Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of socks production, and relates to a sock shaping device, in particular to a shaping device for the production of middle-tube socks. Background Art

[0002] At present, some common sock setting machines on the market put socks on the mold and then introduce steam into the setting box to set the socks on the forming device. Finally, the forming device is sent out of the setting box and manually removed.

[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent document [Application Number: 202323201272.1; Publication Number: CN221254925U], which discloses a small sock shaping device. This device utilizes a half-plate as the overall framework, with the mold being restrained and supported by a first and second shafts, which assist in manually placing the mold. The second shaft is restrained by a first chute during movement, allowing the mold to rotate with the second shaft, enabling free rotation and facilitating the process of sock application.

[0004] Although the shaping equipment disclosed in this patent is convenient for workers to put on socks and can shape the socks simultaneously, it takes a certain amount of time to dry the socks. The sock shaping equipment can shape a small amount of socks, and drying and shaping cannot be carried out at the same time, resulting in reduced production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the above problems in the existing technology and propose a shaping device for the production of middle-tube socks. The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is: how to realize the shaping steps of multiple middle-tube socks production at the same time.

[0006] The purpose of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] A shaping device for producing middle-tube socks includes a body, a steam shaping machine is fixed on the top of the body, a transmission mechanism is provided below the steam shaping machine, and a drying mechanism is provided below the transmission mechanism. The transmission mechanism includes a motor fixed to the body, a first sprocket group is fixed to the output end of the motor, two chains are meshed on the first sprocket group, a second sprocket group is meshed on the two chains, a transmission belt is fixed between the two chains, and a plurality of supporting mechanisms are fixed on the transmission belt.

[0008] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: the operator puts the middle tube socks on the middle tube socks mold through the support mechanism, and the motor is operated to drive the first sprocket group (the first sprocket group and the second sprocket group are structures with sprockets fixed at both ends of the rotating shaft), the first sprocket group drives the chain to rotate clockwise, the second sprocket group and the transmission belt rotate along with the chain, and the transmission belt drives multiple support mechanisms with the middle tube socks into the steam setting machine, at this time the motor is paused to wait for setting, and at the same time the middle tube socks to be set can be put into the middle tube socks mold located outside the machine body, and the middle tube socks to be set can be continued after the setting of the middle tube socks is completed. The motor is run, and the steam-set mid-tube socks are moved along the conveyor belt between the two air discs. The wet socks after steam setting are dried by the drying mechanism. At the same time, the steam setting machine above the conveyor belt continues to steam-set the mid-tube socks that are put on the supporting mechanism during the steam process. After a certain period of time, the socks are dried and the motor is continued to run. The dried socks are rotated out along the conveyor belt and can be removed by the operator to put on new socks that need to be set. In this way, multiple setting steps in the production of mid-tube socks can be carried out at the same time, so that the production time is overlapped and the production efficiency is improved.

[0009] The first sprocket set and the second sprocket set are both rotatably connected to the fuselage through a rotating shaft.

[0010] With the above structure, the first sprocket group and the second sprocket group are both structures with sprockets fixed at both ends of the rotating shaft. The rotating shafts on the first sprocket group and the second sprocket group rotate inside the fuselage. The rotating shaft on the first sprocket group is fixed to the output end of the motor, so that the fuselage provides support force for the rotation of the transmission mechanism.

[0011] The support mechanism includes a fixed plate, which is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft. A square rod is fixed to one end of the rotating shaft away from the fixed plate. Multiple middle-tube sock molds are sleeved on the square rod. Springs are fixed between the multiple middle-tube sock molds, and a coil spring is fixed between the rotating shaft and the fixed plate.

[0012] With the above structure, the operator can push the middle tube sock mold left and right when putting the socks into the middle tube sock mold. The middle tube sock mold squeezes the spring to achieve temporary change of the spacing so that the operator has enough space to put the middle tube socks. At the same time, the middle tube sock mold can be moved back and forth. The rectangular limit between the middle tube sock mold and the square rod enables the square rod to rotate with the middle tube sock mold, the rotating shaft rotates with the square rod, and the coil spring deforms with the rotating shaft, so that the middle tube sock mold can temporarily adjust the direction so that the operator can put the middle tube socks at a more comfortable angle. After the operator puts on the middle tube socks and leaves the middle tube sock mold, the spring and the coil spring are reset to restore the initial vertical angle between the middle tube sock mold and the conveyor belt, as well as the initial spacing between the middle tube sock molds, so that the air circulation of the middle tube socks is more uniform during the steam setting process.

[0013] The fixing plates are all fixed on the conveyor belt, and the conveyor belt is made of silica gel.

[0014] With the above structure, the fixed plate and the conveyor belt are fixed by screws to prevent the conveyor belt from bending when it moves to the sprocket and causing pulling between the conveyor belt and the fixed plate. The silicone material is heat-resistant.

[0015] The drying mechanism includes a fan, two air discs are fixed at the output end of the fan, an air duct is fixed between the two air discs and the fan, and a tee is fixed on the air duct.

[0016] With the above structure, when the mid-tube socks need to be dried after steam setting, the fan is operated to supply air to the air duct, and the air duct supplies air to the two air discs through the tee at the same time. The two air discs blow air to the mid-tube socks between them until they are dry.

[0017] The two air discs are symmetrically distributed front to back, and both air discs are fixed to the position of the fuselage below the conveyor belt.

[0018] With the above structure, the air disc blows air to the wet mid-tube socks on both sides of the bottom of the machine body, making the drying more uniform and saving drying time.

[0019] Compared with the existing technology, this shaping equipment for the production of middle-tube socks has the following advantages:

[0020] 1. By setting up a transmission mechanism, multiple shaping steps in the production of middle-tube socks can be carried out at the same time, so that the production time is overlapped and the production efficiency is improved.

[0021] 2. By setting up a supporting mechanism, the spacing between the mid-tube socks molds can be temporarily changed so that the operator has enough space to put on the mid-tube socks, and the direction of the mid-tube socks mold can be temporarily adjusted so that the operator can put on the mid-tube socks at a more comfortable angle, which is convenient for operation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0029] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the shaping equipment for the production of middle-tube socks includes a body 1, a steam shaping machine 4 is fixed on the top of the body 1, a transmission mechanism 2 is arranged below the steam shaping machine 4, and a drying mechanism 5 is arranged below the transmission mechanism 2. The transmission mechanism 2 includes a motor 201 fixed on the body 1, and a first sprocket group 202 is fixed to the output end of the motor 201. Two chains 203 are meshed on the first sprocket group 202, and a second sprocket group 204 is meshed on the two chains 203. A transmission belt 205 is fixed between the two chains 203, and a plurality of supporting mechanisms 3 are fixed on the transmission belt 205. In this embodiment, the steam shaping machine 4 and the motor 201 are both existing technologies. The operator puts the middle-tube socks on the middle-tube socks mold 305 through the supporting mechanism 3, and runs the motor 201 to drive the first sprocket group 202 (the first sprocket group 202 and the second sprocket group 204 are both structures with sprockets fixed at both ends of the rotating shaft), and the first sprocket group 202 drives the chain 203 clockwise. The needle rotates, and the second sprocket group 204 and the conveyor belt 205 rotate with the chain 203. The conveyor belt 205 drives the multiple supporting mechanisms 3 with the middle tube socks to enter the steam setting machine 4. At this time, the motor 201 is paused to wait for setting. At the same time, the middle tube sock mold 305 located outside the fuselage 1 can be inserted into the middle tube socks to be set. After the middle tube socks are set, the motor 201 is continued to run, and the steam-set middle tube socks are moved between the two air discs 504 with the conveyor belt 205. The wet socks after steam setting are blown dry by the drying mechanism 5. At the same time, the steam setting machine 4 above the conveyor belt 205 continues to steam-set the middle tube socks set on the supporting mechanism 3 during the steam process. After a certain period of time, the socks are blown dry and the motor 201 is continued to run. The dried socks are rotated out with the conveyor belt 205 for the operator to take out and put in new socks that need to be set, so that multiple setting steps in the production of middle tube socks can be carried out at the same time, so that the production time is overlapped and the production efficiency is improved.

[0030] The first sprocket group 202 and the second sprocket group 204 are both rotatably connected to the fuselage 1 through a rotating shaft. In this embodiment, the first sprocket group 202 and the second sprocket group 204 are both structures with sprockets fixed at both ends of the rotating shaft. The rotating shafts on the first sprocket group 202 and the second sprocket group 204 both rotate within the fuselage 1, and the rotating shaft on the first sprocket group 202 is fixed to the output end of the motor 201.

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, the support mechanism 3 includes a fixed plate 301, a rotating shaft 302 is rotatably connected to the fixed plate 301, a square rod 304 is fixed to one end of the rotating shaft 302 away from the fixed plate 301, a plurality of middle tube sock molds 305 are sleeved on the square rod 304, a spring 306 is fixed between the plurality of middle tube sock molds 305, a coil spring 303 is fixed between the rotating shaft 302 and the fixed plate 301, in this embodiment, the operator can push the middle tube sock mold 305 left and right when putting the socks into the middle tube sock mold 305, and the middle tube sock mold 305 squeezes the spring 306 to achieve temporary change of the spacing so that the operator has enough space to put the middle tube socks, and can move back and forth at the same time The rectangular limit between the tube sock mold 305, the middle tube sock mold 305 and the square rod 304 enables the square rod 304 to rotate along with the middle tube sock mold 305, the rotating shaft 302 rotates along with the square rod 304, and the coil spring 303 deforms along with the rotating shaft 302, so that the middle tube sock mold 305 can temporarily adjust its direction to facilitate the operator to insert the middle tube sock at a more comfortable angle. After the operator inserts the middle tube sock, he leaves the middle tube sock mold 305. At this time, the spring 306 and the coil spring 303 are reset to restore the initial vertical angle between the middle tube sock mold 305 and the conveyor belt 205, as well as the initial spacing between the middle tube sock molds 305, so that the middle tube sock has more uniform air circulation during the steam setting process.

[0032] The fixed plates 301 are all fixed on the conveyor belt 205, and the conveyor belt 205 is made of silicone. In this embodiment, the fixed plates 301 and the conveyor belt 205 are fixed by screws to prevent the conveyor belt 205 from bending when it moves to the sprocket, causing pulling between the conveyor belt 205 and the fixed plates 301. The silicone material is heat-resistant.

[0033] The drying mechanism 5 includes a fan 501, and two air discs 504 are fixed at the output end of the fan 501. An air duct 502 is fixed between the two air discs 504 and the fan 501, and a tee 503 is fixed on the air duct 502. In this embodiment, the fan 501 and the air disc 501 are both existing technologies and will not be described in detail below. When the mid-tube socks after steam setting need to be dried, the fan 501 is operated, and the fan 501 supplies air to the air duct 502. The air duct 501 simultaneously supplies air to the two air discs 504 through the tee 503. The two air discs 504 blow air to the mid-tube socks between them until they are dried.

[0034] The two air discs 504 are symmetrically distributed front and back, and both air discs 504 are fixed on the body 1 below the conveyor belt 205. In this embodiment, the air discs 504 blow air to the wet mid-tube socks on both sides below the body 1, making the drying more uniform and saving drying time.

[0035] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: when the operator puts the socks into the middle tube sock mold 305, the middle tube sock mold 305 can be pushed left and right, and the middle tube sock mold 305 squeezes the spring 306 to achieve temporary change of the spacing so that the operator has enough space to put the middle tube socks in. At the same time, the middle tube sock mold 305 can be moved back and forth, and the rectangular limit between the middle tube sock mold 305 and the square rod 304 makes the square rod 304 rotate with the middle tube sock mold 305, the rotating shaft 302 rotates with the square rod 304, and the coil spring 303 deforms with the rotating shaft 302, so that The direction of the middle tube sock mold 305 can be temporarily adjusted to facilitate the operator to insert the middle tube socks at a more comfortable angle. After the operator inserts the middle tube socks, he leaves the middle tube sock mold 305. At this time, the spring 306 and the coil spring 303 are reset to restore the initial vertical angle between the middle tube sock mold 305 and the conveyor belt 205, as well as the initial distance between the middle tube sock molds 305. The running motor 201 drives the first sprocket group 202 (the first sprocket group 202 and the second sprocket group 204 are both structures with fixed sprockets at both ends of the rotating shaft). The first sprocket group 202 with The moving chain 203 rotates clockwise, and the second sprocket set 204 and the conveyor belt 205 rotate with the chain 203. The conveyor belt 205 drives the multiple supporting mechanisms 3 with the middle tube socks to enter the steam setting machine 4. At this time, the motor 201 is paused to wait for setting. At the same time, the middle tube sock mold 305 located outside the machine body 1 can be inserted into the middle tube sock to be set. After the middle tube sock is set, the motor 201 is continued to run. The middle tube sock after steam setting is moved between the two air discs 504 with the conveyor belt 205, and the fan 501 is operated. The fan 501 blows air into the air duct 502. Air is supplied from the air duct 501 to the two air discs 504 simultaneously through the tee 503. The two air discs 504 blow air to the middle-tube socks between them until they are dried. At the same time, the steam setting machine 4 above the conveyor belt 205 continues to steam-set the middle-tube socks that are put on the support mechanism 3 during the steam process. After a certain period of time, the socks are dried and the motor 201 continues to operate. The dried socks are rotated out along the conveyor belt 205 and can be removed by the operator to put on new socks that need to be set, so that multiple setting steps in the production of middle-tube socks can be carried out at the same time.

[0036] In summary, by setting up a transmission mechanism and a support mechanism, multiple shaping steps in the production of mid-tube socks can be carried out at the same time, so that the production time is overlapped, the production efficiency is improved, and it is convenient for operators to put on the mid-tube socks at a comfortable distance and angle. The same distance is set to make the air circulation more uniform during steam shaping and blowing.
