Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automatic bamboo strip bundling technology, and in particular to a rotating channel device for a bamboo strip bundling machine that is easy to maintain. Background Technology

[0002] When binding bamboo strips, the green side must face outwards. Therefore, existing bamboo strip binding machines are equipped with a rotating channel device, which generally has four channels spaced 90° apart around the axis. During operation, the lower channel first receives the first set of stacked bamboo strips, for example, five strips, with the yellow side facing up. Then, the rotating channel device rotates 180°, at which point the first set of bamboo strips is rotated to the top, with the yellow side facing down. Next, the lower channel receives the second set of five bamboo strips with the yellow side facing up. At this point, the yellow sides of the two sets of bamboo strips are facing each other, allowing them to be bound together, thus satisfying the requirement of the green side facing outwards.

[0003] Currently, once the rotary channel device is installed inside the frame, if a malfunction occurs and maintenance is required, the entire rotary channel device needs to be disassembled from the frame, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems existing in the prior art and provide a rotating channel device for a bamboo strip binding machine that is easy to maintain, making maintenance more convenient and saving time and effort.

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

[0006] A rotating channel device for a bamboo strip binding machine that is easy to maintain includes two end plates, several sets of channel components disposed between the two end plates, and inlet / outlet components disposed on opposite sides of the two end plates. The inlet / outlet components include a mounting plate and several inlet / outlet pipes disposed on the mounting plate. The end plates are provided with mounting grooves adapted to the mounting plate. The mounting grooves and the mounting plate are detachably connected by bolts. The end plates and the mounting plate are provided with matching material passages.

[0007] Preferably, one of the end plates is provided with a drive gear.

The length of the side plates is less than the distance between the two end plates. The end plates are provided with insertion slots, and the two ends of the mounting plate are respectively inserted into the insertion slots on the two end plates.

[0010] Preferably, the side plate is provided with a plurality of pressure relief ports spaced apart along its length, and an inlet plate is provided on the front side of each pressure relief port to guide the bamboo strips extending out of the pressure relief ports back between the two side plates.

[0011] Preferably, a plurality of support rollers are provided between the two side plates and on one side of the mounting plate.

[0012] Preferably, a pressure arm is rotatably connected between the two side plates, and a pressure roller is provided at the free end of the pressure arm. A tension spring is provided between the free end of the pressure arm and the outer surface of the side plate so that the pressure roller always presses against the support roller.

[0013] Preferably, a deflector wheel is provided on the outer side of the side plate, one end of the tension spring is connected to the side plate, and the other end passes around the deflector wheel and is connected to the lower pressure arm.

[0018] 2. By placing the drive gear on the end plate instead of in the middle of the entire device, it is easier to maintain and replace the drive gear.

[0019] 3. The channel assembly is connected only by the mounting plate and the end plate, allowing the two side plates to be disassembled separately for maintenance of the internal structure of the channel assembly;

[0020] 4. The pressure relief port improves maintenance efficiency when bamboo strips are accidentally stuck in the channel, allowing the stuck bamboo strips to be cleared from the pressure relief port.

[0023] Figure 2A front view of a maintenance-friendly rotating channel device for a bamboo strip binding machine, provided as an embodiment of this specification;

[0024] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of the channel assembly provided in the embodiments of this specification. Detailed Implementation

[0025] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a maintenance-friendly rotating channel device for a bamboo strip binding machine. It includes two end plates 1, several sets of channel assemblies 2 positioned between the two end plates 1, and inlet / outlet components 3 positioned on opposite sides of the two end plates 1. The end plates 1 are circular, and the channel assemblies are arranged in four sets, spaced 90° apart around the axis of the end plates 1. The inlet / outlet components 3 cooperate with upstream and downstream devices, making the process of receiving and outputting bamboo strips more stable and smooth. Since the device needs to rotate during operation, the frame is equipped with multiple rollers that mate with the outer surface of the end plates 1 to support the rotation. One end plate is equipped with a drive gear 4, which cooperates with the gear at the motor output end to achieve rotation.

[0027] Existing rotary channel devices are often welded into a single structure, requiring the entire device to be disassembled from the frame for maintenance, which is inconvenient. To improve maintenance convenience, this embodiment detachably installs the inlet / outlet components 3 and the end plate 1. Specifically, the inlet / outlet component 3 includes a mounting plate 31 and four inlet / outlet pipes 32 mounted on the mounting plate 31. The end plate 1 has mounting grooves adapted to the mounting plate 31, and the mounting grooves are bolted to the mounting plate 31. The end plate 1 and the mounting plate 31 have corresponding material passages. Thus, when the device is mounted on the frame, the inlet / outlet components 3 at both ends can be disassembled and maintained individually. Furthermore, the cooperation between the mounting grooves and the mounting plate 31 improves the positioning efficiency of the inlet / outlet components 3 during installation, thereby increasing the ease of reinstallation after maintenance. The two feed pipes 32 are respectively provided with an inlet structure 321 and an outlet structure 322 at the ends facing away from the mounting plate 31. The opening of the inlet structure 321 gradually increases outward to ensure the smoothness of receiving bamboo strips; the opening of the outlet structure 322 gradually decreases outward to ensure the neatness of outputting bamboo strips.

[0028] Furthermore, existing rotary channel devices generally place the drive gear in the middle of the device, and the entire device needs to be removed from the frame for disassembly, maintenance or replacement. However, in this embodiment, by placing the drive gear 4 on the end plate 1, the drive gear can be directly disassembled, maintained or replaced, which is more convenient. The drive gear can also be connected to the end plate by bolts.

[0029] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown, to facilitate maintenance of the channel assembly, the channel assembly 2 includes two side plates 21 and a mounting plate 22 bolted between the two side plates 21. The length of the side plates 21 is less than the distance between the two end plates 1. The end plates 1 are provided with insertion slots, and both ends of the mounting plate 22 are respectively inserted into the insertion slots on the two end plates 1. In this way, only the mounting plate 22 is connected to the end plates 1 of the channel assembly. The two side plates 21 can be directly removed from the mounting plate 21 by bolts, thus allowing maintenance of the internal structure of the channel assembly without disassembling the entire device from the frame.

[0030] Multiple pressure relief ports 23 are spaced along the length of the side panel 21. An outwardly inclined guide plate 24 is provided in front of each pressure relief port 23 on the side panel 21 to guide bamboo strips extending from the pressure relief port 23 back between the two side panels 21. On one hand, bamboo strips with a certain degree of lateral bending will encounter resistance when pressed against the side panels after entering the channel, affecting their normal movement and even causing them to get stuck. By providing pressure relief ports 23, when the part of the bamboo strip pressed against the side panel reaches the pressure relief port, the pressure between them is temporarily released, preventing a continuous decrease in the bamboo strip's movement speed or even jamming. This allows the bamboo strip's movement speed to be maintained or temporarily increased, ensuring that the bamboo strip can continue to move forward relatively smoothly. Afterwards, guided by the guide plate 24, the bamboo strip gradually returns to the channel and continues to move forward along the channel. On the other hand, if a bamboo strip accidentally gets stuck in the channel, it can be cleared through the pressure relief port 23.

[0031] To ensure smooth movement of the bamboo strips within the channel, multiple support rollers 25 are provided between the two side plates 21 and on one side of the mounting plate 22. This allows the bamboo strips to pass along the support rollers 25, significantly reducing frictional resistance and minimizing the risk of jamming. Since the entire device needs to rotate, a downward pressure arm 26 is rotatably connected between the two side plates 21 to ensure the bamboo strips remain firmly against the support rollers 25 and do not fall out of the channel. The free end of the downward pressure arm 26 has a downward pressure roller 27, and tension springs 28 are provided on both sides of the free end of the downward pressure arm 26 and between the outer surfaces of the two side plates 21, ensuring that the downward pressure roller 27 always presses against the support roller 25. Multiple downward pressure arms 26 are spaced apart to allow space between them for easy cleaning of any bamboo strips jammed within the channel.

[0032] To ensure that the tension spring 28 has sufficient elastic force to stably support the bamboo strip, it needs to be stretched to a certain length. Given the limited width of the side plate 21, a deflector wheel 29 is provided on the outer side of the side plate 21. One end of the tension spring 28 is connected to the side plate 21, and the other end passes around the deflector wheel 29 and is connected to the lower pressure arm 26. This allows the space in the length direction of the side plate to be utilized through the deflector wheel, increasing the stretching length and improving the elastic force.

[0033] To make the rotation of the lower pressure arm 26 smoother, the free end of the lower pressure arm 26 is closer to the front of the channel assembly than its rotating connection end, so that the direction of the friction force generated on the lower pressure roller 27 when the bamboo strip moves from back to front is consistent with the rotation direction of the lower pressure arm 26.

[0034] In addition, to reduce the overall weight, a mounting plate 210 is provided on the side plate 21, and the lower pressure arm 26 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 210. The mounting plate 210 has an inclined structure adapted to the lower pressure arm 26, so that there is a certain gap between the mounting plate 210 and the side plate 21 and the guide plate 24, which reduces the weight and facilitates the subsequent cleaning of the stuck bamboo strips.

[0035] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, and are implementations based on the overall concept of this utility model. Furthermore, the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, the scope of protection of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
