[0047] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During use, the workpiece 5 is supported and driven by the driven rollers 21 of the first support frame 2a and the second support frame 2b. Specifically, the drive mechanism 1 drives the workpiece 5 to rotate at a uniform speed, providing a uniform covering surface for the winding tape (non-woven tape). The feeding wheel 42 releases the winding tape, which is guided to the surface of the workpiece 5 and close to one end of the workpiece 5 via the transmission wheel set 43 (the winding tape is sequentially connected to the first driven wheel 431, the second driven wheel 432, the third driven wheel 433, the tension adjusting wheel 434, the fourth driven wheel 436, and the fifth driven wheel 437). The winding tape passes through the heater 44 to locally heat the tape, softening it to enhance adhesion. During this process, the tension adjusting wheel 434 can be rotated by the reduction motor 435 to dynamically adjust the tape tension, achieving smooth conveying in conjunction with the multi-stage driven wheels. The winding tape completes a spiral or ring-shaped wrapping as the workpiece rotates, forming a tight clamp. The sensing module 452 of the detection component 45 tracks the tape position in real time; if there is a deviation, it is detected by the active... The dynamic adjustment component 46 (the third motor 464 drives the short lead screw 463, which in turn causes the feeding wheel 42 on the support base 465 to make fine adjustments to its position) automatically corrects the position. The position of the first support frame 2a can be adjusted by the cooperation of the first base 32b, the first lead screw 33b, and the first motor 34b of the translation adjustment mechanism 3, thereby changing the distance relative to the second support frame 2b. This allows for the support and transmission of workpieces 5 of different lengths. The position of the feeding unit 4 can be adjusted by the cooperation of the second base 35b, the second lead screw 36b, and the second motor 37b of the translation adjustment mechanism 3, thereby changing the relative position of the winding tape on the workpiece 5 to achieve spiral wrapping and adapt to different workpiece specifications. The control box 6 integrates the signals of each module for pre-control. In the actual processing, the operator can coordinate the drive speed, heating temperature, tension parameters, and translation operation through the display panel and control keys on the main body 41 to ensure precise synchronization of the entire process and realize automated operation with one-button start and stop.
