Detailed Embodiment

[0017] The embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below. The illustrated embodiments are shown in the drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals represent the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions throughout.

[0018] In the present utility model, unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, terms such as "assembled", "connected", and "joined" shall be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can also be a mechanical connection; it can be directly connected, or connected through an intermediate medium, and can be internally connected and communicated between two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0019] The following further describes the specific embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the drawings of the specification, making the technical solutions and their beneficial effects of the present utility model clearer and more definite. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present utility model, and should not be construed as limiting the present utility model.

[0020] The preferred embodiment provided by the present utility model is as follows: Figures 1 to 4As shown in the figure, a foam cutting machine includes a machine platform 1, a material cart 2, conveying rollers 3, and a cutting device 4. The cutting device 4 is installed at the end of the machine platform 1, and the conveying rollers 3 are arranged on the machine platform 1. The foam placed on the conveying rollers 3 is conveyed to the cutting device 4 through the conveying rollers 3. A number of bumps 31 made of rubber material are arranged on the end face of the conveying rollers 3 to enhance the friction of the conveying rollers 3. The cutting device 4 includes a box body 41 and a heating wire 42. The box body 41 has a blanking cavity 43, which is arranged in the blanking cavity 43 at equal intervals. The cutting device is a box body with a heating wire inside, using a high-temperature electric heating wire to cut the foam, making the cut surface flat and without debris. The box body has a product forming outlet, which is convenient for taking out the cut foam.

[0021] The material cart 2 is an independent part, which is convenient for storing and transporting the produced foam. The material cart 2 includes a material rack 21, a tension spring 22, and a support plate 23. A slot 24 is provided at the bottom of the material rack 21, and the support plate 23 is inserted into the slot 24. The head end of the slot 24 is open for the support plate 23 to extend out of the slot 24. The tension spring 22 is placed in the slot 24. The head end of the tension spring 22 is fixed in the slot 24, and the tail end of the tension spring 22 is connected to the support plate 23. A convex block 25 is provided at the end of the machine platform 1. The support plate 23 is in contact with the convex block 25 to push the support plate 23 out of the slot 24. The support plate 23 extending out of the slot 24 retracts into the slot 24 through the tension spring 22. The size of the convex block gradually narrows towards the slot direction, which is convenient for contacting the support plate without colliding with the material rack.

[0022] The material cart 2 has a cavity 26 for placing the foam 5. The bottom of the material cart 2 is equipped with rollers 27. The material cart 2 is equipped with a braking member 28, and the braking member 28 is connected to the rollers 27 to control the start and stop of the material cart 2. The braking member 28 adopts a bicycle handbrake, and the connection method between the braking member 28 and the rollers 27 adopts the existing bicycle braking structure, which will not be elaborated here. The front end of the material cart 2 is open, and the rear end of the material cart 2 is provided with an arch 29. The arch 29 is communicated with the cavity 26 for the support plate 23 to extend into the cavity 26. A handle 6 is installed on the outer surface of the arch 29, which is convenient for grasping and pushing the material cart 2.

[0023] Operation process: Load the produced foam 5 into the cavity 26 of the material cart 2, move the material cart 2 to the machine platform 1, so that the convex block 25 collides with the support plate 23 to push it out of the slot 24. Since the foam is light in weight, the support plate 23 as a load-bearing member does not need to use high-hardness materials. Therefore, in this embodiment, the support plate 23 is made of soft PC material, so that after the support plate 23 extends into the arch 29, it is squeezed and bent by the wall surface of the arch 29 to reduce the length of the material cart 2. The foam is supported on the support plate 23. When the support plate 23 moves out of the cavity 26, the foam falls and contacts the conveying rollers 3, and then the foam is conveyed by the conveying rollers 3 to the blanking cavity 43 and contacts the heating wire 42 to complete the foam cutting.

[0024] In the description of the specification, the description with reference to terms such as "one embodiment", "preferably", "example", "specific example" or "some examples", etc. means that the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described in connection with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present utility model. The schematic description of the above terms in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described can be combined in a suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.

[0025] Through the description of the above structures and principles, those skilled in the art should understand that the present utility model is not limited to the above specific embodiments, and the improvements and substitutions using the well-known technologies in the art based on the present utility model fall within the protection scope of the present utility model, which should be defined by each claim.
