[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the utility model clearer, a detailed description is given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the utility model. However, the utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without violating the connotation of the utility model. Therefore, the utility model is not limited by the specific implementation disclosed below.

[0023] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be a central element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to an element or there may be a central element at the same time. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only implementation method.

[0024] See also Figure 1-4 The present embodiment discloses an umbrella head rotating machine, including an electric control module, a housing 1, a rotating head 3 and a rotating drive member, which can replace the existing manual operation method of locking the umbrella handle a, improve operation efficiency, reduce labor intensity, and improve product quality consistency.

[0025] Specifically, the shell 1 serves as the main load-bearing protection structure, with a skeleton inside and a panel package outside to form a box structure. The top of the shell 1 is a horizontal end surface, and the top surface and the front corner are cut to form an inclined end surface. A switch panel 5 is provided on the inclined end surface, and a switch structure electrically connected to the electric control module and the rotating drive component is provided on the switch panel 5. The switch structure in this embodiment is a button, and its function is to control the start and stop and rotation direction of the rotating drive component.

[0026] The rotary driving component is fixedly arranged inside the shell 1, and its transmission output end extends to the top of the shell 1. The rotary driving component is specifically a reduction motor 4, which is connected to the external mains power through a cable. By selecting the model according to the operation requirements and setting the threshold parameters, it can output a rotational driving force of appropriate intensity, thereby driving the rotary head 3 to rotate.

[0027] The rotating head 3 is arranged on the top of the shell 1 and is fixedly connected to the transmission output end of the motor 4. A tooling groove adapted to the outer contour of the umbrella handle a is provided on the top of the rotating head 3. After the umbrella handle a pre-connected with the umbrella ribs is inserted into the tooling groove, the rotating drive component can drive the rotating head 3 to drive the umbrella handle a to rotate synchronously, thereby forming an automatic tightening mechanism for the umbrella handle a.

[0028] Furthermore, the rotating head 3 will rotate at high speed during operation. In order to improve the safety of operation and prevent operational errors or accidental touches, a protective cover 2 is provided on the top of the shell 1. The protective cover 2 is a cylindrical structure mounted on the outside of the rotating head 3. This structure places the rotating head 3 inside for isolation, greatly reducing safety hazards.

[0029] In addition, the bottom of the shield 2 is detachably connected to the shell 1 , specifically, it is fixed by bolts, which enables the shield 2 to be disassembled and assembled, facilitating subsequent maintenance operations on the rotating head 3 .

[0030] The shield 2 in this embodiment is made of metal. In other embodiments, transparent plastic or fiberglass can be used to facilitate observation of the internal situation. If impurities run into the bottom of the rotating head 3, they can be discovered in time.

[0031] In order to optimize the working environment of the motor 4 and avoid negative feedback of high temperature inside the shell 1 to the motor 4 after long-term operation, a heat dissipation hole 7 is provided on the side of the shell 1. The heat dissipation hole 7 is a hollow structure that runs through the shell 1 and can achieve ventilation and heat dissipation effects.

[0032] In order to facilitate the transportation and movement of the device, a handle structure is provided on the housing 1 for easy transportation and lifting. In this embodiment, the handle structure has embedded handles 6 which are arranged on the front and rear sides of the housing 1.

[0033] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 The rotating head 3 includes a base 31 of a cylindrical structure, the axial direction of the base 31 is vertically arranged, and a mounting hole 34 is longitudinally penetrated through the base 31 at the axial center of the base 31, and the mounting hole 34 is used to penetrate a fastener (a bolt is used in this embodiment, and a longitudinal limiting structure is formed after assembly), constituting a connection structure between the rotating head 3 and the transmission output end of the rotating driving member, and four extension claws 32 are centrally symmetrically arranged on the top of the base 31, and an arc-shaped concave surface 33 is provided on the inner side wall of the extension claw 32, and the tooling groove is formed on the inner side of each arc-shaped concave surface 33, which is used to accommodate and abut the outer contour of the umbrella handle a.

[0034] Furthermore, the tooling groove is a structure that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, so that the longitudinal section profile of the tooling groove is a "V"-shaped slot structure. This structure can improve the processing adaptability of the equipment. During actual operation, the umbrella handle a with a larger outer contour specification abuts against the arc-shaped concave surface 33 in the upper area of ​​the tooling groove, and the umbrella handle a with a smaller outer contour specification abuts against the arc-shaped groove in the lower area of ​​the tooling groove. In this way, the processing requirements of umbrella handles a of various specifications and sizes can be met.

[0035] In the specific implementation process, the umbrella handle a is pre-connected with the umbrella rib manually, specifically, the threaded connection between the two is sleeved, and the umbrella handle a is placed in the lower position from top to bottom into the tooling groove until the outer contour of the umbrella handle a is abutted and fixed with the arc-shaped concave surface 33, and the motor 4 is started to control the rotating head 3 to rotate and drive the umbrella handle a to rotate. In this process, the umbrella rib located in the upper position is manually grasped until the umbrella handle a is tightened. Alternatively, the umbrella handle a can be placed in the tooling groove with the connection side facing upward, and then the umbrella rib is manually inserted into the threaded hole at the connection of the umbrella handle a from top to bottom, and the motor 4 is started to control the rotating head 3 to rotate and drive the umbrella handle a to rotate. In this process, the umbrella rib located in the upper position is manually grasped until the umbrella handle a is tightened.

[0036] It should be noted that the rotating head 3 is made of materials such as plastic, PU, ​​fiberglass, etc., which can provide appropriate flexible contact when abutting, which is conducive to increasing friction, so that the rotation process will not easily slip and avoid excessive rigid contact to wear the appearance of the umbrella handle a. In other embodiments, the rotating head 3 can be set to use the above-mentioned flexible material as a wrapping layer, which can be replaced after a period of use to reduce maintenance costs.

[0037] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments may still be modified, or some of the technical features may be replaced by equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
