Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of linen stacking machine technology, and more specifically, to a linen stacking machine for the laundry industry. Background Technology
[0002] Linen stacking machines are mainly used in large laundry rooms in hotels, hospitals, factories, etc., to stack folded clothes, blankets, quilt covers and other linens.
[0003] Currently used linen stacking machines typically use a first conveyor belt to transfer linens to a second conveyor belt, which then transfers them to a switching platform. The platform is then activated, causing the folded linens to fall onto a third conveyor belt. This process is repeated to stack the linens. However, when the linens are placed on the third conveyor belt, they are in free fall from a considerable height. This can cause the linens to unfurl due to the airflow during free fall, resulting in uneven stacking. Furthermore, the unfurled linens need to be refolded, leading to repetitive work and reduced production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0040] The third conveyor roller 35 drives the third conveyor belt 36 and the fourth conveyor belt 37 to rotate, thereby moving the stacked linens to the placement platform 38.
[0041] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: The first motor 8 drives the screw 9 to rotate, which in turn drives the first transmission block 10 to move, which in turn drives the mounting frame 13 to move, which in turn drives the switch assembly to move, which in turn drives the linen to move, thereby changing the distance between the linen and the third conveyor belt 36, thereby reducing the time of free fall of the linen, thereby reducing the probability of the linen being unfolded, thereby reducing the possibility of uneven stacking, thereby reducing the possibility of rework of the linen in the future, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0042] Once the linens are at the appropriate height, the second motor 15 can be activated, which in turn drives the first transmission rod 16 to rotate, which in turn drives the two first gears 17 to rotate, which in turn drives the second transmission rod 18 to rotate, which in turn drives the first second gear 20 to rotate, which in turn drives the gear chain 21 to rotate, which in turn drives the second second gear 20 to rotate, which in turn drives the second first transmission rod 16 to rotate, which in turn drives the second transmission block 22 to rotate, which in turn drives the switch plate 23 to rotate, so that the linens that have moved onto the switch plate 23 can fall freely, thereby stacking the linens.
