Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of aligning machines, in particular to an aligning machine with an anti-dislocation structure. Background Art

[0002] When transporting books after they have been cut, in order to facilitate the movement and handling of the books, multiple books need to be stacked and placed on a aligning machine, where they are aligned and then bundled.

[0003] For example, the automatic counting and aligning device for book bundling disclosed in publication number CN219361559U uses a limit shaft. When the books are being aligned, the books are located on the surface of the aligning device body and are driven. The limit shaft is then set to fit with the transmission of the books. Since the limit shaft is arc-shaped, the books will not be blocked during transmission, achieving a pressure effect and preventing the books from being affected during bundling. It is easy to be too loose or too tight, causing the books to be pressed and depressed, affecting the bundling effect.

[0004] When aligning books on the alignment machine, the above solution requires that the books be fed between two sets of push plates by a conveyor roller, and then the push rod is activated to push the two sets of push plates to contact both sides of the books to align the two sides of the books. However, this alignment method can only align the left and right sides of the books, and the front and back of the books may still be misaligned. Utility Model Content

[0024] A fixed plate 4 is fixed to the top of the body 1, a photoelectric sensor 11 is installed on the top of the fixed plate 4, a cylinder 5 is installed on one side of the fixed plate 4, a push plate 6 is fixed to one end of the cylinder 5, two sets of connecting plates 7 are provided on one side of the push plate 6, one side of the top of the connecting plate 7 is movably connected to a rotating plate 8 through a rotating shaft, a limit block 9 is fixed on one side of the connecting plate 7, a transmission mechanism 10 for driving the rotating plate 8 to rotate is provided on the top of the rotating plate 8, and the rotating plate 8 forms a rotating structure with the connecting plate 7 through the rotating shaft;

[0025] The transmission mechanism 10 includes a transmission shaft 101 fixedly connected to the top of the rotating plate 8, a spring 102 fixedly connected to the inside of the transmission shaft 101, one end of the spring 102 fixedly connected to the connecting block 103, a gear 104 slidably connected to the outside of the connecting block 103, and the inside of the gear 104 movably connected to the transmission shaft 101 through a bearing; a toggle block 105 fixedly connected to the inside of the gear 104, the outside of the toggle block 105 is engaged with the connecting block 103, and the outside of the gear 104 is meshed with a rack rod 106; both ends of the rack rod 106 are fixedly connected to the fixed plate 4, one side of the push plate 6 is fixedly connected to a vertical rod 13, and the inside of the vertical rod 13 is movably connected to a worm 15 through a bearing; The outer side of the worm 15 is meshedly connected with a worm wheel 16, and both ends of the worm wheel 16 are fixedly connected with a threaded rod 12, and one end of the threaded rod 12 is movably connected to the vertical rod 13 through a bearing; the outer side of the threaded rod 12 is threadedly connected to the connecting plate 7, and the interior of the connecting plate 7 is slidably connected with a slide rod 14, one end of the slide rod 14 is fixedly connected to the vertical rod 13, and a slide groove matching the slide rod 14 is provided inside the connecting plate 7, and a card slot matching the toggle block 105 is provided at one end of the connecting block 103, and a moving groove is provided inside the transmission shaft 101, and the moving groove is slidably connected to the connecting block 103, the connecting block 103 and the transmission shaft 101 constitute a sliding structure, and the gear 104 and the rack rod 106 constitute an engaged transmission structure.

[0026] When the book is aligned, the motor 2 drives the conveying roller 3 to rotate and the book is conveyed. When the photoelectric sensor 11 detects the book, the controller sends a signal to control the motor 2 to stop and start the two sets of cylinders 5. At this time, the book will stop between the two sets of connecting plates 7 and the rotating plate 8. The cylinder 5 can push the push plate 6 to move, and the push plate 6 can drive the two sets of connecting plates 7 and the rotating plate 8 to move. The transmission mechanism 10 on the top of the rotating plate 8 will move at this time, and the gear 104 will mesh with the rack rod 106 when moving, thereby rotating. At this time, since the gear 104 encounters less resistance when rotating, the internal toggle block 105 will engage with the connecting block 103 and drive the transmission shaft 101 to rotate. The transmission shaft 101 can drive the rotating plate 8 at the bottom to rotate. After the rotating rotating plate 8 contacts the book, it can push the two sides of the book to complete the alignment of the two sides of the book.

[0027] If the connecting plate 7 does not contact the book after the rotating plate 8 contacts the book, the push plate 6 will continue to move. At this time, the resistance encountered by the gear 104 during rotation will increase. After the inclined surface of the internal toggle block 105 abuts against the inclined groove inside the connecting block 103, it will push the connecting block 103 to move, causing the connecting block 103 to squeeze the spring 102 at one end and retract into the transmission shaft 101, canceling the engagement with the connecting block 103. At this time, the gear 104 will idle and will not drive the transmission shaft 101 to rotate. When the connecting plate 7 contacts the book, it will push and align the other two sides of the book, completing the overall alignment of the books and eliminating the misalignment of the books.

[0028] After alignment, the motor 2 will start again, the cylinder 5 will reset, and the push plate 6 will also be reset. At this time, the gear 104 will reverse and drive the rotating plate 8 to break contact with the book. When the size of the book changes, the worm 15 can be rotated to engage with the worm wheel 16, driving the two sets of threaded rods 12 to rotate, so that the threaded rods 12 and the two sets of connecting plates 7 are threadedly transmitted to adjust the distance between the two sets of connecting plates 7 and the rotating plate 8. The slide bar 14 will limit the moving connecting plate 7. In this way, through the above operations, the books transported in the alignment machine can be aligned on all four sides to prevent the books from being misplaced.

[0029] To sum up: when using an aligner with an anti-misalignment structure, first start the motor 2 to drive the multiple sets of conveyor rollers 3 to rotate, then place the books on the conveyor rollers 3, and the rotating conveyor rollers 3 transport the books to the position of the connecting plate 7 and the rotating plate 8 to align the books. This is the characteristic of the aligner with an anti-misalignment structure. The content not described in detail in this description belongs to the existing technology known to professional and technical personnel in this field.
