Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glove production technology, and in particular to an automatic glove blank alignment and alignment device and a glove blank conveying mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In the existing automatic blank-turning equipment of the dipped work gloves production line, during the blank-turning process, the glove blank is picked up by the rough blank-taking device and placed on the flip plate. The flip plate is tilted at a certain angle under the action of power, so that the glove blank slides to the tilted side by its own gravity inertia. After being aligned by the guide plate, it stops at the extended blocking part, thus realizing the blank-turning action.

[0003] Because the guide plate opening distance is fixed, it can only accommodate one glove blank size. If the glove blank is too large, it will get stuck at the guide plate opening during blanking, affecting the blanking action of the next unit. When the glove blank's neck width is smaller than the guide plate opening, due to the glove blank's own softness, the glove neck will not be fully located in the center of the guide opening during blanking, affecting the neatness of the blank and reducing the gripping rate of the next gripping action, or even failing to grip the glove blank. As a result, the glove blank cannot be fitted, and the missing glove mold must be manually replaced with the glove blank before proceeding to the next process. This undoubtedly greatly increases the labor intensity of employees. The development of automatic blank fitting equipment is constrained by this technical bottleneck, which prevents the improvement of automation level. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

The singular forms “a,” “the,” and “the” used in the embodiments of this application and the appended claims are also intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0038] It should be noted that the directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" described in the embodiments of this application are used to describe the angles shown in the accompanying drawings and should not be construed as limiting the embodiments of this application. Furthermore, in the context, it should also be understood that when it is mentioned that an element is formed "upper" or "lower" of another element, it can not only be formed directly "upper" or "lower" of the other element, but also indirectly "upper" or "lower" of the other element through an intermediate element.

[0039] Figure 1 This schematic diagram illustrates the structure of an automatic glove blank alignment device according to one embodiment of the present invention from a first-view perspective. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the structure of the aligning device according to one embodiment of the present invention from a second perspective. Figure 3 This schematic diagram illustrates the structure of the first driving structure according to one embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 1-3 As shown, the present invention provides an automatic alignment and straightening device for glove blanks, comprising:

[0040] The sorting platform 20 is located on the top of the frame 10 and is used to receive and sort glove blanks.

[0041] The guide structure 30 is set on the sorting platform 20. The guide structure 30 has a space interval, which is used to guide the sliding direction of the glove blank.

[0042] The first drive structure 40 is connected to the guide structure 30 in a transmission manner. The first drive structure 40 is used to adjust the size of the interval space to match glove blanks of different sizes.

[0043] Specifically, the frame 10 is a square frame formed by welding multiple square tubes together. A rotating column 101 is set on the upper part of the frame 10. The rotating column 101 passes through the frame 10 along the length of the frame 10 and is rotatably connected to the frame 10. When the sorting platform 20 is located at the top of the frame 10, it is installed on the rotating column 101. The sorting platform 20 can rotate around the rotating column 101 as a fulcrum to tilt the sorting platform 20, thereby causing the glove blank on the sorting platform 20 to slide under the action of gravity.

[0044] Multiple sets of guide structures 30 can be set on the sorting platform 20. The multiple sets of guide structures 30 are spaced apart and arranged side by side, so that the sorting platform 20 can sort multiple glove blanks at the same time. When the glove blank slides, it enters the space between each set of guide structures 30, and is then guided and limited by the guide structures 30, so that the multiple glove blanks on the sorting platform 20 are neatly arranged, which is convenient for subsequent gripping devices to grip.

[0045] The device is also equipped with a first drive structure 40 that is connected to the guide structure 30. The first drive structure 40 can control the size of the space between each group of guide structures 30, thereby enabling the sorting of glove blanks of different sizes and improving the overall applicability of the device.

[0046] Furthermore, Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the structure of a guide structure according to one embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5 This schematic diagram illustrates the structure of an auxiliary guide plate according to one embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 4 , 5 As shown:

[0047] like Figure 4 As shown, in the first embodiment of this utility model, the guide structure 30 is set as a long strip plate, which can be controlled by the first drive structure 40 to move left and right, thereby adjusting the spacing between multiple guide structures 30, and thus matching the glove blanks of different sizes to slide over.

[0048] like Figure 5 As shown, in the second embodiment of this utility model, an auxiliary guide plate 70 is also provided, which is correspondingly provided with the guide structure 30. The two are separately provided, and the length of the auxiliary guide plate 70 is greater than that of the guide structure 30.

[0049] The auxiliary guide plate 70 is set on the sorting platform 20 and is fixedly connected to the sorting platform 20. When the glove blank slides, it first contacts the auxiliary guide plate 70 and is guided by the auxiliary guide plate 70, and then contacts the guide structure 30 and is guided by the guide structure 30. It can be understood that the auxiliary guide plate 70 guides the palm part of the glove blank, and the guide structure 30 guides the wrist part of the glove blank.

[0050] Meanwhile, the auxiliary guide plate 70 can also be movably connected to the sorting platform 20. Controlled by a third drive structure, the auxiliary guide plate 70 can move left and right, thereby adjusting the spacing between multiple auxiliary guide plates 70 to facilitate the sliding of glove blanks of different sizes. Furthermore, a second drive structure 50 is also provided on the frame 10. The second drive structure 50 is connected to the sorting platform 20 and is used to control the rotation of the sorting platform 20, thereby tilting it to allow the glove blanks to slide.

[0051] Specifically, the second drive structure 50 is connected to the bottom of one side of the sorting platform 20 along its length. The second drive structure 50 controls the sorting platform 20 to rise or fall on this side, thereby causing the sorting platform 20 to rotate around the rotating column 101 as the midpoint, thus realizing the sorting operation of the glove blank.

[0052] Furthermore, each guide structure 30 includes a first guide plate 301 and a second guide plate 302, with the space between the first guide plate 301 and the second guide plate 302.

[0053] Specifically, the lengths of the first guide plate 301 and the second guide plate 302 range from 5 to 50 cm.

[0054] The first drive structure 40 includes a first guide rail 401, which is connected to a first guide plate 301. The first guide rail 401 is used to control the horizontal movement of multiple first guide plates 301 located on the same side, thereby adjusting the size of the gap between the first guide plate 301 and the second guide plate 302, so as to accommodate glove blanks of different sizes sliding over.

[0055] Meanwhile, the first drive structure 40 also includes a second guide rail 402, which is connected to the second guide plate 302 in a transmission manner. The second guide rail 402 is used to control the horizontal movement of multiple second guide plates 302 located on the same side, thereby adjusting the size of the gap between the first guide plate 301 and the second guide plate 302, so as to accommodate glove blanks of different sizes sliding over.

[0056] Of course, in this solution, only one of the first guide rail 401 and the second guide rail 402 can be set. The size of the space between the two can be adjusted by adjusting the first guide plate 301 or the second guide plate 302 separately. Alternatively, they can be set at the same time. The size of the space can be adjusted by adjusting the first guide plate 301 and the second guide plate 302 at the same time, or by selectively adjusting the movement of the first guide plate 301 or the second guide plate 302 during a single control.

[0057] Furthermore, along the sliding direction of the glove blank, the gap between the first guide plate 301 and the second guide plate 302 in each group gradually decreases to gather the glove blank.

[0058] Specifically, along the sliding direction of the glove blank, the first guide plate 301 and the second guide plate 302 gradually tilt towards each other from the upstream end to the downstream end, with the tilt angle ranging from 0° to 45°, so that the first guide plate 301 and the second guide plate 302 are arranged in a figure-eight shape, forming a gradually converging channel, gradually guiding and positioning the sliding direction of the glove blank, so that multiple glove blanks are neatly arranged, which is convenient for subsequent gripping devices to grasp.

[0059] Furthermore, a blocking structure 60 is provided on one side edge of the sorting platform 20. The blocking structure 60 is located close to the guide structure 30, and the top of the blocking structure 60 is higher than the plane of the sorting platform 20. When the glove blank continues to move after being guided along the guide structure 30, it will slide out of the sorting platform 20. However, the blocking structure 60 can prevent the glove blank from sliding out.

[0060] The blocking structure 60 can be fixedly connected to the edge of the sorting platform 20 or it can be set to be movable. When the blocking structure 60 is fixedly connected to the sorting platform 20, the top of the blocking structure 60 is always higher than the plane of the sorting platform 20, which can limit the movement of the glove blank. When it is necessary to clean the residual glove blank on the sorting platform 20, the sorting platform 20 can be reversed to make the residual glove blank slide out of the sorting platform 20 in the opposite direction.

[0061] When the blocking structure 60 is movably connected to the sorting platform 20, the blocking structure 60 can move repeatedly in the vertical direction under the control of the motor. When it is necessary to block the glove blank, the blocking structure 60 is controlled to rise so that its top is higher than the plane of the sorting platform 20 to block the sliding glove blank. When it is necessary to clean the remaining glove blank, the blocking structure 60 is controlled to fall so that its top is lower than or equal to the plane of the sorting platform 20, and the sorting platform 20 is controlled to tilt further so that the glove blank continues to slide out of the sorting platform 20 to achieve cleaning.

[0062] Furthermore, Figure 6 This schematic diagram illustrates the structure of the second drive structure according to one embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 6As shown:

[0063] The second drive structure 50 includes a power source 501 and a connecting block 502;

[0064] The connecting block 502 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sorting platform 20, and the power source 501 is connected to the connecting block 502 for transmission. The power source 501 is used to control the tilt of the sorting platform 20 through the connecting block 502.

[0065] The power source 501 can be configured as one of pneumatic drive, hydraulic drive or electric motor drive to realize the control of the sorting platform 20;

[0066] When the power source 501 is pneumatically driven or hydraulically driven, a connecting rod 503 is provided between the connecting block 502 and the power source 501. The two ends of the connecting rod 503 are respectively connected to the power source 501 and the connecting block 502 to realize transmission.

[0067] Meanwhile, an electromagnet 201 is installed at the bottom of the sorting platform 20. The electromagnet 201 is used to generate electromagnetic force to keep the sorting platform 20 stationary when it is pressed. When the sorting platform 20 needs to be flipped, the electromagnet 201 is de-energized, allowing the sorting platform 20 to flip freely. After the sorting platform 20 is sorted and reset, the electromagnet 201 is energized to generate electromagnetic force and attract the sorting platform 20. When the gripper or suction cup grabs the glove blank on the sorting platform 20, the gripper or suction cup will continue to move downward and touch the sorting platform 20, which will then give the sorting platform 20 downward pressure to cause the sorting platform 20 to flip. The electromagnet 201 can attract the sorting platform 20 when it is pressed, making it stable.

[0068] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model also provides a glove blank conveying mechanism, including an automatic glove blank alignment device and a gripping device, wherein the gripping device includes a gripper or a suction cup.

[0069] The automatic alignment and straightening device for glove blanks is used to arrange the glove blanks on the sorting platform 20 in an orderly manner, and the gripping device is used to grip the neatly arranged glove blanks and move them to the next process.

[0070] This setup, with the sorting platform 20 tidying up the glove blanks, facilitates gripping by the grasping device, ensures the uniformity of the glove blanks being stretched by the grasping device, improves the glove blank settling effect and success rate, reduces manual glove settling operations, and lowers labor costs.

[0071] In summary, the present invention provides a solution by setting the sorting platform 20 to be freely tiltable, allowing the glove blanks to slide on the platform and be guided by the guide structure 30, thus ensuring that the glove blanks are neatly arranged. This facilitates the subsequent gripping by the grasping device, ensures the consistency of the glove blanks' opening amplitude, and facilitates the glove blank fitting action. At the same time, the spacing between the guide structures 30 is adjustable, which can adapt to the guiding operation of glove blanks of different sizes, improving the overall applicability of the device.
