Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material edge spreading and expansion technology, specifically to an edge spreading and expansion device. Background Technology
[0002] Edge spreading and width expansion involves unfolding or widening the material. This is generally achieved by increasing the lateral tension of the material through mechanical action, in order to achieve the purpose of edge spreading or wrinkle prevention, in order to meet the needs of the production process.
[0003] Existing edge-expanding devices are generally either threaded edge-expanding devices or bending roller edge-expanding devices. The advantages and disadvantages of these two devices are as follows:
[0004] 1. Threaded edge spreading and expansion device: The roller is symmetrically engraved with oblique groove threads from the center direction. The oblique groove threads have a certain angle with the axis. The material is spread by the friction generated on both sides of the threaded edge spreading roller when the material passes through it.
[0005] The device has a simple structure and low cost, but the angle of edge expansion is fixed, and it is easy to scratch the material during the edge expansion process, and it is easy to leave thread marks on the material during the edge expansion process.
[0006] 2. Bending Roller Edge Expanding Device: The bending roller is an arc-shaped roller made of elastic rubber, with both ends fixed and the roller body having an arc-shaped protrusion. When the material moves tightly against the roller surface under pressure, the bending roller rotates around its arc axis due to the friction between the material and the roller surface. The material is subjected to unevenly distributed friction in the weft direction (transverse direction), forming a tension gradient that increases from the center to both sides, thereby achieving edge expansion.
[0007] The device has a simple structure and low cost, but the angle of the expansion is fixed and cannot adapt to different expansion ratios. Utility Model Content
[0008] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an edge-expanding device. The edge-expanding ratio is adjusted by two rotating seats with adjustable rotation angles.

[0033] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0034] This embodiment provides an edge-stretching and width-expanding device, the overall structure of which is as follows: Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the device includes a bottom support plate 1, a rotating seat 2, a track 3, and a motor 4.
[0035] Two rotating seats 2 are symmetrically arranged on the bottom support plate 1, and the rotation angle of each rotating seat 2 can be adjusted according to actual needs.
[0036] The specific structure of the rotating seat 2: The rotating seat 2 includes an L-shaped side plate 21 and a bottom plate 23, as well as two support plates 22 for supporting the side plate 21 and the bottom plate 23. The side plates 21 of the two rotating seats 2 are provided with opposing tracks 3. The bottom plate 23 is provided with concentric arc-shaped grooves 24. The bottom plate 2 is fixed to the bottom support plate 1 by bolts passing through the arc-shaped grooves 24 and threaded holes on the bottom support plate 1. After loosening the bolts, rotating the rotating seat 2 can adjust the installation angle of the rotating seat 2 on the bottom support plate 1. The position of the arc-shaped grooves 24 on the bottom plate 23 is as follows: Figure 3 As shown.
[0037] The angle adjustment range of the arc groove 24 is 5° to 30° to adapt to the edge expansion requirements of different materials and processes.
[0038] To clamp the material 5 securely during actual use and prevent it from shifting, each rotating seat 2 is equipped with two pairs of upper and lower clamping tracks 3. The opposite sides of the material 5 are clamped between the upper and lower clamping tracks 3 on both sides. The actual operating state of the device is as follows: Figure 4 As shown.
[0039] Furthermore, in order to protect the material during the expansion of the edge and prevent the material from being scratched by the device, the track 3 is a flexible rubber track, and a silicone protective layer is provided on the surface of the track 3, with a thickness of 0.5mm to 5mm.
[0040] Furthermore, in order to prevent the material from stacking between the two pairs of tracks 3, to prevent the material from wrinkling when expanding the edge, and to further ensure the stability of the material clamping, the upper tracks 31 of the two pairs of tracks 3 on the same rotating seat 2 are at the same height, and the lower tracks 31 of the two pairs of tracks 3 on the same rotating seat 2 are at the same height.
[0041] Each pair of tracks 3 is equipped with a motor 4 to independently drive the track 3, and the driving speed of each motor 4 is adjusted according to the linear speed of the material production line. The device is set after the production line to expand the edges of the produced material. Each motor 4 tracks and matches the linear speed of the customer's production line, thereby preventing material breakage or accumulation due to speed mismatch. At the same time, the speed of each motor 4 can also be finely adjusted according to the rotation angle of the rotating seat 2 in actual production to prevent wrinkles from occurring in the material during edge expansion.
