Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a feeding platform, and more particularly to a safe unpacking and feeding platform. Background Technology

[0002] At the feeding end of the waste plastic bottle recycling production line, the recycled plastic bottles are often bundled and packaged by special equipment to form rectangular plastic bottle bags. The plastic bottle bags are surrounded by several parallel binding wires. The first step of the recycling production line is to remove the binding wires wrapped around the plastic bottle bags and push the plastic bottle bags into the disintegration equipment.

[0003] In the existing technology, the operator holds wire cutters and stands on an open platform. A forklift places bundled plastic bottles onto the platform, and the operator cuts the binding wire. However, during the cutting process, some wires may spring up or break due to the sudden release of stress generated during binding. Since the open platform lacks protective facilities, the operator may be injured by these springing wires. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model proposes a safe unpacking and feeding platform.

[0005] The platform includes: a workbench for temporarily placing plastic bottle bags, a safety fence located above one side of the workbench, and a ladder installed on the outside of the workbench;

[0006] The safety fence has an openable or closable safety door on the side facing the stairs, and an operating opening on the other side, allowing operators to stand inside the safety fence and use wire cutters to cut the binding wire wrapped around the plastic bottle bag. On the other side of the workbench, opposite the safety fence, there is a wire fixing device to temporarily press and stick the suddenly broken binding wire against the side of the plastic bottle bag when cutting the binding wire.

[0007] Furthermore, the area on the workbench used for placing plastic bottle bags is equipped with guide plates. The guide plates are located on both sides of the plastic bottle bags, and the opening size of the guide plates gradually narrows along the feeding direction of the plastic bottle bags. The minimum size of the opening is slightly larger than the width of the plastic bottle bags.

[0008] Furthermore, the wire fixing device includes: a connecting plate capable of reciprocating relative to the plastic bottle bag, a clamping block located on the side of the connecting plate near the plastic bottle bag, a cylinder for driving the connecting plate and the clamping block closer to or away from the plastic bottle bag, and a vertical plate for mounting the cylinder; wherein the clamping block is horizontally arranged along the winding direction of the binding wire, the number of clamping blocks is the same as the number of binding wires, and the height position is the same.

[0009] Furthermore, a notch is provided between the wire fixing device and the workbench to allow the cut binding wire to fall through the notch.

[0010] Furthermore, the lower area of ​​the guide plate is equipped with several non-powered sliding rollers arranged along the feeding direction of the plastic bottle square package, which makes it convenient for operators to push the unpacked plastic bottle square package along the guide plate to the next process.

[0011] The technical advantages of this invention are as follows: First, the safety fence and the openable / closable safety door form a physical isolation barrier, which, combined with the limiting design of the operating opening, effectively prevents the wire from breaking, significantly reducing the risk of injury to operators compared to traditional open platforms. At the moment of cutting, when the stress on the wire is released, the wire fixing device uses a cylinder to drive a clamping block to press the binding wire, preventing the wire's trajectory from deviating from the protected area. Second, a notch is provided as a drop channel for the cut binding wire, eliminating the risk of broken wire flowing into the next process along with the plastic bottle packaging. Third, the guide plate adopts a tapered flow guiding structure, combined with a non-powered sliding roller, greatly reducing the resistance to material pushing after unpacking. Fourth, the integrated design of the ladder and safety door allows for unobstructed passage for operators going up and down the platform. Attached Figure Description

[0015] The following is combined Figures 1 to 2 The embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below.

[0016] Figure 1The diagram illustrates the state of the feeding platform before the operator cuts the binding wire. The platform includes: a workbench 1 for temporarily placing plastic bottle bags 100, a safety fence 2 located above one side of the workbench 1, and a ladder 3 installed on the outside of the workbench 1. The safety fence 2 has an openable or closable safety door 21 on the side facing the ladder 3, and an operating opening 22 on the other side of the safety fence 2, allowing the operator to stand inside the safety fence 2 and use wire cutters to cut the binding wire 101 wrapped around the plastic bottle bags 100. On the other side of the workbench 1, opposite the side where the safety fence 2 is located, there is a wire fixing device 5, which is used to temporarily press the suddenly broken binding wire 101 against the side of the plastic bottle bags 100 when the binding wire 101 is cut.

[0017] The workbench 1 has a guide plate 12 in the area for placing the plastic bottle bag 100. The guide plate 12 is located on both sides of the plastic bottle bag 100. The opening size of the guide plate 12 gradually narrows along the feeding direction of the plastic bottle bag 100, and the minimum size of the opening is slightly larger than the width of the plastic bottle bag 100.

[0018] The lower area of ​​the guide plate 12 is provided with several non-powered sliding rollers 11 arranged along the feeding direction of the plastic bottle square package 100, which makes it convenient for the operator to push the unpacked plastic bottle square package 100 along the guide plate 12 to the next process.

[0019] Figure 2 The diagram illustrates the state of the feeding platform after the operator cuts the binding wire. The wire fixing device 5 includes: a connecting plate 54 capable of reciprocating relative to the plastic bottle bag 100; a clamping block 53 located on the side of the connecting plate close to the plastic bottle bag 100; a cylinder 51 that drives the connecting plate 54 and the clamping block 53 to move closer to or away from the plastic bottle bag 100; and a vertical plate 52 for mounting the cylinder 51. The clamping blocks 53 are horizontally arranged along the winding direction of the binding wire 101, and the number of clamping blocks 53 is the same as the number of binding wires 101, with the same height and position.

[0020] A notch 6 is provided between the wire fixing device 5 and the workbench 1 to allow the cut binding wire 101 to fall through the notch 6.

[0021] Working principle: The forklift places the plastic bottle bag 100 on the workbench 1. The gradually narrowing guide surfaces on both sides of the guide plate 12 automatically align with the position of the bag, ensuring that the winding direction of the binding wire 101 is consistent with the arrangement direction of the clamping block 53.

[0022] Before the operator enters the enclosure 2 through the safety door 21 and uses wire cutters to cut the wire 101 through the operating port 22, the cylinder 51 is activated, driving the clamping block 53 to press against the surface of the binding wire 101, ensuring that the trajectory of the binding wire 101 breaking or springing open after it is cut is within the protected area.

[0023] After unpacking, the plastic bottle square package is easily pushed by the operator to the next workstation or process along the guide plate 12 and through the non-powered sliding roller 11.

[0024] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
