Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of filter element production technology, specifically an automatic stacking machine for filter element materials. [Background Technology]

[0002] In the filter cartridge manufacturing industry, rolled filter cartridges are made of two or more layers of non-woven fabric and powder materials, which are heated and compounded to form the cartridge. Then, they are cut into slices using a cross-cutting machine. The cut filter cartridge slices need to be manually stacked one by one. Only after they are neatly stacked by hand can they enter the next rolling process. Manual stacking requires someone to collect the materials continuously. During the manual stacking process, the powder material in the middle of the non-woven fabric is easily spilled and damaged. This results in low production efficiency, high labor costs, and is not conducive to the automation of manufacturing equipment, controlling the production rhythm, or improving the stacking efficiency of the semi-finished filter cartridge slices.

[0003] In a Chinese patent for an automatic collection device for semi-finished filter element pieces (patent number: CN212639176U), the device includes a reciprocating feeding mechanism, a clamping mechanism, and a lifting mechanism. The clamping mechanism is located on the reciprocating feeding mechanism, and the lifting mechanism is located directly below the clamping mechanism. The reciprocating feeding mechanism includes a servo motor, a belt guide assembly, and a lever. The clamping mechanism includes a load-bearing beam, a cylinder, and a cylinder clamping bar. The lifting mechanism includes a stepper motor, a lead screw and slider assembly, and a lifting platform. The clamping mechanism clamps the slit filter element pieces and moves them back and forth... The feeding mechanism drives the clamping mechanism to reciprocate. The filter element pieces are laid flat on the lifting platform. When the stacking height exceeds a certain position, the lifting platform automatically descends. After stacking to the set height, it automatically stops. This device replaces manual collection of filter element pieces, has a high degree of automation, improves production efficiency, and reduces labor intensity and labor costs. However, this device uses a clamping method to fix the cut filter element pieces before conveying and stacking them. This can easily cause creases in the filter element material, affecting the processing quality. In addition, the stability is insufficient, affecting the stacking effect. [Utility Model Content]

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic stacking machine for filter materials to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic filter material stacking machine, comprising a base plate, two symmetrically arranged supports fixedly connected to one upper end of the base plate, a top frame fixedly connected to the upper end of the two supports, a translation adjustment mechanism provided on the top frame, two connecting columns fixedly connected to the lower end of the translation adjustment mechanism, an adsorption mechanism fixedly connected to the lower end of the two connecting columns, a lifting adjustment mechanism fixedly connected to the upper side wall of the base plate near the supports, a stacking plate hinged to the upper end of the lifting adjustment mechanism, and a PLC controller fixedly connected to the side wall of the supports, the PLC controller being electrically connected to one end of the translation adjustment mechanism and the lifting adjustment mechanism respectively;

[0006] The adsorption mechanism includes a negative pressure plate shell fixedly connected to two connecting columns. A negative pressure connector is provided on one side of the negative pressure plate shell. A negative pressure device is externally connected to the negative pressure connector through a hose. Negative pressure suction heads are provided on the lower side wall of the negative pressure plate shell in a uniform arrangement.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the translation adjustment mechanism includes a first motor fixed to one side of the top frame, the main shaft of the first motor extending through to the inner side of the top frame and fixedly connected to a lead screw, a nut plate being threaded onto the lead screw, and two connecting columns being fixedly connected to the lower side wall of the nut plate.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the inner sidewall of the top frame is fixedly connected with two symmetrically arranged sliding rods, both of which pass through the nut plate.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the lifting and adjusting mechanism includes a fixed groove shell fixed to the upper side of the machine base plate. A second motor is fixedly connected to one end of the fixed groove shell. The main shaft of the second motor passes through the fixed groove shell and is fixedly connected to a rotating rod. Two symmetrically arranged worm gears are fixedly connected to the rotating rod. Two worm wheels that mesh with the two worm gears are rotatably connected to the fixed groove shell through a rotating shaft. Two symmetrically arranged first rocker arms are fixedly connected to the side walls of the two worm wheels. Two symmetrically arranged second rocker arms are hinged to the upper ends of the two first rocker arms. The upper ends of the two second rocker arms are hinged to the bottom of the stacking shelf.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the inner wall of one end of the fixed groove shell is rotatably connected to the end of the rotating rod away from the second motor through a bearing seat.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a limiting rod is fixedly connected between the base plate and the top frame, a limiting sleeve is sleeved and slidably connected on the limiting rod, and one end of the limiting sleeve is fixedly connected to the stacking shelf.

[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model, locking wheels are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the machine base plate.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. This automatic stacking machine for filter materials, by setting an adsorption mechanism, the conveyor transports the filter element pieces to the bottom of the negative pressure plate shell. When the negative pressure equipment is working, a negative pressure is generated in the negative pressure plate shell through the negative pressure connector. At this time, the negative pressure suction head can use the negative pressure to adsorb and fix the filter element pieces. Compared with clamping fixation, this fixation is more convenient, stable and reliable, and can prevent the filter element pieces from being creased, thus improving the stacking quality.

[0015] 2. This automatic stacking machine for filter element materials, by setting a translation adjustment mechanism, starts the first motor to work and drives the lead screw to rotate. Since the lead screw is threadedly connected to the nut plate, the nut plate is forced to move, which can drive the adsorption mechanism fixed to the connecting column to translate, so as to realize the stacking and material transfer operation of filter element pieces, and the movement is stable.

[0016] 3. This automatic stacking machine for filter materials, by setting up a lifting adjustment mechanism, starts the second motor to drive the rotating rod to rotate. Since the two worm gears mesh with the two worm wheels respectively, the two worm wheels are driven to rotate in opposite directions. At this time, the two first swing rods can be driven to swing, which in turn drives the two second swing rods to swing. This can drive the stacking plate to move down to adjust the height, so as to continuously stack the filter material sheets. The stacking is more stable and the stacking effect is high. This can be repeated to achieve automatic stacking. [Attached Image Description]

Detailed Implementation Methods

[0023] Please see Figures 1-4 In this embodiment, an automatic stacking machine for filter materials is provided. This device is placed on one side of a conveyor for filter materials. The adsorption mechanism is located directly above the conveyor to adsorb and fix the filter materials. The machine includes a base plate 1. Two symmetrically arranged brackets 2 are fixedly connected to one upper end of the base plate 1. A top frame 3 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the two brackets 2. A translation adjustment mechanism is provided on the top frame 3. Two connecting columns 4 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the translation adjustment mechanism. The adsorption mechanism is fixedly connected to the lower end of the two connecting columns 4. A lifting adjustment mechanism is fixedly connected to the upper side wall of the base plate 1 near the brackets 2. A stacking plate 5 is hinged to the upper end of the lifting adjustment mechanism. A PLC controller 6 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the brackets 2. The PLC controller 6 is electrically connected to one end of the translation adjustment mechanism and the lifting adjustment mechanism, respectively. This means that all electrical equipment of this device is electrically connected to the PLC controller 6 and connected to an external power supply. The circuit involved is existing technology and can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art, so there is no need to elaborate. Both the adsorption fixing mechanism and the stacking plate 5 are equipped with displacement sensors to control the displacement stroke, which is existing technology.

[0024] The adsorption mechanism includes a negative pressure plate shell 7 fixedly connected to two connecting columns 4. A negative pressure connector 8 is connected to one side of the negative pressure plate shell 7. A negative pressure device is connected to the negative pressure connector 8 through a hose. A negative pressure suction head 9 is uniformly arranged on the lower side wall of the negative pressure plate shell 7, which is a common existing technology device. When the negative pressure device is working, a negative pressure is generated in the negative pressure plate shell 7 through the negative pressure connector 8. At this time, the negative pressure suction head 9 can use the negative pressure to adsorb and fix the filter element pieces. Compared with clamping fixation, this fixation is more convenient, stable and reliable, and can prevent the filter element pieces from being creased, thus improving the stacking quality.

[0025] like Figure 2As shown: The translation adjustment mechanism includes a first motor 10 fixed on one side of the top frame 3. The main shaft of the first motor 10 extends through to the inner side of the top frame 3 and is fixedly connected to a lead screw 11. A nut plate 12 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 11. Two connecting columns 4 are fixedly connected to the lower side wall of the nut plate 12. When the first motor 10 is started, it drives the lead screw 11 to rotate. Since the lead screw 11 is threadedly connected to the nut plate 12, the nut plate 12 is forced to move, which can drive the adsorption mechanism fixed to the connecting columns 4 to translate, thereby realizing the stacking and transfer operation of the filter element pieces. The movement is stable.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown: The inner sidewall of the top frame 3 is fixedly connected to two symmetrically arranged slide rods 13. Both slide rods 13 are set through the nut plate 12, so that the nut plate 12 maintains linear displacement.

[0027] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown: The lifting and adjusting mechanism includes a fixed slot housing 14 fixed to the upper side of the base plate 1. A second motor 15 is fixedly connected to one end of the fixed slot housing 14. The main shaft of the second motor 15 passes through the fixed slot housing 14 and is fixedly connected to a rotating rod 16. Two symmetrically arranged worm gears 17 are fixedly connected to the rotating rod 16. Two worm wheels 19, which mesh with the two worm gears 17, are rotatably connected to the fixed slot housing 14 via a rotating shaft 18. Two symmetrically arranged first rocker arms 20 are fixedly connected to the side walls of the two worm wheels 19. The upper ends of the two first rocker arms 20 are hinged to two symmetrically arranged second... The upper ends of the two second swing arms 21 are hinged to the bottom of the stacking plate 5. When the filter element material on the stacking plate 5 is stacked to a high height, the second motor 15 is started to work, driving the rotating rod 16 to rotate. Since the two worm gears 17 are respectively engaged with the two worm wheels 19, the two worm wheels 19 are driven to rotate in opposite directions. At this time, the two first swing arms 20 can be driven to swing, which in turn pushes the two second swing arms 21 to swing. This can drive the stacking plate 5 to move down to adjust the height, so as to continuously stack the filter element material, making the stacking more stable and the stacking effect higher.

[0028] like Figure 4 As shown: The inner wall of one end of the fixed groove shell 14 is rotatably connected to the end of the rotating rod 16 away from the second motor 15 through a bearing seat, so that the rotation of the rotating rod 16 is more stable.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown: A limiting rod 22 is fixedly connected between the base plate 1 and the top frame 3. A limiting sleeve 23 is sleeved on the limiting rod 22 and slidably connected. One end of the limiting sleeve 23 is fixedly connected to the stacking shelf 5, so that the stacking shelf 5 maintains a straight up and down displacement.

[0030] like Figure 1As shown: Locking wheels 24 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the base plate 1, which facilitates the displacement or fixation of this device.

[0031] Working Principle: When this device is used to automatically stack filter cartridge materials, the conveyor transports the filter cartridges to the area directly below the negative pressure plate 7. The negative pressure equipment operates, generating negative pressure in the negative pressure plate 7 via the negative pressure connector 8. At this time, the negative pressure suction head 9 uses the negative pressure to adsorb and fix the filter cartridges. Compared with clamping, this fixing is more convenient, stable, and reliable, and can prevent creases from forming on the filter cartridges, improving the stacking quality. Then, the first motor 10 is started, driving the lead screw 11 to rotate. Since the lead screw 11 is threadedly connected to the nut plate 12, the nut plate 12 is forced to move, which can drive the adsorption mechanism fixed to the connecting column 4 to move horizontally, realizing the stacking and material transfer operation of the filter cartridges. The movement is stable. When the filter element cut piece on the negative pressure suction head 9 is moved to directly above the stacking plate 5, the negative pressure equipment is turned off, and the filter element cut piece automatically falls onto the stacking plate 5. As the filter element cut piece material on the stacking plate 5 is stacked to a high height, the second motor 15 is started, driving the rotating rod 16 to rotate. Since the two worm gears 17 are respectively engaged with the two worm wheels 19, the two worm wheels 19 are driven to rotate in opposite directions. At this time, the two first swing rods 20 can be driven to swing, which in turn pushes the two second swing rods 21 to swing, which can drive the stacking plate 5 to move down to adjust the height, so as to continuously stack the filter element cut piece material. The stacking is more stable and the stacking effect is high. This process is repeated to achieve automatic stacking.

Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
