Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of LED strip cutting, in particular to a cutting machine for cutting LED strips. Background Art

[0002] An LED strip refers to an LED assembled on a strip-shaped FPC (flexible printed circuit board) or a rigid PCB board. It gets its name because its product shape is like a strip. Because of its long service life (generally a normal service life of 80,000 - 100,000 hours), and being very energy-saving and environmentally friendly, it has gradually emerged in various decoration industries.

[0003] In order to save materials and improve production efficiency, LED strips are usually spliced together with multiple circuit boards, and then the baseband is cut into multiple independent light strips by a cutting knife. However, relying on manual cutting consumes a lot of manpower and material resources, with extremely low efficiency and high costs. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The utility model aims to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. For this purpose, the utility model provides a cutting machine for cutting LED strips, which can improve production efficiency and the cutting quality of the strip, and reduce losses.

[0005] According to an embodiment of the utility model, a cutting machine for cutting LED strips includes:

[0006] A frame, provided with a workbench. The workbench is provided with a detection area. The detection area is provided with a plurality of light-transmitting holes, which are arranged in a matrix distribution. A detection channel for the strip to pass through is formed between each column of light-transmitting holes. An image acquisition device is erected above the detection area;

[0007] A loading device, arranged at one end of the workbench. The loading device includes a loading drive, a driving roller, and a pressure roller. The driving roller is rotatably connected to the workbench. The output end of the loading drive is connected to one end of the driving roller. The pressure roller is installed on the workbench and erected above the driving roller. A gap for the strip to pass through is left between the driving roller and the pressure roller;

[0008] A cutting device, installed on the workbench and arranged upstream of the detection area. The cutting device consists of a cutting drive, a mounting rod, and a cutting knife arranged on the mounting rod. The mounting rod is rotatably connected to the workbench. The output end of the cutting drive is connected to one end of the mounting rod. A plurality of cutting knives are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the mounting rod;

[0009] A receiving device, arranged downstream of the cutting device;

[0010] A control device, electrically connected to the image acquisition device, the loading device, the cutting device, and the receiving device.

[0011] For a cutting machine for LED light strip slitting according to an embodiment of the present utility model, a light source is provided below the light-transmitting hole, and the light source emits light towards the light-transmitting hole. After the light emitted by the light source passes through the light-transmitting hole, the light columns in the same column form a detection reference for constraining the edges of the light strip after slitting. If the width of the light strip after slitting is greater than the width of the detection channel, the light columns will be blocked. By combining the image acquisition device to acquire and analyze the image of the detection area, it is possible to more accurately determine whether the slitting of the light strip meets the requirements.

[0012] For a cutting machine for LED light strip slitting according to an embodiment of the present utility model, an annular installation block is provided on one side of the slitting knife. The installation block is inserted into the installation rod, and the installation block and the installation rod are fixedly connected through a locking member.

[0037] Refer to Figures 1 to 3, an embodiment of the utility model provides a cutting machine for slitting LED light strips, which includes a frame 100, on which a workbench 110 is provided. The workbench 110 is provided with a detection area 120, and the detection area 120 is provided with a plurality of light-transmitting holes 121. The light-transmitting holes 121 are arranged in a matrix distribution. A detection channel 130 for the light strip to pass through is formed between each column of light-transmitting holes 121. An image acquisition device 200 is erected above the detection area 120; a loading device 300 is arranged at one end of the workbench 110. The loading device 300 includes a loading drive 310, a driving roller 320 and a pressure roller 330. The driving roller 320 is rotatably connected to the workbench 110. The output end of the loading drive 310 is connected to one end of the driving roller 320. The pressure roller 330 is installed on the workbench 110 and is erected above the driving roller 320. A gap for the light strip to pass through is left between the driving roller 320 and the pressure roller 330; a cutting device 400 is installed on the workbench 110 and is arranged upstream of the detection area 120. The cutting device 400 is composed of a cutting drive 410, a mounting rod 420 and slitting knives 430 arranged on the mounting rod 420. The mounting rod 420 is rotatably connected to the workbench 110. The output end of the cutting drive 410 is connected to one end of the mounting rod 420. A plurality of slitting knives 430 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the mounting rod 420; a receiving device is arranged downstream of the cutting device 400; a control device 500 is electrically connected to the image acquisition device 200, the loading device 300, the cutting device 400 and the receiving device.

[0038] After the slit light strip enters the detection area 120, the image acquisition device 200 quickly acquires image information of the light strip in the detection area 120 and feeds it back to the control device 500. After the control device 500 analyzes and judges the image, the position where the light strip slitting has defects is displayed on the display screen of the control device 500, and the worker marks the defective light strip according to the position. Specifically, the image acquisition device 200 can be a machine with image acquisition functions such as a computer camera or a high-speed camera. Among them, the loading drive 310 drives the driving roller 320 to rotate, and the driving roller 320 and the pressure roller 330 clamp the light strip.
