[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0022] Please see Figures 1-7 This utility model provides a technical solution: a plush toy shaping device, including a device shell 1, a belt conveyor 2 fixedly installed inside the device shell 1, an installation frame 3 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the device shell 1, a shaping component 4 installed on the installation frame 3, an auxiliary component 6 installed inside the device shell 1, and a guide component 7 installed on the belt conveyor 2.

[0023] The shaping component 4 includes a spraying device 401, a hot air blower 402, and an electric slide rail 403. The electric slide rail 403 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the mounting bracket 3. A cross plate 404 is fixedly installed on the movable end of the electric slide rail 403. A hollow tube 405 is rotatably connected to the cross plate 404 via a bearing. The hollow tubes 405 are symmetrically distributed about the center of the cross plate 404. The hollow tube 405 on the left is connected to the output end of the hot air blower 402 via a rotary joint 408, and the hollow tube 405 on the right is connected to the output end of the spraying device 401 via a rotary joint 408. A driving component 409 is installed on the cross plate 404 and is connected to the hollow tube 405. An upper nozzle 406 is connected to the bottom end of the hollow tube 405. A side nozzle 407 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the upper nozzle 406, and the interior of the side nozzle 407 is connected to the upper nozzle 406. The internal connection of 6 is achieved by spraying the toy through the spraying device 401. The spray enters the hollow tube 405 on the right side and then enters the upper spray head 406 and the side spray head 407, thus spraying the toy from the top and sides to wet the plush. At the same time, the drive component 409 drives the hollow tube 405 to rotate, which in turn drives the upper spray head 406 to rotate. The rotation of the upper spray head 406 drives the side spray head 407 to rotate, so that the spray can go around the toy once or several times. Meanwhile, the electric slide rail 403 drives the cross plate 404 to move, which in turn drives the hollow tube 405 to move synchronously with the toy to avoid the side spray head 407 from colliding with the toy. After wetting is completed, the upper spray head 406 and the side spray head 407 on the left side dry the toy. The entire process does not require stopping the belt conveyor 2, which can ensure that the toy is fully wetted and dried, thus ensuring the shaping effect.

[0024] An inverted horn 5 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the upper nozzle 406. The narrower end of the inverted horn 5 faces upward and is located directly below the hollow tube 405. The top opening of the inverted horn 5 is smaller than the inner diameter of the hollow tube 405. The inverted horn 5 is set to divert the fluid entering the upper nozzle 406 from the hollow tube 405, so that a part of the fluid enters the inverted horn 5 and is ejected from the nozzle at the bottom of the upper nozzle 406, while the other part flows into the side nozzle 407 and is then ejected from the nozzle on the side nozzle 407.

[0025] The drive component 409 includes a servo motor 4091, which is fixedly mounted on the cross plate 404. A rotating shaft 4092 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the servo motor 4091. A gear 4093 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 4092. Gear 4093 meshes with a gear 4094. Gear 4094 is fixedly mounted on the hollow tube 405. The servo motor 4091 drives the rotating shaft 4092 to rotate, which in turn drives the gear 4093 to rotate. The rotation of gear 4093 drives the rotation of gear 4094, which in turn drives the hollow tube 405 to rotate.

[0026] The auxiliary components 6 are provided in two sets, and each set of auxiliary components 6 includes two symmetrically arranged cylinders 601. The extended end of the cylinder 601 is fixedly installed with a mounting base 602. A soft brush 603 is snapped into the mounting base 602. The position of the mounting base 602 is adjusted by the cylinder 601, thereby adjusting the position of the soft brush 603. This allows the toy to be brushed once by the soft brush 603 when it passes by. When the toy passes through the first set of auxiliary components 6, it will be rotated at a certain angle due to the resistance of the soft brush 603. Then, the second set of auxiliary components 6 can brush the areas that the first set has not brushed, further ensuring the shaping effect.

[0027] The guide assembly 7 includes two mounting plates 702 arranged symmetrically front and rear. A connecting plate 701 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the mounting plate 702. The connecting plate 701 is fixedly connected to the belt conveyor 2 by screws. A slide rod 704 is slidably arranged inside the mounting plate 702. An arc-shaped guide plate 703 is fixedly mounted on one end of the slide rod 704 facing the inside of the equipment housing 1. The arc-shaped guide plate 703 drives the outer wall to rotate and is connected to a threaded rod 705 through a bearing. The threaded rod 705 is threadedly connected to the mounting plate 702. The mounting plate 702 is connected to the belt conveyor 2 through the connecting plate 701. The arc-shaped guide plate 703 guides the toy so that the toy is located as close as possible to the center of the belt conveyor 2. The position of the arc-shaped guide plate 703 can be adjusted by rotating the threaded rod 705, thereby guiding toys of different sizes.

[0028] The conveyor belt inside the belt conveyor 2 has through holes. Inside the belt conveyor 2, there are blower head 8 and spray head 9. Blower head 8 is located to the left of spray head 9. Blower head 8 and spray head 9 are located directly below shaping component 4. Blower head 8 and spray head 9 are set up to spray and dry from the bottom of the toy to shape the plush at the bottom of the toy.

[0029] Working principle: During use, the plush toy is placed on the belt conveyor 2 at time intervals. The belt conveyor 2 transports the toy from right to left. After the toy reaches the area corresponding to the shaping component 4, the electric slide rail 403 first drives the cross plate 404 to move to the left, so that the upper spray head 406 moves at the same speed as the toy. Then, the spraying device 401 is turned on, so that the spray is sprayed from the upper spray head 406 and the side spray head 407 to wet the toy. At the same time, the drive component 409 drives the hollow tube 405 to rotate, so that the side spray head 407 at the bottom of the upper spray head 406 makes a circular motion, circling the toy once or twice. After several weeks of thorough wetting, the electric slide rail 403 slows down, moving the toy to the left side below the upper spray head 406. At this point, the electric slide rail 403 speeds up to match the belt conveyor 2, turning on the hot air blower 402 to generate hot air. The hot air enters the upper spray head 406 through the hollow tube 405 and blows air onto the toy from the upper spray head 406 and the side spray head 407. At the same time, the side spray head 407 rotates, blowing air all around the toy to ensure the drying effect and smooth the toy's plush. When the toy passes the auxiliary component 6, the soft brush 603 inside the auxiliary component 6 brushes the toy, thus reshaping it a second time.

[0030] Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
