By rotating the connection between the central plate and the four side plates, the forming platform can be retracted to form a rectangular cavity, and the irregular carbon fiber material can be packaged into a regular rectangular carbon fiber material package, which is easy to pack, improves the packing rate, minimizes the labor intensity of workers, saves costs, and improves the economic value and application range of the device.
[0004] In order to achieve the above object, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0005] An automatic carbon fiber forming device includes a support frame and a support platform. The support platform is arranged inside the support frame. A return pressure device is arranged at the center of the support platform, and a forming platform is arranged on the top of the return pressure device. The forming platform is a cross structure composed of a central rectangular bottom plate and four rectangular side plates around. The bottom plate is rotatably connected to the surrounding side plates.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0010] 1. During the vacuum compression process of the carbon fiber material packaging, the flipping side plate of the forming platform becomes a forming cavity, automatically shaping and sizing the carbon fiber material, pressing it down, evacuating the air for packaging, making packaging products with consistent and standardized sizes, which are easy to be packed into boxes, improving the packing rate, minimizing the labor intensity of workers, and increasing the production efficiency.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0019] The following further describes the specific embodiments of the present utility model with reference to the drawings:
[0020] As shown in Figures 1 - 6As shown in the figure, the working principle of a carbon fiber automatic forming device is as follows: By utilizing the reversibility of the four side plates 42 and one bottom plate 41 of the forming platform 4, when the carbon fiber material enters the range of the bottom plate 41 at the center of the forming platform 4 through the feeding platform 10, the pressing cover 8 parallel to the forming platform 4 is pressed down by the air cylinder, and the air cylinder 7 continues to press down tightly on the carbon fiber material. During the downward pressing process, vacuum pumping is accompanied. The return pressure device 3 arranged on the back of the center of the bottom plate 41 contracts downward, the bottom plate 41 and the carbon fiber material move downward, and the side plates 42 rotatably connected to the bottom plate 41 at 43 are also pressed downward. The inner holes 51 in the sliding grooves 5 on the back of the side plates 42 are limited and move downward by the turning shafts 6. The turning shafts 6 are fixed on the support frame 1 and do not move. The holes 51 move downward along with the side plates 42. The side plates 42 connected to the sliding grooves 5 are also guided by the fixed turning shafts 6 and gradually converge into a rectangular cavity 44. At this time, the pressing cover 8 compresses the carbon fiber material to the lowest level, and the carbon fiber material is vacuum-compressed into a rectangular cuboid, which is sent to the packing box through the discharging platform 11. The packing is convenient, the packing rate is improved, and the labor intensity is reduced. After the compression of the carbon fiber material is completed, the pressing cover 8 is lifted, and the return tension of the return pressure device 3 jacks up the bottom plate 41, and the surrounding side plates 42 are turned outward and opened, restoring the rectangular cavity 44 to the forming platform 4, thus completing an automatic forming operation.
[0021] As Figures 1 - 6 shown in the figure, a carbon fiber automatic forming device includes a support frame 1 and a support platform 2. The support platform 2 is arranged inside the support frame 1. A return pressure device 3 is arranged at the center of the support platform 2. The return pressure device 3 can adopt structures such as springs, hydraulic components, and elastic sheets, and is compressed together when the forming platform 4 and the carbon fiber material are pressed downward. When the vacuum compression packaging of the carbon fiber material is completed, the elastic return or hydraulic return accumulated in the return pressure device 3 jacks up the forming platform 4, and the rectangular cavity 44 returns to the state of the forming platform 4. The forming platform 4 is arranged on the top of the return pressure device 3. The forming platform 4 is a cross-connection structure composed of five rectangular plates. The rectangular plate at the cross center is rotatably connected to the four rectangular plates around at 43. Under the convergence and rotation of the surrounding side plates 42, the forming platform converges into a rectangular cavity 44 with the central rectangular plate as the bottom plate 41 and the surrounding rectangular plates as the side plates 42. When the five plates are combined flatly in a cross shape, it is the forming platform 4. When closed, it will form a cuboid box shape without a top cover. A sliding groove 5 is arranged on the outer side surface of each side plate 42. The hole 51 in the sliding groove 5 passes through the turning shaft 6. The two ends of the turning shaft 6 are fixed on the support frame 1. The turning shaft 6 is fixed and does not move. The turning shaft 6 gives a convergence guiding effect to the surrounding side plates 42, smoothly converging the surrounding side plates 42 and the bottom plate 41 to form a rectangular cavity 44. This convergence process does not require other power sources, has a simple structure, and saves costs.
[0022] Further, the carbon fiber automatic forming device further includes a gland 8 and a cylinder 7. The cylinder 7 is arranged at the top of the support frame 1, and the gland 8 is arranged facing the forming platform 4 by the cylinder 7. The gland 8 is parallel to and opposite the forming platform 4, with a certain distance therebetween.
[0023] Further, photoelectric distance sensors 9 are arranged on both sides of the support frame 1. The photoelectric distance sensors 9 detect that the carbon fiber material in the sensor area needs to be packaged. When the carbon fiber material is pushed from the feeding platform 10 to the center bottom plate 41 position of the forming platform 4, both photoelectric distance sensors 9 on both sides detect the carbon fiber material, and the carbon fiber automatic forming device automatically starts packaging to achieve automatic packaging.
[0024] Further, there are four turning shafts 6, and the four turning shafts 6 form a rectangle to enclose the rectangular cavity 44 in the middle.
[0025] Further, the slot hole 51 is obliquely long strip-shaped.
[0026] The above is only the preferred specific implementation manner of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model, according to the technical solution and its concept of the present utility model, making equivalent replacements or changes should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
