Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of ceramic rolling equipment, specifically to an automatic cutting and feeding device for ceramic rolling forming. Background Technology

[0002] Ceramic roll forming is one of the most important processes in the production of ceramic bowl blanks. It rolls irregular clay blanks into various shapes to meet the functional requirements of porcelain and the needs of users. After the roll-formed blanks are placed in plaster molds and sent to the drying process, the shape of the porcelain blank is basically fixed. This type of roll forming device is mostly used for forming plates, dishes, and bowls.

[0003] Currently, in the production of daily-use ceramics using rolling mills, the clay material exiting the clay refining machine is generally cut manually, and then manually placed into the plaster mold of the ceramic rolling mill. Manual cutting makes it difficult to control the volume of the clay; each cut produces clay of varying sizes, resulting in inconsistent placement in the plaster mold. This can lead to either too much clay being cut and requiring the removal of excess, or too little clay being placed in the mold, resulting in a low yield, significant clay waste, high labor intensity for workers, and low production efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, it is particularly important to design an automatic cutting and feeding device for ceramic roll forming to overcome the above-mentioned technical defects and improve the overall practicality. Utility Model Content

However, the utility model can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the disclosure of the utility model more thorough and complete.

[0025] For examples, please refer to Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0026] An automatic cutting and feeding device for ceramic roll forming includes a belt conveyor 1. A blank feeding cylinder 2 is provided above the right frame of the belt conveyor 1 and near the front. A blank cutting frame plate 201 is provided at the bottom of the blank feeding cylinder 2 and along its edge. A fixed bracket 3 is installed on the outside of the left frame of the belt conveyor 1 and at the position corresponding to the blank feeding cylinder 2. A telescopic cylinder 301 is installed on the outside of the fixed bracket 3. The drive end of the telescopic cylinder 301 passes through the interior of the fixed bracket 3 and is connected to a cutting blade 302 that works with the blank cutting frame plate 201. An electric push rod 4 is installed at the top and rear of the right frame of the belt conveyor 1.

[0027] The bottom of the blank cutting frame plate 201 is fixed to the top of the right frame of the belt conveyor 1 by bolts. The inner wall of the blank cutting frame plate 201 is designed with an arc structure. The cutting blade 302 is positioned corresponding to the blank cutting frame plate 201, and the curvature of the cutting edge of the cutting blade 302 is adapted to the curvature of the inner wall of the blank cutting frame plate 201. This allows for precise control of the cutting blade to cut the mud column into uniform sizes and then convey it.

[0028] In this embodiment, a fixed crossbar 401 is installed at the drive end of the electric push rod 4. A forward and reverse motor 402 is installed at the rear end of the fixed crossbar 401. The output end of the forward and reverse motor 402 passes through the interior of the fixed crossbar 401 and is connected to a rotating screw 403. A screw sleeve 404 is threaded onto the outer side of the rotating screw 403. A fixed plate 405 is provided on the left side of the screw sleeve 404. A drive motor 406 is installed on the right side of the fixed plate 405. The output end of the drive motor 406 passes through the fixed plate 405 and is connected to a drive gear 407. A driven gear 408 that meshes with the drive gear 407 is rotatably connected to the left side of the fixed plate 405. Both the drive gear 407 and the driven gear 408 are fixedly connected to a preform gripper 410 through a connecting rod bracket 409. An infrared position sensor 411 is installed at the bottom of the preform gripper 410.

[0029] The belt conveyor 1 is equipped with a controller on its casing. The controller is connected to the telescopic cylinder 301, the electric push rod 4, the forward and reverse motor 402, the drive motor 406, and the infrared position sensor 411 via wires, and the connection is electrical.

[0030] The rear end of the fixed crossbar 401 extends longitudinally to the rear side of the belt conveyor 1, and the control body gripper grabs the cut mud material and transports it into the plaster mold.

[0031] Both ends of the rotating screw 403 are rotatably connected to the inside of the fixed crossbar 401 through bearing seats, and the drive motor 406 is fixedly connected to the extended end of the screw sleeve 404.

[0032] The working process of this utility model is as follows: When the automatic cutting and feeding device for ceramic roll forming designed in this scheme is in operation, the cylindrical clay blank is placed inside the blank feeding cylinder 2. Under the action of gravity, the bottom of the cylindrical clay blank will fall onto the stopped belt conveyor 1. The blank cutting frame plate 201 assists in cutting the cylindrical clay blank. At this time, the telescopic cylinder 301 is activated, driving the cutting blade 302 to move and cut the cylindrical clay blank. After cutting, the belt conveyor 1 is activated, causing the cut clay blank block to be conveyed forward to the waiting blank clamp 410, where it is positioned by infrared positioning. When the sensor 411 detects the material, the conveying stops. During the process, the remaining clay body falls onto the stopped conveyor belt and continues to be cut. Under the action of the electric push rod 4, the fixed crossbar 401 is driven down. The drive motor 406 drives the active gear 407 and the driven gear 408 to mesh, so that the connecting rod bracket 409 drives the two sets of clay body clamps 410 to clamp the clay body block. Then, the electric push rod 4 drives the fixed crossbar 401 to move up, and the forward and reverse motors 402 drive the rotating screw 403 to rotate. Under the thread drive, the screw sleeve 404 moves laterally. Finally, the clay body clamps 410 are controlled to grab the cut clay material and transport it into the plaster mold.

Their structure, circuit, and control principle are all existing known technologies. Therefore, the structure, circuit, and control principle of the controller, telescopic cylinder, electric push rod, forward and reverse motor, drive motor, and infrared position sensor will not be described in detail here.
