Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of material feeding technology, and more specifically, relates to a material feeding device and a die-cutting equipment. Background Technology

[0002] An aerosol generating device is a device used to heat an aerosol generating matrix to form an aerosol. This device typically includes absorbent cotton, which can be placed in the air duct of the device. The absorbent cotton absorbs and stores the aerosol generating matrix or condensate in the air duct, thereby mitigating leakage of the aerosol generating matrix or condensate. Therefore, the manufacturing process of an aerosol generating device includes the process of generating absorbent cotton.

[0003] The general production process of absorbent cotton is as follows: first, a die-cutting operation is carried out on the material strip to divide the outline of the absorbent cotton in the material strip; then, a discharge device is used to discharge the absorbent cotton from the material strip.

[0004] However, the versatility of discharge devices is generally poor, and the model of the discharge device and the model of the conveyor belt are usually set in a one-to-one correspondence. In the production process of absorbent cotton, when changing to different conveyor belts, the corresponding model of discharge device must be replaced, which reduces the production efficiency of the aerosol generation device.

[0005] The above statements are for the purpose of providing background information in relation to this application only and do not necessarily constitute prior art. Utility Model Content

[0012] In some embodiments, the first mounting portion and the second mounting portion are respectively disposed at opposite ends of the connecting portion along a third direction; Among them, the third direction is perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction, respectively.

[0013] In some embodiments, the position of the pusher relative to the first mounting portion along the second direction is set to be adjustable.

The second through hole and the second opening groove are distributed and connected along a third direction, and the second opening groove is located at one end of the first mounting member along the third direction.

The connecting part and the third clamping sections of the two second clamping arms surround to form a second through hole. The fourth clamping sections of the two second clamping arms are spaced apart to form a second opening groove. The pusher is inserted through the second through hole along a second direction. The second locking member is connected to the fourth clamping sections of the two second clamping arms and is used to drive the two fourth clamping sections to move closer to each other along a first direction. Among them, the third direction is perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction, respectively.

[0016] In some embodiments, the second locking member passes through the fourth clamping section of the plurality of pusher structures along the first direction and is used to lock the plurality of pusher members onto the plurality of first mounting members.

[0018] In some embodiments, the mounting structure includes a mounting base and a second mounting member, the second mounting member being mounted on the mounting base, the position of the second mounting member relative to the mounting base along a fourth direction being adjustable, and a pusher structure being mounted on the second mounting member; wherein the first direction and the fourth direction are perpendicular.

When changing to different types of conveyor belts, the position of each pushing structure relative to the installation structure in the first direction can be adjusted according to the number of products arranged in each row along the first direction on the conveyor belt. This ensures that at least some pushing structures correspond to the multiple products arranged along the first direction on the conveyor belt, thereby enabling at least some pushing structures to correspondingly push the multiple products arranged along the first direction on the conveyor belt. Therefore, the versatility of the feeding device is improved.

In particular, the technical features mentioned in the various embodiments can be combined in any manner, provided there is no structural conflict. This application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.

[0036] It should be noted that although the feeding device and die-cutting equipment involved in the embodiments of this application were developed and designed based on the common problems encountered in the production process of absorbent cotton, the application scenarios of the feeding device and die-cutting equipment are not limited to this. They can be applied to any scenario that requires die-cutting and pushing. It can be understood that the feeding device can not only be used to push absorbent cotton in the material strip, but also to push other products in the material strip besides absorbent cotton.

[0037] The following detailed description is provided in conjunction with specific accompanying drawings and embodiments: Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 ,in, Figure 1 This is a perspective structural diagram of the discharge device provided in some embodiments of this application. Figure 2 for Figure 1Enlarged view at point A. The material discharge device provided in this application embodiment includes an installation structure 10 and multiple material pushing structures 20. The multiple material pushing structures 20 are sequentially arranged on the installation structure 10 along a first direction X. The position of each material pushing structure 20 relative to the installation structure 10 along the first direction X is adjustable. The material pushing structure 20 is used for pushing materials.

[0038] Installation structure 10 refers to the structure used for installing the material discharge structure.

[0039] The pusher structure 20 refers to the structure used for pushing materials. After the die-cutting device performs die-cutting on the strip, the pusher structure 20 is used to push the product out of the strip. The product may be, but is not limited to, absorbent cotton.

[0040] The first direction X is the distribution direction of the multiple pusher structures 20.

[0041] The position of each pusher structure 20 relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X is set to be adjustable, which means that each pusher structure 20 can move relative to the mounting structure 10 and alternately move to multiple different positions of the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X.

[0042] The material feeding device provided in this application embodiment comprises multiple pushing structures 20 sequentially arranged on the mounting structure 10 along a first direction X. The position of each pushing structure 20 relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X is adjustable, allowing for a larger number of pushing structures 20 to be arranged in the feeding device, such that the number of pushing structures 20 is greater than or equal to the number of products per row on the conveyor belt. Thus, when changing to different types of conveyor belts, the position of each pushing structure 20 relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X can be adjusted according to the number of products arranged in each row along the first direction X on the conveyor belt. This ensures that at least some pushing structures 20 correspond to the multiple products arranged along the first direction X on the conveyor belt, thereby enabling at least some pushing structures 20 to correspondingly push the multiple products arranged along the first direction X on the conveyor belt. Therefore, the versatility of the feeding device is improved.

[0043] Understandably, the strip includes multiple rows of products, each row of products including multiple products arranged along a first direction X.

[0044] Specifically, after changing the conveyor belt, the position of each pusher structure 20 relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X can be adjusted according to the number of products in each row on the conveyor belt. For example, after changing the conveyor belt, the number of products in each row on the conveyor belt is the same as the number of pusher structures 20. By adjusting the position of each pusher structure 20 relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X, multiple pusher structures 20 can be configured to correspond one-to-one with multiple products in each row, so that multiple pusher structures 20 can be used one-to-one to push out multiple products in each row. As another example, after changing the conveyor belt, the number of pusher structures 20 is greater than the number of products in each row on the conveyor belt. By adjusting the position of each pusher structure 20 relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X, the number of a portion of the pusher structures 20 can be the same as the number of products in each row on the material strip, and the portion of pusher structures 20 can be set one-to-one with the multiple products in each row, while the other portion of pusher structures 20 is moved away from the portion of pusher structures 20 along the first direction X. In this way, the portion of pusher structures 20 can be used one-to-one to push out the multiple products in each row.

[0045] This design allows the discharge device to be used with various types of material strips, thus improving its versatility.

[0046] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The pushing structure 20 includes a first mounting member 21, a pushing member 22, and a first locking member 23. The first mounting member 21 is mounted on the mounting structure 10, and the pushing member 22 is mounted on the first mounting member 21 and is used for pushing materials. The first locking member 23 is disposed on the first mounting member 21 and has a first unlocked state and a first locked state. In the first unlocked state, the first mounting member 21 can move relative to the mounting structure 10 along a first direction X to adjust the position of the pushing structure 20 relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X. In the first locked state, the first locking member 23 locks the first mounting member 21 onto the mounting structure 10.

[0047] The pusher component 22 refers to the component in the pusher structure 20 used for pushing materials. The pusher component 22 may be, but is not limited to, rod-shaped.

[0048] The first mounting component 21 refers to the component used to mount the pusher component 22 and to mount the pusher structure 20 onto the mounting structure 10.

[0049] The first locking element 23 refers to the component used to lock the first mounting element 21 onto the mounting structure 10. The first locking element 23 can be a bolt, a clip, or a similar structure.

[0050] The first locking member 23 has a first unlocked state and a first locked state, meaning that the first locking member 23 can move relative to the first mounting member 21 to switch between the first unlocked state and the first locked state.

[0051] Understandably, when the first locking member 23 switches to the first unlocking state, the first mounting member 21 releases the mounting structure 10, so that the first mounting member 21 can drive the pusher member 22 to move along the first direction X relative to the mounting structure 10, thereby adjusting the position of the first mounting member 21 along the first direction X relative to the mounting structure 10.

[0052] When the first locking member 23 switches to the first locking state, the first locking member 23 locks the first mounting member 21 onto the mounting structure 10. The first mounting member 21 is fixed relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X, so that the first mounting member 21 and the pusher member 22 cannot move relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X.

[0053] Understandably, the first locking state of the first locking member 23 refers to the state of the first locking member 23 when the first mounting member 21 is essentially unable to move relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X. The first unlocking state of the first locking member 23 refers to the state of the first locking member 23 when the first mounting member 21 can move relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X.

[0054] In the first locked state, the first locking member 23 may have one or more different specific positions. Similarly, in the first unlocked state, the first locking member 23 may also have one or more different specific positions; for example, the first locking member 23 may be detached from the first mounting member 21 or may remain connected to it. For instance, when the first locking member 23 is a bolt, it may have multiple positions with different degrees of tightening in both the first locked and first unlocked states.

[0055] By adopting the above technical solution, the position of the pusher structure 20 relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X is adjustable, thereby making the position of the pusher 22 along the first direction X adjustable.

[0056] Specifically, the adjustment process of the pusher structure 20 relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X is as follows: first, switch the first locking member 23 to the first unlocking state so that the first mounting member 21 releases the mounting structure 10, then drive the first mounting member 21 to move along the first direction X relative to the mounting structure 10 to the target position, and finally switch the first locking member 23 to the first locking state so that the first locking member 23 locks the first mounting member 21 on the mounting structure 10.

[0057] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first mounting component 21 includes a connecting portion 211, a first mounting portion 212, and a second mounting portion 213. The first mounting portion 212 is disposed on the connecting portion 211, and the pusher 22 is mounted on the first mounting portion 212. The second mounting portion 213 includes two first clamping arms 2131 arranged along a second direction Z on the connecting portion 211, and the mounting structure 10 is disposed between the two first clamping arms 2131, wherein the second direction Z is perpendicular to the first direction X. A first locking member 23 connects the two first clamping arms 2131 and is used to drive the two first clamping arms 2131 to move towards each other along the second direction Z. In the first locked state, the two first clamping arms 2131 jointly clamp the mounting structure 10. In the first unlocked state, the first clamping arms 2131 release the mounting structure 10.

[0058] The connecting part 211, the first mounting part 212, and the second mounting part 213 are the three parts of the first mounting member 21. The first mounting member 21 can be a one-piece molded structure or a separate connecting structure. The first mounting part 212 is used to mount the pusher 22, and the second mounting part 213 is used to connect with the mounting structure 10.

[0059] Understandably, the first locking member 23 is used to connect to the two first clamping arms 2131 and to drive the two first clamping arms 2131 to move closer to each other along the first direction X, so that the two first clamping arms 2131 jointly clamp the mounting structure 10.

[0060] In the first locked state, the two first clamping arms 2131 move towards each other under the drive of the first locking member 23 and jointly clamp the mounting structure 10, so that the first locking member 23 locks the first mounting member 21 onto the mounting structure 10. Based on this, the first mounting member 21 is basically unable to move relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X.

[0061] When the first locking member 23 is in the first unlocked state, the first clamping arm 2131 releases the mounting structure 10, so that the first mounting member 21 is not locked onto the mounting structure 10. Based on this, the first mounting member 21 can move relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X.

[0062] By adopting the above technical solution, the first mounting component 21 can be locked on the mounting structure 10, and can also move relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X to adjust the position of the pusher structure 20 relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X.

[0063] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2The first mounting member 21 is provided with a first through hole 201 and a first opening groove 202. Both the first through hole 201 and the first opening groove 202 penetrate the first mounting member 21 along the first direction X. The first through hole 201 and the first opening groove 202 are distributed and connected along the third direction Y1. The first opening groove 202 is located at one end of the first mounting member 21 along the third direction Y1. In the second direction Z, the size of the first through hole 201 is larger than the size of the first opening groove 202. The first clamping arm 2131 includes a first clamping section 21311 and a second clamping section 21312 arranged along a third direction Y1. The first clamping section 21311 is connected to the connecting part 211. The connecting part 211 and the first clamping sections 21311 of the two first clamping arms 2131 form a first through hole 201. The second clamping sections 21312 of the two first clamping arms 2131 are spaced apart to form a first opening groove 202. The mounting structure 10 passes through the first through hole 201 along a first direction X. The first locking member 23 connects the second clamping sections 21312 of the two first clamping arms 2131 and is used to drive the two second clamping sections 21312 to move closer to each other along a second direction Z. Wherein, the third direction Y1 is perpendicular to the first direction X and the third direction Y1 is perpendicular to the second direction Z.

[0064] Understandably, the first locking member 23 is used to drive the second clamping sections 21312 of the two first clamping arms 2131 to move closer together in the second direction Z, thereby reducing the size of the first opening slot 202 and the first through hole 201 in the second direction Z, so that the first clamping sections 21311 of the two first clamping arms 2131 clamp the mounting structure 10 in the opposite direction. That is, in the first locked state, the first locking member 23 clamps the first clamping sections 21311 of the two first clamping arms 2131 in the opposite direction to the mounting structure 10, so that the first mounting member 21 is locked on the mounting structure 10. In the first unlocked state, the first clamping sections 21311 of the first locking member 23 release the mounting structure 10.

[0065] By making the dimension of the first through hole 201 along the second direction Z larger than the dimension of the first opening groove 202 along the second direction Z, the mounting structure 10 can be limited through the first through hole 201, specifically limited within the first through hole 201 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction X. Thus, the mounting structure 10 is difficult to detach from the first through hole 201 through the first opening groove 202, and therefore difficult to detach from the first mounting member 21.

[0066] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first locking member 23 includes a first bolt, which is used to pass through the second clamping section 21312 of the two first clamping arms 2131 along the third direction Y1 and to lock onto the second clamping section 21312.

[0067] The first bolt can be threadedly connected to the second clamping section 21312 of the two first clamping arms 2131. Alternatively, the first bolt can cooperate with the first nut to lock the second clamping section 21312 of the two first clamping arms 2131, thereby causing the first locking member 23 to switch to the first locking state.

[0068] This configuration makes the connection between the first locking member 23 and the first mounting member 21 very simple, and the operation of switching the first locking member 23 between the first unlocked state and the first locked state is also very simple.

[0069] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first mounting member 21 is configured such that, when the first locking member 23 is in the first unlocked state, the first mounting member 21 can rotate relative to the mounting structure 10 along the axis of the first direction X.

[0070] Understandably, when the first locking member 23 is in the first unlocked state, the first mounting member 21 can not only move relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X to adjust the position of the pushing structure 20 relative to the mounting structure 10 along the first direction X; the first mounting member 21 can also rotate relative to the mounting structure 10 along the axis of the first direction X to adjust the angle of the pushing structure 20 relative to the mounting structure 10, specifically adjusting the pushing direction of the pushing member 22.

[0071] That is, depending on the arrangement of the conveyor belt, the angle of the pusher structure 20 relative to the mounting structure 10 can be adjusted so that the pusher structure 20 can accurately point to the product on the conveyor belt to push the product out of the conveyor belt. This further improves the versatility of the discharge device.

[0072] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first mounting portion 212 and the second mounting portion 213 are respectively disposed at opposite ends of the connecting portion 211 along the third direction Y1. The third direction Y1 is perpendicular to the first direction X and perpendicular to the second direction Z.

[0073] This arrangement allows the first mounting part 212 and the second mounting part 213 to be positioned separately, thereby resolving the interference problem between the second mounting part 213 and the pusher 22. Furthermore, it facilitates the adjustment of the position of the pusher 22 relative to the mounting structure 10 along the second direction Z.

[0074] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The position of the pusher 22 relative to the first mounting part 212 along the second direction Z is set to be adjustable.

[0075] Understandably, depending on the condition of the material belt, the position of the pusher 22 relative to the first mounting part 212 along the second direction Z can be adjusted, that is, the position of the pusher 22 relative to the mounting structure 10 along the second direction Z can be adjusted, which helps to further improve the versatility of the discharge device.

[0076] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first mounting portion 212 includes two second clamping arms 2121 disposed on the connecting portion 211 along a first direction X, and a pusher 22 disposed between the two second clamping arms 2121. The discharge device also includes a second locking member 30, which connects the two second clamping arms 2121 and drives the two second clamping arms 2121 to move towards each other along the first direction X. The second locking member 30 has a second unlocked state and a second locked state. In the second locked state, the two second clamping arms 2121 jointly clamp the pusher 22, and the pusher 22 is fixed relative to the first mounting portion 212 along the second direction Z. In the second unlocked state, the second clamping arms 2121 release the pusher 22, and the pusher 22 can move relative to the second clamping arms 2121 along the second direction Z to adjust the position of the pusher 22 relative to the first mounting portion 212 along the second direction Z.

[0077] The second locking element 30 refers to the component used to lock the pusher 22 onto the first mounting portion 212. The second locking element 30 can be a bolt, a clip, or the like.

[0078] The second locking member 30 has a second unlocked state and a second locked state, meaning that the second locking member 30 can move relative to the first mounting part 212 to switch between the second unlocked state and the second locked state.

[0079] Understandably, the first locking member 23 is connected to the two first clamping arms 2131 and is used to drive the two first clamping arms 2131 to move closer to each other along the first direction X so that the two first clamping arms 2131 jointly clamp the mounting structure 10.

[0080] In the second locked state, the two second clamping arms 2121 move towards each other under the drive of the second locking member 30 and jointly clamp the pusher 22, so that the second locking member 30 locks the pusher 22 onto the first mounting part 212. Based on this, the pusher 22 is basically unable to move relative to the first mounting part 21 along the second direction Z.

[0081] When the second locking member 30 is in the second unlocked state, the second clamping arm 2121 releases the pusher 22 so that the pusher 22 is not locked onto the first mounting member 21. Based on this, the pusher 22 can move relative to the first mounting member 21 along the second direction Z.

[0082] By adopting the above technical solution, the pusher 22 can be locked on the first mounting member 21, and can also move relative to the first mounting member 21 along the second direction Z to adjust the position of the pusher 22 relative to the mounting structure 10 along the second direction Z.

[0083] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first mounting member 21 is provided with a second through hole 203 and a second opening groove 204. Both the second through hole 203 and the second opening groove 204 penetrate the first mounting member 21 along the second direction Z. The second through hole 203 and the second opening groove 204 are distributed and connected along the third direction Y1. The second opening groove 204 is located at one end of the first mounting member 21 along the third direction Y1. In the first direction X, the size of the second through hole 203 is larger than the size of the second opening groove 204. The second clamping arm 2121 includes a third clamping section 21211 and a fourth clamping section 21212 arranged along a third direction Y1. The third clamping section 21211 is connected to a connecting part 211. The connecting part 211 and the third clamping sections 21211 of the two second clamping arms 2121 form a second through hole 203. The fourth clamping sections 21212 of the two second clamping arms 2121 are spaced apart to form second opening slots 204. A pusher 22 passes through the second through hole 203 along a second direction Z. A second locking member 30 connects to the fourth clamping sections 21212 of the two second clamping arms 2121 and is used to drive the two fourth clamping sections 21212 to move closer to each other along a first direction X. The third direction Y1 is perpendicular to the first direction X and perpendicular to the second direction Z.

[0084] Understandably, the second locking member 30 is used to drive the fourth clamping sections 21212 of the two second clamping arms 2121 to move closer together in the first direction X, thereby reducing the size of the second opening slot 204 and the second through hole 203 in the first direction X, so that the third clamping sections 21211 of the two second clamping arms 2121 clamp the pusher 22 in the opposite direction. That is, in the second locked state, the second locking member 30 clamps the pusher 22 in the opposite direction with the third clamping sections 21211 of the two second clamping arms 2121, so that the pusher 22 is locked on the first mounting member 21. In the second unlocked state, the second clamping section 21312 releases the pusher 22.

[0085] The second through hole 203, with its dimension along the first direction X being larger than that of the second opening groove 204 along the first direction X, allows the pusher 22 to be limited through the second through hole 203, specifically within the second through hole 203 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction Z. This makes it difficult for the pusher 22 to disengage from the second through hole 203 through the second opening groove 204, and thus difficult for it to disengage from the first mounting member 21.

[0086] In the second locked state, the second locking member 30 may have one or more different specific positions. Similarly, in the second unlocked state, the second locking member 30 may also have one or more different specific positions; for example, the second locking member 30 may be detached from the first mounting member 21 or may remain connected to it. For example, when the second locking member 30 is a bolt, it may have multiple positions with different degrees of tightening in both the second locked and second unlocked states.

[0087] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The second locking member 30 includes a second bolt, which is used to pass through the fourth clamping section 21212 of the two second clamping arms 2121 along the first direction X, and is used to lock onto the fourth clamping section 21212.

[0088] The second bolt can be threadedly connected to the fourth clamping section 21212 of the two second clamping arms 2121. Alternatively, the second bolt can cooperate with the second nut to lock the fourth clamping section 21212 of the two second clamping arms 2121, thereby causing the second locking member 30 to switch to the second locking state.

[0089] This configuration makes the connection between the second locking member 30 and the first mounting member 21 very simple, and the operation of switching the second locking member 30 between the second unlocked state and the second locked state is also very simple.

[0090] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The second locking member 30 is used to pass through the fourth clamping section 21212 of the plurality of pusher structures 20 along the first direction X, and is used to lock the plurality of pusher members 22 onto the plurality of first mounting members 21.

[0091] With this configuration, in the second locked state, the second locking member 30 locks the pushers 22 of the multiple pusher structures 20 onto their corresponding first mounting members 21. In the second unlocked state, the second locking member 30 releases the pushers 22 from the first mounting members 21 of the multiple pusher structures 20, thus allowing the pushers 22 of the multiple pusher structures 20 to be adjusted in position along the second direction Z, thereby simplifying the position adjustment operation of the pushers 22 along the second direction Z.

[0092] Specifically, the first through hole 201 and the second through hole 203 are spaced apart along the third direction Y1, and the first opening groove 202 and the second opening groove 204 are respectively disposed at opposite ends of the first mounting member 21 along the third direction Y1.

[0093] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The pusher 22 extends along the second direction Z and is used to push material along the second direction Z.

[0094] In this way, when the discharge device is working, the pusher 22 can be positioned directly opposite the product on the conveyor belt along the second direction Z. By driving the discharge device to move towards the conveyor belt along the second direction Z, the pusher 22 can push the product off the conveyor belt along the second direction Z. This arrangement can, on the one hand, improve the problem of the product on the conveyor belt bouncing up due to the reaction force when the discharge device discharges, and on the other hand, increase the discharge rate on the conveyor belt.

[0095] It should be further clarified that the second direction Z and the third direction Y1 are two mutually perpendicular directions defined based on the specific structure of the pusher structure 20, and are not uniquely defined directions in space. Both the second direction Z and the third direction Y1 can change with the movement of the pusher structure 20. Specifically, the pusher structure 20 can rotate relative to the mounting structure 10 along the axis containing the first direction X, causing the second direction Z and the third direction Y1 to rotate and change along the axis containing the first direction X. As an example, [the following is an example...] Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the second direction Z can be the thickness direction of the first mounting member 21, the third direction Y1 can be the length direction of the first mounting member 21, and the width direction of the first mounting member 21 is parallel to the first direction X.

[0096] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The mounting structure 10 includes a mounting base 11 and a second mounting member 12. The second mounting member 12 is mounted on the mounting base 11, and its position relative to the mounting base 11 along the fourth direction Y2 is adjustable. The pusher structure 20 is mounted on the second mounting member 12. The first direction X and the fourth direction Y2 are perpendicular.

[0097] By making the position of the second mounting component 12 relative to the mounting base 11 along the fourth direction Y2 adjustable, the position of the pushing structure 20 along the fourth direction Y2 can be adjusted according to the type and condition of the material strip. This further improves the versatility of the discharge device.

[0098] In some cases, the fourth direction Y2 can be parallel to or coincide with the third direction Y1.

[0099] Here, the first direction X and the fourth direction Y2 are two mutually perpendicular directions in a Cartesian coordinate system in space.

[0100] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2The mounting structure 10 also includes a third locking member 13. One of the mounting base 11 and the second mounting member 12 is provided with a first mounting hole 101, and the other is provided with a second mounting hole. The first mounting hole 101 and the second mounting hole are arranged opposite to each other.

[0101] Among them, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the mounting base 11 has a first mounting hole 101, and the second mounting component 12 has a second mounting hole. Alternatively, the mounting base 11 has a second mounting hole, and the second mounting component 12 has a first mounting hole 101.

[0102] In some possible designs, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first mounting hole 101 extends along the fourth direction Y2, and the third locking member 13 is inserted into the second mounting hole and is used to selectively lock one of a plurality of positions of the first mounting hole 101 along the fourth direction Y2.

[0103] Understandably, in the fourth direction Y2, the size of the first mounting hole 101 is larger than the size of the second mounting hole. Thus, the position of the second mounting member 12 relative to the mounting base 11 in the fourth direction Y2 can be adjusted by moving the second mounting member 12 relative to the mounting base 11, thereby adjusting the position of the pusher structure 20 relative to the mounting base 11 in the fourth direction Y2. After the position of the pusher structure 20 relative to the mounting base 11 in the fourth direction Y2 is adjusted, since the size of the first mounting hole 101 is larger than the size of the second mounting hole in the fourth direction Y2, the first mounting hole 101 can still be maintained opposite to the second mounting hole, allowing the first mounting hole 101 and the second mounting hole to still be fixed by the third locking member 13.

[0104] The first mounting hole 101 can be a slotted hole, such as a waist-shaped hole, a square hole, or an elliptical hole, that extends along the fourth direction Y2.

[0105] Alternatively, in some other possible designs, there may be multiple first mounting holes 101, which are spaced apart along the fourth direction Y2, and the third locking member 13 is inserted into the second mounting hole and is used to selectively connect with one of the multiple first mounting holes 101.

[0106] The second mounting member 12 moves relative to the mounting base 11 along the fourth direction Y2 to adjust its position relative to the mounting base 11 in the fourth direction Y2, thereby adjusting the position of the pusher structure 20 relative to the mounting base 11 along the fourth direction Y2. After the position of the pusher structure 20 relative to the mounting base 11 in the fourth direction Y2 is adjusted, the second mounting hole can be positioned opposite to the corresponding first mounting hole 101 among the plurality of first mounting holes 101, so that the first mounting hole 101 and the second mounting hole can be fixed by the third locking member 13.

[0107] The third locking component 13 can be a bolt, screw, or other similar structure.

[0108] This configuration allows the position of the pusher structure 20 relative to the mounting base 11 along the fourth direction Y2 to be adjustable, which helps to improve the versatility of the discharge device.

[0109] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cross-section of the pusher 22 is circular, square, elliptical or irregular in shape.

[0110] This design makes the pusher component 22 very flexible.

[0111] The die-cutting equipment provided in this application includes a feeding device and a die-cutting device. The die-cutting device is used to die-cut the material strip, and the feeding device is used to push the die-cut products out of the material strip. The feeding device in this embodiment is the same as the feeding devices in the above embodiments; please refer to the relevant descriptions of the feeding devices in the above embodiments for details, which will not be repeated here.

[0112] A die-cutting apparatus is a device for die-cutting a strip of material. Specifically, the die-cutting apparatus may include a frame and a cutter mounted on the frame. The cutter is used to die-cut the strip of material to create the outline of a product on the strip.

[0113] Specifically, the die-cutting device is mounted on the mounting base 11 of the mounting structure 10, and specifically, the frame is mounted on the mounting base 11.
