DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The following is combined with Figure 1-3 This application is described in further detail.

[0031] The embodiment of the present application discloses an automatic cloth roll feeding device. Figure 1A cloth roll automatic feeding device includes a ground moving device 1 and a grabbing member 2. The ground moving device 1 is set on the ground and can move arbitrarily on the ground. A lifting platform 3 is set on the ground moving device 1, and the grabbing member 2 is installed on the lifting platform 3. The lifting platform 3 can drive the grabbing member 2 to move in the vertical direction. The grabbing member 2 is used to grab the cloth roll. When the cloth roll needs to be replaced, the ground moving device 1 moves to a position close to the cloth roll storage area, and then the grabbing member 2 grabs the cloth roll through its own movement and the lifting and lowering of the lifting platform 3. After the cloth roll is grabbed, the ground moving device 1 moves, driving the cloth roll close to the air shaft on the unwinding device, and then the cloth roll is put on the air shaft to realize automatic feeding of the cloth roll, reducing the labor burden of the staff and improving the production efficiency of wet wipes.

[0032] Reference Figure 2 In this embodiment, the ground moving device 1 is an AGV, which has a mounting slot 11 for accommodating the lifting platform 3. A driving member 73 for raising and lowering the lifting platform 3 is located within the mounting slot 11. In this embodiment, the lifting member is an electric push rod (not shown). The electric push rod drives the lifting platform 3 up and down, which in turn drives the material gripping member 2 up and down.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 In this embodiment, the gripper 2 is a horizontally mounted pneumatic shaft, no longer than the fabric roll core, enabling the gripper 2 to slide the fabric roll onto the pneumatic shaft on the unwinding mechanism. A vertical support rod 4 is positioned below the gripper 2 to support the gripper 2. The height of the support rod 4 is no less than the radius of the fabric roll to minimize interference between the fabric roll and the AGV after the gripper 2 has grasped it.

[0034] Reference Figure 2 A fine-tuning mechanism 5 is provided between the gripper 2 and the lifting platform 3. This mechanism comprises a support plate 51 and a sliding assembly 6. The support plate 51 is removably fixed to the lifting platform 3 via screws, and the sliding assembly 6 is mounted on the support plate 51. The support rod 4 is mounted on the sliding assembly 6, which is used to drive the support rod 4 in two mutually perpendicular directions within the horizontal plane, thereby fine-tuning the position of the gripper 2. This reduces the possibility that the gripper 2 will not be able to properly grasp the fabric roll and place it on the unwinding device due to accuracy issues with the AGV.

[0035] Reference Figure 2The sliding assembly 6 includes a first sliding plate 61 and a second sliding plate 62. The first sliding plate 61 slides on the carrier plate 51 via a slide rail and a slider. The second sliding plate 62 slides on the first sliding plate 61 via a slide rail and a slider. The sliding directions of the first sliding plate 61 and the second sliding plate 62 are perpendicular to each other and parallel to the ground. The first sliding plate 61 and the second sliding plate 62 cooperate to adjust the position of the material grabbing member 2.

[0036] Reference Figure 2 The fine-tuning structure 5 also includes a first drive assembly 7 for driving the first sliding plate 61 to move and a second drive assembly 8 for driving the second sliding plate 62 to slide. The first drive assembly 7 is arranged between the supporting plate 51 and the first sliding plate 61. The first drive assembly 7 includes a lead screw 71, a connecting block 72 and a driving member 73. The lead screw 71 is rotatably arranged on the supporting plate 51, the connecting block 72 is fixedly connected to the first sliding plate 61, and the connecting block 72 is threadedly sleeved on the lead screw 71. The driving member 73 is used to drive the lead screw 71 to rotate. In this embodiment, the driving member 73 is a servo motor. The housing of the servo motor is fixedly connected to the supporting plate 51, and the output shaft of the servo motor is coaxially fixedly connected to the lead screw 71. The second drive assembly 8 is arranged between the first sliding plate 61 and the second sliding plate 62. The structural principle of the second drive assembly 8 is the same as that of the first drive assembly 7, and will not be repeated here.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 , a position sensor 9 is provided at the end of the gripping member 2 for detecting the position of the pneumatic shaft on the unwinding device. In this embodiment, the position sensor 9 is a visual camera, and in other embodiments, it can also be other devices capable of detecting the position of the pneumatic shaft. During the process of replacing the cloth roll, the AGV trolley drives the gripping member 2 to move to a position close to the pneumatic shaft of the unwinding device. At this time, the position sensor 9 detects the position of the pneumatic shaft in the unwinding device, and then the PLC program controls the operation of the sliding assembly 6 to make the gripping member 2 coaxial with the pneumatic shaft in the unwinding device, making it convenient to put the cloth roll on the pneumatic shaft of the unwinding device. A lighting lamp 10 is provided at the end of the gripping member 2, and the lighting lamp 10 faces the same direction as the position sensor 9, so as to facilitate the position sensor 9 to detect the position of the pneumatic shaft on the unwinding device.

[0038] The automatic cloth roll feeding device of the present embodiment is implemented as follows: a ground moving device 1 drives a gripper 2 to move automatically. After the gripper 2 grabs the cloth roll, it is driven by the ground moving device 1 to move the cloth roll toward the unwinding device, where it is placed on the unwinding device's pneumatic shaft for automatic feeding, reducing the workload of workers and improving wet wipes production efficiency.

[0039] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
