[0023] 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.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, a wrinkle-removing device for producing cotton towels includes a base 1, a conveying device 2 disposed above the base 1, and a mounting frame 3 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. The base 1 serves as the supporting foundation for the entire device, used to install the conveying device 2 and the mounting frame 3, ensuring stable operation of the equipment. The conveying device 2 is designed to convey cotton towels and consists of a motor, a worm gear, a worm wheel, a roller, and a conveyor belt. The motor is fixed to one side of the base 1, and the output end of the motor is fixed to one end of the worm gear. The outer side of the worm gear meshes with the outer side of the worm wheel. The inner wall of the worm gear is fixedly connected to the outer side of the roller, and the outer side of the roller is drivenly connected to the inner wall of the conveyor belt. A positioning block for supporting the roller is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. A side plate for supporting the worm is fixed to one side of the base 1. When the motor rotates, it drives the worm to rotate. When the worm rotates, it drives the worm wheel to rotate. When the worm wheel rotates, it drives the roller to rotate. The rotation of the roller drives the conveyor belt to transport the cotton towel, thereby realizing continuous operation on the production line. The mounting frame 3 is used to provide a mounting support structure for the drive assembly 7.

[0025] The flattening component 4 is located above the conveying device 2. The flattening component 4 includes a push plate 41 set above the conveying device 2, and the number of push plates 41 is set to two. Two sets of sleeve rods 42 are set above the push plate 41. The inner wall of the sleeve rod 42 is slidably connected to the slide rod 43, and the number of sleeve rods 42 and slide rods 43 is set to multiple. The two sets of push plates 41 can push the cotton soft towel from the middle area to both sides to eliminate edge wrinkles and make it flat. Through the design of the sleeve rods 42 and slide rods 43, a telescopic structure is formed to transmit driving force and control the movement range of the push plate 41, ensuring that the push plate 41 will not get stuck when it descends.

[0026] The pressure plate 5 is positioned above the conveying device 2, and two sets of fixing plates 6 are fixedly connected to one side of the pressure plate 5. The pressure plate 5 is designed to press down on the cotton towel from above, and with the lateral squeezing of the push plate 41, the cotton towel is flattened in all directions. The fixing plates 6 are designed to facilitate connection with the pressure plate 5.

[0027] The drive assembly 7 is located inside the mounting frame 3; the drive assembly 7 includes a first cylinder 71 fixed to the inner wall of the mounting frame 3, and a second cylinder 72 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame 3 for connection with the pressure plate 5; the piston rod of the first cylinder 71 is fixedly connected to a connecting seat 8, and the inner wall of the connecting seat 8 is rotatably connected to a connecting block 9 via a rotating shaft, and one side of the connecting block 9 is fixedly connected to one end of the slide rod 43; the top of the push plate 41 is fixedly connected to a mounting seat 10, and the inner wall of the mounting seat 10 is rotatably connected to one end of the sleeve rod 42 via a rotating shaft; the design of the first cylinder 71 is used to drive the connecting seat 8. The horizontal movement of the push plate 41 is controlled by the extension and retraction of the slide rod 43 via the connecting block 9. The design of the second cylinder 72 is used to drive the pressure plate 5 to move up and down, realizing the downward pressing and flattening operation of the cotton towel. The design of the connecting seat 8 and the connecting block 9 is used to convert the linear motion of the first cylinder 71 into the pushing and pulling action of the slide rod 43. The rotating connection of the shaft allows for a certain angle of swing to adapt to the movement trajectory of the push plate 41. Since the design of the mounting seat 10 connects the push plate 41 and the sleeve rod 42 via the rotating shaft, the extension and retraction of the sleeve rod 42 can drive the push plate 41 to move smoothly.

[0028] A long plate 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the push plate 41. A connecting plate 12 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the long plate 11 via a pivot. A sleeve plate 13 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the connecting plate 12 via a pivot. A slide plate 14 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sleeve plate 13. A positioning seat 15 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the slide plate 14 via a pivot. A positioning frame 16 is fixedly connected to the top of the positioning seat 15, and one side of the positioning frame 16 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame 3. The design of the long plate 11, connecting plate 12, sleeve plate 13 and slide plate 14 constitutes a linkage mechanism. When the push plate 41 moves, the long plate 11 drives the connecting plate 12 to rotate. The connecting plate 12 then slides with the slide plate 14 through the sleeve plate 13, ensuring the stability and synchronization of the push plate 41's movement. The design of the positioning seat 15 and the positioning frame 16 is used to fix the movement trajectory of the slide plate 14. The pivot connection ensures that the slide plate 14 can only slide within the range limited by the positioning frame 16, ensuring the accuracy of the linkage mechanism.

[0029] The top of the fixed plate 6 is fixedly connected with a sleeve 17, and the number of sleeves 17 is set to four sets. The inner walls of the four sets of sleeves 17 are slidably connected with slide tubes 18. The four sets of sleeves 17 and slide tubes 18 form a guide structure, which restricts the movement direction of the pressure plate 5, ensures its vertical up and down movement, and improves the stability of the flattening effect. It should be noted that the two sets of cylinders are composed of an air compressor, an air tank, a filter pressure reducing valve, a directional control valve, and a flow control valve. When in use, the air compressor compresses the ambient air to the set pressure and stores it in the air tank. The filter pressure reducing valve further purifies the air and stabilizes the pressure. The air is delivered to the control valve through the air pipe. The directional control valve switches the airflow channel according to the electrical signal to determine the extension and retraction direction of the cylinder. The flow control valve adjusts the airflow speed and controls the movement speed of the cylinder. Compressed air enters the rodless chamber or rodless chamber of the cylinder, pushing the piston to move. The piston drives the piston rod to output linear reciprocating motion.

[0030] Working principle: When wrinkle removal is needed on the cotton towel, the conveying device 2 carries and transports the cotton towel to the area below the flattening component 4. First, the first cylinder 71 is activated, causing the connecting seat 8 to move upward. The upward movement of the connecting seat 8 causes the sliding rod 43 and the sleeve rod 42 to move, thereby causing the two sets of push plates 41 to move closer to each other, ensuring that the push plates 41 are located in the off-center area of ​​the cotton towel. At this time, the first cylinder 71 is activated again, and the piston rod of the first cylinder 71 pushes the connecting seat 8 to move. The connecting seat 8 drives the connecting block 9 to move through the rotating shaft, thereby causing the sliding rod 43 to slide inside the sleeve rod 42. When the sliding rod 43 slides to the inner wall of the sleeve rod 42 and can no longer slide, it can push the sleeve rod 42, thereby causing the sleeve rod 42 to move outward. Moving horizontally, the two sets of push plates 41 move in opposite directions under the drive of the slide rod 43. When moving towards each other, the push plates 41 press laterally from the center area of ​​the cotton towel to both sides, initially smoothing out the edge wrinkles. Finally, the two sets of push plates 41 have moved to the outside of the cotton towel, ensuring that the cotton towel will not be squeezed by the push plates 41 when it is taken away. Then, the cotton towel is moved to the bottom of the pressure plate 5, and the second cylinder 72 is activated. The second cylinder 72 drives the pressure plate 5 to move vertically downward, applying pressure to the cotton towel from above. Together with the push plates 41, the cotton towel is made flat in all directions. Through this process, the wrinkles on the cotton towel are effectively removed, meeting the flatness requirements of subsequent packaging and ensuring the product's appearance and quality.
