The fourth positioning cylinder 265 is located below the third positioning cylinder 264. Two piles of cotton swabs are respectively pushed by the first feeding component 23 and enter between the first positioning cylinder 262 and the second positioning cylinder 263, and between the third positioning cylinder 264 and the fourth positioning cylinder 265. Since the moving direction of the first positioning plate 266 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the second positioning plate 267, the first positioning plate 266 abuts and presses the upper surface of a pile of cotton swabs from top to bottom, and the second positioning plate 267 abuts and presses the outer side surface of a pile of cotton swabs from right to left. Since the moving direction of the third positioning plate 268 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the fourth positioning plate 269, the third positioning plate 268 abuts and presses the upper surface of the other pile of cotton swabs from top to bottom, and the fourth positioning plate 269 abuts and presses the outer side surface of the other pile of cotton swabs from left to right. Then, with the abutting and pressing effects of the side wall and the bottom wall of the transfer table 261 on the two piles of cotton swabs, the multi-directional pressing and positioning effects on the two piles of cotton swabs are realized simultaneously, ensuring that the two piles of cotton swabs are prevented from being scattered randomly during the transfer process.

[0044] The transfer table 261 of this embodiment has a "丄" - shaped structure. The outer walls of the transfer table 261 are respectively provided with a first mounting plate 2610 and a second mounting plate 2611. A first mounting screw 2612 is provided at the connection between the first mounting plate 2610 and the transfer table 261. A second mounting screw 2613 is provided at the connection between the second mounting plate 2611 and the transfer table 261. Specifically, the transfer table 261 has a "丄" - shaped structure, with balanced left - right force and stable and reliable structural strength. The first mounting plate 2610 is fixedly connected to one side of the transfer table 261 through the first mounting screw 2612, and the second mounting plate 2611 is fixedly connected to the other side of the transfer table 261 through the second mounting screw 2613. The connection is stable and reliable, facilitating storage and transportation.

[0045] In this embodiment, the first mounting plate 2610 and the second mounting plate 2611 are both L-shaped structures, a first connecting screw 2614 is provided at the connection between the first positioning cylinder 262 and the first mounting plate 2610, and a second connecting screw 2615 is provided at the connection between the third positioning cylinder 264 and the second mounting plate 2611. Specifically, the first mounting plate 2610 and the second mounting plate 2611 are both L-shaped structures, which have good structural stability and are convenient for installation and connection. The first positioning cylinder 262 is fixedly connected to the first mounting plate 2610 by the first connecting screw 2614, and the third positioning cylinder 264 is fixedly connected to the second mounting plate 2611 by the second connecting screw 2615, which is easy and stable to install.

[0046] The first pusher assembly 23 and the second pusher assembly 24 of this embodiment have the same structure. The first pusher assembly 23 includes a guide frame 231, a pusher block 232 disposed on the guide frame 231, and a pusher cylinder 233 drivingly connected to the pusher block 232. The pusher cylinder 233 drives the pusher block 232 to move along the length direction of the guide frame 231. Specifically, two first pusher assemblies 23 are provided, so that two first pusher assemblies 23 can push two piles of cotton swabs at the same time. Two second pusher assemblies 24 are provided, so that two second pusher assemblies 24 can push two piles of cotton swabs at the same time. The first pusher assembly 23 and the second pusher assembly 24 have the same structure. The pusher cylinder 233 drives the pusher block 232 to move along the length direction of the guide frame 231, thereby pushing the cotton swabs to the bearing assembly 26 and to the discharge port 27, and the pushing efficiency is high.

[0047] The feeding device 1 of this embodiment includes a machine base 11, a conveyor belt 12 arranged on the machine base 11, a support frame 13 arranged on the machine base 11, and a pressing plate 14 arranged on the support frame 13, wherein the pressing plate 14 is used to press against the upper surface of the cotton swab. Specifically, the cotton swabs produced by the cotton rolling machine are transported by the conveyor belt 12, the support frame 13 is located above the conveyor belt 12, and the pressing plate 14 is installed on the support frame 13. The pressing plate 14 is used to press against the upper surface of the cotton swab, which effectively prevents the cotton swabs from scattering and falling due to jumping during transportation, thereby improving the stability of the feeding work.
