Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of shoe insole processing equipment, and in particular to an automatic feeding device for shoe insole heel shaping device. Background Technology

[0002] Insoles are an important component of shoes, greatly improving comfort. During insole processing, the heel area is typically shaped to better conform to the user's foot shape, further enhancing comfort. Current technology usually involves shaping and loading the insole heel: first, workers manually place the insole to be processed on a fixed station, then a controller presses down a shaping block to shape the heel. This loading method has several drawbacks: first, high labor costs and low processing efficiency; second, the placement of the insole relies entirely on the worker's experience, potentially leading to inaccurate placement and an insole that doesn't meet shape requirements after shaping. Therefore, a new loading device is needed. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention provides an automatic feeding device for insole heel shaping devices that improves automation and ensures accurate insole feeding position.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model: An automatic feeding device for a shoe insole heel shaping device, comprising a device base, a shaping device connected to the device base, a feeding device connected to the device base, and a controller. The shaping device includes a support plate fixedly connected to the device base, a first sliding base slidably connected to the device base, a shaping block fixedly connected to the sliding base, a first hydraulic cylinder for driving the first sliding base to move vertically, and a heating element connected to the shaping block. The shaping block is located directly above the support plate. The feeding device includes a fixed frame fixedly connected to the device base, a second sliding base slidably connected to the fixed frame, a limiting frame fixedly connected to the second sliding base, an infrared sensor fixedly connected to the fixed frame, a first rotating base movably connected to the device base, a third sliding base slidably connected to the first rotating base, a vacuum suction cup fixedly connected to the third sliding base, a connecting pipe connected to the vacuum suction cup, and a controller connected to the connecting pipe. The system includes a vacuum pump, a second rotating base connected to the equipment base, several connecting rods connected to the second rotating base, a limiting base connected to the connecting rods, a second hydraulic cylinder for driving the second sliding base to move vertically, a third hydraulic cylinder for driving the third sliding base to move vertically, a first rotary motor for driving the first rotating base to rotate, and a second rotary motor for driving the second rotating base to rotate. The lower surface of the limiting base is at the same height as the upper surface of the support plate. When the second rotating base rotates by a certain angle, one of the limiting bases is located directly below the shaping block. When the first rotating base and the second rotating base rotate by a certain angle respectively, the vacuum suction cup is located directly above one of the limiting bases. The limiting base is provided with a limiting groove. The controller is electrically connected to the infrared sensor, the first hydraulic cylinder, the second hydraulic cylinder, the third hydraulic cylinder, the first rotary motor, the second rotary motor, the heating element, and the vacuum pump.

[0005] Using the above technical solution, firstly, the insoles to be processed are stacked on the limiting frame. Then, the controller controls the first rotary motor to rotate the first rotary base by a certain angle so that the vacuum suction cup is aligned directly above the insoles to be processed. Next, the controller controls the third hydraulic cylinder to move the third sliding base vertically downward, so that the vacuum suction cup contacts the topmost insoles. The controller then controls the vacuum pump to start working, so that the vacuum suction cup holds the topmost insoles. Then, the controller controls the first and second rotary motors to rotate the first and second rotary bases by a certain angle, so that the insoles held by the vacuum suction cup are directly above the limiting base. Then, the controller controls the third sliding base to slide a certain distance vertically, so that the insoles to be processed are placed in the limiting groove on the limiting base. Finally, the controller controls the second rotary motor to rotate the second rotary base by a certain angle, so that the limiting base is directly below the shaping block. Since the lower surface of the limiting base and the upper surface of the support plate are at the same height, the support plate provides support to the limiting base. The controller controls the first hydraulic cylinder to drive the first sliding base to move vertically downward, and the controller also controls the heating element to provide heat energy to the shaping block, thereby driving the shaping block to press down and complete the shaping work of the heel position of the insole. Then, the second rotary motor drives the second rotary base to continue rotating a certain distance, so that the limiting base is disengaged from below the positioning block. Then, the worker can manually remove the processed insole from the limiting base. In addition, when the insole on the limiting frame is removed, the infrared signal emitted by the infrared sensor will not be blocked by the insole located at the top. The infrared sensor sends an electrical signal to the controller, and the controller controls the second hydraulic cylinder to drive the second sliding base to move vertically upward until the height of the uppermost insole matches the position of the infrared sensor. This can greatly improve the automation level of the device and reduce labor costs.

[0006] A further feature of this invention is as follows: The equipment base is equipped with a limiting baffle slidably connected to the equipment base and a fourth hydraulic cylinder for driving the limiting baffle to move vertically. When the limiting baffle moves vertically downwards a certain distance and the limiting base contacts the limiting baffle, the limiting base is located directly below the shaping block. The controller is electrically connected to the fourth hydraulic cylinder. Using the above technical solution, when the limiting baffle is in its initial state, the bottom of the limiting baffle is lower than the height of the limiting base. Therefore, when the second rotating base drives the limiting base to move towards the shaping block, the limiting base will contact the limiting baffle. At this time, the insole placed on the limiting base is directly below the shaping block, which greatly improves the accuracy of the shoe sole shaping work. After the shaping work is completed, the controller controls the fourth hydraulic cylinder to drive the limiting baffle to move vertically upwards until the height of the bottom of the limiting baffle is greater than the height of the upper surface of the limiting base. This ensures that the limiting base can smoothly leave directly below the shaping block.

[0007] A further feature of this invention is that a CCD vision inspection instrument is also provided on the device base. When the second rotating base is in the initial state, the CCD vision inspection instrument is located directly above the limiting base, and the CCD vision inspection instrument is electrically connected to the controller.

[0008] Using the above technical solution, after the insole to be processed is placed on the limiting base, the controller controls the second rotary motor to drive the second rotary base to rotate at a certain angle, so that the limiting base is directly below the CCD vision inspection instrument. The CCD vision inspection instrument captures the image information of the limiting base and compares it with the standard image information to detect whether the insole is correctly placed on the limiting base. If the insole is placed in the correct position, the next processing step is carried out; otherwise, an alarm is issued and the staff makes manual adjustments. This can further improve the accuracy of the processed insole.

[0009] Further features of this invention: the bottom of the limiting base is provided with several first through holes; the equipment base is provided with a connecting base fixedly connected to the equipment base and a finished product collection frame connected to the equipment base; the connecting base is provided with several second through holes, an air outlet pipe connected to the second through holes, and a blower connected to the air outlet pipe; when the second rotating base rotates a certain angle, the positions of the first through holes and the second through holes correspond; the central axis of the first through holes and the central axis of the second through holes are respectively at a 45-degree angle to the vertical plane; the controller is electrically connected to the blower.

[0010] Using the above technical solution, after processing is completed, the controller controls the second rotary motor to drive the second rotary base to rotate at a certain angle, thereby causing the limiting base to move directly above the connecting base, and making the positions of the first through hole and the second through hole correspond. Then, the controller controls the blower to start working, so that the air force generated by the blower blows into the first through hole through the connecting pipe. The air force blows the insole up and falls into the finished product collection box, completing the automatic discharge work. This can further improve the automation level of the device and reduce labor costs. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0014] like Figure 1-2As shown, an automatic feeding device for a shoe insole heel shaping device includes a base 1, a shaping device 2 connected to the base 1, a feeding device 3 connected to the base 1, and a controller 4. The shaping device 2 includes a support plate 5 fixedly connected to the base 1, a first sliding base 6 slidably connected to the base 1, a shaping block 7 fixedly connected to the sliding base, a first hydraulic cylinder 8 for driving the first sliding base 6 to move vertically, and a heating element 9 connected to the shaping block 7. The shaping block 7 is located directly above the support plate 5. The feeding device 3 includes a fixed frame 10 fixedly connected to the equipment base 1, a second sliding base 11 slidably connected to the fixed frame 10, a limiting frame 12 fixedly connected to the second sliding base 11, an infrared sensor 13 fixedly connected to the fixed frame 10, a first rotating base 14 movably connected to the equipment base 1, a third sliding base 15 slidably connected to the first rotating base 14, a vacuum suction cup 16 fixedly connected to the third sliding base 15, a connecting pipe 17 connected to the vacuum suction cup 16, a vacuum pump 18 connected to the connecting pipe 17, and a connection to the equipment base 1. The system includes a second rotating base 19 for the base 1, several connecting rods 20 connected to the second rotating base 19, a limiting base 21 connected to the connecting rods 20, a second hydraulic cylinder 22 for driving the second sliding base 11 to move vertically, a third hydraulic cylinder 23 for driving the third sliding base 15 to move vertically, a first rotary motor 24 for driving the first rotating base 14 to rotate, and a second rotary motor 25 for driving the second rotating base 19 to rotate. The lower surface of the limiting base 21 is at the same height as the upper surface of the support plate 5. When the second rotating base 19 rotates at a certain angle, one of the limiting bases 21 is located directly below the shaping block 7. When the first rotating base 14 and the second rotating base 19 rotate at a certain angle, the vacuum suction cup 16 is located directly above one of the limiting bases 21. The limiting base 21 is provided with a limiting groove 26. The controller 4 is electrically connected to the infrared sensor 13, the first hydraulic cylinder 8, the second hydraulic cylinder 22, the third hydraulic cylinder 23, the first rotary motor 24, the second rotary motor 25, the heating element 9, and the vacuum pump 18.

[0015] First, the insoles to be processed are stacked on the limiting frame 12. Then, the controller 4 controls the first rotary motor 24 to drive the first rotating base 14 to rotate at a certain angle so that the vacuum suction cup 16 is aligned directly above the insoles to be processed. Then, the controller 4 controls the third hydraulic cylinder 23 to drive the third sliding base 15 to move vertically downward, so that the vacuum suction cup 16 contacts the topmost insoles. The controller 4 controls the vacuum pump 18 to start working, so that the vacuum suction cup 16 picks up the topmost insoles. Then, the controller 4 controls the third hydraulic cylinder 23 to move the third sliding base 15 vertically downward, so that the vacuum suction cup 16 contacts the topmost insoles. A rotary motor 24 and a second rotary motor 25 respectively drive the first rotating base 14 and the second rotating base 19 to rotate by a certain angle, so that the insole held by the vacuum suction cup 16 is directly above the limiting base 21. Then, the controller 4 controls the third sliding base 15 to slide a certain distance vertically, so that the insole to be processed is placed in the limiting groove 26 on the limiting base 21. Then, the controller 4 controls the second rotary motor 25 to drive the second rotating base 19 to rotate by a certain angle, so that the limiting base 21 is directly above the shaping block 7. Below, since the lower surface of the limiting base 21 is at the same height as the upper surface of the support plate 5, the support plate 5 provides support to the limiting base 21. The controller 4 controls the first hydraulic cylinder 8 to drive the first sliding base 6 vertically downwards, and the controller 4 also controls the heating element 9 to provide heat to the shaping block 7, thereby causing the shaping block 7 to press down and complete the shaping work at the heel of the insole. Then, the second rotary motor 25 drives the second rotary base 19 to continue rotating a certain distance, causing the limiting base 21 to disengage from below the positioning block. The finished insole is then manually removed from the limiting base 21 by the staff. In addition, when the insole on the limiting frame 12 is removed, the infrared signal emitted by the infrared sensor 13 will not be blocked by the insole located at the top. The infrared sensor 13 sends an electrical signal to the controller 4, and the controller 4 controls the second hydraulic cylinder 22 to drive the second sliding base 11 to move vertically upward until the height of the uppermost insole matches the position of the infrared sensor 13. This can greatly improve the automation level of the device and reduce labor costs.

[0016] The equipment base 1 is provided with a limiting baffle 27 slidably connected to the equipment base 1 and a fourth hydraulic cylinder 28 for driving the limiting baffle 27 to move in the vertical direction. When the limiting baffle 27 moves vertically downward a certain distance and the limiting base 21 contacts the limiting baffle 27, the limiting base 21 is located directly below the shaping block 7. The controller 4 is electrically connected to the fourth hydraulic cylinder 28.

[0017] When the limiting baffle 27 is in its initial state, the bottom of the limiting baffle 27 is lower than the height of the limiting base 21. Therefore, when the second rotating base 19 drives the limiting base 21 to move in the direction of the shaping block 7, the limiting base 21 will contact the limiting baffle 27. At this time, the insole placed on the limiting base 21 is directly below the shaping block 7, which can greatly improve the accuracy of the shoe sole shaping work. After the shaping work is completed, the controller 4 controls the fourth hydraulic cylinder 28 to drive the limiting baffle 27 to move vertically upward until the height of the bottom of the limiting baffle 27 is greater than the height of the upper surface of the limiting base 21. This ensures that the limiting base 21 can smoothly leave directly below the shaping block 7.

[0018] The device base 1 is also equipped with a CCD vision inspection instrument 29. When the second rotating base 19 is in the initial state, the CCD vision inspection instrument 29 is located directly above the limiting base 21. The CCD vision inspection instrument 29 is electrically connected to the controller 4.

[0019] After the insole to be processed is placed on the limiting base 21, the controller 4 controls the second rotary motor 25 to drive the second rotary base 19 to rotate a certain angle, so that the limiting base 21 is directly below the CCD vision inspection instrument 29. The CCD vision inspection instrument 29 captures the image information of the limiting base 21 and compares it with the standard image information to detect whether the insole is correctly placed on the limiting base 21. If the insole is placed in the correct position, the next processing step is carried out; otherwise, an alarm is issued and the staff makes manual adjustments. This can further improve the accuracy of the processed insole.

[0020] The bottom of the limiting base 21 is provided with a plurality of first through holes 30. The equipment base 1 is provided with a connecting base 31 fixedly connected to the equipment base 1 and a finished product collection frame 32 connected to the equipment base 1. The connecting base 31 is provided with a plurality of second through holes 33, an air outlet pipe 34 connected to the second through holes 33 and a blower 35 connected to the air outlet pipe 34. When the second rotating base 19 rotates a certain angle, the positions of the first through holes 30 and the second through holes 33 correspond. The central axis of the first through hole 30 and the central axis of the second through hole 33 are respectively at a 45-degree angle to the vertical plane. The controller 4 is electrically connected to the blower 35.

[0021] After processing is completed, the controller 4 controls the second rotary motor 25 to drive the second rotary base 19 to rotate at a certain angle, thereby causing the limiting base 21 to move directly above the connecting base 31, and making the positions of the first through hole 30 and the second through hole 33 correspond. Then, the controller 4 controls the blower 35 to start working, so that the air force generated by the blower 35 blows into the first through hole 30 through the connecting pipe 17. The air force blows the insole up and falls into the finished product collection box 32, completing the automatic discharge work. This can further improve the automation level of the device and reduce labor costs.
