Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of template cutting tools, and in particular to a high-speed cotton applicator with a heating mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Flat die-cutting molds are commonly used tools in the packaging industry. They are equipped with blades that cut or crease packaging materials to meet usage requirements.
[0003] Typically, elastic material, specifically foam, is also provided on the cutting templates on both sides of the blade. This elastic material adheres to the cutting templates and is located on both sides of the blade, thus encasing the blade within it. The blade is only exposed when the elastic material is compressed during cutting. This design serves two purposes: first, it protects the blade, minimizing damage from impacts during non-working hours; second, after cutting the packaging material, the compressed elastic material returns to its original position, lifting the packaging material and detaching it from the blade.
[0004] The elastic material can be foam. A foam pasting machine is a machine that automatically pastes foam onto a flat die.
[0005] Conventional foam typically has an adhesive layer at the bottom, which is then bonded to parchment paper. The foam is then cut into strips of suitable length as needed. These strips often still have parchment paper attached, which needs to be removed before bonding them to a flat die. In existing technologies, this parchment paper removal step is inefficient on automated equipment, and the quality of the removal is inconsistent.
[0006] If the bottom of the long strip of foam is made of hot melt adhesive, the hot melt adhesive can be heated and melted to make it sticky when it needs to be pasted, thus eliminating the need for oil paper and improving the efficiency and stability of automated operations.

[0035] The size and shape of the long strip foam are set according to production needs, the production method of the long strip foam is selected according to production needs, and the long strip foam is arranged and placed on the long strip foam placement station of the high-speed foam laminating machine in the required manner.
[0036] In this invention, the size and shape of the elongated foam strip are not limited; it can be any size and shape that meets the usage requirements. The production method and arrangement of the elongated foam strip are also unrestricted; it can be produced in any way and can be arranged and placed as needed on the elongated foam placement station of the high-speed foam laminating machine.
[0037] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an embodiment of this application provides a high-speed cotton applicator with a heating mechanism 4, which includes:
[0038] Workbench 5, on which a flat die-cutting station 51 is provided;
[0039] X / Y / Z three-axis feed mechanism 52, which is disposed above the worktable 5;
[0040] Heating mechanism 4 is used to heat the hot melt adhesive 11 at the bottom of the long strip foam 1. The heating mechanism is located on one side of the workbench surface 5.
[0041] The gripper head 3 is mounted on the X / Y / Z three-axis feed mechanism 52 and is used to grip the long strip of foam 1 from the heating mechanism 4 and place it at the flat die placement position 51.
[0042] The heating mechanism 4 includes a heater 41, which is provided with a heating plate 42 for heating the hot melt adhesive 11 at the bottom of the long strip foam 1.
[0043] It also includes a positioning clamp 6, which is disposed at the front end of the heater 41. The positioning clamp 6 includes a base plate 61, on which a first clamp 62 and a second clamp 63 are provided for clamping the long strip of foam 1.
[0044] The opposing sides of the first clamp 62 and the second clamp are elongated, which increases the contact area with the elongated foam 1 and generates a greater clamping force.
[0045] It also includes a cutting mechanism 2, which is used to cut the long strip of foam 1 to a set length. The cutting mechanism 2 is located at the front end of the positioning clamp.
[0046] The gripper head 3 is a technology that the applicant has previously patented, and will not be described further in this application.
[0047] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of the long strip of foam 1 is provided with hot melt adhesive 11. The hot melt adhesive 11 is solid at room temperature and has no stickiness, but becomes sticky when heated to melt. Therefore, the long strip of foam 1 does not need to be pasted on the oil paper when not in use, reducing the use of oil paper and simplifying the automated process of applying foam, making it more reasonable and stable, and improving work efficiency.
[0048] During the cutting operation, one end of the long strip of foam 1 is placed on the base plate 61. The first clamp 62 and the second clamp 63 move towards each other to clamp the long strip of foam 1. The cutting mechanism 2 cuts the long strip of foam 1 according to the set length. The long strip of foam 1 that remains on the base plate 61 is what is needed for the next process.
[0049] The cutting mechanism 2 can also be an existing cutting device, as long as it can cut the long strip of foam 1.
[0050] The base plate 61 is provided with a first cylinder 64 and a second cylinder 65 facing each other. The output shaft of the first cylinder 64 is fixedly connected to the first clamp 62, and the cylinder shaft of the second cylinder 65 is fixedly connected to the second clamp 63.
[0051] When it is necessary to clamp and fix the elongated foam 1 placed on the base plate 61, the first cylinder 64 drives the first clamp 62 to move forward, and the second cylinder 64 drives the second clamp 63 to move forward until the elongated foam 1 is clamped and fixed. When it is necessary to release the elongated foam 1, the cylinder shaft of the first cylinder 62 retracts, the cylinder shaft of the second cylinder 65 retracts, and the first clamp 62 and the second clamp 63 move backward, thereby releasing the elongated foam 1.
[0052] The base plate 61 is also provided with a positioning plate 66, which has a plurality of positioning blocks 67. The second clamp 63 has a positioning groove 68 corresponding to the positioning blocks 67, and the positioning blocks 67 are placed in the positioning groove 68. When the first clamp 62 and the second clamp 63 move toward each other until they clamp the long strip of foam 1, the positioning blocks 67 are completely located in the positioning groove 68, and will not hinder the first clamp 62 and the second clamp 63 from clamping the long strip of foam 1.
[0053] The positioning block 67 and the positioning groove 68 cooperate to prevent the second clamp 63 from shaking, thereby enabling it to more reliably and stably cooperate with the first clamp 62 to clamp and fix the long strip of foam.
[0054] In this embodiment, the positioning plate 66 is located above the second clamp 63, and the positioning block 67 is located on the lower surface of the second clamp.
[0055] The positioning plate 66 can be positioned below the second clamp 63, at which time the positioning block 67 is located on the upper surface of the positioning plate 66.
[0056] The size and shape of the long strip foam 1 are set according to production needs, the production method of the long strip foam 1 is selected according to production needs, and the long strip foam 1 is arranged and placed on the long strip foam 1 placement station of the high-speed foam laminating machine in the required manner.
[0057] The first clamp 62 and the second clamp 63 have protruding teeth on their opposing sides to enhance the clamping force. In other embodiments, other structures that can enhance the clamping force may also be used.
[0058] Specifically, in use, the high-speed foam applicator with heating mechanism 4 of this utility model delivers a long strip of foam 1 to the base plate 61. In other embodiments, it can also be placed on the base plate 61 in other ways. The first clamp 62 and the second clamp 63 move toward each other to clamp the long strip of foam 1. The cutting mechanism 2 cuts the long strip of foam 1 to a set length. The first clamp 62 and the second clamp 63 release the long strip of foam 1. The gripper tool head 3 picks up the cut long strip of foam 1 and moves it to the heating plate 42 to heat the hot melt adhesive 11 at the bottom of the long strip of foam 1. After heating is completed, the gripper tool head 3 pastes the heated long strip of foam 1 onto the flat die at the flat die placement station 51.
[0059] This utility model has a reasonable and ingenious design. By setting a heating mechanism 4 to heat the hot melt adhesive 11 at the bottom of the long strip foam 1, the bottom of the long strip foam 1 becomes sticky, which optimizes the automated foam application process and improves the efficiency and stability of automated operation.
[0060] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and does not constitute any limitation on this application. Any person skilled in the art can make many possible variations and modifications to the technical solution of this application, or modify it into equivalent embodiments, without departing from the scope of the technical solution of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made based on the shape, structure, and principle of this application without departing from the content of the technical solution of this application should be covered within the protection scope of this application.
