DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0014] like Figure 1-3 As shown: a blanking auxiliary device for a branding machine, comprising a support platform 1, the top middle part of the support platform 1 is open, a chain conveyor 2 is installed inside the opening of the support platform 1, short columns are fixedly connected to the chain of the chain conveyor 2 at equal intervals, a pressure plate 3 is provided in the gap in the top middle part of the chain conveyor 2, the pressure plate 3 is fixedly connected to the support platform 1, a fixing frame 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the support platform 1, a branding machine 5 is fixedly installed on the inner top wall of the fixing frame 4, the branding machine 5 is located above the pressure plate 3, and a blanking mechanism is provided on the rear side of the fixing frame 4, and the blanking mechanism is placed on the top of the support platform 1;

[0015] The unloading mechanism includes two symmetrically distributed support plates 6, which are respectively located on the left and right sides of the chain conveyor 2. The support plates 6 are L-shaped and placed on the top of the support platform 1. Two cross plates 7 are provided between the front side walls and the rear side walls of the two support plates 6. The two cross plates 7 on the same side are distributed up and down. The left and right ends of the front side walls of the cross plates 7 are provided with sliding holes 8, and the inner sides of the sliding holes 8 are inserted with locking bolts 9. The locking bolts 9 are threadedly connected with the support plates 6, and the outer ends of the locking bolts 9 abut against the outer walls of the cross plates 7. There are four guide vertical plates 10 between the front and rear cross plates 7. The four guide vertical plates 10 are distributed in a rectangular shape. Two connecting plates 11 are fixedly connected to the opposite side walls of the front and rear guide vertical plates 10. The connecting plate 11 extends downward in an L shape. A sliding hole 2 12 is provided on the outer wall of the connecting plate 11. A locking bolt 2 13 is inserted on the inner side of the sliding hole 2 12. The locking bolt 2 13 is threadedly connected with the outer wall of the cross plate 7, and the outer end of the locking bolt 2 13 abuts against the outer wall of the connecting plate 11.

[0016] A fixed shaft 14 is fixedly connected between the bottoms of the two front guide vertical plates 10. The bottom of the fixed shaft 14 has a flap 15, which is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft 14. A torsion spring 16 is sleeved on the outer wall of the fixed shaft 14. Both ends of the torsion spring 16 are fixedly connected to the flap 15 and the guide vertical plates 10 respectively.

[0017] First, according to the length of the popsicle stick, the operator needs to adjust the distance between the two support plates 6 by sliding the support plate 6 and the locking bolt 9 left and right along the slide hole 8. When the distance between the two support plates 6 is adjusted to a suitable position, tighten the locking bolt 9 to ensure that the support plates 6 are relatively fixed.

[0018] Next, according to the thickness of the popsicle stick, the operator needs to adjust the height of the four guide vertical plates 10, which is achieved by moving the guide vertical plates 10 up and down. The guide vertical plates 10 slide up and down along the locking bolts 13 through the connecting plates 11 and the sliding holes 12 at the bottom thereof. When the height of the bottom of the guide vertical plates 10 from the chain conveyor 2 is slightly greater than the thickness of an popsicle stick, tighten the locking bolts 13 to ensure that the guide vertical plates 10 are fixed.

[0019] The popsicle sticks are arranged vertically between the two support plates 6 and the four guide vertical plates 10 . Due to the restrictions of the guide vertical plates 10 , the popsicle sticks are neatly stacked on the top of the pressure plate 3 .

[0020] The chain conveyor 2 starts, and the short column on it will push the lowest popsicle stick forward. When the popsicle stick touches the flap 15, the flap 15 flips outward with the fixed axis 14 as the center under the thrust of the popsicle stick, allowing the popsicle stick to continue to move forward.

[0021] The popsicle stick continues to move to the right below the branding machine 5, and the branding machine 5 is started to brand the desired words or patterns on the surface of the popsicle stick.

[0022] As the chain conveyor 2 continues to operate, subsequent popsicle sticks will be pushed to the bottom of the branding machine 5 for branding, thereby realizing a continuous and automated production process. The chain conveyor 2 and the branding machine 5 in the present invention are both prior art devices and will not be described in detail. The present invention only protects the mechanical part, and the functions realized by the software control part are not within the protection scope of the present invention.
