The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0022] See Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a novel pressure plate mechanism for melting glue, including a disc-shaped pressure plate body 1, with a heating element 13 integrated in the inner bottom of the pressure plate body 1; preferably, the heating element 13 is a heating tube arranged in a spiral shape; the pressure plate body 1 has a mounting groove 11 with a top opening and a first glue inlet channel connected to the mounting groove 11 and located in the middle; in addition, it also includes a flow guide seat 2 and a driving device 3, the flow guide seat 2 is installed in the mounting groove 11; the flow guide seat 2 has a second glue inlet channel and a first glue outlet channel, the glue inlet end of the second glue inlet channel is connected to the glue outlet end of the first glue inlet channel; the driving device 3 includes a gear pump 31 installed on the flow guide seat 2, the bottom of the gear pump 31 has a glue inlet hole 312 and a glue outlet hole 313, the glue inlet hole 312 is connected to the glue outlet end of the second glue inlet channel, and the glue outlet hole 313 is connected to the glue inlet end of the first glue outlet channel.

[0023] When the pressure plate body 1 extends into the glue bucket and the bottom surface of the pressure plate body 1 comes into contact with the glue in the glue bucket, the heating element 13 melts the glue into glue. Then, under the action of the driving device 3, the glue flows out through the first glue inlet channel, the second glue inlet channel, the glue inlet hole 312, the glue outlet hole 313 and the first glue outlet channel in sequence.

[0024] The pressure plate mechanism of this utility model integrates the heating element 13 into the inner bottom of the pressure plate body 1, thus eliminating the need for assembly of the heating element 13, which is more convenient. In addition, since the heating element 13 is a spirally arranged heating tube, it does not occupy the space of the mounting groove 11 of the pressure plate body 1. Therefore, the flow guide seat 2 can be installed in the mounting groove 11, thereby reducing the overall height of the pressure plate mechanism, making the structure more compact and reducing costs.

[0025] Specifically, the pressure plate body 1 has a first through groove 12 arranged vertically and connected to the mounting groove 11, which forms a first glue inlet channel; the guide seat 2 has a second through groove 21 and a third through groove 22 arranged vertically, which are spaced apart; the second through groove 21 forms a second glue inlet channel, and the third through groove 22 forms a first glue outlet channel.

[0026] Furthermore, the guide seat 2 also has a fourth channel 23 that connects to the third channel 22 and is arranged horizontally, forming a second adhesive outlet channel. Specifically, it also includes two adhesive outlet connectors 4 arranged at intervals on the guide seat 2. The fourth channel 23 includes a main branch channel 231 and two branch channels 232 that connect to the main branch channel 231 and are arranged perpendicularly to and at intervals from the main branch channel 231. The main branch channel 231 is connected to the third channel 22, and the two branch channels 232 are respectively connected to the two adhesive outlet connectors 4.

[0027] Therefore, the glue flowing out from the first glue outlet channel can flow sequentially through the main branch channel 231 of the fourth channel 23 and the two branch channels 232 of the fourth channel 23, and finally be output through the two glue outlet joints 4.

[0028] See also Figure 1-2 as well as Figure 4The pressure plate mechanism also includes a return flow assembly 5, which includes a guide block 51 mounted on the guide seat 2 and a return flow valve 52 disposed on the guide block 51. The guide seat 2 has a fifth channel 24 that connects to the third channel 22 and is arranged horizontally, and a sixth channel 25 that connects to the second channel 21 and is arranged horizontally. The fifth channel 24 and the sixth channel 25 respectively form a first return flow channel and a second return flow channel. The guide block 51 has a connecting channel located between the first return flow channel and the second return flow channel and connected to both. The return flow valve 52 is used to open or close the connecting channel to control whether the first return flow channel and the second return flow channel are connected.

[0029] Therefore, by controlling the opening or closing of the return valve 52, the connection channel can be opened or closed, thereby allowing excess glue to flow back and avoiding glue waste.

[0030] In addition, it also includes an exhaust valve 6 installed on the guide block 51, which can discharge excess air in the glue bucket at the start of work, thereby facilitating the pressing of the pressure plate body 1.

[0031] See also Figure 1-2 The pressure plate mechanism also includes an exhaust regulating rod 7. The pressure plate body 1 has a vertically arranged seventh through groove 14, which forms an exhaust channel. The exhaust regulating rod 7 is inserted into the exhaust channel. Thus, after the glue is drained, the exhaust regulating rod 7 can be released to allow air to enter the glue bucket, thereby facilitating the reset of the pressure plate body 1.

[0032] Preferably, the drive device 3 further includes a drive motor 32, the power output shaft of which is connected to the gear shaft 311 of the gear pump 31, thereby driving the gear shaft 311 to rotate and thus driving the glue output.

[0033] More preferably, it also includes a sealing ring 8 fitted on the outer peripheral wall of the pressure plate body 1. When the pressure plate body 1 is inserted into the glue bucket, the sealing ring 8 can abut against the inner wall of the glue bucket to form a seal, thereby preventing the melted glue from coming into contact with air and causing failure, thus ensuring the use conditions of the glue.

[0034] In addition, the pressure plate mechanism also includes a lifting assembly, which includes two drive cylinders (not shown in the figure) respectively disposed on both sides of the pressure plate body 1, a crossbar (not shown in the figure) connected to the extension and retraction ends of the two drive cylinders, and two guide rods 10 connected at one end to the crossbar and at the other end to the pressure plate body 1 and spaced apart. Thus, when the drive cylinder drives the crossbar to move up and down, the guide rods 10 can drive the pressure plate body 1 to move up and down, thereby enabling the pressure plate body 1 to extend into or out of the glue bucket.

[0035] In addition, the pressure plate mechanism also includes a pressure plate cover 9, which covers the top of the pressure plate body 1 and shields the top of the pressure plate body 1, thereby ensuring the overall appearance of the pressure plate body 1 is simple and also serves as a dustproof function. It is understood that the pressure plate cover 9 has a clearance hole for the flow guide seat 2 to pass through.

[0036] In addition, this utility model also provides a hot melt adhesive machine, including a base plate, a glue tank disposed on the base plate, and the aforementioned pressure plate mechanism disposed on the base plate, wherein the glue tank stores adhesive. Both drive cylinders in the lifting assembly are disposed on the base plate.

[0037] In summary, the novel hot melt glue press plate mechanism and hot melt glue machine of this utility model integrate the heating element 13 into the inner bottom of the press plate body 1, thus eliminating the need for assembly of the heating element 13, which is more convenient. In addition, since the heating element 13 does not occupy the space of the mounting groove 11 of the press plate body 1, the flow guide seat 2 can be installed in the mounting groove 11, thereby reducing the overall height of the press plate mechanism, making the structure more compact and reducing costs.
