[0013] Figure 1 This is a schematic structural diagram of the stretch-type thermoforming mechanism of the present invention.

[0014] Figure 2 This is a schematic structural diagram of the stretch packaging machine of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] The accompanying drawings show the structure of the present invention, and the following further describes its relevant details in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 The stretch thermoforming mechanism includes a base 11, on which a guide column 12 is provided, preferably four guide columns distributed at the corners of the base 11, an upper die base 13 is fixed on the top of the guide column 12, an upper die 14 is provided at the lower end of the upper die base 13, and a plurality of mold cores that can be lifted and lowered are provided in the upper die 14, and the mold cores are provided with a first lifting power source 15, a lower die base 16 is slidably provided on the guide column 12, and the lower die base 16 is provided with a second lifting power source 18, and a lower die 17 is provided at the upper end of the lower die base 16, and the lower die 17 is provided with a plurality of mold cavities, which cooperate with the mold core, and a heating component is provided in the upper mold 14 and the lower mold 17, and the heating component is preferably a heating tube embedded in the upper mold 14 and the lower mold 17; a thermoplastic film material, such as a PVC film material, is unwound between the upper mold 14 and the lower mold 17, and the thermoplastic film material is close to the lower end of the upper mold 14, and the base 11 can move back and forth along the unwinding direction of the thermoplastic film material. The corresponding base 11 is equipped with a third power source 19, and when pulling and forming, the base 11 moves synchronously with the thermoplastic film material.

[0016] The working principle of the stretch-type thermoforming mechanism 1 of the present invention is that during the unwinding process of the thermoplastic film material, the third power source 19 drives the base 11 and the forming mold thereon to move a distance following the synchronous action. The distance is preferably a mold length of the forming mold in the moving direction. During this process, the second lifting power source 18 drives the lower mold 17 to rise along the guide column 12 and close the mold with the upper mold 14. The thermoplastic film material is pressed between the upper and lower molds 17 and is heated and softened under the action of the heating component. Then the first lifting power source 15 drives the core of the upper mold 14 to descend into the mold cavity of the lower mold 17. The corresponding thermoplastic film material is then stretched and formed to form a cavity that can accommodate the packaging material. After the pulling is completed, the mold core, lower mold 17 and base 11 are reset in sequence to perform the next stretching and forming process.

[0017] As a further improved specific implementation method, the first lifting power source 15 is located at the upper end of the upper mold base 13. The corresponding first lifting power source 15 is a motor and its cam connecting rod transmission component. The connecting rod passes through the upper mold base 13 and is connected to the mold core. The motor drives the cam connecting rod to realize the lifting of the model.

[0018] As a further improved specific implementation method, the second lifting power source 18 is located at the lower end of the base 11, and the corresponding second lifting power source 18 is a motor and its cam connecting rod transmission component. The connecting rod passes through the base 11 and is connected to the lower mold base 16 for transmission. The motor drives the cam connecting rod to realize the lifting of the lower mold base 16 and the lower mold 17.

[0019] As a further improved specific implementation method, the third power source 19 is a motor and its synchronous wheel and synchronous belt transmission components, and the corresponding base 11 is arranged on the slide rail. The base 11 is connected to the synchronous belt drive. The motor drives the synchronous wheel, and the synchronous belt coordinated with the synchronous wheel transmission further drives the base 11 to move back and forth along the slide rail.

[0020] In this embodiment, see the attached Figure 2 The stretch packaging machine comprises a frame on which are mounted a thermoplastic film unwinding mechanism 2, a traction mechanism 3, a loading mechanism, a film sealing mechanism 4, a tensioning mechanism 5, a marking mechanism 6, a slitting mechanism 7, and a waste collection mechanism 8. The frame is also equipped with the aforementioned stretch thermoforming mechanism 1. The aforementioned thermoplastic film unwinding mechanism 2, traction mechanism 3, loading mechanism, film sealing mechanism 4, tensioning mechanism 5, marking mechanism 6, slitting mechanism 7, and waste collection mechanism 8 are all conventional technologies and cooperate with the stretch thermoforming mechanism 1 for packaging. The specific structure is not described in detail here. The loading mechanism is located between the stretch thermoforming mechanism 1 and the film sealing mechanism 4 and is not shown in the figure.

[0021] The working principle of the stretch packaging machine of the present invention is that the thermoplastic film material unrolled by the unwinding mechanism 2 passes through the stretch forming mechanism 1 under the action of the traction mechanism 3 and the tensioning mechanism 5. The corresponding stretch forming mechanism 1 moves synchronously with the thermoplastic film material to perform heating and stretching forming, and a cavity is formed on the thermoplastic film material. After that, the loading mechanism feeds the package into the cavity, and then the upper film unrolled by the film sealing mechanism 4 is heat-sealed on the thermoplastic film material. Then, the marking mechanism 6 performs tracking and marking in sequence, the slitting mechanism 7 performs longitudinal and transverse cutting, and the waste collection mechanism 8 rewinds the waste material.

[0022] As a further improved embodiment, the traction mechanism 3 comprises a motor and its chain transmission component, which includes mating left and right chains and their corresponding sprockets, with clamping assemblies mounted on the chains. During traction, the motor drives the sprockets, which in turn drive the chains in rotational motion. The clamping assemblies on the chains grip the thermoplastic film material and move it. The clamping assemblies are automated, clamping at the beginning and releasing at the end.

[0023] As a further improved embodiment, the spacing between the left and right chains is adjustable, and the corresponding sprocket mounting blocks are equipped with mounting block slide rails and spacing adjustment screws. During adjustment, the screws are rotated, and the corresponding screw threads act to move the drive sprocket mounting blocks closer or further along the slide rails, thereby adjusting the spacing between the left and right chains to accommodate thermoplastic film materials of varying widths.

[0024] In summary, the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
