Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of rotary joints, in particular to a rotary joint for a hot melt adhesive machine. Background Technique

[0002] A hot melt adhesive machine is a device that heats and melts solid hot melt adhesive and transports and sprays the hot melt adhesive through a certain pressure and method. In order to complete the large-area glue application work in a short time during the operation of the hot melt adhesive machine, a rotary joint needs to be used.

[0003] A Chinese patent with the authorization announcement number CN214052315U discloses a rotary joint for a hot melt adhesive machine, which includes a glue inlet cylinder. On the inner cylinder wall of the glue inlet cylinder, first sliding grooves are symmetrically opened. On the groove bottom of the first sliding groove far away from the spray gun, clamping holes are opened. In the first sliding grooves, first sliders are slidably connected. The opposite ends of the first sliders both pass through the notch of the corresponding first sliding groove and extend outwards, and are commonly fixedly connected with a limiting ring. Inside the limiting ring, a glue inlet pipe is rotatably connected through a bearing, and the upper end of the glue inlet pipe extends into the glue inlet cylinder. The rotary joint of the utility model enables the glue inlet pipe not to be damaged, and at the same time can prevent the situation that the rotary joint is blocked due to the residue of hot melt adhesive.

[0004] However, there are still some problems with the above-mentioned rotary joint. In actual application, with the continuous use and transportation of hot melt adhesive, if it cannot be cleaned in time, some cured substances will gradually accumulate in the discharge pipe, eventually causing the discharge pipe to be blocked, which will seriously affect the normal transportation of hot melt adhesive, resulting in production interruption and reducing production efficiency. Therefore, a rotary joint for a hot melt adhesive machine is proposed for the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] In order to make up for the deficiencies of the prior art and solve the problems proposed in the background technique, the utility model proposes a rotary joint for a hot melt adhesive machine.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problems is as follows: A rotary joint for a hot melt adhesive machine according to the utility model includes a joint body. On the top side outer wall of one end of the joint body, a glue outlet pipe is connected. On the bottom side outer wall of one end of the joint body, an installation cavity is connected. Inside the installation cavity, a cleaning component is installed. The cleaning component includes a telescopic rod. The telescopic rod is installed inside the installation cavity through penetration. The acting end of the telescopic rod is equipped with an acting rod. A rod hole is opened between the joint body and the installation cavity. The top end of the acting rod movably penetrates the rod hole and is fixedly connected with a piston block. The radius of the piston block is less than or equal to the inner diameter of the glue outlet pipe. A circular groove is opened through the piston block inside the acting rod. Inside the circular groove, an electric heating wire is installed, which can effectively soften and remove the residual hot melt adhesive, realizing the automatic cleaning of the inside of the discharge pipe and ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of glue outlet.

[0007] Preferably, a switch is installed on the bottom side of the telescopic rod, and a rubber sleeve is assembled outside the switch. A battery is assembled on the outer wall of the installation cavity. The battery is used to meet the power supply requirements of the telescopic rod and the heating wire, and the rubber sleeve prevents the risk of electric shock.

[0008] Preferably, a glue inlet is provided on one side of the joint body, and a threaded groove is provided at one end of the joint body outside the glue inlet. The threaded groove is used to connect with the discharge end of the hot melt adhesive machine, ensuring the stability and tightness of the hot melt adhesive during transmission, and avoiding leakage and waste of the hot melt adhesive.

[0009] Preferably, a rotating shaft is installed through the middle position of the joint body in a movable manner. A baffle is installed on the outer wall of the middle end of the rotating shaft through spline fit. The baffle is located inside the joint body. A knob is installed at the bottom end of the rotating shaft. A spring is fixedly connected between the knob and the joint body. The spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating shaft. An indicating needle is installed at the top end of the rotating shaft, realizing the change of the flow rate of the hot melt adhesive and meeting the requirements in different application scenarios.

[0010] Preferably, an installation ring is installed on the top outer wall of the joint body. A plurality of card slots are equidistantly provided inside the installation ring. A disc is installed on the outer wall of the top end of the rotating shaft. A plurality of clamping blocks are equidistantly installed on the outer wall of the disc. The clamping blocks are clamped inside the card slots, realizing the limiting and locking functions of the rotating shaft and the baffle, and ensuring the stability and consistency of the glue application process.

[0011] Preferably, the controller of the hot melt adhesive machine is electrically connected to the heating wire, the telescopic rod and the switch, and is used for signal transmission to the switch and operation control of the heating wire and the telescopic rod, improving the automation degree and working efficiency of the equipment.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. When it is necessary to clean the residual hot melt adhesive in the glue outlet pipe in the present utility model, the battery supplies power to the telescopic rod and the heating wire. The telescopic rod extends, pushing the actuating rod upward, so that the piston block enters the glue outlet pipe. At the same time, the heating wire generates heat to soften the residual hot melt adhesive. The upward movement of the piston block pushes the softened hot melt adhesive out of the glue outlet pipe, thereby realizing the automatic cleaning of the inside of the discharge pipe and ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of glue discharge.

[0014] 2. When the user pushes the knob of the present utility model upward, the spring is compressed. With the cooperation of the spline, the rotating shaft moves upward. At this time, the baffle remains stationary inside the joint body, and the clamping block disengages from the clamping groove. Then, the knob is rotated to drive the rotating shaft and the baffle to rotate. With the cooperation of the indicating needle, the relative angle between the baffle and the internal channel of the joint body is changed, thereby achieving the change of the flow rate of the hot melt adhesive to meet the requirements of different application scenarios. After adjusting the flow rate, the knob is released, and the spring rebounds, causing the clamping block to snap back into the clamping groove, realizing the limiting and locking functions of the rotating shaft and the baffle, and ensuring the stability and consistency of the gluing process.
