[0020] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0021] Reference Figures 1-3 This application provides a sponge compressor, including a workbench 1. A fixing frame 2 is fixedly connected to the rear of the upper surface of the workbench 1. A compression assembly 3 is provided above the workbench 1. The compression assembly 3 includes clamping plates 301 located on both sides above the workbench 1. A limiting plate 302 is provided below the fixing frame 2. Support blocks 303 are fixedly connected to both sides of the lower surface of the limiting plate 302. A heating strip 304 is provided in front of the limiting plate 302. A pressing strip 305 is provided in front of the heating strip 304. A clip is provided on the lower surface of the pressing strip 305. Extrusion plates 307 are provided above and behind the groove 306 and clamping plate 301. An iron plate 308 is fixedly connected to the end face of the extrusion plate 307 near the fixed frame 2. A clip frame 309 is sleeved around the iron plate 308. A magnetic suction plate 310 is fixedly connected to the end face of the clip frame 309 near the fixed frame 2. The iron plate 308 and the magnetic suction plate 310 attract each other. The iron plate 308 on the extrusion plate 307 is attracted by the magnetic suction plate 310. The installation is simple and convenient for the staff to replace extrusion plates 307 of different sizes, so as to quickly adapt to diverse compression needs.
[0022] A first hydraulic cylinder 4 is fixedly connected to the upper end face of the fixed frame 2. A second hydraulic cylinder 5, a third hydraulic cylinder 6, and a fourth hydraulic cylinder 7 are fixedly connected to the front of the upper end face of the fixed frame 2, respectively. A fifth hydraulic cylinder 8 is fixedly connected to the rear end face of the fixed frame 2. The telescopic ends of the first hydraulic cylinder 4, the second hydraulic cylinder 5, the third hydraulic cylinder 6, the fourth hydraulic cylinder 7, and the fifth hydraulic cylinder 8 all pass through the fixed frame 2. The telescopic end of the second hydraulic cylinder 5 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 302. The telescopic end of the third hydraulic cylinder 6 is fixedly connected to the heating strip 304. The telescopic end of the fourth hydraulic cylinder 7 is fixedly connected to the pressing strip 305. The telescopic ends of the first hydraulic cylinder 4 and the fifth hydraulic cylinder 8 are fixedly connected to the iron plate 308, respectively. The first hydraulic cylinder 4 and the fifth hydraulic cylinder 8 drive the extrusion plate 307 to extrude from the top and the rear, respectively. With the cooperation of the clamping plate 301 and the limiting plate 302, the length, height, and width of the sponge block are shaped in multiple directions, so that the compressed shape is uniform and regular, which is convenient for stacking and transportation.
[0023] Both sides of the lower end face of the workbench 1 are fixedly connected to fixed plates 9. A servo motor 10 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one fixed plate 9. A double-headed threaded rod 11 with opposite thread directions at both ends is rotatably connected between the two fixed plates 9. The output end of the servo motor 10 passes through the fixed plate 9 and is fixedly connected to the double-headed threaded rod 11. A sliding groove 13 is opened through the inside of the workbench 1. Both ends of the double-headed threaded rod 11 are rotatably connected to a moving strip 12 by threads. The moving strip 12 passes through the sliding groove 13. The clamping plate 301 is fixedly connected to the moving strip 12. The servo motor 10 drives the double-headed threaded rod 11 to rotate, causing the moving strip 12 to move closer to the clamping plate 301 synchronously, automatically clamping the sponge block to the specified width, avoiding manual measurement errors and ensuring accurate positioning before compression.
[0024] Working principle: Based on the size of the compressed sponge block, select two corresponding extrusion plates 307, and insert the iron plates 308 on the two extrusion plates 307 into the clip frames 309 on the telescopic ends of the first hydraulic cylinder 4 and the fifth hydraulic cylinder 8 respectively. At the same time, the iron plates 308 and the magnetic suction plate 310 attract each other.
[0025] After installing the two extrusion plates 307, put the sponge block to be compressed into a plastic bag, then place the sponge block on the workbench 1, start the servo motor 10, and the output end of the servo motor 10 rotates to drive the double-threaded rod 11 to rotate. Since the threads at both ends of the double-threaded rod 11 are opposite, the rotation of the double-threaded rod 11 drives the moving strips 12 at both ends to move closer to each other in the slide groove 13. The movement of the two moving strips 12 drives the two clamping plates 301 to move closer to each other until the two clamping plates 301 clamp the sponge block and clamp the sponge block to the specified width.
[0026] Start the second hydraulic cylinder 5. The extension end of the second hydraulic cylinder 5 moves, causing the limit plate 302 to move downward until the support block 303 at the lower end of the limit plate 302 contacts the worktable 1. Insert the suction pipe of the vacuum pump into the plastic bag. Then start the fourth hydraulic cylinder 7. The extension end of the fourth hydraulic cylinder 7 moves, causing the pressing strip 305 to move until the pressing strip 305 presses down on the opening end of the plastic bag. At the same time, the suction pipe is located in the slot 306 of the pressing strip 305. Start the vacuum pump. The suction pipe removes the air from inside the plastic bag, compressing the plastic bag and the sponge block.
[0027] The fifth hydraulic cylinder 8 is activated. The telescopic end of the fifth hydraulic cylinder 8 moves, causing the magnetic suction plate 310, iron plate 308, and extrusion plate 307 to move. The extrusion plate 307 enters the rear between the two clamping plates 301. The clamping plates 301 push the sponge block, pressing it against the limiting plate 302 until the sponge block is compressed to the specified length. Then, the first hydraulic cylinder 4 is activated. The telescopic end of the first hydraulic cylinder 4 moves, causing the magnetic suction plate 310, iron plate 308, and extrusion plate 307 below the fixing frame 2 to move. The extrusion plate 307 enters the upper part between the two clamping plates 301. The clamping plates 301 press down on the sponge block, compressing it to the specified height. By extruding the sponge block from multiple directions, the sponge block can be compressed into a specified shape, and the shape is uniform, which is convenient for later transportation.
[0028] After the air in the plastic bag is removed, the third hydraulic cylinder 6 and the heating strip 304 are activated. The heating strip 304 releases heat, and the telescopic end of the third hydraulic cylinder 6 drives the heating strip 304 to move until the heating strip 304 presses down on the plastic bag. The heat from the heating strip 304 heats and seals the plastic bag. After sealing, multiple hydraulic cylinders and the servo motor 10 are activated simultaneously. The telescopic ends of the multiple hydraulic cylinders retract, and the limit plate 302, the heating strip 304, and the pressing strip 305 are lifted. The two fixed plates 9 move away from each other, and the output end of the servo motor 10 flips, driving the double-headed threaded rod 11 to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the two moving strips 12 and the clamping plate 301 move away from each other. The operator can then remove the compressed sponge block.
[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
