DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a thin material pulling mechanism, including a plunger 3 arranged on an upper mold 1, a pulling assembly 4 arranged on a lower mold 2, a feeder arranged in front of the lower mold 2 (on the left), and a thin material pulling mechanism arranged behind the lower mold 2 (on the right). When the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are closed, the plunger 3 pushes the pulling assembly 4 to move in a direction away from the lower mold 2 to pull the material strip 7 to the working area of ​​the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2.

[0034] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the material pulling assembly 4 includes a mounting seat 41, a sliding block 42 is arranged inside the mounting seat 41, and the sliding block 42 is connected to the mounting seat 41 through a first elastic member 43, so that when the inserting knife 3 rises, the first elastic member 43 can reset the sliding block 42, so as to facilitate the pulling of the material strip 7 when the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are closed next time, thereby improving production efficiency. In addition, a transmission component 5 is arranged on the outer side of the mounting seat 41, and the transmission component 5 is connected to the sliding block 42 through a rotating shaft 6, so that the transmission component 5 rotates around the rotating shaft 6. When the inserting knife 3 is pressed down and contacts the transmission component 5, the transmission component 5 rotates, which can not only complete the transmission of force, but also reduce the friction between the inserting knife 3 and the transmission component 5, thereby reducing wear and extending the service life of the entire mechanism.

[0035] like Figures 6 to 9As shown, in this embodiment, a mounting groove is provided on the side of the sliding block 42 away from the transmission component 5, at least a part of the first elastic member 43 is provided in the mounting groove, and one end of the first elastic member 43 is connected to the sliding block 42, and the other end of the first elastic member 43 is connected to the mounting seat 41. When the inserting knife 3 moves downward to push the transmission component 5, thereby driving the rotating shaft 6 and the sliding block 42 to move to the right, the first elastic member 43 is compressed, thereby generating a deformation, and then pulling the material belt 7; when the inserting knife 3 moves upward, the inserting knife 3 does not contact the transmission component 5, and the first elastic member 43 restores the deformation, thereby pushing the sliding block 42 to move to the left. In addition, the first elastic member 43 can be designed as a spring. Of course, in actual design, the structure of the first elastic member 43 can be designed according to actual needs.

[0036] like Figures 2 to 9 As shown, in this embodiment, a feeding needle assembly 44 is provided on the sliding block 42. When the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are closed, the inserting knife 3 moves downward and contacts the transmission component 5, so that the transmission component 5 rotates, and the sliding block 42 moves in a direction away from the lower mold 2, so that the feeding needle assembly 44 pulls the material belt 7. The utility model converts the vertical movement of the inserting knife 3 into the horizontal movement of the sliding block 42. Through the guiding effect of the sliding block 42, the feeding needle assembly 44 can be accurately and stably pushed forward, so as to convey the material belt 7 to the working area of ​​the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2, so that the material belt 7 is conveyed smoothly, and the material belt 7 is prevented from being arched or stuck during the feeding process, so as to avoid the problem of unstable products and affecting product size caused by feeding only by the feeder, thereby improving product quality and production efficiency.

[0037] like Figure 6 , Fig.10 As shown, in this embodiment, a guide slope 31 is provided on the side of the insert knife 3 close to the transmission component 5, so that when the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are closed, the insert knife 3 can quickly contact the transmission component 5. The guide slope 31 serves as a transition surface, which can guide the insert knife 3 to slide smoothly into the engagement position of the transmission component 5 along a predetermined trajectory, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the contact, thereby effectively improving the overall work efficiency. At the same time, the guide slope 31 disperses the originally concentrated collision force and converts it into a smooth sliding friction force through its gradually changing inclination angle, which can reduce the collision between the insert knife 3 and the transmission component 5, prevent the insert knife 3 and the transmission component 5 from being damaged, extend the service life of the insert knife 3 and the transmission component 5, and reduce the maintenance cost. In addition, the width of the insert knife 3 is one step, so that each time the mold is closed, the material pulling component 4 pulls the material belt 7 to move one step. In addition, two inserting knives 3 can be designed, and the two inserting knives 3 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting seat 41. Two transmission components 5 are correspondingly arranged on the mounting seat 41. The two transmission components 5 are connected by a rotating shaft 6, which can enhance the stability of the pulling component 4 on the material belt 7.

[0038] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Fig.10 As shown, in this embodiment, the transmission component 5 includes a snap ring 51 and a washer 52, and the snap ring 51 and the washer 52 are both sleeved on the rotating shaft 6, and the snap ring 51 is located on the outside of the washer 52, which is convenient for subsequent replacement and maintenance, and the setting of the washer 52 can further reduce the friction between the inserting knife 3 and the transmission component 5. In addition, a limiting groove is provided on the rotating shaft 6, and the snap ring 51 is set in the limiting groove to limit the washer 52 on the rotating shaft 6. When the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are closed, the inserting knife 3 moves downward, and the inserting knife 3 moves away from the lower mold 2 by pushing the washer 52, thereby driving the rotating shaft 6, the sliding block 42 and the feeding needle assembly 44 to move away from the lower mold 2, and then pulling the material belt 7 by a step distance.

[0039] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 As shown, in this embodiment, a sliding groove 411 is provided on the mounting seat 41, at least a part of the rotating shaft 6 is provided in the sliding groove 411, one end of the rotating shaft 6 is connected to the snap ring 51 and the washer 52, and one end of the rotating shaft 6 is connected to the sliding block 42, so that the sliding block 42 and the transmission component 5 move synchronously, thereby realizing the synchronous transmission of force and the precise execution of the action. In addition, the groove width of the sliding groove 411 is greater than the diameter of the rotating shaft 6, and the sliding groove 411 can provide a moving space for the rotating shaft 6, so that the pulling component 4 pulls the material belt 7 to move a step distance.

[0040] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 As shown, in this embodiment, the feed needle assembly 44 includes a feed head 441 and a feed head 441 mounting block. The feed head 441 mounting block is arranged below the feed head 441. The feed head 441 is connected to the feed head 441 mounting block through a second elastic member 443. The feed head 441 is plugged into the hole of the material belt 7. When the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are in the process of closing the mold, the inserting knife 3 moves downward, and the transmission member 5 pushes the rotating shaft 6 and the slider to move to the side away from the lower mold 2, so that the feed head 441 drives the material belt 7 to move a step distance. In addition, the feed head 441 is connected to the feed head 441 mounting block through a second elastic member 443. The second elastic member 443 makes the feed head 441 pull the material belt 7 more stably, so that the feed head 441 is always plugged into the hole of the material belt 7, thereby improving the stability of the assembly. In addition, the second elastic member 443 may be designed as a spring. Of course, in actual design, the structure of the second elastic member 443 may be designed according to actual needs.

[0041] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 As shown, in this embodiment, the end of the feed head 441 is provided with a first stop face 4411, and the first stop face 4411 is tilted so that the height of the side of the feed head 441 close to the lower mold 2 is less than the height of the side of the feed head 441 away from the lower mold 2, that is, the first stop face 4411 is tilted from right to left, so that the tilt direction of the first stop face 4411 forms a certain angle with the running direction of the material belt 7, so that the material belt 7 can only move in one direction. When the sliding block 42 moves to the left to reset under the push of the first elastic member 43, the feed head 441 is plugged into another hole of the material belt 7 to prepare for the next mold closing.

[0042] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 As shown, in this embodiment, the feed needle assembly 44 can be designed as two groups, and the two groups of feed needle assemblies 44 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the material belt 7, and the two feed heads 441 are connected to the feed head 441 mounting block through the corresponding second elastic member 443, so as to further improve the stability of the movement of the material belt 7. Of course, in actual design, the number of feed heads 441 can be designed according to actual needs.

[0043] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 As shown, in this embodiment, a back-stopping needle assembly 45 is also provided in the mounting seat 41. The back-stopping needle assembly 45 is provided on the side of the feed needle assembly 44 close to the lower mold 2. The back-stopping needle assembly 45 includes a back-stopping head 451. The back-stopping head 451 is connected to the mounting seat 41 through a third elastic member 452, and the back-stopping head 451 is plugged into the hole of the material belt 7. The third elastic member 452 makes the back-stopping of the material belt 7 by the back-stopping head 451 more stable, so that the feed head 441 is always plugged into the hole of the material belt 7, thereby improving the stability of the assembly. In addition, the third elastic member 452 can be designed as a spring. Of course, in actual design, the structure of the third elastic member 452 can be designed according to actual needs.

[0044] In this embodiment, a second stop surface 4511 is provided at the end of the stop head 451, and the second stop surface 4511 is tilted so that the height of the side of the stop head 451 close to the lower mold 2 is less than the height of the side of the stop head 451 away from the lower mold 2, that is, the second stop surface 4511 is tilted from right to left, so that the tilt direction of the second stop surface 4511 forms a certain angle with the running direction of the material belt 7, so that the material belt 7 can only move in one direction. When the sliding block 42 moves to the left to reset under the push of the first elastic member 43, the second stop surface 4511 can prevent the material belt 7 from following and retreating, which can ensure that the material belt 7 remains stationary during this process, and prevents affecting the production of the material belt 7 in the working area of ​​the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2.

[0045] When the utility model is in use, the feeder conveys the material strip 7 to between the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2, and makes the feed needle assembly 44 and the anti-retraction needle assembly 45 plug into the hole position of the material strip 7, then the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are closed, the inserting knife 3 moves downward, and the inserting knife 3 pushes the rotating shaft 6, the sliding block 42, and the feed needle assembly 44 to move away from the lower mold 2 through the transmission component 5, so that the feed needle assembly 44 pulls the material strip 7 by a step distance; after the material strip 7 located in the working area of ​​the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 is processed, the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are opened, the inserting knife 3 moves upward, and the sliding block 42 moves to the left to reset under the push of the first elastic member 43, and the feed needle assembly 44 is plugged into another hole position of the material strip 7, and at the same time, the anti-retraction needle assembly 45 is plugged into the hole position of the material strip 7 to prevent the material strip 7 from following and retreating. There is a feeder in front of the mold (on the left side) to feed the material, and a pulling mechanism behind the mold (on the right side) to pull the material strip 7, which can ensure the stability of the material strip 7 and provide support for it. It can prevent the material strip 7 from arching or getting stuck during the feeding process due to the material strip 7 being too thin or having poor rigidity, so that the material strip 7 can be produced smoothly and the production efficiency can be improved.

[0046] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or changes based on the above description, and all these improvements and changes should fall within the scope of protection of the claims attached to the utility model.
