Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of clothing ironing, in particular to a multi-station ironing system. Background Technique

[0002] During the production process of clothing, wrinkles are inevitably generated, which affects the aesthetics of the final clothing product. Therefore, ironing is usually carried out before packaging to make the clothes flat.

[0003] In existing factories, manual ironing equipment is only supplied for single-station use. Therefore, in order to complete the production tasks, the factory area often needs to set up multiple ironing stations and be equipped with multiple ironing devices. This not only has a high cost, but also makes the connecting pipelines in the factory area numerous and messy, and is prone to failures and cause dangers, such as steam leakage caused by pipeline rupture. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] To solve the technical problems existing in the above background technique, the utility model provides a multi-station ironing system.

[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is as follows:

[0006] A multi-station ironing system includes a bench. A plurality of ironing platforms are fixed on the periphery of the bench. Connecting valves are respectively arranged on the top of the bench corresponding to the positions of the ironing platforms. An air distribution box is also arranged on the bench. One end of the connecting valve is connected to an iron through a pipeline, and the other end is communicated with the air distribution box through a pipeline. The air distribution box is communicated with a steam supply pipeline through a pipeline;

[0007] The air distribution box is provided with an air inlet and a plurality of air outlets. The plurality of air outlets are respectively communicated with the plurality of connecting valves. The air inlet is communicated with the steam supply pipeline. The distances between the plurality of air outlets and the air inlet are equal.

[0008] In the ironing system of this application, a plurality of connecting valves are uniformly connected to the steam supply pipeline through the air distribution box, effectively shortening the length of the connecting valves connecting to the steam supply pipeline, avoiding problems such as too long and too many pipelines, being wound and stacked with each other, resulting in extrusion and rupture or unsmooth air paths, which is beneficial to maintenance operations.

[0009] In addition, the air distribution box can supply steam to a plurality of connecting valves at equal pressure, so that each iron has steam with the same air pressure, avoiding uneven steam distribution resulting in some irons being unable to be used normally.

[0010] In the above solution, the air distribution box is a cylindrical box. The air inlet is opened on the lower end wall of the air distribution box, and the plurality of air outlets are opened on the side wall of the air distribution box.

[0011] Among them, the air inlet is preferably located at the center position of the lower end wall of the air distribution box to facilitate the layout of the air inlet and the plurality of air outlets.

[0012] As a preferred solution, the cross-section of the air distribution box is circular, that is, the air distribution box is cylindrical, which makes the air distribution box have stronger pressure-bearing capacity and improves its service life.

[0013] To facilitate the connection of pipelines, multiple air outlets are evenly spaced along the circumference of the air distribution box.

[0014] As another preferred solution, the cross-section of the air distribution box is an equilateral polygon, such as a square or a regular hexagon, etc. The number of sides can be set according to the number of connection valves to be connected. The air outlets are opened on the side plane of the air distribution box, which is easier to process during machining.

[0015] Among them, multiple air outlets are preferably respectively arranged at the central positions of the side wall planes of the air distribution box.

[0016] To prevent the pipelines connected to the iron from being laid on the ironing platform, which may cause inconvenience in operating the iron when ironing clothes, a pipeline support rod is provided on the ironing platform. The upper end of the pipeline support rod is provided with a clamping portion to clamp the pipeline connected between the iron and the connection valve, so as to support the pipeline.

[0017] In addition, a slideway is provided on the ironing platform. The lower end of the pipeline support rod is connected with the slideway in a matching manner and can slide along the slideway. During use, the pipeline support rod can move in cooperation with the position of the iron, avoiding the inconvenience caused by the iron being pulled by the pipeline.

[0018] To meet the moving range of the iron, a certain length of pipeline is reserved on both sides of the pipeline support rod. In order to shorten the length of the pipelines on both sides of the pipeline support rod and make the work station cleaner, the pipeline support rod is composed of three sub-rods vertically and sequentially hinged. The axes of the two hinge shafts are horizontal and perpendicular to each other, and torsion springs are provided on both hinge shafts. When the iron moves in a large range, pulling the pipeline, and the pipeline makes the support rod bend downward, converting the vertical length of the pipeline into the horizontal length to meet the horizontal movement of the iron. In this way, within the same moving range of the iron, the pipeline connected to the iron can be made shorter, even the shortest.

[0019] A multi-station ironing system provided by the present utility model supplies steam to the connection valves of multiple ironing platforms in an equal-pressure manner through an air distribution box, effectively shortening the length of the pipelines connected to the connection valves, avoiding problems such as excessive and long pipelines being entangled and stacked with each other, resulting in extrusion and rupture or unsmooth air paths, and at the same time being conducive to maintenance operations.

[0028] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, an embodiment of the present utility model provides a multi-station ironing system, including a bench 1, a plurality of ironing platforms 2 are fixed on the periphery of the bench 1, and each ironing platform 2 is an ironing station. The bench 1 can extend horizontally, and the plurality of ironing platforms 2 are respectively located on one side or both sides of the bench 1, forming a strip-shaped arrangement. The bench 1 can also be circular, and the plurality of ironing platforms 2 are arranged around the bench 1, forming a frustum-shaped arrangement. Specifically, it can be set according to the factory space.

[0029] Connection valves 3 are respectively arranged at the positions corresponding to the ironing platforms 2 on the top of the bench 1, and an air distribution box 4 is also arranged on the bench 1. One end of the connection valve 3 is connected to an iron 5 through a pipeline, and the other end is communicated with the air distribution box 4 through a pipeline. The air distribution box 4 is communicated with the steam supply pipeline 6 through a pipeline. Steam is distributed to each iron 5 through the air distribution box 4. Each connection valve 3 is used to control the connection or disconnection of the air path between the iron 5 and the air distribution box 4. The connection valve 3 can be an existing valve such as a ball valve.

[0030] Since a plurality of connection valves 3 are all connected to the air distribution box 4 and are uniformly connected to the steam supply pipeline 6 through the air distribution box 4, the length of the pipeline connecting the connection valve 3 to the steam supply pipeline is effectively shortened, which is beneficial to regularizing the pipeline, avoiding problems such as excessive length and entanglement of the pipeline, resulting in extrusion and rupture or unsmooth air path, and is beneficial to maintenance operations.

[0031] The air distribution box 4 is located below the connection valve 3, or below the ironing platform 2, so as to facilitate hiding the pipelines, making the factory cleaner and avoiding damage to the pipelines caused by workers' mistakes. The air distribution box 4 is provided with an air inlet 41 and a plurality of air outlets 42. The plurality of air outlets 42 are respectively communicated with a plurality of connection valves 3. The air inlet 41 is communicated with the steam supply pipeline 6. The distances between the plurality of air outlets 42 and the air inlet 41 are equal, so that the steam pressure at each air outlet 42 is equal, and thus isobaric steam is supplied to each iron 5, avoiding that when multiple irons 5 are used simultaneously, some irons 5 cannot be used normally due to uneven steam distribution.

[0032] In addition, the isobaric steam supply of the air distribution box 4 can also effectively reduce the steam pressure supplied by the steam supply pipeline 6, so that the steam supply pipeline 6 does not have to increase the steam pressure for all irons 5 to be used normally, resulting in the need to strengthen the pipeline structure strength and increase the cost, and the potential safety hazard is also increased.

[0033] The air distribution box 4 can be a cylindrical box. The air inlet 41 is opened on the lower end wall of the air distribution box 4, and a plurality of air outlets 42 are opened on the side wall of the air distribution box 4. The air inlet 41 and the air outlets 42 can protrude outwardly with connecting parts for connecting pipelines.

[0034] Among them, the air inlet 41 is preferably located at the central position of the lower end wall of the air distribution box 4 to facilitate the arrangement of the air inlet 41 and the plurality of air outlets 42.

[0035] As Figure 3 shown, in one embodiment, the cross-section of the air distribution box 4 is circular, that is, the air distribution box 4 is cylindrical. The cylindrical structure makes the air distribution box 4 have stronger pressure-bearing capacity and can improve its service life.

[0036] And in order to facilitate connecting pipelines, the plurality of air outlets 42 are evenly spaced along the circumferential direction of the air distribution box 4.

[0037] Figure 3 Taking connecting six workstations as an example.

[0038] Again, as Figure 4 shown, in another embodiment, the cross-section of the air distribution box 4 is an equilateral polygon, such as a square or a regular hexagon, etc. The number of sides can be set according to the number of connection valves 3 to be connected. The air outlets 42 are opened on the side plane of the air distribution box 4. For the structure of the regular polygon main body, its side is multiple planes, making it easier to process the air outlets 42 and easier to ensure the airtightness of pipeline connection.

[0039] Among them, the plurality of air outlets 42 are preferably respectively arranged at the central positions of the side wall planes of the air distribution box 4.

[0040] Figure 4 Taking connecting six workstations as an example as well.

[0041] AsFigure 5 As shown, the ironing system of the present application further includes a pipe support rod 7, which is arranged on the ironing platform 2 and is used to support the pipe connecting the iron 5 to support the pipe. The upper end thereof is provided with a clamping portion 71 to clamp the pipe connecting the iron 5 and the connection valve 3.

[0042] Without the support of the pipe support rod 7, the pipe will be laid on the ironing platform 2, occupying the space of the ironing platform 2. Moreover, when ironing clothes, the iron 5 needs to move the pipe from time to time to avoid affecting the movement of the iron 5, making the operation of ironing clothes inconvenient. However, the pipe support rod 7 can suspend the pipe to avoid hindering the movement of the iron 5.

[0043] In addition, a slideway 8 is arranged on the ironing platform 2. The lower end of the pipe support rod 7 is connected with the slideway 8 in a matching manner and can slide along the slideway 8. Since the iron 5 sometimes needs to move a large range in the horizontal plane, the sliding pipe support rod 7 can move in cooperation with the position of the iron 5, avoiding the pipe on one side of the pipe support rod 7 being set too long to meet the movement of the iron 5, and also avoiding the iron 5 being inconvenient to use due to the pulling of the pipe.

[0044] Furthermore, in order to meet the movement range of the iron 5, a certain length of pipe is reserved on both sides of the pipe support rod 7. In order to shorten the length of the pipes on both sides of the pipe support rod 7 and make the work station neater, the pipe support rod 7 is vertically and sequentially hinged by three sub-rods 72. The axes of the two hinge shafts are horizontal and perpendicular to each other, and torque springs (not shown in the figure) are arranged on both hinge shafts. When the iron 5 moves a large range, due to the pipe being pulled by the iron 5, the support rod bends, and then the horizontally pullable length of the pipe is longer. Within the same movement range of the iron 5, the pipe connected to the iron 5 can be shorter.
