AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing folding process for umbrella fabric is inefficient, resulting in uneven and unsightly pleats, which leads to low production efficiency and an inability to meet market demand.

Method used

The umbrella folding mechanism, which uses an inner mold and an outer mold, achieves an automatic folding process for the umbrella fabric by utilizing the sliding cooperation of the first and second pressing knives. Through the coordinated movement of the inner mold and the embossing component, the folds are made uniform and beautiful.

Benefits of technology

It improves the efficiency and uniformity of umbrella fabric folding, solves the problem of low efficiency in existing manual methods, and achieves the aesthetic effect of automated production.

Abstract

A mechanism for folding umbrella fabric includes an inner mold and an outer mold. The outer mold has an embossing surface with pressing holes. Guide posts are located at the bottom of the outer mold, forming pressing grooves between them. The inner mold presses the umbrella fabric on the embossing surface into the pressing holes. A folding base plate is fixed to the bottom of the guide posts. The folding base plate has an embossing assembly, including a first pressing knife and a second pressing knife. A linkage shaft is located in the linkage hole of the second pressing knife, and the linkage shaft is sleeved in the first groove of the first pressing knife. A push plate is connected to the connecting rod of the second pressing knife. When the push plate moves upward, the connecting rod pushes the second pressing knife. The second pressing knife drives the first pressing knife to rotate synchronously via the linkage shaft. The pre-pressing surface of the first pressing knife rotates out from the pressing groove and extends into the pressing hole, initially pre-pressing the umbrella fabric. The pressing surface of the second pressing knife further presses the umbrella fabric to form pleats. This invention solves the problem of automatic folding from umbrella fabric to folded umbrella fabric, improving the efficiency of folding umbrella fabric and producing uniform and aesthetically pleasing pleats.
