[0026] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature.

[0028] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used in this application is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application. The term "and / or" as used in this application includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0029] In related technologies, books typically come in three different sizes. When cutting books, three different sized pressure plates are needed to keep the book fixed and flat during the cutting process, ensuring cutting quality. However, each time the pressure plate needs to be changed, the equipment must be shut down and the power cut off. Manual replacement is time-consuming and labor-intensive, affecting production efficiency.
[0030] Therefore, please refer to Figure 1 This application provides a pre-compression device 100 to meet the cutting needs of three common book sizes. The pre-compression device 100 includes a base 40, a first pre-compression module 10 disposed on the base 40, the first pre-compression module 10 including at least one first pressing member 11 movable relative to the base 40 along the height direction of the pre-compression device 100; a second pre-compression module 20 disposed on the base 40, the second pre-compression module 20 including at least two second pressing members 21 movably disposed relative to the base 40 along the height direction of the pre-compression device 100, the at least two second pressing members 21 being spaced apart along a first direction on the outside of the first pressing member 11; and a third pre-compression module 30 disposed on the base 40, the third pre-compression module 30 including at least two third pressing members 31 movably disposed relative to the base 40 along the height direction of the pre-compression device 100, the at least two third pressing members 31 being spaced apart along the first direction on the outside of the second pressing members 21 and located on the side of the second pressing members 21 opposite to the first pressing member 11.
[0031] Thus, when pre-pressing small-sized books, the pre-pressing device 100 controls the first pressing component 11 in the first pre-pressing module 10 to press the book down, while the second pressing component 21 and the third pressing component 31 are raised or remain stationary, i.e., they do not perform a pressing action. When pre-pressing medium-sized books, the pre-pressing device 100 controls the first pre-pressing module 10 and the second pre-pressing module 20 to operate simultaneously, with the first pressing component 11 and the second pressing component 21 simultaneously pre-pressing the book, while the third pressing component 31 is raised or remains stationary, i.e., it does not perform a pressing action. When pre-pressing large-sized books, the pre-pressing device 100 controls the first pre-pressing module 10, the second pre-pressing module 20, and the third pre-pressing module 30 to operate together, with the first pressing component 11, the second pressing component 21, and the third pressing component 31 simultaneously pre-pressing the book. Different pre-compression modules are controlled to operate according to different book sizes, ensuring that books of various sizes are evenly compressed, facilitating cutting. Furthermore, the entire process requires no machine downtime for disassembling and reassembling the pressing components, making switching convenient, operation flexible, saving production time, and improving production efficiency.
[0032] The first direction is set at an angle to the height direction of the pre-compression device 100. For ease of explanation, the first direction is defined as horizontal, and the height direction of the pre-compression device 100 is defined as being consistent with the direction of gravity.
[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the first preload module 10 includes a first drive member 12, the output end of which is connected to the first pressing member 11, and the first drive member 12 provides a power source for the first pressing member 11.
[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, in a specific embodiment, a first pressing member 11 and a first driving member 12 are respectively provided.
[0035] In more specific embodiments, at least two first pressing members 11 and at least two first driving members 12 are provided. The at least two first driving members 12 are spaced apart, and the output end of each first driving member 12 is connected to a first pressing member 11. When the first pre-pressing module 10 is in operation, multiple first driving members 12 are driven simultaneously, which is flexible in operation, fast in response, and the pressing process of each first pressing member 11 does not affect each other.
[0036] In another specific embodiment, at least two first pressing members 11 are provided, and the at least two first pressing members 11 are spaced apart. At least one first driving member 12 is provided, and the output end of the first driving member 12 is connected to at least two first pressing members 11. That is, one first driving member 12 can drive at least two first pressing members 11 to press down the book at the same time, which can reduce the number of first driving members 12, reduce space occupation, and help reduce costs.
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the second preload module 20 includes a second drive member 22, the output end of which is connected to the second pressing member 21, and the second drive member 22 provides a power source for the second pressing member 21.
[0038] In one specific embodiment, at least two second driving members 22 are provided, spaced apart, and the output terminal of each second driving member 22 is connected to a corresponding second pressing member 21. In another specific embodiment, at least one second driving member 22 is provided, and the output terminal of the second driving member 22 is connected to at least two second pressing members 21. The arrangement of the second driving member 22 is similar to that of the first driving member 12, and the specific effects can be referred to the first driving member 12, which will not be described in detail here.
[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the third preload module 30 includes a third drive member 32, the output end of which is connected to the third pressing member 31, and the third drive member 32 provides a power source for the third pressing member 31.
[0040] In one specific embodiment, at least two second driving members 22 are provided, spaced apart, and the output terminal of each second driving member 22 is connected to a corresponding second pressing member 21. In another specific embodiment, at least one third driving member 32 is provided, and the output terminal of the third driving member 32 is connected to at least one third pressing member 31. The configuration of the third driving member 32 is similar to that of the first driving member 12, and the specific effects can be referred to the first driving member 12, which will not be described in detail here.
[0041] In a specific embodiment, the first driving member 12, the second driving member 22 and the third driving member 32 can be respectively configured as a cylinder, an electric push rod, etc.
[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the third pre-compression module 30 includes a third pressing member 31; the second pre-compression module 20 includes two second pressing members 21, with the third pressing member 31 positioned between the two second pressing members 21; the first pre-compression module 10 includes two first pressing members 11, with each second pressing member 21 positioned between a first pressing member 11 and a third pressing member 31. This arrangement forms a symmetrical arrangement of the first pre-compression module 10 and the second pre-compression module 20 with the third pressing member 31 as the center, facilitating uniform force distribution on the book and ensuring cutting quality.
[0043] like Figure 1As shown, in a specific embodiment, in the third pre-compression module 30, the third pressing member 31 is eccentrically positioned relative to the axis of the third driving member 32, with the axis of the third pressing member 31 located on the side of the axis of the third driving member 32 away from the second pre-compression module 20. This arrangement makes the arrangement of the third driving member 32 and the second driving member 22 more compact, which helps to reduce the space occupied.
[0044] like Figure 1 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the first pressing member 11, the second pressing member 21 and the third pressing member 31 all include a pressure plate 1001, that is, the pressure plate 1001 is used to pre-press the book. The pre-pressing area is large, which is conducive to the pre-pressing and flattening of the book, and thus facilitates cutting.
[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, in a specific embodiment, at least one of the first pressing member 11, the second pressing member 21 and the third pressing member 31 includes at least two pressure plates 1001 spaced apart along the first direction, without the need to set a single pressure plate 1001, which helps to reduce the amount of material used and lower costs.
[0046] In a specific embodiment, a smooth transition is formed between the downward-facing surface of the pressure plate 1001 and the side surface of the pressure plate 1001 to reduce stress concentration at the edge of the pressure plate 1001 and reduce the formation of indentations.
[0047] In a specific embodiment, the pre-compression device 100 further includes a pre-compression platform. The pre-compression platform is provided below the first pre-compression module 10, the second pre-compression module 20 and the third pre-compression module 30 for laying books flat.
[0048] This application also provides a cutting system, including a cutting device and the aforementioned pre-pressing device 100. The cutting device includes a cutting tool that can cut the book after the pre-pressing device 100 presses it down. By setting up the pre-pressing device 100, different pre-pressing modules can be controlled to operate for different sizes of books without stopping the machine for disassembly and assembly. This facilitates rapid pre-pressing and cutting with the cutting tool, thereby improving the production efficiency of the entire cutting system.
[0049] 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.
[0050] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the patent protection scope of this application should be determined by the appended claims.
