Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of blanking mechanisms, and more particularly to a combined flapping mechanism. Background Art
[0002] In a sheet production line, the processed sheets fall vertically from the production line, and the fallen sheets are stacked one by one from bottom to top. After accumulating a certain number (generally the number of sheets for one packaging), the stacked sheets can be directly packaged into products and stored in the warehouse. In the prior art, in order to stack the sheets neatly, guide plates are provided on the four peripheral sides of the sheet falling area (the sheet has a rectangular structure), and the sheets fall under the limiting action of the guide plates to improve the neatness between the sheets.
[0003] However, it is found in actual use that if the guide plate is far from the sheet, the position deviation between the sheets will be relatively large, and manual intervention is required to align them, which greatly reduces the production efficiency. If it is close to the sheet, jamming is likely to occur, affecting the production progress. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to reduce the position deviation of the sheets and avoid jamming, the present application provides a combined flapping mechanism, which can automatically align the sheets at regular intervals without manual intervention, greatly improving the production efficiency, and having the advantages of simple structure and convenient implementation.
[0005] A combined flapping mechanism provided by the present application adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] A combined flapping mechanism includes a plurality of flapping plates, the plurality of flapping plates are distributed on the four peripheral sides of the sheet, a contact surface is provided on the side of the flapping plate close to the sheet, each flapping plate is connected with an actuating component, the actuating component is communicated with a gas supply component for providing power for the actuating component, and the actuating component is used to drive each flapping plate to move towards or away from the sheet, and make the contact surface of each flapping plate abut against the periphery of the sheet to achieve centering.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solutions, as the production and processing progress, the sheets gradually fall between the flapping plates and have a certain position deviation. After a certain number of sheets have fallen, the actuating component drives the flapping plates to move towards the sheet, and makes the contact surface abut against the periphery of the sheet, and keeps pushing to achieve centering of the sheet, aligning the stacked sheets. After accumulating a certain number, the aligned sheets can be directly packed into products, simplifying the production process; and the whole process is fully automated without manual intervention, greatly improving the production and processing efficiency, and since there is no need to keep too close a distance between the flapping plate and the sheet for positioning, the problem of sheet jamming is basically avoided, greatly improving the smoothness of the production line.
[0008] Optionally, the flapping plate and its abutting surface extend in the vertical direction, and the extending length of the abutting surface is greater than the thickness of the sheet material in a single package.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the sheet material is always within the extending range of the abutting surface, ensuring that the sheet material can be effectively centered throughout the process.
[0010] Optionally, the top of the flapping plate is bent away from the sheet material.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the bend at the top of the flapping plate forms a larger space for the sheet material to fall, and it gradually shrinks from top to bottom, guiding and initially positioning the fall of a stack of sheet materials, improving the alignment degree of the initial stacking of the sheet materials.
[0012] Optionally, each of the execution components has two or more movable ends, and the two or more movable ends are simultaneously fixed to the corresponding flapping plate.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, connecting two or more movable ends to the flapping plate can provide a more stable installation structure for the flapping plate and improve the centering effect on the sheet material.
[0014] Optionally, the execution component includes a double-acting cylinder, and the two output shafts of the double-acting cylinder are fixed to the corresponding flapping plate.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, compared with two separately arranged cylinders, the double-acting cylinder is more convenient for synchronous control, improving the stability when the flapping plate moves and the strength of the installation structure.
[0016] Optionally, the air supply component includes an air source, a combination unit, an air supply main pipe, and a plurality of air supply branch pipes. The plurality of air supply branch pipes are communicated with the air supply main pipe, the air supply main pipe is communicated with the air source, the combination unit is arranged on the air supply main pipe and is used for controlling and regulating the gas pressure, and each air supply branch pipe is respectively communicated with each double-acting cylinder.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the air supply main pipe and the air supply branch pipes are used to supply air to each double-acting cylinder synchronously, facilitating the synchronous control of each double-acting cylinder.
[0018] Optionally, a two-position five-way directional control valve is communicated between the air supply branch pipe and the double-acting cylinder.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the two-position five-way directional control valve has two working positions and five interfaces, can control the forward and reverse movement of the cylinder piston and exhaust, and it can accurately control the fluid flow direction and pressure to achieve precise action control of the cylinder; it has a compact structure, occupies a small space, and is convenient for installation.
[0020] Optionally, when the sheet material falls, the distance between the flapping plate and the side of the sheet material is 20-30 mm.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, maintaining the above distance can form a certain guidance for the sheet material as much as possible without affecting the falling of the sheet material.
[0022] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0023] 1. As the sheet material is gradually processed, it gradually falls between the flapping plates and has a certain positional deviation. After a certain number of sheets have fallen, the actuating component drives the flapping plates to move towards the sheet material, and the abutting surface abuts against the periphery of the sheet material, and continues to push to achieve centering of the sheet material, aligning the stacked sheets. After accumulating to a certain number, the aligned sheets can be directly packed into products, simplifying the production process; and the whole process is fully automated without manual intervention, greatly improving the production and processing efficiency. Moreover, since there is no need to keep the distance between the flapping plate and the sheet material too close for positioning, the problem of sheet material jamming is basically avoided, greatly improving the smoothness of the production line;
[0024] 2. The bending at the top of the flapping plate forms a larger space for the sheet material to fall, and gradually shrinks from top to bottom, guiding and initially positioning the falling of a stack of sheet materials, improving the alignment degree of the initial stacking of sheet materials;
[0025] 3. Using a double-acting cylinder is more convenient to achieve synchronous control compared to two separately arranged cylinders, improving the stability of the movement of the flapping plate and the strength of the installation structure. Description of the Drawings

Detailed Description of the Embodiment
[0030] The following will further describe the present application in detail with reference to the attached Figures 1-3 drawings.
[0031] The embodiment of the present application discloses a combined flapping mechanism. Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, including multiple beating plates 1. The multiple beating plates 1 are distributed on the four side edges of the rectangular plate 00, and one abutting surface 11 is provided on the side of the beating plate 1 close to the plate 00. The abutting surface 11 is used to abut against the side edge of the plate 00 to correct the position of the plate 00. At the same time, each beating plate 1 is respectively connected with an actuating component 2, and the actuating components 2 are simultaneously communicated with the air supply component 3. The air supply component 3 supplies air to each actuating component 2 to provide power. Driven by the air supply component 3, the actuating component 2 drives the beating plate 1 to move towards or away from the plate 00, and the abutting surface 11 of the beating plate 1 can abut against the side edge of the plate 00.
[0032] During use, the actuating component 2 drives the beating plate 1 to move, and a certain distance is maintained between the beating plate 1 and the plate 00 to ensure that the plate 00 can fall normally without jamming. After a certain number of plates 00 have fallen (usually 3 - 5), the actuating component 2 drives each beating plate 1 to approach the plate 00 synchronously and makes the abutting surface 11 abut tightly against the side wall of the plate 00. As the actuating component 2 further advances, the misaligned plate 00 is pushed and aligned.
[0033] In this embodiment, six beating plates 1 are provided, among which four beating plates 1 are distributed in pairs on the two long side edges of the plate 00, and the remaining two are respectively distributed on the two short side edges of the plate 00. When the length of the long side of the plate 00 is relatively long, it is not convenient for a single beating plate 1 to quickly align the plate 00. By providing two beating plates 1 on the long side edge, the centering efficiency and effect of the plate 00 can be improved.
[0034] Specifically, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the beating plate 1 and its abutting surface 11 extend in the vertical direction, and the length of the abutting surface 11 extending in the vertical direction is greater than the thickness of the stacked primary packaging plates 00. As the plates 00 are stacked to the required quantity, the plates 00 are always within the extension range of the abutting surface 11, ensuring that effective centering of the plates 00 can be achieved throughout the process. In addition, the beating plate 1 with a suitable height can be set according to the thickness of the plates 00 in the primary packaging, further improving the adaptability.
[0035] Preferably, during the falling process of the plate 00, a distance of 20 - 30 mm is maintained between the beating plate 1 and the side edge of the plate 00, so as to form a certain guidance for the plate 00 as much as possible without affecting the falling of the plate 00.
[0036] Furthermore, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the top of each beating plate 1 is bent away from the plate 00, and the space formed by the part of each beating plate 1 at the bent part is larger and gradually decreases from top to bottom to guide the falling of the plate 00.
[0037] Referring to Figure 1 andFigure 2 Each actuating component 2 has two active ends, and the two active ends are simultaneously fixed to the corresponding flapping plate 1 of each actuating component 2. Since the flapping plate 1 has a certain length and will bear a certain acting force when pushing the plate 00, the two active ends can provide a more stable mounting structure for the flapping plate 1 to improve the centering effect of the flapping plate 1 on the plate 00.
[0038] In addition, according to the size of the flapping plate 1 and the magnitude of the acting force formed by the plate 00, more active ends can be considered to be configured to form a more stable mounting structure to meet the actual use requirements. For example, three active ends can be configured, and the connection points of the three active ends with the flapping plate 1 are distributed in a triangular shape.
[0039] It should be noted that the actuating component 2 can include a plurality of cylinders, and the output shafts of the plurality of cylinders form a plurality of the aforementioned active ends and are connected to the flapping plate 1.
[0040] In this embodiment, the actuating component 2 includes a double-acting cylinder 21. The two output shafts of the double-acting cylinder 21 serve as the active ends of the actuating component 2 and are simultaneously fixed to the corresponding flapping plate 1. Compared with two cylinders arranged separately, the double-acting cylinder 21 is more convenient to achieve synchronous control, improving the stability of the flapping plate 1 during movement and the strength of the mounting structure.
[0041] Refer to Figure 3 , the air supply component 3 includes an air source 31, a combination unit 32, an air supply main pipe 33 and a plurality of air supply branch pipes 34. The air supply branch pipes 34 are arranged corresponding to the number of flapping plates 1 and are respectively communicated with the corresponding double-acting cylinders 21. One end of the plurality of air supply branch pipes 34 far from the actuating mechanism is communicated with the air supply main pipe 33. The air supply main pipe 33 is connected to the air source 31, and the combination unit 32 is arranged on the air supply main pipe 33 to control and regulate the gas pressure. The air source 31 can be configured as an air compressor or a gas cylinder, etc. The gas supplied by the air source 31 is supplied to each double-acting cylinder 21 via the air supply main pipe 33 and the air supply branch pipes 34.
[0042] Furthermore, refer to Figure 3 , a five-way two-position directional control valve 22 is connected between the air supply branch pipe 34 and the double-acting cylinder 21. It has two working positions and five interfaces, can control the forward and reverse movement of the cylinder piston and exhaust, and can accurately control the fluid flow direction and pressure to achieve precise action control of the cylinder; it has a compact structure, occupies a small space and is convenient for installation.
[0043] The implementation principle of a combined flapping mechanism disclosed in the embodiment of the present application is:
[0044] When the sheet material 00 falls, the flapping plate 1 keeps a certain distance from the side of the sheet material 00. Under the guidance of the bending structure at the top of the flapping plate 1, the sheet materials 00 are stacked up. Every 3 - 5 sheet materials 00 are stacked, the output shafts of the respective double - axis cylinders 21 are synchronously ejected, and the abutting surface 11 of the flapping plate 1 is pressed tightly against the side of the sheet material 00, and the pushing is maintained until the sheet materials 00 are centered. Subsequently, the output shafts of the respective double - axis cylinders 21 are synchronously retracted, and the flapping plate 1 keeps a certain distance from the side of the sheet material 00 to ensure the normal falling of the sheet material 00. After a certain number of sheet materials 00 are stacked, a stack of already aligned sheet materials 00 is directly packaged and sealed into a product.
[0045] The above are all the preferred embodiments of this application. The protection scope of this application is not limited by this. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of this application should be covered within the protection scope of this application.
