Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments disclosed herein relate to the technical field of metal wire mesh processing equipment, and more specifically, to a leveling machine for metal wire mesh. Background Technology

[0002] Metal wire mesh has a wide range of applications, such as wall reinforcement and protective netting in the construction industry; filtration and screening in the industrial sector; and door and window protection and decoration in the home furnishing industry. Its flatness directly affects the quality and performance of the product. In the production process of metal wire mesh, the leveling process is a crucial step in ensuring its quality.

[0003] However, existing wire mesh leveling machines have significant drawbacks. Currently, most leveling machines rely primarily on pressure rollers to flatten the wire mesh. However, this method only utilizes the contact between the rollers and the wire mesh for leveling, resulting in an insufficient contact area. Due to this limited contact area, the wire mesh cannot receive comprehensive and uniform pressure during the leveling process. This leads to poor flatness of the wire mesh after processing, with potential unevenness such as bumps, depressions, or wrinkles.

[0004] For applications requiring extremely high flatness, such as high-precision filtration and electronic equipment shielding, existing wire mesh leveling machines are simply inadequate. Uneven wire mesh not only affects the product's appearance, reducing its aesthetic appeal, but also its functionality. For example, in filtration, uneven wire mesh may lead to inconsistent pore sizes, affecting filtration efficiency; in electronic equipment shielding, uneven wire mesh may fail to effectively block electromagnetic interference. Furthermore, poor flatness increases the difficulty of subsequent processing. For instance, when assembling wire mesh with other components, uneven surfaces affect the tightness and stability of the connection, reducing production efficiency and increasing production costs. Therefore, developing a wire mesh leveling machine that can increase the contact area with the wire mesh and improve the leveling effect is urgently needed. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the embodiments of this disclosure provide a wire mesh leveling machine, which solves the problem that the contact between the pressure roller and the wire mesh is used to achieve leveling in the prior art, resulting in an excessively small contact area. Due to the limited contact area, the wire mesh is difficult to receive comprehensive and uniform pressure during the leveling process.

[0006] According to one aspect, at least one embodiment of this disclosure provides a wire mesh leveling machine, comprising:

[0007] The frame and the top plate, wherein the top plate is fixed to the top of the frame;

[0008] A pair of guide rollers and a conveying and straightening assembly, wherein the guide rollers are rotatably connected to one end of the frame, and the conveying and straightening assembly is disposed thereon;

[0009] A leveling assembly, wherein the leveling assembly is disposed on the frame and the top plate;

[0010] The leveling assembly includes a pair of fixing plates, which are respectively fixed on both sides of the frame. Each pair of fixing plates is rotatably connected to a pressure plate on both opposite surfaces. A drive motor is provided on one side of the frame. A transmission wheel is provided on the output end of the drive motor and on the rotation shaft of one of the pressure plates. The transmission wheels are connected to each other by belt drive.

[0011] As a further technical solution, the output end of the drive motor is provided with a main shaft, the upper end of the main shaft is rotatably connected to the top plate, and the upper end of the rotating shaft of the other pressure plate and the upper end of the main shaft are both provided with a first gear.

[0012] As a further technical solution, the first gear is located at the top of the top plate, and a transmission shaft is rotatably connected to the surface of the top plate. A second gear is provided at both ends of the transmission shaft, and the second gear meshes with the first gear respectively.

[0013] As a further technical solution, the conveying and correction assembly includes an orientation frame, which is disposed inside the frame. Both sides of the orientation frame have openings, and both sides of the frame are connected to adjusting screws by threaded engagement.

[0014] As a further technical solution, one end of the adjusting screw is rotatably connected to a fixed frame, a pair of sliding rods are provided on the side surface of the fixed frame, the sliding rods are movably connected to the frame, and a straightening wheel is rotatably connected inside the fixed frame.

[0015] As a further technical solution, a pair of drive rollers are rotatably connected inside the frame. Each drive roller is provided with a synchronous gear at one end, and the synchronous gears mesh with each other. One of the drive rollers is controlled to rotate by a motor.

[0016] As a further technical solution, both the first gear and the second gear are bevel gears.

[0017] As a further technical solution, the surface of the straightening wheel is a concave structure, and the surface of the concave part of the straightening wheel is an inclined structure surface.

[0018] As a further technical solution, a pair of annular grooves are formed on the surface of the pressure plate.

[0019] The beneficial effects of the embodiments disclosed herein are as follows:

[0020] 1. In this disclosure, the beneficial effect of the leveling component is that the two pressure plates are located on the upper and lower sides of the wire mesh, respectively. The drive motor drives the pressure plates to rotate in opposite directions through belt and gear transmission, generating tension, which increases the contact and action range with the wire mesh. Compared with traditional pressure rollers, it can apply pressure more comprehensively and evenly, effectively improving the flatness of the wire mesh. The annular groove on the surface of the pressure plate can reasonably control the contact area, reduce unnecessary wear, extend the service life of the pressure plate, and reduce equipment maintenance costs.

[0021] 2. The beneficial effect of the conveying and straightening component in this disclosure is that the adjusting screw and slide bar can flexibly adjust the position of the straightening wheel, and correct the metal wire mesh that is deviated during conveying in real time, ensuring its straight conveying, improving the leveling accuracy, driving the roller to rotate synchronously through the synchronous gear, and stably pulling the metal wire mesh forward. Working in coordination with the leveling component, it ensures that the metal wire mesh is effectively leveled during stable conveying, improves production efficiency, and reduces leveling defects caused by unstable conveying.

[0033] Furthermore, in the description of this application, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0034] like Figures 1-4 As shown, it illustrates a wire mesh leveling machine according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, comprising:

[0035] The frame 1 and the top plate 2 are fixed to the top of the frame;

[0036] A pair of guide rollers 3 and a conveying and straightening assembly 5, wherein the guide rollers 3 are rotatably connected to one end of the frame 1, and the conveying and straightening assembly 5 is disposed in the frame 1;

[0037] Leveling component 4, which is disposed on the frame 1 and the top plate 2;

[0038] The leveling assembly 4 includes a pair of fixing plates 4-1, which are fixed to both sides of the frame. Pressure plates 4-2 are rotatably connected to both surfaces of the pair of fixing plates 4-1. A drive motor 4-3 is provided on one side of the frame 1. A transmission wheel 4-4 is provided on the output end of the drive motor 4-3 and on the rotating shaft of one of the pressure plates 4-2. The transmission wheels 4-4 are connected by a belt drive. A main shaft 4-5 is provided at the output end of the drive motor 4-3. The upper end of the main shaft 4-5 is rotatably connected to the top plate 2. A first gear 4-6 is provided on the upper end of the rotating shaft of the other pressure plate 4-2 and on the upper end of the main shaft 4-5. The first gear 4-6 is located at the top of the top plate 2. A transmission shaft 4-7 is rotatably connected to the surface of the top plate 2. Second gears 4-8 are provided at both ends of the transmission shaft 4-7, and the second gears 4-8 mesh with the first gears 4-6 respectively.

[0039] In some examples, a leveling component 4 is designed to ensure the flatness of the wire mesh during processing. This component includes a pair of fixed plates 4-1, respectively fixed on both sides of the frame. These fixed plates 4-1 serve as a support base. Each fixed plate 4-1 is rotatably connected to a pressure plate 4-2, which is located on the upper and lower sides of the wire mesh. These pressure plates are key components for achieving the leveling function. A drive motor 4-3, located on one side of the frame 1, is the power source for the entire component. A transmission wheel 4-4 is installed on both the output end of the drive motor 4-3 and the rotating shaft of one of the pressure plates 4-2. These two transmission wheels 4-4 are connected by a belt drive. When the drive motor 4-3 starts, its power is transmitted to the rotating shaft of one of the pressure plates 4-2 via the belt, causing the pressure plate 4-2 to begin rotating. At the same time, the main shaft 4-5, which is set at the output end of the drive motor 4-3, is rotatably connected to the top plate 2. The upper end of the rotating shaft of the other pressure plate 4-2 and the upper end of the main shaft 4-5 are both equipped with first gears 4-6, and these first gears 4-6 are located at the top of the top plate 2. The transmission shaft 4-7, which is rotatably connected to the surface of the top plate 2, is equipped with second gears 4-8 at both ends. These second gears 4-8 mesh with the first gears 4-6 respectively. Through this gear transmission structure, the power of the drive motor 4-3 can be transmitted to the other pressure plate 4-2, so that the other pressure plate 4-2 also starts to rotate. The rotation direction and speed of the two pressure plates 4-2 can be coordinated with each other. The pressure plate rotates in the opposite direction to the movement of the metal wire mesh, which can generate a pulling effect. In this way, it is not necessary to completely and simultaneously adhere to the two surfaces to achieve the leveling effect.

[0040] like Figures 1-4 As shown in the figure, the conveying and correcting assembly 5 in this embodiment includes an orientation frame 5-1, which is disposed inside the frame 1. The orientation frame 5-1 has openings 5-2 on both sides. Adjusting screws 5-3 are threadedly connected to both sides of the frame 1. A fixed frame 5-4 is rotatably connected to one end of the adjusting screw 5-3. A pair of sliding rods 5-5 are provided on the side surface of the fixed frame 5-4. The sliding rods 5-5 are movably connected to the frame 1. A correcting wheel 5-6 is rotatably connected inside the fixed frame 5-4. A pair of driving rollers 5-7 are rotatably connected inside the frame 1. A synchronous gear 5-8 is provided at one end of each driving roller 5-7. The synchronous gears 5-8 mesh with each other. One of the driving rollers 5-7 is controlled to rotate by a motor.

[0041] In some examples, during the processing of wire mesh, a conveying and straightening assembly 5 is designed to achieve a stable conveying effect by pulling the wire mesh. This assembly includes a directional frame 5-1 set inside the frame 1, with openings 5-2 at both ends of its surface. Adjusting screws 5-3 are threadedly connected to both sides of the frame 1, with one end rotatably connected to a fixed frame 5-4. When the adjusting screws 5-3 are rotated, the fixed frame 5-4 can move along the screw axis. A pair of sliding rods 5-5 on the side surface of the fixed frame 5-4 are movably connected to the frame 1, ensuring the smoothness and guidance of the fixed frame 5-4's movement and preventing it from shifting during movement. -4 The straightening wheel 5-6, which is rotatably connected inside the frame, can be adjusted in position by adjusting the screw 5-3 so that it presses against both sides of the wire mesh. When the wire mesh deviates during the conveying process, the straightening wheel 5-6 can correct its position in real time to ensure that the wire mesh is conveyed in a straight line. A pair of drive rollers 5-7, which are rotatably connected inside the frame 1, have synchronous gears 5-8 at one end that mesh with each other. One of the drive rollers 5-7 is controlled to rotate by a motor. When the motor starts, it drives the drive roller 5-7 to rotate. Through the meshing transmission of the synchronous gears 5-8, the other drive roller 5-7 rotates synchronously. The two drive rollers 5-7 together clamp the wire mesh and convey the wire mesh forward by friction.

[0042] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, both the first gear 4-6 and the second gear 4-8 are bevel gears.

[0043] In some examples, the first gear 4-6 and the second gear 4-8 are driven at 90° by bevel gears, causing the two pressure plates 4-2 to rotate in opposite directions.

[0044] For example, such as Figure 3 As shown, the surface of the straightening wheel 5-6 is a concave structure, and the surface of the concave part of the straightening wheel 5-6 is an inclined structure surface.

[0045] In some examples, the concave structure makes it easy to hold the wire mesh inside, achieving a stable and corrective effect.

[0046] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, a pair of annular grooves are formed on the surface of the pressure plate 4-2.

[0047] In some examples, the contact area between the pressure plate 4-2 and the wire mesh is controlled by an annular groove to avoid excessive contact area leading to wear.

[0048] In practical use: The wire mesh is introduced into the equipment through the inlet roller 3. The adjusting screw 5-3 is rotated, which drives the fixed frame 5-4 to move under the guidance of the slide rod 5-5, so that the straightening wheel 5-6 is adjusted to a suitable position. The motor of the drive roller 5-7 is started, and the drive roller 5-7 rotates synchronously through the synchronous gear 5-8, pulling the wire mesh forward. At the same time, the drive motor 4-3 is started. The transmission wheel 4-4 at the output end of the drive motor 4-3 drives a pressure plate 4-2 to rotate through the belt. Through the transmission of the main shaft 4-5, the first gear 4-6, the second gear 4-8 and the transmission shaft 4-7, the other pressure plate 4-2 rotates in the opposite direction to level the wire mesh. During the rotation, a pulling force is generated on the wire mesh, which enhances the leveling effect.

[0049] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this disclosure and are not intended to limit it. Although this disclosure has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this disclosure, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this disclosure.
