Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of archive restoration technology, specifically relating to an archive flattening and restoration tool. Background Technology

[0002] For paper archives, physical pressure or bending during transmission or storage can damage or deform the paper fibers. This deformation may cause creases when the document is unfolded again, affecting its integrity and appearance. The long-term presence of creases can wear down the paper during use or storage, which can damage the printed ink at the creases, affecting readability and shortening the document's lifespan.

[0003] To address this issue, an existing document flattening and restoration mechanism, such as one described in application number 202323405910.1, includes a frame. Clamping components are mounted on the outer walls of the front and rear sides of the frame's tabletop. Each clamping component includes two sliding grooves, respectively installed on the front and rear sides of the lower surface of the frame's tabletop. A first I-shaped slider and a second I-shaped slider slide within each groove. Support frames are mounted on the outer surfaces of both the first and second I-shaped sliders. When using this document flattening and restoration mechanism, the user first places the document on the upper surface of the frame's tabletop, moves the two support frames to the ends of the document, and rotates bolts to press down on the ends of the document using pressure plates. This fixes documents of different sizes on the frame, facilitating subsequent flattening and restoration of creases. It also allows for the pressing and restoration of folded corners.

[0004] Although the institution is capable of performing the function of flattening and restoring archives, the efficiency of flattening and restoring is slow when processing a large number of archives due to the complexity of the equipment and the cumbersome procedures. At the same time, due to the large number of driving components, damage is prone to occur, affecting the restoration. Utility Model Content

At this time, the bottom of the pressure plate presses firmly against the top of the shelf.

[0008] Preferably, the outer sides of the two side plates are respectively connected to the two sides of the pressure plate with return springs, and the return springs can press the top of the pressure plate against the outer contour of the pressure block.

[0009] Preferably, the shelf includes a sliding plate with a slider connected to the bottom and a groove opened on the base, allowing the slider to slide within the groove; a support plate is connected to the top of the sliding plate, and a work plate is connected to the top of the support plate, forming a storage space between the work plate and the pressure plate.

[0010] Preferably, a heating plate is connected to the bottom of the work plate to heat the work plate.

[0023] Example 1:

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-3 In this embodiment, to simplify the structure and facilitate the flattening and restoration of a large number of archives, an archive flattening and restoration tool is proposed, including a base 1, a vertical plate 2 connected to the base 1, and a flattening component 3 connected to the top of the vertical plate 2; the flattening component 3 includes two parallel side plates 31, a crossbar 33 rotatably connected between the two side plates 31, a flattening member 32 sleeved on the crossbar 33, and the flattening member 32 can rotate along the crossbar 33; a pressure plate 4 is provided at the bottom of the flattening component 3, the pressure plate 4 is slidably connected to the vertical plate 2, the pressure plate 4 can slide vertically along the vertical plate 2, and the bottom of the flattening member 32 is pressed against the pressure plate 4; a platform 5 is provided at the bottom of the pressure plate 4.

[0025] In this embodiment, the flattening member 32 includes a pressure rod 321, the end of which is connected to a pressure block 322. A through hole 326 is formed in the middle of the pressure block 322, through which a crossbar 33 passes. The pressure block 322 can rotate along the crossbar 33. The outer contour of the pressure block 322 rests on the top of the pressure plate 4. The outer contour of the pressure block 322 includes an initial part 323, a moving part 324, and a pressing part 325. The initial part 323 is arc-shaped. When the initial part 323 moves downward... The bottom of the pressure block 322 is flush with the bottom of the side plate 31, and the end of the initial part 323 is connected to the moving part 324. The moving part 324 is arc-shaped. When the moving part 324 moves downward, the bottom of the pressure block 322 extends beyond the bottom of the side plate 31, and the distance of the pressure block 322 extending beyond the bottom continuously increases. The pressing part 325 is located at the end of the moving part 324, and the pressing part 325 has the maximum distance of the pressure block 322 extending beyond the bottom of the side plate 31. At this time, the bottom of the pressure plate 4 presses against the top of the shelf 5. The outer sides of the two side plates 31 are respectively connected to the two sides of the pressure plate 4 with return springs 34. The return springs 34 can press the top of the pressure plate 4 against the outer contour of the pressure block 322. After the file is flattened, it can drive the pressure plate 4 to move automatically upward.

[0026] Example 2:

[0027] Continue reading Figures 1-3 In this embodiment, the storage table 5 includes a sliding plate 51 for easy access. A slider 56 is connected to the bottom of the sliding plate 51, and a groove 11 is provided on the base 1, allowing the slider 56 to slide within the groove 11. A support plate 52 is connected to the top of the sliding plate 51, and a work plate 53 is connected to the top of the support plate 52. A storage space is formed between the work plate 53 and the pressure plate 4. A handle 54 is connected to one side of the base plate; pushing the handle 54 causes the storage table 5 to slide along the groove 11. Files are placed in the storage space, and the pressure plate 4 is pushed down to flatten them.

[0028] A heating plate 55 is connected to the bottom of the work plate 53, which can heat the work plate 53. If the file is damp, the heating plate 55 can be activated to heat the work plate 53 to achieve the drying operation. The work plate 53 is placed between the heating plate 55 and the file to prevent the file from being damaged due to excessive temperature during direct baking.

[0029] In addition, to prevent the shelf 5 from shaking during the flattening process, protrusions 12 can be connected to both sides of the base 1. Limiting blocks 13 are rotatably connected to the protrusions 12. The limiting blocks 13 are L-shaped and can lock the shelf 5 at the bottom of the pressure plate 4. When in use, the limiting blocks 13 are rotated to lock the shelf 5. When not in use, the limiting blocks 13 are rotated to move them away.

[0030] How to use:

[0031] First, pull handle 54 to move the shelf 5 out, place the file on the work plate 53, and push handle 54 to push the file and shelf 5 under the pressure plate 4; rotate the limit block 13 to lock the shelf 5; rotate the pressure rod 321 so that the outer contour of the pressure block 322 moves from the initial part 323 through the moving part 324 and finally to the pressing part 325. The pressure block 322 continuously presses down. When it reaches the pressing part 325, the pressure plate 4 and the work plate 53 press the file, which plays a flattening role and restores the file to a flat position; release the pressure rod 321, and the pressure plate 4 moves up under the action of the return spring 34 to release the file. Move the limit block 13 to pull the shelf 5 out along the slide 11 and put in the next file. Repeat the above operation.

[0032] Although the specific embodiments of the utility model have been described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, this is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the utility model. Based on the technical solution of the utility model, various modifications or variations that can be made by those skilled in the art without creative effort are still within the scope of protection of the utility model.
