Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of filter element production technology, specifically relating to an adjustable mold for filter elements. Background Technology

[0002] Existing air conditioning filter edge-fitting equipment includes a support device with a fixed support plate. The air conditioning filter element includes a filter element body, a long side A, and a short side B located on the outer surface of the filter element body C. After the long side is fitted, the short side is fitted. However, the support plate only supports the filter element body. Since there is no supporting surface on the other side of the short side during the fitting process, the air conditioning filter element is compressed, resulting in an unsightly product. In addition, changing the model requires manual removal of screws to replace the support plate, and the width also needs to be manually adjusted. This is not suitable for various types of air conditioning filter element products, and the production line is inefficient when changing air conditioning filter element models. There is also the problem of inaccurate manual adjustment. To solve at least one of the above technical problems, it is necessary to develop an adjustable filter element mold. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an adjustable filter element mold to solve the aforementioned technical problems. A first driving component adjusts the relative distance between the first and second support plate components to a target spacing. The ends of the first and second support plate components are respectively fitted into the filter element body near the pre-fitting area of ​​the short side. During the short side fitting process, the first driving component drives the first and second support plate components to move a certain distance in opposite directions, providing support to the opposite side of the short side, forming a sandwich structure of the first / second support plate components, the end of the filter element body, and the fitting device, thus avoiding compression of the filter element body during the short side fitting process. The spacing is controlled by the first driving component, making it suitable for various types of air conditioning filter element products of different lengths, with high adjustment efficiency and accuracy.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] An adjustable filter cartridge mold includes a frame, a first support plate assembly and a second support plate assembly spaced apart on the frame, and a first drive assembly is provided on the frame to cause the first support plate assembly and the second support plate assembly to move toward each other or backwards.

[0006] Both the first and second support plate assemblies are movably connected to the frame. The relative distance between the first and second support plate assemblies is adjustable by their opposing or receding movements. The first drive assembly adjusts the relative distance between the first and second support plate assemblies to the target distance. The ends of the first and second support plate assemblies are respectively fitted into the pre-fitting area near the short side of the filter body. During the short side fitting process, the first drive assembly drives the first and second support plate assemblies to move a certain distance in opposite directions, providing support to the opposite side of the short side, forming a sandwich structure consisting of the first / second support plate assembly, the end of the filter body, and the fitting device, thus preventing compression of the filter body during short side fitting. The distance is controlled by the first drive assembly, making it suitable for various types and lengths of air conditioning filter products, with high adjustment efficiency and accuracy.

[0007] Preferably, the first support plate assembly is slidably connected to the top of the frame; the second support plate assembly is also slidably connected to the top of the frame. This allows the first and second support plate assemblies to slide on the frame, adjusting their relative distance under the action of the first drive assembly.

[0008] Preferably, the first support plate assembly and the second support plate assembly are both vertically upward, with their vertical end faces on the same horizontal plane. Projected horizontally, the projection surfaces of the first and second support plate assemblies overlap. This allows the relative spacing between the first and second support plate assemblies to be adjusted along the same straight line to accommodate air conditioning filter products of different lengths. Simultaneously, during the bonding process along the shorter side, they move in opposite directions, providing support along the same straight line, resulting in high bonding stability.

[0009] Preferably, the first support plate assembly includes a first plate body, a second plate body, and a first support plate partially fitted between the first plate body and the second plate body;

[0010] The second support plate assembly includes a third plate, a fourth plate, and a second support plate partially fitted between the third and fourth plates. The projections of the first and second plates along the moving direction overlap; the projections of the third and fourth plates along the moving direction overlap; the first support plate disposed between the first and second plates, and the second support plate disposed between the third and fourth plates, facilitate installation and disassembly.

[0011] Preferably, the frame is equipped with guide rails;

[0012] Both the first plate and the second plate are provided with a first slider below them, and the first slider is slidably connected to the guide rail;

[0013] A second slider is provided below both the third and fourth plates, and the second slider is slidably connected to the guide rail. The guide rail, the first slider, and the second slider are arranged symmetrically in groups. The first slider is provided so that the first support plate assembly moves above the frame when it is driven by the first drive assembly; the second slider is provided so that the second support plate assembly moves above the frame when it is driven by the first drive assembly; thereby adjusting the relative distance between the first and second support plates and providing a support surface for the fitting process.

[0014] Preferably, the first support plate assembly further includes a second drive assembly that moves the first plate and the second plate to complete the clamping or releasing action;

[0015] The second support plate assembly also includes a third drive assembly that moves the third and fourth plates to perform clamping or releasing actions. This facilitates the installation and removal of the first and second plates, improving replacement efficiency. Both the second and third drive assemblies are cylinders. The first and second plates can move relative to each other to clamp the first support plate or release it when replacement is needed; the third and fourth plates can move relative to each other to clamp the second support plate or release it when replacement is needed. One end of the second drive assembly is fixed to the first plate; the movable end of the second drive assembly passes through the first plate and connects to it. One end of the third drive assembly is fixed to the third plate; the movable end of the third drive assembly passes through the third plate and connects to it.

[0016] Preferably, the first drive assembly includes a drive device connected to the frame at one end and a forward and reverse threaded rod connected to the drive device. The forward and reverse threaded rod is threaded to the first support plate assembly and the second support plate assembly. One end of the forward and reverse threaded rod has a left-hand thread, and the other end has a right-hand thread. If the left-hand thread is threaded to the first and second plates, then the right-hand thread is threaded to the third and fourth plates. The drive device is specifically a pneumatic or electric drive device, such as a motor, which rotates the forward and reverse threaded rod, thereby driving the first and second support plate assemblies to move towards each other or away from each other to adjust the distance between the first and second support plates.

[0017] This application has achieved beneficial technical effects:

[0018] This invention uses a first driving component to adjust the relative distance between the first and second support plate components to a target spacing. The ends of the first and second support plate components are respectively fitted into the filter body near the short side pre-fitting area. During the short side fitting process, the first driving component drives the first and second support plate components to move a certain distance in opposite directions, so that the opposite side of the short side fitting has a supporting function, forming a sandwich structure of the first / second support plate components, the end of the filter body, and the fitting device, avoiding compression of the filter body during the short side fitting process. The spacing is controlled by the first driving component, which is suitable for various types of air conditioning filter products of different lengths, with high adjustment efficiency and accuracy.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model or the prior art, the specific implementation methods of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the drawings described below are merely some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other drawings and other implementation methods can be obtained based on these drawings without any creative effort.

[0025] The technical solution of this utility model will be described in detail below with specific embodiments.

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 3As shown, an adjustable filter mold includes a frame 20, and has a first support plate assembly 21 and a second support plate assembly 22 disposed at intervals on the frame 20. The frame 20 is provided with a first drive assembly that causes the first support plate assembly 21 and the second support plate assembly 22 to move toward each other or backwards.

[0027] Both the first support plate assembly 21 and the second support plate assembly 22 are movably connected to the frame 20. The opposing or opposing movements of the first support plate assembly 21 and the second support plate assembly 22 make the distance between them adjustable. The relative distance between the first support plate assembly 21 and the second support plate assembly 22 is adjusted to the target distance by the first drive assembly. The ends of the first support plate assembly 21 and the second support plate assembly 22 are respectively fitted into the filter body near the short side pre-fitting area. During the short side fitting process, the first drive assembly drives the first support plate assembly 21 and the second support plate assembly 22 to move a certain distance in opposite directions, so that the opposite side of the short side fitting has a supporting function, forming a sandwich structure of the first support plate assembly 21 / second support plate assembly 22, the end of the filter body, and the fitting device, avoiding the squeezing of the filter body during the short side fitting process. The distance is controlled by the first drive assembly, which is suitable for various types of air conditioning filter products of different lengths, with high adjustment efficiency and high accuracy. After the edge bonding is completed, the first drive component drives the first support plate assembly 21 and the second support plate assembly 22 to move a certain distance towards each other, thereby facilitating the removal of the filter element from the mold after edge bonding.

[0028] The first support plate assembly 21 is slidably connected to the top of the frame 20; the second support plate assembly 22 is slidably connected to the top of the frame 20. This allows the first support plate assembly 21 and the second support plate assembly 22 to slide on the frame 20, and their relative distance can be adjusted under the action of the first drive assembly.

[0029] The first support plate assembly 21 and the second support plate assembly 22 are both vertically upward, with the vertical end faces of the first and second support plate assemblies 21 and 22 on the same horizontal plane. Projected horizontally, the projection surfaces of the first and second support plate assemblies 21 and 22 overlap. This allows for adjustment of the relative spacing between the first and second support plate assemblies 21 and 22 along the same straight line to accommodate air conditioning filter products of different lengths. Simultaneously, during the bonding process along the shorter side, they move in opposite directions, providing support along the same straight line, resulting in high bonding stability.

[0030] The first support plate assembly 21 includes a first plate 211, a second plate 212, and a first support plate 213 partially fitted between the first plate 211 and the second plate 212;

[0031] The second support plate assembly 22 includes a third plate 221, a fourth plate 222, and a second support plate 223 partially fitted between the third plate 221 and the fourth plate 222. The projections of the first plate 211 and the second plate 212 along the moving direction overlap each other; the projections of the third plate 221 and the fourth plate 222 along the moving direction overlap each other; the first support plate 213 disposed between the first plate 211 and the second plate 212, and the second support plate 223 disposed between the third plate 221 and the fourth plate 222, facilitate installation and disassembly.

[0032] The frame 20 is provided with guide rails 201;

[0033] A first slider 214 is provided below both the first plate 211 and the second plate 212, and the first slider 214 is slidably connected to the guide rail 201.

[0034] A second slider 224 is provided below both the third plate 221 and the fourth plate 222, and the second slider 224 is slidably connected to the guide rail 201. The guide rail 201, the first slider 214, and the second slider 224 are arranged symmetrically in groups. The first slider 214 is provided so that the first support plate assembly 21 moves above the frame 20 when it is driven by the first drive assembly. The second slider 224 is provided so that the second support plate assembly moves above the frame 20 when it is driven by the first drive assembly. This adjusts the relative distance between the first support plate 213 and the second support plate 223 and provides a support surface for the bonding process.

[0035] The first support plate assembly 21 further includes a second drive assembly 215 that moves the first plate 211 and the second plate 212 to complete the clamping or releasing action;

[0036] The second support plate assembly 22 further includes a third drive assembly 225 that moves the third plate 221 and the fourth plate 222 to perform clamping or releasing actions. This facilitates the installation and removal of the first plate 211 and the second plate 212, improving replacement efficiency. Both the second drive assembly 215 and the third drive assembly 225 are cylinders. The first plate 211 and the second plate 212 can move relative to each other to clamp the first support plate 213 or release it when replacement is needed. The third plate 221 and the fourth plate 222 can move relative to each other to clamp the second support plate 223 or release it when replacement is needed. One end of the second drive assembly 215 is fixed to the first plate 211; the movable end of the second drive assembly 215 passes through the first plate 211 and connects to the second plate 212. One end of the third drive assembly 225 is fixed to the third plate 221; the movable end of the third drive assembly 225 passes through the third plate 221 and connects to the fourth plate 222.

[0037] This technical solution is particularly suitable for edge bonding operations of automotive air conditioning filters, specifically for edge bonding equipment on 2 and 4 sides of automotive air conditioning filters.

[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the first drive assembly includes a drive device 233 connected to the frame 20 at one end, and a forward and reverse threaded rod 234 driven by the drive device 233. The forward and reverse threaded rod 234 is threaded to the first support plate assembly 21 and the second support plate assembly 22. One end of the forward and reverse threaded rod 234 has a left-hand thread and the other end has a right-hand thread. For example, if the left-hand thread is threaded to the first plate 211 and the second plate 212, then the right-hand thread is threaded to the third plate 221 and the fourth plate 222. The drive device 233 is specifically a pneumatic or electric drive device, such as a motor, which causes the forward and reverse threaded rod 234 to rotate, thereby driving the first support plate assembly 21 and the second support plate assembly 22 to move towards each other or away from each other, so as to adjust the distance between the first support plate 213 and the second support plate 223.
