Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of printing and binding equipment, and in particular to a cover positioning mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Perfect binding, as an efficient and sturdy bookbinding method, is widely used in the post-processing of various printed materials such as books, magazines, and albums. The positioning mechanism is the key equipment to achieve precise binding between the book block and the cover, and its performance directly affects the quality and production efficiency of the bound products.
[0003] A search of Chinese patents revealed publication number CN215041554U, which discloses a quick-positioning and adjusting device for the cover of a perfect binding machine. The device includes an upper sealing mechanism composed of an upper wall plate and a lower wall plate, which are set parallel to each other. Alignment holes are provided on both the upper and lower wall plates, and a slide rail guide shaft fixes the upper and lower wall plates together within these holes. A movable block is slidably connected to the slide rail guide shaft, and a rack guide shaft is also fixedly connected between the upper and lower wall plates. In this quick-positioning and adjusting device for the cover of a perfect binding machine, when the handwheel is turned, the gear shaft rotates on the rack guide shaft and moves axially on both the rack guide shaft and the slide rail guide shaft. Simultaneously, the page stop positioning plate moves, and a locking plate is fixed to the movable block. A locking handle is located within the locking plate, preventing axial movement of the movable block assembly. A long groove on the side of the page stop positioning plate serves as a cover positioning feature, facilitating the limiting of covers of different lengths and improving their adaptability.
[0004] Existing positioning mechanisms suffer from poor positioning accuracy. Current mechanisms primarily rely on chain drives to synchronize the transport of the book clip and the top cover. However, during frequent and prolonged engagement, chain wear is inevitable, leading to increased chain pitch and inconsistent chain tension. This tension error severely impacts transmission accuracy. Furthermore, the instability of chain drives causes a discrepancy between the book clip's movement speed and the top cover's transport speed, resulting in asynchrony. When the book clip and top cover are out of sync, the cover may become skewed upon contact with the book block, and the fit between them may be loose, significantly affecting the quality of the bound product. To ensure product quality, manufacturers are forced to reduce production speed to minimize quality issues caused by asynchrony, thus lowering production efficiency. To address these problems, we propose a cover positioning mechanism. Utility Model Content

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the glue on the book block and cover is rolled by setting up a glue rolling mechanism, which makes the glue more uniform and improves the quality of perfect binding.
[0014] The present invention is further configured such that: two fixing blocks are bolted to the surface of the tray, a sliding rod is bolted between the fixing blocks, and the right positioning block is slidably sleeved with the surface of the sliding rod.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, a fixed block and a sliding rod are set to prevent the positioning block from shifting.

It can accurately position the book blocks of each book clip synchronously with the top cover, and the conveying is smooth. It is designed for high-speed operation. Compared with traditional book clip and top cover mechanisms, it overcomes the problem of asynchronous movement of book clips and top cover caused by chain tension errors, thereby maximizing the customer's production capacity.
