Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of computerized flat knitting machine technology, specifically a frame structure for a computerized flat knitting machine. Background Technology

[0002] The frame of a computerized flat knitting machine is the "skeleton" of the entire machine. It is a steel (or cast iron) frame that supports and maintains the precision of all moving parts, needle bed, knitting head, fabric roll, yarn frame, and electrical control. It provides a 0.05 mm level plane reference for the needle bed and guide rails, and reserves all external interfaces for yarn frame, fabric roll, electrical control, etc., so that future upgrades do not require too much disassembly.

[0003] Currently, some computerized flat knitting machines have exposed cable structures, which affects other operations. Some computerized flat knitting machines have hollow guide beams to hide some cables inside, but in actual use, the space inside the guide beams is relatively small, making wiring and subsequent maintenance inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a frame structure for a computerized flat knitting machine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A frame structure for a computerized flat knitting machine, comprising:

[0007] The frame body includes two support side plates, which are fixedly installed on the upper side of the base. A connecting frame is fixedly installed between the two bases. Weight reduction grooves are interlaced in the front and rear directions of the bases. Supports are fixedly installed at the front and rear ends of the bottom of the bases.

[0008] The guide beam includes a bottom frame strip, which is fixedly installed on the upper rear end of two support side plates. A top frame strip is fixedly fastened to the upper side of the bottom frame strip, and a cable routing groove is provided between the bottom frame strip and the top frame strip.

[0009] Furthermore, mounting slots are interspersed on both sides of the support frame.

[0010] Furthermore, reinforcing ribs are fixedly installed on the front and rear edges and the middle of the inner surface of the support side plate, a first mounting groove is opened at the front upper side of the support side plate, a second mounting groove is opened at the rear upper side of the support side plate, and a shaft mounting groove is intersected in the middle of the upper edge of the support side plate.

[0011] Furthermore, a wire opening is provided on the rear surface of the bottom frame strip.

[0012] Furthermore, the top frame strip has pre-drilled screw holes on both sides of its upper surface.

[0013] Furthermore, the middle and both ends of the splice joint of the bottom frame strip and the top frame strip are fixed to each other by fastening bolts.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] The guide rail beam is designed as an assembly structure, with hollow sections in the bottom and top frame bars serving as cable trays. Before assembly, the guide rail and machine head can be fixed to the upper surface of the top frame bar, and cables, timing belts, and other structures can be placed in the cable tray on the upper side of the bottom frame bar. Finally, the top frame bar carrying the guide rail and machine body is snapped onto the bottom frame bar, and the cables and other structures are encapsulated inside the cable tray. This design ensures the overall strength of the guide rail beam while allowing for a more rational and standardized wiring method, providing workers with a wider field of vision and space, and facilitating maintenance.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-3In this embodiment of the utility model, a frame structure for a computerized flat knitting machine includes a frame body 1 and a guide beam 2. The frame body 1 includes two support side plates 106. The guide beam 2 includes a bottom frame strip 201, which is fixedly installed on the upper rear end of the two support side plates 106. A top frame strip 202 is fixedly fastened to the upper side of the bottom frame strip 201. A wiring groove 203 is provided between the bottom frame strip 201 and the top frame strip 202.

[0022] Specifically, the guide rail beam 2 is designed as an assembly structure, and the middle of the bottom frame 201 and the top frame 202 is designed as a hollow structure to serve as a cable tray 203. Before assembly, the guide rail and machine head can be fixedly installed on the upper surface of the top frame 202, and the cables, timing belts and other structures can be placed in the cable tray 203 on the upper side of the bottom frame 201. Finally, the top frame 202 carrying the guide rail and machine body is snapped onto the bottom frame 201, and the cables and other structures are encapsulated inside the cable tray 203. While ensuring the overall strength of the guide rail beam 2, it can provide a more reasonable and standardized wiring method, provide the staff with a wider operating field of vision and space, and facilitate maintenance.
