Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of rubber processing technology, specifically relating to a vulcanized rubber receiving device. Background Technology

[0002] In the rubber product manufacturing industry, the vulcanization process is a crucial step in the entire processing flow, determining the physical properties and dimensional stability of the rubber products. Currently, in industrial production, vulcanized rubber products typically require edge trimming to remove burrs and excess waste formed during mold extrusion before winding, storage, or further processing. Traditional vulcanized rubber trimming and winding processes rely heavily on manual labor or semi-automatic equipment, which is not only labor-intensive and inefficient but also results in poor dimensional consistency, leading to quality problems such as uneven trimming, residual burrs, and loose winding, ultimately affecting the final product's pass rate and appearance.

[0003] Furthermore, due to the viscoelasticity and flexibility of vulcanized rubber, it is prone to deformation or displacement during movement or cutting. Without an effective guiding and clamping mechanism, this will directly lead to reduced cutting accuracy and may even cause problems such as equipment jamming or damage. At the same time, if appropriate clamping force is not applied to the rubber strip during the winding process, air bubbles, wrinkles, or misalignment can easily form, seriously affecting the winding effect and subsequent use of the product.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a device capable of guiding, cutting, pressing, and efficiently winding vulcanized rubber after discharge, which would not only improve production efficiency but also ensure the consistency and aesthetics of product quality. Although some existing technologies involve rubber winding and cutting, their overall structure is complex, maintenance is difficult, and versatility is limited, leaving room for improvement. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a vulcanized rubber take-up device, which achieves automated trimming of the flash of vulcanized rubber through a cutting mechanism, and achieves stable and efficient take-up through the multi-axis structure and pressing device of the roll machine.

[0006] The technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A vulcanized rubber receiving device includes a vulcanizing machine, a winding machine, and a cutting mechanism disposed between the vulcanizing machine and the winding machine.

[0029] To enhance understanding of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. These embodiments are only used to explain the present utility model and do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0030] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this embodiment provides a vulcanized rubber receiving device, including a vulcanizing machine 1, a winding machine 2, and a cutting mechanism 3 disposed between the vulcanizing machine 1 and the winding machine 2. After being processed by the vulcanizing machine 1, the vulcanized rubber is output from its discharge end, sequentially passes through the cutting mechanism 3 for cutting, and finally enters the winding machine 2 for winding.

[0031] The cutting mechanism 3 is equipped with at least one cutting platform 31, which supports and guides the vulcanized rubber. Several pressing mechanisms 32 are provided on the cutting platform 31 to compress the vulcanized rubber, ensuring its flatness and stability during cutting and preventing it from warping or shifting. Two cutting mechanisms 33 are located in the middle of the cutting platform 31. These two cutting mechanisms are arranged perpendicular to the discharge direction of the vulcanized rubber and can slide on the cutting platform 31 via grooves, allowing for easy adjustment of their spacing to accommodate vulcanized rubber materials of different widths. The two cutting mechanisms 33 are mainly used to remove excess burrs and waste material from the edges of the vulcanized rubber, ensuring the neatness of the finished product after winding.

[0032] In some embodiments, the cutting mechanism 33 includes a blade holder 331 with a blade body axially connected to it. The upper end of the blade body has a blade head 332 for contacting and cutting the rubber edge, and the lower end has a top plate 333 for adjusting the blade body angle. The top plate 333 engages with a nut 334 on the blade holder 331 via an adjustable screw 335. Tightening the screw 335 causes it to abut against the top plate 333, thereby pushing the blade body to rotate around the axial connection point, achieving fine adjustment of the blade head 332 angle to ensure cutting effectiveness.

[0033] To further stabilize the material flow, two vertically arranged positioning rollers 34 are provided between two adjacent cutting mechanisms 33. The positioning rollers 34 are installed on the cutting platform 31 and can slide along the groove perpendicular to the material discharge direction, thereby achieving lateral limiting and guiding of the vulcanized rubber and avoiding deviation during the cutting process.

[0034] The pressing mechanism 32 specifically includes two vertically arranged side plates 321, with a roller 322 arranged horizontally between the two side plates 321. An upper spring plate 323 is provided at the top of the side plates 321, and at least one guide rod 324 is connected to the upper spring plate 323. A lower spring plate 325 is provided at the other end of the guide rod 324, and a spring 326 is sleeved on the guide rod 324. The spring 326 connects to the upper and lower spring plates respectively, thus forming an elastic pressing structure. A first pressure roller 327 is installed at the bottom of the lower spring plate 325 to apply downward pressing force to the surface of the vulcanized rubber, enhancing its adhesion and stability.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, the winding end of the winding machine 2 is provided with at least one winding shaft 21, which is used to wind the cut vulcanized rubber into a roll. To ensure tight winding, the winding shaft 21 is provided with an air-expanding shaft 22, which can be inflated during winding to provide stronger clamping force and prevent the rubber from slipping or loosening. In addition, the winding shaft 21 is also provided with a clamping device to enhance the shaping and stability of the rubber roll.

[0036] The pressing device includes a frame 23, on which a mounting plate 24 is installed. A connecting plate 25 is slidably connected to the mounting plate 24. Two L-shaped support plates 26 are fixed on the connecting plate 25. A second pressure roller 27 is arranged horizontally between the support plates 26. The second pressure roller 27 is located directly above the winding shaft 21 and uses its own weight to press the winding layer downward, making the rubber layer more dense and regular.

[0037] As another further optimization implementation, in order to ensure the stability of the compression, a connecting rod 29 is also provided between the two support plates 26. A counterweight 28 is hung on the connecting rod 29. The counterweight of the compression device can be adjusted according to the size of the rubber pad, so that the rubber pad is rolled up and compressed synchronously. The compression effect of the second pressure roller 27 on the rubber roll is enhanced by the counterweight method, which facilitates the subsequent packaging.

[0038] The vulcanized rubber receiving device of this utility model has a reasonable structure. It realizes the automatic trimming of the flash of vulcanized rubber through the cutting mechanism, and achieves stable and efficient winding through the multi-axis structure of the winding machine and the pressing device. It has the advantages of compact structure, simple operation and high processing efficiency, and is suitable for the receiving process of continuous rubber product production line.

[0039] In summary, the track pressure plate structure of this utility model is reasonable, easy to install, and has reliable limiting. It has good adaptability and safety performance, and is suitable for various track installation scenarios, especially for track systems that require the use of rubber pressure strips for shock absorption and limiting.
