Detailed implementation manners

[0030] The following further elaborates on the present application in conjunction with the attached Figures 1-5 drawings.

[0031] The embodiment of the present application discloses a step feeding device for a drying cage. Referring to Figure 1 , it includes a fixed plate group 1 arranged at the entrance of the work clothes drying cage. An arc-shaped long hole 11 is opened on the fixed plate group 1 for adjusting the installation angle of the fixed plate group 1 to facilitate the smooth conveyance of the hanger 8. In this embodiment, the installation angle of the fixed plate group 1 is 20°, enabling the hanger 8 to slide under its own weight.

[0032] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a sliding seat 4 is arranged on the fixed plate group 1. The sliding seat 4 is arranged at the same angle as the fixed plate group 1. Through holes 44 are opened at both ends of the sliding seat 4, and connecting pins 7 are arranged in the through holes 44 for connecting the tracks of the work clothes conveying line and the work clothes drying cage. In this embodiment, the sliding seat 4 is machined by a polyoxymethylene rod. This material has good self-lubricity, enabling the hanger 8 to slide smoothly on the sliding seat 4; a special-shaped through groove 41 is opened on the surface of the sliding seat 4, and a locking tongue 42 is slidably connected in the special-shaped through groove 41. A protrusion is integrally formed at the top of the locking tongue 42. When the locking tongue 42 does not slide, the protrusion extends out of the special-shaped through groove 41. Two hole grooves 421 are opened on the bottom wall of the locking tongue 42, and a spring 43 is arranged in each hole groove 421. The bottom end of the spring 43 abuts against the bottom wall of the special-shaped through groove 41. Under the action of the spring 43, the locking tongue 42 maintains a tendency to extend out of the special-shaped through groove 41. The protrusion of the locking tongue 42 extending out of the special-shaped through groove 41 can block the hanger 8 and prevent it from further sliding.

[0033] Referring to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5, a blocking cylinder group 2 is further arranged on the fixing plate group 1. The blocking cylinder group 2 includes a cylinder body 21, a fixing block 22 and a blocking piece 23. The cylinder body 21 is connected to the fixing plate group 1. The fixing block 22 is detachably connected to the piston rod end wall of the cylinder body 21 through a bolt. The cross-sectional shape of the blocking piece 23 is T-shaped. A square groove 221 for the top end of the blocking piece 23 to be embedded is formed in the bottom wall of the fixing block 22. A pressing plate 24 is arranged at the bottom of the fixing block 22 for fixing the blocking piece 23. A square head protrusion 231 and a pointed head protrusion are integrally formed at the bottom end of the blocking piece 23. The protrusion of the lock tongue 42 is located between the square head protrusion 231 and the pointed head protrusion 232. When the cylinder body 21 operates, the blocking piece 23 will abut against the lock tongue 42, thereby driving the lock tongue 42 into the special-shaped through groove 41. The hanger 8 blocked by the lock tongue 42 will slide, and the square head protrusion 231 will limit the further sliding of the hanger 8 behind. When the cylinder body 21 resets, the hanger 8 located between the square head protrusion 231 and the pointed head protrusion 232 will enter the work clothes drying dragon, and the hanger 8 behind will be blocked by the reset lock tongue 42. The blocking piece 23 and the lock tongue 42 cooperate with each other to control the sliding and stopping of the hanger 8, and realize the step-by-step feeding of the hanger 8.

[0034] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , a stopper fixing group 3 is further arranged on the fixing plate group 1. It abuts against the lower end side wall of the fixing block 22, so as to prevent the piston rod of the cylinder body 21 from shifting under the thrust of the hanger 8 during the telescopic process, and improve the stability and safety of the step feeding device of the present application.

[0035] Refer to Figure 1 , a dial plate group 5 is further arranged on the fixing plate group 1. The dial plate group 5 includes a dial plate body 51 and a dial plate fixing plate 52. The dial plate fixing plate 52 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate group 1. The dial plate body 51 is hinged to the dial plate fixing plate 52. The length direction of the dial plate body 51 is the same as the length direction of the sliding seat 4. Under the action of gravity, one end of the dial plate body 51 close to the work clothes drying dragon will rotate downward. When the hanger 8 passes through, it will be lifted by the hanger 8 and this end will rotate upward. A sensor 6 is further arranged on the fixing plate group 1. The sensor 6 is located at the lighter end of the dial plate body 51. When the dial plate body 51 rotates under its own weight, the sensor 6 will be in an unblocked state and there will be no signal at this time. On the contrary, when the hanger 8 passes through and causes the dial plate body 51 to reverse, the sensor 6 will be blocked and thus be in a state with a signal. Repeating like this, the number of hangers 8 passing through the dial plate body 51 is counted.

[0036] The implementation principle of a step feeding device for a clothes drying cage in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: When several clothes hangers 8 are all hung on the sliding seat 4, the hanger 8 at the forefront will abut against the protrusion of the locking tongue 42 protruding from the special-shaped through groove 41, thereby blocking the continuous sliding of the hanger 8. The cylinder body 21 is activated, driving the fixed block 22 and the blocking piece 23 to move towards the sliding seat 4. The square-headed teeth 231 of the blocking piece 23 abut against one side of the locking tongue 42, causing the locking tongue 42 to abut against the sliding seat 4, making the sliding seat 4 slide towards the bottom direction of the special-shaped through groove 41. The spring 43 is compressed, accumulating elastic potential energy. The protrusion at the top of the locking tongue 42 will also enter the special-shaped through groove 41. The abutted hanger 8 will slide along the sliding seat 4 and then be blocked by the square-headed teeth 231, while the hanger 8 at the back will be blocked by the pointed teeth 232 of the blocking piece 23. After the cylinder body 21 resets, the front hanger 8 will slide into the work clothes drying cage, and the locking tongue 42 that loses the abutment of the blocking piece 23 will reset. The hanger 8 at the back will be abutted by the protrusion at the top of the locking tongue 42 that re-protrudes from the special-shaped through groove 41, thereby realizing the step-by-step conveyance of the hanger 8 to ensure that there is enough gap between the hangers 8 entering the work clothes drying cage, so as to improve the drying effect and drying efficiency.

[0037] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and do not limit the protection scope of the present application accordingly. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
