Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of folding machines, and more particularly to a folding mechanism for a silicone paper folding machine. Background Technology
[0002] Silicone paper (baking paper) is widely used in food processing, baking and other fields. Its folding process is a key step to ensure the consistency of product size and shape.
[0003] The prior art discloses a pull-out silicone paper folding machine (publication number CN117963621A). Through the alternating operation of the first folding plate and the second folding plate, the silicone paper is folded into the shape of a pull-out tissue according to the design requirements. Clear and firm creases are formed between each layer of tissue, making it convenient for users to easily pull out and use.
[0004] However, the equipment needs to be stopped before feeding the folded silicone paper, which makes it impossible to continuously fold the silicone paper. This will inevitably affect the folding efficiency of the equipment. In addition, frequent start-stop operations will shorten the overall lifespan of the equipment and increase the frequency and cost of replacing parts. Utility Model Content
[0005] This utility model aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in the related art.
[0006] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to propose a folding mechanism for a silicone paper folding machine. By alternating the use of the first and second placement plates, continuous feeding is achieved during the silicone paper folding process without the need for machine stoppage. At the same time, automatic control of the first and second placement plates is realized, reducing manual intervention and ensuring efficient and stable folding.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a folding mechanism for a silicone paper folding machine, comprising a main body and a feeding mechanism. The feeding mechanism includes a feeding shell, a lifting rod, a first placement plate, a connecting plate, a pull spring, a trigger switch, a fixing plate, an electric telescopic rod, a second placement plate, a cutting disc, a shrinking mechanism, and a buffer mechanism. The feeding shell is mounted on the main body; the lifting rod slides through the feeding shell; the first placement plate is mounted on the top end of the lifting rod and slides within the feeding shell; the connecting plate is mounted on one end of the lifting rod; and the pull spring is sleeved on the feeding shell. The lifting rod is mounted on the main body, and one end of the pulling spring is connected to the connecting plate, while the other end of the pulling spring is connected to the unloading shell. The trigger switch is located inside the unloading shell. The fixing plate is mounted on the main body and is located on one side of the unloading shell. The electric telescopic rod is mounted inside the fixing plate. The second placement plate is slidably disposed inside the unloading shell. The cutting blade is mounted on the end of the second placement plate away from the electric telescopic rod. The retraction mechanism is disposed on the second placement plate. The buffer mechanism is disposed on the unloading shell and is connected to the connecting plate.
[0008] In addition, the folding mechanism of the silicone paper folding machine proposed in the above application may also have the following additional technical features:
[0009] Specifically, the feeding shell has a connecting hole, which is located on one side of the second placement plate.
[0010] Specifically, the shrinking mechanism includes a shrinking groove, a plurality of shrinking springs, and a shrinking plate, wherein the shrinking groove is formed in the second placement plate; the plurality of shrinking springs are all installed in the shrinking groove; the shrinking plate is slidably disposed in the shrinking groove, and the shrinking plate is connected to one end of the plurality of shrinking springs.
[0011] Specifically, the buffer mechanism includes a shrink cylinder, an extrusion rod, an exhaust port, and a one-way valve. The shrink cylinder is mounted on the feed shell. One end of the extrusion rod slides sealed within the shrink cylinder, and the other end of the extrusion rod is connected to the connecting disc. The exhaust port is located on the shrink cylinder. The one-way valve is mounted on the shrink cylinder.
[0012] The folding mechanism of this silicone paper folding machine, through the alternating use of the first and second placement plates, enables continuous feeding of silicone paper during the folding process without the need for machine stoppage. This not only improves the folding effect but also significantly reduces the inconvenience caused by frequent machine start-ups and shutdowns. Furthermore, the automatic control function of the first and second placement plates further enhances the automation level of the equipment.

[0018] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Rather, the embodiments of the present invention include all variations, modifications, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
[0019] The folding mechanism of the silicone paper folding machine according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0020] like Figure 1 - Figure 2 As shown, the folding mechanism of the silicone paper folding machine of this utility model embodiment includes a main body 1 and a feeding mechanism 2. The feeding mechanism 2 includes a feeding shell 21, a lifting rod 22, a first placement plate 23, a connecting plate 24, a pull spring 25, a trigger switch 26, a fixing plate 27, an electric telescopic rod 28, a second placement plate 29, a cutting blade 210, a shrinking mechanism 3, and a buffering mechanism 4. The feeding shell 21 is mounted on the main body 1.
[0021] It should be noted that the height of the trigger switch 26 is adjustable and can be installed on a threaded rod. The threaded rod is connected to the feed housing 21 by a thread, and the height of the trigger switch 26 can be adjusted by rotating the threaded rod, which is to control the amount of paper collected each time.
[0022] The lifting rod 22 slides through the unloading shell 21. A first placement plate 23 is installed at the top of the lifting rod 22 and slides within the unloading shell 21. A connecting plate 24 is installed on one end of the lifting rod 22. A pull spring 25 is sleeved on the lifting rod 22, with one end connected to the connecting plate 24 and the other end connected to the unloading shell 21. A trigger switch 26 is located inside the unloading shell 21.
[0023] It should be noted that the electric telescopic rod 28 is controlled by the trigger switch 26. When the first placement plate 23 moves down and contacts the trigger switch 26, the trigger switch 26 controls the output end of the electric telescopic rod 28 to extend. When the first placement plate 23 is no longer in contact with the trigger switch 26, the trigger switch 26 controls the output end of the electric telescopic rod 28 to retract. When the trigger switch 26 controls the electric telescopic rod 28 to retract, there needs to be a delay of 3 to 5 seconds to ensure that the first placement plate 23 is fully reset.
[0024] A fixing plate 27 is mounted on the main body 1, and the fixing plate 27 is located on one side of the unloading shell 21. An electric telescopic rod 28 is mounted inside the fixing plate 27. A second placement plate 29 is slidably disposed inside the unloading shell 21. A cutting blade 210 is mounted on the end of the second placement plate 29 away from the electric telescopic rod 28.
[0025] It should be noted that one end of the cutting blade 210 is triangular. The triangular cutting blade 210 can separate the silicone paper after the upper and lower folds, making it easier to cut the silicone paper.
[0026] The shrinking mechanism 3 is mounted on the second placement plate 29. The buffer mechanism 4 is mounted on the unloading shell 21 and is connected to the connecting plate 24.
[0027] Specifically, in actual use, relevant personnel need to quantitatively feed the folded silicone paper.
[0028] When the silicone paper is folded, it will fall onto the first placement plate 23. As the amount of silicone paper increases, it will push the first placement plate 23, causing the first placement plate 23 to move downward. The downward movement of the first placement plate 23 will cause the connecting plate 24 and one end of the pulling spring 25 to move downward. The downward movement of one end of the pulling spring 25 will cause the pulling spring 25 to be in a stretched state.
[0029] When the first placement plate 23 moves and contacts the trigger switch 26, the trigger switch 26 controls the output end of the electric telescopic rod 28 to move, which in turn pushes the second placement plate 29 and cuts the cutting blade 210, causing the cutting blade 210 to cut the silicone paper. At the same time, the second placement plate 29 continuously receives the folded silicone paper, and then the folded silicone paper on the first placement plate 23 can be unloaded.
[0030] After the first placement plate 23 is unloaded, it loses the pressure of the silicone paper. At this time, the tension spring 25, which is in a stretched state, pulls the connecting plate 24, causing the connecting plate 24 to move the lifting rod 22 and the first placement plate 23 upward. When the first placement plate 23 moves upward, it will no longer be in contact with the trigger switch 26. Then, the trigger switch 26 controls the electric telescopic rod 28 to drive the second placement plate 29 to reset. When the second placement plate 29 resets, the unloading shell 21 limits the folded silicone paper on the second placement plate 29, preventing the silicone paper from moving. After the second placement plate 29 resets, the silicone paper falls onto the first placement plate 23.
[0031] By alternating the use of the first placement plate 23 and the second placement plate 29, this equipment can achieve continuous feeding during the silicone paper folding process without stopping the machine. This not only improves the folding effect but also significantly reduces the inconvenience caused by frequent machine start-ups and shutdowns. In addition, the automatic control function of the first placement plate 23 and the second placement plate 29 further enhances the automation level of the equipment.
[0032] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, a connecting hole is provided on the feed shell 21, and the connecting hole is located on one side of the second placement plate 29.
[0033] It should be noted that the connecting hole ensures that the second placement plate 29 can slide within the feed shell 21 without being affected by the feed shell 21.
[0034] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the shrinkage mechanism 3 includes a shrinkage groove 31, multiple shrinkage springs 32 and a shrinkage plate 33, wherein the shrinkage groove 31 is formed in the second placement plate 29.
[0035] It should be noted that both the shrink plate 33 and the second placement plate 29 have an inclined end away from the electric telescopic rod 28. The purpose of this is that when the shrink plate 33 and the second placement plate 29 move toward the folded silicone paper, the two folded silicone paper can be inserted without pushing the silicone paper and affecting the folding quality of the silicone paper.
[0036] Multiple contraction springs 32 are installed in the contraction groove 31, and the contraction plate 33 is slidably disposed in the contraction groove 31, and the contraction plate 33 is connected to one end of the multiple contraction springs 32.
[0037] Specifically, in actual operation, when the second placement plate 29 receives the folded silicone paper, the folded silicone paper falls onto the shrink plate 33, causing the silicone paper to press against the shrink plate 33. This causes the shrink spring 32 to contract, and the shrink plate 33 to slowly move down. While ensuring the silicone paper is pressed, the second placement plate 29 can also hold a certain amount of folded silicone paper, giving the workers some time to move the silicone paper on the first placement plate 23.
[0038] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the buffer mechanism 4 includes a shrink cylinder 41, a pressing rod 42, a vent 43, and a one-way valve 44, wherein the shrink cylinder 41 is mounted on the discharge shell 21.
[0039] It should be noted that the exhaust volume per second of the exhaust port 43 needs to be much lower than the intake volume per second of the one-way valve 44. This results in a slower gas discharge rate from the contraction cylinder 41, which compresses the gas in the contraction cylinder 41 when the extrusion rod 42 moves upward, creating air pressure inside the contraction cylinder 41. This air pressure can affect the reset of the extrusion rod 42, thereby reducing the reset speed of the extrusion rod 42. During air intake, the exhaust port 43 and the one-way valve 44 can be used for synchronous air intake, so that the normal entry of gas will not affect the downward movement of the extrusion rod 42.
[0040] One end of the extrusion rod 42 is sealed and slides inside the shrink cylinder 41, and the other end of the extrusion rod 42 is connected to the connecting plate 24. The vent 43 is opened on the shrink cylinder 41, and the one-way valve 44 is installed on the shrink cylinder 41.
[0041] Specifically, during actual execution, when the connecting plate 24 moves downward, it will drive the squeezing rod 42 to move downward. The downward movement of the squeezing rod 42 will generate negative pressure in the shrinking cylinder 41. At this time, the one-way valve 44 opens, allowing air to enter the shrinking cylinder 41 through the one-way valve 44 and the exhaust port 43. When the connecting plate 24 moves upward, it will drive the squeezing rod 42 to squeeze the gas in the shrinking cylinder 41. At this time, the one-way valve 44 is closed, and only the exhaust port 43 exhausts the gas. Since the exhaust speed is slow, it will generate a certain air pressure in the shrinking cylinder 41, which will then limit the upward movement of the squeezing rod 42, making the reset speed of the squeezing rod 42 slower. This can prevent the first placement plate 23 from colliding with the second placement plate 29 when it resets.
[0042] In summary, the folding mechanism of the silicone paper folding machine of this utility model embodiment, through the alternating use of the first placement plate 23 and the second placement plate 29, enables continuous feeding of silicone paper during the folding process without the need for machine stoppage. This not only improves the folding effect but also significantly reduces the inconvenience caused by frequent machine start-ups and shutdowns. Furthermore, the automatic control function of the first placement plate 23 and the second placement plate 29 further enhances the automation level of the equipment.
