Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of thin film processing technology, and in particular to a self-leveling device with an adjustment mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] During the film conveying process on the production line, when the film is installed on the hook and conveyed, the different degrees of film curling cause uneven leveling when the film passes through the coating process, resulting in dark shadows appearing on the local curved edges. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the present invention addresses the deficiencies of the existing technology and its main purpose is to provide a self-leveling device with an adjustment mechanism, which solves the problem of partial lifting during film transport, which makes the film prone to uneven leveling during the coating process.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a self-leveling device with an adjustment mechanism, comprising a crossbeam and a clamping member sliding on the crossbeam for clamping a film, a movable connector provided at the lower end of the crossbeam, and a guide member connected to the end of the connector away from the crossbeam; when the film moves with the clamping member into the guide groove opened in the guide member, the connector moves to drive the guide member to adjust the flatness of the film.

[0005] Furthermore, the guide includes two opposing guide plates, with a guide groove located between the two guide plates.

[0006] Furthermore, both the inlet and outlet ends of the guide plate are connected to symmetrically arranged first connecting plates and second connecting plates connected to the first connecting plates.

[0007] Furthermore, the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate are inclined, and when the two first connecting plates and the two second connecting plates are aligned, the inlet and outlet ends of the guide plate are both flared.

[0008] Furthermore, the connector includes a guide rod connecting the bottom of the crossbeam and a connecting rod that slides on the guide rod, with one end of the connecting rod away from the guide rod extending to the lower part of the guide and overlapping therewith.

[0009] Furthermore, a groove is provided at the connection between the connecting rod and the guide, and the groove engages with the guide.

[0010] Furthermore, the connecting rod is divided into an outer rod and an inner rod that are interlocked. The outer rod is sleeved with the guide rod, and grooves are formed on the outer rod and the inner rod.

[0011] Furthermore, the inner cavity of the outer rod is provided with a rotatable wheel, one side of which contacts the outer wall of the guide rod.

[0012] Furthermore, a pull rope is fitted onto the rotating wheel, with one end of the pull rope connected to the insertion end of the inner rod and the outer rod.

[0022] 40 Guide component, 41 Guide groove, 42 Guide plate, 421 First connecting plate, 422 Second connecting plate. Detailed Implementation

[0023] Please refer to Figure 1-3 As shown, this illustrates the specific structure of a preferred first embodiment of the present invention, which is a self-leveling device with an adjustment mechanism. It includes a crossbeam 10 and a clamping member 20 sliding on the crossbeam 10 for holding a film. A movable connecting member 30 is provided at the lower end of the crossbeam 10, and a guide member 40 is connected to the end of the connecting member 30 away from the crossbeam 10. When the film moves with the clamping member 20 into the guide groove 41 opened in the guide member 40, the connecting member 30 moves to drive the guide member 40 to adjust the flatness of the film. This self-leveling device, through the traction of the guide member 40, moves the film clamped on the clamping member 20 to the guide groove 41, thereby adjusting the levelness of the film, thus ensuring uniform leveling direction of the film product and solving the problem of leveling shadows.

[0024] Specifically, the film product is placed on the clamping member 20. With the traction of the driving member on the crossbeam 10, the clamping member 20 moves along the slider on the crossbeam 10. When the film product moves to the guide member 40, the lifted film product is leveled under the traction of the guide groove 41. When the film product is not lifted, it passes directly through the guide groove 41.

[0025] It should be noted that the driving component on the crossbeam 10 can be a chain drive mechanism or a belt conveyor mechanism, or other equipment that can drive the clamping component 20 to move on the crossbeam 10.

[0026] In addition, when it is necessary to level film products of different thicknesses, heights or shapes, the guide 40 can be moved by adjusting the connector 30 to adapt to different film products.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, exemplarily, the guide 40 includes two opposing guide plates 42, with a guide groove 41 located between the two guide plates 42. The opposing arrangement of the two guide plates 42 facilitates the entry of the film product between the two guide plates 42 and facilitates the guide groove 41 to pull and level the film product inside. In addition, the arrangement of the two guide plates 42 facilitates the entry of the film product and also avoids the accumulation of residual liquid when the coating liquid is applied to the film product.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, for example, the inlet and outlet ends of the guide plate 42 are both connected to symmetrically arranged first connecting plates 421 and second connecting plates 422 connected to the first connecting plates 421. There are four first connecting plates 421 and four second connecting plates 422, which are distributed in pairs on the two guide plates 42, that is, the inlet and outlet ends of the two guide plates 41.

[0029] Specifically, the first connecting plate 421 and the second connecting plate 422 are inclined. When the two first connecting plates 421 and the two second connecting plates 422 are aligned, the inlet and outlet ends of the guide plate 42 are both funnel-shaped. When the two guide plates 42 are vertical and have no inclination, the film product entering between the two guide plates 42, if it is warped, will move and contact the end wall of the guide plate 42. This will increase the warping degree of the film product due to compression, thus affecting the coating effect. Therefore, the first connecting plate 421 is fixed on the inlet and outlet end walls of the two guide plates 42. The inclined connecting plate 421 is inclined so that the warped film product entering the guide groove 41 from the first connecting plate 421 can be repaired under the curvature of the first connecting plate 42 to improve the quality of the coating process.

[0030] In addition, to increase the curvature of the first connecting plate 421, a second connecting plate 422 is fixed on the basis of the first connecting plate 421 to form a flared structure, which can better adjust the warped film product.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, exemplarily, the connector 30 includes a guide rod 31 connecting to the bottom of the crossbeam 10, and a connecting rod 32 sleeved and sliding on the guide rod 31. One end of the connecting rod 32, away from the guide rod 31, extends to the lower part of the guide member 40 and overlaps with it. When the film product clamped on the clamping member 20 cannot contact the guide plate 42, the connecting rod 32 can be driven to slide up and down on the guide rod 31, allowing the guide plate 42 to contact the clamping member 20.

[0032] It should be noted that the connecting rod 32 can be provided with a threaded locking structure, that is, a screw is inserted into one side of the connecting rod 32, and the connecting rod 32 is locked onto the guide rod 31 by turning the screw. Of course, there are other connection methods, but these are all conventional connection methods, and will only be briefly described here.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, for example, a groove 323 is provided at the connection between the connecting rod 32 and the guide 40, and the groove 323 is engaged with the guide 40. Although the guide plate 42 can level the raised part of the film product by pulling it, the thickness of different film products is different. Therefore, although a guide rod 31 and a connecting rod 32 sliding on the guide rod 31 are provided, the guide plate 42 located on the connecting rod 32 needs to be effectively limited with the connecting rod 32 to maintain the temperature. If the guide plate 42 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 32, it will affect the subsequent modification and replacement of the guide plate 42. Therefore, a groove 233 is provided on the connecting rod 32, and the guide plate 42 is inserted into the groove 233 to form a snap-fit, which not only ensures the stability of the guide plate 42, but also facilitates the disassembly of the guide plate 42 by the staff.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, for example, the connecting rod 32 is divided into an outer rod 321 and an inner rod 322 that are inserted into each other. The outer rod 321 is sleeved with the guide rod 31, and the groove 323 is formed on the outer rod 321 and the inner rod 322. In order to adjust the distance between the two guide plates 42 so that the two guide plates 42 can adapt to different film products, the connecting rod 32 that carries the guide plate 42 is divided into an outer rod 321 and an inner rod 322. The outer rod 321 is sleeved with the guide rod 31, while the inner rod 322 is inserted into the inner cavity of the outer rod 321. There are two grooves 233, one on the outer rod 321 and one on the inner rod 322. As the inner rod 322 moves into the inner cavity of the outer rod 321, the distance between the two guide plates 42 decreases. This arrangement enhances the ability of the guide plate 42 to adapt to different types of film products.

[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, for example, the inner cavity of the outer rod 321 is provided with a rotatable wheel 34, and one side of the wheel 34 contacts the outer wall of the guide rod 31 that protrudes from the outer rod 321.

[0036] In one embodiment, one end of the rotating wheel 34 is connected to a motor and is installed on the outer wall of the outer rod 321 along with the motor. The output shaft passes through the inner cavity of the outer rod 321 and is connected to the rotating wheel 34. The rotating wheel 34 is driven to rotate by the motor. Due to the contact between one side of the rotating wheel 34 and the guide rod 31, the outer rod 321 can move up and down along the guide rod 31 through the friction between the rotating wheel 34 and the guide rod 31.

[0037] In another embodiment, a pull rope 35 is fitted onto the rotating wheel 34, with one end of the pull rope 35 connected to the insertion end of the inner rod 322 and the outer rod 321. Because the rotating wheel 34 has an inner opening in its middle, the pull rope 35 is wound around the inner opening. As the rotating wheel 34 rotates, the pull rope 35 pulls the inner rod 322 towards the inner cavity of the outer rod 321, thereby reducing the distance between the guide plate 42 mounted on the upper part of the inner rod 322 and the guide plate 42 on the outer rod 321.

[0038] The inner cavity of the outer rod 321 is provided with a spring 36, one end of which is connected to the inner rod 322. The tail end of the spring 36 away from the outer rod 321 is fixed to the inner wall of the outer rod 321. In addition, in order to allow the inner rod 322, which moves within the inner cavity of the outer rod 321, to return to its original position, a spring 36 is installed within the inner cavity of the outer rod 321. One end of the spring 36 is fixed to the inner rod 322, and the other end is fixed to the inner wall of the outer rod 321, so that when the inner rod 322 is not pressing against it, the spring 36 can drive the inner rod 322 to return to its original position.

[0039] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not constitute any limitation on the technical scope of the present utility model. Therefore, any minor modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
