Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flexible material processing technology, specifically to a support and conveying device for flexible materials. Background Technology
[0002] Flexible materials are materials that are flexible and can withstand bending and deformation without being damaged, such as fabric. Such materials are generally processed using cutting machines. In existing technologies, grooves are usually made on the support and conveying surface of the machine tool, or two machine tools are spliced together to allow the bottom of the flexible material to have space for cutting.
[0003] Currently, the utility model patent with announcement number CN218779226U discloses a machine tool for cutting and conveying fabric. When the machine tool cuts the fabric, the lifting seat of the cutting device drives the cutting blade to descend to the clearance gap of the conveyor to cut the fabric. During the process, the V-shaped spring of the transition device moves downward into the clearance gap to avoid the cutting blade; thus, the fabric can be cut normally through the clearance gap.
[0004] Similar to existing technologies, the above-mentioned technical solutions also allow the cutting blade to work normally by increasing the space on the conveying surface for the blade to be inserted. Although this method can meet the needs of normal cutting to a certain extent, it is necessary to stop the flexible material being conveyed during cutting and wait for the cutting blade to complete the cutting before the conveying work can continue. This makes it inconvenient to carry out continuous conveying work during the production process, affecting the actual processing efficiency of the overall production line. In this regard, this application provides a flexible material support and conveying device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] Based on the above description, this utility model provides a support and conveying device for flexible materials to solve the problem in the prior art that when cutting flexible materials, it is necessary to add grooves to the conveying surface and require the flexible material to stop conveying and wait for the cutting work to be completed, which affects the continuity of conveying.
[0006] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: a flexible material support and conveying device, including a housing;
[0007] The housing is equipped with a conveying mechanism, which includes a transmission module, a guide module, and a support module.
[0008] The support module includes several mounting components and several multi-hair components that provide point support for the flexible material. The multi-hair components are located on the top of the corresponding mounting components, and the mounting components are arranged side by side at equal intervals on the transmission module.
[0009] The transmission module drives the mounting component to move along the transmission trajectory of the transmission module, and the transmission module supports and transports the flexible material through the mounting component and the multi-fiber component.
[0010] Through the above technical solution, the transmission module drives the multi-haired parts to move along the transmission trajectory through the mounting parts. Under the support of the continuously conveyed and parallel-arranged multi-haired parts, the flexible material placed on top of the multi-haired parts can achieve point support and linkage conveying effect. Moreover, the point support method will not affect the normal cutting work of the cutting blade, and there is no need to stop the conveying and wait.
[0011] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.
[0012] Furthermore, the mounting component includes a mounting steel with an opening at the top, and a connecting plate is fixed inside the mounting steel;
[0013] The bottom of the mounting steel has two mounting holes, and the bottom of the connecting plate has two connecting holes. The centers of the mounting holes and the corresponding connecting holes are located on the same axis.
[0014] The above technical solution facilitates the installation of subsequent connection structures through mounting holes and connecting holes.
[0015] Furthermore, the multi-hair component includes a fixing plate and a plurality of supporting hairs, the supporting hairs being distributed in a dotted pattern and fixed to the top of the fixing plate;
[0016] The fixing plate is detachably connected to the top of the mounting steel, and the support is made of an elastic material with support capabilities.
[0017] The above technical solution enables the support fibers to provide point-like support for flexible materials.
[0018] Furthermore, the transmission module includes two shafts rotatably connected to the housing via bearings, two sprockets are sleeved on the outer side of the shafts, and a chain meshes between the outer sides of the corresponding two sprockets;
[0019] A motor is located on the back of the housing, and the output shaft of the motor passes through the back of the housing and is fixedly connected to one end of the back of the left shaft.
[0020] Several mounting plates are fixed to the outside of the chain, and the mounting plates have connection holes. A vacuum negative pressure mechanism is provided inside the housing between the two shafts on opposite sides.
[0021] The above technical solution enables the sprocket to drive the corresponding chain for transmission; the vacuum negative pressure mechanism can adsorb and position the flexible material above through the gap between the connected mounting steel.
[0022] Furthermore, the mounting steel is disposed between the tops of the corresponding two mounting plates via a connector that passes through the connecting hole, the mounting hole, and the connecting hole;
[0023] The connector is a connection structure consisting of rivets or bolts and nuts;
[0024] The guide module includes several support steels fixed inside the housing. The support steels are located between opposite sides of the left and right sprockets, and several smooth strips are provided between the tops of the support steels.
[0025] The top of the first supporting steel on the left is provided with two auxiliary guides.
[0026] The above technical solution allows for the positioning of the mounting steel between the outer sides of the two corresponding mounting pieces through the connection of rivets or bolts and nuts.
[0027] Furthermore, the auxiliary guide includes a guide rod fixed to the top of the first support steel on the left, and several support wheels rotatably connected to the outside of the guide rod via a rotating shaft;
[0028] The guide rod consists of an arc-shaped rod and a straight rod fixed to the right end of the arc-shaped rod. The arc-shaped rod is located outside the left shaft, and the center of the arc-shaped rod and the center of the left shaft are on the same axis.
[0029] The bottom of the mounting steel is in contact with the top of the flow strip and the support wheel.
[0030] Through the above technical solution, the flow strip can support the supporting steel located above, making its movement more stable and smooth; the combination of guide rod and support wheel can provide a certain degree of guidance and support for the supporting steel that is making arc-shaped movements.
[0031] Furthermore, the outer side of the housing is also provided with a cutting module for cutting flexible materials, and the cutting module is located above the support hair.
[0032] The above technical solution enables the cutting module to perform normal cutting of flexible materials placed on top of the support fibers.
[0033] Furthermore, transition pieces are provided on both the left and right sides of the top of the housing;
[0034] The transition component includes a transition plate fixed inside the housing, and two transition plates each have equally spaced transition teeth on opposite sides.
[0035] Through the above technical solution, the transition component can provide transitional support for the flexible material that detaches from the support hair and moves above the support hair.
[0036] Furthermore, the transition tooth engages with the support hair, with one end of the transition tooth near the support hair inserted obliquely downward into the support hair.
[0037] The above technical solution allows the transition teeth to move to the bottom of the flexible material, thereby smoothly supporting the flexible material on top.
[0038] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial technical effects:
[0039] 1. This application can ensure continuous feeding of flexible materials while allowing the cutting blade to perform cutting work normally, without stopping the feeding of flexible materials to wait for the cutting to be completed, thereby ensuring the efficiency of cutting and feeding, and thus improving the efficiency of the entire processing flow, which is conducive to the efficient operation of the processing production process.
[0040] 2. This application has a simple structure and only needs to be used with common transmission components to achieve the effect of support and transportation. It does not require too many structural linkages, thus avoiding complex maintenance in the later stage, reducing the actual use cost, and is simple and convenient to use, with high practical value.

[0054] To facilitate understanding of this application, a more complete description will be provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate embodiments of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the disclosure of this application will be thorough and complete.
[0055] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.
[0056] Example: A flexible material support and conveying device includes a housing 1; a conveying mechanism 2 is provided inside the housing 1, the conveying mechanism 2 includes a transmission module, a guide module and a support module; the support module includes several mounting parts and several multi-pile parts that provide point support for the flexible material, the multi-pile parts are located on the top of the corresponding mounting parts, and the mounting parts are arranged side by side at equal distances on the transmission module; the transmission module drives the mounting parts to move according to the transmission trajectory of the transmission module, and the transmission module supports and conveys the flexible material through the mounting parts and multi-pile parts.
[0057] Through the above technical solution, the transmission module drives the multi-haired parts to move along the transmission trajectory through the mounting parts. Under the support of the continuously conveyed and parallel-arranged multi-haired parts, the flexible material placed on top of the multi-haired parts can achieve point support and linkage conveying effect. Moreover, the point support method will not affect the normal cutting work of the cutting blade, and there is no need to stop the conveying and wait.
[0058] refer to Figure 3 The mounting component includes a mounting steel 41 with an open top, and a connecting plate 42 fixed inside the mounting steel 41. The bottom of the mounting steel 41 has two mounting holes 46, and the bottom of the connecting plate 42 has two connecting holes 45. The centers of the mounting holes 46 and the corresponding connecting holes 45 are located on the same axis. The mounting holes 46 and the connecting holes 45 facilitate the installation of subsequent connection structures.
[0059] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The multi-hair component includes a fixed plate 43 and several supporting hairs 44. The supporting hairs 44 are distributed in a dotted pattern and fixed to the top of the fixed plate 43. The fixed plate 43 is detachably connected to the top of the mounting steel 41. The supporting hairs 44 are made of elastic material with supporting capacity, and can provide point support for the flexible material. Specifically, the supporting hairs 44 can be made of rubber or polypropylene material, so that they have a certain supporting capacity and can also make appropriate elastic displacement. This allows them to be separated by the relatively moving cutting blade, so that the cutting blade can directly cut the flexible material placed on the top of the supporting hairs 44 without additional grooving or stopping the transmission process.
[0060] It should be noted that the end of the support hair 44 is a rough flat surface with a large coefficient of friction, which makes it difficult for the flexible material placed on top of it to slip.
[0061] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The transmission module includes two shafts 21 rotatably connected to the housing 1 via bearings. Two sprockets 22 are sleeved on the outer side of the shafts 21, and chains 23 mesh between the outer sides of the corresponding two sprockets 22. A motor 24 is provided on the back of the housing 1. The output shaft of the motor 24 passes through the back of the housing 1 and is fixedly connected to one end of the back of the left shaft 21. This allows the sprockets 22 to drive the corresponding chains 23 for transmission.
[0062] In use, the motor 24 drives the left shaft 21 to rotate, and the two chains 23 are driven synchronously by the meshing transmission of the sprocket 22 and the chain 23.
[0063] It should be noted that the housing 1 is equipped with a vacuum negative pressure mechanism located between the two shafts 21 on opposite sides. The vacuum negative pressure mechanism can adsorb and position the flexible material above through the gap between the connected mounting steels 41. Specifically, the vacuum negative pressure mechanism can evacuate air from the upper part of the housing 1 to achieve a negative pressure state, so as to adsorb and position the flexible material through the gap between the mounting steels 41.
[0064] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 Several mounting plates 25 are fixed on the outer side of the chain 23. The mounting plates 25 have connecting holes. The mounting steel 41 is positioned between the tops of two corresponding mounting plates 25 through a connector that passes through the connecting hole 45, the mounting hole 46 and the connecting hole. The connector is a connection structure of rivets or bolts and nuts. Through the connection of rivets or bolts and nuts, the mounting steel 41 can be positioned between the outer sides of two corresponding mounting plates 25.
[0065] In use, the mounting steel 41 is positioned between the outer sides of the corresponding two mounting plates 25 by means of rivets or bolts and nuts, so that the mounting steel 41 is located on the outside of the chain 23, and thus the mounting steel 41 can move together with the chain 23; at the same time, the mounting steel 41 should be arranged in a side by side at equal distances so that the mounting steel 41 can be combined to form a conveying plane, so that the support 44 can support and convey the flexible material placed on top of it.
[0066] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 The guide module includes several support steels 31 fixed inside the housing 1. The support steels 31 are located between opposite sides of the left and right sprockets 22. Several flow strips 32 are provided between the tops of the support steels 31. Two auxiliary guides are provided on the top of the first support steel 31 on the left. The auxiliary guides include a guide rod 33 fixed to the top of the first support steel 31 on the left, and several support wheels 34 rotatably connected to the outside of the guide rod 33 via a rotating shaft. The guide rod 33 consists of an arc-shaped rod and a straight rod fixed to the right end of the arc-shaped rod. The arc-shaped rod is located outside the left shaft 21, and the center of the arc-shaped rod is on the same axis as the center of the left shaft 21. The bottom of the mounting steel 41 is in contact with the top of the flow strips 32 and the support wheels 34. The flow strips 32 can support the support steel 31 located above, making its movement more stable and smooth. The combination of the guide rods 33 and the support wheels 34 can provide a certain guiding support for the support steel 31 that is moving in an arc shape.
[0067] refer to Figure 1 The outer side of the housing 1 is also provided with a cutting module 5 for cutting flexible materials. The cutting module 5 is located above the support hair 44, so that the cutting module 5 can normally cut the flexible material placed above the support hair 44.
[0068] It should be noted that the cutting module 5 is a component on an existing cutting bed for cutting flexible materials. It uses a reciprocating cutting blade to cut the relatively moving flexible material, which is a publicly available technology and will not be described in detail. Furthermore, all electrical devices mentioned in this article are electrically connected to the main controller and power supply. The main controller can be a PLC controller, which can be implemented through simple programming by those skilled in the art. The electrical connection technology is a publicly available technology and will not be described in detail.
[0069] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 7 The top left and right sides of the housing 1 are provided with transition pieces 6; the transition pieces 6 include transition plates 61 fixed inside the housing 1, and the two transition plates 61 are provided with transition teeth 62 arranged at equal intervals on opposite sides; the transition pieces 6 can provide transition support for flexible materials that are detached from the support hair 44 and move above the support hair 44.
[0070] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 7 The transition tooth 62 engages with the support hair 44, with one end of the transition tooth 62 inserted obliquely downward into the support hair 44; allowing the transition tooth 62 to move to the bottom of the flexible material, thereby smoothly supporting the flexible material on top.
[0071] In use, when moving from the front conveying structure to the support bristle 44, the material moves directly to the support bristle 44 through the corresponding transition plate 61 and transition teeth 62; when moving from the support bristle 44 to the rear conveying structure, the bottom of the flexible material is lifted by the transition teeth 62 inserted into the support bristle 44, so that the flexible material is relatively smoothly conveyed to the transition plate 61.
[0072] 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, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
