Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waste disposal, specifically to an automatic waste disposal mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] During the operation of cutting and slitting mechanisms, materials often generate a large amount of waste and accompanying dust after precise cutting or slitting. This waste may include irregularly shaped cutting scraps, edge debris, or small particles that have detached due to material properties, while the dust mainly originates from tiny particles generated during material cutting. Cutting mechanisms have a wide range of applications, including but not limited to the precision cutting of metal sheets, rapid slitting of paper and films, and complex irregular-shaped cutting of lithium battery electrodes; waste and dust generation are unavoidable in these processes. Therefore, automatic waste removal mechanisms have emerged and become an indispensable part of cutting and slitting mechanisms. The main function of this mechanism is to collect and remove the waste and dust generated during the cutting and slitting process in a timely and effective manner, ensuring the clean and efficient operation of the production line.

[0003] However, although existing automatic waste removal mechanisms meet the needs of the cutting and slitting field to a certain extent, some shortcomings still exist. First, the structure of some existing automatic waste removal mechanisms is relatively simple. They generally directly adsorb and discharge waste into a large container, filling the container before discharging it all at once. However, the accumulation of waste can easily cause blockages, affecting the waste discharge efficiency. Second, the structure of some automatic waste removal mechanisms can lead to unsatisfactory adsorption and collection effects when collecting accumulated waste, thus affecting the collection of cutting waste. In addition, the waste collection efficiency and continuity of some automatic waste removal mechanisms are not easy to control, affecting the coordinated use of cutting or slitting mechanisms. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the above-mentioned defects and provide an automatic waste discharge mechanism to address the technical problem that the existing waste discharge mechanisms in the background art have poor waste collection and discharge effects, which easily cause waste to accumulate and block the container, thereby affecting the adsorption, collection and discharge efficiency of the waste discharge mechanism.

[0005] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following means:

[0006] An automatic waste discharge mechanism includes a receiving device for receiving waste, a transmission pipe for transferring waste from the receiving device, and a negative pressure drive for providing negative pressure suction to the transmission pipe. The negative pressure drive is connected to one end of the transmission pipe via a negative pressure air inlet. A pipe suction switch is connected to one end of the transmission pipe near the negative pressure drive to control the connection between the negative pressure air inlet and the transmission pipe and generate negative pressure for waste transfer. A waste collection hood is connected to one end of the transmission pipe near the receiving device. One end of the transmission pipe passes through the pipe suction switch and the waste collection hood sequentially and is connected to the receiving device. The waste collection hood has an internal cavity for temporarily storing waste. A mesh for separating waste is provided on the inner wall of the cavity near the pipe suction switch. An openable discharge cover is connected to the bottom of the waste collection hood, and a discharge drive is provided on the waste collection hood to drive the discharge cover to open or close.

[0007] Furthermore, as described above, the bottom of the waste collection hood has a discharge opening that communicates with the receiving cavity. One end of the discharge cover plate is hinged to the bottom of the waste collection hood via a hinge. The discharge cover plate can rotate relative to the bottom of the waste collection hood to open or close the discharge opening. The discharge drive is mounted on the waste collection hood, and the extension and retraction drive of the discharge drive is connected to the discharge cover plate.

[0008] The waste collection hood has a discharge opening at the bottom. After collecting waste in the receiving cavity, the discharge drive unit opens the discharge cover, allowing the waste to be discharged automatically. This system optimizes waste discharge efficiency and coordinates with an external cutting device. After cutting the material once, it is suctioned under negative pressure into the receiving cavity and discharged directly, preventing waste accumulation and blockage within the cavity.

[0009] Furthermore, as described above, the negative pressure drive component includes a fan and a filter barrel. The fan is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet. The air inlet of the fan is connected to the filter barrel through an elbow, and one end of the transmission channel is conductively connected to the filter barrel.

[0010] Alternatively, the fan can be a blower or a high-pressure fan.

[0011] By connecting a filter bucket to the air inlet of the blower, when a negative pressure adsorption force is generated on the transmission pipeline, the dust in the waste material is collected and filtered as it passes through the transmission pipeline, thereby improving the service life and stability of the blower.

[0012] Furthermore, as described above, the air outlet of the fan is connected to a filter element for filtering negative pressure air.

[0013] By connecting a filter element to the air outlet of the fan, when the negative pressure air of the fan passes through the air inlet and is discharged from the air outlet, the filter element can filter the dust in the negative pressure air, thereby reducing the emission of dust to the outside, further enhancing the waste collection effect, and improving the working environment.

[0014] Further, as described above, the pipeline suction switch includes a butterfly valve seat, connectors disposed on both sides of the butterfly valve seat, and a butterfly valve baffle. The interior of the butterfly valve seat forms a vacuum channel communicating with the transmission channel. The butterfly valve seat is connected to the transmission pipeline through the connectors on both sides. A rotatable shaft is connected to the butterfly valve seat through a rotating component. One end of the shaft passes through the butterfly valve seat, extends into the vacuum channel, and connects to the butterfly valve baffle. The butterfly valve seat is provided with a switch driving component for driving the rotating component to cause the shaft to drive the butterfly valve baffle to open or close the vacuum channel.

[0015] The butterfly valve baffle, driven by the switch drive, can connect or disconnect the vacuum channel and the transmission channel, thereby controlling the opening or closing of the negative pressure suction of the transmission channel, so that it can cooperate with the cutting mechanism or cutting device through the receiving device.

[0016] When the negative pressure suction of the transmission channel draws the waste from the receiving device into the receiving cavity, the waste is temporarily stored inside the cavity by the partition mesh, reducing the accumulation of waste that may enter the negative pressure drive unit through the transmission pipe. At this time, the switch drive unit drives the butterfly valve baffle through the rotating component to close the vacuum channel, thus disconnecting the negative pressure suction of the transmission channel. Simultaneously, the discharge drive unit drives the discharge cover to open the discharge opening, allowing the waste to fall out under gravity and be discharged into the external collection device, improving the continuity and stability of waste collection and discharge.

[0017] Furthermore, as described above, the vacuum channel is a circular through hole, and the butterfly valve baffle is paired with the vacuum channel of the circular through hole.

[0018] Optionally, the butterfly valve baffle is circular, so that the connection between the vacuum channel and the transmission channel can be controlled by the switching actuator, thereby controlling the negative pressure suction and opening or closing.

[0019] Furthermore, as described above, the receiving device has a receiving slot, and the side of the receiving device is provided with a discharge end that communicates with the receiving slot, and the discharge end is connected to one end of the transmission pipeline.

[0020] The receiving device is installed inside the cutting mechanism or the cutting mechanism. The receiving slot on the receiving device is used to collect waste and dust generated in the cutting process. The receiving device is connected to the transmission pipeline through the discharge end. The negative pressure driving component can generate negative pressure suction on the transmission pipeline, thereby sucking the waste in the receiving slot into the waste collection hood.

[0021] Furthermore, as described above, the waste collection hood has a window at its top, and a transparent observation cover is connected to the window.

[0022] The transparent observation cover allows for real-time monitoring of waste accumulation within the containment chamber, preventing blockages and improving waste discharge efficiency and effectiveness.

[0023] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The receiving device serves as the starting point for waste collection. A negative pressure suction force is provided to the transmission pipeline by a negative pressure drive component, ensuring that the waste on the receiving device is stably and quickly sucked away under the negative pressure suction of the transmission pipeline. The design of the transmission pipeline allows the waste to be effectively guided from the receiving device into the receiving cavity of the waste collection hood. The installed pipeline suction switch can control the connection between the negative pressure air inlet and the transmission pipeline, thereby enabling or disabling the negative pressure transmission function as needed. The receiving cavity of the waste collection hood serves as the collection area for concentrated waste. Meanwhile, the partition mesh installed inside the receiving cavity can effectively block large pieces of waste or foreign objects, preventing them from passing through the transmission pipe and entering the negative pressure drive component, causing blockage or damage. When the transmission pipe generates negative pressure suction to draw the waste from the receiving device into the receiving cavity, the pipe suction switch can disconnect the negative pressure suction of the transmission pipe, and the discharge drive component can drive the discharge cover plate to open the receiving cavity, allowing the waste to fall out of the receiving cavity and be discharged. This avoids the problems of waste accumulation and blockage, ensures the continuity and efficiency of waste processing, and improves the stability and durability of the automatic waste discharge mechanism.

Detailed Implementation

[0032] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0033] In this embodiment, refer to Figures 1-7 The automatic waste discharge mechanism specifically implemented includes a receiving device 1 for receiving waste, a transmission pipe 2 for transferring waste from the receiving device 1, and a negative pressure drive component for providing negative pressure suction to the transmission pipe 2. The negative pressure drive component is connected to one end of the transmission pipe 2 via a negative pressure air inlet. A pipe suction switch 3 is connected to the end of the transmission pipe 2 near the negative pressure drive component to control the connection between the negative pressure air inlet and the transmission pipe 2 and generate negative pressure for waste transfer. One end of the device 1 is connected to a waste collection hood 4. One end of the transmission pipe 2 passes through the pipe suction switch 3 and the waste collection hood 4 in sequence and is connected to the receiving device 1. The inside of the waste collection hood 4 forms a receiving cavity 5 for temporarily storing waste. The inner wall of the receiving cavity 5 near the pipe suction switch 3 is provided with a partition 6 for separating waste. The bottom of the waste collection hood 4 is connected to an openable and closable discharge cover 7, and the waste collection hood 4 is provided with a discharge drive 8 for driving the discharge cover 7 to open or close.

[0034] In this embodiment, the bottom of the waste collection cover 4 is formed with a discharge opening 9 that communicates with the receiving cavity 5. One end of the discharge cover 7 is hinged to the bottom of the waste collection cover 4 through a hinge 10. The discharge cover 7 can rotate relative to the bottom of the waste collection cover 4 to open or close the discharge opening 9. The discharge drive 8 is installed on the waste collection cover 4, and the extension and retraction drive of the discharge drive 8 is connected to the discharge cover 7.

[0035] Waste is collected in the receiving cavity 5 via the discharge opening 9 at the bottom of the waste collection hood 4. The discharge drive 8 then drives the discharge cover 7 to open the discharge opening 9, allowing the waste to be discharged automatically. This system optimizes waste discharge efficiency and coordinates with an external cutting device. After cutting the material once, it is suctioned under negative pressure into the receiving cavity 5 and discharged directly, preventing waste accumulation and blockage within the cavity 5.

[0036] In this embodiment, the negative pressure drive includes a fan 11 and a filter cartridge 12. The fan 11 is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet. The air inlet of the fan 11 is connected to the filter cartridge 12 through an elbow, and one end of the transmission channel is conductively connected to the filter cartridge 12. The air outlet of the fan 11 is connected to a filter element 13 for filtering negative pressure air.

[0037] Specifically, in this embodiment, the fan 11 is a high-pressure fan 11. By connecting a filter barrel 12 to the air inlet of the fan 11, when it generates negative pressure adsorption force on the transmission pipe 2, the dust in the waste material is collected and filtered by the filter barrel 12 as it passes through the transmission pipe 2, thereby improving the service life and stability of the fan 11. By connecting a filter element 13 to the air outlet of the fan 11, when the negative pressure air from the fan 11 passes through the air inlet and is discharged from the air outlet, the filter element 13 can filter the dust in the negative pressure air, thereby reducing the emission of dust to the outside, further enhancing the waste collection effect, and improving the working environment.

[0038] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 5 The pipe suction switch 3 includes a butterfly valve seat 301, connectors 302 disposed on both sides of the butterfly valve seat 301, and a butterfly valve baffle 303. The interior of the butterfly valve seat 301 forms a vacuum channel 304 that communicates with the transmission channel. The butterfly valve seat 301 is connected to the transmission pipe 2 through the connectors 302 on both sides. A rotatable shaft 306 is connected to the butterfly valve seat 301 through a rotating component 305. One end of the shaft 306 passes through the butterfly valve seat 301, extends into the vacuum channel 304, and connects to the butterfly valve baffle 303. The butterfly valve seat 301 is provided with a switch drive component 307 for driving the rotating component 305 to drive the shaft 306 to drive the butterfly valve baffle 303 to open or close the vacuum channel 304.

[0039] Driven by the switch drive unit 307, the butterfly valve baffle 303 can connect or disconnect the vacuum channel 304 from the transmission channel, thereby controlling the opening or closing of the negative pressure suction of the transmission channel, so that it can cooperate with the cutting mechanism or cutting device through the receiving device 1.

[0040] When the negative pressure suction of the transmission channel draws the waste material from the receiving device 1 into the receiving cavity 5, the waste material is temporarily stored inside the receiving cavity 5 by the partition 6 inside the receiving cavity 5, reducing the accumulation of waste material entering the negative pressure drive unit through the transmission pipe 2. At this time, the switch drive unit 307 drives the butterfly valve baffle 303 through the rotating part 305 to close the vacuum channel 304, thereby disconnecting the negative pressure suction of the transmission channel. At the same time, the discharge drive unit 8 drives the discharge cover plate 7 to open the discharge opening 9, allowing the waste material to fall and be discharged into the external collection device under the action of gravity, thereby improving the continuity and stability of waste material collection and discharge.

[0041] In this embodiment, the vacuum channel 304 is a circular through hole, and the butterfly valve baffle 303 is paired with the circular through hole vacuum channel 304. The butterfly valve baffle 303 is circular, so that when driven by the switch drive 307, it can control the connection between the vacuum channel 304 and the transmission channel, thereby controlling the negative pressure suction and opening or closing.

[0042] In this embodiment, the receiving device 1 has a receiving slot 14, and the side of the receiving device 1 is provided with a discharge end 15 that communicates with the receiving slot 14. The discharge end 15 is connected to one end of the transmission pipe 2.

[0043] The receiving device 1 is installed in the cutting mechanism or cutting mechanism. The receiving slot 14 on the receiving device 1 is used to collect the waste and dust generated in the cutting material. The receiving device 1 is connected to the transmission pipe 2 through the discharge end 15. The negative pressure driving component can generate negative pressure suction on the transmission pipe 2, thereby sucking the waste in the receiving slot 14 into the waste collection hood 4.

[0044] The waste collection hood 4 has a window at its top, and a transparent observation cover 16 is connected to the window. The observation cover 16 allows for real-time observation of the accumulation of waste in the receiving cavity 5, preventing blockage and improving the efficiency and effectiveness of waste discharge.

[0045] The specific operating principle in this embodiment is as follows:

[0046] The receiving slot 14 of the receiving device 1 is positioned below the electrode cutting mechanism. Driven by the fan 11, the air inlet generates suction. The discharge drive 8 drives the discharge cover 7 to seal the discharge opening 9. The switch drive 307, through the rotating component 305, drives the butterfly valve baffle 303 to connect the vacuum channel 304 to the transmission pipeline 2, thereby providing negative pressure suction to the transmission pipeline 2. This allows the waste material on the receiving slot 14 to be stably and quickly sucked away under the negative pressure suction of the transmission pipeline 2. The waste material can be effectively guided from the receiving device 1 into the receiving cavity 5 of the waste collection hood 4. The mesh 6 inside the receiving cavity 5 separates the waste material, preventing it from passing through the transmission pipeline 2 and entering the air. If the machine 11 causes blockage or damage, the butterfly valve baffle 303 can be driven by the switch drive 307 to disconnect the vacuum channel 304 from the transmission pipeline 2, that is, to turn off the suction provided by the blower 11 to the transmission pipeline 2. The discharge drive 8 can drive the discharge cover 7 to open the discharge opening 9, so that the waste material falls from the receiving cavity 5 and is discharged to the external collection device due to gravity, avoiding the problem of waste accumulation and blockage. Specifically, after the cutting mechanism performs one cut, the cutting waste material is collected and discharged outward through the transmission pipeline 2, ensuring the continuity and efficiency of waste material processing, improving the stability and durability of the automatic waste discharge mechanism, and reducing the phenomenon of blockage caused by waste accumulation.

[0047] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model.
