Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of garment production lines, and in particular to an outgoing structure and its garment hanging production line. Background Technology

[0002] Garment hanging production lines are used to transport garments during the garment production process. They typically include a main rail and hanger wheels. The hanger wheels carry the hangers, and push rods push the hanger wheels and hangers to move along the main rail.

[0003] However, current garment hanging production lines have a problem where hangers easily fall off the main rail. Specifically, hangers tend to fall off as they move from the main rail through the exit structure and onto the straight rail. To address this issue, some garment hanging production lines use a fully enclosed main rail. This fully enclosed main rail can create a space that completely confines the hanger wheels, thus preventing them from falling off. However, this method of confinement is very expensive, and its assembly and disassembly are extremely inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides an outbound structure.

[0005] An exit structure includes: a frame; a track assembly connected to the frame, the track assembly including a main track unit, a changing track unit, and a straight track unit, the main track unit and the changing track unit being connected, the changing track unit being arc-shaped, and one end of the changing track unit away from the main track unit being connected to the straight track unit, the track assembly being used for the rolling of hanger wheels; and a limiting component connected to the frame for limiting the hanger wheels on the track assembly, the limiting component being installed on the upper side of the track assembly and capable of preventing the hanger wheels on the track assembly from tilting, the projection of the limiting component in the vertical direction covering at least a portion of the changing track unit and at least a portion of the straight track unit.

[0006] In this configuration, the frame supports the track assembly and the limiting assembly. The frame is fixed in position. The track assembly includes a main track unit, a changing track unit, and a straight track unit. The hanger wheels move on the main track unit, then turn towards the straight track unit via the changing track unit, and finally move to the next process via the straight track unit. To allow for changes in the direction of the hanger wheels, the changing track unit is generally designed to be curved. Therefore, when the hanger wheels roll on the curved track, there is a risk of them tilting and falling. Thus, a limiting assembly is provided to prevent the hanger wheels from falling. The limiting assembly is located on the upper side of the track assembly to avoid interfering with the rolling of the hanger wheels. Furthermore, the vertical projection of the limiting assembly covers at least a portion of the changing track unit and at least a portion of the straight track unit. Therefore, the hanger wheels are protected by the limiting assembly during the turning process, which is prone to tipping over, greatly reducing the possibility of falling. This design of the limiting assembly improves the protection of the hanger wheels and provides more comprehensive limiting.

[0007] In one embodiment, the lower side of the limiting component is provided with a limiting step, and the limiting step is set as an arc surface near the inner side of the track component.

[0008] In one embodiment, the limiting component includes a first limiting member and a second limiting member. The lower side of the first limiting member is provided with a first limiting step, and the lower side of the second limiting member is provided with a second limiting step. The first limiting step and the second limiting step are spaced apart.

[0009] In one embodiment, the frame includes horizontal beams and vertical beams spaced apart and arranged perpendicularly. The limiting component includes a first limiting member and a second limiting member, the first limiting member being connected to the horizontal beam and the second limiting member being connected to the vertical beam.

[0010] In one embodiment, one of the first limiting member and the second limiting member is provided with a buckle, and the other is provided with a groove, wherein the buckle is engaged in the groove.

[0011] In one embodiment, both the first limiting member and the second limiting member have multiple hollowed-out grooves along the vertical direction.

[0012] In one embodiment, the main rail unit includes multiple main rods, each with a connector at its end, and adjacent main rods are detachably connected via the connector.

[0013] In one embodiment, the track-changing unit includes a track-changing rod and a station-entry rod, both of which are connected to the frame via connectors.

[0014] In one embodiment, the straight rail unit includes a connecting seat and a closed rail. The connecting seat is connected to one end of the closed rail near the changing rail unit. A stop is connected to the closed rail. The stop extends along the length of the closed rail and has a C-shaped cross-section. The connecting seat includes an upper cover and a lower cover. The upper cover and the lower cover are detachably connected. The upper cover is connected to the stop, and the lower cover is connected to the closed rail.

[0015] This utility model also provides a garment hanging production line, including the outgoing station structure as described above.

[0016] Compared to existing technologies, this invention prevents the hanger wheels from falling by setting a limiting component. The limiting component is located on the upper side of the track assembly, avoiding interference with the rolling of the hanger wheels. Furthermore, the projection of the limiting component in the vertical direction covers at least a portion of the changing track unit and at least a portion of the straight track unit. Therefore, the hanger wheels are protected by the limiting component during the turning process, which is prone to tipping, greatly reducing the possibility of falling. The limiting component set in this way improves the protection effect for the hanger wheels and provides more comprehensive limiting. Attached Figure Description

[0029] This utility model provides a station exit structure 100, which uses a limiting component 30 to limit and protect the clothes hanger wheel 40 on the track component 20, preventing the clothes hanger wheel 40 from falling off. Furthermore, the protective effect extends from the track changing unit 22 to the straight track unit 23, providing comprehensive protection.

[0030] Please see Figures 1-2 The exit structure 100 includes a frame 10, a track assembly 20, and a limiting assembly 30. The track assembly 20 is connected to the frame 10 and includes a main track unit 21, a changing track unit 22, and a straight track unit 23. The main track unit 21 and the changing track unit 22 are connected. The changing track unit 22 is arc-shaped. One end of the changing track unit 22 away from the main track unit 21 is connected to the straight track unit 23. The track assembly 20 is used for the rolling of the hanger wheel 40. The limiting assembly 30 is connected to the frame 10 and can stop the hanger wheel 40 on the track assembly 20 from tilting. It is used to limit the hanger wheel 40 on the track assembly 20. The limiting assembly 30 is installed on the upper side of the track assembly 20. The projection of the limiting assembly 30 in the vertical direction covers at least a portion of the changing track unit 22 and at least a portion of the straight track unit 23.

[0031] Thus, the frame 10 is used to support the track assembly 20 and the limiting assembly 30. The position of the frame 10 is fixed. The track assembly 20 includes a main track unit 21, a track-changing unit 22, and a straight track unit 23. The hanger wheel 40 moves on the main track unit 21, is turned by the track-changing unit 22 and moves towards the straight track unit 23, and then moves to the next process via the straight track unit 23. In order to change the direction of the hanger wheel 40, the track-changing unit 22 is generally set to be arc-shaped. Therefore, when the hanger wheel 40 rolls on the arc-shaped track, there is a risk of tilting and falling. Therefore, a limiting component 30 is provided to prevent the hanger wheel 40 from falling. The limiting component 30 is located on the upper side of the track assembly 20 to avoid interfering with the rolling of the hanger wheel 40. The vertical projection of the limiting component 30 covers at least a part of the track-changing unit 22 and at least a part of the straight track unit 23. Therefore, the hanger wheel 40 is protected by the limiting component 30 during the turning process, which is prone to tipping, greatly reducing the possibility of falling. The limiting component 30, which is set in this way, improves the protection effect of the hanger wheel 40 and the limiting is more comprehensive.

[0032] It should be explained that the vertical direction refers to the direction of gravity along which the station structure 100 is placed during normal operation, that is, when the station structure 100 is placed on a horizontal ground, the vertical direction is equivalent to the direction of gravity.

[0033] Please see Figures 3-4Specifically, the lower side of the limiting component 30 is provided with a limiting step 31. The inner side of the limiting step 31 near the track component 20 is set as an arc surface. Since the hanger wheel 40 contacts the inner side of the limiting step 31 near the track component 20 when it rolls, setting it as an arc surface can make the friction of the hanger wheel 40 when it comes into contact with it smoother and reduce interference and friction.

[0034] The limiting assembly 30 includes a first limiting member 32 and a second limiting member 33. The lower side of the first limiting member 32 has a first limiting step 311 protruding from it, and the lower side of the second limiting member 33 has a second limiting step 312 protruding from it. The first limiting step 311 and the second limiting step 312 are spaced apart. This allows the first limiting member 32 and the second limiting member 33 to be machined separately and then assembled together, reducing machining and assembly difficulty, and simplifying later replacement and maintenance. The first limiting step 311 and the second limiting step 312 can be adjusted according to their respective positions, adaptively modifying their dimensions and curvature to suit changes in the production line. Because the first limiting step 311 and the second limiting step 312 are spaced apart, when the first limiting member 32 and the second limiting member 33 are assembled, the first limiting step 311 and the second limiting step 312 will not interfere due to tolerances or assembly errors.

[0035] Furthermore, the frame 10 includes spaced-apart horizontal beams 11 and vertical beams 12, which are vertically arranged. A first limiting member 32 is connected to the horizontal beam 11, and a second limiting member 33 is connected to the vertical beam 12. Thus, the first limiting member 32 and the second limiting member 33 are respectively installed on the horizontal beam 11 and the vertical beam 12, which have different positions and extension angles. Both naturally correspond to the arc-shaped track-changing unit 22, ensuring that the limiting component 30 maintains a limiting effect on the hanger wheels 40 at different angles and positions. Moreover, both can be installed separately, simplifying assembly.

[0036] Furthermore, one of the first limiting member 32 and the second limiting member 33 is provided with a buckle 321, and the other has a groove 331, with the buckle 321 engaging in the groove 331. Thus, after the first limiting member 32 and the second limiting member 33 are respectively installed in place, the engagement of the buckle 321 and the groove 331 enhances the connection and fixation between the first limiting member 32 and the second limiting member 33. Therefore, in addition to the support provided by the crossbeam 11 and the vertical beam 12 for the first limiting member 32 and the second limiting member 33, the first limiting member 32 and the second limiting member 33 can also support each other, making the structure of the limiting assembly 30 more stable and the connection strength higher.

[0037] Specifically, in this embodiment, a snap fastener 321 is formed on the first limiting member 32, and a groove 331 is formed on the second limiting member 33. The snap fastener 321 is configured with an L-shaped structure, and the groove 331 is also configured with an L-shaped slot corresponding to the snap fastener 321. The L-shaped structure makes the engagement between the snap fastener 321 and the groove 331 more secure, and the snap fastener 321 is difficult to dislodge from the groove 331. Preferably, the groove 331 is formed along the vertical direction, so the snap fastener 321 can only be installed along the vertical direction. Therefore, the lateral force generated during operation will not cause the connection between the first limiting member 32 and the second limiting member 33 to loosen.

[0038] Both the first limiting member 32 and the second limiting member 33 have multiple vertically oriented perforated slots 322. These slots 322 reduce the weight and material cost of the first and second limiting members 32 and 33, contributing to the lightweight design of the exit structure 100. The slots 322 are spaced apart, and the walls between them naturally form reinforcing ribs that support the first and second limiting members 32 and 33. This allows for lightweight design of the first and second limiting members 32 and 33 without compromising structural strength.

[0039] The main rail unit 21 includes multiple main rods 211, with connectors 212 at the ends of each main rod 211. Adjacent main rods 211 are detachably connected via connectors 212. Thus, the main rail unit 21 can be assembled from multiple sections, facilitating repeated disassembly and improving assembly convenience. In this embodiment, the main rods 211 are circular aluminum tubes. Depending on the application, the lengths of the different main rods 211 can vary. During installation, connectors 212 of one section of the two main rods 211 are connected and fixed to connectors 212 of the other section. One section of the main rod 211 can also be used to connect to the track-changing unit 22. After aligning the front and rear positions, screws are preferably used for fixing and installation.

[0040] The track-changing unit 22 includes a track-changing rod 221 and a station-entry rod 222, both of which are connected to the frame 10 via connectors. In this embodiment, to improve the connection strength of the track-changing unit 22, the connector is set as a hanger 13. Multiple hangers 13 are connected to the frame 10. The hangers 13 are first connected and fixed to the crossbeam 11, and then the track-changing unit 22 is installed on the hangers 13. At the same time, the track-changing unit 22 is also installed and connected to the main rail unit 21. The main rail unit 21 can also be connected to the frame 10 via the hangers 13, resulting in higher overall structural strength.

[0041] The guide rail 221 is used to connect with the main rail unit 21. The hanger wheel 40 rolls onto the guide rail 221 via the main rail unit 21, and then moves towards the entry rail 222 via the guide rail 221. The end of the entry rail 222 away from the main rail unit 21 is hinged to the straight rail unit 23 to facilitate the rotation of the straight rail unit 23. The end of the straight rail unit 23 away from the guide rail unit 22 extends into the sewing station for the next step of the process.

[0042] The straight rail unit 23 includes a connecting seat 231 and a closed rail 232. The connecting seat 231 is connected to one end of the closed rail 232 near the changing rail unit 22. A stop 233 is connected to the closed rail 232. The stop 233 extends along the length of the closed rail 232 and has a C-shaped cross-section, which protects the hanger wheel 40 while allowing the movement of the hanger wheel 40 to be observed, and also facilitates the loading and unloading of the hanger wheel 40. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 5 The connecting seat 231 includes an upper cover 2311 and a lower cover 2312, which are detachably connected. The upper cover 2311 is connected to the stop member 233, and the lower cover 2312 is connected to the enclosed track 232. Thus, the stop member 233 is used to prevent the hanger wheel 40 from falling off from the other side and to receive the hanger wheel 40 from the track changing unit 22, preventing the hanger wheel 40 from tipping over. The connecting seat 231 can improve the protection of the hanger wheel 40, and the division into upper cover 2311 and lower cover 2312 reduces the difficulty of processing and assembly, and they can be installed separately during assembly.

[0043] This utility model also provides a garment hanging production line, including the outgoing station structure 100 as described above.

[0044] Compared to existing technologies, this invention prevents the hanger wheel 40 from falling by setting a limiting component 30. The limiting component 30 is located on the upper side of the track assembly 20, avoiding interference with the rolling of the hanger wheel 40. Furthermore, the vertical projection of the limiting component 30 covers at least a portion of the track-changing unit 22 and at least a portion of the straight track unit 23. Therefore, the hanger wheel 40 is protected by the limiting component 30 during the turning process, which is prone to tipping over, greatly reducing the possibility of falling. The limiting component 30, set in this way, improves the protective effect on the hanger wheel 40 and provides more comprehensive limiting.

[0045] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0046] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
