[0016] See Figure 1-4This embodiment is a welding machine for yoga mat production, including roller bracket A1 and roller bracket B14. A gap is provided between roller bracket A1 and roller bracket B14, and a cutter 9 mechanism is provided in the gap. The cutter 9 mechanism includes fixed brackets 5 arranged on both sides of the gap. A set of horizontally arranged guide rods 6 are installed at the upper and lower ends of the two fixed brackets 5. A slide 7 is installed on each set of guide rods 6, and a conductor 8 is installed on each slide 7. The two conductors 8 are provided with connectors and are respectively connected to the positive and negative terminals of the power supply. The cutter 9 is connected between the conductors 8 of the two slides 7. A set of drive mechanisms is installed on each of the two fixed brackets 5 corresponding to the two slides 7. The two sets of drive mechanisms move synchronously so that the two slides 7 move synchronously in the same direction. A set of pressing mechanism is installed at the opposite end of roller bracket A1 and roller bracket B14. The pressing mechanism is used to press the yoga mat.

[0017] Furthermore, the drive mechanism includes a guide sprocket 17, a circulating chain 18, and a motor. The guide sprocket 17 is fixedly mounted on the two fixed brackets 5 on both sides, and the circulating chain 18 is wound around the guide sprocket 17. One of the guide sprockets 17 is connected to the output shaft of the motor, and the circulating chain 18 is fixedly connected to the corresponding slide 7.

[0018] Furthermore, the pressing mechanism includes a gantry frame 4, with a cylinder 3 mounted on the top of the gantry frame 4. The piston rod of the cylinder 3 extends downward and a pressure plate 2 is mounted on its bottom end.

[0019] Furthermore, the roller bracket A1 is used for feeding, and the roller bracket B14 is used for unloading. The starting end of the roller bracket A1 is equipped with a width recognition device, which includes a positioning plate 10, a detection mechanism, and an alarm. The positioning plate 10 is located on one side of the roller bracket A1. The detection mechanism is used to detect the width of the yoga mat on the roller bracket A1, and the detection mechanism is electrically connected to the alarm.

[0020] Furthermore, the detection mechanism includes a support rod A11 located above the roller bracket A1 and a support rod B16 located below the roller bracket A1. The support rod A11 and the support rod B16 are arranged along the axial direction of the roller. A laser emitter 13 is mounted on the support rod A11 and a laser receiver 15 is mounted on the support rod B16. The laser emitter 13 and the laser receiver 15 correspond to each other.

[0021] Furthermore, both support rod A11 and support rod B16 are provided with elongated through holes 12, and the laser emitter 13 and laser receiver 15 are installed in the elongated through holes 12.

[0022] In practical use, this utility model operates as follows: First, a worker loads a yoga mat from the starting end of the roller bracket A1, ensuring one side of the mat rests against the positioning plate 10. At this time, the detection mechanism checks the width of the yoga mat. If the width is incorrect, a signal is sent to the alarm, prompting the worker to check the mat's model. The roller bracket A1 then conveys the yoga mat forward to the roller bracket B14. When the tail of the mat reaches the position of the cutter 9 mechanism, the conveying stops. At this point, the pressing mechanism on the roller bracket B14 presses the mat firmly. Then, the two motors of the cutter 9 mechanism synchronously drive the upper and lower slides 7 to move along the guide rod 6. Simultaneously, the positive and negative terminals of the two conductors 8 are connected, and the cutter 9 is energized and heated to a high temperature. During its movement, the high-temperature cutter 9 trims the tail of the first yoga mat. After the trimming action is completed, the cutter 9... The mechanism stops operating; then the worker loads the second yoga mat from roller bracket A1. During loading, the detection mechanism automatically checks the width of the second yoga mat. If the width does not match the first yoga mat, an alarm sounds to alert the worker. If the width is correct, roller bracket A1 conveys the second yoga mat to the front. When the head of the second yoga mat is in contact with the tail of the first yoga mat, the pressing mechanism on roller bracket B14 presses the second yoga mat tightly. At this time, the cutter 9 mechanism starts again. The cutter 9 moves automatically along the cut. The high temperature of the cutter 9 completes the welding between the first and second yoga mats. After welding, roller bracket B14 and roller bracket A1 convey the welded yoga mat forward. When the tail of the second yoga mat reaches the cutter 9 mechanism, the process stops. Then, the previous action is repeated to weld the yoga mats one by one.

[0023] When the cutter 9 mechanism is activated, the upper and lower motors move synchronously, driving the two slide blocks 7 to move synchronously in the same direction via the circulating chain 18.

[0024] If you need to change the model of the yoga mat, simply adjust the position of the laser emitter 13 along the elongated through hole 12 on the support rod A11, and at the same time adjust the position of the laser receiver 15 along the elongated through hole 12 on the support rod B16 to correspond with the laser emitter 13, so that the adjusted position matches the width of the yoga mat of the new model.
