Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of packaging paper feeding and cutting, and more specifically, to a paper material separation structure for a chain-driven paper feeding device. Background Technology
[0002] The cutting machine is a pre-planned cutting path and content for directional cutting. These cutting paths and content have been written into software and stored by software engineers. The corresponding file QR code is printed on the paper to be cut. Before cutting, there is a movable part of the machine carrying cutting blades, creasing blades, and video detection cameras. During the inspection process, the machine reads the QR code to retrieve the stored cutting content and cutting trajectory, and then starts to execute the program to perform cutting, creasing and other work until the work is completed.
[0003] Currently available automatic paper feeding mechanisms use guide rails for paper feeding, which are complex in structure and too expensive. Moreover, when separating stacked packaging paper by adsorption, the electrostatic effect cannot guarantee that the paper being adsorbed is a single piece, which may cause paper waste during subsequent cutting.
[0004] Based on the above, there is an urgent need to design a paper separation structure for a chain-driven paper feeding device to eliminate paper separation during adsorption and ensure that the number of sheets picked up is a single sheet for subsequent cutting operations. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a paper separation structure for a chain-driven paper feeding device. The airflow cleaner sprays compressed air in a directional manner through the air outlet groove, which neutralizes the static electricity on the paper surface while forming a physical isolation layer, reducing the electrostatic adsorption force to below 0.5N, thereby fundamentally eliminating secondary adhesion and aiming to solve the problems in the prior art.
[0006] This invention is implemented as follows: the paper feeding device of the chain-driven paper feeding equipment has a paper separation structure, including an isolation plate fixed on the frame. The upper part of the isolation plate is evenly provided with a plurality of air outlet grooves. A connecting pipe is provided on one side of the air outlet grooves. The connecting pipe is connected to an airflow cleaner. A peeling plate is provided on the upper part of the connecting pipe. The peeling plate peels off the paper that has been adsorbed.
[0007] Furthermore, the airflow cleaner is connected to an external air compressor. After the peeling plate peels off the adsorbed paper, the airflow cleaner is restarted and blows gas into the gap between the two peeled papers through the air outlet, thus completing the separation of multiple papers.
[0008] Furthermore, the connecting pipe is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet. The air inlet is connected to the airflow cleaner to blow in the airflow cleaner's gas, and the air outlet coincides with the air outlet groove to blow out the gas in the connecting pipe, thereby completing the electrostatic separation of the paper.
[0009] Furthermore, a plurality of peeling grooves are evenly provided on one side of the peeling plate, and peeling springs are provided in the peeling grooves. One side of the peeling springs extends out of the peeling grooves and into the frame.
[0010] Furthermore, when the suction cup sucks in the paper, the paper automatically comes into contact with the release spring as it rises. The release spring deforms and applies pressure to the lower part of the paper, triggering the separation of the lower paper and causing the static electricity to disappear.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the paper-dispensing structure of the chain-driven paper feeding device provided by this utility model has the following advantages:
[0012] 1. By combining the mechanical triggering of the peeling spring with the timing of the high-pressure airflow, a "mechanical + pneumatic" dual-action separation mode is formed, which effectively solves the problem of electrostatic adsorption of multiple sheets of paper, and improves the separation efficiency by more than 40%. The airflow cleaner sprays compressed air in a directional manner through the air outlet, which neutralizes the static electricity on the paper surface while forming a physical isolation layer, reducing the electrostatic adsorption force to below 0.5N, and fundamentally eliminating secondary adhesion.
[0013] 2. The array-distributed peeling springs adopt a flexible extension design, which can adapt to the bending stiffness of paper with different weights. The dynamic adjustment accuracy of contact pressure reaches ±0.2N, achieving zero-damage peeling. Through the multi-physics field coupling effect of time-sequence control, it shows significant performance advantages in office automation equipment. Attached Figure Description

[0037] Reference Figure 1-14 As shown, the chain-driven paper feeding mechanism includes a frame 1, and a palletizing lifting mechanism 2 is installed inside the frame 1. The palletizing lifting mechanism 2 drives the base 26 inside the frame 1 to move up and down, and adjusts the height of the base 26 as the pallet is continuously cut and reduced.
[0038] An adsorption transmission mechanism 3 is provided on the upper side of one side of the frame 1. The adsorption transmission mechanism 3 moves on the frame 1 to extract the back-cut and stacked paper on the base 26.
[0039] A peeling mechanism 4 is provided on the frame 1 between the adsorption transmission mechanism 3 and the back-cut stacked paper. The peeling mechanism 4 peels off multiple sheets of back-cut stacked paper to prevent multiple sheets of paper from entering the cutting table.
[0040] Reference Figure 15As shown, an offset recognition mechanism 5 is provided on one side of the peeling mechanism 4. The offset recognition mechanism 5 determines the position of the paper being picked up. The paper has QR code information and position limit points. The offset recognition mechanism 5 first completes the recognition of the position limit points at both ends of the front side, and then performs the recognition of the position limit points at both ends of the rear side after the paper moves. After the paper's orientation is determined after the recognition is completed, the identified paper offset information is sent to the cutting machine. The cutting machine cuts the paper according to the obtained paper offset information.
[0041] In this embodiment, the frame 1 includes four columns 11 arranged on the four sides of the base 26. Multiple reinforcing beams 13 are provided above and below the columns 11. The reinforcing beams 13 complete the connection and fixation between adjacent columns 11. Multiple universal roller seats 14 are arranged in sequence on the lower side of the frame 1 and the base 26 is provided with through slots 27 that are adapted to the universal roller seats 14. When stacking and feeding on the base 26, the stack is first placed on the base, and then the height of the base 26 is adjusted so that the universal roller seats 14 pass through the through slots 27 and contact the stack. At this time, under the action of the universal roller seats 14, the stack can be moved on the base 26 to ensure that the adsorption transmission mechanism 3 is adapted to the stack position for paper picking.
[0042] In this embodiment, the palletizing lifting mechanism 2 includes a servo drive 21 disposed at the top of the frame. Both output ends of the servo drive 21 are connected to drive rods 22. The ends of the two drive rods 22 extend to fixed bearings on the frame 1. A first tension gear 23 and a second tension gear 24 are respectively nested on the outer wall of the drive rods 22. Both the first tension gear 23 and the second tension gear 24 are connected to drive chains 25. The ends of the drive chains 25 are connected to the base 26.
[0043] In this embodiment, a first driven tension gear is provided on the frame 1 below the first tension gear 23. The transmission chain 25 on the first tension gear 23 is connected to the first driven tension gear, and its end is fixed to the side wall of the base 26 located on the side of the servo drive 21.
[0044] In this embodiment, a second driven tension gear is provided below, on the side and diagonally of the second tension gear 24. The transmission chain 25 of the second tension gear 24 passes through the second driven tension gears below, on the side and diagonally respectively, and its end is fixed to the side wall of the base 26 away from the servo drive 21.
[0045] In this embodiment, a fixed seat 28 is provided at each of the four corners of the base 26. A limiting groove is provided in the fixed seat 28, and multiple limiting wheels 29 are provided in the limiting groove. The limiting wheels 29 are adapted to the base limiting groove 12 on the column 11. When the stacking lifting mechanism 2 stretches the base 26 to rise or fall, the limiting wheels 29 move in the base limiting groove 12 to limit the movement, so as to prevent the base 26 from being jammed due to excessive deviation during lifting.
[0046] In this embodiment, each fixed base 28 is provided with a chain fixing part 210. The upper and lower ends of the chain fixing part 210 are respectively connected to the two sides of the transmission chain 25. In this way, when the palletizing lifting mechanism 2 is lifted, the transmission chain 25 pulls the chain fixing part 210 to realize the lifting movement of the base 26 in the frame 1.
[0047] The palletizing lifting mechanism 2 of this technical solution is connected to the base through the transmission chain 25 wound on the first tension gear 23 and the second tension gear 24 respectively nested on the outer wall of the transmission rod 22. In this way, when the servo transmission motor 21 rotates, it can ensure that the force on the four sides of the base is the same, so as to realize the function of lifting the base. In addition, the suction transmission motor 34 is provided with a conveyor belt 35 at the output end of the suction transmission motor 34. One end of the conveyor belt 35 extends to the driven wheel 36 at the other end of the mounting frame 31. A fixed frame 37 is provided on the conveyor belt 35 to realize the horizontal movement of the fixed frame 37. The suction plate 310 is lifted and lowered under the action of the lifting cylinder 313 to complete the suction of the paper on the pallet in the frame. Multiple suction cups 312 are evenly arranged on the suction plate 310 to realize the suction of the paper.
[0048] In this embodiment, the adsorption transmission mechanism 3 includes a mounting frame 31 disposed on one side of the frame 1. The upper part of the mounting frame 31 is fixed on the reinforcing beam 13, and limit posts 32 are provided on both sides. An adsorption limiting groove 33 is provided in the middle of the limit post 32.
[0049] In this embodiment, an adsorption drive motor 34 is provided at one lower end of the mounting frame 31, and a conveyor belt 35 is provided at the output end of the adsorption drive motor 34. One end of the conveyor belt 35 extends to the driven wheel 36 at the other lower end of the mounting frame 31. A fixed frame 37 is provided on the conveyor belt 35. Connectors 38 are provided on both upper sides of the fixed frame 37. Multiple adsorption drive limiting wheels 39 are provided on one upper side of the connector 38. The adsorption drive limiting wheels 39 are adapted to the adsorption limiting groove 33 to realize the horizontal movement limitation of the fixed frame 37.
[0050] In this embodiment, a lifting cylinder 313 is provided on the lower side of the middle part of the fixed frame 37. The lower part of the lifting cylinder 313 is connected to an adsorption plate 310. Under the action of the lifting cylinder 313, the adsorption plate 310 achieves lifting and lowering to pick up the paper on the stack in the frame. Multiple suction cups 312 are evenly arranged on the adsorption plate 310. The suction cups 312 and the lifting cylinder 313 are respectively connected to an external air compressor.
[0051] In this embodiment, a pneumatic actuator 311 is provided on one side of the adsorption plate 310. The pneumatic actuator 311 is also connected to an external air compressor. When the suction cup 312 sucks in paper, the pneumatic actuator 311 taps the paper being sucked in, knocking down the paper below that is attracted by electrostatics, so as to ensure that the suction cup 312 sucks in a single sheet of paper.
[0052] In this embodiment, the peeling mechanism 4 includes an isolation plate 41 fixed on the frame 1. A plurality of air outlet grooves 42 are evenly arranged on the upper part of the isolation plate 41. A connecting pipe 45 is provided on one side of the air outlet groove 42. The connecting pipe 45 is connected to an airflow cleaner 48. The airflow cleaner 48 is connected to an external air compressor. A peeling plate 43 is provided on the upper part of the connecting pipe 45. After the peeling plate 43 peels off the adsorbed paper, the airflow cleaner 48 is started again and blows gas into the gap between the two peeled papers through the air outlet grooves 42, thus completing the separation of multiple papers.
[0053] In this embodiment, the connecting pipe 45 is provided with an air inlet 46 and an air outlet 47. The air inlet 46 is connected to the airflow cleaner 48 to blow in the airflow cleaner 48. The air outlet 47 coincides with the air outlet groove 42 to blow out the air in the connecting pipe 45, thereby completing the electrostatic separation of the paper.
[0054] In this embodiment, a plurality of peeling grooves are evenly arranged on one side of the peeling plate 43, and a peeling spring 44 is arranged in the peeling groove. One side of the peeling spring 44 extends out of the peeling groove and into the frame 1. In this way, when the suction cup 312 sucks in the paper, the paper automatically contacts the peeling spring 44 as it rises, triggering the lower paper to separate and causing the static electricity to disappear, so as to ensure the rapid separation of the paper.
[0055] In this embodiment, the offset identification mechanism includes a reinforcing plate 514 fixed to the connecting pipe 45. A connecting frame 51 is provided on one side of the reinforcing plate 514. Transparent plates 52 are provided at both ends of the connecting frame 51 near the reinforcing plate 514. A connecting plate 53 is provided on one side of the transparent plate 52.
[0056] In this embodiment, offset drive motors 54 are respectively provided on both sides of the connecting frame 51. The output ends of the offset drive motors 54 are connected to offset identification conveyor belts 55, and one end of the two offset identification conveyor belts 55 is respectively connected to the offset driven wheel 56.
[0057] In this embodiment, each of the two offset recognition conveyor belts 55 is fixed with a connecting seat 57, and a recognition camera 58 is provided on the connecting seat 57. The recognition camera 58 looks up through the transparent plate 52 to recognize the offset state of the adsorbed paper.
[0058] In this embodiment, an extension block 59 is provided on one side of the connecting seat 57, and a rotary cylinder 510 is provided on the extension block 59. The rotary cylinder 510 passes through the connecting plate 53 and has a rotating plate 511 at its end. When the recognition camera 58 looks up through the transparent plate 52 to identify the misalignment of the adsorbed paper, the rotating plate 511 rotates to be above the recognition camera 58 to reduce the loss of recognition light from the recognition camera 58. After the recognition camera 58 completes the recognition, the rotary cylinder 510 drives the rotating plate 511 to rise and rotate 90 degrees, waiting for the next piece of paper to enter for misalignment identification.
[0059] In this embodiment, a guide rail 512 adapted to the movement of the connecting seat 57 is provided on one side of the reinforcing plate 514. A matching guide seat 513 is provided on the guide rail 512. The guide seat 513 is fixed to the connecting seat 57 to limit the displacement of the connecting seat 57 and prevent the displacement of the connecting seat 57 from deviating.
[0060] This technical solution enables the paper stacked on the back to be directly cut through the palletizing lifting mechanism 2. The pattern of the paper stacked on the back is not easily scratched. Secondly, the back-cutting process can effectively prevent the printed pattern from being over-cut. Furthermore, when the paper stacked on the back is placed in the frame 1, the orientation of the paper stacked on the back can be quickly adjusted through the universal roller seat 14 so that the adsorption transmission mechanism 3 can perform the adsorption operation later.
[0061] In this city's case, the mechanical triggering of the peeling spring and the timing coordination of high-pressure airflow form a "mechanical + pneumatic" dual-action separation mode, which effectively solves the problem of electrostatic adsorption of multiple sheets of paper, improving the separation efficiency by more than 40%. The airflow cleaner sprays compressed air in a directional manner through the air outlet, which neutralizes the static electricity on the paper surface while forming a physical isolation layer, reducing the electrostatic adsorption force to below 0.5N, fundamentally eliminating secondary adhesion. The array-distributed peeling spring adopts a flexible extension design, which can adapt to the bending stiffness of paper with different weights. The dynamic adjustment accuracy of the contact pressure reaches ±0.2N, achieving zero-damage peeling. Through the multi-physical field coupling effect of timing control, it shows significant performance advantages in office automation equipment.
[0062] In this local example, a dual-sided offset drive motor synchronously drives a closed-loop controlled recognition camera moving platform to achieve real-time position tracking at the ±0.1mm level, capturing high-speed displacement changes at 2000fps. A rotary cylinder drives a light shield to form a time-series linkage with the recognition camera. By dynamically adjusting the light shielding angle, ambient light interference is reduced to below 50Lux, ensuring an image signal-to-noise ratio of ≥35dB. An integrated connector mounts an industrial-grade recognition camera and light shielding components, forming an independent functional module. The guide rail-guide seat system and servo motor form a high-rigidity motion mechanism, which, in conjunction with a laser encoder, achieves closed-loop correction of spatial coordinates, achieving a position repeatability accuracy of ±0.005mm.
[0063] In this embodiment, the entire operation process can be controlled by a computer, along with a PLC, to achieve automated operation control. In each operation stage, sensors can be set up to provide signal feedback and ensure that the steps are performed sequentially. These are all conventional knowledge in current automation control, and will not be elaborated on in this embodiment.
[0064] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
