Detailed Implementation

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. The illustrative embodiments and descriptions of the present invention are used to explain the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0022] An elastic band cutting and shaping device, such as Figures 1-8As shown, the assembly includes a frame 1, a support frame 2, a cutting machine 3, a material-pulling robot 4, a linear guide rail 5, a pusher plate 6, and a shaping assembly. The support frame 2 is connected to the lower left side of the frame 1. Four base plates are provided on the lower side of the frame 1 to prevent ground wear. The cutting machine 3 is connected to the upper left front part of the frame 1. The material-pulling robot 4 is connected to the upper middle part of the frame 1. The linear guide rail 5 is connected to the lower left front part of the frame 1. The pusher plate 6 is connected to a slider on the linear guide rail 5 and is slidably connected to the frame 1. A shaping assembly is provided on the frame 1; the shaping assembly includes a placement plate 7, a transmission assembly 8, a slide rail 9, a fixed worktable 10, a pressing assembly 11, a movable worktable 12, an electric push rod 13, a vision detector 14, and a drying oven 15. The placement plate 7 is connected to the upper side of the frame 1, and the transmission assembly 8 is provided on the placement plate 7. The transmission assembly 8 includes a motor, a belt, and drive wheels. Motors are connected to the lower left and right sides of the placement plate 7, and drive wheels are connected to the output shafts of the motors. Belts are wound around the drive wheels. The front and rear sides of the placement plate 7... The upper side of each part is connected to the slide rail 9. The left side of the slide rail 9 is slidably connected to the fixed worktable 10. The fixed worktable 10 is connected to the transmission assembly 8. The movable worktable 12 is slidably connected to the fixed worktable 10. Both the fixed worktable 10 and the movable worktable 12 are provided with the pressing assembly 11. The pressing assembly 11 includes a cylinder and a pressing block. The upper side of both the fixed worktable 10 and the movable worktable 12 is connected to a cylinder. The extension end of each cylinder is connected to a pressing block. The fixed worktable... The left side of the frame 10 is connected to the electric push rod 13, and the telescopic end of the electric push rod 13 is connected to the movable worktable 12. The upper rear side of the frame 1 is connected to two vision detectors 14, which are respectively facing the fixed worktable 10 and the movable worktable 12. The cutting machine 3 is electrically connected to the vision detectors 14, and the electric push rod 13 is electrically connected to the vision detectors 14. The upper middle side of the frame 1 is connected to the drying oven 15, which is located above the placement plate 7.

[0023] As attached Figure 8As shown, the original material strip structure of this utility model is not a single-layer material strip structure, but a structure in which single and double layers appear alternately. The length of the single-layer material strip area is variable, and the original material can be adjusted according to different length requirements. The length of the double-layer material strip area is fixed. The material strip includes two types of stitching: A and B. Stitching A is a single- or double-layer stitching, and stitching B is an ultrasonic welding marking stitching on the double layer. Stitching C is a cutting indicator line that does not exist in the actual material. The K segment formed after cutting along the two C lines is the material strip area that needs further processing. The length of the K segment is smaller than the standard value to facilitate subsequent stretching and shaping. When using this utility model, first place the frame 1... The elastic band is placed in the elastic band cutting and shaping area, and then the elastic band to be cut is placed on the support frame 2. The pulling robot 4 pulls the elastic band into the cutting machine 3. When the vision detector 14 detects the seam on the elastic band, the cutting machine 3 cuts the elastic band. Then, the pulling robot 4 pulls the cut section of elastic band to the push plate 6. After reaching the designated position, the pulling robot 4 releases the elastic band, and then the linear guide 5 is activated, causing the push plate 6 to move backward, pushing the elastic band onto the fixed worktable 10 and the movable worktable 12. Finally, the cylinder in the pressing assembly 11 is activated. The pressure block is moved downwards to fix both ends of the elastic band to the fixed worktable 10 and the movable worktable 12, respectively. Both the fixed worktable 10 and the movable worktable 12 are marked with lines. The vision detector 14 pre-captures the image information of these marks. After the elastic band enters the shaping worktable area, it again captures the seam of the elastic band and compares it with the pre-captured marks. Through information technology processing, the actual deviation can be obtained. Then, the electric actuator 13 is activated to move the movable worktable 12, thereby adjusting the length of the elastic band. After adjustment, the motor in the transmission assembly 8 is activated to drive the belt and transmission... The rotating wheel causes the fixed worktable 10 to move along the slide rail 9, feeding the elastic band into the drying oven 15 for drying and shaping the stretched elastic band. This allows the elastic band to be shaped into the specified size after cutting, reducing material waste and increasing the yield rate. The specific model of the camera of the vision detector 14 can be Keyence VS-L500CX, and the lighting can be CA-DEW10X. The vision control device also includes mounting brackets and other equipment. Since these are existing technologies, the working principle of vision detection will not be elaborated here. Other supporting equipment such as displays and communication systems will also not be described in detail.

[0024] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
