[0002] In the automated packaging of food and light industrial products like noodles, cable ties are widely used as a crucial packaging material for bundling and securing products, ensuring their stability and integrity during transportation and storage. Traditional cable tie bundling operations often rely on manual labor, which is not only inefficient but also prone to inconsistent bundling quality due to human error, increasing production costs and making quality control more difficult.

[0003] With the continuous advancement of industrial automation technology, production lines for products like noodles are gradually transitioning towards automation and continuous production. However, in the automated cable tie bundling process, achieving a continuous supply and efficient connection of cable ties has become a pressing technical challenge. Traditional cable tie supply methods often use single-roll cable tie reels. When a roll of cable tie is exhausted, the machine needs to be shut down for replacement, which not only interrupts the continuous operation of the production line, reduces production efficiency, but also increases the workload of operators.

[0004] In addition, although some automatic cable tie machines already exist on the market, most of them have problems such as complex structure, high cost, and difficult maintenance. They also lack support for the continuous online splicing function of double-roll cable ties, making it difficult to meet the modern production line's requirements for high efficiency, stability, and low cost.

[0032] As a preferred embodiment, the tape feeding mechanism 3 includes a roller frame 8 mounted on a frame, two tape feeding rollers 9 are rotatably mounted on the roller frame, and a pressure block 10 is mounted above the frame between the two tape feeding rollers. The bottom of the pressure block is conical, and gravity is used to press the feeding rollers. The straps on the two strapping discs pass through the pressure block and the tape feeding rollers. In addition, a fixed shaft 11 is installed at the fixed position of the pressure block on the frame, and a waist hole 12 is opened on the pressure block at the position corresponding to the fixed shaft, so that the pressure block can move up and down on the fixed shaft. Advantages of the optimized design of the tape feeding mechanism: (1) Improved tape feeding stability: By setting two tape feeding rollers on the roller frame and configuring a conical pressure block above them, gravity is used to naturally press the tape feeding rollers, effectively ensuring the stability of the strap during transportation, reducing the jamming phenomenon caused by strap sliding or offset, and improving the smoothness and reliability of the strap feeding. (2) Enhanced adjustment flexibility: By setting a fixed shaft on the frame and opening a waist hole on the pressure block, the pressure block can move up and down on the fixed shaft. This design allows fine-tuning according to the thickness and material of the cable ties to meet the usage requirements of cable ties of different specifications, thereby enhancing the adaptability and flexibility of the equipment.

[0033] A transition support roller 13 is rotatably mounted between the corresponding cable tie disc 2 and the feed roller on the roller frame 8. The design advantages of the transition support roller 13 are as follows: (1) Reduce wear and friction: Adding a transition support roller between the corresponding cable tie disc and the feed roller on the roller frame can effectively disperse the stress points of the cable tie during transportation, reduce direct friction and wear between the feed roller and the cable tie, and extend the service life of the equipment. (2) Improve transportation efficiency: The setting of the transition support roller makes the cable tie more stable during transportation, reduces speed fluctuations caused by uneven force, and thus improves the overall transportation efficiency.

[0034] As a preferred embodiment, the tape feeding mechanism further includes a spacer wheel 14 installed between the tape feeding roller and the tape connecting mechanism, and the straps of the two strapping discs 2 pass through the spacer wheel 14 on both sides. Advantages of the spacer wheel design: (1) Preventing the straps from being entangled: A spacer wheel is set between the tape feeding roller and the tape connecting mechanism, and the straps of the two strapping discs are arranged to pass through the spacer wheel on both sides. This design effectively avoids the problem of the double-rolled straps being entangled with each other during the conveying process, ensuring the independence and orderliness of the straps. (2) Improving the connection accuracy: The setting of the spacer wheel ensures that each roll of strap maintains a certain interval and independence before reaching the tape connecting mechanism, providing a clearer and more accurate interface for subsequent automatic connection, thereby improving the connection accuracy and success rate.

[0035] As a preferred embodiment, slot-type photoelectric switches 15 for monitoring cable ties are installed on the frame at positions corresponding to the spacer pulleys, the feed rollers, and the transition support rollers. The design advantages of the slot-type photoelectric switches are as follows: (1) Real-time monitoring and feedback: slot-type photoelectric switches are installed on the frame at positions corresponding to the spacer pulleys, the feed rollers, and the transition support rollers, which can monitor the running status of the cable ties in real time, including whether they exist, are offset, or are broken. This real-time monitoring mechanism provides immediate feedback to the equipment, which helps to promptly discover and deal with potential problems, avoiding production interruptions and losses. (2) Improved production safety: Through the monitoring of the slot-type photoelectric switches, the stability and safety of the cable ties during transportation and splicing can be ensured, reducing equipment failures or production accidents caused by cable tie anomalies, and improving the overall safety of the production line.

[0036] As a preferred embodiment, the movable pressure wheel assembly includes a movable pressure wheel frame 16 mounted on the frame, and a plurality of movable pressure wheels 17 are rotatably mounted on the movable pressure wheel frame. The fixed pressure wheel assembly includes a fixed pressure wheel frame 18 on the frame, and the fixed pressure wheel frame includes a plurality of fixed pressure wheels 19 rotatably mounted. A telescopic drive member 20 is mounted on the frame at the back position corresponding to the movable pressure wheel frame.

Specifically, the telescopic drive member can adopt a reciprocating linear drive device such as a cylinder or an electric push rod; wherein the plurality of movable pressure wheels 17 and the fixed pressure wheel 19 are arranged side by side and relative to each other along the moving direction of the cable tie. The design advantages of the movable pressure wheel assembly and the fixed pressure wheel assembly are as follows: (1) Improved docking accuracy: The movable pressure wheel assembly drives the movable pressure wheel to move toward the fixed pressure wheel through the telescopic drive member, thereby achieving accurate tightening of the cable tie. The plurality of movable pressure wheels and the fixed pressure wheels are arranged side by side and relative to each other along the moving direction of the cable tie 21, ensuring uniform force on the cable tie during docking and improving the accuracy and stability of docking. (2) Enhanced adaptability: This design allows the spacing between the movable and fixed pressure wheels to be adjusted according to the width and thickness of the cable tie, enhancing the adaptability of the equipment to cable ties of different specifications. At the same time, the flexibility of the movable pressure wheel assembly also facilitates maintenance and adjustment, reducing maintenance costs and time.
