[0041] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0042] It should be noted that all directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in this utility model embodiment are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicators will also change accordingly.

[0043] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "first" and "second" in this utility model is for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the stated features. Additionally, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but only on the basis of being achievable by those skilled in the art. If the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, such a combination of technical solutions should be considered non-existent and not within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.

[0044] This utility model discloses an encoding tape production equipment, which is used to process material tape into encoding tape, that is, to make holes in a designated area on the material tape to manufacture encoding tape.

[0045] Please see Figures 1 to 10 An embodiment of the coding tape production equipment includes a frame 100, an unwinding device 200, a perforating device 300, a feeding device 400, a grinding device 500, and a winding device 600. The unwinding device 200 is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to unwind the material tape. The perforating device 300 is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to perforate the material tape. The feeding device 400 is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to transport the material tape at the unwinding device 200 to the perforating device 300. The grinding device 500 is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to grind the perforated material tape. The winding device 600 is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to wind the perforated material tape. Through the automated production of coding tape, manual intervention can be reduced, the production quality of coding tape can be improved, and the labor manufacturing cost can be reduced.

[0046] In this embodiment, since the grinding device 500 grinds the material strip after the hole is processed, the grinding device 500 can further remove surface defects such as burrs and scratches on the coding strip, avoid reading errors caused by light signal blockage or abnormal reflection, and thus further improve the production quality of the coding strip.

[0047] It is understandable that the coding strip can be a metal strip with several openings on its extended square shape. The code reading device can read the shape parameters of the openings to determine the position of the coding strip, thereby realizing position detection or distance measurement. By increasing the production quality of the coding strip, that is, the accuracy of the hole position and the shape quality of the coding strip, the reading accuracy and reliability of the code reading device can be improved.

[0048] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 9The grinding apparatus 500 includes a grinding frame 510 and a grinding mechanism 520. The grinding frame 510 has a first channel 511 for conveying the material belt and an opening 512 for exposing the material belt. The grinding mechanism 520 is disposed in the opening 512 and is used to grind the material belt. With this arrangement, the grinding mechanism 520 can grind the material belt after it has been perforated through the opening 512, thereby improving its production quality.

[0049] Furthermore, in this embodiment, two openings 512 are provided on the grinding frame 510, namely a first opening 513 and a second opening 514. The first opening 513 and the second opening 514 are respectively provided on both sides of the material strip and are spaced apart in the conveying direction of the material strip. The grinding mechanism 520 includes a first grinding module 521 and a second grinding module 522. The first grinding module 521 is correspondingly provided with the first opening 513 and is used to grind burrs on one side of the material strip. The second grinding module 522 is correspondingly provided with the second opening 514 and is used to grind burrs on the other side of the material strip. With this arrangement, the first grinding module 521 and the second grinding module 522 can be used to grind burrs on both sides of the material strip respectively, which can improve the grinding quality.

[0050] In this embodiment, the first grinding module 521 and the second grinding module 522 have the same structure; wherein, the first grinding module 521 includes a support frame 501, a movable frame 502 slidably disposed on the support frame 501, a movable adjustment component 503 for adjusting the position of the movable frame 502 relative to the support frame 501, a first grinding roller 504 and a second grinding roller 505 rotatably disposed on the movable frame 502, and a drive component 506 for driving the first grinding roller 504 and the second grinding roller 505 to rotate.

[0051] By using the first grinding roller 504 and the second grinding roller 505 to repeatedly grind burrs on one side of the strip, the grinding quality can be improved. The rolling pressure of the first grinding roller 504 and the second grinding roller 505 on the strip can be adjusted by the movable adjustment component 503, thereby ensuring the reliability of the strip grinding. Of course, in other embodiments, in order to further improve the grinding quality of the strip, a third grinding roller or other numbers of grinding rollers can be added, thereby ensuring the processing quality of the strip through more rolling processes.

[0052] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4The frame 100 has a first notch 110 and a second notch 120 formed at opposite ends. The unwinding device 200 and the winding device 600 are respectively disposed at the first notch 110 and the second notch 120. This arrangement facilitates the flexible installation of the unwinding device 200 and the winding device 600. Specifically, the bottom of the frame 100 has several adjustable support feet 130. These adjustable support feet 130 can be used to adjust the level of the frame 100 mounted on the working surface, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of components such as the unwinding device 200, the piercing device 300, the feeding device 400, the grinding device 500, and the winding device 600 mounted on the frame 100.

[0053] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 The unwinding device 200 includes an unwinding frame 210, an unwinding shaft 220, and a first limiting mechanism 230. The unwinding frame 210 has an unwinding space for accommodating the material roll. The unwinding shaft 220 is rotatably mounted on the unwinding frame 210 and is used to hold the material roll. The first limiting mechanism 230 is detachably connected to the unwinding shaft 220 and is used to lock and limit the material roll onto the unwinding shaft 220. With this configuration, the unwinding shaft 220 is a driven shaft and can rotate freely to release the material strip on the material roll. Moreover, the first limiting mechanism 230 facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the material roll.

[0054] Specifically, the unwinding frame 210 has several guide wheels spaced apart on its inner circumference. These guide wheels are used to slide and engage with the outer circumference of the coil. This arrangement protects the outer circumference of the coil during its driven rotation.

[0055] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The opening device 300 is a laser drilling device or a stamping and cutting device, which can open holes in the strip.

[0056] When using a laser drilling device, the laser beam does not directly contact the material strip during the drilling process, avoiding the pressure and friction caused by mechanical contact. This prevents mechanical damage to the material strip and eliminates tool wear issues, while also resulting in higher drilling precision. However, compared to laser drilling, the equipment cost of using a stamping and cutting device is relatively lower, and the manufacturing and maintenance costs of the molds are also more economical, leading to lower production costs.

[0057] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 10The winding device 600 includes a winding drive mechanism 610, a winding shaft 620, and a second limiting mechanism 630. The winding drive mechanism 610 is mounted on the frame 100 and is connected to the winding shaft 620 to drive the winding shaft 620 to rotate. The winding shaft 620 is used to hold the material roll. The second limiting mechanism 630 is detachably connected to the winding shaft 620 and is used to lock and limit the material roll onto the winding shaft 620. With this configuration, the winding shaft 620 is the drive shaft and can rotate under the drive of the winding drive mechanism 610 to actively wind the material strip. Moreover, the second limiting mechanism 630 facilitates the removal and replacement of the material roll.

[0058] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 7 The coding tape production equipment also includes a guide roller device 700, which comprises a first guide roller 710, a tape correction roller assembly 720, and a correction adjustment assembly 730. The first guide roller 710 guides the tape to the tape correction roller assembly 720. The tape correction roller assembly 720 includes a first correction roller assembly 721 and a second correction roller assembly 722 arranged opposite to each other. The tape is confined between the first correction roller assembly 721 and the second correction roller assembly 722 and can follow the correction movement of the first correction roller assembly 721 and the second correction roller assembly 722. The tape correction roller assembly 720 is drive-connected to the first correction roller assembly 721 and the second correction roller assembly 722 and is used to adjust the position of the first correction roller assembly 721, the second correction roller assembly 722, and the tape. This arrangement facilitates the correction and adjustment of the tape position, thereby increasing the tape's starting accuracy.

[0059] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 8 The coding tape production equipment also includes a material guiding device 800, which includes a first side guide rail 810 and a second side guide rail 820 spaced apart from each other. The first side guide rail 810 includes a first guide plate 811 and a second guide plate 812 arranged opposite to each other, forming a first conveying gap 801. The second side guide rail 820 includes a third guide plate 821 and a fourth guide plate 822 arranged opposite to each other, forming a second conveying gap 802. The two sides of the material tape are respectively accommodated within the first conveying gap 801 and the second conveying gap 802 for conveying. This arrangement facilitates the limited conveying of the material tape, ensuring the stability and reliability of the material tape conveying.

[0060] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7The feeding device 400 includes a first feeding roller 410 and a second feeding roller 420 disposed opposite to each other, and a feeding drive assembly 430 that is drively connected to at least one of the first feeding roller 410 and the second feeding roller 420. With this arrangement, the material can be conveyed and moved within the coding tape production equipment by the feeding device 400.

[0061] Understandably, several feeding devices 400 can be installed along the conveying track of the material belt to ensure the reliability and stability of the conveying. Specifically, two feeding devices 400 can be installed, one between the guide roller device 700 and the guide device 800, and the other between the grinding device 500 and the winding device 600. By installing the two feeding devices 400 before the opening device 300 and after the grinding device 500, damage to the feeding devices 400 caused by uneven material belts can be avoided.

[0062] Of course, in other embodiments, other feeding devices 400 can also be provided to meet the conveying requirements, depending on the flexible arrangement of the various functional devices on the conveying track.

[0063] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model. Therefore, any equivalent variations made in accordance with the claims of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
