[0022] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. However, the following embodiments are only preferred embodiments of this utility model and not all of them. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments in the implementation methods without creative effort are all within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0023] like Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a spoon handle tearing machine. The spoon handle includes a metal part 51 and an injection molded part 52. Both sides of the injection molded part 52 have burrs along the length of the spoon handle. One end of the injection molded part 52 has a through hole 53. The tearing machine includes at least one support 2 and a tearing mechanism 3.
[0024] The support member 2 includes a base plate 21, a positioning post 23 adapted to the through hole 53 on the base plate 21, and two limiting plates 24 on the base plate 21. When the ladle handle is located on the support member 2, the limiting plates 24 are in contact with the two sides of the injection molded part 52, and the limiting plates 24 do not contact the rough edge waste.
[0025] The tearing mechanism 3 includes a drive member 31 and at least one tearing component 32. The drive member 31 is used to drive the tearing component 32 to move along the length direction of the spoon handle. The tearing component 32 includes an adjusting member 321 and two clamping units 323 for clamping the rough edge waste. The adjusting member 321 is used to drive the two clamping units 323 to move closer or further away from each other (the adjusting member 321 can be a cylinder. The two output ends of the adjusting member 321 are fixedly mounted with vertical plates 322. Each vertical plate 322 is fixed with a clamping unit 323. The clamping unit 323 can be a pneumatic gripper. The adjusting member 321 and the vertical plate 322 can also be regarded as a pneumatic gripper structure. The specific pneumatic gripper is a relatively existing technology and will not be described in detail here).
[0026] In use, place the spoon handle to be torn on the support 2. The positioning post 23 enables quick positioning of the spoon handle, and the limiting plate 24 limits the two sides of the injection molded part 52 of the spoon handle to ensure that it is stable on the support 2. Then, adjust the drive 31 to move the tearing assembly 32 so that the two clamping units 323 are respectively facing one end of the two rough edges. Then, adjust the adjusting part 321 to move the two clamping units 323 closer to one end of the rough edge until the clamping unit 323 can clamp and fix one end of the rough edge. After the clamping unit 323 clamps and fixes one end of the rough edge, adjust the drive 31 to move the tearing assembly 32 (i.e., the clamping unit 323) along the length of the spoon handle, thereby completing the automatic tearing of the rough edge, avoiding the trouble of traditional manual tearing, which not only greatly improves efficiency but also reduces the intensity of manual labor.
[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, at least one pneumatic suction cup 4 is provided on the base plate 21;
[0028] By setting up the pneumatic suction cup 4, when the spoon handle is placed on the support 2, it is fixed more stably on the support 2 by the adsorption of the pneumatic suction cup 4, thereby ensuring more stable tearing work.
[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, the support member 2 also includes a limiting block 22, and the limiting block 22 is provided with a limiting groove 221. When the spoon handle is located on the support member 2, the inner wall of the limiting groove 221 is in contact with the end of the injection molded part 52 away from the through hole 53.
[0030] Furthermore, by setting such a limiting block 22 and limiting groove 221, when the spoon handle is located on the support member 2, the limiting groove 221 can further limit one end of the injection molded part 52, thereby making the spoon handle more stable on the support member 2.
[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, it also includes a workbench 1, and a support member 2 is detachably fixed to the workbench 1 (specifically, it can be fixed by screws. At the same time, the distance between the limiting block 22 and the bottom plate 21 is adjustable, so that the limiting block 22 can limit the handles of different lengths of soup spoons). Thus, when the support member 2 is damaged during use, it is convenient to quickly disassemble, repair or replace the support member 2. The top surface of the workbench 1 is provided with a discharge port 11.
[0032] By setting the discharge port 11, the adjusting drive 31 drives the tearing edge assembly 32 to move along the length of the ladle handle. After the automatic tearing of the rough edge waste is completed, the adjusting drive 31 continues to drive the tearing edge assembly 32 to move until the clamping unit 323 is directly above the discharge port 11. At this time, the adjusting clamping unit 323 no longer fixes the rough edge waste, so that the torn rough edge waste falls through the discharge port 11, preventing it from piling up on the workbench 1.
[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, a collection box 6 is slidably provided on one side of the workbench 1, and the collection box 6 is located below the discharge port 11;
[0034] By setting up the collection box 6, the rough edges that fall from the discharge port 11 can be collected, avoiding the trouble of manual cleaning and collection, and facilitating the unified treatment of the rough edges in the future.
[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the driving component 31 is a cylinder, and the output end of the cylinder is fixedly connected to the support plate 33. The bottom surface of the support plate 33 is provided with at least one tearing edge component 32 and a slider. The worktable 1 is provided with a slide rail 7, and the slider is slidably disposed on the slide rail 7.
[0036] Here, we take as an example five parallel support plates 33 with both ends flush, set on the top surface of the workbench 1 along the direction perpendicular to the slide rail 7. Thus, five tearing edge components 32 are also provided and are flush with each other, so as to realize the work of tearing off the rough edges of five spoon handles at one time.
[0037] The slide rail 7 and slider provide excellent guidance, making the movement of the drive component 31, support plate 33 and tearing edge assembly 32 more stable.
[0038] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
