Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of badge production equipment, and more specifically, to an automatic feeding, winding, and cutting knife for badge padding material. Background Technology
[0002] With the rise of millet harvesting activities in my country, the variety and styles of badge products have experienced explosive growth in the Chinese market, becoming a phenomenal consumer trend. Badges, also known as pins, are generally assembled from an upper and lower cover. The entire badge assembly process typically includes the following steps: feeding the upper and lower covers, assembling the upper cover, pressing the upper and lower covers together, and product testing.
[0003] To win in the market, various new badge structures have been developed. For example, placing a soft pad in the center of the badge has the following advantages:
[0004] 1. Enhanced 3D Appearance and Aesthetics: Soft pads can increase the thickness and layering of the badge, making it more visually three-dimensional. This three-dimensional effect makes the badge's design and patterns stand out more, making it more attractive and thus improving the overall aesthetics of the badge.
[0005] 2. Provides protection: The soft pad has a certain degree of elasticity and toughness, which can provide some protection for the badge. When the badge is subjected to slight bumps or pressure, the pad can absorb some of the impact force, reduce damage to the badge surface, and extend the badge's lifespan.
[0006] Although automated badge production technology has appeared on the market, such as the patent document with patent number CN202010636551.2 entitled "Fully Automatic Badge Making Machine and Manufacturing Method", it includes an installation platform, a feeding system, an automatic plastic substrate unloading system, a moving worktable system, a stamping system, and an unloading system; the badge making method of the fully automatic badge making machine includes the following steps: S1, automatic unloading of tinplate; S2, feeding tinplate; S3, automatic feeding of paper; S4, movement of the moving worktable; S5, automatic unloading of plastic substrate; S6, first stamping; S7, resetting of the moving worktable; S8, second stamping; S9, automatic unloading.
[0007] However, currently, the production of badges with soft pads in the center still requires manual cutting of the soft pad material into the shape of the badge before it is pasted onto the badge base. This process is cumbersome, has high production costs, and is difficult to adapt to the operating cycle of automated badge production equipment on the market. Therefore, it is necessary to design equipment that can automatically complete processes such as soft pad cutting to complement existing automated badge production equipment. Utility Model Content
[0008] To address the current market shortage of automated soft pad cutting and unloading equipment for badge production, which requires manual cutting of soft pads, and the difficulty in using automated badge production equipment for badges with soft pads, resulting in low production efficiency and difficulty in reducing product costs, we provide an automated unloading, rewinding, and cutting blade for badge pads.
[0009] The automatic feeding and rewinding cutter for badge padding includes an unwinding roller, a shearing assembly, and a rewinding roller arranged in sequence. A padding gripping arm is provided above the shearing assembly. The shearing assembly includes a notch base and a shearing die that are nested together. A linear driver is connected to the rear end of the shearing die. The padding material wound on the unwinding roller unfolds and passes between the notch base and the shearing die before reaching the rewinding roller for rewinding. A padding drive module is provided between the unwinding roller and the rewinding roller to fit the padding material.
[0010] Furthermore, guide rollers are provided between the unwinding roller and the shearing assembly, and between the shearing assembly and the winding roller.
[0011] Furthermore, the notch base is provided with a discharge opening that runs vertically through it, the shearing die is fitted into the discharge opening from bottom to top, and the pad material gripping arm is positioned above the discharge opening.
[0012] Furthermore, the pad material gripping arm includes a negative pressure suction head, which is mounted on a three-axis moving arm.
[0013] Furthermore, the pad material gripping arm includes a positioning pad, the bottom of which is provided with multiple negative pressure suction heads. The positioning pad is mounted on a three-axis moving arm, and a ring cutter with an outer protruding edge is detachably mounted on the shearing mold. The ring cutter is nested on the outer edge of the positioning pad.
[0014] Furthermore, the number of discharge openings and shearing dies is one or more, and the shearing dies are all mounted on a horizontal support plate, with a linear driver connected below the horizontal support plate.
[0015] Furthermore, lifting guide rods are slidably sleeved on both sides of the horizontal support plate.
[0016] Furthermore, the pad material driving module includes an upper roller shaft and a lower roller shaft that are synchronously driven by a rotary servo. The pad material passes between the upper roller shaft and the lower roller shaft. The lower roller shaft is installed on the lifting guide groove. The rear ends of the unwinding roller and the winding roller are both connected to a rotary driver.
[0017] Furthermore, a dispensing head is installed on the pad material gripping arm, and the dispensing head is connected to the glue delivery assembly through a soft conduit. A heating module is provided inside the shearing mold.
[0018] Furthermore, both the unwinding roller and the winding roller are detachably equipped with transparent baffles at their front ends.
[0019] The advantages of this utility model are:
[0020] 1. It replaces the manual cutting of badge pads, resulting in high work efficiency and stable operation over a long period of time.
[0021] 2. It is convenient to coordinate with the operating cycle of the badge automatic production equipment so as to realize the fully automated production of badges with a pad in the middle.
[0022] 3. After the padding material is cut, it can be automatically fed onto the badge by the gripping arm, and can also be fixed by the glue dispensing head, which helps to improve product quality. Attached Figure Description

[0036] like Figure 1-6As shown, this embodiment provides an automatic feeding and rewinding cutter for badge padding material, including an unwinding roller 1, a shearing assembly 2, and a rewinding roller 4 arranged in sequence. A padding material gripping arm 3 is provided above the shearing assembly 2. The shearing assembly 2 includes a notched base 201 and a shearing die 202 that are nested together. A linear driver 203 is connected to the rear end of the shearing die 202. The padding material 13 wound on the unwinding roller 1 unfolds and passes between the notched base 201 and the shearing die 202 before reaching the rewinding roller 4 for rewinding. A padding material driving module 5 is provided between the unwinding roller 1 and the rewinding roller 4 corresponding to the padding material 13.
[0037] When the equipment is running, the untreated padding material roll is first installed on the unwinding roller 1. Then, the front end of the padding material 13 is pulled out, passed through the shearing assembly 2 and the padding material drive module 5, and then pasted and wound onto the empty sleeve on the take-up roller 4 to complete the initial setup. Then the equipment can be started. The padding material drive module 5 drives the padding material 13 to be conveyed along the path. The shearing die 202 of the shearing assembly 2, driven by the linear driver 203, cuts the padding material 13 into the corresponding shape. The padding material gripping arm 3 takes out the cut padding material pieces and discharges them. The remaining scraps from the shearing are rolled back onto the take-up roller 4 for subsequent recycling processing.
[0038] Guide rollers 6 are provided between the unwinding roller 1 and the shearing assembly 2, and between the shearing assembly 2 and the winding roller 4. The guide rollers 6 can ensure that the pad material 13 is accurately positioned and conveyed along the path, avoiding jamming and entanglement.
[0039] The notched base 201 has a vertically extending discharge opening 204. The shearing die 202 is fitted into the discharge opening 204 from bottom to top, and the pad material gripping arm 3 is positioned above the discharge opening 204. The vertically positioned design of the pad material gripping arm 3 and the shearing die 202 (which acts as a cutter) avoids interference between components during operation and improves equipment operating efficiency.
[0040] The pad material gripping arm 3 includes a positioning pad 301, with multiple negative pressure suction heads 302 at its bottom. The positioning pad 301 is mounted on a three-axis moving arm 303. A ring-shaped cutter 205 with a protruding outer edge is detachably mounted on the shearing die 202, nested on the outer edge of the positioning pad 301. During shearing, the pad material 13 is first pushed upwards onto the positioning pad 301 by the ring-shaped cutter 205, and then sliced along the edge of the ring-shaped cutter 205 nested on the outer edge of the positioning pad 301, thus ensuring a stable and regular shape for the cut pad. Notably, to improve shearing smoothness, a circular blade can be installed at the bottom of the positioning pad 301. The detachable design of the ring-shaped cutter 205 facilitates timely maintenance or replacement when the blade wears.
[0041] In this embodiment, there are two discharge openings 204 and two shearing molds 202. The simultaneous operation of multiple cutters improves slicing efficiency. The shearing molds 202 are all mounted on a horizontal support plate 7. A linear driver 203 is connected below the horizontal support plate 7, and lifting guide rods 8 are slidably fitted onto both sides of the horizontal support plate 7. The horizontal support plate 7, in conjunction with the lifting guide rods 8, ensures smooth operation and accurate positioning of the cutters, preventing jamming and misalignment.
[0042] The padding material driving module 5 includes an upper roller shaft 501 and a lower roller shaft 502 synchronously driven by a rotary servo 503. The padding material 13 passes between the upper roller shaft 501 and the lower roller shaft 502. The lower roller shaft 502 is mounted on a lifting guide groove 504. The rear ends of the unwinding roller 1 and the winding roller 4 are both connected to a rotary driver (not shown in the figure). In this embodiment, both the rotary servo 503 and the rotary driver can be stepper motors, so as to drive the padding material 13 to move a fixed length after shearing, avoiding cutting deviation. The lifting guide groove 504 facilitates the adjustment of the distance between the upper roller shaft 501 and the lower roller shaft 502 according to the thickness of the padding material 13.
[0043] The pad gripping arm 3 is equipped with a dispensing head 9, which is connected to an adhesive delivery assembly (not shown in the figure) via a flexible conduit 10. A heating module 11 is installed inside the shearing die 202. The dispensing head 9 enables the equipment to automatically apply adhesive to the badge base plate before placing the cut pads, ensuring that the pads can be stably placed on the badge base plate and automatically completing the feeding and installation process.
[0044] Both the unwinding roller 1 and the winding roller 4 are detachably equipped with transparent baffles 12 at their front ends. The transparent baffles 12 facilitate workers to check the condition of the padding material 13 so that it can be replaced in a timely manner.
[0045] The above description is a further detailed explanation of the present utility model in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments. It should not be assumed that the specific implementation of the present utility model is limited to these descriptions. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of this application should still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
