[0040] This utility model relates to a multi-layer folding mechanism for garbage bags, such as... Figures 1-2 As shown, it includes a folding module 1, and folding mechanisms 2, 3, 4 and 5 respectively arranged around its periphery to cooperate with it for folding the product. Through the cooperation of the above four folding mechanisms with the folding module 1, this utility model can realize six folds of the product.
[0041] The folding module 1 includes several vertically connected folding components, such as... Figures 3-4 As shown, the folding component includes a first folding component 12, a second folding component 13 vertically connected to one side of the first folding component 12, a third folding component 14 vertically connected to one side of the second folding component 13, a fourth folding component 15 vertically connected to one side of the third folding component 14, a support component 11 connected to the top surface of the first folding component 12 for placing the product, and a fifth folding component 16 vertically connected to one side of the fourth folding component 15.
[0042] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the support member 11 includes a horizontally arranged support plate 111 and a first folding hole 112 that passes through the top surface of the support plate 111. In use, the product is placed on the top surface of the support plate 111. Under the action of the folding mechanism 12 and the first folding hole 112, the product passes through the first folding hole 112 and is folded once.
[0043] like Figure 6 As shown, the primary folding component 12 includes a primary folding plate 121, a primary folding receiving groove 122 formed on the top surface of the primary folding plate 121, and a secondary folding hole 123 formed through the side of the primary folding plate 121 and connected to the primary folding receiving groove 122. The primary folding hole 112 is adapted to and connected to the primary folding receiving groove 122. After the product is folded once, it will enter the interior of the primary folding receiving groove 122. Under the action of the folding mechanism 23, the product after the product is folded once will pass through the secondary folding hole 123 for secondary folding.
[0044] like Figure 7 As shown, the secondary folding component 13 includes a secondary folding plate 131 vertically connected to one side of the primary folding plate 121, a secondary folding receiving groove 132 opened inside the secondary folding plate 131 and connected to the secondary folding hole 123, and a tertiary folding hole 133 penetrating through and opened on the side of the secondary folding plate 131 and connected to the secondary folding receiving groove 132; the product after secondary folding will be sent into the interior of the secondary folding receiving groove 132 under the action of the second folding mechanism 3, and will pass through the tertiary folding hole 133 under the action of the third folding mechanism 4 for tertiary folding.
[0045] like Figure 8 As shown, the three-fold component 14 includes a three-fold plate 141 vertically connected to one side of the two-fold plate 131 and arranged parallel to the one-fold plate 121, a three-fold receiving groove 142 opened inside the three-fold plate 141 and connected to the three-fold hole 133, and a four-fold hole 143 through which the product is opened on the side of the three-fold plate 141 and connected to the three-fold receiving groove 142; the product after three folds enters the three-fold receiving groove 142 and is folded through the four-fold hole 143 under the secondary action of the folding mechanism 3, thus realizing the four-fold folding of the product.
[0046] like Figure 9As shown, the four-fold component 15 includes a four-fold plate 151 vertically connected to one side of the three-fold plate 141 and arranged parallel to the two-fold plate 131, a four-fold receiving groove 152 opened inside the four-fold plate 151 and connected to the four-fold hole 143, and a five-fold hole 153 horizontally opened through the side of the four-fold plate 151 and connected to the four-fold receiving groove 152. The product after four folds enters the four-fold receiving groove 152, and under the secondary action of the three-fold mechanism 4, it folds out through the five-fold hole 153 to perform the fifth fold.
[0047] like Figure 10 As shown, the five-fold component 16 includes a five-fold plate 161 vertically connected to one side of the four-fold plate 151, a five-fold receiving groove 162 opened inside the five-fold plate 161 and connected to the five-fold hole 153, and a six-fold hole 163 penetrating through the top surface of the five-fold plate 161. The product after the fifth fold is sent into the five-fold receiving groove 162 under the secondary action of the folding mechanism three 4, and finally folds through the six-fold hole 163 under the action of the folding mechanism four 5 to complete the six folds and enter the next process.
[0048] Among them, such as Figure 11 As shown, the folding mechanism 2 includes a linear module 22 mounted on the top of the frame 21, and a folding insert 23 connected to the slider of the linear module 22. Specifically, the folding insert 23 is adapted to the primary folding hole 112. In use, the operation of the linear module 22 causes the movable slider on it to drive the end of the folding insert 23 to insert into the primary folding hole 112 and extend into the primary folding receiving groove 122.
[0049] like Figure 12 As shown, the folding mechanism 2 3 includes a linear module 2 32 mounted on the frame 2 31, and folding insert plates 2 34 and 4 35 respectively connected to both sides of the slider of the linear module 2 32. Specifically, folding insert plates 2 34 and 4 35 are adapted to the secondary folding hole 123 and the quaternary folding hole 143 respectively, and can be inserted into or extended out of the secondary folding hole 123 and the quaternary folding hole 143 respectively through the operation of the linear module 2 32.
[0050] It should be noted that in actual operation, in order to ensure the accuracy of insertion and the adjustability of the distance between folding insert 2 34 and folding insert 4 35, a combination frame 1 33 of different lengths can be installed on the slider of linear module 2 32. Folding insert 2 34 and folding insert 4 35 are respectively installed at both ends of the combination frame 1 33. The distance between the two can be adjusted by the length of the combination frame 1 33, and the accuracy of insertion can be ensured.
[0051] like Figure 13As shown, the folding mechanism 3 4 includes a linear module 3 42 mounted on a frame 3 41, and folding insert plates 3 45 and 5 44 respectively connected to both sides of the slider of the linear module 3 42. Specifically, folding insert plates 3 45 and 5 44 are adapted to the triple folding hole 133 and the quintuple folding hole 153 respectively, and can be inserted into or extended out of the triple folding hole 133 and the quintuple folding hole 153 respectively through the operation of the linear module 3 42.
[0052] Similarly, in order to ensure the accuracy of insertion and the adjustability of the distance between folding insert three 45 and folding insert five 44, a combination frame two 43 of different lengths can be installed on the slider of the linear module three 42. Folding insert three 45 and folding insert five 44 are respectively installed at both ends of the combination frame two 43. The distance between the two can be adjusted by the length of the combination frame two 43, and the accuracy of insertion can be ensured.
[0053] In the above embodiments, linear module 1 22, linear module 2 32 and linear module 3 42 are all of any one of the commonly available synchronous belt type, ball screw type or linear motor type.
[0054] like Figure 14 As shown, the folding mechanism 45 includes a linear drive 52 mounted on the frame 451, and a folding insert 653 connected to the movable end of the linear drive 52 and matching the six-fold hole 163. In this embodiment, the linear drive 52 is a cylinder. In use, when the movable end of the cylinder extends, it can drive the end of the folding insert 653 into the six-fold hole 163. Conversely, when the movable end of the cylinder retracts, the end of the folding insert 653 moves out of the six-fold hole 163.
[0055] The following is a detailed explanation using the folding and packaging process during the production of garbage bags as an example:
[0056] A single garbage bag is placed on the top surface of the support plate 111. By activating folding mechanism 2, the linear module 22 drives the folding insert 23 to insert into the first folding hole 112, causing the garbage bag to fold once and enter the first folding receiving groove 122. Then, folding mechanism 3 operates, causing the linear module 32 to drive the folding insert 34 to insert into the second folding hole 123 and extend into the second folding receiving groove 132, performing a second fold on the garbage bag. At this point, the garbage bag is located in the second folding receiving groove 132. Then, folding mechanism 4 is activated, causing the linear module 42 to drive the folding insert 45 to insert into the third folding hole 133 and extend into the third folding receiving groove 142, performing a second fold on the garbage bag. The bag is folded three times, at which point the garbage bag is located in the three-fold receiving groove 142. Then, the folding mechanism 2 3 is activated, so that the folding insert 4 35 is inserted into the four-fold hole 143 and extends into the four-fold receiving groove 152. The garbage bag is folded a fourth time after the three folds, at which point the garbage bag is located in the four-fold receiving groove 152. At the same time, the folding mechanism 3 4 is activated again, so that the folding insert 5 44 is inserted into the five-fold hole 153 and extends into the five-fold receiving groove 162. The garbage bag is folded a fifth time, at which point the garbage bag is located in the five-fold receiving groove 162. Finally, through the operation of the folding mechanism 4 5, the folding insert 6 53 passes through the six-fold hole 163, and the garbage bag is folded a sixth time and sent to the next process.
[0057] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
