Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of assembly equipment technology, specifically to a hopper for a cotton-filling device. Background Technology

[0002] During the assembly of a laptop, padding is required on the mating parts to provide cushioning and protection during subsequent assembly or transportation. Before the padding is transferred to the opening and closing position of the laptop, it needs to be stored in a hopper.

[0003] The existing cotton-filling equipment uses a fixed hopper for material handling, and then a transfer module grabs and transfers the cotton. Because the cotton is soft, breathable, and lightweight, multiple pieces of cotton may be picked up and transferred at once during the adsorption process. This results in repeated material usage during assembly, and cotton may also fall off after being removed, hindering further transfer and affecting the efficiency of the hopper. Optimization and improvement are needed. Utility Model Content

[0022] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0024] like Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, this application provides a hopper for a cotton feeding device, including: a support plate 1, an adjustable protective frame 2 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the support plate 1, and a fixed mounting plate 3 fixedly connected to the top end of the support plate 1;

[0025] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, a telescopic cylinder 14 is installed on the inner side of the adjusting protective frame 2. A push plate 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the telescopic cylinder 14. The telescopic cylinder 14 drives the push plate 15 to move upward, which facilitates the position adjustment of the transferred cotton.

[0026] The top of the fixed mounting plate 3 is provided with a separation and blocking assembly, which includes a hopper baffle 4. A sliding block 7 is connected to the outside of the hopper baffle 4, and a top pressure baffle 9 is provided at the top of the sliding block 7. An insert buffer pad 13 is connected to the inside of the top pressure baffle 9. The separation and blocking assembly is used for separation during cotton transfer.

[0027] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, a sliding frame 5 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the hopper baffle 4, and an adjusting screw 6 is threadedly connected to the bottom inner side of the sliding frame 5. The rotation of the adjusting screw 6 inside the sliding frame 5 will drive the sliding block 7 to move up and down inside the sliding frame 5.

[0028] Specifically, such as Figure 3As shown, the sliding block 7 is slidably connected to the inner side of the sliding frame 5. The sliding block 7 and the adjusting screw 6 are rotatably connected. The top of the sliding block 7 is fixedly connected to the rotating connecting frame 8. A limit stop 11 is fixedly connected to one side of the rotating connecting frame 8. The limit stop 11 is used to block and limit the rotation position of the top baffle 9.

[0029] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, a rotating connecting rod 10 is connected to the inner side of the rotating connecting frame 8, and a top pressure baffle 9 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the rotating connecting rod 10. A retaining spring 12 is connected to the outer side of the rotating connecting rod 10. The two ends of the retaining spring 12 are respectively connected to the inner side of the top pressure baffle 9 and the rotating connecting frame 8. When no external force is applied, the inner side of the top pressure baffle 9 presses down to squeeze the top of the cotton.

[0030] The bottom of the fixed mounting plate 3 is provided with a hopper control component, which includes a connecting plate 16. The bottom of the connecting plate 16 is connected to an adjusting screw 19. The hopper control component is used to adjust the hopper space.

[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the hopper baffle 4 is slidably connected to the inner side of the fixed mounting plate 3. The inner side of the fixed mounting plate 3 is provided with a sliding groove 17 that is slidably connected to the hopper baffle 4. The hopper baffle 4 is slidably adjusted inside the fixed mounting plate 3. The capacity of the hopper is determined by controlling the height of the hopper baffle 4.

[0032] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the connecting plate 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the hopper baffle 4, and the connecting plate 16 is connected to the hopper baffle 4 for position adjustment.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the bottom end of the fixed mounting plate 3 is fixedly connected to an elastic guide rod 18 that is slidably connected to the connecting plate 16. The second adjusting screw 19 is threadedly connected to the inner side of the connecting plate 16. The second adjusting screw 19 rotates at the bottom end of the fixed mounting plate 3, thereby driving the connecting plate 16 to adjust its position.

[0034] In this embodiment: a top pressure baffle 9 is set at the top of the outer side of the hopper baffle 4. The top pressure baffle 9 presses and limits the uppermost layer of cotton. Then, the top pressure baffle 9 is connected to the rotating connecting rod 10 and the snap ring 12. When the cotton moves, it will apply downward pressure to prevent multiple cotton from moving at the same time and affecting subsequent use. A rotatable adjusting screw 19 is set at the bottom of the hopper baffle 4. By rotating the adjusting screw 19, the connecting plate 16 and the top hopper baffle 4 can be adjusted in height. The space inside the hopper can be adjusted by adjusting the height of the hopper baffle 4.

[0035] The specific solution is as follows: Before placing the cotton wadding inside the laptop, the cotton wadding needs to be stored in a hopper to facilitate its transfer in a fixed position. The rotation of the adjusting screw 19 drives the connecting plate 16 and the top hopper baffle 4 to adjust their height. The size of the inner space of the hopper baffle 4 can be adjusted by adjusting the height of the hopper baffle 4, allowing different numbers of cotton wadding to be placed according to actual needs. During the transfer process, the transfer module adsorbs the top layer of cotton wadding and then transfers it. To ensure that the transfer module can always transfer the top layer of cotton wadding, the telescopic cylinder 14 drives the push plate 15 to move synchronously. When the top cotton wadding is transferred, the top pressure baffle 9 applies pressure to the cotton wadding. Since the cotton wadding material is relatively soft, to prevent multiple cotton wadding from moving out simultaneously, the rotation direction of the top pressure baffle 9 is restricted by the retaining spring 12, allowing the cotton wadding to bear a certain pressure during transfer. This causes cotton wadding that is not directly adsorbed and transferred to fall off, improving the stability of the transfer and ensuring processing efficiency.

[0036] Those skilled in the art should understand that the discussion of any of the above embodiments is merely exemplary; within the framework of this invention, the technical features of the above embodiments or different embodiments can also be combined, the steps can be implemented in any order, and there are many other variations of the different aspects of this invention as described above, which are not provided in the details for the sake of brevity.

[0037] This utility model is intended to cover all such substitutions, modifications, and variations that fall within the broad scope of the appended claims. Therefore, any omissions, modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
