[0075] When the bottom support semi-finished product is transferred to the rotating disc punching and distributing device 5 through the grabbing station 10, the knife die mechanism 33 starts to work. The knife die mechanism 33 is specially designed according to the shape and size requirements of the bottom support finished product. Its working principle is that mechanical power (such as hydraulic or pneumatic drive) is used to make the knife die punch the bottom support semi-finished product. The shape and position of the blade of the knife die are accurately matched with the waste part that needs to be removed from the bottom support semi-finished product. In the punching process, the knife die quickly descends and cuts into the bottom support semi-finished product, separates the excess waste from the bottom support semi-finished product, and thus forms a bottom support finished product shape that meets the requirements. This punching method is a high-efficiency forming method, which can quickly process the bottom support semi-finished product into the final product shape, and can adapt to the production of bottom supports of different specifications by adjusting the parameters (such as the position of the blade and the punching depth) of the knife die;

[0076] After the die-cutting mechanism 33 completes the die-cutting, the second suction cup mechanism 34 starts to work, and the second suction cup mechanism 34 adsorbs the finished product and waste through negative pressure, and the layout and suction force of the suction cup 19 are designed to effectively adsorb the finished product and waste, respectively. After the suction cup 19 adsorbs the finished product and waste, they are transported to different areas by a mechanical arm or a conveyor belt (which can be part of the rotary die-cutting and material separation device 5), generally, the finished product is transported to a finished product collection area, and the waste is transported to a waste recycling area, thereby realizing efficient material separation operation.

[0077] The rotary die-cutting and material separation device 5 is the last main processing link of the entire production equipment, and it closely cooperates with the front annular track device 1 and each work station. The annular track device 1 accurately transports the semi-finished product to the rotary die-cutting and material separation device 5, and after die-cutting and material separation, the product completes the final processing flow, realizing the complete automatic production process from raw materials to finished products.

[0078] Through the design of the rotary die-cutting and material separation device 5, the accurate die-cutting of the die-cutting mechanism 33 ensures that the edges of the finished product are neat and the size is accurate. Compared with manual cutting or other inaccurate cutting methods, it can effectively avoid quality problems such as rough edges and size deviation, improve the quality and appearance consistency of the finished product, and make it more meet the market requirements for product quality. This accurate die-cutting can also ensure the structural integrity of the finished product, avoid damaging the internal structure (such as the combined part of the foaming glue and the flat paper) of the product during the die-cutting process, and further improve the product quality. The automatic operation of the rotary die-cutting and material separation device 5 greatly improves the production efficiency. The die-cutting mechanism 33 can quickly die-cut the semi-finished product, and the second suction cup mechanism 34 can timely separate and transport the finished product and waste. The whole process is continuous and efficient. Compared with the traditional manual die-cutting and material separation method, the device can process a large number of semi-finished products in a short time, meet the needs of large-scale production, and reduce production time and labor cost.

[0079] In the embodiment of the utility model, the surface of the plurality of tooling pieces 13 is provided with a groove 25.

[0080] The recess 25 is provided on the surface of the tooling piece 13 as a key component for carrying materials, and is used to better fix and position the materials. During the whole production process, the tooling piece 13 needs to carry materials such as cutting paper, foaming glue and flat paper, and ensure that the positions of the materials are stable during the transportation on the annular track 12 and the processing at each station. Specifically, for the cutting paper, when it is transported onto the tooling piece 13, the recess 25 can provide a certain limiting effect to prevent the cutting paper from being displaced before the punching and bending operations, especially at the folding station 6, the recess 25 can help the cutting paper better fit the tooling piece 13 when the cutting paper is processed by the first punching mechanism 14, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the punching operation. For the foaming glue, at the filling station 7, the recess 25 can assist in positioning the foaming glue in the concave tray on the tooling piece 13. Since the foaming glue itself has a certain elasticity and irregular shape, the recess 25 can constrain the foaming glue, so that the foaming glue can accurately enter the appropriate position of the concave tray when being filled by the second punching mechanism 21 (the pressing plate 23). For the flat paper, at the positioning station 29, the recess 25 also helps to accurately position the flat paper on the surface of the concave tray with the foaming glue, thereby providing better initial position conditions for the pressing operation at the pressing station 30.

[0081] The presence of the recess 25 enables various materials to be more accurately positioned on the tooling piece 13, whether it is the initial placement of the cutting paper, the filling of the foaming glue, or the positioning of the flat paper. The limiting effect of the recess 25 can achieve higher accuracy, which helps to improve the quality and consistency of the product. For example, during the production process, accurately positioned materials can ensure the accuracy of punching, filling, pasting and other operations, so that the final produced cake box bottom support is more accurate in size and the combination of each part is more compact.

[0082] It is apparent for those skilled in the art that the present application is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, but can be implemented in other concrete forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present application. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all aspects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the present application is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and all changes falling within the meaning and range of equivalent elements of the claims are intended to be embraced in the present application.
