Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of equipment for carbon fiber rod processing, specifically relating to an integrated ironing machine. Background Technology
[0002] In the processing of carbon fiber rods (such as fishing rods and arrow shafts), a release agent needs to be applied to the surface of the mandrel (mold). The cut carbon fiber cloth is then laid on the mandrel according to the designed sequence and rolled up. The rolled mandrel is placed in a curing oven and heated and cured at a set temperature (usually 80-120℃) for a set time, causing the resin to cross-link and form a fishing rod blank. In existing technology, workers first place the mold on a table, with one end of the carbon fiber cloth tightly against the mold. Then, they use a heat-smoothing device to flatten the carbon fiber cloth and manually rotate the mold to roll the carbon fiber cloth onto it. This manual operation results in low production efficiency and high production costs. Using automated equipment to bond the carbon fiber cloth to the mold, followed by a specialized rolling machine to roll the carbon fiber cloth onto the mold, can reduce manpower and improve production efficiency. However, existing equipment has poor adhesion and positioning when bonding the carbon fiber cloth to the mandrel, and poor compatibility with different mandrel specifications, thus affecting the use of the equipment. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned technical defects and provide an integrated heat sealing machine with high accuracy in adhesive positioning and high compatibility with core molds.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: The heat sealing and ironing machine includes a frame and a work platform mounted on the frame. Movable core mold transfer components are located on the left and right sides of the work platform. From front to back, a core mold limiting plate and an ironing core base plate are arranged on the work platform. Above the core mold limiting plate and the ironing core base plate are respectively a fabric applicator and a fabric pressing mechanism. The fabric applicator applies the transferred carbon fiber cloth to the core mold located at the core mold limiting plate on the work platform. The fabric pressing mechanism further presses the core mold and carbon fiber cloth placed on the ironing core base plate.
[0005] The core mold limiting plate is provided with magnet mounting slots in sections, and the magnets are assembled in the magnet mounting slots.
[0006] The hot-heating core base plate is provided with a core mold positioning groove, which is V-shaped.
[0007] The applicator includes an applicator base with several suction nozzles and an applicator moving component for adjusting the position of the applicator base. The applicator moving component includes an X-axis shifting component for adjusting the left and right position of the applicator base and a Y-axis shifting component for adjusting the up and down position.
[0008] The pressing mechanism includes a connecting plate and a pressing plate. The connecting plate is connected to a lifting cylinder, and the pressing plate is located below the connecting plate. A silicone pad is provided on the lower surface of the pressing plate.
[0009] More preferably, a heating rod is provided inside the pressure plate.
[0010] The working platform includes a main worktable and a secondary worktable that are independent of each other. The secondary worktable is detachably connected to the frame. The core mold limiting plate and the hot-heating base plate set on the main worktable and the secondary worktable are separate and extend in the X direction.
[0011] The core mold transfer assembly includes two sets of parallel transfer plates. The transfer plates move back and forth under the drive of the Z-axis transfer assembly and move up and down under the drive of the Y-axis transfer assembly.
[0012] One set of the two transfer plates is fixed in the X-direction position, while the other set is adjustable in the X-direction position.

[0021] See Figure 1 and Figure 2The present invention relates to an integrated ironing and heat sealing machine, comprising a frame 1 and a work platform 2 mounted on the frame 1. A core mold transfer assembly 3 for moving core molds is mounted on the left and right sides of the work platform 2. A core mold limiting plate 23 and an ironing core base plate 25 are sequentially mounted on the work platform 2 from front to back. A fabric applicator 4 and a fabric pressing mechanism 5 are respectively mounted above the core mold limiting plate 23 and the ironing core base plate 25. The fabric applicator 4 applies the transferred carbon fiber cloth to the core mold located at the core mold limiting plate 23 on the work platform. The fabric pressing mechanism 5 further presses the core mold 100 and carbon fiber cloth 200 placed on the ironing core base plate 25, preparing for the tube rolling machine to roll the tube.
[0022] In this embodiment, the core mold limiting plate 23 is provided with magnet mounting grooves 231 in sections, and magnets 24 are assembled in the magnet mounting grooves 231. Magnets 24 can keep the core mold position fixed when the core mold placed on the working platform 2 is attached to the core mold limiting plate 23 and when the carbon cloth is attached by the cloth attaching mechanism 4.
[0023] In this embodiment, the applicator 4 includes an applicator base 42 with a plurality of suction nozzles 41 and an applicator moving assembly 43 for adjusting the position of the applicator base 42. The applicator moving assembly 43 includes an X-axis shifting assembly 431 for adjusting the left and right position of the applicator base 42 and a Y-axis shifting assembly 432 for adjusting the up and down position. The X-axis shifting assembly 431 includes an X-axis slide rail 4311 and an X-axis slider 4312 disposed on the X-axis slide rail 4311. The X-axis slider 4312 is driven by a synchronous belt to move along the X-axis slide rail 4311. The Y-axis shifting assembly 432 includes a lead screw assembly 4321. A slide block 4322 connected to the lead screw nut is connected to the applicator base 42. The lead screw is driven by a motor 4323 to rotate, thereby driving the applicator base 42 to move up and down. The lead screw assembly 4321 is connected to a lifting and fixing plate 4324, and the lifting and fixing plate 4324 is connected to the X-axis slider 4312. After the suction nozzle 41 on the fabric base 42 picks up the carbon cloth, it moves to the top of the core mold limiting plate 23 under the action of the X-axis shifting component 431, and moves downward under the action of the Y-axis shifting component 432, attaching the carbon cloth to the core mold. The core mold transfer component 3 moves the core mold backward to the hot stamping base plate 25, waiting for the fabric pressing operation.
[0024] In this embodiment, the core mold positioning groove 251 is provided on the hot stamping core base plate 25. The core mold positioning groove 251 is V-shaped, which can accommodate core molds of different thicknesses. The pressing mechanism 5 includes a connecting plate 52 and a pressing plate 53. The connecting plate 52 is connected to the lifting cylinder 51, and the pressing plate 53 is located below the connecting plate 52. A silicone pad 54 is provided on the lower surface of the pressing plate 53. A heating rod 55 is provided inside the pressing plate 53. Driven by the lifting cylinder 51, the pressing plate 53 moves downward, and the silicone pad 54 directly contacts the core mold in the core mold positioning groove 251, pressing the carbon cloth and the core mold tightly. The bonding force between the carbon cloth and the backing paper is relatively weak, and the backing paper separates from the carbon cloth at the joint between the carbon cloth and the adhesive core mold.
[0025] To improve the compatibility of the heat sealing machine with mandrels of different lengths, the working platform 2 includes a main worktable 21 and a secondary worktable 22, which are independent of each other. The secondary worktable 22 is detachably connected to the frame 1. The mandrel limiting plate 23 and the heat sealing base plate 25, which are set on the main worktable 21 and the secondary worktable 22, are separated and extend in the X-direction. The mandrel limiting plate 23 and the heat sealing base plate 25 on the secondary worktable 22 are removed together with the secondary worktable 22 to avoid affecting the mandrel transfer assembly 3's transfer of mandrels. Disassembling the secondary worktable 22 can accommodate the process of pressing short carbon fiber cloth onto the mandrel, while adding the secondary worktable 22 can meet the process of pressing long carbon fiber cloth onto long mandrels. It can be flexibly assembled as needed.
[0026] In this embodiment, the core mold transfer assembly 3 includes two sets of parallel transfer plates 31. The transfer plates 31 move back and forth under the drive of the Z-axis shifting assembly 33 and move up and down under the drive of the Y-axis transfer assembly 32. The Z-axis shifting assembly 33 can be implemented using a lead screw module, and the Y-axis transfer assembly 32 can be implemented using a cylinder. One set of the two sets of transfer plates 31 is fixed in the X-axis position, and the other set is adjustable in the X-axis position. The Z-axis shifting assembly 33 on the adjustment side is set on the adjusting slider 34. The adjusting slider 34 moves along the adjusting slide rail 35. The position of the adjusting slider 34 on the adjusting slide rail 35 is adjusted according to the length of the core mold to make the distance between the transfer plates 31 appropriate and able to support both ends of the core mold 100.
[0027] The front side of the working platform 2 is provided with a receiving assembly 8 for receiving the core molds supplied by the core mold feeding device; the receiving assembly 8 includes at least two sets of receiving blocks 81, and the receiving blocks 81 are driven to move up and down by receiving cylinders 82. A limit baffle 6 is provided on the outside of the fixed side transfer plate 31, and an alignment mechanism 7 is provided on the outside of the moving side transfer plate 31. The alignment mechanism 7 includes an alignment push plate 71 and an alignment cylinder 72. The alignment cylinder 72 drives the alignment push plate 71 to move, moving the core mold on the receiving block 81 toward the limit baffle 6 for alignment.
[0028] A core mold transfer mechanism 9 is provided on the rear side of the work platform 2. The core mold transfer mechanism 9 transfers the core mold pressed with carbon cloth to the tube winding device. The core mold transfer mechanism 9 includes two parallel gripper cylinders 91. The gripper cylinders 91 are connected to the gripper lifting cylinders 93. The gripper lifting cylinders 93 drive the gripper cylinders 91 to move up and down. The gripper lifting cylinders 93 are connected to the Z-axis linear module 92. The Z-axis linear module 92 drives the gripper lifting cylinders 93 to move back and forth.
[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
