Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of nail strip processing equipment, specifically to an automatic nail strip centering adjustment device. Background Technology
[0002] Nail art is a service that decorates and beautifies fingernails and toenails. Also known as nail design, it involves disinfecting, cleaning, caring for, maintaining, and beautifying fingernails and toenails based on the client's hand shape, nail shape, skin type, clothing color, and requirements. It is characterized by its diverse forms of expression.
[0003] In automated nail production, nail strips need to be centered on the conveyor belt before entering the subsequent color printing and cutting processes. Currently, nail strips still need to be centered manually on the conveyor belt. If the nail strip is held by hand, fingerprints are easily left on the nail piece, resulting in defective products in the subsequent color printing. In addition, manual operation has a low degree of automation and is cumbersome. Therefore, we have invented an automatic nail strip centering adjustment device. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic centering adjustment device for nail strips to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

The main support is evenly connected to the side supports at both ends, and the nail pieces are connected to the side supports. The automatic centering adjustment device includes a conveyor belt, and positioning plates are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt. Several sets of clamp seats are symmetrically installed on the positioning plates on both sides. Spring plates are installed on the clamp seats, and the spring plates are bent and fixed on the clamp seats.
[0007] Preferably, the clamp seats are configured in four sets and arranged on both sides of the conveyor belt, forming two sets of spring plates. The spacing C of the spring plates at the front end of the conveyor belt is smaller than the spacing A of the spring plates at the rear end of the conveyor belt; and both spacing A and C are smaller than the width B of the nail strip.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the clamp seat is composed of a right clamp, a left clamp, a screw one, and a screw two. A guide portion is provided in the middle of the left end of the right clamp, and a guide groove is provided in the middle of the bottom of the left clamp, with the guide portion extending into the guide groove.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a notch is provided at the top left end of the right clamp, a positioning protrusion is provided at the top right end of the left clamp, the positioning protrusion extends into the notch, a notch is provided at the bottom left end of the right clamp, a positioning protrusion is provided at the bottom right end of the left clamp, and the positioning protrusion extends into the notch.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a strip-shaped through hole is provided in the middle of the right clamp, and a second screw is connected inside the strip-shaped through hole. The second screw is threaded onto the internal thread of the positioning plate, and a rubber gasket is installed between the second screw and the right clamp.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the right clamp has a through hole and the left clamp has an internal threaded hole, and the screw passes through the through hole and connects to the internal threaded hole.

[0015] This device is suitable for automatically centering nail strips on a moving conveyor belt. Since a nail strip weighs about 5 grams, conventional centering devices cannot achieve an error of no less than 1 millimeter on lighter objects.
[0016] We use two sets of springs with different angles and forces (the first set for fine-tuning and the second set for precise adjustment) to automatically center the nail clippers during rapid movement, without bumping into the undried coating on the nail clippers. Compared to manually centering them, this method saves a lot of time and increases productivity. Attached Figure Description
