[0017] 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.
[0018] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a glove counting machine, including a U-shaped plate 1, a support frame 2 fixed to the bottom of the U-shaped plate 1, and rollers 3 provided at the bottom of the support frame 2, an L-shaped plate 8 fixed to one top end of the U-shaped plate 1, and a photoelectric sensor 9 provided on the lower top surface of the L-shaped plate 8, a counter 10 provided on the front side of the U-shaped plate 1, a control cabinet 11 provided on the upper bottom surface of the support frame 2, and a display screen provided on the door panel of the control cabinet 11, a conveying mechanism provided inside the U-shaped plate 1, a centering guide mechanism provided inside the U-shaped plate 1 above the conveying mechanism, and the centering guide mechanism is located at the other end away from the L-shaped plate 8, and an anti-slip mechanism provided at the bottom of the support frame 2.
[0019] The conveying mechanism includes a driven roller 4 and a driving roller 5. The driven roller 4 and the driving roller 5 are rotatably mounted on the inner ends of the U-shaped plate 1 through sealed bearings, and the outer sides of the driven roller 4 and the driving roller 5 are in close contact with the inner sides of the inner ends of the conveyor belt 6, respectively. One end of the driving roller 5 is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 7, and the outer wall of the servo motor 7 is fixed to the outer wall of the U-shaped plate 1 through a mounting plate, which can convey gloves.
[0020] Three photoelectric sensors 9 are evenly spaced on the lower surface of the top of the L-shaped plate 8, and the photoelectric sensors 9 are located directly above the middle of the conveyor belt 6. The three equally spaced photoelectric sensors 9 form a triple detection area. The counting logic of "two out of three" (that is, counting only occurs when any two sensors detect the glove signal at the same time) can effectively avoid counting errors caused by misjudgment by a single sensor, partial obstruction by the glove, or slight overlap. Compared with counting by a single sensor, the counting accuracy is greatly improved, ensuring the reliability of the counting results.
[0021] The centering guide mechanism includes a fixed plate 12. Fixed plates 12 are fixed to the front and rear sides of the top of the U-shaped plate 1. A first lead screw 13 is threaded through the middle of the fixed plate 12, and one end of the first lead screw 13 is rotatably connected to the middle of the guide plate 14 via a sealed bearing. A first handle 15 is fixed to the other end of the first lead screw 13. The bottom of the guide plate 14 is in contact with the top of the conveyor belt 6. Guide rods 16 are fixed to both ends of one side of the guide plate 14, and the ends of the guide rods 16 penetrate the interior of the fixed plate 12 and are slidably connected to the fixed plate 12. One end of an elastic rubber sheet 22 is fixedly connected to one end of the guide plate 14, and the elastic rubber sheet 22 is away from the L-shaped plate 8. The other end is fixedly connected to the inner side of the U-shaped plate 1, and the bottom of the elastic rubber sheet 22 is in contact with the top of the conveyor belt 6. Moreover, the elastic rubber sheet 22 is designed with an inclination. By rotating the first handle 15 to adjust the first lead screw 13, the spacing of the guide plate 14 can be flexibly adjusted to accommodate gloves of different widths and expand the applicability of the equipment. The sliding connection between the guide rod 16 and the fixed plate 12 and the application of the sealed bearing make the adjustment process smoother and more stable. The inclination design of the elastic rubber sheet 22 can push the glove back to the center line position of the conveyor belt 6 in time when the glove shifts by using the lateral force generated by its own inclination angle, ensuring that the glove always moves within the effective detection area of the photoelectric sensor 9 and avoiding missed detection.
[0022] The outer side of the guide rod 16 is provided with scale lines 17, which provide operators with a clear and intuitive adjustment reference, making the adjustment of the spacing of the guide plates 14 more precise. No additional measuring tools are needed, reducing the difficulty of operation and improving the efficiency of equipment adjustment. At the same time, it ensures that the guide plates 14 on both sides are adjusted symmetrically, enhancing the centering guidance effect.
[0023] The fixed plate 12, the first lead screw 13, the guide plate 14, the first handle 15, the guide rod 16, and the scale line 17 are all symmetrically distributed about the central axis of the conveyor belt 6.
[0024] The anti-slip mechanism includes a second lead screw 18. The second lead screw 18 is threaded through the bottom of the support frame 2, and a pressure plate 19 is fixed to the lower end of the second lead screw 18. Anti-slip rubber 20 is fixed to the bottom of the pressure plate 19. There are two second lead screws 18 on the front and rear sides of the bottom of the support frame 2. A second handle 21 is fixed to the top of the second lead screw 18. By rotating the second handle 21, the second lead screw 18 can be easily controlled to drive the pressure plate 19 to rise and fall, realizing the rapid switching between the moving and fixed states of the equipment.
[0025] The control cabinet 11 is the core control unit. Its internal mainboard is connected to the servo motor 7, photoelectric sensor 9, counter 10 and display screen through wires. The servo motor 7 receives the pulse signal from the control cabinet 11 to realize the start and stop and speed adjustment of the conveyor belt 6. The three photoelectric sensors 9 transmit the detected glove signal to the control cabinet 11 in real time. After the control cabinet 11 makes a "two out of three" logic judgment, it sends a counting command to the counter 10. The counting data of the counter 10 is displayed on the display screen in sync, forming a complete control chain of "detection-judgment-counting-display".
[0026] Working principle: When using this glove counting machine, firstly, according to the width of the gloves to be counted, turn the first handle 15 to rotate the first lead screw 13, causing the guide plate 14 to slide along the guide rod 16. By observing the scale line 17 on the outer side of the guide rod 16, adjust the two guide plates 14 to a suitable distance to ensure that the gloves are centered on the conveyor belt 6. At the same time, the inclined elastic rubber sheet 22 also adjusts its position accordingly, ready to correct any misaligned gloves.
[0027] Next, move the equipment to the working position, turn the second handle 21, so that the second lead screw 18 drives the pressure plate 19 to descend until the anti-slip rubber 20 at the bottom of the pressure plate 19 is in close contact with the ground, and fix the equipment to prevent it from sliding during operation.
[0028] Then, set the relevant parameters on the display screen of control cabinet 11, such as the number of counts and batches, and start the servo motor 7. The drive roller 5 rotates under the drive of the servo motor 7, driving the conveyor belt 6 to run. Place the batch of gloves neatly at the starting end of the conveyor belt 6, and the gloves are conveyed forward by the conveyor belt 6.
[0029] During the conveying process, if the glove shifts and comes into contact with the elastic rubber sheet 22, the elastic rubber sheet 22, being of an inclined design, will guide the glove back to the centerline of the conveyor belt 6, ensuring that the glove always moves within the effective detection area of the photoelectric sensor 9. When the glove passes sequentially through the three photoelectric sensors 9 below the L-shaped plate 8, according to the "two out of three" counting logic, as long as any two photoelectric sensors 9 simultaneously detect the glove signal, the counter 10 will start counting and display the counting result on the display screen of the control cabinet 11 in real time.
[0030] When the count reaches the preset value, the device will issue a prompt signal, and the operator can then remove the counted gloves for packaging. If the device needs to be moved to another location, simply turn the second handle 21 upwards to lift the pressure plate 19, and use the rollers 3 to easily move the device to the designated location. Then repeat the above fixing and operation steps to continue counting gloves.
[0031] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
