Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of electronic cigarette production and assembly, and specifically relates to an atomizing core clamping and rotating mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] The atomizer coil is the core component of an electronic cigarette atomizer, typically consisting of a wick, heating mesh, inner support, outer cotton wrapping, and outer steel sleeve. During production and assembly, the wick and heating mesh are first inserted into the inner support to form the coil. Then, outer cotton wrapping is wrapped around the coil, and finally, the outer steel sleeve is fitted onto the cotton-wrapped coil, pressing the outer cotton wrapping and coil together securely. When the electronic cigarette is working, the heating mesh of the atomizer coil atomizes the e-liquid absorbed by the wick, which then passes through the inner support, outer cotton wrapping, and outer steel sleeve for the user to vape. However, due to the small size of the atomizer coil, the process of wrapping it with the steel sleeve is usually done manually, resulting in low assembly efficiency and high labor costs. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an atomizing core clamping and rotating mechanism that can automatically attach a steel sleeve to the atomizing core, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the atomizing core and saving labor costs.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0005] This utility model provides an atomizing core clamping and rotating mechanism, including: a rotary motor, a clamping cylinder, a first clamping jaw, and a second clamping jaw. The clamping cylinder is connected to the output end of the rotary motor. The first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw are both installed on the output end of the clamping cylinder and are arranged opposite to each other. A first cotton swab clamping member is movably installed on the first clamping jaw, and a second cotton swab clamping member is movably installed on the second clamping jaw. The first cotton swab clamping member and the second cotton swab clamping member are arranged opposite to each other, and a clamping groove for clamping cotton swabs is formed between them.
[0006] Furthermore, the first gripper is provided with a first movable groove, and a first limiting plate is provided above the first gripper. The first tampon holder is movably disposed in the first movable groove, and a first compression spring is provided between the first tampon holder and the first limiting plate. One end of the first compression spring abuts against or is connected to the first limiting plate, and the other end abuts against or is connected to the first tampon holder. The second gripper is provided with a second movable groove, and a second limiting plate is provided below the second gripper. The second tampon holder is movably disposed in the second movable groove, and a second compression spring is provided between the second tampon holder and the second limiting plate. One end of the second compression spring abuts against or is connected to the second limiting plate, and the other end abuts against or is connected to the second tampon holder.
[0007] Furthermore, the lower end of the first tampon holder is provided with a first tampon holding groove, and the upper end of the second tampon holder is provided with a second tampon holding groove. The first tampon holding groove and the second tampon holding groove are arranged opposite to each other and are combined to form the clamping groove.
[0008] Furthermore, both the first and second swab clamping grooves are semi-circular openings that can be combined to form a complete circular groove. Since the outer wall of the core is circular, the circular groove formed by the combination of the two can adapt to the circular wrapped cotton around the core, thereby improving the clamping effect of the swab.
[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Compared with the prior art, when assembling the steel sleeve, the first and second grippers can clamp and fix the steel sleeve, and the first and second cotton swab holders can clamp and fix the cotton swabs wrapped on the core by cooperation. The first and second grippers are driven forward by the rotary motor to rotate the steel sleeve onto the core with the cotton swabs, thereby realizing the automatic assembly of the steel sleeve of the atomizing core.

[0014] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0015] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0016] See Figure 1-2 As shown, this embodiment provides an atomizing core clamping and rotating mechanism, including:
[0017] Rotary motor 0;
[0018] Gripper cylinder 1;
[0019] First gripper 2;
[0020] Second gripper 3;
[0021] The gripper cylinder 1 is installed at the output end of the rotary motor 0. The first gripper 2 and the second gripper 3 are both installed at the output end of the gripper cylinder 1 and are arranged opposite to each other. A first cotton swab clamping member 4 is movably installed on the first gripper 2 and a second cotton swab clamping member 5 is movably installed on the second gripper 3. The first cotton swab clamping member 4 and the second cotton swab clamping member 5 are arranged opposite to each other and a clamping groove 12 for clamping cotton swabs is formed between them.
[0022] In this application, during the assembly of the steel sleeve, the first and second grippers can clamp and fix the steel sleeve, and the first and second cotton swab holders can clamp and fix the cotton swabs wrapped on the core by cooperating. By rotating the motor, the first and second grippers move forward, rotating the steel sleeve onto the core with the cotton swabs wrapped on it, thereby realizing the automatic assembly of the steel sleeve of the atomizing core.
[0023] Furthermore, the first gripper 2 is provided with a first movable groove 6, and a first limiting plate 7 is provided above the first gripper 2. The first cotton swab holder 4 is movably disposed in the first movable groove 6, and a first compression spring 8 is provided between the first cotton swab holder 4 and the first limiting plate 7. One end of the first compression spring 8 abuts or connects with the first limiting plate 7, and the other end abuts or connects with the first cotton swab holder 4. The second gripper 3 is provided with a second movable groove 9, and a second limiting plate 10 is provided below the second gripper 3. The second cotton swab holder 5 is movably disposed in the second movable groove 9, and a second compression spring 11 is provided between the second cotton swab holder 5 and the second limiting plate 10. One end of the second compression spring 11 abuts or connects with the second limiting plate 10, and the other end abuts or connects with the second cotton swab holder 5.
[0024] In this application, during the assembly of the steel sleeve, the gripper cylinder 1 actuates, causing the first gripper 2 and the second gripper 3 to open and close, clamping the steel sleeve. Then, driven by a linear motor, it moves forward, allowing the front end of the steel sleeve to be fitted onto the core. At this time, the first cotton swab clamping member 4 and the second cotton swab clamping member 5 clamp the front end of the cotton swab. During the forward movement, the rotary motor 0 actuates, causing the first gripper 2 and the second gripper 3 to rotate, rotating the steel sleeve onto the cotton-filled core. During the process of the steel sleeve rotating onto the core, the first cotton swab clamping member 4 and the second cotton swab clamping member 5 can both clamp and fix the cotton swab, preventing wrinkles from forming during the process; and utilize the elasticity of the spring to achieve a soft clamping of the cotton swab, preventing the cotton swab from being clamped too tightly and affecting the assembly of the steel sleeve. At the same time, during the process of the steel sleeve rotating onto the cotton swab, the first cotton swab clamping member 4 and the second cotton swab clamping member 5 gradually advance, thereby ensuring that the cotton swab is always in a stable clamping state, preventing wrinkles from forming during the process.
[0025] Furthermore, the lower end of the first tampon clamping member 4 is provided with a first tampon clamping groove 13, and the upper end of the second tampon clamping member 5 is provided with a second tampon clamping groove 14. The first tampon clamping groove 13 and the second tampon clamping groove 14 are arranged opposite to each other and are combined to form the clamping groove 12.
[0026] Furthermore, both the first cotton sliver clamping groove 13 and the second cotton sliver clamping groove 14 are semi-circular opening grooves that can be combined to form a complete circular groove. Since the outer wall of the core is circular, the circular groove formed by the combination of the two can be adapted to the circular wrapped cotton wrapped around the core, thereby improving the clamping effect of the cotton sliver.
[0027] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
