Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automatic cutting machine technology, and in particular to an auxiliary stacking device for automatic cutting machines. Background Technology
[0002] Automatic cutting machines can be used to cut various materials, especially film materials such as PET film, PVC film, reflective film, thin film, PE film, bubble film, and plastic film. They can also automatically cut various fabrics and paper sheets. After cutting, these materials need to be stacked and sorted for subsequent packaging and transportation. Most existing cutting machines use baffles corresponding to the material size. The simple version is fixed on the platform at the output of the cutting machine to block the cut material. The material can be stacked automatically, but there are some problems. During the automatic stacking process, the material cannot be arranged neatly and still requires manual sorting afterward, which takes a long time. In addition, if you want to remove the stacked material after it has been stacked to a certain thickness, you need to stop the operation of the cutting machine, remove the cut material, and then restart the cutting machine. Manual material removal will cause the cutting machine to be paused for too long, which will affect the production efficiency and urgently needs to be improved. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the shortcomings of the aforementioned technologies, this utility model provides an auxiliary stacking device for an automatic cutting machine. The device includes a mounting frame installed at the discharge port of the automatic cutting machine and a stacking mechanism. The stacking mechanism is mounted on the mounting frame, which has a discharge conveyor belt. The stacking mechanism includes a pair of adjusting rails, a sliding mounting frame, a movable baffle, a pair of drive cylinders, a pair of sorting clamps, and a clamp control mechanism. The pair of adjusting rails are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the discharge conveyor belt. Adjusting sliders are fixedly connected to both ends of the sliding mounting frame, allowing for adjustable sliding contact between the sliding mounting frame and the pair of adjusting rails. The pair of drive cylinders are fixedly mounted on the sliding mounting frame, and their piston rods are fixedly connected to the movable baffle. A mounting plate is provided on the movable baffle, and the clamp control mechanism is mounted on the mounting plate. The pair of sorting clamps are connected to the clamp control mechanism. The pair of drive cylinders, the clamp control mechanism, and the discharge conveyor belt are all connected to the automatic cutting machine via a PLC controller.
[0004] Using the above technical solution, a material conveyor belt is installed at the outlet of the automatic cutting machine. A stacking device, including a pair of adjusting tracks, a sliding mounting frame, a movable baffle, a pair of drive cylinders, a pair of sorting clamps, and a clamp control mechanism, is then installed on the conveyor belt. The position of the sliding mounting frame on the adjusting tracks is pre-adjusted according to the size of the cut material. After the cutting machine is started, the cut material automatically falls from the outlet, is blocked by the movable baffle, and positioned between the pair of sorting clamps on the conveyor belt. It continues to fall and stacks in a certain quantity. Once a quantity is stacked for transfer, the cutting machine is briefly paused, and simultaneously, the clamp control mechanism controls the stacking device. The clamping plates quickly squeeze and pat the stacked materials on both sides to make them relatively neat. Then, the drive cylinder starts to control the movable baffle to rise. After the movable baffle rises, the discharge conveyor belt starts and moves a certain distance to transport the stacked and sorted materials out between the movable baffle and a pair of sorting clamps. Then the discharge conveyor belt stops, the drive cylinder controls the movable baffle to fall, and the automatic cutting machine resumes operation. The stacked and sorted materials can then be taken away. Compared with the existing method of pausing and manually picking up materials, the automatic sorting method after pausing and then manually picking up materials after resumption greatly shortens the interval of cutting machine pausing and the time spent on manual sorting, thus improving production efficiency.
[0005] A further feature of this invention is that the clamping plate control mechanism includes a pair of electric slides and a pair of mounting brackets. The pair of electric slides are symmetrically arranged on the mounting plate. One end of each of the pair of mounting brackets is connected to the slide of the pair of electric slides, and the other end is connected to the pair of tidying clamps.
[0006] Using the above technical solution, the clamping plate control mechanism includes a pair of electric slides and a pair of mounting rods. The pair of electric slides are symmetrically arranged on the mounting plate. One end of the pair of mounting rods is connected to the slide of the pair of electric slides, and the other end is connected to the pair of sorting clamps. The stroke of the electric slides is set according to the size of the material, and then the pair of sorting clamps are controlled to move back and forth through the electric slides to squeeze and pat the two ends of the stacked material to make it neat.
[0007] A further feature of this invention is that each of the pair of sorting clamps has a plastic scraper at its bottom, and the surface of the plastic scraper is flush with the end face of the sorting clamp.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, since each of the pair of sorting clamps is provided with a plastic scraper at the bottom, and the surface of the plastic scraper is flush with the end face of the sorting clamp, the sorting effect can be guaranteed while avoiding conflict with the surface of the discharge conveyor belt, which would hinder the forward movement.
[0009] A further feature of this invention is that an extension plate is provided on the adjusting slider at one end of the sliding mounting bracket, a threaded hole is opened on the extension plate and a limiting screw is provided in the threaded hole, and an anti-slip rubber pad is sleeved on the end of the limiting screw.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, since an extension plate is provided on the adjusting slider at one end of the sliding mounting bracket, a threaded hole is opened on the extension plate and a limiting screw is provided in the threaded hole, and an anti-slip rubber pad is sleeved on the end of the limiting screw, the sliding mounting bracket can be limited by tightening the limiting screw, making the adjustment faster.

The pair of driving cylinders are fixedly mounted on the sliding mounting frame. The piston rods of the pair of driving cylinders are fixedly connected to the movable baffle. The movable baffle is provided with a mounting horizontal plate 12. The clamping plate control mechanism is mounted on the mounting horizontal plate. The pair of sorting clamps are connected to the clamping plate control mechanism. The pair of driving cylinders, the clamping plate control mechanism, and the discharge conveyor belt are all connected to the automatic cutting machine through a PLC controller 13.
[0016] By setting a discharge conveyor belt at the discharge port of an automatic cutting machine, and then installing a stacking device on the discharge conveyor belt, including a pair of adjusting rails, a sliding mounting frame, a movable baffle, a pair of drive cylinders, a pair of sorting clamps, and a clamp control mechanism, the position of the sliding mounting frame on the adjusting rails is pre-adjusted according to the size of the cut material. After the cutting machine is started, the cut material automatically falls from the discharge port, is blocked by the movable baffle and positioned between the pair of sorting clamps on the discharge conveyor belt, and then continues to fall and stack in a certain quantity. After stacking to a quantity that can be transferred, the cutting machine is briefly paused, and at the same time, the clamp control mechanism controls the pair of sorting clamps to... The material is quickly squeezed and patted on both sides of the stacked material to make it relatively neat. Then, the drive cylinder starts to control the movable baffle to rise. After the movable baffle rises, the discharge conveyor belt starts and moves a certain distance to transport the stacked and sorted material out between the movable baffle and a pair of sorting clamps. Then the discharge conveyor belt stops, the drive cylinder controls the movable baffle to fall, and the automatic cutting machine resumes operation. The stacked and sorted material can then be taken away. Compared with the existing method of pausing and manually picking up the material, the automatic sorting method after pausing and then manually picking up the material after resumption greatly shortens the interval of the cutting machine pausing and the time spent on manual sorting, thus improving production efficiency.
[0017] The clamping plate control mechanism includes a pair of electric slides 14 and a pair of mounting rods 15. The pair of electric slides are symmetrically arranged on the mounting plate. One end of the pair of mounting rods is connected to the slide of the pair of electric slides, and the other end is connected to the pair of tidying clamps.
[0018] The clamping plate control mechanism includes a pair of electric slides and a pair of mounting rods. The pair of electric slides are symmetrically arranged on the mounting plate. One end of each of the pair of mounting rods is connected to the slide of the pair of electric slides, and the other end is connected to a pair of sorting clamps. The stroke of the electric slides is set according to the size of the material. The pair of sorting clamps are then controlled to move back and forth through the electric slides to squeeze and pat the two ends of the stacked material to make it neat.
[0019] Each of the pair of sorting clamps is provided with a plastic scraper 16 at its bottom, and the surface of the plastic scraper is flush with the end face of the sorting clamp.
[0020] Since each of the pair of sorting clamps is equipped with a plastic scraper at its bottom, and the surface of the plastic scraper is flush with the end face of the sorting clamp, the sorting effect can be guaranteed while avoiding conflict with the surface of the discharge conveyor belt, which would hinder the forward movement.
[0021] An extension plate 17 is provided on the adjusting slider at one end of the sliding mounting bracket. A threaded hole 18 is opened on the extension plate and a limiting screw 19 is provided in the threaded hole. An anti-slip rubber pad 20 is sleeved on the end of the limiting screw.
[0022] Because the sliding mounting bracket has an extension plate on one end of the adjusting slider, and the extension plate has a threaded hole and a limiting screw is provided in the threaded hole, and the end of the limiting screw is fitted with an anti-slip rubber pad, the sliding mounting bracket can be limited by tightening the limiting screw, making the adjustment faster.
