Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of geotextile shaping technology, and in particular to a geotextile edge shaping mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Geotextile, also known as geotextile fabric, is a permeable geosynthetic material made of synthetic fibers through needle punching or weaving. It is one type of new geosynthetic material, and the finished product is cloth-like. It possesses many excellent properties, such as high strength, corrosion resistance, good permeability, good antimicrobial properties, and convenient construction. Geotextile edge shaping refers to the shaping, sealing, or treatment of the edges of the geotextile.

[0003] Currently, when geotextiles are laid in some sites, it is usually necessary to use an electric hot knife to cut and shape the edges of the geotextiles. When using this electric hot knife to cut and shape the edges of the geotextiles, workers usually need to manually hold the geotextiles to perform the cutting and shaping operation. However, holding the geotextiles for a long time to cut and shape the edges is tiring and not conducive to the edge shaping process. Therefore, we propose a geotextile edge shaping mechanism. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a geotextile edge shaping mechanism. This mechanism is formed by incorporating a cutting aid mechanism at the electrothermal knife. The cutting aid mechanism, through the cooperation of components such as a bottom limit strip, top limit strip, bearings, and pressure rollers, allows the pressure rollers to roll smoothly on the geotextile, assisting the electrothermal knife in cutting. This design not only improves cutting efficiency but also reduces resistance during the cutting process, ensuring the smoothness and convenience of geotextile edge shaping and cutting, and reducing the labor intensity of geotextile edge cutting and shaping operations. It effectively solves the problems in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A geotextile edge shaping mechanism includes an electrothermal knife and a cutting head. The cutting head is installed on the body of the electrothermal knife. The mechanism also includes a cutting aid, which comprises a U-shaped support, a bottom limit strip, a top limit strip, a bearing, a pressure roller, flange bolts, and a lifting plate. The U-shaped support is bolted to the outside of the electrothermal knife housing. A bottom limit strip and a top limit strip are symmetrically welded to the side panel of the U-shaped support. A bearing for supporting the rotation of the pressure roller is installed on the top limit strip via flange bolts. The outer ring of the bearing is interference-fitted onto the rim of the pressure roller. A groove for mounting the lifting plate is recessed on the upper surface of the bottom limit strip. A bolt for supporting the lifting plate's ascent is screwed onto the bottom limit strip at the groove. Guide posts are symmetrically welded to the lower surface of the lifting plate. Guide holes for mounting the guide posts are symmetrically formed on the surface of the groove.

[0007] Furthermore, a side groove is provided on the side of the top limit bar, and a bearing is inserted into the groove cavity of the side groove. The inner ring of the bearing passes through the bolt of the flange bolt, and the bolt of the flange bolt is screwed into the side groove.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the flange bolts can be screwed into the groove wall of the side groove after passing through the bearing to support the bearing, and then the bearing can support the rotation of the pressure roller.

[0009] Furthermore, two sets of guide holes are symmetrically opened in the riser groove, and two sets of guide pillars are inserted into the two sets of slots of the guide holes;

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the lifting plate can be smoothly inserted into the two sets of cavities of the guide hole using two sets of guide posts.

[0011] Furthermore, the bottom of the two side plates of the U-shaped support are welded with stiffening plates, and the housing of the electric heating knife is inserted between the side plates of the U-shaped support.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the seat plate of the U-shaped support is connected by welding through stiffeners, so that the U-shaped support can be clamped onto the outside of the electric hot knife housing.

[0013] Furthermore, mounting holes are provided between the two side plates of the U-shaped support and the housing of the electric heating knife, and bolts and nuts are passed through and locked between the mounting holes of the U-shaped support and the electric heating knife.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the mounting holes of the U-shaped support and the electric heating knife can be tightened by bolts and nuts, so that the U-shaped support can be installed on the outside of the electric heating knife.

[0015] Furthermore, the thickness of the lifting plate is less than the depth of the lifting groove.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the lifting plate can be raised and lowered linearly within the lifting groove.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] This utility model forms a geotextile edge shaping mechanism by setting an auxiliary cutting mechanism at the electric heating knife. The auxiliary cutting mechanism, through the cooperation of components such as bottom limit strip, top limit strip, bearing, and pressure roller, enables the pressure roller to roll smoothly on the geotextile, assisting the electric heating knife in cutting. This design not only improves cutting efficiency but also reduces resistance during the cutting process, ensuring the smoothness and convenience of geotextile edge shaping and cutting.

[0019] The design of the lifting plate, lifting groove, guide column and guide hole allows the lifting plate to move up and down linearly within the lifting groove, thus facilitating the adjustment of the distance between the pressure roller and the electric heating knife. This flexible lifting and adjustment function enables the shaping mechanism to adapt to geotextiles of different thicknesses, improving the applicability of the processing.

[0024] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0025] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a geotextile edge shaping mechanism includes an electrothermal knife 1 and a cutter head 2. The cutter head 2 is installed on the cutter body of the electrothermal knife 1. It also includes a cutting assistance mechanism 3, which includes a U-shaped support 4, a bottom limit strip 5, a top limit strip 6, a bearing 8, a pressure roller 9, flange bolts 10, and a lifting plate 12. The U-shaped support 4 is bolted to the outside of the housing of the electrothermal knife 1. The bottom limit strip 5 and the top limit strip 6 are symmetrically welded to the side panel of the U-shaped support 4. The top limit strip 6 has a strip body... A bearing 8 for supporting the rotation of the pressure roller 9 is installed at the flange bolt 10, and the outer ring of the bearing 8 is interference-fitted into the rim of the pressure roller 9. The upper surface of the bottom limit bar 5 is recessed and has a lifting groove 11 for mounting the lifting plate 12. A lifting bolt 15 for supporting the lifting plate 12 is screwed onto the bottom limit bar 5 at the lifting groove 11. Guide posts 13 are symmetrically welded to the lower surface of the lifting plate 12. Guide holes 14 for mounting the guide posts 13 are symmetrically opened on the surface of the groove 11.

[0026] The top limit bar 6 has a side groove 7 on its side, and a bearing 8 is inserted into the groove of the side groove 7. The inner ring of the bearing 8 passes through the bolt of the flange bolt 10, and the bolt of the flange bolt 10 is screwed into the side groove 7.

[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, the flange bolt 10 can be screwed onto the groove wall of the side groove 7 after passing through the bearing 8 to support the bearing 8, and then the bearing 8 can support the rotation of the pressure roller 9.

[0028] The guide holes 14 are symmetrically provided in two sets within the lifting groove 11, and two sets of guide posts 13 are inserted into the two sets of grooves of the guide holes 14.

[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, the lifting plate 12 can be smoothly inserted into the two sets of cavities of the guide hole 14 using two sets of guide posts 13.

[0030] The bottom of the two side plates of the U-shaped support 4 are welded with stiffening plates, and the housing of the electric hot knife 1 is inserted between the side plates of the U-shaped support 4.

[0031] By adopting the above technical solution, the seat plate of the U-shaped support 4 is connected by welding through stiffeners, so that the U-shaped support 4 can be clamped onto the outside of the housing of the electric hot knife 1.

[0032] The U-shaped support 4 has mounting holes between its two side plates and the housing of the electric hot knife 1, and bolts and nuts are used to lock the U-shaped support 4 and the mounting holes of the electric hot knife 1 together.

[0033] By adopting the above technical solution, the mounting holes of the U-shaped support 4 and the electric heating knife 1 can be tightened by bolts and nuts, so that the U-shaped support 4 can be installed outside the electric heating knife 1.

[0034] Wherein, the thickness of the lifting plate 12 is less than the depth of the groove 11;

[0035] By adopting the above technical solution, the lifting plate 12 can be raised and lowered linearly within the lifting groove 11.

[0036] It should be noted that this utility model is a geotextile edge shaping mechanism. A cutting aid mechanism 3 is set at the heated knife 1 to form the geotextile edge shaping mechanism. After the U-shaped support 4 of the cutting aid mechanism 3 is installed outside the heated knife 1, the U-shaped support 4 can support the bottom limit strip 5 and the top limit strip 6. Then, a lifting plate 12 and a pressure roller 9 can be installed at the bottom limit strip 5 and the top limit strip 6 respectively. When the geotextile edge needs to be edge-shaped and cut, the geotextile edge can be placed between the bottom limit strip 5 and the top limit strip 6, and then the pressure roller 9 can press the geotextile against the bottom limit strip 5. The surface of the lifting plate 12 is pressed and fed. The worker only needs to hold the electric heating knife 1 with one hand and the edge of the geotextile with the other hand. Then the electric heating knife 1 uses the blade head 2 to heat cut the edge of the geotextile. When the edge of the geotextile is heat-cut, the cutting aid mechanism 3 can assist the geotextile to pass through the blade head 2 smoothly for edge cutting and shaping. After cutting, the edge of the geotextile can be separated from the top limit strip 6 and the bottom limit strip 5 to both sides. After the lifting bolt 15 rises, the lifting plate 12 can reduce the passing distance between the pressure roller 9 and the lifting plate 12, so as to adapt to the edge cutting and shaping of geotextiles of different thicknesses.

[0037] It should be noted that this utility model is a geotextile edge shaping mechanism. All components in this utility model are known to those skilled in the art, and their structure and principle can be learned by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods.
