Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fabric or garment conveying technology, and specifically to an automatic material stacking machine. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial production, after fabrics or fashion items undergo multiple processes such as shaping, cutting, and dyeing, they are transported by machines to a conveyor belt, which then transports them one by one to the next process. Because each workstation works synchronously during production, the machines continuously feed products onto the conveyor belt, and the conveyor belt continuously transports products to the next workstation. This results in the fabrics or fashion items being transported to the next production process on the conveyor belt being distributed individually in a straight line. However, when packaging or selling the fabrics or fashion items to the buyers, multiple items often need to be stacked together, requiring subsequent manual stacking. This not only increases labor costs but also significantly reduces production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model provides an automatic stacking machine, which solves the technical problem of low production efficiency and high labor costs caused by the need for manual stacking of fabrics or fashion products after production before proceeding to the next step.

[0004] An automatic stacking machine includes an inlet mechanism for inleting products, a conveyor mechanism for conveying products, and a conveyor belt for receiving products. The conveyor mechanism is located downstream of the inlet mechanism. The machine is characterized in that it further includes a pressing mechanism that cooperates with the conveyor belt to stack products to a specified quantity. The pressing mechanism is located downstream of the conveyor mechanism, and the conveyor belt is located downstream of the pressing mechanism.

[0005] Furthermore, the feeding mechanism includes a first rubber roller, a second rubber roller, and a support. The first rubber roller and the second rubber roller are respectively connected to the support, and the first rubber roller and the second rubber roller cooperate with each other.

[0006] Furthermore, the transmission mechanism includes a support frame, a guide plate, a drive mechanism, a first belt conveyor mechanism, and a second belt conveyor mechanism. The guide plate cooperates with the output end of the inlet mechanism and is connected to the support frame. The first belt conveyor mechanism cooperates with the second belt conveyor mechanism. The guide plate cooperates with both the first and second belt conveyor mechanisms. The drive mechanism is connected to both the first and second belt conveyor mechanisms.

[0007] Furthermore, the drive mechanism includes a drive component, a connecting shaft, and a gear. The connecting shaft passes through the support frame and rotates with the support frame. One end of the connecting shaft passing through the support frame is connected to the drive component, and the other end is connected to the gear.

[0008] Furthermore, both the first belt conveyor mechanism and the second belt conveyor mechanism include a support rod, a pulley, and a belt. The connecting shaft 8 passes through the pulley and is connected to the pulley. One end of the support rod is connected to the support frame, and the other end of the support rod is connected to the pulley. The belt is connected to the pulley.

[0009] Furthermore, the pressing mechanism includes a pressing plate, a cylinder, a connecting plate, and a support plate. The pressing plate is connected to the cylinder, the cylinder is fixed to the connecting plate, and the support plate cooperates with the output end of the transmission mechanism. There are multiple support plates arranged at intervals, and a clearance opening is formed between two adjacent support plates. The pressing plate cooperates with the clearance opening, and the clearance opening is located above the conveyor belt.

[0010] In this invention, the feeding mechanism feeds in the finished fabric or fashion products, which are then conveyed by the transmission mechanism to the pressing mechanism. The products fall onto spaced support plates, where a cylinder drives a pressing plate to press down, pushing the products through the clearance opening between adjacent spaced support plates onto the conveyor belt. The pressing plate then rises and resets. As the next product falls onto the support plate, the pressing plate continues to press down, then rises and resets again, repeating this cycle until a specified number of products are stacked. Finally, the conveyor belt transports the stacked products. Because the pressing mechanism works in conjunction with the conveyor belt—that is, the pressing mechanism presses the products onto the conveyor belt, ensuring a specified number of products are stacked before the conveyor belt begins operation to transport the stacked products to the next production process—the manual stacking step is eliminated, resulting in improved production efficiency and reduced labor costs.

[0017] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, an automatic stacking machine includes an inlet mechanism for inleting products, a conveyor mechanism for conveying products, and a conveyor belt 1 for receiving products. The conveyor mechanism is located downstream of the inlet mechanism. The machine also includes a pressing mechanism that works with the conveyor belt 1 to stack products to a specified quantity. The pressing mechanism is located downstream of the conveyor mechanism, and the conveyor belt 1 is located downstream of the pressing mechanism. The inlet mechanism, conveyor mechanism, and pressing mechanism are all mounted on a base plate.

[0019] like Figure 2 As shown, the feeding mechanism includes a first rubber roller 2, a second rubber roller 3, and a support 4. The first rubber roller 2 and the second rubber roller 3 are respectively connected to the support 4, and the first rubber roller 2 and the second rubber roller 3 are used to feed the product. A first gear transmission mechanism is connected to the first rubber roller 2 and the second rubber roller 3 respectively. The first gear transmission mechanism is connected to the main drive mechanism (not shown in the figure), which consists of a motor and a sprocket and chain mechanism.

[0020] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the transmission mechanism includes a support frame 5, a guide plate 6, a drive mechanism, a first belt conveyor mechanism, and a second belt conveyor mechanism. The support frame 5 is fixed on the base plate. The guide plate 6 is divided into a plate surface 6a and a connecting part 6b. The connecting part 6b is located at both ends of the plate surface 6a. The plate surface 6a is located in the middle of the two support frames 5 and is located at the output end of the first rubber roller 2 and the second rubber roller 3. The plate surface 6a cooperates with the output end of the first rubber roller 2 and the second rubber roller 3. The connecting part 6b is connected to the support frame 5. The first belt conveyor mechanism is located at the upper end of the second belt conveyor mechanism. The first belt conveyor mechanism and the second belt conveyor mechanism are distributed vertically. The first belt conveyor mechanism and the second belt conveyor mechanism cooperate to generate a clamping force to output the product. The guide plate 6 cooperates with the first belt conveyor mechanism and the second belt conveyor mechanism. The drive mechanism is connected to the first belt conveyor mechanism and the second belt conveyor mechanism.

[0021] The drive mechanism includes a drive component 7, a connecting shaft 8, and a gear 9. The connecting shaft 8 passes through and rotatably engages with the support frame 5. One end of the connecting shaft 8 passing through the support frame 5 is connected to the drive component 7, and the other end is connected to the gear 9. There are two connecting shafts 8, one connected to the first belt conveyor mechanism and the other connected to the second belt conveyor mechanism. The drive component 7 is preferably a motor.

[0022] Both the first and second belt conveyor mechanisms include a support rod 10, a pulley 11, and a belt 12. A connecting shaft 8 passes through and is connected to the pulley 11, and the two pulleys 11 are symmetrically distributed on the connecting shaft 8. A support plate 5 is located between two support frames 9. One end of the support rod 10 is connected to the support frame 5, and the other end of the support rod 10 is connected to the pulley 11. The belt 12 connects the pulley 11 on the support rod 10 and the pulley 11 on the connecting shaft 8, respectively. The two sets of belts 12 with the same connection method are symmetrically distributed. The connecting shaft 8 in the first belt conveyor mechanism is connected to a gear 9, and the connecting shaft 8 in the second belt conveyor mechanism is connected to another gear 9. The two gears 9 mesh. Specifically, the length of the belt 12 on the second belt conveyor is longer than the length of the belt 12 on the first belt conveyor. That is, the distance between the second belt conveyor and the surface 6a of the guide plate 6 is longer than the distance between the first belt conveyor and the surface 6a of the guide plate 6. Since the second belt conveyor is located at the lower end of the first belt conveyor, this is beneficial for the second belt conveyor to contact the product first and generate friction with the product first, so that the product moves between the first belt conveyor assembly and the second belt conveyor assembly.

[0023] The pressing mechanism includes a pressing plate 13, a cylinder 14, a connecting plate 15, and a support plate 16. The pressing plate 13 is connected to the cylinder 14, and the cylinder 14 is fixed to the connecting plate 15. The connecting plate 15 has a through hole, through which the piston rod of the cylinder 14 can pass. The cylinder 14 controls the rising and falling of the pressing plate 13 by controlling the inlet and outlet of the piston rod. The support plate 16 cooperates with the output end of the transmission mechanism. There are multiple support plates 16 arranged at intervals, and a clearance opening 16a is formed between two adjacent support plates 16. The pressing plate 13 cooperates with the clearance opening 16a, and the clearance opening 16a is located above the conveyor belt 1.

[0024] The specific implementation process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0025] The main drive mechanism operates, outputting power to the first gear transmission mechanism to rotate it. The first and second rubber rollers 2 and 3 in the guide mechanism dynamically engage under the drive of the first gear transmission mechanism, guiding the finished fabric or fashion products. The products are then output onto the guide plate 6. The products move along the guide plate 6 to the middle of the first and second belt conveyor mechanisms. A clamping force is generated between the belts 12 in the first and second belt conveyor mechanisms, conveying the products to the pressing mechanism. The products then move to the spaced support plates 16. Due to the spaced space between adjacent support plates 16... The clearance opening 16a is formed, so after the product reaches the support plate 16, the cylinder 14 works and drives the pressure plate 13 to move downward. The pressure plate 13 exerts pressure on the product. Since the product is a flexible fabric (the fabric is in block shape) or clothing, the product deforms under pressure and passes through the clearance opening 16a, pressing the product onto the conveyor belt 1. Then the cylinder 14 drives the pressure plate 13 to rise, and the transmission mechanism continues to transport the product. When the second product arrives, the pressure plate 13 continues to repeat this action until the stacked products reach the specified number. The conveyor belt 1 steps forward one station, causing the stacked products to move one station. This is repeated, and multiple product stacks are stacked sequentially on the conveyor belt 1.
