[0037] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be described in detail below.
[0038] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center," "longitudinal," "lateral," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating orientation or positional relationships, are based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.
[0039] like Figures 1 to 11 The image shows a preferred embodiment of an automated production equipment for air cushion product components according to this utility model, including an unwinding station 01, a punching conveyor 02, a punching and unloading station 03, a first welding machine 04, a stacking conveyor line 05, a material transfer conveyor 06, a screen printing machine 07, a dryer 08, a main traction roller 09, a second welding machine 10, a punching and slitting station 11, a multi-line integrated mechanism 12, a third welding machine 13, and a cross-cutting and receiving device 14.
[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, the unwinding station 01 includes a first unwinding machine a and a second unwinding machine b. The first unwinding machine a is equipped with roll material A0112, and the second unwinding machine b is equipped with roll material B0113. The first unwinding machine a and the second unwinding machine b can work simultaneously and provide processing materials 15 to the equipment corresponding to different processes, thereby processing two kinds of materials 15 for use in subsequent production and assembly processes, thus improving production efficiency.
[0041] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, both the first unwinding machine a and the second unwinding machine b include an unwinding frame 011 and an unwinding base 012. The unwinding frame 011 is movably mounted on the unwinding base 012 via a shifting mechanism 013. The unwinding frame 011 includes two mounting positions 0111 for mounting the roll material, a drive roller assembly 014, and two cutting blades 015 for cutting the material. The material 15 on the roll material A0112 / roll material B0113 is continuously transferred to the punching conveyor frame 02 via the drive roller assembly 014. The specific structure of the drive roller assembly 014 can be referred to the attached drawings. Those skilled in the art can easily conceive of various alternative solutions to achieve the above functions, so they will not be described in detail here.
[0042] In this embodiment, the shifting mechanism 013 includes a shifting cylinder 0131, a shifting guide rail 0132, and a shifting slider 0133. The fixed end and the movable end of the shifting cylinder 0131 are respectively installed on the unwinding base 012 and the unwinding frame 011. The unwinding frame 011 and the unwinding base 012 are respectively provided with mutually cooperating shifting guide rails 0132 and shifting sliders 0133. By pushing and pulling the unwinding frame 011 back and forth in the horizontal direction, the material 15 can be corrected.
[0043] The first unwinding machine a can be equipped with two rolls A0112, and the second unwinding machine b can be equipped with two rolls B0113, one for use and one for backup. Two cutting blades 015 are interposed in the gap of the transmission roller assembly 014, corresponding to the two rolls installed on the two assembly positions 0111 respectively. That is, one cutting blade 015 is used to cut the material 15 provided by the main roll A0112 / roll B0113, and the other cutting blade 015 is used to cut the material 15 provided by the backup roll A0112 / roll B0113.
[0044] In this embodiment, both roll A0112 and roll B0113 are rolls with a maximum diameter of 0.5m, a paper tube diameter of 58mm, and a weight of 300kg, which can output a semi-transparent TPU film with a thickness of 0.1mm and a width of 1.58m.
[0045] In this embodiment, the unwinding rack 011 is also equipped with two ultrasonic ranging sensors 016, which are respectively positioned facing the two assembly positions 0111 to measure the diameter of the roll material. During the production process, when the roll material needs to be replaced, the material 15 provided by the corresponding roll material is cut by the cutting blade 015, and then the material 15 of the other roll material is pulled to the drive roller assembly 014, thereby continuing the production process, reducing equipment downtime, and improving production efficiency.
[0046] During operation, the material is first loaded manually. The roll A0112 to be processed is installed on the assembly position 0111 of the first unwinding machine a, and the roll B0113 to be processed is installed on the assembly position 0111 of the second unwinding machine b. Then, the material 15 is pulled to the transmission roller assembly 014, and the material 15 is conveyed to the punching conveyor frame 02 through the transmission roller assembly 014 for subsequent production.
[0047] The punching conveyor 02 is located between the first unwinding machine a and the first welding machine 04 to convey the material 15 provided by the first unwinding machine a through the punching and unloading station 03 to the first welding machine 04; the punching and unloading station 03 is located on the side of the punching conveyor 02 for punching air nozzle holes and installing air nozzles; the feeding end of the first welding machine 04 is located downstream of the punching conveyor 02 for welding; the upstream of the stacking conveyor line 05 is located at the discharge end of the first welding machine 04, and the downstream of the stacking conveyor line 05 is located in front of the main traction roller 09.
[0048] like Figure 5 As shown, the punching conveyor 02 is equipped with multiple first guide rollers 021, first traction rollers 022, and first flattening rollers 023. The punching unloading station 03 includes a first punching machine 031, an unloading device 032, and a robotic arm 033. The first punching machine 031 is located on the side of the punching conveyor 02, and the unloading port of the unloading device 032 and the punching position of the first punching machine 031 are both within the stroke range of the robotic arm 033. The stacking conveyor line 05 is equipped with multiple second guide rollers 051, multiple second traction rollers 052, and second flattening rollers 053.
[0049] In this embodiment, the first punching machine 031 is mounted on one side of the punching conveyor frame 02 via a cylinder, so that the first punching machine 031 can move back and forth relative to the material 15. When the first punching machine 031 moves forward, it punches at the preset punching position. When the first punching machine 031 moves backward, it completely avoids the punching position, which is convenient for the robotic arm 033 to install the air nozzle.
[0050] During operation, the material 15 output from the first unwinding machine a passes through a first guide roller 021, a first flattening roller 023, and a first traction roller 022 in sequence before being conveyed to the punching and unloading station 03. The first punching machine 031 punches air nozzle holes into the material 15. Afterward, the first punching machine 031 moves backward, and the robotic arm 033 grabs the air nozzle at the discharge port of the unloading device 032, transfers it to the punching position, and puts it down, thus completing the placement of the air nozzle. The material 15 continues to flow and is conveyed to the first welding machine 04 through the remaining first guide roller 021. The first welding machine 04 welds the air nozzle to the air nozzle hole together. After welding, the material 15 passes through multiple second guide rollers 051, multiple second traction rollers 052, and a second flattening roller 053 in sequence before being conveyed to the main traction roller 09 for subsequent processing.
[0051] To improve the accuracy of the air nozzle holes, the punching conveyor 02 is also equipped with an unwinding correction sensor 024. In this embodiment, the unwinding correction sensor 024 is installed at the first traction roller 022. When the unwinding correction sensor 024 detects that the material 15 is deviated, the unwinding frame 011 is moved by the shifting mechanism 013 to automatically correct the material 15 without manual intervention.
[0052] The transfer conveyor 06 is set between the second unwinding machine b and the main traction roller 09. The screen printing machine 07 and the dryer 08 are arranged sequentially along the discharge direction of the second unwinding machine b and are located within the stroke range of the transfer conveyor 06, so as to be used for printing and spraying and drying respectively.
[0053] like Figure 6As shown, the material conveying frame 06 includes a feeding conveying group 061, a discharging conveying group 062, and a camera module 063. The feeding conveying group 061 is located between the second unwinding machine b and the screen printing machine 07, the discharging conveying group 062 is located between the dryer 08 and the main traction roller 09, and the camera module 063 is positioned facing the discharging conveying group 062.
[0054] In this embodiment, the feeding conveyor group 061 includes multiple third passing rollers 0611, third traction rollers 0612 and third flattening rollers 0613, and the unloading conveyor group 062 includes multiple fourth passing rollers 0621, fourth traction rollers 0622 and fourth flattening rollers 0623.
[0055] During operation, the material 15 output from the second unwinding machine b passes through multiple third guide rollers 0611, third traction rollers 0612 and third flattening rollers 0613 in sequence and is then conveyed to the screen printing machine 07. The screen printing machine 07 prints a pattern onto the material 15, and then the pattern is dried by the dryer 08. After drying, the material 15 passes through multiple fourth guide rollers 0621, fourth traction rollers 0622 and fourth flattening rollers 0623 in sequence and is then conveyed to the main traction roller 09 with the printed side facing upward.
[0056] The main traction roller 09 is used to stack the material 15 welded by the first welding machine 04 and the material 15 dried by the dryer 08 and then convey them to the second welding machine 10.
[0057] like Figure 7 As shown, the downstream of both the stacked conveyor line 05 and the unloading conveyor group 062 is located in front of the main traction roller 09, and the rear side of the main traction roller 09 is correspondingly located at the feed end of the second welding machine 10.
[0058] In this embodiment, the first unwinding machine a, the punching conveyor frame 02, the punching unloading station 03, and the first welding machine 04 are located at a position far from the main traction roller 09, so that the stacking conveyor line 05 is erected above the second unwinding machine b, the material transfer conveyor line, the screen printing machine 07, and the dryer 08, and the downstream of the stacking conveyor line 05 merges with the downstream of the unloading conveyor group 062 at the front side of the main traction roller 09.
[0059] During operation, the two sets of materials 15 conveyed by the stacking conveyor line 05 and the unloading conveyor group 062 are flattened and overlapped after passing through the corresponding second flattening roller 053 or fourth flattening roller 0623. The material 15 with the air nozzle is covered on the printing surface of the printed material 15. The two sets of materials 15 are conveyed to the main traction roller 09 and then conveyed together to the second welding machine 10. The two sets of materials 15 are welded together by the second welding machine 10.
[0060] To ensure the alignment of the two layers of material 15, the stacked conveyor line 05 is equipped with a first correction guide frame 054 and a first correction sensor 055 near the main traction roller 09. After the first correction sensor 055 detects the deviation of material 15, it corrects the conveying angle of material 15 through the first correction guide frame 054. The transfer conveyor frame 06 is equipped with a second correction guide frame 064 and a second correction sensor 065 near the main traction roller 09. After the second correction sensor 065 detects the deviation of material 15, it corrects the conveying angle of material 15 through the second correction guide frame 064, thereby correcting the deviation of material 15 output from the first unwinder a and the second unwinder b, and ensuring the overlap accuracy of the two layers of material 15 when conveyed to the main traction roller 09.
[0061] In this embodiment, the first and second correction guide frames 054 and 064 are both large correction guide frames with a roller length of 1800mm.
[0062] The second welding machine 10, the punching and slitting station 11, the multi-strip integration mechanism 12, the third welding machine 13, and the cross-cutting and receiving equipment 14 are sequentially arranged on the rear side of the main traction roller 09, and are used for welding, punching and longitudinal slitting, stacking, welding, cross-cutting and unloading, respectively.
[0063] like Figure 8 As shown, the discharge end of the second welding machine 10 is provided with a punching and slitting station 11. The punching and slitting station 11 includes a second punching machine 111 and a slitting machine 112. The slitting machine 112 includes a slitting blade 1121 and a slitting traction roller 1122. The slitting blade 1121 is disposed between the second punching machine 111 and the slitting traction roller 1122.
[0064] In this embodiment, the punching machine is equipped with six rows of punches along the width direction of the material 15, and the slitting blade 1121 is equipped with seven rows of blades along the width direction of the material 15. The slitting blade 1121 is fixedly installed above the conveying path of the material 15 so that the material 15 can be cut into eight strips of material 15 by the slitting blade 1121. The six strips of material 15 in the middle have the same width, and the two strips of material 15 on the edge have different widths depending on the error of the conveying offset.
[0065] During operation, the material 15, after being welded by the second welding machine 10, is punched by the second punching machine 111. The punched material 15 is then slit by the slitting knife 1121 and finally conveyed to the multi-strip integration mechanism 12 by the slitting traction roller 1122.
[0066] To improve the accuracy of punching and slitting, a third correction guide frame 1131 and a third correction sensor 1132 are provided between the second welding machine 10 and the second punching machine 111. After the third correction sensor 1132 detects the deviation of the material 15, it corrects the conveying angle of the material 15 through the third correction guide frame 1131. A fourth correction guide frame 1133 and a fourth correction sensor 1134 are provided between the second punching machine 111 and the slitting machine 112. When the fourth correction sensor 1134 detects the deviation of the material 15, it corrects the conveying angle of the material 15 through the fourth correction guide frame 1133. To ensure uniform slitting width, the third correction guide frame 1131 in this embodiment is a large correction guide frame with a roller length of 1800mm.
[0067] The multi-unit mechanism 12 is set between the punching and slitting station 11 and the third welding machine 13, and is used to stack the slit material 15 and then transport it to the third welding machine 13.
[0068] like Figure 9 As shown, the multi-integrated mechanism 12 includes a diversion module 121, multiple product composite lines c, and composite traction rollers 125. The diversion module 121 and the composite traction rollers 125 are respectively arranged upstream and downstream of the product composite lines c. The diversion module 121 includes a buffer zone 1221, multiple diversion rollers 1222, and multiple steering rollers 1223 arranged in sequence. The product composite line c includes multiple fifth guide rollers 122, a correction actuator 123, and a tension roller 124 arranged in sequence at intervals.
[0069] In this embodiment, the multi-integrated mechanism 12 also includes multiple edge material composite lines d disposed outside the multiple product composite lines c. The diversion module 121 is disposed upstream of the edge material composite line d, and the downstream of the edge material composite line d is disposed in front of the composite traction roller 125. The edge material composite line d includes multiple fifth passing rollers 122 arranged sequentially at intervals.
[0070] Specifically, the multi-line integration mechanism 12 includes six parallel product composite lines c and two edge material composite lines d, with the two edge material composite lines d positioned above and below the six product composite lines c, respectively. The buffer zone 1221 includes multiple rollers of different heights to distribute multiple strips of material 15 to different heights. The rear side of the buffer zone 1221 is equipped with eight diversion rollers 1222 and seven sets of steering rollers 1223 of different heights. The eight diversion rollers 1222 correspond one-to-one with the eight strips of material 15 after slitting, and the seven sets of steering rollers 1223 correspond one-to-one with seven of the diversion rollers 1222.
[0071] Among them, the steering rollers 1223 located at the same height form a group, and the steering rollers 1223 are used to turn the seven materials 15 so that the eight materials 15 are on the same processing plane.
[0072] In this embodiment, each product composite line c has multiple fifth guide rollers 122, a web guiding actuator 123, and a tension roller 124. Each web guiding actuator 123 includes a sensor for detection and a guide frame for web guiding to ensure the overlapping accuracy of multiple materials 15 when they are conveyed to the main traction roller 09. In this embodiment, each web guiding actuator 123 of each product composite line c is equipped with a web guiding frame with a roller length of 300mm to ensure stacking accuracy.
[0073] During operation, the eight strips of material 15, after being slit, pass through the buffer zone 1221 and then wrap around the corresponding diverting rollers 1222 in sequence. Afterward, one strip of material 15 wraps around the corresponding fifth guide roller 122, while the other seven strips of material 15 are turned by the corresponding turning rollers 1223 and then wrapped around the corresponding fifth guide rollers 122. The material 15 located on the product composite line c passes through multiple fifth guide rollers 122, the correction actuator 123, and the tension roller 124 in sequence before being conveyed to the composite traction roller 125. The material 15 located on the edge material composite line d passes through multiple fifth guide rollers 122 in sequence before being conveyed to the composite traction roller 125. Finally, the six strips of material 15 located on the product composite line c are stacked one on top of the other, with the top and bottom layers being the material 15 from the edge material composite line d. The eight layers of material 15 are conveyed together by the composite traction roller 125 to the third welding machine 13, where the eight strips of material 15 are welded together.
[0074] The cross-cutting and receiving device 14 is installed at the discharge end of the third welding machine 13 to cut and unload the multiple combined materials 15 into finished products.
[0075] like Figure 10 As shown, the cross-cutting receiving device 14 includes a transmission module 141 and a cross-cutting machine 142. The transmission module 141 is disposed at the discharge end of the third welding machine 13 to convey the material 15 to the cross-cutting machine 142. The cross-cutting machine 142 is disposed downstream of the transmission module 141 to cut the material 15.
[0076] In this embodiment, the transmission module 141 includes a sixth guide roller 1411, a tension adjustment mechanism 1412, and a cross-cutting traction roller 1413. The tension adjustment mechanism 1412 is movably disposed between the sixth guide roller 1411 and the cross-cutting traction roller 1413 to adjust the tension of the material 15 during the conveying process. The cross-cutting machine 142 includes a cutting seat 1421, a pressing cylinder 1422, a cross-cutting blade 1423, and a detection module 1424. The movable seat of the pressing cylinder 1422 is movably pressed against the cutting seat 1421 to fix the material 15. The cross-cutting blade 1423 is movably engaged with the cutting seat 1421 to cut the material 15. The detection module 1424 is disposed above the cutting seat 1421 and faces the cutting seat 1421, that is, the detection module 1424 faces the material 15 passing below. To facilitate material unloading, a material guide plate 1425 corresponding to the material unloading port of the cross-cutting machine 142 is also provided behind the cutting blade, which facilitates manual material handling.
[0077] During operation, multiple combined materials 15 pass through the sixth roller 1411 and the tension adjustment mechanism 1412 in sequence, and are then conveyed to the cross-cutting machine 142 via the cross-cutting traction roller 1413. The material 15 passes above the cutting seat 1421 and sequentially passes below the pressing cylinder 1422, the cross-cutting blade 1423, and the detection module 1424. When the detection module 1424 detects that the material 15 passing below has reached the preset length, the pressing cylinder 1422 presses down to fix the material 15 on the cutting seat 1421. Then, the cross-cutting blade 1423 moves down, and the material 15 is cut by the cross-cutting blade 1423 and the preset blade edge of the cutting seat 1421 intersecting each other, thus completing the production of the product. Finally, the cut material 15, i.e. the product, is guided by the unloading guide plate 1425 to the unloading port of the cross-cutting machine 142, and the product can be removed manually.
[0078] The products processed by this equipment can be used in the production of air mattresses. That is, this product is used as a side component of an air mattress, and multiple products of different sizes need to be welded together to produce an air mattress.
[0079] In the production preparation stage, the automated production equipment in this embodiment requires manual labor to guide the material 15 to each traction roller and equipment. After the material 15 starts to flow normally, it is only necessary to set up a manual feeding point at the unwinding station 01 and a manual unloading point at the unloading port of the cross-cutting machine 142. All other intermediate production processes can be automated by this equipment, reducing manual intervention and improving production efficiency.
