Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of cotton swab production equipment, in particular to a conveying device for cotton swab production. Background Art

[0002] Cotton swabs, also known as wiping sticks, are small wooden or plastic sticks slightly larger than a matchstick that are wrapped with a small amount of sterilized cotton. They are mainly used in medical treatment to apply medicine, absorb pus and blood, etc. Cotton swabs play an indispensable role in medical health and daily health care.

[0003] The key steps in the cotton swab production process include gluing, rolling, drying and sterilizing, and packaging. Typically, glue is applied to one or both ends of the cotton swab stick, and the cotton is rolled at the gluing location. Once the cotton ball is formed, the semi-finished cotton swab is dried in a drying and sterilization device before being packaged. However, before entering the drying device, the glue on the semi-finished cotton swab sticks emerging from the cotton ball forming mechanism has not yet solidified, making them easily adhere to other semi-finished cotton swab sticks. These adhered cotton swab sticks are difficult to separate after the drying process, and even forcing them apart can easily cause the cotton balls on the cotton swabs to deform or fall off. Furthermore, stacked and messy cotton swabs not only affect the drying and sterilization process, but also hinder subsequent packaging. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention aims to propose a conveying device for cotton swab production to solve the problem in the prior art that semi-finished cotton swabs are prone to sticking together, and the stacked and messy cotton swabs not only affect the drying effect but also make subsequent packaging inconvenient.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution of the utility model is achieved as follows:

[0006] A conveying device for cotton swab production includes a box, a heating component, a conveying component, a cotton swab sorting component, and a sterilizing lamp. The heating component is arranged at the lower part of the box. An inlet and an outlet are respectively provided on both sides of the box. The conveying component passes through the inlet and outlet of the box. The cotton swab sorting component is arranged above the conveying component and at the inlet end of the box. The sterilizing lamp is arranged above the inside of the box.

[0007] After the cotton swabs are rolled by the cotton rolling equipment, they are sorted by the cotton swab sorting component on the conveying component, and then transported from the entrance of the box to the inside of the box for drying and sterilization. The continuously running conveying component then transports the dried and sterilized cotton swabs from the exit of the box to the packaging equipment for packaging.

[0008] The signature sorting assembly includes a first workbench, a second workbench, a signature pressing assembly, and a signature abutting assembly. The first workbench and the second workbench are arranged on both sides of the conveying assembly, the signature pressing assembly is arranged above the first workbench, and the signature abutting assembly is arranged above the second workbench. The signature pressing assembly and the signature abutting assembly are relatively arranged on both sides of the conveying assembly.

[0009] Furthermore, the signature pressing assembly includes a first abutment plate, a first slider, a connecting plate, and a pressure plate. The first abutment plate is arranged on the first workbench. The top of the first abutment plate is provided with a first slide groove corresponding to the first slider. The first slider is slidably arranged in the first slide groove. One end of the connecting plate is connected to the top of the first slider, and the other end of the connecting plate is connected to one side of the pressure plate, and the pressure plate is arranged above the conveying assembly.

[0010] Furthermore, a first abutting bolt is provided on one side of the first abutting plate.

[0011] The first slider can slide in the first sliding groove and is fixed by a first tightening bolt. The height of the connecting plate can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the distance between the pressure plate and the conveyor belt to adapt to cotton swabs of different diameters.

[0012] Due to the height limitation of the pressing plate, the conveyor belt can only allow one cotton swab to pass under the pressing plate. Under the push of the conveyor belt, the stacked cotton swabs are automatically separated, rolled into the groove, and rotated in the groove, so that the cotton swabs entering the box can be fully dried and sterilized while rotating.

[0013] Furthermore, the first abutment plate has a first bending portion bent away from the conveying assembly at one end away from the box body, the pressure plate has a second bending portion bent upward at one end away from the box body, and the other end of the pressure plate extends to the outlet of the box body.

[0014] Furthermore, the abutment assembly includes a second abutment plate and a second slider. The second abutment plate is arranged on the second workbench. The second slider is arranged below the side of the second abutment plate away from the conveying assembly. The second workbench is provided with a second slide groove corresponding to the second slider.

[0015] Furthermore, a second tightening bolt is provided on the top of the second sliding block.
