[0002] Silicone is processed through compounding, extrusion molding, vulcanization, and cold shrinking to produce silicone cold shrink tubing. This tubing is then slit into segments of the required length using a slitting machine. After slitting, the segments need to be bagged and packaged. Currently, the slit segments of silicone cold shrink tubing simply fall to the ground. Workers then carefully place these segments into packaging bags and arrange them neatly. This existing packaging method is cumbersome, time-consuming, labor-intensive, and has low production efficiency. Utility Model Content

The slitting machine is used to cut silicone cold shrink tubing. The silicone cold shrink tubing slitting and packaging device includes a mounting frame, a conveyor belt, a pusher, and a hopper. The conveyor belt is disposed on the mounting frame to receive and convey the tubing segments cut by the slitting machine. The pusher is located above the conveyor belt and can move along the width direction of the conveyor belt to push the tubing segments on the conveyor belt out from one side of the conveyor belt. The hopper is rotatably and adjustablely connected to the mounting frame and located on one side of the width direction of the conveyor belt.

[0005] The silicone cold shrink tubing slitting and packaging device according to the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0006] In this application, the conveyor belt can be parallel to the extension direction of the silicone shrink tubing segment to be cut. After the slitting machine cuts the segment, the segment falls onto the conveyor belt and extends roughly along the conveyor belt's direction. When the conveyor belt moves the segment to one side of the pusher, the conveyor belt stops moving, and the pusher moves towards the hopper, pushing the segment into the hopper in the receiving state. When the number of segments in the hopper reaches the required quantity for packaging, the hopper is rotated to the pouring state, and the segments are poured into the packaging bag, thus achieving the bagging and packaging of the segments. The operation is simple and convenient. Moreover, through the conveyor belt and the pusher, the segments can be stacked relatively neatly in the hopper. After being poured into the packaging bag, the segments can also be arranged relatively neatly, thus saving placement time and improving production efficiency.
[0007] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the rotation axis of the hopper extends along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt.
[0008] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the hopper has a receiving wall, a supporting wall, and a material outlet. When the hopper is in the receiving state, the material outlet is located at the top of the hopper, the supporting wall is located at the bottom of the hopper, and the receiving wall is located on the side of the hopper close to the conveyor belt and extends downward in a direction away from the conveyor belt.
[0009] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the hopper has a discharge wall connected to the side of the supporting wall away from the receiving wall. When the hopper is in the pouring state, the discharge wall extends downward from the supporting wall to the material outlet.
[0010] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the hopper has two adjusting walls, which are arranged along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt and can be moved and adjusted along the conveying direction.
[0011] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the pushing part extends along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt, and multiple hoppers are provided, with the multiple hoppers arranged at intervals along the conveying direction.
[0012] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the pusher section includes:
[0013] Installation Department;
[0014] A pusher plate is connected to the side of the mounting part near the hopper and extends along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt. The pusher plate has an arc-shaped segment that bends toward the hopper and the bottom end of the arc-shaped segment is attached to the conveyor belt.
[0015] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the pusher piece is detachably connected to the mounting portion.
[0016] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a clamping plate is connected to the side of the mounting part near the hopper, the top end of the pusher is clamped between the clamping plate and the mounting part, and a locking bolt is installed between the clamping plate and the mounting part.

[0035] The following is for reference. Figures 1 to 4 This invention describes a conveying and packaging device for cutting silicone shrink tubing according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0036] refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the silicone cold shrink tubing slitting and packaging device according to an embodiment of the present invention is used in a slitting machine. The slitting machine is used to cut silicone cold shrink tubing. For example, the slitting machine may be equipped with a cutting mechanism, a feeding mechanism, and a guide section. The guide section has a guide hole, the axial direction of which extends along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200. The feeding mechanism conveys the silicone cold shrink tubing to the guide hole in the guide section. Specifically, the feeding mechanism may include two sets of vertically arranged drive wheels, each set of drive wheels is equipped with a drive belt, and the two drive belts are respectively attached to the upper and lower surfaces of the silicone cold shrink tubing. When the two drive belts move, they drive the silicone cold shrink tubing to move through friction. The cutting mechanism cuts the portion of the silicone cold shrink tubing extending out of the guide hole to form a tubing segment.
[0037] The silicone cold shrink tubing slitting conveying and packaging device includes a mounting frame 100, a conveyor belt 200, a pusher 300, and a hopper 400.
[0038] The conveyor belt 200 is mounted on the mounting frame 100. The conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200 can be parallel to the extension direction of the silicone shrink tubing segment to be cut. After the slitting machine cuts the tubing segment, the segment falls onto the conveyor belt 200 and extends approximately along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200. The pusher 300 is located above the conveyor belt 200 and can move along the width direction of the conveyor belt 200. The pusher 300 can extend along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200. When the pusher 300 moves along the width direction of the conveyor belt 200, it can push the tubing segment on the conveyor belt 200 out from one side of the conveyor belt 200. The hopper 400 is rotatably and adjustablely connected to the mounting frame 100. For example, the bottom end of the hopper 400 can be rotatably connected to the mounting frame 100, and the hopper 400 is located on one side of the width direction of the conveyor belt 200. The hopper 400 can rotate to a receiving state to receive the tubing segment pushed out by the pusher 300, and to a discharging state to pour the tubing segment into a packaging bag. The hopper 400 may be provided with a material inlet 403. When the hopper 400 is in the material receiving state, the material inlet 403 may be located at the top of the hopper 400. The side of the top of the hopper 400 near the conveyor belt 200 may be attached to the mounting frame 100.
[0039] The silicone cold shrink tubing slitting and packaging device may further include a first drive unit 500 and a second drive unit 600. The first drive unit 500 is mounted on the mounting frame 100 and connected to the pusher unit 300 to drive the pusher unit 300 to move. The first drive unit 500 may be a hydraulic cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder, or an electric push rod, etc. The second drive unit 600 is mounted on the mounting frame 100 and connected to the hopper 400 to drive the pusher unit 300 to rotate. The second drive unit 600 may be a hydraulic cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder.
[0040] In this application, the conveyor belt 200 can be parallel to the extension direction of the silicone shrink tubing segment to be cut. After the slitting machine cuts the segment, the segment falls onto the conveyor belt 200 and extends roughly along the conveyor belt 200's conveying direction. When the conveyor belt 200 moves the segment to one side of the pusher 300, the conveyor belt 200 stops moving, and the pusher 300 moves towards the hopper 400, pushing the segment into the hopper 400 which is in the receiving state. When the number of segments in the hopper 400 reaches the required quantity for packaging, the hopper 400 is rotated to the pouring state, and the segments in the hopper 400 are poured into the packaging bag, thus achieving the packaging of the segments. The operation is simple and convenient. Moreover, through the conveying of the conveyor belt 200 and the pushing of the pusher 300, the segments can be stacked relatively neatly in the hopper 400. After being poured into the packaging bag, the segments can also be arranged relatively neatly, thereby saving placement time and improving production efficiency.
[0041] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the rotation axis of the hopper 400 extends along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200.
[0042] In this embodiment, this configuration makes it easier for the hopper 400 to rotate to the receiving state and the discharging state. Moreover, the receiving effect is better when the hopper 400 rotates to the receiving state, and the discharging effect is better when the hopper 400 rotates to the discharging state.
[0043] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the hopper 400 has a receiving wall 401, a supporting wall 402, and a feeding port 403. When the hopper 400 is in the receiving state, the feeding port 403 is located at the top of the hopper 400, the supporting wall 402 is located at the bottom of the hopper 400, and the receiving wall 401 is located on the side of the hopper 400 near the conveyor belt 200 and extends downwards at an angle away from the conveyor belt 200. For example, when the hopper 400 is in the receiving state, the supporting wall 402 is also the bottom wall of the hopper 400, and the supporting wall 402 is used to support the pipe section. The feeding port 403 is located at the top of the hopper 400 and is used to allow the pipe section to enter the hopper 400. The plate surface of the receiving wall 401 can be parallel to the rotation axis of the hopper 400.
[0044] In this embodiment, when the hopper 400 is in the receiving state, the receiving wall 401 is located on the side of the hopper 400 close to the conveyor belt 200 and extends downward in a direction away from the conveyor belt 200, which makes it easier for the pipe section pushed out by the pushing part 300 to enter the hopper 400. Moreover, the pipe section slides into the hopper 400 along the inclined direction of the receiving wall 401. As a result, after the pipe section enters the hopper 400, it is stacked more neatly, which can reduce manual sorting time and improve production efficiency.
[0045] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the hopper 400 has a discharge wall 404, which is connected to the side of the supporting wall 402 away from the receiving wall 401. When the hopper 400 is in the discharging state, the discharge wall 404 extends downwardly from the supporting wall 402 to the feed inlet 403. For example, when the hopper 400 is in the receiving state, the discharge wall 404 is located on the side of the hopper 400 away from the conveyor belt 200, and the surface of the discharge wall 404 can be parallel to the rotation axis of the hopper 400.
[0046] In this embodiment, when the hopper 400 is in the discharging state, the discharge wall 404 extends downward from the bearing wall 402 to the material outlet 403. This makes it easier for the pipe sections in the hopper 400 to slide into the packaging bag through the discharge wall 404. Moreover, the pipe sections in the hopper 400 slide into the packaging bag along the inclined direction of the discharge wall 404. After the pipe sections enter the packaging bag, they are stacked more neatly, which can further reduce manual sorting time and improve production efficiency.
[0047] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the hopper 400 has two adjusting walls 405, which are arranged along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200 and can be moved and adjusted along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200. For example, the two adjusting walls 405, the receiving wall 401, the discharging wall 404, and the bearing wall 402 enclose the inner cavity of the hopper 400. Both the receiving wall 401 and the discharging wall 404 can be provided with multiple sets of connecting holes 406. The multiple sets of connecting holes 406 of the receiving wall 401 are arranged along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200, and the multiple sets of connecting holes 406 of the discharging wall 404 are arranged along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200. The two sides of the adjusting wall 405 are installed in the two sets of connecting holes 406 by fasteners. When the fasteners are inserted into different sets of connecting holes 406, the adjustment of the adjusting wall 405 along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200 can be realized.
[0048] In this embodiment, two adjusting walls 405 are arranged along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200 and can be moved and adjusted along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200. In this way, the size of the hopper 400 in the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200 can be adjusted according to the pipe segments of different lengths, so that the size of the hopper 400 in the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200 is adapted to the length of the pipe segment to be loaded. This avoids the hopper 400 being too small in the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200 to be unable to load the pipe segment, and also avoids the hopper 400 being too large in the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200 to affect the neatness of the pipe segment.
[0049] refer to Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the pushing part 300 extends along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200, and multiple hoppers 400 are provided, which are arranged at intervals along the conveying direction. When the conveyor belt 200 moves the pipe section to one side of different hoppers 400, it can stop moving, and the pushing part 300 can push the pipe section into different hoppers 400.
[0050] In this embodiment, multiple hoppers 400 are provided. When some hoppers 400 are emptying material, at least one hopper 400 can receive material normally, avoiding the slitting machine from stopping operation, thereby improving production efficiency. Moreover, different hoppers 400 can be used to load pipe sections of different diameters or lengths, so as to facilitate bagging and packaging them separately.
[0051] refer to Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the pushing part 300 includes a mounting part 301 and a pushing piece 302. The mounting part 301 can be connected to the first driving part 500. The pushing piece 302 is connected to the side of the mounting part 301 near the hopper 400 and extends along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200. The pushing piece 302 has an arc-shaped section that bends toward the hopper 400 and the bottom end of the arc-shaped section is attached to the conveyor belt 200.
[0052] In this embodiment, the arc-shaped section of the pusher plate 302 is bent toward the hopper 400, and the bottom end of the arc-shaped section is attached to the conveyor belt 200. This makes it easier to push the pipe section on the conveyor belt 200 into the hopper 400. Moreover, the pusher plate 302 is plate-shaped, which can reduce wear on the conveyor belt 200.
[0053] refer to Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the pusher plate 302 is detachably connected to the mounting portion 301. Thus, when the pusher plate 302 becomes worn, it can be replaced promptly.
[0054] refer to Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, a clamping plate 303 is connected to the side of the mounting part 301 near the hopper 400, the top end of the pusher plate 302 is clamped between the clamping plate 303 and the mounting part 301, and a locking bolt 304 is installed between the clamping plate 303 and the mounting part 301.
[0055] In this embodiment, when installing the pusher plate 302, the top end of the pusher plate 302 is inserted between the clamping plate 303 and the mounting part 301, and then the locking bolt 304 is tightened. The clamping plate 303 and the mounting part 301 cooperate to clamp the pusher plate 302. When it is necessary to remove the pusher plate 302, the locking bolt 304 is loosened and the pusher plate 302 is pulled out. The operation is simple and convenient, and the pusher plate 302 is clamped more securely.
[0056] It should be noted that the pusher plate 302 can also be detachably connected to the mounting part 301 in other ways, for example, it can also be snapped onto the mounting part 301.
[0057] refer to Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, there is a gap between the mounting part 301 and the conveyor belt 200. This prevents wear on the conveyor belt 200 when the mounting part 301 moves.
[0058] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
