Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to paper product manufacturing technology, and in particular to a paper tube turning and conveying device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, paper bag production generally uses a combination of a tube-making machine and a bottom-sealing machine to automate the paper bag processing. The tube-making machine is used to make strips of paper into paper tubes that are open at both ends, and the bottom-sealing machine is used to seal the ends of the paper tubes. The finished paper bags can be directly filled and packaged.

[0003] Paper tubes from the tube-making machine are typically stacked into paper tube stacks for use by the bottom-gluing machine. The two surfaces of the paper tubes are distinct; one surface is flat and used for printing trademarks and nameplates, while the other surface has folded edges. The orientation of these surfaces needs to be matched with subsequent processes. During production, the paper tube stacks need to be flipped to adjust the orientation of the paper tubes (up or down) and transport them to the next process. Currently, this is typically done manually or with a semi-automatic device. In practice, the paper tube stacks tend to become loose, causing displacement between paper tubes, affecting subsequent processing, and making it difficult to integrate with existing paper tube conveyor lines, thus impacting the efficiency of paper tube transfer. Utility Model Content The purpose of this utility model is to provide a paper tube turning and conveying device to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art, and at least provide a beneficial option or create conditions.

[0004] The technical solution adopted to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: This utility model provides a paper tube flipping and conveying device, comprising: A pressing and clamping mechanism includes a pressing component and two clamping components. The two clamping components are arranged opposite to each other along the pressing direction, and a clamping gap channel is formed between the two clamping components perpendicular to the pressing direction. The pressing component is used to drive the two clamping components to move closer and further apart from each other, so as to control the clamping gap channel to press or release the paper tube stack. The clamping components are used to drive the paper tube stack to be conveyed along the clamping gap channel. A flipping drive mechanism is used to synchronously drive the two clamping components to rotate around the flipping axis, so as to drive the paper tube stack clamped in the clamping gap channel to flip. The flipping axis is located at the center position between the two clamping components, and the flipping axis is respectively perpendicular to the pressing direction and the clamping gap channel.

[0005] The beneficial effects of this paper tube turning and conveying device are: In use, the paper tube stack is fed into the clamping gap channel from one side of the paper tube turning conveyor. The pressing component drives the two clamping components to move closer to each other, controlling the clamping gap channel to clamp the paper tube stack. Then, the turning drive mechanism drives the two clamping components to rotate around the turning axis, so that the paper tube stack clamped in the clamping gap channel is turned over until the two surfaces of the paper tube are interchanged, thus turning the paper tube over. Afterwards, the clamping components drive the paper tube stack to be output from the other side of the paper tube turning conveyor along the clamping gap channel, thereby realizing the pressing, turning and conveying of the paper tube stack, avoiding the phenomenon of loose storage of the paper tube stack during turning. In addition, when installing and using, the paper tube turning conveyor is connected in series with the existing conveyor line. Since the turning axis of the two clamping components is located at the center position between the two clamping components, both ends of the clamping gap channel can be connected to the conveyor lines on both sides before and after turning, improving the efficiency of paper tube stack transfer. In addition, when pressing the paper tube stack, air bubbles in the paper tube are squeezed out.

[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the conveying drive module includes an active roller, a driven roller, and a conveying drive unit. The active roller and the driven roller are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the clamping gap channel. The conveyor belt is tensioned and connected between the active roller and the driven roller. The conveying drive unit is drivenly connected to the active roller.

[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the clamping assembly further includes a pressure plate, which is disposed between the driving roller and the driven roller, and the pressure plate slides against the inner side of the conveyor belt facing away from the clamping gap channel.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the flipping drive mechanism includes a flipping frame and a flipping drive module for driving the flipping frame to rotate around the flipping axis; The clamping assembly includes a sliding frame, the pressure plate and the belt conveyor are both mounted on the sliding frame, and the sliding frame is slidably mounted on the tilting frame along the pressing direction.

The use of "first" and "second" is for distinguishing technical features only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, or implicitly indicating the number of technical features or their sequential relationship.

[0020] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0021] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described below are some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments.

[0022] In the prior art, when flipping the paper tube stack 300, the paper tube stack 300 is prone to loosening, which leads to easy displacement between paper tubes, affecting subsequent processing. Furthermore, it is difficult to match with the existing paper tube conveyor line 400, affecting the efficiency of paper tube transfer and conveying. Therefore, this utility model proposes a paper tube flipping and conveying device that can realize the pressing, flipping, and conveying of the paper tube stack 300, and can be matched with the conveyor line 400.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the paper tube flipping and conveying device of this utility model includes: a pressing and clamping mechanism 100 and a flipping drive mechanism 200.

[0024] Among them, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the pressing and clamping mechanism 100 includes a pressing assembly and two clamping assemblies 110, which are arranged opposite to each other along the pressing direction, as shown. Figure 2 As shown, when the two clamping components 110 are stationary, the pressing direction is up and down. When the two clamping components 110 rotate, the pressing direction is the direction in which the two clamping components 110 are arranged opposite each other.

[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a clamping gap channel 120 is formed between the two clamping components 110 and is perpendicular to the pressing direction. When the two clamping components 110 are stationary, the clamping gap channel 120 extends in the left and right direction. The clamping components 110 are used to drive the paper tube stack 300 to be conveyed along the clamping gap channel 120. In use, after the paper tube stack 300 is conveyed into the clamping gap channel 120, the clamping components 110 can drive the paper tube stack 300 to be conveyed in the left and right direction.

[0026] The pressing assembly of this utility model is used to drive the two clamping assemblies 110 to move closer and further apart, so as to control the clamping gap channel 120 to press or loosen the paper tube stack 300. The paper tube stack 300 is pressed by the clamping gap channel 120, mainly to prevent the paper tube stack 300 from loosening during the flipping process. At the same time, after the flipping is completed, the paper tube stack 300 can continue to be driven for conveying. When pressing the paper tube stack 300, air bubbles in the paper tube can also be squeezed out.

[0027] The flipping drive mechanism 200 of this utility model is used to synchronously drive two clamping components 110 to rotate around the flipping axis, so as to drive the paper tube stack 300 clamped in the clamping gap channel 120 to flip. The flipping axis is located at the center position between the two clamping components 110, and the flipping axis is perpendicular to the pressing direction and the clamping gap channel 120 respectively. It can be understood that the flipping axis is a virtual component. The flipping axis extends in the front-back direction. The left and right ends of the clamping gap channel 120 rotate synchronously around the front-back extending flipping axis. In this way, the distance between the flipping axis and the left and right ends of the clamping gap channel 120 is equal, so that the left and right ends of the clamping gap channel 120 are in the same position before and after the flipping, and the two ends of the clamping gap channel 120 can be connected with the conveyor lines 400 on both sides before and after the flipping.

[0028] In use, the paper tube stack 300 enters the feeding gap channel 120 from the right side. At this time, the feeding assembly 110 below supports and conveys the paper tube stack 300. After the paper tube stack 300 is completely fed into the feeding gap channel 120, the pressing assembly drives the two feeding assemblies 110 to move closer to each other, controlling the feeding gap channel 120 to clamp the paper tube stack 300 from top to bottom. Then, the flipping drive mechanism 200 drives the two feeding assemblies 110 to rotate around the flipping axis, so as to flip the paper tube stack 300 in the feeding gap channel 120 to the point where the two surfaces of the paper tube are interchanged, thus flipping the paper tube. Afterwards, the feeding assembly 110 drives the paper tube stack 300 to be output from the left side along the feeding gap channel 120, thereby realizing the pressing, flipping and conveying of the paper tube stack 300, avoiding the phenomenon of loose storage of the paper tube stack 300 during flipping. Furthermore, during installation and use, if... Figure 4 As shown, the paper tube flipping conveyor is connected in series with the existing conveyor line 400, so that both ends of the clamping gap channel 120 can connect with the conveyor lines 400 on both sides before and after flipping, thereby improving the efficiency of paper tube stack 300 transfer.

[0029] When outputting the paper tube stack 300, the paper tube stack 300 can be released and pushed to the left by the clamping assembly 110 below, or the paper tube stack 300 can be output to the left simultaneously by the two clamping assemblies 110 without releasing the paper tube stack 300.

[0030] In some other embodiments, when it is not necessary to flip the paper tube stack 300, the lower clamping assembly 110 is a segment of the conveyor line 400, and the paper tube stack 300 is conveyed forward along the lower clamping assembly 110.

[0031] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the clamping assembly 110 in this embodiment includes a belt conveyor, which includes a conveyor belt 111 and a conveying drive module for driving the conveyor belt 111 to circulate. The clamping gap channel 120 is formed between the two opposing sides of the two conveyor belts 111. In this embodiment, the paper tube stack 300 is conveyed by the belt conveyor, and the paper tube stack 300 is also pressed by the conveyor belt 111 to increase the contact area with the paper tube stack 300 and improve the stability of the flipping.

[0032] In some other embodiments, the clamping assembly 110 may employ a conveyor roller structure to drive the paper tube stack 300 for conveying and pressing the paper tube stack 300.

[0033] Among them, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the conveying drive module of this embodiment includes a drive roller 112, a driven roller 113, and a conveying drive unit 114. The drive roller 112 and the driven roller 113 are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the clamping gap channel 120. The drive roller 112 and the driven roller 113 extend in the front-back direction, respectively. The conveyor belt 111 is stretched and connected between the drive roller 112 and the driven roller 113 in a left-right extension. The conveying drive unit 114 is connected to the drive roller 112 in a transmission connection.

[0034] The conveying drive unit 114 can be a motor directly, or a motor and pulley drive structure.

[0035] To improve the stability of pressing the paper tube stack 300, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the clamping assembly 110 also includes a pressure plate 115, which is located between the drive roller 112 and the driven roller 113. The pressure plate 115 slides against the inner side of the conveyor belt 111 facing away from the clamping gap channel 120, which is equivalent to supporting the conveyor belt 111 through the pressure plate 115 to improve the clamping force on the paper tube stack 300.

[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the flipping drive mechanism 200 of this embodiment includes a flipping frame 210 and a flipping drive module 220 for driving the flipping frame 210 to rotate around the flipping axis. The clamping assembly 110 also includes a sliding frame 116. The pressure plate 115 and the belt conveyor are both mounted on the sliding frame 116. The sliding frame 116 is slidably mounted on the flipping frame 210 along the pressing direction.

[0037] Specifically, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the sliding frame 116 of this embodiment is provided with a plurality of guide posts 117 extending along the pressing direction, and the flipping frame 210 is fixed with a plurality of guide sleeves 211 that slide in cooperation with the plurality of guide posts 117.

[0038] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the pressing assembly of this embodiment includes two pressing drive structures 118, which are respectively connected to two sliding frames 116. The pressing drive structure 118 is used to drive the sliding frame 116 to move along the pressing direction. In this embodiment, the pressing drive structure 118 is a cylinder and is mounted on the flipping frame 210.

[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the flipping frame 210 of this embodiment includes two end plates 212 spaced apart in the front-back direction, two crossbeams 213 connected between the two end plates 212, and two sliding frames 116 slidably mounted on the two crossbeams 213 respectively.

[0040] The paper tube flipping conveyor in this embodiment also includes a frame 500. Two end plates 212 are connected to rotating shafts 214 at opposite ends. The rotating shafts 214 extend in the front-back direction and are rotatably connected to the frame 500.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, the flip drive module 220 of this embodiment includes a driven gear 221, a driving gear 222 meshing with the driven gear 221, and a flip motor 223 that is connected to the driving gear 222 in a transmission manner. The driven gear 221 is coaxially fixed to one of the end plates 212, and the flip motor 223 is mounted on the frame 500.

[0042] In the description of this specification, the references to terms such as "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "illustrative embodiment," "example," "specific example," or "some examples," etc., indicate that a specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment or example is included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention.
