Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of unpacking equipment, and in particular to a cotton unpacking machine. Background Technology
[0002] Cotton is one of the world's most important crops. Due to its high yield and low production costs, cotton products are relatively inexpensive, making cotton a major economic crop in China and playing a vital role in the development of the textile industry and improving people's living standards.
[0003] During transportation, the cotton needs to be packaged. The cotton is stuffed into the material box, and a paper label is placed on top of the material box. When unpacking, the material box is placed inside the unpacking box. First, the paper label is removed, and then the cotton inside the material box is pushed out to complete the unpacking.
[0004] Currently, due to changes in production needs, paper labels need to be placed at the bottom of the material box before cotton is pressed into the box. When unpacking, it is impossible to push the paper labels and cotton out separately, requiring manual picking from the cotton, which increases working costs and reduces the efficiency of unpacking cotton.

[0039] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 10 This application will be described in further detail.
[0040] Currently, in order to improve the efficiency of cotton unpacking, this application proposes a cotton unpacking machine.
[0041] This application discloses a cotton unpacking machine. (Refer to...) Figure 1 and Figure 2 A cotton unpacking machine includes a housing 1, a lifting mechanism 2 disposed inside the housing 1, a pushing mechanism 3 connected to the lifting mechanism 2, a gathering mechanism 4 connected inside the housing 1, and a removal mechanism 5 disposed inside the housing 1. The housing 1 is provided with a collection bin 11, a collection section 13, an air outlet 12, and a gathering section 14. The air outlet 12 and the gathering section 14 are respectively located on both sides of the collection section 13. The collection bin 11 and the lifting mechanism 2 are located inside the collection section 13. During unpacking, the material box is inverted and clamped inside the collection section 13, with the bottom hole of the material box facing upwards. At this time, the material box is positioned... Above the collection bin 11, the user activates the lifting mechanism 2, which drives the pushing mechanism 3 to move vertically, allowing the user to place or remove the material box. After the user places the material box, the lifting mechanism 2 is activated to adjust the position of the pushing mechanism 3, which then secures the paper label inside the material box and pushes the cotton out of the material box. At this point, the paper label and cotton are separated, with the paper label located on the pushing mechanism 3. The cotton falls into the collection bin 11, thus separating the paper label from the cotton. This eliminates the need for the user to search for the paper label inside the cotton, improving the efficiency of unpacking the cotton.
[0042] Furthermore, when the cotton is pushed out of the material box by the pushing mechanism 3, the aggregation mechanism 4 gathers the cotton, improving the efficiency of the cotton falling into the collection bin 11 and improving the unpacking efficiency. At the same time, after the cotton is collected, the user lifts it to the pushing mechanism 3, causing the material box to scrape the paper label off the pushing mechanism 3. The removal mechanism 5 is then activated to remove the paper label from the collection bin 11 or the collection section 13, eliminating the need for the user to pick it up manually and improving the cotton unpacking efficiency.
[0043] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The lifting mechanism 2 includes a lifting plate 21 connected to the housing 1, a lifting cylinder 22 fixedly connected to the lifting plate 21, and a lifting slider 23 connected to the lifting cylinder 22. Lifting guide rails 211 are provided on both sides of the lifting plate 21. The lifting slider 23 is slidably connected to the lifting guide rails 211. The output end of the lifting cylinder 22 moves in the vertical direction. The ejection mechanism 3 is fixedly connected to the lifting slider 23, and the output end of the lifting cylinder 22 is fixedly connected to the ejection mechanism 3, so that the ejection mechanism 3 can move stably in the vertical direction, so as to realize the purpose of the user to place or take out the material box into the housing 1.
[0044] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The ejection mechanism 3 includes an ejection platform 31 fixedly connected to the lifting mechanism 2, an ejection guide rod 32 fixedly connected to the ejection platform 31, a mounting plate 33 fixedly connected to the ejection guide rod 32, an ejection plate 34 slidably connected to the ejection guide rod 32, an ejection cylinder 35 fixedly connected to the mounting plate 33, and an ejection needle 36 connected to the ejection plate 34. The two sides of the ejection platform 31 are fixedly connected to the lifting slider 23, and the output end of the lifting cylinder 22 is fixedly connected to the ejection platform 31. When the user starts the lifting cylinder 22, it drives the ejection platform 31 to move in the vertical direction, so as to realize the purpose of the ejection platform 31 moving in the vertical direction and realize the purpose of the user placing or taking out the material box.
[0045] Furthermore, the ejector guide rod 32 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the ejector platform 31 away from the ground. The length direction of the ejector guide rod 32 is parallel to the vertical direction. The mounting plate 33 is fixedly connected to the end of the ejector guide rod 32 away from the ground. There are multiple ejector guide rods 32 on each mounting plate 33. In this embodiment, there are four ejector guide rods 32 on each mounting plate 33. The four ejector guide rods 32 are evenly distributed on the corners of the mounting plate 33. The ejector plate 34 is slidably connected to the ejector guide rod 32 along the vertical direction. The ejector cylinder 35 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the mounting plate 33 away from the ground. The output end of the ejector cylinder 35 is fixedly connected to the surface of the ejector plate 34. When the user starts the ejector cylinder 35, the ejector plate 34 can move towards or away from the mounting plate 33 under the limitation of the ejector guide rod 32.
[0046] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 A push-out spring 361 is provided on the top of the push-out needle 36. Multiple push-out needles 36 are evenly distributed on the surface of the push-out platform 31, with the number of needles equal to the number of holes in the material box, thus achieving the purpose of pushing all the cotton out of the material box. One end of the push-out spring 361 abuts against the surface of the push-out platform 31 away from the ground, and the other end abuts against the top of the push-out needle 36. Each push-out needle 36 has multiple needle-shaped tips on the end away from the push-out spring 361. The push-out needle 36 passes through and slides on the push-out platform 31, and also penetrates into the holes of the material box. The top of the push-out needle 36 is located between the push-out platform 31 and the push-out plate 34. The collection chamber 11 is located directly below the push-out platform 31. When the user activates the push-out cylinder 35... Then, the ejector plate 34 moves towards the top of the ejector needle 36 and squeezes the ejector needle 36. At this time, the ejector needle 36 enters the interior of the material box hole, and the ejector spring 361 is compressed. The needle-like end of the ejector needle 36 pierces into the paper label and pushes the cotton into the collection chamber 11, realizing the separation of cotton and paper label, completing the collection of cotton, and improving the efficiency of unpacking. When the user starts the ejector cylinder 35 to lift the ejector plate 34, the ejector spring 361 resets the ejector needle 36, making it convenient for the user to carry out the next step.
[0047] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The polymerization mechanism 4 is located in the aggregation section 14. The polymerization mechanism 4 includes a polymerization guide rail 41 mounted on the housing 1, a polymerization slider 42 slidably connected to the polymerization guide rail 41, a polymerization plate 43 fixedly connected to the polymerization slider 42, and a polymerization cylinder 44 fixedly connected to the housing 1. There are two polymerization guide rails 41, each located at one end of the polymerization plate 43, ensuring stable movement of the polymerization plate 43. The polymerization guide rails 41 pass through the collection chamber 11. The output end of the polymerization cylinder 44 is fixedly connected to the polymerization plate 43, facilitating the movement of the polymerization slider. The purpose of the polymerization plate 42 and polymerization plate 43 moving in the horizontal direction is that the polymerization guide rail 41 is located on the side directly below the ejection mechanism 3, so that the movement of the polymerization plate 43 is directly below the ejection mechanism 3. The output end of the polymerization cylinder 44 moves in the horizontal direction. When the user starts the polymerization cylinder 44, the polymerization cylinder 44 pushes the polymerization plate 43 to move along the length direction of the polymerization guide rail 41. At this time, the cotton in the ejection material box is pushed, so that the cotton can be released from the material box more quickly, realizing the rapid collection of cotton and improving the efficiency of cotton unpacking and collection.
[0048] Meanwhile, the polymerization plate 43 moves back and forth inside the collection chamber 11. After the polymerization plate 43 finishes pushing the cotton, it can return to its original position to wait for the next pushing motion.
[0049] Reference Figures 5-10 The removal mechanism 5 includes a fan 51 connected to the chassis 1, a removal cylinder 52 connected to the chassis 1, a baffle plate 53 connected to the removal cylinder 52, and a uniform air distribution plate 54 connected to the air outlet 12. The uniform air distribution plate 54 faces the baffle plate 53. The uniform air distribution plate 54 and the baffle plate 53 are located on both sides of the collection chamber 11, and the baffle plate 53 is located below the aggregation plate 43. The airflow from the fan 51 passes through the collection chamber 11. The baffle plate 53 is fixedly connected to the output end of the removal cylinder 52. The baffle plate 53 blocks the end of the collection chamber 11. The baffle plate 53 is slidably connected to the end of the aggregation guide rail 41. The baffle plate 53 is located below the aggregation plate 43. At the same time, two aggregation sliders 42 are connected to the ends of the baffle plate 53. The aggregation sliders 42 on the aggregation plate 43 are located between the aggregation sliders 42 on the baffle plate 53 and the baffle plate 53. When the removal cylinder 52 moves, it drives the baffle plate 53 to move closer to or further away from the opening in the collection chamber 11. The fan 51 is fixedly connected to the top of the air outlet 12. The air outlet 12 is provided with a partition plate 121, which divides the air outlet 12 into an upper air outlet 12 and a lower air outlet 12. The fan 51 is located in the upper air outlet 12. The partition plate 121 has an air vent. The surface of the air distribution plate 54 is provided with multiple air vents. When the user starts the removal cylinder 52, a gap is created between the baffle plate 53 and the collection chamber 11. When the fan 51 is started, the airflow flows from the air vent into the lower air outlet 12 and enters the collection chamber 11 through the multiple air vents on the surface of the air distribution plate 54. When the push mechanism 3 moves vertically upward, the push needle 36 is pulled out from the hole in the material box. The paper label on the push needle 36 cannot pass through the hole in the material box, so it falls out of the material box. At this time, the airflow of the fan 51 blows the paper label from the collection chamber 11 into the gathering part 14, realizing the separation of the paper label and the cotton. This makes it easier for the user to gather and clean the paper label, improving the efficiency of unpacking the cotton.
[0050] Meanwhile, multiple air outlets allow the airflow to enter the collection chamber 11 smoothly and evenly, making it easier to blow out the paper labels.
[0051] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
