[0001] This utility model generally relates to the field of computer embroidery machine technology, and more particularly to a bead tube processing device. Background Technology
[0002] Beaded embroidery is a special embroidery technique used in computerized embroidery machines. It enhances the three-dimensionality and decorative effect of the design by incorporating beads (slender, tubular decorative elements) during the embroidery process. This technique is widely used in high-end clothing, home textiles, and handicrafts. The addition of beads gives the embroidered pattern a distinct three-dimensional effect, enhancing its visual impact; the luster and texture of the beads add a sense of luxury and artistry to the embroidery; furthermore, the beads are made of materials such as metal, plastic, or glass, possessing strong wear resistance and durability.
[0003] In related technologies, glass bead tubes are cut and segmented manually, which is inefficient, time-consuming, labor-intensive, and can easily cause arm injuries and safety accidents. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model provides a bead processing device, including a first fixed seat assembly, a second fixed seat assembly, and a bead cutting assembly.
[0005] The first fixing seat assembly includes a first fixing seat with a plurality of fixing pins arranged in the same direction. The fixing pins are used to insert into the end of a material tube, and their rotation causes the material tube to rotate. The first fixing seat assembly and the second fixing seat assembly are spaced apart in a first direction, perpendicular to the direction in which the fixing pins are arranged. The second fixing seat assembly supports the material tube corresponding to each fixing pin. The tube cutting assembly is correspondingly arranged to the second fixing seat assembly. The tube cutting assembly includes a plurality of cutters arranged in the same direction, each cutter corresponding to a fixing pin. The cutters are arranged in a direction parallel to the direction in which the fixing pins are arranged. The cutters cooperate with the second fixing seat assembly to cut the material tube to form a tube bead.
[0006] As an implementation, the second fixing seat assembly includes an auxiliary support seat, on which a plurality of auxiliary support columns are arranged in the same direction. Each auxiliary support column corresponds to a fixing pin, and the arrangement direction of the auxiliary support columns is parallel to the arrangement direction of the fixing pins. Each auxiliary support column is provided with a support groove adapted to the material tube.
[0007] As one possible implementation, the cutter is positioned vertically corresponding to the auxiliary support column.
[0008] As a possible implementation, the cutter elastically cuts the material tube, and / or the auxiliary support column elastically supports the material tube.
[0009] As an alternative implementation, a first directional drive mechanism is also included, which causes the first fixed seat to move in the first direction toward or away from the auxiliary support seat.
[0010] As an implementation, the first direction drive mechanism includes a ball screw mechanism, which includes a cooperating screw and a nut. The length of the screw is set along the first direction, the screw rotates, and the nut causes the first fixed seat to reciprocate in the first direction.
[0011] As an alternative implementation, the first fixing seat assembly further includes a worm and a turbine, with the turbine sleeved on the fixing pin and engaging with the worm to cause the fixing pin to rotate.
[0012] As an implementation, the first fixing seat assembly further includes a worm and a turbine, with the turbine sleeved on the fixing pin and meshing with the worm, so that the fixing pin has a first cavity inside the first fixing seat, the length direction of the first cavity being parallel to the arrangement direction of the fixing pin, and the worm being disposed in the first cavity.
[0013] The fixing pin passes through the first cavity along the first direction, the fixing pin is perpendicular to the worm, and the turbine is installed at the fixing pin position in the first cavity.

[0015] As a possible implementation, the first support can reciprocate in the vertical direction.
[0016] In the above-described embodiment, multiple tubes are placed on a first fixed base and a second fixed base assembly. One end of each tube is located on the first fixed base, and the other end is located on the second fixed base assembly. The tube cutting assembly can simultaneously cut each tube to obtain tube beads.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the relevant utility model and not intended to limit the scope of the utility model. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings.
[0051] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0052] It should be understood that the terms "center," "longitudinal," "lateral," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer" used above to indicate orientation or positional relationships are based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and 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, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.
[0053] like Figures 1-24The bead processing device includes a first fixing seat assembly 10, a second fixing seat assembly 60, a pipe cutting assembly 50, and a first main frame 70a. The first fixing seat assembly 10 and the second fixing seat assembly 60 are located on the first main frame 70a.
[0054] The first fixing seat assembly includes a first fixing seat 11, on which a plurality of fixing pins 12 are arranged in the same direction. The fixing pins 12 are used to insert into the end of the material tube, and the rotation of the fixing pins 12 drives the material tube to rotate.
[0055] The first fixing seat assembly 10 and the second fixing seat assembly 60 are spaced apart in a first direction, which is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the fixing needles 12. The second fixing seat assembly 60 supports the material tube corresponding to each fixing needle 12.
[0056] The tube cutting assembly 50 is correspondingly arranged with the second fixing seat assembly 60. The tube cutting assembly 50 includes a plurality of cutters 5125 arranged in the same direction. Each cutter 5125 corresponds to a fixing needle 12. The arrangement direction of the cutters 5125 is parallel to the arrangement direction of the fixing needles 12. The cutters 5125 cooperate with the second fixing seat assembly 60 to cut the tube and form a tube bead.
[0057] In this embodiment, multiple tubes are placed on a first fixed base 11 and a second fixed base assembly 60. One end of each tube is located on the first fixed base 11, and the other end is located on the second fixed base assembly 60. The tube cutting assembly 50 can cut each tube simultaneously to obtain tube beads. This avoids safety accidents caused by manual cutting, reduces the labor intensity of operators, and improves the processing and production efficiency of tube beads. The tubes can be moved manually or by other mechanical structures to process and produce tube beads of different lengths according to requirements.
[0058] The following is at least in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Figures 1-24 The bead processing device is described as follows:
[0059] like Figure 24As shown, the first main frame 70a includes a frame body 75. A first mounting portion 73 is provided at the left end of the frame body 75, and a first fixed seat assembly 10 is located in the first mounting portion 73. A second mounting portion 74 is provided at the right end of the frame body 75, and a second fixed seat assembly 60 is located in the second mounting portion 74. A first mounting groove 71 is provided on the right side of the frame body 75, and a second mounting groove 72 is provided on the left side of the frame body 75. A first direction drive mechanism is provided in the second mounting groove 72 and the first mounting groove 71, respectively. The first direction drive mechanism has a power output end, which reciprocates in a first direction, which is the left-right direction. The first direction drive mechanism causes the first fixed seat 11 to move in the left-right direction, and the first fixed seat 11 can move closer to or away from the second fixed seat 66. For example, the first direction drive mechanism can be, but is not limited to, a ball screw mechanism. The ball screw mechanism includes a mating screw and a nut. The length of the screw is set along the left-right direction. The screw is located in the first mounting groove 71 and / or the second mounting groove 72, and the nut can reciprocate along the length of the screw. The lead screw rotates, and the lead nut drives the first fixed seat 11 to reciprocate in the left and right directions.
[0060] At least as Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 9 As shown, the first fixing seat assembly 10 includes a first fixing seat 11, fixing pins 12, a worm gear 13, and a turbine 14. The first fixing seat 11 has multiple fixing pins 12 arranged at equal intervals in the front-to-back direction. The length of each fixing pin 12 extends in the left-to-right direction, and the cross-section of the fixing pin 12 may be, but is not limited to, circular. A first cavity 111 is provided inside the first fixing seat 11, extending in the front-to-back direction, through which the fixing pins 12 pass.
[0061] The worm gear 13 is disposed within the first cavity 111, and the length direction of the worm gear 13 is the same as the length direction of the first cavity 111. Each fixing pin 12 corresponds to one turbine 14, such as... Figure 9 As shown, a turbine 14 is installed at the position of the fixed pin 12 in the first cavity 111. It is understood that each fixed pin 12 can have a turbine section, meaning the fixed pin 12 and the turbine 14 are integrally formed. In this way, the worm gear 13 cooperates with each turbine 14; the rotation of the worm gear 13 drives the rotation of each fixed pin 12. This rotation of the material tube ensures a smooth cutting process, reduces burrs and spatter, and improves cutting quality; it effectively prevents scratches or damage to the material tube surface; it reduces wear on the cutting tools; and it ensures a smooth cutting process, improving cutting efficiency.
[0062] The second fixing seat assembly 60 includes an auxiliary support seat 62, on which a plurality of auxiliary support columns 61 are arranged in the same direction. Each auxiliary support column 61 corresponds to a fixing pin 12. The arrangement direction of the auxiliary support columns 61 is parallel to the arrangement direction of the fixing pins 12. Each auxiliary support column 61 is provided with a support groove 611 adapted to the material tube.
[0063] Among them, such as Figures 17-19 As shown, the second fixing seat assembly 60 includes an auxiliary support seat 62 and a second fixing seat 66, arranged sequentially from left to right: the first fixing seat 11, the second fixing seat 66, and the auxiliary support seat 62. The second fixing seat 66 has a second groove adapted to the material tube, and multiple second grooves are provided on the second fixing seat 66. Each auxiliary support column 61 corresponds to one of the second grooves, and the arrangement direction of the second grooves is parallel to the arrangement direction of the auxiliary support columns 61. Each end of the material tube extends out of the second fixing seat 66, and the auxiliary support column 61 is located below the suspended portion of the material tube. The auxiliary support column 61 is arranged vertically.
[0064] like Figure 19 As shown, a second cavity extending in the front-to-back direction is provided in the auxiliary support base 62. The auxiliary support column 61 passes through the second cavity, and the lower end of the auxiliary support column 61 is located in the second cavity. A spring is sleeved on the lower end of the auxiliary support column 61, and the spring is located in the second cavity. This allows the auxiliary support column 61 to be installed on the auxiliary support base 62 by the spring, so that the auxiliary support column 61 elastically supports the material tube.
[0065] Furthermore, the auxiliary support 62 is capable of reciprocating motion in the vertical direction.
[0066] like Figure 18 As shown, the second fixed base assembly 60 also includes a connecting frame 63, a first linear guide mechanism 64, and a connecting base 65. Figure 20 As shown, the connecting seat 65 has a through elongated hole 651 and a second fixed seat mounting area 652. The second fixed seat 66 is fixedly connected to the second fixed seat mounting area 652. It should be noted that a second main frame 70b is connected to the right end of the first main frame 70a, and the second main frame 70b is located in the second mounting part 74. The connecting seat 65 is fixedly connected to the second main frame 70b.
[0067] The first linear guide mechanism 64 includes a sliding block and a guide rail. The guide rail is arranged vertically and is fixedly connected to the second main frame 70b. The sliding block is connected to a connecting frame 63, and the connecting frame 63 is fixedly connected to an auxiliary support base 62. Each auxiliary support column 61 is located within a through-elongated hole 651. Based on the first linear guide mechanism 64, the auxiliary support base 62 can reciprocate in the vertical direction, thereby driving the auxiliary support columns 61 to reciprocate in the vertical direction.
[0068] The tube cutting assembly 50 includes a cutter 5125. The cutter 5125 is movable and has a seventh switching position and an eighth switching position. The cutter 5125 is disposed close to the second fixing seat assembly 60 and cuts the tube to form a tube bead. In the eighth switching position, the cutter 5125 is disposed away from the second fixing seat assembly 60 and is located above the second fixing seat assembly 60.
[0069] like Figure 10 As shown, the pipe cutting assembly 50 includes a cutting section 51 and a first swing section 52. The cutting section 51 includes a support member 5121 and a cutting blade mounting member 5122. The first swing section 52 is connected to the support member 5121. The swing section 52 swings, causing the support member 5121 to swing. The cutting blade mounting member 5122 is connected to the support member 5121 and has a cutting blade mounting groove 51221. The cutting blade 5125 is mounted in the cutting blade mounting groove 51221 via a rotating shaft and can rotate around the rotating shaft. When the cutting blade 5125 is in the seventh switching position, the support member 5121 can reciprocate in the vertical direction, causing the cutting blade 5125 to reciprocate in the vertical direction.
[0070] The following is a detailed description of the cutting section 51:
[0071] like Figure 13 and Figure 14 As shown, the cutter unit 51 includes a support beam 511, a cutter structure 512, a first telescopic mechanism 513, a second telescopic mechanism 514, and a second linear guide mechanism 515. The cutter structure 512 is movably connected to the support beam 511 via the second linear guide mechanism 515. When the cutter 5125 is in the seventh switching position, the cutter structure 512 can reciprocate in the vertical direction, thereby driving the cutter 5125 of the cutter structure 512 to reciprocate in the vertical direction. The movable end of the second telescopic mechanism 514 is connected to the cutter structure 512. The second telescopic mechanism 514 can be a hydraulic or pneumatic mechanism, a linear motor mechanism, a lead screw and nut mechanism, etc., and this embodiment does not limit this.
[0072] like Figure 15 As shown, the cutter structure 512 includes a support member 5121, a cutter mounting member 5122, a second air pipe 5123, a pressing member 5124, and a cutter 5125. The support member 5121 may be plate-shaped, but is not limited to plate-shaped. The movable end of the second telescopic mechanism 514 is connected to the support member 5121.
[0073] like Figure 16As shown, the cutter mounting component 5122 has a cutter mounting groove 51221 extending in the front-to-back direction. The cutter 5125 is mounted in the cutter mounting groove 51221 via a rotating shaft. The cutter 5125 is arc-shaped or circular and can rotate around the rotating shaft when in contact with the material pipe. The cutter 5125 corresponds one-to-one with the aforementioned auxiliary support column 61. The cutter mounting component 5122 is threadedly connected to the support component 5121 via fasteners and is located at the lower end of the support component 5121.
[0074] like Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, the second air pipe 5123 is connected to the support member 5121 and is located at the lower end of the support member 5121, allowing it to swing with the cutter 5125. The second air pipe 5123 has a second air hole, which faces the cutter 5125 when the cutter 5125 is in the seventh switching position. When the cutter 5125 cuts the material tube and generates dust particles, the gas generated by the second air hole is continuously blown towards the cutter 5125, thus preventing dust particles from falling into the second groove. This helps to avoid the influence of dust particles on the material tube when placing a new material tube in the second groove.
[0075] like Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, the pressing member 5124 can be, but is not limited to, plate-shaped, and can be made of an elastic material, such as rubber, silicone, plastic, etc. An installation cavity 51211 is provided inside the support member 5121, and the pressing member 5124 is located within the installation cavity 51211, near the lower end of the support member 5121. The first telescopic mechanism 513 is at least partially located within the installation cavity 51211, and its movable end is connected to the pressing member 5124. Thus, on the one hand, the pressing member 5124 swings with the cutter 5125, and when the cutter 5125 is in the seventh switching position, the pressing member 5124 can elastically press against the material tube; on the other hand, when the cutter 5125 is in the seventh switching position, the pressing member 5124 can reciprocate vertically relative to the support member 5121 through the first telescopic mechanism 513, thereby further adjusting the magnitude of the elastic force exerted by the pressing member 5124 on the material tube.
[0076] In addition, at least as Figure 22 and Figure 23 As shown, the bead processing device also includes a first support base 82. The first fixed base 11, the first support base 82, the second fixed base 66, and the auxiliary support base 62 are arranged sequentially from left to right. The first support base 82 supports the middle of the material tube.
[0077] The first support seat 82 can reciprocate in the vertical direction. In this way, when the first fixed seat 11 reciprocates in the left and right directions, the first support seat 82 and the first fixed seat 11 can be prevented from interfering with each other.
[0078] The following is at least in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Figures 1-24 The working steps of the bead processing device are described below:
[0079] S111, a material tube is provided for each fixing pin 12 on the first fixing seat 11, such as Figure 4 As shown, the left end of the feed tube is inserted into the fixing pin 12, as... Figure 19 As shown, the right end of the material tube is positioned within the second groove of the second fixed base 66, and each auxiliary support column 61's support groove 611 supports one material tube. Currently, all cutters 5125 are in the eighth switching position, as shown... Figure 11 As shown, this arrangement helps to prevent the material tube from accidentally colliding with the support beam 511 of the cutter section 51 when the material tube is placed in the second groove;
[0080] S112, worm 13 and each turbine 14 cooperate, worm 13 rotates, causing each turbine 14 to rotate, which in turn causes each fixed pin 12 to rotate, so that each material tube rotates.
[0081] S113, the first direction drive mechanism drives the first fixed seat assembly 10 to move to the right by a first preset distance, and the first fixed seat 11 moves closer to the second fixed seat 66, wherein the first preset distance controls the length of the first bead tube;
[0082] S114, under the action of the first swinging part 52, the cutter 5125 switches from the eighth switching position to the seventh switching position. Based on the action of the first linear guide mechanism 64, the auxiliary support seat 62 moves upward in the vertical direction, driving the auxiliary support column 61 to move upward, so that the auxiliary support column 61 applies an upward force to the material tube. At the same time, based on the action of the second linear guide mechanism 515, the cutter structure 512 moves downward in the vertical direction, driving the pressing member 5124 and the cutter 5125 to move downward. The pressing member 5124 presses against the material tube, and the cutter 5125 applies a downward force to the material tube. Figure 19As shown, the cutter 5125 and the auxiliary support column 61 are arranged vertically opposite each other, clamping the material tube. During the cutting process, the force applied to the material tube by the cutter 5125 and the auxiliary support column 61 can prevent the material tube from vibrating or shifting, keeping the material tube stable and contributing to a flat cut position, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the first bead tube size. Because the auxiliary support column 61 elastically supports the material tube, it can prevent the material tube from vibrating or shifting, and also avoid affecting the rotation of the material tube. The setting of the pressing member 5124 further improves the stability of the material tube, as the pressing member 5124 is made of elastic material and does not affect the rotation of the material tube.
[0083] S115. During the cutting process of the cutting blade 5125, the second air hole faces the cutting blade 5125, so that the dust particles generated during cutting are away from the second groove of the second fixed seat 66, and the dust particles are prevented from falling into the second groove.
[0084] S116. After obtaining the first bead tube, the support beam 511 remains in the position corresponding to step S114. Based on the function of the first linear guide mechanism 64, the auxiliary support seat 62 moves downward in the vertical direction, causing the auxiliary support column 61 to move downward. The auxiliary support column 61 returns to its initial position and disengages from the material tube. Based on the function of the second linear guide mechanism 515, the cutter structure 512 moves upward in the vertical direction, causing the pressing member 5124 and the cutter 5125 to move upward. The pressing member 5124 and the cutter 5125 return to their initial positions and disengage from the material tube. In addition, the second air hole stops blowing air onto the cutter 5125.
[0085] S117, the first direction drive mechanism causes the first fixed seat assembly 10 to continue moving to the right by a second preset distance, and the first fixed seat 11 continues to move closer to the second fixed seat 66. The second preset distance controls the length of the second bead tube, which may be equal to or different from the length of the first bead tube.
[0086] S118, repeat S114, S115, S116 until the Nth bead tube, where N is a positive integer, and the entire tube cutting is completed;
[0087] S119, under the action of the first swinging part 52, the cutter 5125 switches from the seventh switching position to the eighth switching position. In the current position, the support beam 511 and the cutter 5125 are set away from the second fixed seat 66.
[0088] S120. Each fixing pin 12 on the first fixing seat 11 is reset with another feed tube, as described in S111, so it will not be repeated here.
[0089] It should be noted that the embodiments of this application do not limit the execution order of the above steps S111, S112, S113, S114, S115, and S116. In some embodiments, the cutter 5125 elastically cuts the material tube, and the second fixing seat assembly 60 non-elastically supports the material tube; or, in other embodiments, the cutter 5125 elastically cuts the material tube, and the second fixing seat assembly 60 elastically supports the material tube.
[0090] During the cutting process, the cutter 5125 elastically cuts the tube, and / or the auxiliary support column 61 elastically supports the tube. The force applied to the tube by the cutter 5125 and the auxiliary support column 61 prevents the tube from vibrating or shifting, keeping the tube stable and contributing to a smooth cut, thus ensuring the accuracy of the bead tube dimensions. Because the auxiliary support column 61 elastically supports the tube and the cutter 5125 elastically cuts it, either the auxiliary support column 61 or the cutter 5125 can prevent the tube from vibrating or shifting, and also avoid affecting the tube's rotation. The clamping element 5124 further improves the tube's stability, as it is made of elastic material and does not affect the tube's rotation.
[0091] In step S118, each fixing pin 12 on the first fixing seat 11 will have residual material from the cut material. This material needs to be manually removed from the fixing pin 12 so that the bead processing device can load new material tubes. However, due to the large number of fixing pins 12, the process of manually removing the material is cumbersome and wastes a lot of time, thus affecting the working efficiency of the bead processing device.
[0092] Based on this, the bead processing apparatus of this application further includes a material removal head mechanism 30. A fixing pin 12 is provided on the first fixed base 11, and the fixing pin 12 is used to insert into the end of the material tube. The fixing pin 12 cooperates with the material removal head mechanism 30 to disengage the material head located on the fixing pin 12. This automatically removes the material head from each fixing pin 12, avoiding manual removal of the material head, reducing the operator's labor intensity, shortening the material head collection time, and improving the processing efficiency of the bead tube.
[0093] In detail, the first fixed seat 11 is rotatable and has a first switching position and a second switching position. When the first fixed seat 11 is in the first switching position, the length of the fixing pin 12 is set along a first direction; when the first fixed seat 11 is in the second switching position, the length of the fixing pin 12 is set along a vertical direction or inclined, and the fixing pin 12 cooperates with the material pulling head mechanism 30 to disengage the material head located on the fixing pin 12 from the fixing pin 12.
[0094] Among them, such as Figure 4As shown, the first fixed seat 11 is fixedly connected to the rotating plate. The rotating plate drives the rotating shaft plate to rotate through a related mechanism, thereby causing the first fixed seat 11 to switch between a first switching position and a second switching position. When the first fixed seat 11 is in the first switching position, the length of the fixing pin 12 is set along the left-right direction; when the second fixed seat 11 is in the second switching position, the length of the fixing pin 12 is set along the vertical direction. The related mechanism can be a belt mechanism, a sprocket mechanism, a gear mechanism, etc., and this embodiment does not limit it.
[0095] like Figure 8 , Figure 22 and Figure 23 As shown, a material pulling head mechanism 30 is installed in the first mounting part 73, and the material pulling head mechanism 30 is located below the first fixed base 11. The material pulling head mechanism 30 includes a first friction roller 31 and a second friction roller 32. The axis of the first friction roller 31 is arranged parallel to the axis of the second friction roller 32, and the axes of the two extend in the front-back direction.
[0096] At least one of the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32 rotates. The sides of the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32 engage with the material head located on the fixed pin 12 through friction. The first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32 can clamp the material head on each fixed pin 12, applying a downward force to the material head to disengage it from the fixed pin 12. If both the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32 rotate, their rotation directions are opposite.
[0097] Furthermore, the outer surfaces of the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32 are provided with a friction layer, which includes a spiral pattern. Since the surface of the material tube is smooth, it is not conducive to the two friction rollers gripping it. The spiral pattern can significantly increase the friction between the friction rollers and the material tube, thereby improving the gripping and squeezing force of the friction rollers.
[0098] Furthermore, the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32 reciprocate synchronously in a second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction.
[0099] like Figure 8 , Figure 22 and Figure 23 As shown, the second direction is the front-to-back direction. The first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32 oscillate synchronously in the front-to-back direction. This allows the contact surface between the material head and the fixed needle 12 to continuously change, thereby reducing the friction between the material head and the fixed needle 12; it can also change the direction and angle of the force on the material head, making the extraction action more flexible.
[0100] Furthermore, the distance between the axes of the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32 is adjustable. This allows the material drawing mechanism 30 to adapt to materials of different diameters.
[0101] Furthermore, the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32 can reciprocate in the vertical direction. In this way, the height of the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32 can be adjusted according to the length of the material head, so as to ensure that the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32 can clamp material heads of different lengths.
[0102] It should be noted that the material head is removed by the material head removal mechanism 30 between steps S118 and S119, or between steps S119 and S120.
[0103] In step S111 above, the tube needs to be manually inserted into the fixing pin 12. However, due to the large number of fixing pins 12, the process of manually inserting the tube is cumbersome and wastes a lot of time, thus affecting the working efficiency of the bead processing device.
[0104] Based on this, the bead processing apparatus of this application further includes a second support base 81 and an auxiliary component 20. The second support base 81 is used to support the end of the material tube. The second support base 81 and the first fixed base 11 are spaced apart in the first direction, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the first fixed seat 11, the second support seat 81, and the first support seat 82 are arranged sequentially from left to right. The auxiliary component 20 cooperates with one end of the material tube to bring the material tube closer to the fixed pin 12 until the material tube is sleeved on the fixed pin 12. In this way, the material tube can be automatically inserted into each fixed pin 12, avoiding manual insertion of the material tube, reducing the labor intensity of the operator, shortening the insertion time of the material tube, and improving the processing efficiency of the bead tube.
[0105] Among them, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 and Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the auxiliary component 20 includes a third friction roller 21, which is movable and has a third switching position and a fourth switching position. In the third switching position, the third friction roller 21 is located close to the second support base 81 and rotates. The side of the third friction roller 21 is in frictional engagement with one end of the material tube so that the material tube is inserted into the fixing pin 12. In the fourth switching position, the third friction roller 21 is located away from the second support base 81 and is disengaged from one end of the material tube.
[0106] In detail, such as Figures 22-24 As shown, the second support base 81 has multiple third grooves arranged in the front-to-back direction, and the third grooves are adapted to the material tube. This helps to stabilize the position of the material tube, so that each material tube is correspondingly set with a fixing pin 12.
[0107] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the auxiliary component 20 includes a third friction roller 21, a second swing section 22, an auxiliary support base 24, and a synchronous belt assembly 25. The second swing section 22 is connected to the auxiliary support base 24, and the aforementioned first fixed base 11 is also connected to the auxiliary support base 24. In the aforementioned first direction drive mechanism, the lead screw nut is connected to the auxiliary support base 24. When the lead screw rotates, the lead screw nut drives the first fixed base 11 and the auxiliary support base 24 to reciprocate in the left-right direction.
[0108] The second oscillating part 22 causes the third friction roller 21 to switch between a third switching position and a fourth switching position, such as Figure 8 As shown, when the third friction roller 21 is in the third switching position, it is located directly above the second support 81. The left end of the material tube is sandwiched between the third friction roller 21 and the second support 81. Under the action of the third friction roller 21, the material tube moves to the left, approaching the fixing pin 12 until it is inserted into the fixing pin 12. After the material tube is inserted into the fixing pin 12, the third friction roller 21 switches from the third switching position to the fourth switching position. At the current moment, as shown... Figure 7 or Figure 8 As shown, the third friction roller 21 is positioned away from the second support base 81, and the third friction roller 21 is located above the first fixed base 11 or the second support base 81.
[0109] The synchronous belt assembly 25 includes a driving pulley 251 and a driven pulley 252. The driving pulley 251 is mounted on the output shaft of the drive motor, the drive motor is mounted on the second swing part 22, and the driven pulley 252 is coaxially arranged with the third friction roller 21, driving the third friction roller 21 to rotate.
[0110] Considering the material and strength of the tube, and to avoid deformation during insertion, the motion trajectory of the third friction roller 21 is chosen to be arc-shaped. An arc trajectory is smoother than a straight trajectory, effectively reducing impact and vibration during movement. Simultaneously, an arc trajectory enables high-precision motion control.
[0111] Furthermore, when the third friction roller 21 is in the fourth switching position, the third friction roller 21, the first fixed seat 11, and the second support seat 81 are projected onto the same horizontal plane. The projection of the third friction roller 21 overlaps with the projection of the first fixed seat 11, and there is a gap between the projection of the third friction roller 21 and the projection of the second support seat 81. In this way, when placing the material tube in the above steps S111 or S120, accidental collisions between the material tube and the third friction roller 21 can be avoided.
[0112] Furthermore, the second support 81 can reciprocate in the vertical direction. This prevents interference between the second support 81 and the first fixed seat 11 during the reciprocating motion of the first fixed seat 11 in the left-right direction via the first direction driving mechanism. Specifically, when the third friction roller 21 is in the third switching position, the axis of the third groove and the axis of the fixing pin 12 of the first fixed seat 11 are on the same straight line.
[0113] Furthermore, a rubber layer or a silicone layer is provided on the outer surface of the third friction roller 21. The rubber layer or silicone layer can increase the friction between the third friction roller 21 and the feed tube, which can further enable the feed tube to be inserted into the fixing pin.
[0114] In practical applications, during the process of inserting the material tube into the fixing pin 12, there is a problem that the material tube is not firmly inserted, which affects the subsequent cutting.
[0115] Based on this, such as Figure 3 As shown, the bead processing apparatus of this application further includes a material box assembly 40, which includes a material box 42 containing adhesive. The material box 42 cooperates with the fixing pin 12 so that the fixing pin 12 contacts the adhesive. Thus, before the bead is inserted into the fixing pin 12, adhesive is applied to the fixing pin 12. The adhesive increases the strength of the bead connection to the fixing pin 12, preventing insecure insertion and thus aiding subsequent cutting processes, such as ensuring bead stability, smooth bead cuts, and accurate bead dimensions.
[0116] The material box 42 moves in the first direction and has a fifth switching position and a sixth switching position. When the material box 42 is in the fifth switching position, the material box 42 is located below the first fixed base 11; when the material box 42 is in the sixth switching position, the material box 42 is located away from the first fixed base 11.
[0117] like Figure 22 and Figure 23 As shown, the cartridge assembly 40 includes a cartridge cover 41 and a cartridge 42 located within the cartridge cover 41. The cartridge cover 41 is fixedly connected to the first mounting portion 73, and the cartridge 42 moves in the left-right direction, having a fifth switching position and a sixth switching position. Figure 5As shown, when the material box 42 is in the sixth switching position, it is located inside the material box cover 41; when the material box 42 is in the fifth switching position, it moves from inside the material box cover 41 to below the fixing seat 11. At the current moment, the first fixing seat 11 switches from the first switching position to the second switching position, and the fixing pin 12 engages with the material box 42, with the end of the fixing pin 12 adhering to the adhesive material inside the material box 42. Then, the first fixing seat 11 switches from the second switching position to the first switching position, and the fixing pin 12 is inserted into the material tube. In this way, each fixing pin 12 is provided with adhesive material, and based on the combined action of the third friction roller 21 and the second support seat 81, the material tube is stably inserted into the fixing pin 12.
[0118] It should be noted that, as Figure 8 As shown, during the movement of the material box 42 in the left and right directions, the interference problem between the material box 42 and the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32 can be avoided because the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32 can reciprocate in the vertical direction.
[0119] In addition, the material box assembly 40 also includes a scraper assembly 43, which includes a scraper 431 and a connecting shaft 432 connecting the scraper 431. The connecting shaft 432 is connected inside the material box 42, such that the scraper 431 is located inside the material box 42, wherein the axis of the connecting shaft 432 extends in the front-back direction.
[0120] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the scraper 431 includes a scraping end face 4311 and a material leakage hole 4312 located near the scraping end face 4311. The length direction of the scraper 431 is parallel to the axis of the connecting shaft 432. The connecting shaft 432 is rotatably connected to the material box 42. The connecting shaft 432 can be rotated by electric motor drive, hydraulic drive, pneumatic drive, etc., and the connecting shaft 432 drives the scraper 431 to rotate.
[0121] During the movement of the material box 42, the scraper end face 4311 smooths the end face of the solid-liquid phase change material inside the material box 42, preventing unevenness of the solid-liquid phase change material end face from affecting the adhesion of the solid-liquid phase change material to the end of the fixing pin 12. During the smoothing process, the solid-liquid phase change material passes through the discharge hole 4312. The discharge hole 4312 reduces the contact area between the scraper 431 and the solid-liquid phase change material, making smoothing easier, controlling the smoothing force, and improving flatness. It also helps to discharge excess solid-liquid phase change material and avoids accumulation that affects the smoothing effect. As the solid-liquid phase change material is consumed, when the scraper 431 can no longer smooth the end face of the solid-liquid phase change material, the distance between the scraper end face 4311 and the end face of the solid-liquid phase change material is reduced by rotating the connecting shaft 432.
[0122] Furthermore, it also includes a heating assembly 83. The heating assembly 83 heats the fixing pin 12 of the first fixing seat 11 when it is in the first switching position.
[0123] Among them, such as Figure 8 As shown, the heating component 83 is connected to the second support base 81. The heating component 83 is located between the second support base 81 and the first fixed base 11. The viscosity of the solid-liquid phase change material decreases upon heating.
[0124] like Figure 8 , Figure 22 and Figure 23 As shown, the heating assembly 83 includes a first gas pipe, which is fixedly connected to the second support base 81. The first gas pipe is located directly below the fixing pin 12 of the first fixing base 11 in the first switching position. The first gas pipe has multiple first gas holes arranged in a front-to-back direction, each corresponding to a fixing pin 12. Gas is contained within the first gas pipe, and the gas is discharged from the first gas holes, burning and heating the fixing pin 12. The higher temperature of the fixing pin 12 melts the solid-liquid phase change material, ensuring that the end of the fixing pin 12 is fully covered with the solid-liquid phase change material, thus further ensuring the stability of the material pipe insertion into the fixing pin 12.
[0125] In addition, such as Figure 8 As shown, a receiving plate 84 is also connected to the second support 81, and the receiving plate 84 is located below the first air pipe. This can prevent solid-liquid phase change material that accidentally falls from the fixing pin 12 from affecting other mechanisms, such as the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32.
[0126] Considering the risk of damaging the third friction roller 21 during the process of the first gas pipe discharging gas to heat the fixing pin 12, the auxiliary component 20 also includes a first baffle plate 23. The first baffle plate 23 is connected to the second swing part 22 through a related connector, so that the first baffle plate 23 moves with the third friction roller 21.
[0127] like Figure 8 As shown, when the third friction roller 21 is in the third switching position, the first baffle plate 23 is located between the first air hole and the third friction roller 21, and is positioned close to the side of the third friction roller 21. In this way, the first baffle plate 23 can block the influence of the flame on the third friction roller 21, thereby ensuring the integrity of the third friction roller 21.
[0128] Before step S111, the solid-liquid phase change material is bonded to the end of the fixing needle 12. This process may include the following steps:
[0129] S211, the first gas hole of the first gas pipe discharges gas, and the combustion of the gas heats the fixing pin 12 of the first fixing seat 11 in the first switching position;
[0130] S212, the second support seat 81 moves downward in the vertical direction to avoid interference between the first air tube and the moving fixed pin 12; at the same time, the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32 move downward in the vertical direction to avoid interference between the material box 42 and the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32.
[0131] S213, the material box 42 moves to the right from inside the material box cover 41 until the material box 42 moves to the fifth switching position, that is, the material box 42 moves to the bottom of the first fixed seat 11;
[0132] S214, the first fixed seat 11 switches from the first switching position to the second switching position, the fixed pin 12 moves downward from the horizontal position, the fixed pin 12 cooperates with the material box 42, and the end of the fixed pin 12 is bonded with the adhesive material in the material box 42;
[0133] S215, the first fixing seat 11 switches from the second switching position to the first switching position, the fixing pin 12 returns to the horizontal position, and then step S111 is executed.
[0134] It should be noted that, considering the material removal process under the action of the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32, the material removal head is affected by the sticking material. Therefore, during the material removal process of the material removal mechanism 30 between steps S118 and S119, or between steps S119 and S120, before the material removal head is removed, the first air pipe discharges gas again to heat the fixing pin 12 on which the material head is sleeved. The sticking material is heated and its viscosity decreases, thereby facilitating the removal of the material head by the first friction roller 31 and the second friction roller 32.
[0135] At least as Figure 9 , Figure 22 and Figure 23 As shown, the bead processing device also includes a receiving hopper 90, which is installed near the second mounting part 74. The receiving hopper 90 is correspondingly arranged with the connecting seat 65 so that the beads can be completely recovered through the receiving hopper 90.
