Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a device for transferring semi-finished bow ties, belonging to the field of bow tie machinery technology. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional production of bow ties relies on manual labor, requiring the bow tie body and fishtail ribbon to be processed separately, and then assembled after being manually folded into wavy pleats. Faced with the demands for mass production and customization, achieving full-process automation has become an urgent trend in the industry.

[0003] However, existing automated equipment has a significant drawback in a core aspect of bow tie production: it struggles to simultaneously create the wave-like pleats on both the bow tie body and the fishtail ribbon during their transfer. This step still requires considerable manual intervention, severely hindering improvements in production efficiency and product consistency.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a device for transferring semi-finished bow ties. Utility Model Content

[0005] One objective of this application is to provide a bow tie semi-finished product transfer device, which aims to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. According to the bow tie semi-finished product transfer device of this application, the wave pleating can be completed simultaneously during the transfer of the bow tie body and the fishtail ribbon.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a bow tie semi-finished product transfer device, comprising:

[0007] frame;

[0008] The transfer mechanism includes a first clamping member, which is disposed on the frame;

[0009] The clamping mechanism includes a second clamping member and a transfer assembly, wherein the transfer assembly is disposed on the frame and the second clamping member is disposed on the transfer assembly;

[0010] The first clamping member has two opposing first clamping ends, each with a plurality of spaced-apart wave teeth. The first clamping member is used to clamp the first belt and the second belt and to make them pleat simultaneously. The second clamping member has two opposing second clamping ends, and a stop member is movably disposed between the two second clamping ends. The second clamping member is used to receive the pleated first belt and the second belt and to press them against the sides of the stop member respectively. After the stop member is withdrawn, the two belts further abut against each other while maintaining the pleated shape.

[0011] The transfer device of this application simultaneously completes the wave-like pleating formation, crease deepening, and shape stabilization of the dual-belt bodies during the clamping and transfer process: the first clamping member uses its wave-like teeth to press pleats into the first and second belt bodies in a single clamping action; the second clamping member inserts a stopper between the two before receiving them, so that during clamping, the two belt bodies are pressed against the sides of the stopper to deepen the creases, allowing the belt bodies to stably maintain their pleated shape during subsequent transfer. This process not only improves the product's aesthetics and consistency but also achieves fully automated continuous operation from forming to transfer, significantly reducing manual intervention and greatly improving production efficiency.

[0012] In some embodiments, the transfer mechanism further includes a first drive member disposed on the frame and having its output end connected to the first clamping member, the first drive member being used to drive the first clamping member to move closer to or away from the second clamping member.

[0013] In some embodiments, the second clamping member is fixedly connected to two baffles, and the two baffles are disposed on opposite sides of the stop member;

[0014] The baffle is elastic. The two second clamping ends of the second clamping member move toward each other so that the two baffles abut against the side wall of the stop member, thereby applying a pressing force to the first belt and the second belt. After the stop member is withdrawn, the two second clamping ends further push the two baffles and the pressed first belt and the second belt to move toward each other.

[0015] In some embodiments, the clamping mechanism further includes a second driving member and a third driving member. The second driving member is disposed on the transfer assembly and its output end is connected to the second clamping member. The second driving member is used to drive the second clamping member to move longitudinally. The third driving member is disposed on the second clamping member and its output end is connected to the stop member. The third driving member is used to drive the stop member to move longitudinally.

[0016] In some embodiments, the transfer assembly includes a first module fixed to the frame, a second clamping member disposed on the first module, and the first module being used to drive the second clamping member to move laterally.

[0017] In some embodiments, the system further includes a first feeding mechanism and a second feeding mechanism, wherein the first feeding mechanism is disposed on the frame and is used to move the first belt along the first feeding path, and the second feeding mechanism is disposed on the frame and is used to move the second belt along the second feeding path.

[0018] The first feeding path and the second feeding path have a junction, which is located on one side of the second clamping member. The first clamping member receives and simultaneously clamps the first belt and the second belt that arrive at the junction.

[0019] In some embodiments, the first feeding mechanism includes a second module and a third clamping member, wherein the second module is fixed to the frame and the third clamping member is disposed on the second module;

[0020] The third clamping member is used to clamp both ends of the first belt and keep the first belt in a horizontal position, and the second module is used to drive the third clamping member to move the first belt to the confluence point.

[0021] In some embodiments, the second feeding mechanism includes a fourth driving member and a fourth clamping member, wherein the fourth driving member is disposed on the frame and its output end is connected to the fourth clamping member;

[0022] The fourth clamping member is used to clamp both ends of the second belt and keep the second belt in a horizontal position, and the fourth driving member is used to drive the fourth clamping member to move the second belt to the confluence point.

[0023] In some embodiments, the second feeding mechanism further includes a movable seat and a rotating seat, the movable seat being movably disposed on the frame, the output end of the fourth driving member being connected to the movable seat, the rotating seat being rotatably disposed on the movable seat, and the fourth clamping member being disposed on the rotating seat.

[0024] In some embodiments, the transfer mechanism is disposed on the rotating base.

[0025] The second clamping member is equipped with two elastic baffles. When the second clamping ends move towards each other to clamp the belt, the baffles can be driven to abut against the side wall of the stop member, thereby clamping the belt between the clamping end and the baffles. This structure ensures that there is no direct hard friction between the side wall of the stop member and the belt when the stop member is withdrawn, thus effectively reducing belt deformation or wrinkling damage caused by abrasion, and ensuring the aesthetics and shape consistency of the product in subsequent processing.

[0040] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0041] In the automated production of bow ties, how to synchronously and consistently create wave-like pleats on the bow tie body and fishtail ribbon at the transfer station is a common technical bottleneck faced by current equipment. Most existing devices struggle to achieve synchronous shaping of the two ribbons during the transfer process, still requiring manual assistance to position the creases and maintain the shape. This limits production efficiency and makes it difficult to guarantee product consistency, becoming a key obstacle to improving the level of automation throughout the entire process.

[0042] Please see Figures 1-3 In this embodiment of the application, a bow tie semi-finished product transfer device includes a frame 100, a transfer mechanism 200, and a clamping mechanism 300. The transfer mechanism 200 includes a first clamping member 210 disposed on the frame 100. The clamping mechanism 300 includes a second clamping member 310 and a transfer assembly disposed on the frame 100. The second clamping member 310 is disposed on the transfer assembly. The first clamping member 210 has two opposing first clamping ends 211, each first clamping end 211 having a plurality of spaced-apart wave teeth 211a. The first clamping member 210 is used to clamp the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2 and make them simultaneously form pleats. The second clamping member 310 has two opposing second clamping ends 311, and a stop member 320 is movably disposed between the two second clamping ends 311. The second clamping member 310 is used to receive the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2 that have formed pleats and press them against the sides of the stop member 320 respectively. After the stop member 320 is withdrawn, the two further abut against each other while maintaining the pleat shape.

[0043] The frame 100 serves as an integrated platform, supporting various functional mechanisms. The transfer mechanism 200 includes a first clamping member 210 that simultaneously clamps the first belt T1 and the second belt T2, and uses its wave-shaped teeth 211a to simultaneously press wave-shaped folds into both during the clamping process. (See [link to relevant documentation]). Figures 6-7 In this embodiment, the first belt T1 is a fishtail belt, and the second belt T2 is the main body of a bow tie after folding and ironing. The second clamping member 310 included in the clamping mechanism 300 is used to cooperate with the stop member 320 to deepen the creases of the already wrinkled belt, and the transfer component is used to drive the second clamping member 310 to stably transfer the belt it clamps to the downstream station.

[0044] When the transfer device is working, the first clamping member 210 on the frame 100 first clamps the first belt T1 and the second belt T2 simultaneously through its two first clamping ends 211, and during the clamping process, it uses its wave teeth 211a to act on the upper and lower surfaces of the two to simultaneously press out wave-shaped folds. Next, the second clamping member 310 moves to the position of the first clamping member 210, so that its two second clamping ends 311 are located on both sides of the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2, respectively. At this time, the stop member 320 moves downward and inserts between the two belt bodies. Subsequently, the two second clamping ends 311 move towards each other, pressing the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2 against the corresponding sides of the stop member 320. After that, the first clamping member 210 releases its clamping, the stop member 320 retracts upward, and the two second clamping ends 311 move towards each other further, causing the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2 to abut against each other and maintain this shape. The first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2 are then transferred to the next work station by means of the transfer assembly.

[0045] During a single clamping and transfer process, the transfer device can simultaneously shape, reinforce creases, and fix the shape of the first belt T1 and the second belt T2. Specifically, the first clamping member 210 uses its wave tooth 211a structure to simultaneously shape the two belts in one clamping action. Before receiving the belts, the second clamping member 310 is first inserted between the two belts by the stop member 320, and then the two belts are pressed together on both sides of the stop member 320, thereby deepening the creases and ensuring the stability of their shape during subsequent transfer. This integrated process ensures the consistency of the finished product's appearance while realizing continuous automated operation from shaping to transfer, effectively improving production cycle time and overall efficiency.

[0046] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 Each first clamping end 211 of the first clamping member 210 is provided with two first clamping segments 211b arranged at intervals along the length of the belt body. Each first clamping segment 211b is provided with wavy teeth 211a at intervals along its extension direction. The symmetrical arrangement of the two first clamping segments 211b can keep the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2 in a horizontal position when the first clamping member 210 clamps the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2, thereby providing a stable positional basis for the subsequent clamping action of the second clamping member 310.

[0047] The two first clamping ends 211 are arranged vertically opposite each other. The first clamping end 211 located on the lower side has a protrusion 211c between its wavy teeth 211a. The protrusion 211c is used to cooperate with the wavy teeth 211a to support the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2 during the clamping process, ensuring that the belt body is in a stable state during the wavy pleating process, reducing the impact of the belt body sagging due to its own weight on the pleating process, and helping to improve the appearance quality of the product.

[0048] The first clamping member 210 and the second clamping member 310 can be pneumatic grippers or other clamping elements with equivalent clamping functions.

[0049] The first belt T1 and the second belt T2 can be manually fed or transferred to the first clamping member 210 via a feeding mechanism.

[0050] The stop 320 can be constructed in a cuboid shape.

[0051] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1-2 and Figures 4-5 In addition to the combination of the transfer mechanism 200, the transfer mechanism 200 also includes a first drive member 220, which is disposed on the frame 100 and whose output end is connected to the first clamping member 210. The first drive member 220 is used to drive the first clamping member 210 to move closer to or away from the second clamping member 310.

[0052] When it is necessary to clamp the first belt T1 and the second belt T2, the first driving member 220 drives the first clamping member 210 to move to the preset station, so that its two first clamping ends 211 perform clamping actions synchronously. During the clamping process, its wave teeth 211a make the two belts form wrinkles synchronously. After the wrinkle formation is completed, the second clamping member 310 moves to the corresponding position to pick up the two belts synchronously.

[0053] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 The frame 100 is provided with a first slide rail 230 and a first slider 231 that slide against each other. The first clamping member 210 is mounted on the first slider 231 via a fixed base 240. The output end of the first driving member 220 is connected to the first slider 231 to drive the first slider 231 to move along the first slide rail 230, thereby enabling the first clamping member 210 to perform a moving operation.

[0054] The first driving element 220 can be a cylinder or other driving element with equivalent linear output function, and the moving distance of the first clamping element 210 is controlled by the effective stroke of the first driving element 220.

[0055] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 The second clamping member 310 is fixedly connected to two baffles 330, which are disposed on opposite sides of the stop member 320. The baffles 330 are elastic. The two second clamping ends 311 of the second clamping member 310 move toward each other, causing the two baffles 330 to abut against the side wall of the stop member 320, thereby applying a pressing force to the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2. After the stop member 320 is withdrawn, the two second clamping ends 311 further push the two baffles 330 and the pressed first belt body T1 and second belt body T2 to move toward each other.

[0056] When the two second clamping ends 311 of the second clamping member 310 move toward each other, they can push the corresponding baffles 330 respectively. Since the stop member 320 is located between the two baffles 330, the baffles 330 will abut against the side wall of the stop member 320, so that the second clamping ends 311 can apply stable resistance pressure to the first belt T1 and the second belt T2 through the baffles 330. After the stop member 320 is withdrawn, the baffles 330 lose support. The second clamping ends 311 continue to move toward each other and push the baffles 330 to undergo elastic deformation, thereby driving the first belt T1 and the second belt T2 to move toward each other until the two baffles 330 contact each other.

[0057] By configuring elastic baffles 330 on both sides of the stop member 320, when the two second clamping ends 311 of the second clamping member 310 move towards each other to perform clamping, the corresponding baffles 330 can be driven to press tightly against the side wall of the stop member 320, so that the belt is constrained between the second clamping ends 311 and the baffles 330. This arrangement makes it difficult for direct friction to occur between the side wall of the stop member 320 and the belt during the withdrawal process, thereby effectively reducing belt scratching deformation or wrinkled structural defects caused by the withdrawal action, and ensuring the appearance integrity and shape stability of the product in subsequent processing stages.

[0058] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 The baffle 330 can be constructed as a Z-shaped piece and fixed to the second clamping member 310 by the baffle clip 331.

[0059] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 The clamping mechanism 300 also includes a second driving member 340 and a third driving member 350. The second driving member 340 is disposed on the transfer assembly and its output end is connected to the second clamping member 310. The second driving member 340 is used to drive the second clamping member 310 to move longitudinally. The third driving member 350 is disposed on the second clamping member 310 and its output end is connected to the stop member 320. The third driving member 350 is used to drive the stop member 320 to move longitudinally.

[0060] During the process of receiving the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2, the second driving member 340 first drives the second clamping member 310 to move downward, so that its second clamping end 311 reaches the work position where the belt body can be received. Then, the third driving member 350 drives the stop member 320 to move downward, so that it is inserted between the two belt bodies that have formed folds. Next, the second clamping member 310 performs a clamping action, working together with the stop member 320 to strengthen and fix the formed folds. After the clamping is completed, the second driving member 340 drives the second clamping member 310 to move upward, lifting the two belt bodies upward, and the third driving member 350 drives the stop member 320 to return to the initial position, thereby completing the transfer of the belt bodies.

[0061] The independent setup of the second drive unit 340 and the third drive unit 350 enables precise connection between the crease reinforcement and belt transfer processes, effectively reducing motion interference and timing conflicts that may be caused by a single drive. This not only improves the motion reliability and response accuracy of each mechanism, but also enhances the device's adaptability to processing belts of different specifications, thereby significantly improving the overall automation level of the equipment while ensuring processing quality.

[0062] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 The third drive unit 350 is mounted above the second clamping unit 310 via the mounting base 351.

[0063] The second drive member 340 and the third drive member 350 can be cylinders or other drive elements with equivalent linear output function. The moving distance of the second clamping member 310 is controlled by the effective stroke of the second drive member 340, and the moving distance of the stop member 320 is controlled by the effective stroke of the third drive member 350.

[0064] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1-2 The combination of the transfer components includes a first module 360, which is fixed to the frame 100, and a second clamping member 310 disposed on the first module 360. The first module 360 ​​is used to drive the second clamping member 310 to move laterally.

[0065] After the second clamping member 310 completes the clamping and crease reinforcement of the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2, it is driven by the first module 360 ​​mounted on the frame 100 to stably transfer the belt body to the downstream station. The first module 360 ​​enables automated and continuous transfer of the belt body between the forming station and the subsequent processing station, reducing efficiency losses and quality fluctuations caused by manual handling or secondary positioning. The transfer process is smooth and controllable, ensuring the maintenance of the crease shape and positional accuracy of the belt body during transfer, providing a reliable alignment basis for subsequent processes, thereby improving the overall continuity and production efficiency of the production line.

[0066] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 The first module 360 ​​is fixed to the frame 100 by the stand 361.

[0067] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figures 4-5The combination also includes a first feeding mechanism 400 and a second feeding mechanism 500. The first feeding mechanism 400 is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to move the first belt T1 along the first feeding path. The second feeding mechanism 500 is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to move the second belt T2 along the second feeding path. The first feeding path and the second feeding path have a confluence point located on one side of the second clamping member 310. The first clamping member 210 receives and simultaneously clamps the first belt T1 and the second belt T2 that arrive at the confluence point.

[0068] After the transfer device is started, the first feeding mechanism 400 transfers the processed first belt T1 along the first feeding path to the confluence point, and the second feeding mechanism 500 transfers the processed second belt T2 along the second feeding path to the confluence point. After the first belt T1 and the second belt T2 are both in place at the confluence point, the first clamping member 210 receives both of them simultaneously, and forms wavy folds on the two belts simultaneously through its wave teeth 211a during the clamping process. Then, the second clamping member 310 moves to the station, receives the two belts with folds formed from the first clamping member 210, and continues to perform the crease strengthening and transfer process.

[0069] By setting up independent first feeding mechanism 400 and second feeding mechanism 500, the first belt T1 and the second belt T2 are synchronously and accurately conveyed along their respective feeding paths, ensuring that they can meet at the designated workstation on time. This dual-path feeding design not only effectively reduces the material waiting, misalignment, and asynchronous rhythm problems that may exist in traditional single-path or manual feeding, but also significantly improves the automation and reliability of the feeding process, and provides a stable material supply foundation for subsequent continuous corrugated forming and transfer.

[0070] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 The first feeding mechanism 400 includes a second module 410 and a third clamping member 420. The second module 410 is fixed to the frame 100, and the third clamping member 420 is disposed on the second module 410. The third clamping member 420 is used to clamp both ends of the first belt body T1 and keep the first belt body T1 in a horizontal position. The second module 410 is used to drive the third clamping member 420 to move the first belt body T1 to the confluence point.

[0071] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 5Two third clamping members 420 are provided on the second module 410. The first belt body T1 is pre-formed by the first forming device (not shown in the figure) located on the frame 100. The two third clamping members 420 move to the discharge station of the first forming device under the drive of the second module 410, and clamp the two ends of the first belt body T1 respectively to keep it in a horizontal position. After clamping, the second module 410 drives the two third clamping members 420 to move synchronously, thereby smoothly transferring the first belt body T1 in a horizontal position to the confluence point.

[0072] The first forming device is one of the remaining components of the equipment, and its structure will not be described in detail in this article.

[0073] By using a third clamping component 420 in conjunction with the second module 410, synchronous clamping and horizontal posture maintenance of both ends of the first belt T1 are achieved. This structure not only ensures the stability of the belt's shape and positional accuracy during transport, but also enables continuous and smooth transport from the forming station to the merging point with the help of the second module 410. This avoids efficiency losses and posture deformation caused by manual handling, and provides a precise and stable material supply for subsequent pleating processes, effectively improving the automation level of the feeding process and the overall production continuity.

[0074] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 The clamping directions of the two third clamping members 420 are perpendicular to each other. Specifically, one of the third clamping members 420 is parallel to the length direction of the first belt T1, while the other is perpendicular to the length direction of the first belt T1. The third clamping member 420, whose clamping direction is perpendicular to the length direction of the first belt T1, is slidably mounted on the second module 410 via the second slide rail 430 and the second slider 431, and is driven by the fifth driving member 440 to move along the second slide rail 430. Its position can be adjusted during operation, effectively avoiding the material discharge action of the first forming device, reducing interference, and further improving the layout flexibility of the equipment and optimizing space utilization.

[0075] The fifth drive element 440 can be a cylinder or other drive element with equivalent linear output function. The moving distance of the third clamping element 420, whose clamping direction is perpendicular to the length direction of the first belt body T1, is controlled by the effective stroke of the fifth drive element 440.

[0076] In some embodiments, the second feeding mechanism 500 includes a fourth driving member 510 and a fourth clamping member 520. The fourth driving member 510 is disposed on the frame 100 and its output end is connected to the fourth clamping member 520. The fourth clamping member 520 is used to clamp both ends of the second belt T2 and keep the second belt T2 in a horizontal position. The fourth driving member 510 is used to drive the fourth clamping member 520 to move the second belt T2 to the confluence point.

[0077] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 There are two fourth clamping members 520. The output end of the fourth driving member 510 is connected to the two fourth clamping members 520. The second belt body T2 is pre-formed by the second forming device (not shown in the figure) on the frame 100. The two fourth clamping members 520 move to the discharge station of the second forming device under the drive of the fourth driving member 510, and clamp the two ends of the second belt body T2 respectively to keep it in a horizontal position. After clamping, the fourth driving member 510 drives the two fourth clamping members 520 to move synchronously, thereby smoothly transferring the second belt body T2 in a horizontal position to the confluence point.

[0078] The second forming device is one of the remaining components of the equipment, and its structure will not be described in detail in this article.

[0079] Similarly, by setting up a fourth clamping component 520 to work in conjunction with the fourth driving component 510, synchronous clamping and horizontal posture maintenance of both ends of the second belt T2 are achieved. This structure not only ensures the shape stability and positional accuracy of the belt during the transfer process, but also achieves continuous and smooth transfer from the forming station to the confluence point with the help of the fourth driving component 510. It also provides a precise and stable material supply for the subsequent pleating forming process, effectively improving the automation level of the feeding process and the overall production continuity.

[0080] The fourth drive element 510 can be a cylinder or other drive element with equivalent linear output function, and the moving distance of the fourth clamping element 520 is controlled by the effective stroke of the fourth drive element 510.

[0081] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 4-5 The second feeding mechanism 500 also includes a movable seat 530 and a rotating seat 540. The movable seat 530 is movably mounted on the frame 100. The output end of the fourth driving member 510 is connected to the movable seat 530. The rotating seat 540 is rotatably mounted on the movable seat 530. The fourth clamping member 520 is mounted on the rotating seat 540.

[0082] When the second belt T2 is clamped into the second forming device, the fourth driving member 510 drives the moving seat 530 to move forward in a straight line, so that the fourth clamping member 520 reaches the clamping position and clamps the second belt T2. After clamping is completed, the fourth driving member 510 drives the moving seat 530 to move the fourth clamping member 520 back. Then the rotating seat 540 rotates on the moving seat 530. Since the fourth clamping member 520 is installed on the rotating seat 540, it rotates synchronously with the rotating seat 540, so that the second belt T2 is adjusted to a position parallel to the first belt T1, so that the first clamping member 210 can simultaneously clamp and pleat the first belt T1 and the second belt T2.

[0083] By incorporating a rotatable rotating seat 540 and a fourth clamping member 520 on the movable seat 530, the posture of the second belt T2 after clamping is actively adjusted. The rotation function of the rotating seat 540 allows the second belt T2 to be adjusted to a direction parallel to the first belt T1, ensuring precise alignment and convergence of the two at the first clamping member 210. This design effectively improves the alignment problem caused by differences in the initial posture or layout of the material, significantly enhances clamping synchronization and forming quality, and strengthens the adaptability of the equipment to different production line layouts.

[0084] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 The frame 100 is provided with a third slide rail 550 and a third slider 551 that slide against each other. The output end of the fourth drive member 510 is connected to the movable seat 530 mounted on the third slider 551 to drive the third slider 551 to move along the third slide rail 550, thereby causing the fourth clamping member 520 to perform a moving operation.

[0085] The rotating seat 540 is driven by a drive unit consisting of a motor 560 and a reducer 561. Using a combination of motor 560 and reducer 561 to drive the rotating seat 540 provides stable and controllable rotational power and precise angular positioning. The reducer 561 effectively increases the output torque, ensuring the smooth movement of the rotating seat 540. Simultaneously, the motor 560 drive facilitates flexible adjustment of rotational speed and angle.

[0086] In addition, please see Figure 4 A sensor 541 is fixed on the rotating seat 540. The sensor 541 can be designed as a sheet. A slotted switch 531 is correspondingly provided on the movable seat 530. The slotted switch 531 determines whether the rotating seat 540 has accurately returned to its original position by detecting the position of the sensor 541. By setting the slotted switch 531 and the sensor 541, real-time, non-contact detection of the return state of the rotating seat 540 is achieved, ensuring that the rotating seat 540 accurately resets after each action, thereby improving the continuity and stability of equipment operation and reducing production errors caused by positional deviations.

[0087] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figures 4-5 The transfer mechanism 200 is located on the rotating seat 540.

[0088] When the rotating base 540 rotates to adjust the posture of the second belt T2, the transfer mechanism 200 mounted on it rotates synchronously, causing the position of the first clamping member 210 to adjust accordingly. Once the second belt T2 and the first belt T1 are parallel, the first clamping member 210 can directly clamp both belts simultaneously from one side of the second belt T2. The design of integrating the transfer mechanism 200 into the rotating base 540 ensures that the first clamping member 210 maintains the optimal clamping angle at all times, thereby ensuring precise alignment of the two belts after clamping and further enhancing the equipment's adaptability to different production line configurations.

[0089] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 The first slide rail 230 and the first slider 231 are disposed on the rotating seat 540. The first clamping member 210 is installed on the first slider 231 through the fixing seat 240. The first driving member 220 is fixed to the rotating seat 540 and drives the first slider 231 to move along the first slide rail 230.

[0090] The rotating base 540 is equipped with a first stop 232 for limiting the stroke of the first slider 231, and the frame 100 is equipped with a second stop 552 for limiting the stroke of the third slider 551. The design of the stops effectively reduces overshoot and collision, enhancing the reliability and durability of the equipment during continuous operation.

[0091] As an exemplary first embodiment, when the transfer device is working, the first clamping member 210 provided on the frame 100 first clamps the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2 simultaneously through its two first clamping ends 211, and during the clamping process, it uses its wave teeth 211a to act on the upper and lower surfaces of the two to simultaneously press out wave-shaped folds. Next, the second clamping member 310 moves to the position of the first clamping member 210, so that its two second clamping ends 311 are located on both sides of the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2, respectively. At this time, the stop member 320 moves downward and inserts between the two belt bodies. Subsequently, the two second clamping ends 311 move towards each other, pressing the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2 against the corresponding sides of the stop member 320. After that, the first clamping member 210 releases its clamping, the stop member 320 retracts upward, and the two second clamping ends 311 move towards each other further, causing the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2 to abut against each other and maintain this shape. The first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2 are then transferred to the next work station by means of the transfer assembly.

[0092] As an exemplary second implementation, when the transfer device is working, the first clamping member 210 provided on the frame 100 first clamps the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2 simultaneously through its two first clamping ends 211, and during the clamping process, it uses its wave teeth 211a to act on the upper and lower surfaces of the two to simultaneously press out wave-shaped folds. Next, the second clamping member 310 moves to the position of the first clamping member 210, so that its two second clamping ends 311 are located on both sides of the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2, respectively. At this time, the stop member 320 moves downward and inserts between the two belt bodies. Subsequently, the two second clamping ends 311 move towards each other, pressing the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2 against the corresponding sides of the stop member 320. After that, the first clamping member 210 releases its clamping, the stop member 320 retracts upward, and the two second clamping ends 311 move towards each other further, causing the first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2 to abut against each other and maintain this shape. The first belt body T1 and the second belt body T2 are then transferred to the next work station by means of the transfer assembly.

[0093] The second clamping member 310 is fixedly connected to two baffles 330, which are disposed on opposite sides of the stop member 320. When the two second clamping ends 311 of the second clamping member 310 move toward each other, they can push the corresponding baffles 330. Since the stop member 320 is located between the two baffles 330, the baffles 330 will abut against the side wall of the stop member 320, so that the second clamping ends 311 can apply stable pressure to the first belt T1 and the second belt T2 through the baffles 330. After the stop member 320 is withdrawn, the baffles 330 lose their support. The second clamping ends 311 continue to move toward each other, which will push the baffles 330 to undergo elastic deformation, thereby driving the first belt T1 and the second belt T2 to move toward each other until the two baffles 330 contact each other.
