[0034] Reference Figures 1 to 9 The soft cover device for books in the first embodiment of the present invention includes: a loading mechanism 100, including a lifting and discharging component and a first conveyor 130, the lifting and discharging component sends the books one by one to the first conveyor 130; a gluing mechanism, connected to the first conveyor 130, and the gluing mechanism is used to apply glue on the surface of the book; a page turning and bending mechanism 300, including a second conveyor 320 and a bending component, the second conveyor 320 is connected to the discharging end of the gluing mechanism, the second conveyor 320 is provided with a spreading component and a blowing part, the bending component is arranged above the blowing part, the spreading component is used to spread the bottom page of the book, the blowing part blows the bottom page toward the bending component, the bending component cooperates with the spreading component to bend the bottom page and fit it to the surface of the book, and the second conveyor 320 is used to send the book out.

[0035] The lifting and discharging assembly sends the booklets one by one to the first conveyor 130, and the first conveyor 130 sends the booklets to the gluing mechanism to roll glue. Then the booklets enter the second conveyor 320, and the spreading assembly spreads out the bottom page of the booklet, and then the blowing member blows up the bottom page so that the bottom page extends into the bending assembly, and then cooperates with the spreading assembly to bend the bottom page and fit it to the outer surface of the booklet, thereby realizing the formation of the soft cover of the booklet, improving production efficiency and reducing labor intensity.

[0036] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3The lifting and discharging assembly includes a lifting assembly and a transfer assembly. The transfer assembly is arranged at the feeding end of the first conveyor 130. The lifting assembly sends out the books one by one, and the transfer assembly sends the books from the lifting assembly to the first conveyor 130.

[0037] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The lifting assembly includes a sixth linear module 111, a seventh linear module 116, a flat plate 112, and two first positioning plates 115. Flat plate 112 docks with first conveyor 130. The sixth linear module 111 drives flat plate 112 in vertical motion, with the second positioning plate passing through flat plate 112. The seventh linear module 116 drives the second positioning plates toward or away from each other. The sixth linear module 111 drives flat plate 112 in vertical motion, with the two first positioning plates 115 symmetrically positioned on either side of the first movable block 125. Both first positioning plates 115 pass through flat plate 112. After the transfer assembly delivers a booklet, the sixth linear module 111 drives flat plate 112 upward to deliver the next booklet, achieving automatic loading. The seventh linear module 116 adjusts the position of the two first positioning plates 115 so that the distance between them matches the book. The two first positioning plates 115 abut against the sides of the book. When the flat plate 112 rises, the stacked books rise along the first positioning plates 115, preventing them from shifting during the ascent. It should be noted that the sixth linear module 111 can be an electric linear slide module, and the seventh linear module 116 can be a manual linear slide module.

[0038] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The transfer assembly includes a gripper 126, a first movable block 125, and a first sensor 124. The first movable block 125 is disposed at the movable end of the gripper 126 and is movable in the vertical direction. The first sensor 124 is disposed above the first movable block 125. The first movable block 125 can trigger the first sensor 124, and the gripper 126 grips the booklet and sends it from the lifting assembly to the first conveyor 130. After the booklet is sent out from the flatbed 112, it contacts the first movable block 125 and lifts the first movable block 125. The first movable block 125 triggers the first sensor 124, and then the gripper 126 is activated, grabbing the booklet and sending it to the first conveyor 130.

[0039] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3The transfer assembly also includes an adjustment component, comprising a screw 121, a second guide plate 122, and a third movable block 123. The screw 121 is threadedly connected to the third movable block 123, which is vertically movable on the second guide plate 122. A sensor is mounted on the third movable block 123. Rotating the screw 121 converts its rotational motion into linear motion of the third movable block 123, facilitating control of the travel of the third movable block 123 and thereby adjusting the height of the first sensor 124. During use, a booklet is placed on the first conveyor 130. The first movable block 125 abuts against the upper side of the booklet and is lifted by it. The height of the first sensor 124 is then adjusted by rotating the screw 121 until the first movable block 125 just triggers it, thereby measuring the booklet's thickness. A scale is provided on the second guide plate 122, allowing for intuitive control of the travel of the third movable block 123 and measurement of the booklet's thickness.

[0040] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 A limit plate 114 is provided between the flat plate 112 and the first conveyor 130. The flat plate 112 is provided with an inclined surface 113, which is inclined downward toward the limit plate 114. The flat plate 112 is provided with the inclined surface 113 so that the books stacked on the inclined surface 113 automatically tilt toward the first conveyor 130. After the books pass over the limit plate 114, they automatically slide out in the conveying direction. The limit plate 114 is provided so that the books abut against the limit plate 114 during the rising process of the flat plate 112, preventing the books from tipping over in the conveying direction. The thickness of the books can be determined by the scale on the second guide plate 122. By manually setting the stroke of each rise of the flat plate 112, only one book enters the first conveyor 130 each time after passing the limit plate 114, ensuring that the books are conveyed one by one.

[0041] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 3 The first conveyor 130 includes a support assembly, an eighth linear module 134, a ninth linear module 135, and a second suction cup 133. The support assembly includes two pallets 131, with the second suction cup 133 positioned between the two pallets 131. The eighth linear module 134 drives the second suction cup 133 in the conveying direction, while the ninth linear module 135 drives the second suction cup 133 in the vertical direction. After a booklet is placed on the pallet 131 of the first conveyor 130, the ninth linear module 135 drives the second suction cup 133 upward, where it holds the booklet. The eighth linear module 134 then drives the second suction cup 133 in the conveying direction, delivering the booklet to the gluing mechanism.

[0042] It is also understandable that, with reference to Figure 3Two third guide plates 136 are symmetrically provided on the support plate 131 to guide the transport of the booklet and prevent the booklet from shifting when the second suction cup 133 moves. In addition, a pulley 132 is also provided on the support plate 131 to reduce the friction between the booklet and the support plate 131.

[0043] It is understandable that, referring to Figures 4 to 6 The gluing mechanism includes a first bracket 261, a first linear module 250, and a first glue box 220. The first bracket 261 is equipped with a support roller 262, and the first glue box 220 is equipped with a set of glue rollers 221, which are arranged above the support rollers 262. The first linear module 250 drives the first glue box 220 to move vertically. The first glue box 220 is equipped with a sensing component, which is electrically connected to the first linear module 250. The first linear module 250 drives the first glue box 220 to descend. After the sensing component senses a book, the first glue box 220 starts to glue the book. The support rollers 262 provide support for the book, ensuring stability of the glue rolling.

[0044] It is understandable that, referring to Figures 4 to 6 The first glue box 220 is provided with a glue roller 221 and a glue coating roller 222. The glue rollers 221 and 222 abut against each other to form a glue storage position. A second glue box 230 is provided on both sides of the first glue box 220. A glue pump assembly is provided in the second glue box 230. The glue pump assembly transfers the glue in the second glue box 230 to the first glue box 220, and then outputs the glue to the glue storage position through the first glue box 220. After the glue is delivered from the first glue box 220 to the glue storage position, the glue is stored in the glue storage position. After the glue coating roller 222 and the glue rolling roller 221 rotate, the glue evenly adheres to the glue coating roller 222 and the glue rolling roller 221. The first glue box 220 continuously replenishes glue to the glue storage position, so that the surfaces of the glue coating roller 222 and the glue rolling roller 221 are always coated with glue, maintaining the stability of the glue rolling.

[0045] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The first glue box 220 is provided with a first flow channel 225, and the first flow channel 225 is provided with multiple glue outlets 226. The glue outlets 226 are arranged toward the glue storage position. The side wall of the second glue box 230 is provided with a second flow channel 232 in the vertical direction. The first flow channel 225 is connected to the second flow channel 232. The glue is transported to the first flow channel 225 along the second flow channel 232 through the glue pump assembly, and finally sent out from the glue outlet 226 to the glue storage position to replenish the glue in the glue storage position.

[0046] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6The first glue box 220 is provided with a third flow channel 227. The third flow channel 227 is arranged in a vertical direction. The lower end of the third flow channel 227 is connected to the second glue box 230. The third flow channel 227 is also connected to the first flow channel 225. A baffle is provided between the third flow channel 227 and the first flow channel 225. The third flow channel 227 is provided to allow excess glue in the first flow channel 225 to flow back into the second glue box 230 through the third flow channel 227. The baffle is provided between the first and third flow channels 225. When the amount of glue in the first flow channel 225 increases, the glue flows over the baffle and enters the second flow channel 232. This prevents the glue in the first flow channel 225 from being diverted by the third flow channel 227, thereby ensuring the glue level in the first flow channel 225 and maintaining a stable glue level.

[0047] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 Fourth flow channels 224 are defined on the sidewalls of the first glue box 220 at both ends of the glue storage area. One end of the fourth flow channel 224 corresponds to the glue storage area, and the other end of the fourth flow channel 224 communicates with the second glue box 230. The inlet of the fourth flow channel 224 is located above the glue roller 221 and the glue coating roller 222. When the glue in the glue storage area increases and the glue level exceeds the inlet of the fourth flow channel 224, the glue flows into the fourth flow channel 224 and then flows back into the second glue box 230 along the fourth flow channel 224, preventing glue overflow and saving costs.

[0048] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The sensing assembly includes a second sensor 211 and a second movable block 212. The second sensor 211 is positioned above the second movable block 212, which is vertically movable relative to the first glue box 220. The upward movement of the second movable block 212 triggers the second sensor 211. As the first glue box 220 descends, the second movable block 212 contacts the book and moves upward until the second movable block 212 triggers the second sensor 211. The first glue box 220 stops descending, and the glue roller 221 rotates, cooperating with the support roller 262 to glue the book. By adjusting the trigger stroke of the second movable block 212, the pressure applied by the glue roller 221 on the book can be adjusted, achieving different glue rolling effects.

[0049] It should be noted that, referring to Figure 6The glue pump assembly includes a motor 241 and two meshing gears 242. The motor 241 drives the two gears 242 to rotate. A delivery channel 231 is defined on the bottom wall of the second glue box 230. The meshing positions of the two gears 242 are located within the second delivery channel 231, which communicates with the second flow channel 232. The motor 241 drives the two gears 242 to rotate, and the teeth of the two gears 242 move the glue, driving the glue from the delivery channel 231 to the second flow channel 232, and then along the second flow channel 232 into the first flow channel 225, achieving rapid glue delivery and a simple and stable structure.

[0050] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 5 A pressing paper board 223 is provided on the lower side of the first glue box 220. When the booklet is glued, when the glue roller 221 presses down on the booklet, the end of the booklet away from the glue roller 221 will tilt up, causing the booklet to deviate. When glue is rolled, the pressing paper board 223 presses down on the booklet to prevent the booklet from tilting up and improve the stability of glue rolling.

[0051] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The spreading assembly includes a first push plate assembly 310 and a first suction cup 340. The first suction cup 340 is located below the bending assembly. The first push plate assembly 310 cooperates with the first suction cup 340 to spread the bottom page. The first suction cup 340 holds the bottom page, and then the first push plate assembly 310 pushes the book, causing the book body to move horizontally, spreading the bottom page.

[0052] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The bending assembly includes a second push plate assembly 350, a second linear module 334, a first baffle 331, and a first pressure roller 333. The first baffle 331 and the first pressure roller 333 are spaced apart in the horizontal direction. The second linear module 334 simultaneously drives the first baffle 331 and the first pressure roller 333 to move in the vertical direction, and the second push plate assembly 350 drives the book to move in the conveying direction. The first suction cup 340 releases the bottom page, and the blowing element blows the bottom page up. The bottom page enters between the first baffle 331 and the first pressure roller 333. The first pressure roller 333 descends, causing the first pressure roller 333 to abut against the book. Then, the second push plate assembly 350 drives the book to move. During the movement of the book, the bottom page is gradually bent to the outer surface of the book and compacted by the first pressure roller 333, ensuring that the bottom page is firmly bonded. It should be noted that the second linear module 334 can be a pneumatic linear slide module or an electric linear slide module.

[0053] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8The bending assembly is further provided with a first guide plate 332, the upper end of which is tilted toward the first baffle 331. The guide plate bends toward the first baffle 331, and the bottommost page extends along the guide plate between the first baffle 331 and the first pressing roller 333. The guide plate guides the bottommost page toward the first baffle 331, thereby increasing the success rate of the bottommost page being bent toward the outside of the book when the first push plate assembly 310 pushes the book.

[0054] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The first push plate assembly 310 includes a third linear module 318, a fourth linear module 317, a second bracket 311, and a first push plate 312. The third linear module 318 drives the second bracket 311 to move horizontally. The fourth linear module 317 and the first push plate 312 are both arranged on the second bracket 311. The fourth linear module 317 drives the first push plate 312 to move vertically. The fourth linear module 317 drives the first push plate 312 to move vertically to avoid interference between the first push plate 312 and the book. The third linear module 318 enables the first push plate 312 to move horizontally, and the first push plate 312 pushes the book to move. It should be noted that the third linear module 318 can be an electric linear slide module, and the fourth linear module 317 can be a pneumatic linear slide module.

[0055] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 9 The second bracket 311 is provided with a ridge pressing assembly, which includes a fifth linear module 316, a connecting plate 314 and a ridge pressing plate 313. The fifth linear module 316 drives the connecting plate 314 to move in a vertical direction. The connecting plate 314 is slidingly connected to the ridge pressing plate 313. A spring 315 is connected between the connecting plate 314 and the ridge pressing plate 313. The fourth linear module 317 drives the first push plate 312 downward, so that the booklet is bent and glued and then abuts against the first push plate 312. Then, the fifth linear module 316 drives the connecting plate 314 downward, which drives the spine pressing plate 313 downward. The spine pressing plate 313 abuts against the booklet and presses the spine on the booklet. When the spine pressing plate 313 presses down on the booklet, the spine pressing plate 313 receives the reaction force of the booklet, driving the spine pressing plate 313 upward. When the spine pressing plate 313 moves upward, the spine pressing plate 313 stretches the spring 315, thereby preventing damage to the booklet while increasing the pressure of the spine pressing plate 313 on the booklet, thereby facilitating the pressing of the spine on the booklet. It should be noted that the fifth linear module 316 can be a pneumatic linear slide module or an electric linear slide module.

[0056] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8The second conveyor 320 includes a first conveyor 321, a second conveyor 322, a first cylinder 323, and a roller assembly. The roller assembly is positioned below the second conveyor 322. The first conveyor 321 and the second conveyor 322 are rotatably connected. The first cylinder 323 drives the second conveyor 322 to rotate so that the second conveyor 322 and the roller assembly are connected. An air outlet and a first suction cup 340 are positioned between the first conveyor 321 and the second conveyor 322. After the bottom page of the book is flipped, glued, and pressed, the first cylinder 323 drives the second conveyor 322 to rotate downward, transporting the book to the roller assembly, compacting the bottom page and preventing it from falling off. The roller assembly is positioned below the discharge end of the second conveyor 322, and the first push plate assembly 310 is positioned above the second conveyor 322, improving space utilization and reducing occupied volume.

[0057] Specifically, refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The pressure roller assembly includes a third bracket 364, a second cylinder 363, a first roller set 361, and a second roller set 362. The first roller set 361 is fixed to the third bracket 364, and the second roller set 362 is movably mounted on the third bracket 364. The second cylinder 363 drives the second roller set 362 to move away from or toward the first roller set 361. The third bracket 364 is also provided with a second baffle. When the second conveying device 322 docks with the pressure roller assembly, the second baffle rises, stopping the book in front of the second baffle. The second cylinder 363 then drives the second roller set 362 toward the first roller set 361, while the second baffle descends. The second roller set 362 and the first roller set 361 cooperate to roll the book, pressing it and improving the adhesion of the bottom page. The first roller set 361 and / or the second roller set 362 rotate to deliver the book.
