[0023] The accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting this patent. To better illustrate this embodiment, some components in the drawings may be omitted, enlarged, or reduced, and do not represent the actual dimensions of the product. It is understandable to those skilled in the art that some well-known structures and their descriptions may be omitted in the drawings. The positional relationships described in the drawings are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting this patent.

[0024] As attached Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the fully automatic flagpole production equipment includes: an equipment platform, a rotary table, a flagpole feeding assembly, a flag feeding assembly, a gluing assembly, a heat-sealing and pressing assembly, an edge-folding and positioning mold, and a finished product discharge assembly. A drive motor rotates the rotary table located on the equipment platform. Several edge-folding and positioning molds are mounted on the rotary table. The flagpole feeding assembly, flag feeding assembly, gluing assembly, heat-sealing and pressing assembly, and finished product discharge assembly are arranged around the rotary table. A transition roller is provided between the feeding roller and the discharge roller of the flag feeding assembly. A cutting blade and a flag positioning plate are provided at the front end of the discharge roller. A flag handling assembly is provided between the flag feeding assembly and the rotary table. A discharge roller is located in front of the storage tank of the flagpole feeding assembly. The discharge roller has several horizontal slots for placing flagpoles. A motor drives the discharge roller to rotate. A flagpole clamping assembly is located on one side of the flagpole feeding assembly. The flagpole clamping assembly is mounted on the equipment platform via an upper fixed plate. A folding cylinder located below the upper fixed plate drives the folding slider on the folding positioning mold to move via a push rod. At least one folding push plate is located below the folding slider. A lateral displacement motor located on the upper fixed plate drives the glue spraying head of the glue applicator to move back and forth. A lifting cylinder located on the upper fixed plate drives the pressing connecting plate of the heat sealing pressure rod assembly to move up and down. The finished product discharge assembly is mounted on the upper fixed plate. The finished product discharge motor of the finished product discharge assembly drives the clamping cylinder and the gripper to move back and forth.

[0025] A drive motor rotates the turntable. The flag feeding assembly cuts the flags, and the flag transport assembly places them on the folding edge positioning mold on the turntable. The turntable then transports the flags to each workstation in sequence. The flagpole feeding assembly places the flagpole on the folding edge positioning mold. The gluing assembly applies glue to one side of the flag, and the folding edge cylinder pushes the folding edge positioning mold's folding edge push plate inward, flipping one side of the flag. After folding, multiple sets of heat-sealing pressure rod assemblies perform heat pressing to fix the flag and flagpole, facilitating the finished product unloading assembly to transport the finished product to the designated location.

[0026] In the above scheme, the flag feeding assembly consists of a feeding roller, a discharge roller, a cutting blade, and a flag positioning plate. The motor rotates the discharge roller through a pulley and belt. The cutting cylinder drives the cutting blade to move up and down and press down to the gap on one side of the flag positioning plate. The motor drives the feeding roller to rotate through a rotating shaft. A pressure roller is provided above the discharge roller.

[0027] Multiple sets of transition rollers are set between the feeding roller and the output roller. These multiple sets of transition rollers can store the flag material, which facilitates the orderly delivery of the flag fabric. Under the traction of the output roller, the flag fabric is transported to the flag positioning plate, and then the cutting cylinder drives the cutting blade to cut downwards, cutting the fabric into rectangular flag pieces for orderly processing.

[0028] In the above solution, the flag handling assembly consists of a horizontal flag handling motor, a vertical flag handling cylinder, a suction cup assembly bracket, and suction cups. Several suction cups are arranged on the suction cup assembly bracket. The vertical flag handling cylinder drives the suction cup assembly bracket to move up and down, while the horizontal flag handling motor drives the vertical flag handling cylinder to move laterally via a transmission belt. Multiple sets of suction cups are arranged on the suction cup assembly bracket, working in conjunction with an air pump to pick up the flags. The horizontal flag handling motor and the vertical flag handling cylinder then move the flags to the folding and positioning mold.

[0029] In the above scheme, the flagpole feeding assembly consists of a storage tank and a discharge roller. The discharge roller is located outside the discharge port of the storage tank, and a rotating brush is located inside the discharge port. A motor drives the discharge roller and the rotating brush to rotate via gears. The outer surface of the discharge roller has several horizontal grooves and concave annular grooves. The flagpole clamping assembly consists of cylinder claws, a displacement assembly, and a support strip. At least two cylinder claws are mounted on the support strip, which is connected to the displacement assembly. The displacement assembly drives the support strip to move vertically and laterally. The displacement assembly uses a lateral drive device and a longitudinal drive device to drive the cylinder claws on the support strip to move. This technology is existing and will not be described in detail here.

[0030] Several flagpoles are pre-placed on the storage tank. The motor is started to drive the discharge roller and rotating brush to rotate. Under the action of the rotating brush, the flagpoles fall into the horizontal groove on the outer surface of the discharge roller in sequence. The discharge roller drives the flagpoles to rotate continuously. When they reach the designated position, the horizontal bar extends into the circular groove, and the flagpoles are taken out. Then, the cylinder claw of the flagpole clamping component grabs them and the displacement component transports the flagpoles to the flagpole groove of the folding positioning mold.

[0031] In the above scheme, the glue application assembly consists of a lateral displacement motor, a glue spraying head, a glue spraying valve, and a connecting bracket. One end of the connecting bracket is mounted on a transmission belt. The lateral displacement motor drives the transmission belt to move through a gear set and a pulley. The other end of the connecting bracket is connected to the glue spraying valve and the glue spraying head. The glue spraying head extends downward to above the glue spraying position of the folding positioning mold.

[0032] The equipment's main controller starts the lateral displacement motor, which drives the connecting bracket to move back and forth. During the movement, the glue valve can be activated to control the glue dispensing speed of the glue nozzle. When the glue nozzle is aligned with one edge of the flag, it applies glue precisely, causing the flagpole and flag to adhere and take shape.

[0033] In the above scheme, the folding cylinder is obliquely installed below the upper fixed plate, the folding slider is installed on a slide rod on one side of the folding positioning mold, and a folding push plate extending into the folding positioning mold is provided below the folding slider. The folding cylinder is set on the left and right sides of the glue application assembly. The upper fixed plate is provided with at least two lifting cylinders. The lifting cylinders drive the pressing connecting plate to move downward to the folding position of the flag. A heating plate is provided at the bottom of the pressing connecting plate, and an arc strip for supporting the tail of the flagpole is provided around the rotating disk.

[0034] Two sets of folding cylinders are respectively installed obliquely under the upper fixed plate, located on one side of the glue application component and the other side of the finished product discharge component. The two sets of folding cylinders push or push the folding slider in two different directions to realize the folding push plate to fold the flag and reset itself.

[0035] In the above scheme, the finished product discharge assembly consists of a finished product discharge motor, a clamping and lifting cylinder, a clamping cylinder, and a gripper. The finished product discharge motor drives the clamping and lifting cylinder to move back and forth via a conveyor belt. The bottom of the clamping and lifting cylinder is connected to the clamping cylinder, and the clamping cylinder is connected to the gripper and drives the gripper to move closer and further apart. A storage rack is provided on the outside of the equipment platform. A storage motor is provided at one end of the storage rack. The storage motor drives the chain to rotate via a sprocket and a rotating shaft. Several supports are provided on both parallel chains.

[0036] The finished product discharge motor works with the clamping lifting cylinder to drive the clamping cylinder to move. The clamping cylinder controls the opening and closing of the gripper to grasp the finished product flagpole, which can smoothly place the finished product on the bracket on the chain. Then, the storage motor drives several brackets to gradually move in one direction, making it convenient for workers to pick up or move to the designated position.

[0037] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating this utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here.
