Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sheet metal processing equipment technology, specifically to a self-cleaning sheet metal edge banding machine. Background Technology

[0002] An edge banding machine is a commonly used woodworking machine suitable for edge banding of medium-density fiberboard, plywood, solid wood boards, particleboard, polymer door panels, plywood, etc. First, the molten adhesive is heated and melted, then applied to the edge of the board, and finally the edge banding strip is fixed to the edge of the board.

[0003] During the edge banding process of existing edge banding machines, some of the excess wood chips, solidified glue, and other waste generated remain on the surface of the boards. This residue makes the boards unclean, especially since multiple cuts are involved in the edge banding process. Excess edge banding strips and solidified glue residue from previous cuts may interfere with subsequent edge banding cuts, causing them to skip and resulting in uneven edge banding, thus affecting the quality of the edge banding. Furthermore, during the edge banding conveying process, the boards are typically clamped and transported by a conveying mechanism and a clamping device. The wood chips and other waste remaining on the board surface can easily damage the surface under the pressure of the clamping device.

[0004] Furthermore, during the subsequent transportation process after edge banding, when a large number of boards are piled together, the significant weight of the boards themselves can cause damage to the surface from sawdust and other debris. During handling, friction and other factors can also cause further damage to the board surface.

[0005] This shows that existing technologies still have certain shortcomings. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a self-cleaning edge banding machine for boards, in order to solve at least one of the above-mentioned problems.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a self-cleaning edge banding machine for boards, including an edge banding table. The edge banding table is provided with a conveying mechanism for conveying boards. A pressure roller assembly is also provided above the conveying mechanism. There is a gap between the pressure roller assembly and the conveying mechanism for the boards to pass through. The machine also includes an edge trimming knife and a cleaning component. The cleaning component includes a cleaning element corresponding to the edge trimming knife. The cleaning element is located in front of the edge trimming knife along the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism.

[0008] In the above solution, by setting a cleaning component in front of the trimming knife, it can be ensured that the surface of the board in front of each trimming knife is clean and free of residual debris, thereby avoiding knife skipping during the trimming process, ensuring the accuracy and quality of trimming, and thus ensuring the quality of edge banding.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the cleaning component includes a connecting rod connected to the edge banding platform and a cleaning brush disposed at the end of the connecting rod. The cleaning brush has bristles on the side away from the connecting rod, and the bristles are arranged in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the conveying mechanism.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the edge sealing table.

[0014] In the above solution, the method of using a connecting rod to rotate and connect to the edge banding table makes it easy to install cleaning brushes with different bristle densities at both ends of the connecting rod. This allows the selection of a cleaning brush with a bristle density that is appropriate for the size of the particles remaining on the board surface, in conjunction with the rotation of the connecting rod, thus ensuring cleaning effect and efficiency.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the cleaning component further includes a rotating connecting part disposed in the middle of the connecting rod, the rotating connecting part being movably connected to the edge sealing table, the connecting rod being rotatably connected to the rotating connecting part, and the cleaning brushes being respectively disposed at both ends of the connecting rod.

[0016] In the above solution, the connecting rod is connected to the edge sealing table through a rotating connecting part. The connection structure is simple and can ensure that the connecting rod can flexibly rise, fall and rotate relative to the edge sealing table.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the cleaning assembly further includes a collection device, which includes a collection hopper connected to the side of the edge banding table and a negative pressure generating device connected to the collection hopper. The collection hopper is disposed below the trimming knife and / or the cleaning component.

[0018] In the above solution, the collection device can collect the waste pushed down by the cleaning components, preventing the waste from falling onto other structures of the edge banding table after it detaches from the board surface.

The cleaning component includes a cleaning element corresponding to the edge trimming knife 12, and the cleaning element is disposed in front of the edge trimming knife 12 along the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 2.

[0038] In the above solution, by installing a cleaning component in front of the trimming blade 12, it is ensured that the surface of the board in front of each trimming blade 12 is clean and free of residual debris, thereby avoiding blade skipping during the trimming process, ensuring the accuracy and quality of the trimming, and thus ensuring the quality of the edge banding. At the same time, cleaning the board surface through the cleaning component can prevent edge banding strip residue, solidified adhesive residue, etc. generated during the trimming process from entering the pressure roller assembly 3 and the board, causing damage to the board surface during the conveying process.

[0039] In one example, refer to Figure 1As shown, the cleaning component includes a connecting rod connected to the edge banding table 1 and a cleaning brush 42 disposed at the end of the connecting rod. The cleaning brush 42 has bristles on the side away from the connecting rod, arranged perpendicular to the conveying mechanism 2. In the vertical direction, the height of the free end of the bristles is lower than the height of the upper surface of the board. This lower height ensures close contact between the bristles and the board surface, preventing edge banding residue, sawdust, and solidified adhesive residue from leaking through the gap between the bristles and the board surface, thus ensuring cleaning effectiveness and efficiency.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the connecting rod is movably connected to the edge banding table 1, and the connecting rod can move up and down relative to the edge banding table 1 in the vertical direction. The up and down movement of the connecting rod relative to the edge banding table 1 can flexibly adjust the height of the free end of the brush bristles according to the thickness of the board, thereby adapting to the surface cleaning needs during edge banding and trimming of boards of different thicknesses, greatly enhancing the versatility of the equipment in this application. Preferably, the connecting rod in this application is also rotatably connected to the edge banding table 1. In a specific example, referring to... Figure 1 As shown, the cleaning component also includes a rotating connecting part 411 located in the middle of the connecting rod. The rotating connecting part 411 is movably connected to the edge banding table 1. The connecting rod is rotatably connected to the rotating connecting part 411, and cleaning brushes 42 are respectively provided at both ends of the connecting rod. This rotatable connection of the connecting rod to the edge banding table 1 allows for the installation of cleaning brushes 42 with different bristle densities at both ends of the connecting rod. This enables the selection of cleaning brushes 42 with appropriate bristle densities based on the size of the particles remaining on the board surface and the rotation of the connecting rod, ensuring both cleaning effectiveness and efficiency. Furthermore, the connection between the connecting rod and the edge banding table 1 via the rotating connecting part 411 is simple and allows for flexible lifting and rotation of the connecting rod relative to the edge banding table 1.
