Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sock shaping technology, and in particular to a shaping device for sock production. Background Technology

[0002] A sock shaping device is a specialized piece of equipment designed for textiles such as socks. It aims to shape, dry, and finish socks, ensuring good dimensional stability, a smooth appearance, and comfortable wear. In use, the socks are placed on a sock mold and then on a conveyor belt. The conveyor belt drive is activated, transporting the socks into the shaping chamber. The chamber is then closed, and the heating and / or humidifying devices are activated to process the socks. The appropriate shaping time and temperature are set according to the sock's material and shaping requirements. After shaping, the chamber is opened, and the socks are removed.

[0003] Currently, in practical applications, the shaping equipment used in sock production typically employs a method where a heating element is installed within a separate sock board, and the shaping operation is achieved through the extrusion of shaping rollers.

[0004] This design requires multiple shaping rollers to complete the shaping process, and each roller occupies a certain amount of space, which lengthens the entire production line. This not only increases the floor space required for the production equipment but may also reduce production efficiency because the time spent moving and handling socks on the production line increases accordingly.

[0005] Because multiple shaping rollers and heating components need to operate simultaneously, energy consumption is relatively high. This not only increases production costs but may also have a certain impact on the environment. The use of multiple shaping rollers and heating components also increases equipment maintenance costs, requiring regular inspection and maintenance of the working condition of each component to ensure its normal operation. This undoubtedly increases the complexity and workload of equipment maintenance. Utility Model Content

[0006] The main objective of this invention is to provide a shaping device for sock production, which can effectively solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0008] A shaping device for sock production includes a transmission support, a transmission component, a drive component, a first moving platform, and a second moving platform. The transmission component is mounted on the transmission support, the drive component is mounted on the transmission support and drives the transmission component to move, and the first and second moving platforms are mounted on the transmission component to realize the movement of the moving platforms.

[0009] The upper ends of the first mobile station and the second mobile station are equipped with mounting seats, and a heating sock board is connected through the mounting seats. A sock to be shaped is sleeved on the heating sock board;

[0010] On both sides of the upper end of the transmission support, there are support frames installed. On the side wall of the support frame, there are two limiting sliding frames. Each limiting sliding frame end face is provided with a limiting groove. A limiting sliding seat is installed in the groove of the limiting groove. An electric push rod is installed at the outer end of the limiting sliding frame. The electric push rod is inserted into the limiting groove and connected to the limiting sliding seat. An extrusion roller is installed between the two limiting sliding seats. The electric push rod drives the extrusion roller to move towards the heating sock board to achieve extrusion shaping.

[0011] As an optional solution of this application, the cross-section of the mounting seat is designed in a "U" shape. Multiple mounting hole positions are opened on the end face of the mounting seat. A round hole is opened at the lower end of the heating sock board. Bolts are inserted into the mounting hole positions and the round hole to fix the heating sock board and the mounting seat. An anti-slip rubber sheet is provided at the connection between the mounting seat and the heating sock board. A protective shell is installed on the transmission support to cover the connection between the driving component and the conveying component;

[0012] As an optional solution of this application, the support frame is composed of two L-shaped brackets. The two L-shaped brackets are arranged oppositely, making the middle in a "square" shape design. A recessed wire routing groove is opened on the side wall of the support frame. The wire of the electric push rod is routed along the recessed wire routing groove;

[0013] As an optional solution of this application, one of the electric push rods extends into the recessed wire routing groove of the support frame. The electric push rod is fixed on the support frame by bolts. The limiting sliding frame is fixed on the support frame by bolts;

[0014] As an optional solution of this application, the limiting sliding seat and the limiting groove are limitedly connected through a T-shaped strip and a T-shaped groove. The connection between the limiting sliding seat and the limiting sliding frame is designed smoothly. The limiting sliding seat includes a bearing seat and a bearing. The bearing is installed on the bearing seat. The bearing seat and the electric push rod are limitedly connected through a T-shaped key and a T-shaped hole;

[0015] As an optional solution of this application, a heating component is provided inside the extrusion roller. The wire of the heating component opens a hole at the end face of the extrusion roller and passes through the bearing and extends into the recessed wire routing groove of the support frame. A round hole is opened on the support frame, and the wire is fixed on the support frame by a tie strap.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] Heated sock plates provide even heating to socks, ensuring they achieve the desired shape and size during the shaping process. Through a stable connection with the mounting base, the heated sock plate not only guarantees heating efficiency but also effectively prevents the socks from slipping during shaping with anti-slip rubber pads, improving the accuracy and stability of the shaping process.

[0018] The compression roller adjustment mechanism, driven by an electric push rod, can precisely control the compression force and direction of the compression rollers on the socks. This flexible adjustment capability ensures that the socks receive uniform and moderate compression during the shaping process, further enhancing the accuracy and effect of the shaping. Simultaneously, the heating element inside the compression rollers can provide secondary heating to the socks, consolidating the shaping effect.

[0019] The support mechanism provides stable support for the entire shaping device. The cooperation of the support frame, limiting slide, and limiting slide seat ensures the stability and smoothness of the extrusion rollers during adjustment. Furthermore, the recessed wiring groove design on the support frame not only facilitates the arrangement and fixing of the wires but also improves the overall structural compactness and aesthetics of the device.

The heating component's wires pass through an opening on the end face of the extrusion roller 14 and extend into the recessed wiring groove of the support frame 9 via a bearing. To secure the wires, the support frame 9 has round holes, and the wires are fixed to the support frame 9 with cable ties, thereby ensuring a stable power supply to the heating component. The transmission bracket 1 has multiple connection holes, which are equidistantly distributed. The support frame 9 is installed at the connection holes of the transmission bracket 1 using fasteners. The position and number of support frames 9 on the transmission bracket 1 can be adjusted according to actual conditions.

[0034] Secure the transmission bracket 1 in the appropriate position. Install the transmission assembly 2 onto the transmission bracket 1.
