[0038] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the description of the present utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description. They do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model. Example

[0039] A lower cutting mechanism of a slitting machine, such as Figures 1-8 As shown, the device includes a bottom cutter roller 1, a lower cutter 2, and a cutter sleeve 3. A locking nut (not shown) is threadedly connected to the bottom cutter roller 1. The locking nut is fixed to the axial end face of the bottom cutter roller 1 by the threaded connection. The lower cutter 2 and the cutter sleeve 3 are pressed against the outer circumference of the bottom cutter roller 1 by the thread preload. This connection method is prior art and has been described in detail in the prior art application document with application number "CN202420958708.7", so it will not be described in detail here.

[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the lower cutter 2 and the cutter sleeve 3 are both sleeved on the outer periphery of the bottom cutter roller 1. The lower cutter 2 and the cutter sleeve 3 are both set as separate components. The outer peripheral wall of the separate component of the lower cutter 2 is provided with a cutting groove, which cooperates with the upper cutter through the cutting groove.

[0041] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the split assembly includes a split part 4, an insert part 5, and a snap-fit ​​part 7. All three parts are made of high-strength alloy steel and have undergone surface hardening treatment to improve wear resistance. Two split parts 4 are provided, each with a semi-circular arc structure to completely fit the outer circumference of the bottom cutter roller 1. A cutting groove is formed on the split part 4. The insert part 5 and the snap-fit ​​part 7 are fixedly disposed at opposite ends of the split part 4. The split part 4 has a notch 6 at the end where the snap-fit ​​part 7 is located, and an opening communicating with the notch 6 is also provided on the split part 4. When installing and fixing the two split parts 4, the insert part 5 and the snap-fit ​​part 7 on the two split parts 4 need to be connected. The insert part 5 passes through the opening and inserts into the notch 6, connecting with the snap-fit ​​part 7. The snap-fit ​​part 7 is detachably connected to the insert part 5, thus achieving the installation and fixing of the two split parts 4.

[0042] like Figures 2-4 As shown, the snap-fit ​​part 7 includes a housing 8 fixedly connected to the split part 4, a sliding member 9 for detachable connection with the insert part 5, and a spring 10 for pushing the sliding member 9 against the insert part 5. The sliding member 9 is slidably disposed on the housing 8, and one end can slide into the notch 6. The detachable connection with the insert part 5 is achieved by the end that can slide into the notch 6. The spring 10 is located between the sliding member 9 and the housing 8 and abuts against each other. Thus, the elastic support force of the spring 10 ensures that the sliding member 9 always has one end sliding into the notch 6 when no external force is applied, thereby ensuring the connection between the sliding member 9 and the insert part 5 during installation.

[0043] The housing 8 is designed as a split structure, which facilitates the assembly of components into the housing 8 during the production and installation process. The sliding part 9 has a waist-shaped groove on the side wall near the housing 8. A limiting pin embedded in the waist-shaped groove is fixedly connected to the housing 8. Through the cooperation of the limiting pin and the waist-shaped groove, the sliding direction and distance of the sliding part 9 are restricted, thus preventing the sliding part 9 from falling off.

[0044] Among them, such as Figure 4 As shown, the slider 9 has an inclined surface on the side near the opening, and the side wall of the insert 5 that is used to fit with the inclined surface of the slider 9 is also inclined. This makes it easier for the insert 5 to form a component force that pushes the slider 9 back when it comes into contact with the slider 9, thereby facilitating the strong connection between the two.

[0045] At the same time, such as Figure 6 As shown, the embedding part 5 is provided with a limiting groove 18 for the sliding member 9 to be fitted and fixed. After the inclined side wall of the embedding part 5 is separated from the sliding member 9, the position of the sliding member 9 coincides with the limiting groove 18. Thus, the spring 10 pushes the sliding member 9 into the limiting groove 18, thereby realizing the tight connection between the embedding part 5 and the sliding member 9.

[0046] And as Figure 4 As shown, the slider 9 is also provided with a pressing surface on the side near the embedded part 5. The pressing surface is connected to the inclined surface, so that when the slider 9 needs to be retracted, the connection between the slider 9 and the embedded part 5 can be released by pushing the pressing surface.

[0047] like Figure 4 As shown, the snap-fit ​​part 7 also includes a positioning member 11 for fixing the sliding position of the slider 9 and a second spring 12 for pushing the positioning member 11 to abut against the slider 9. The positioning member 11 is slidably disposed in the housing 8, while the second spring 12 is located between the positioning member 11 and the housing 8 and abuts against each other. Thus, after pushing the slider 9 back, the external force on the slider 9 is removed, and the positioning member 11 controls the slider 9 to be fixed in position after backing up, ensuring that the connection between the slider 9 and the embedded part 5 is released.

[0048] And as Figure 7 As shown, a positioning groove 13 is provided on the slider 9 so that when the slider 9 is away from the embedded part 5, the position of the positioning groove 13 coincides with the position of the positioning member 11, and the positioning member 11 can be embedded in the positioning groove 13, thereby enhancing the connection between the positioning member 11 and the slider 9. At the same time, the positioning groove 13 can also serve as a warning to the staff whether the slider 9 has returned to the correct position.

[0049] like Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, the positioning member 11 has an unlocking groove 14, the split assembly is equipped with an unlocking member 15, and the housing 8 has an insertion port 16 that communicates with the interior. When the unlocking member 15 is inserted into the housing 8 through the insertion port 16, the unlocking member 15 abuts against the inner wall of the unlocking groove 14 and pushes the positioning member 11 out of the positioning groove 13, thereby releasing the position fixation of the sliding member 9 and resetting the position of the sliding member 9.

[0050] like Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, the sidewalls of the unlocking component 15 and the unlocking groove 14 that abut against each other are both inclined. The inclined sidewalls form a component force that pushes the positioning component 11 upward, which facilitates the positioning component 11 to be pushed out of the positioning groove 13. At the same time, the sidewalls of the unlocking component 15 and the unlocking groove 14 that abut against each other are both inclined, and a triangular protrusion 19 is formed at the position where the unlocking groove 14 abuts against the inner wall of the unlocking component 15. Two symmetrically arranged sidewalls of the triangular protrusion 19 are used to abut and guide the unlocking component 15 in different directions, so that the staff can insert the unlocking component 15 from different sides as needed.

[0051] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, two embedded parts 5 are symmetrically arranged on each split part 4, and two sliding parts 9 are also provided accordingly, thereby enhancing the connection between the two. A telescopic rod 17 is fixedly connected between the two sliding parts 9. The telescopic rod 17 guides and stabilizes the sliding of the sliding parts 9, making the overall transmission smoother and more stable. The spring 10 is sleeved on the outside of the telescopic rod 17. The telescopic rod 17 prevents the spring 10 from undergoing radial deformation and protects the spring 10.

[0052] Among them, such as Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the telescopic rod 17 adopts a tubular sleeve structure, which is existing technology and will not be described here.

[0053] Working principle: When the lower cutter 2 needs to be replaced, first loosen the locking nut, and then the operator pushes the sliding member 9 inward to separate the sliding member 9 from the embedded part 5. As the pushing distance increases, the position of the positioning groove 13 will coincide with the position of the positioning member 11. Thus, the spring 12 pushes the positioning member 11 into the positioning groove 13, thereby maintaining the separation of the sliding member 9 from the embedded part 5. Then, the operator repeats the above operation on the sliding member 9 on the other side of the split part 4. However, before repeating the above operation, another operator needs to hold the lower part of the split part 4 to prevent the lower part of the split part 4 from falling off directly after the connection is separated. After disconnecting the sliding members 9 on both sides of the split part 4 from the embedded part 5, the old lower cutter 2 can be removed and replaced with a new lower cutter 2.

[0054] When installing a new lower cutter 2, one of the split parts 4 is attached to the outer periphery of the bottom cutter roller 1, and then the other split part 4 is aligned and attached to it to achieve a fixed installation. During the attachment process, the insert 5 passes through and inserts into the notch 6, so that the insert 5 abuts against the slider 9. The inclined sidewalls of the insert 5 and the slider 9 form a component force that pushes the slider 9 back, so that the insert 5 passes smoothly through the slider 9. The slider 9 changes from abutting against the head of the insert 5 to abutting against the limiting groove 18 of the insert 5. The spring 10 pushes the slider 9 outward, so that the slider 9 is embedded in the limiting groove 18, thus fixing the position of the insert 5 and the slider 9. Then tighten the locking nut to fix the position of the new lower cutter 2.

[0055] Both the lower cutter 2 and the blade sleeve 3 are designed as separate components, so when the blade sleeve 3 needs to be replaced, the same operating steps can be followed.

[0056] Meanwhile, during the process of the aforementioned embedded part 5 pushing the slider 9 back, due to insufficient back distance, the position of the positioning groove 13 has not yet coincided with the position of the positioning part 11, thereby ensuring that the slider 9 slides normally.

[0057] For the old lower cutter 2 that has been replaced, the unlocking component 15 is inserted into the unlocking groove 14 through the insertion port 16. As the unlocking component 15 is inserted further, it can push the positioning component 11 away from the sliding component 9, and finally release the positioning component 11 from fixing the position of the sliding component 9, so that the position of the sliding component 9 is reset. Thus, the old lower cutter 2 can be reassembled and installed. After the staff inspects and repairs it, if the old lower cutter 2 can still be used, it can be reinstalled and used to reduce the cost of use.

[0058] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0059] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
