Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sponge processing technology, specifically to a sponge bonding and conveying device and a sponge composite equipment. Background Technology
[0002] The main component of most sponges is polyurethane, and different manufacturing processes result in different products. Sponges can be laminated for packaging, heat-processed, and burst-opened according to customer requirements. Polyurethane sponges themselves have many air bubbles, but their air permeability is not very high. It is necessary to evenly coat sponge blocks of different types and densities with glue and then laminate them together.
[0003] In the current sponge bonding process, adhesive is usually applied to the top of the lower sponge, and then the upper sponge is manually moved to the top of the lower sponge before being pressed together. Since it is laborious to move the upper sponge manually, and sometimes the adhesive on the lower sponge is easily scratched during the process, it affects the stable bonding of the sponge after pressing.

When the upper layer conveying component is in the discharge position, the conveying direction of the upper layer conveying component gradually tilts downwards along the conveying direction of the lower layer conveying component.
[0008] When the swing drive assembly is in the first position and the upper conveying assembly is in the translational conveying position, the upper conveying assembly can move under the drive of the upper translational drive assembly so that the conveying start end of the upper conveying assembly is connected to the conveying end end of the swing conveying assembly.

The upper layer conveying assembly is rotatably disposed on the upper layer translation bracket, and the tilt drive assembly is assembled with the upper layer translation bracket.
[0011] In some optional embodiments, the upper and lower layer conveying mechanism includes two upper layer translation brackets, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the upper layer conveying assembly, and the two sides of the upper layer conveying assembly are rotatably engaged with the two upper layer translation brackets.
[0012] In some alternative implementations, the upper translation drive assembly is driven to connect with two upper translation supports, and the two upper translation supports move synchronously under the drive of the upper translation drive assembly.

[0016] In some optional embodiments, the layered conveying support is provided with a plurality of buffer pads, and when the swing conveying assembly swings downward to the second position under the drive of the swing driving assembly, the swing conveying assembly abuts against the buffer pads.
[0017] Another embodiment of this utility model provides a sponge composite device, including: a sponge bonding and conveying device as described above.
[0018] Compared with existing technologies, the sponge bonding and conveying device of this utility model can first transport the lower sponge to a suitable position, and then transport the upper sponge above the lower sponge, and gradually guide the lower sponge to the top of the upper sponge. Then the upper and lower sponges can be pressed together, which improves processing efficiency and saves manpower and material resources.

[0030] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 One embodiment of this utility model provides a sponge bonding and conveying device, including: a layered conveying mechanism 10 and an upper and lower layer conveying mechanism 20.
[0031] The layered conveying mechanism 10 includes a swing conveying assembly 11, a layered conveying support 12, and a swing drive assembly 13. The swing conveying assembly 11 is rotatably mounted on the layered conveying support 12. Under the drive of the swing drive assembly 13, the swing conveying assembly 11 swings upward to a first position and downward to a second position.
[0032] The upper and lower layer conveying mechanism 20 includes a lower layer conveying component 21, an upper layer conveying component 22, an upper layer translation drive component 23, and a tilting drive component 24. The upper layer conveying component 22 is disposed above the lower layer conveying component 21, and the upper layer translation drive component 23 is driven to drive the upper layer conveying component 22. The upper layer conveying component 22 moves back and forth along the conveying direction of the lower layer conveying component 21 under the drive of the upper layer translation drive component 23. The tilting drive component 24 is driven to drive the upper layer conveying component 22, and the upper layer conveying component 22 rotates to the translation conveying position and the material discharge position under the drive of the tilting drive component 24. When the upper conveying component 22 is in the feeding position, the conveying direction of the upper conveying component 22 gradually tilts downward along the conveying direction of the lower conveying component 21; when the swing drive component 13 is in the first position and the upper conveying component 22 is in the translational conveying position, the upper conveying component 22 can move under the drive of the upper translational drive component 23 so that the conveying start end of the upper conveying component 22 is connected to the conveying end end of the swing conveying component 11; when the swing drive component 13 is in the second position, the conveying start end of the lower conveying component 21 is connected to the conveying end end of the swing conveying component 11.
[0033] The working principle of the sponge bonding and conveying device in one embodiment of this utility model is explained below:
[0034] Please see Figures 1 to 3 After the lower sponge 40 is coated with adhesive, it is transferred to the oscillating conveyor assembly 11. The oscillating drive assembly 13 drives the oscillating conveyor assembly 11 to rotate to the second position. The oscillating conveyor assembly 11 conveys the lower sponge 40 to the lower conveyor assembly 21. The lower conveyor assembly 21 conveys the lower sponge 40 to the designated position. The oscillating conveyor assembly 11 is located at the end of the lower conveyor assembly 21 that is away from the designated position.
[0035] Next, the upper sponge 30 is transferred to the oscillating conveyor assembly 11. The oscillating drive assembly 13 drives the oscillating conveyor assembly 11 to rotate to the first position. The tilting drive assembly 24 drives the upper conveyor assembly 22 to rotate to the translational conveying position. The upper translational drive assembly 23 moves the upper conveyor assembly 22 toward the oscillating drive assembly 13, so that the conveying start end of the upper conveyor assembly 22 is connected to the conveying end end of the oscillating conveyor assembly 11. Subsequently, the oscillating conveyor assembly 11 conveys the upper sponge 30 to the upper conveyor assembly 22, and the upper translational drive assembly 23 moves the upper sponge 30 conveyor assembly. Above the designated position, the tilting drive assembly 24 drives the upper conveying assembly 22 to rotate to the unloading position. The upper conveying assembly 22 then conveys the upper sponge 30 towards the lower sponge 40 located at the designated position. Because the upper conveying assembly 22 is tilted, the foremost part of the upper sponge 30 will contact the lower sponge 40 first. After the upper sponge 30 contacts the lower sponge 40, the upper translation drive assembly can gradually move towards the swing drive assembly 13, so that the upper sponge 30 is gradually conveyed onto the lower sponge 40, achieving a stable and accurate placement of the upper sponge 30 on the lower sponge 40. If the upper sponge 30 cannot be accurately aligned with the lower sponge 40, it can be guided manually or by other mechanical equipment before it just contacts the lower sponge 40, ensuring accurate alignment.
[0036] In some optional embodiments, the upper and lower layer conveying mechanism 20 includes an upper layer translation bracket 25, which is movably disposed on the side of the upper layer conveying component 22. The upper layer translation drive component 23 is drivenly connected to the upper layer translation bracket 25 to realize the drive connection between the upper layer translation drive component 23 and the upper layer conveying component 22. The upper layer conveying component 22 is rotatably disposed on the upper layer translation bracket 25. The tilt drive component 24 is assembled with the upper layer translation bracket 25. The upper layer translation drive component 23 drives the upper layer translation bracket 25 to translate, thereby indirectly driving the upper layer conveying component 22 to move. The tilt drive component 24 is directly drivenly connected to the upper layer conveying component 22.
[0037] In some optional embodiments, the upper and lower conveying mechanism 20 includes two upper-level translational supports 25, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the upper-level conveying component 22. The two sides of the upper-level conveying component 22 are rotatably engaged with the two upper-level translational supports 25, thereby improving the support stability of the upper-level conveying component 22 and preventing the upper-level conveying component 22 from being too wide and causing unstable tipping.
[0038] In some alternative implementations, the upper translation drive assembly 23 is driven to connect with two upper translation supports 25, and the two upper translation supports 25 move synchronously under the drive of the upper translation drive assembly 23.
[0039] The specific structure of the upper translation drive assembly 23 can be selected according to actual needs. The upper translation drive assembly 23 can be a lead screw drive assembly, a rotary motor translation drive assembly, a belt translation drive assembly, a cylinder translation drive assembly, or a linear motor translation drive assembly, etc., and is not limited to this example. In this embodiment, the upper translation drive assembly 23 includes an intermediate shaft 231, two synchronous belt modules 232, and an upper translation drive motor 233. The upper translation drive motor 233 is driven to drive the intermediate shaft 231. The two ends of the intermediate shaft 231 are driven to drive the two synchronous belt modules 232 respectively. The synchronous belt modules 232 are driven to drive the upper translation bracket 25. The upper translation drive motor 233 drives the intermediate shaft 231 to rotate, and the intermediate shaft 231 drives the upper translation bracket 25 to move through the synchronous belt modules 232.
[0040] In some alternative embodiments, a bearing 251 is provided on the upper translation support 25, and the upper translation support 25 is rotatably engaged with the upper and lower conveying mechanisms 20.
[0041] The specific structures of the swing drive assembly 13 and the tilt drive assembly 24 can be selected according to actual needs. For example, in some optional embodiments, the swing drive assembly 13 and / or the tilt drive assembly 24 are cylinders, electric cylinders, or hydraulic cylinders, and are not limited to this example. In this embodiment, the swing drive assembly 13 has two cylinders, and the tilt drive assembly 24 has two cylinders. The two cylinders of the swing drive assembly 13 are respectively arranged on both sides of the layered conveying bracket 12, and the output shaft of the cylinder of the swing drive assembly 13 is connected to the swing conveying assembly 11. The two cylinders of the tilt drive assembly 24 are respectively arranged on two upper translation brackets 25, and the output shaft of the cylinder of the tilt drive assembly 24 is connected to the upper conveying assembly 22.
[0042] In some optional embodiments, the side of the lower translation drive assembly is provided with an upper translation guide rail 211 extending along the conveying direction of the lower conveying assembly 21, and the upper translation bracket 25 slides with the upper translation guide rail 211, thereby improving the movement stability of the upper translation bracket 25. In this embodiment, the upper translation guide rail 211 is provided on both sides of the lower translation drive assembly.
[0043] The specific structures of the upper conveyor assembly 22, the oscillating conveyor assembly 11, and the lower conveyor assembly 21 can be selected according to actual needs, such as mesh belt conveyor assembly, roller conveyor assembly, chain conveyor assembly, and belt conveyor assembly. In this embodiment, the upper conveyor assembly 22, the oscillating conveyor assembly 11, and the lower conveyor assembly 21 all adopt belt conveyor assemblies.
[0044] It should be noted that the conveying start of the upper conveying component 22 refers to the position where the sponge enters the upper conveying component 22, and the conveying end of the upper conveying component 22 refers to the position where the sponge leaves the upper conveying component 22; the conveying start of the lower conveying component 21 refers to the position where the sponge enters the lower conveying component 21, and the conveying end of the lower conveying component 21 refers to the position where the sponge leaves the lower conveying component 21; the conveying start of the oscillating conveying component 11 refers to the position where the sponge enters the oscillating conveying component 11, and the conveying end of the oscillating conveying component 11 refers to the position where the sponge leaves the oscillating conveying component 11.
[0045] It should be noted that the connection between the conveying end of the conveying component and the conveying beginning of other conveying components means that the sponge can be conveyed from the conveying end of the conveying component to the conveying beginning of other conveying components, and does not mean that there must be a direct connection between the conveying end of the conveying component and the conveying beginning of other conveying components. For example, when the conveying end of the swing conveying component 11 is connected to the conveying beginning of the upper conveying component 22, the height position of the conveying end of the swing conveying component 11 can be roughly aligned with the height position of the conveying beginning of the upper conveying component 22, and the distance between the conveying end of the swing conveying component 11 and the conveying beginning of the upper conveying component 22 can be small enough so that the sponge can be conveyed from the swing conveying component 11 to the upper conveying component 22.
[0046] Please see Figure 4 In some optional embodiments, the layered conveying support 12 is provided with a plurality of buffer pads 14. When the swing conveying assembly 11 swings downward to the second position under the drive of the swing drive assembly 13, the swing conveying assembly 11 abuts against the buffer pads 14. The buffer pads 14 can provide a buffering function for the swing conveying assembly 11 to avoid damage to the swing conveying assembly 11 due to long-term collision.
[0047] The aforementioned sponge bonding and conveying device can be applied to sponge composite equipment, which includes: the aforementioned sponge bonding and conveying device.
[0048] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
