[0019] Reference Figures 1-7An electrically driven fabric folding device includes a frame 1 with a placement plate 11 on it. Vertical arms 12 are mounted on both sides of the frame 1 and connected to pull roller components 2. The pull roller components 2 are located above the placement plate 11 and include a drive roller 21 and a driven roller 22 spaced apart. Both the drive roller 21 and the driven roller 22 are rotatably positioned between the two sets of vertical arms 12, forming a gap through which the fabric passes. One end of the drive roller 21 is connected to a first drive motor 211, which provides power to the drive roller 21. This eliminates the need for manual pulling of the fabric, achieving automated fabric conveying and reducing manual labor intensity and operational errors. Simultaneously, the motor-driven rotation speed is stable and controllable, preventing fabric accumulation or stretching deformation caused by inconsistent speeds during manual conveying. This ensures continuous and stable fabric conveying, and after the fabric passes through the gap between the two rollers, it accurately falls into the preset area of ​​the placement plate 11, preventing the fabric from shifting outside the placement plate 11 or becoming misaligned, thus adapting to the rhythm requirements of an automated fabric folding production line. A motion module 3 is also provided on the boom 12. The motion module 3 includes a housing 31, which is vertically mounted on the boom 12 and located above the platform 1. A transmission component 32 is provided inside the housing 31, which includes a drive wheel 321 and a driven wheel 322. A second drive motor 3211 is provided outside the housing 31 and connected to the drive wheel 321. The two sets of second drive motors 3211 are connected in a one-to-two manner through a servo driver, so that the two sets of second drive motors 3211 rotate synchronously. A synchronous belt 323 is connected between the drive wheel 321 and the driven wheel 322. The inner wall of 23 is provided with a groove 3231 that meshes with the teeth 324. The second drive motor 3211 drives the drive wheel 321 to rotate. Through the meshing transmission of the teeth 324 and the groove 3231, the synchronous belt 323 can move at a constant speed, reducing the problems of slippage and step loss of traditional flat belts. A lead screw 33 is installed on the driven wheel 322. The connection method between the driven wheel 322 and the lead screw 33 is well known to those skilled in the art, so it will not be described in detail in this application. One end of the lead screw 33 is connected to the housing 31 through a lead screw bearing seat. A bearing seat 331 is installed on the lead screw 33. The bearing seat 331 moves in the direction of rotation of the lead screw 33. The housing 31 has two sets of spaced slots 311. Connecting portions 3311 are provided on both sides of the bearing seat 331. Parts of the two sets of connecting portions 3311 pass through the slots 311 and are fitted with support plates 34. The support plates 34 are located on the outside of the housing 31. Receiving seats 35 are movably mounted on the support plates 34. Two sets of spaced rollers 36 are installed between the two sets of receiving seats 35. Through the cooperation of the transmission component 32, the rollers 36 can reciprocate along the length of the slots 311. The bearing seat 331 is connected by the connecting portions 3311 on both sides. 11 drives the support plate 34 to move, which can ensure that the roller 36 always remains horizontal during the movement, avoiding the roller tilting caused by unilateral force. In addition, the slot 311 of the housing 31 forms a rigid guide for the bearing seat 331, preventing the bearing seat 331 from shifting. Ultimately, it ensures that the positioning error is small when the roller 36 moves along the length of the slot 311. Furthermore, when the roller 36 contacts and pushes the fabric, it can smooth the fabric, allowing the roller 36 to use rolling friction instead of sliding friction, thereby reducing frictional damage to the fabric surface.

[0020] Based on the above structure, the fabric is placed between the driving roller 21 and the driven roller 22 of the roller assembly 2. When the driving roller 21 is in cooperation with the first drive motor 211, it can drive the fabric to move towards the position of the placement plate 11. When the fabric is on the placement plate 11, the roller 36 in the motion module 3 abuts against the fabric. Since the roller 36 is mounted on the support plate 34 connected to the bearing seat 331 via the bearing seat 35, and the bearing seat 331 is located on the lead screw 33, when the driving wheel 321 rotates in cooperation with the second drive motor 3211, it can drive the driven wheel 322 to rotate via the synchronous belt 323, thereby... The driven wheel 322 drives the screw 33 to rotate synchronously, thereby moving the fabric with the roller 36. When the fabric with the roller 36 moves to the designated position, the second drive motor 3211 drives the drive wheel 321 to rotate, causing the roller 36 to move the fabric in the opposite direction, thus completing the initial layer stacking operation. Repeating the above operation enables the stacking of the fabric. By setting motor parameters such as moving speed and reciprocating stroke, the roller 36 can be automatically reciprocated, ensuring the consistency of each stacking action, avoiding the problem of different stacking force or position for each layer caused by manual operation, ensuring the neatness of the stacked fabric, and improving operating efficiency.

[0021] The first drive motor 211 and the second drive motor 3211 mentioned above are servo drive motors in the prior art, which can achieve precise rotation through motor control.

[0022] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 7The shelf 11 has several overflow holes 111, which are evenly distributed on the shelf 11. The several overflow holes 111 can accommodate fabrics of different sizes on the shelf 11. The bottom of the shelf 11 is provided with a flow guide seat 112, which has a flow guide opening that passes through both ends of the flow guide seat 112. The several overflow holes 111 are located in the flow guide opening. The flow guide seat 112 is used to guide and collect the airflow. A fan component 4 is provided on one side of the stand 1. The fan component 4 adopts the axial flow fan in the prior art. The fan component 4 is connected to the other end of the guide opening through the pipe. When the fabric is placed on the shelf 11, the fan component 4 starts to generate negative pressure. The airflow acts on the fabric below through the guide opening of the guide seat 112 and the overflow hole 111 of the shelf 11. Under the action of negative pressure, the fabric is tightly adsorbed and adhered to the surface of the shelf 11, so as to achieve flat positioning of the fabric and avoid the fabric shifting or wrinkling during the stacking process.

[0023] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 One end of the stand 1 is provided with a support 13, and the support 13 is provided with a fabric pressing assembly 5. The fabric pressing assembly 5 presses the fabric from one end to prevent shaking when the fabric is folded. The fabric pressing assembly 5 includes a first push rod component 51, which is a pneumatic push rod in the prior art. The piston end of the first push rod component 51 passes through the support 13 and is mounted with a support plate 52. Several pressure plates 521 are provided on the support plate 52 and are spaced apart along the length of the support plate 52. Through the cooperation of the first push rod component 51, the pressure plates 521 are moved closer to or away from the shelf 11. When the first push rod component 51 extends, the pad 62... As the fabric moves toward the inner wall of the slot 3231, the squeezing area shrinks, clamping the edge of the fabric between the pad 62 and the slot 3231, assisting in the positioning of the fabric end or guiding the fabric conveying. When the first push rod component 51 retracts, the squeezing area expands, releasing the fabric to allow it to move or stack, thereby achieving the positioning of one end of the fabric. An extension plate 522 is movably mounted on the pressure plate 521. A slot 5211 is provided on the side of the pressure plate 521 facing the shelf 11. Several slots 5211 are spaced apart. A convex shaft is provided on the extension plate 522. By embedding the convex shaft into the slot 5211, the extension plate 522 is mounted on the pressure plate 521. When stacking narrow fabrics, there is no need to install the extension plate 522; the original pressure plate 521 is sufficient to cover the width of the fabric. When stacking wide fabrics, the convex shaft of the extension plate 522 is embedded into the slot 5211 of the pressure plate 521, thereby extending the overall length of the pressure plate 521 and quickly expanding the fabric pressing range. Furthermore, the cooperation between the convex shaft and the slot 5211 enables a plug-in detachable connection, improving the convenience of operation.

[0024] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 The other end of the frame 1 is provided with a top fabric assembly 6. The top fabric assembly 6 and the pressing fabric assembly 5 cooperate to squeeze and limit the fabric at both ends. A groove 3231 is formed between the frame 1 and the shelf 11. The groove 3231 can be used to accommodate the fabric. The top fabric assembly 6 includes a second push rod component 61. The second push rod component 61 can be a pneumatic push rod in the prior art. The piston end of the second push rod component 61 extends into the groove 3231 and is connected to a pad 62. A squeezing area for the fabric is formed between the pad 62 and the groove 3231. Through the cooperation of the second push rod component 61, the squeezing area can be expanded or reduced. The adjustable top fabric assembly 6 reduces the problem of slippage when fabrics of different thicknesses are stacked. According to the thickness of the stacked fabric, the position of the pad 62 is adjusted by the extension and retraction of the second push rod component 61, thereby limiting the fabric and preventing the fabric from shaking during the stacking process.

[0025] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 One of the support plates 34 is equipped with a third drive motor 341 on the side away from the support seat 35. The third drive motor 341 is a servo drive motor in the prior art. The support seat 35 has a cavity. The output end of the third drive motor 341 is connected to a coaxial gear 3421 and is located inside the support seat 35. The two sets of rollers 36 extend into the support seat 35 from the side near the third drive motor 341 and are respectively equipped with a first synchronous pulley and a second synchronous pulley. Two sets of synchronous belts are installed on the coaxial gear 3421 and are respectively connected to the first synchronous pulley and the second synchronous pulley. When the third drive motor 341 drives the coaxial gear 3421 to rotate, the first synchronous pulley and the second synchronous pulley can drive the two sets of rollers 36 to rotate relative to each other through the cooperation of the synchronous belts.

[0026] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 Both ends of the shelf 11 are provided with arc-shaped ends 113. When the fabric is on the shelf 11, the arc-shaped ends 113 can guide part of the fabric. When the fabric moves on the shelf 11, the edge smoothly transitions along the arc-shaped ends 113, reducing friction with the shelf 11 and preventing snagging, pilling, and edge damage. It is suitable for stacking high-end fabrics.
