Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model generally relates to the technical field of cargo boxes and containers, and more specifically to a container chassis foaming and gluing tool. Background Technology

[0002] The most widely used foaming process for refrigerated containers is currently sandwich foaming. (Reference) Figure 4 As shown, the refrigerated container 20 may include a top 21, a door 22, side walls 23, and a base frame 24. In the sandwich structure of the base frame 24, the foaming process often adopts a cavity foaming process, which requires PE blocks to separate the cavities. To improve the sealing effect, a two-component polyurethane adhesive needs to be pre-applied on the PE blocks. The adhesive is required to be evenly distributed on the surface of the PE blocks. In the existing technology, the operator wears clean shoe covers and uses a plastic measuring cup to manually and continuously pour the mixed adhesive onto the PE blocks. Then, a special wooden board is used to repeatedly push and pull to spread it evenly. This method is greatly affected by the worker's skill level and is not easy to control. If the amount of adhesive poured is too small, it will affect the sealing and bonding effect. If the amount of adhesive poured is too large, it will flow onto the corrugated sheet of the container, affecting the bonding between the foam and the corrugated sheet.

[0003] Therefore, there is a need to provide a container underframe foaming and gluing tooling to at least partially solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0039] In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be practiced without one or more of these details. In other instances, certain technical features well-known in the art have not been described in order to avoid confusion with the present invention.

[0040] To fully understand this invention, a detailed description will be set forth in the following description. It should be understood that these embodiments are provided so that the disclosure of this invention is thorough and complete, and that the concept of these exemplary embodiments is fully conveyed to those skilled in the art. Obviously, the implementation of embodiments of this invention is not limited to the specific details familiar to those skilled in the art. Preferred embodiments of this invention are described in detail below; however, other embodiments may be available in addition to these detailed descriptions.

[0041] The ordinal numbers such as "first" and "second" used in this invention are merely identifiers and have no other meaning, such as a specific order. Moreover, for example, the term "first component" does not imply the existence of "second component," and the term "second component" does not imply the existence of "first component."

[0042] It should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "inner", "outer" and similar expressions used in this utility model are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to be limiting.

[0043] This utility model discloses a container chassis foaming and gluing fixture.

[0044] Exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0045] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, a container chassis foaming and gluing fixture includes: a glue-holding funnel 1, a conical valve 2, a traction rope 3, and a glue-pushing device 8.

[0046] The upper end of the glue-holding funnel 1 is provided with a material inlet, and the lower end of the glue-holding funnel 1 is provided with a material outlet. The glue is poured into the glue-holding funnel 1 from the material inlet, and under the action of gravity, it can automatically flow out from the material outlet. The material outlet can be a circular hole, and the size of the hole can control the amount of glue applied. The glue-holding capacity of the glue-holding funnel 1 can be about 130% of the amount used in a container.

[0047] The cone valve 2 is installed in the glue funnel 1 and located at the material outlet; the shape of the cone valve 2 is adapted to the material outlet, and under the action of gravity, the cone valve 2 falls and can completely fit against the inner wall of the lower end of the glue funnel 1, thereby sealing the material outlet and preventing glue from flowing out;

[0048] The first end of the traction rope 3 is connected to the cone valve 2 and is used to pull the cone valve 2 to open or close the material outlet. By pulling the cone valve 2 upward by the traction rope 3, the cone valve 2 moves away from the material outlet, which opens the material outlet. The glue can flow out from the gap between the cone valve 2 and the lower inner wall of the glue funnel 1. When the traction rope 3 is not pulled, the cone valve 2 falls under the action of gravity and can close the material outlet.

[0049] The adhesive pushing device 8 is located outside the material outlet. When the container base foaming and coating fixture is moved, the adhesive pushing device 8 is used to spread the adhesive flowing from the material outlet evenly on the item to be coated. The item to be coated is the PE block 10 in the figure.

[0050] The container frame foaming and gluing fixture needs to be moved by hand. During the movement, the glue pushing device 8 moves on the top surface of the PE block 10, and the glue flowing onto the top surface of the PE block 10 can be evenly spread by the glue pushing device 8.

[0051] The container underframe foaming and gluing fixture in this embodiment can quickly and evenly apply glue to the PE block, improving the gluing quality and sealing effect in the container underframe. Moreover, it is simple and convenient to operate, reducing the difficulty and intensity of operation for operators, and can significantly improve work efficiency.

[0052] The traction rope 3 can be made of nylon rope, steel wire rope, etc., and has high strength and wear resistance. The glue-holding funnel 1 is generally conical in shape, and its shape and capacity can be adjusted according to the specific amount of glue to be applied.

[0053] In one implementation, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the container underframe foaming and gluing fixture also includes:

[0054] A rope support rod 9 is installed inside the glue-holding funnel 1. The traction rope 3 passes around the rope support rod 9, which supports the traction rope 3. Supported by the rope support rod 9, the traction rope 3 can bend at an angle greater than 90 degrees. The rope support rod 9 acts like a pulley, supporting the movement of the traction rope 3. The rope support rod 9 is positioned near the upper end of the glue-holding funnel 1 and is fixed to the side wall of the funnel 1, thus not interfering with the pouring of glue from the material inlet into the funnel 1.

[0055] In one implementation, such as Figure 1 As shown, the container underframe foaming and gluing fixture also includes:

[0056] Pull rod 5 is connected to the second end of traction rope 3. Pulling traction rope 3 through pull rod 5 lifts cone valve 2.

[0057] Because the position of the staff holding the container base foaming and gluing tool is far away from the glue funnel 1, it is necessary to pull the traction rope 3 from a relatively long distance. By setting the pull rod 5, the traction rope 3 can be pulled from a long distance.

[0058] In one implementation, such as Figure 1 As shown, the container underframe foaming and gluing fixture also includes:

[0059] The elastic element 4 has its first end connected to the side wall of the glue-holding funnel 1 and its second end connected to the pull rod 5. When the traction rope 3 is not pulled, the elastic element 4 is used to reset the pull rod 5 to prevent the pull rod 5 from obstructing the traction rope 3 from retracting and affecting the descent of the cone valve 2.

[0060] The elastic element 4 and the traction rope 3 are connected to the same end of the pull rod 5. Through the connection between the elastic element 4 and the traction rope 3 and the pull rod 5, the traction rope 3 can be kept basically taut. As long as the traction rope 3 is pulled, the conical valve 2 can be lifted upward without slackening. The elastic element 4 can be a tension spring, with its first end hooked to the side wall of the glue funnel 1 and its second end hooked to the pull rod 5.

[0061] In one implementation, such as Figure 1 As shown, the container underframe foaming and gluing fixture also includes:

[0062] The guide seat 7 has its first end fixedly connected to the side wall of the glue-holding funnel 1, allowing the operator to hold and move the funnel 1. The funnel 1 can be pushed and pulled back and forth. The guide seat 7 is a long rod with a considerable distance, allowing the operator to hold it and lift the funnel 1 from a greater distance. The second end of the guide seat 7 can be fitted with a curved handle for easy gripping by the operator.

[0063] In one implementation, such as Figure 1 As shown, the guide seat 7 is provided with a guide groove, and the pull rod 5 is disposed in the guide groove and can move within the guide groove. The guide groove provides support and limits the pull rod 5, preventing it from falling off the guide seat 7 and affecting the operator's operation.

[0064] In one implementation, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the adhesive pushing device 8 includes two push plates symmetrically arranged on both sides of the material outlet. The push plates are flat, and their combined width matches the width of the top surface of the PE block 10, which is suitable for evenly spreading the adhesive flowing from the material outlet of the adhesive funnel 1 onto the PE block 10. The adhesive pushing device 8 can be welded and fixed to the outer wall of the adhesive funnel 1.

[0065] In one implementation, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the container underframe foaming and gluing fixture also includes:

[0066] A support device 6 is located on the outside of the material outlet, and a glue-pushing device 8 is located within the support device 6. The support device 6 is used to clamp the item to be coated with glue, ensuring that the material outlet of the glue funnel 1 is aligned with the top surface of the PE block 10, allowing the glue to flow accurately onto the top surface of the PE block 10. It also ensures that the glue-pushing device 8 can move along the top surface of the PE block 10, both forward and backward. The support device 6 can be welded and fixed to the outer wall of the glue funnel 1.

[0067] In one implementation, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the support device 6 includes two clamping plates symmetrically arranged on both sides of the material outlet. The clamping plates are provided with multiple bends, so that the support device 6 can be elastically deformed, thereby elastically clamping the PE block 10 and moving along the PE block 10.

[0068] In one embodiment, the glue-holding funnel 1, the conical valve 2, the support device 6, and the glue-pushing device 8 are all made of stainless steel, which can be used for a long time without corrosion, maintaining normal structure and function. Components such as the pull rod 5, the guide seat 7, and the rope support rod 9 can also be made of stainless steel, which can be used for a long time without corrosion.

[0069] The container underframe foaming and gluing fixture of this invention can quickly and evenly apply glue to PE blocks, improving the gluing quality and sealing effect within the container underframe. Furthermore, it is simple and convenient to operate, reducing the difficulty and intensity of operation for personnel and significantly improving work efficiency. The processes and steps described in all the preferred embodiments above are merely examples. Unless adverse effects occur, various processing operations can be performed in a different order than described above. The order of steps in the above process can also be added, combined, or deleted according to actual needs.
