Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of geocells, and in particular to a geocell strip folding machine. Background Technology

[0002] Geocells, as a new type of civil engineering material, are widely used in engineering fields such as slope protection and roadbed reinforcement. Their core structure requires strips to be folded multiple times in a Z-shape to form a grid-like spatial support system. In traditional manufacturing processes, the folding of the strips relies entirely on manual operation, requiring repeated bending and fixing of each segment. This has several significant drawbacks: firstly, manual folding requires adjusting the position of each strip segment, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production; secondly, manual operation easily leads to uneven folding spacing, affecting the overall load-bearing capacity of the geocell.

[0042] Please see Figures 1 to 6 This application provides a geocell strip folding machine, including a support plate 1, a plurality of movable rods 2 and fixed rods 3 (the fixed rods 3 are specifically distributed at equal intervals on a second column, which is fixed to the support plate 1), a drive unit 4, a fixing device 5, and a tensioning device 6. The fixed rods 3 are disposed on the support plate 1, are parallel to each other, and the gap between adjacent fixed rods 3 is larger than the diameter of the movable rods 2; a movable rod 2 is disposed between each adjacent fixed rod 3, and the movable rod 2 is parallel to the fixed rod 3. The drive unit 4 is disposed on the support plate 1, and the movable rods 2 are disposed on the drive unit 4, driving the movable rods 2 to pass through the gaps between the fixed rods 3. The fixing device 5 is disposed on the support plate 1 and is used to fix one end of the strip 7. The tensioning device 6 is disposed on the support plate 1 and is used to tension the other end of the strip 7.

[0043] This embodiment designs a geocell strip 7 folding machine. When it is necessary to fold the strip 7, simply fix one end of the strip 7 with the fixing device 5, pass the other end of the strip 7 between the driven rod 2 and the fixed rod 3, and then tension it using the tensioning device 6 (e.g., Figure 1-2 As shown), the drive unit 4 then drives the moving rod 2 to move, causing the moving rod 2 to pass through the gap between the fixed rods 3, thus folding the strip 7 between the moving rod 2 and the fixed rods 3 in a Z-shape (as shown). Figure 4-5 As shown), finally, the moving rod 2 returns to its original position, and the strip 7 is removed from the fixing device 5 and the tensioning device 6 (as shown). Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the folded strip 7 can be removed from the folding machine. After removal, the new strip 7 to be folded can be folded according to the above steps.

[0044] In one embodiment, both the moving rod 2 and the fixed rod 3 include an inner rod and an outer rod. The inner rod is fixed to the support plate 1 / drive unit 4, and the outer rod is rotatably sleeved outside the inner rod. By setting the inner rod and outer rod structure, and rotatably sleeved outside the inner rod, when the moving rod 2 and the fixed rod 3 fold the strip 7, the outer rod can rotate to reduce the friction between the strip 7 and the moving rod 2 and the fixed rod 3, thereby reducing the wear rate of the moving rod 2 and the fixed rod 3 and improving the service life of the inner rod and the outer rod.

[0045] In one embodiment, the drive unit 4 includes a slide plate 41 and a drive mechanism 42. The slide plate 41 is slidably fitted onto the support plate 1, and the moving rod 2 is disposed on the slide plate 41; the drive mechanism 42 is disposed on the support plate 1, and the drive mechanism 42 drives the slide plate 41 to slide. When it is necessary to fold the strip 7, it is only necessary to control the slide plate 41 to slide to the left by the drive mechanism 42 (e.g., Figure 4 As shown in the diagram, the movable rod 2 on the slide plate 41 moves with the slide plate 41 and passes between the fixed rods 3, thereby folding the strip 7. Specifically, the drive mechanism 42 is a lead screw slider 63 mechanism or a telescopic mechanism (such as a cylinder or hydraulic cylinder).

[0046] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the fixing device 5 includes a first column 51, an upper pressure plate 52, a lower pressure plate 53, and a telescopic power device 54. The first column 51 is fixed to the support plate 1. The upper pressure plate 52 is fixed to the first column 51. The lower pressure plate 53 is slidably fitted onto the first column 51 and is located at the bottom of the upper pressure plate 52. The telescopic power device 54 is disposed on the support plate 1, and its telescopic rod is connected to the lower pressure plate 53.

[0047] When it is necessary to fix the end of the strip 7, simply place the end of the strip 7 between the upper pressure plate 52 and the lower pressure plate 53. By controlling the extension rod of the telescopic power device 54 (which can be a cylinder or hydraulic cylinder, etc.), the lower pressure plate 53 moves upward and presses tightly against the upper pressure plate 52, thereby pressing and fixing the strip 7 between the upper pressure plate 52 and the lower pressure plate 53. Conversely, after folding, the extension rod of the telescopic power device 54 can be retracted to separate the upper pressure plate 52 and the lower pressure plate 53, thus releasing the strip 7.

[0048] In one embodiment, an elastic buffer layer is provided on the clamping surfaces of the upper pressure plate 52 and the lower pressure plate 53. By providing the elastic buffer layer, the upper pressure plate 52 and the lower pressure plate 53 can clamp and fix the strip 7 while utilizing the buffering effect of the elastic buffer layer to avoid damage to the strip 7 due to excessive clamping force, thus protecting the strip 7.

[0049] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the tensioning device 6 includes a mounting frame 61, an upper tensioning roller 62, a slider 63, a lower tensioning roller 64, and an elastic element 65. The mounting frame 61 is fixed to the support plate 1; the upper tensioning roller 62 is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 61; the slider 63 is slidably fitted onto the mounting frame 61; the lower tensioning roller 64 is rotatably mounted on the slider 63; the top of the elastic element 65 is connected to the slider 63, and the bottom of the elastic element 65 is connected to the mounting frame 61.

[0050] The elastic element 65 (which may be a spring, a sheet, or other structure) provides an upward elastic force to the slider 63. The slider 63 applies this force to the lower tension roller 64, which in turn causes the strip 7 to be subjected to the clamping force from the lower tension roller 64 and the upper tension roller 62. In conjunction with the rotatable nature of the lower tension roller 64 and the upper tension roller 62, the tensioning device 6 can provide tension to the strip 7, keeping the strip 7 in a taut state.

[0051] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
