Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of production equipment for this book, and specifically to a coil binding machine. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, loose-leaf binding can be divided into perfect binding, staple binding, and spiral binding. Spiral binding typically involves threading the binding loop through the binding hole in the book, allowing the loop to hook onto the book and prevent loose pages from falling out. If the binding loop is made of metal, during binding, the binding loop is first threaded through the binding hole in the book, and then a pressing device is used to press the binding loop together to seal the binding.
[0003] Traditionally, the binding coils on booklets are mostly single coil structures. The length of the binding coil is slightly less than the length of the booklet when folded. The binding coil is long, consumes more materials, and has a high cost. In addition, the booklet binding process often adopts semi-automated production methods, resulting in low production efficiency and high production costs for enterprises. Utility Model Content

[0038] like Figure 1-10As shown, this utility model discloses a coil binding machine, including a frame 10. The frame 10 is provided with a feeding module 20, a guiding module 30, a cutting module 40, a transferring module 50, a pressing module 60, a flipping module 70, and a stacking module 80.
[0039] The feeding module 20 can transport the coil strip 90 to the guiding module 30.
[0040] The cutting module 40 can cut the coil strip 90 into coil segments 91, and the coil segments 91 can slide along the guide module 30 to the pressing module 60.
[0041] The transfer module 50 can sequentially transfer the coil segment 91 and the booklet 100 hanging on at least two coil segments 91 to the pressing module 60 and the flipping module 70. The booklet 100 is hung on at least two adjacent coil segments 91 in an upright position, and the front cover 101 and the back cover 102 on the booklet 100 are located on the same side of the booklet 100. The length of the coil segment 91 is less than the length of the booklet 100 when it is folded.
[0042] The pressing module 60 can press the coil segment 91 to close the coil segment 91. The pressing module 60 is a mature existing technology, and its specific structure will not be described in detail.
[0043] The flipping module 70 can flip the front cover 101 or the back cover 102 so that the front cover 101 and the back cover 102 are located on opposite sides of the book 100, and transfer the book 100 to the stacking module 80.
[0044] The stacking module 80 can stack the booklets 100 alternately in a flat position so that the coil segments 91 on two adjacent booklets 100 are arranged opposite each other.
[0045] The feeding module 20 has an unwinding reel 21, a gear, and a feeding motor 23. The unwinding reel 21 can output coil strips 90. The feeding motor 23 drives the first gear 22 to rotate so that the first gear 22 conveys the coil strips 90 to the cutting module 40.
[0046] The guiding module 30 includes a first guide plate 31, a second guide plate 32, and a third guide plate 33. The first guide plate 31 and the second guide plate 32 are spaced apart. The third guide plate 33 is located below the first guide plate 31 and the second guide plate 32. Specifically, the lower end of the first guide plate 31 and the third guide plate 33 are integrally formed. The end of the third guide plate 33 away from the first guide plate 31 is spaced apart from the lower end of the second guide plate 32. The first guide plate 31, the second guide plate 32, and the third guide plate... An L-shaped guide groove 34 is formed between the coil segments 33 to allow the coil segment 91 to slide. During operation, the first arc-shaped portion 911 on the coil segment 91 can slide along the L-shaped guide groove 34, and the second arc-shaped portion 912 on the coil segment 91 extends out of the L-shaped guide groove 34. The second arc-shaped portion 912 can pass through the binding hole on the booklet 100 so that the booklet 100 can be hung on the coil segment 91. By setting the L-shaped guide groove 34, the coil segment 91 is guided, so that the linear sliding stability of the coil segment 91 and the booklet 100 hanging on the coil segment 91 is good.
[0047] A fourth guide plate 35 is provided inside the L-shaped guide groove 34. The fourth guide plate 35 extends along the conveying direction of the coil segment 91. When the coil segment 91 moves along the L-shaped guide groove 34, the first arc-shaped portion 911 on the coil segment 91 slides in contact with the lower surface of the fourth guide plate 35. By providing the fourth guide plate 35, during operation, the first arc-shaped portion 911 on the coil segment 91 slides in contact with the lower surface of the fourth guide plate 35. Furthermore, by utilizing the cooperation of the first guide plate 31 and the third guide plate 33, the first arc-shaped portion 911 has three fulcrums, thereby preventing the coil segment 91 from rotating circumferentially and enabling the coil segment 91 to slide stably along the L-shaped guide groove 34.
[0048] The frame 10 is equipped with an adjustment assembly 11 for vertically adjusting the fourth guide plate 35. The adjustment assembly 11 includes an adjustment component 111, a swing component 112, and a lifting component 113. The swing component 112 is rotatably connected to the frame 10 via a rotating shaft 1121. The axis of the rotating shaft 1121 is parallel to the extension direction of the L-shaped guide groove 34. The adjustment component 111 can drive the swing component 112 to swing, so that the swing component 112 drives the lifting component 113 to move up and down. The lifting component 113 can drive the fourth guide plate 35 to move up and down. By setting the adjustment assembly 11 for vertically adjusting the fourth guide plate 35, the tightness between the fourth guide plate 35 and the coil segment 91 can be adjusted, so that the movement of the coil segment 91 is more stable, and it can also adapt to coil segments 91 of different sizes, with good versatility.
[0049] The adjusting component 111 is a hand-tightening bolt, which is threadedly connected to the frame 10. The hand-tightening bolt and the swing component 112 are connected by a rack 114 and a second gear (not shown) through a transmission. The second gear is installed on the hand-tightening bolt. The swing component 112 has several radially extending swing arms 1122 spaced apart. The lifting component 113 has a connecting rod corresponding to each swing arm 1122. The upper end of the connecting rod is movably connected to the swing arm 1122, and the lower end of the connecting rod is connected to the fourth guide plate 35. The connecting rod is slidably connected to the frame 10. During adjustment, rotating the hand-tightening bolt in the forward direction drives the rack 114 to move downward through the second gear. The rack 114 drives the swing component 112 to rotate clockwise. The swing component 112 drives the lifting component 113 to move downward through the swing arms 1122. The lifting component 113 drives the fourth guide plate 35 to move downward. Rotating the hand-tightening bolt in the reverse direction adjusts the fourth guide plate 35 to move upward.
[0050] The cutting module 40 is located on one side of the guide module 30. The cutting module 40 has a knife holder 41, a cutter 42, and a punching drive mechanism 43. The knife holder 41 is located on the frame 10. The cutter 42 is slidably mounted on the knife holder 41. The punching drive mechanism 43 can drive the cutter 42 to extend and retract through the L-shaped guide groove 34 so that the cutter 42 punches the coil strip 90 to form a coil segment 91. The direction of movement of the cutter 42 is perpendicular to the direction of movement of the coil segment 91. The punching method makes it easy to cut the metal coil strip 90, which is highly efficient.
[0051] The blade holder 41 is provided with a pressure-bearing part 411, which is located on the side of the L-shaped guide groove 34 near the second guide plate 32. The pressure-bearing part 411 is provided with a positioning slide groove 412, and the cutter 42 is provided with a positioning part 421. The positioning part 421 is movably inserted into the positioning slide groove 412. When punching the coil strip 90, the cutter 42 extends into the L-shaped guide groove 34 to punch the coil strip 90, and the positioning part 421 extends into the positioning slide groove 412. The pressure-bearing part 411 can withstand the pressure of the coil strip 90 when it is punched. By setting the positioning part 421 and the positioning slide, the cooperation of the two makes the extension and retraction of the cutter 42 stable, thereby making the punching accuracy and effect of the cutter 42 better.
[0052] The first guide plate 31 is provided with a clearance groove (not shown), which allows the cutter 42 to extend into the L-shaped guide groove 34.
[0053] The punching drive mechanism 43 has a first rotary drive unit 431, an eccentric wheel 432, and a push arm 433. The eccentric wheel 432 is rotatably mounted on the frame 10.

The first rotary drive unit 431 can be a rotary motor or a rotary cylinder.
[0054] The material transfer module 50 has a first material feeding component 51, a second material feeding component 52 and a third material feeding component 53. The first material feeding component 51 can move multiple coil segments 91 to slide synchronously on the guide module 30. The second material feeding component 52 can move the book 100 to the pressing module 60. The third material feeding component 53 can move the book 100 to the flipping module 70.
[0055] Specifically, the first feeding assembly 51 is located above the second feeding assembly 52, and the third feeding assembly 53 is located below the pressing module 60. The first feeding assembly 51 has a synchronous belt 511 and a first motor 512 that drives the synchronous belt 511 to rotate. The synchronous belt 511 has a plurality of first feeding blocks (not shown) spaced apart on its circumferential outer wall. The second feeding assembly 52 has a chain 521 and a second motor 522. The chain 521 has a plurality of second feeding blocks spaced apart. The third feeding assembly 53... The material assembly 53 has a third material feeding block 531 and a material feeding drive module 532. An L-shaped support plate 12 is provided below the third material feeding block 531. The booklet 100 can slide on the L-shaped support plate 12. The material feeding drive module 532 can drive the third material feeding block 531 to move so that the third material feeding block 531 can move the booklet 100 to the flipping module 70. Specifically, the third material feeding block 531 can move along the conveying direction parallel to the booklet 100 and along the conveying direction perpendicular to the booklet 100.
[0056] The flipping module 70 has a material picking and flipping component 71 and a directional conveying component 72. The material picking and flipping component 71 can pick up the front cover 101 or the back cover 102, and after flipping the picked-up front cover 101 or the back cover 102 at a certain angle, transfer the book 100 to the directional conveying component 72. During operation, the front cover 101 picked up by the material picking and flipping component 71 is flipped 180 degrees counterclockwise. The directional conveying component 72 can adjust the front cover 101 and the back cover 102 to be located on opposite sides of the book 100, and transfer the book 100 to the stacking module 80.
[0057] The material picking and flipping assembly 71 includes a material picking drive module 711, a second rotary drive unit 712, and a suction cup 713. The second rotary drive unit 712 is mounted on the material picking drive module 711, and the suction cup 713 is mounted on the drive end of the second rotary drive unit 712. The suction cup 713 can adsorb the front cover 101. The material picking drive module 711 can drive the second rotary drive unit 712 to move relative to the directional conveying assembly 72. The second rotary drive unit 712 drives the adsorbed front cover 101 through the suction cup 713. Specifically, the material picking drive module 711 includes a material picking seat 7111 and a material picking drive unit 7112. The material picking seat 7111 is slidably connected to the frame 10. The second rotary drive unit 712 is mounted on the material picking seat 7111, and the suction cup 713 is connected to the drive end of the second rotary drive unit 712. The second rotary drive unit 712 can be a motor or a rotary cylinder.
[0058] The directional conveying assembly 72 has a first conveyor belt 721 and a first crossbar 722 and a second crossbar 723 disposed above the first conveyor belt 721. The first crossbar 722 and the second crossbar 723 are spaced apart along the conveying direction of the first conveyor belt 721 to form an aisle 724. The aisle 724 allows the book 100 to be placed on the first conveyor belt 721. The width of the aisle 724 is less than the maximum width of the book 100 when unfolded. The width of the aisle 724 is defined as the width of the first crossbar 722 and the second crossbar 723. The spacing between 723 is defined as the maximum width of the booklet 100 when unfolded, between the front cover 101 and the rear cover 102 when the booklet 100 is in a parallel state. Preferably, the width of the aisle 724 is less than half of the maximum width of the booklet 100 when unfolded. The first conveyor belt 721 extends obliquely upward. During operation, the suction cup 713 adsorbs the front cover 101. Driven by the material picking drive module 711, the suction cup 713 drives the booklet 100 to move towards the aisle 724. In the middle, the rear cover 102 first abuts against the first crossbar 722, causing the rear cover 102 to rotate clockwise upwards. Then, the suction cup 713 releases the booklet 100, placing the booklet 100 from the passageway 724 onto the first conveyor belt 721. The edge of the booklet 100 near the coil section 91 contacts the first conveyor belt 721, and the rear cover 102 slides off the first crossbar 722. The front cover 101 abuts against the second crossbar 723. The first conveyor belt 721 exerts a traction force on the booklet 100 during transport. The limiting function of the first crossbar 722 and the second crossbar 723 ensures that during the movement of the booklet 100 on the first conveyor belt 721, the rear cover 102 detaches from the first crossbar 722 and naturally flips downward and adheres to the first conveyor belt 721. The front cover 101 detaches from the second crossbar 723 and also naturally flips downward. Ultimately, the front cover 101 and the rear cover 102 are located on opposite sides of the booklet 100, and when the booklet 100 is conveyed to the stacking module 80, the orientation of the coil segment 91 on the booklet 100 remains consistent.
[0059] The stacking module 80 has a flipping mechanism 81 and a blocking mechanism 82. The flipping mechanism 81 is located on one side above the blocking mechanism 82, and a receiving groove 83 is provided on one side below the blocking mechanism 82. The blocking mechanism 82 can block or release the booklet 100 from entering the receiving groove 83. The flipping mechanism 81 and the blocking mechanism 82 work together to flip the booklet 100 so that it enters the receiving groove 83. Specifically, a second conveyor belt 84 is provided between the stacking module 80 and the flipping module 70. The booklets 100 output from the second conveyor belt 84 pass through the flipping mechanism 81 and the blocking mechanism 82 in sequence. By setting the flipping mechanism 81 and the blocking mechanism 82, the booklets 100 can be automatically stacked alternately. The alternately stacked booklets 100 occupy little space and are neatly stacked.
[0060] The stacking module 80 is connected to an output mechanism 85, which can remove the stacked book 100 from the stacking module 80.
[0061] The working principle of this utility model:
[0062] The coil strip 90 is output from the unwinding reel 21, and the feeding motor 23 drives the first gear 22 to rotate, and the first gear 22 conveys the coil strip 90 into the L-shaped guide groove 34.
[0063] The punching drive mechanism 43 drives the cutter 42 to extend into the L-shaped guide groove 34 to punch the coil strip 90 into coil segment 91;
[0064] The first feeding component 51 moves multiple coil segments 91 synchronously along the L-shaped guide groove 34 away from the cutting module 40 for a distance. The worker aligns the binding hole on the booklet 100 with the second arc-shaped part 912 on the two adjacent coil segments 91, and passes the second arc-shaped part 912 through the binding hole so that the booklet 100 is hung on the two adjacent coil segments 91. At this time, the front cover 101 and the back cover 102 are both located on one side of the booklet 100, and the front cover 101 is located outside the back cover 102.
[0065] The second feeding component 52 moves the book 100 to the pressing module 60. The coil segment 91 at the upper end of the book 100 is disengaged from the L-shaped guide groove 34, and the lower end of the book 100 is supported on the L-shaped support plate 12.
