Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of sanitary tampon production equipment, and in particular to a sanitary tampon thread-removing device. Background Technology

[0002] During manufacturing, tampons have a long cotton thread inside the tail section to help users remove the tampon. However, this long cotton thread is initially hidden inside the tampon during the initial manufacturing process. Therefore, in a later stage, the long cotton thread needs to be pulled out so that it can extend beyond the tampon.

[0003] The commonly used device for removing tampons involves using a high-pressure blower to suction out the long strands from the end of the tampon. However, high-pressure blowers are energy-intensive and noisy, and can also cause clogging of the tampon. They also generate a lot of heat, affecting the ambient temperature. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention aims to provide a device for dispensing tampons.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following solution:

[0006] This utility model provides a tampon thread dispensing device, characterized in that it includes: a tampon fixture containing a tampon with a cotton thread at the end; a vacuum generator positioned below the tampon fixture; and a clamping plate assembly positioned above the tampon fixture, including a fixed plate and a movable plate, with a clamping plate cylinder connected between the movable plate and the fixed plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the tampon thread dispensing device provided by this utility model may also have the following features: wherein the tampon fixture includes a plurality of cylindrical holes with openings at the top and bottom, and the vacuum generator is disposed at the opening near the bottom of the cylindrical holes.

[0008] Furthermore, the tampon thread dispensing device provided by this utility model may also have the following features: wherein the fixed plate and the movable plate are located at the opening at the upper end of the cylindrical hole.

[0009] Furthermore, the sanitary tampon thread dispensing device provided by this utility model may also have the following features: wherein the outer end of the piston rod of the clamp cylinder is connected to the moving plate to drive the moving plate to move closer to or away from the fixed plate.

[0010] The function and effects of this utility model:

[0011] 1. Compared with existing devices that use high-pressure blowers to remove tampons, the tampon thread removal device of this invention utilizes a vacuum generator located at the bottom of a cylindrical hole to adsorb the bottom of the tampon, thus sucking out the long thread at the end. The vacuum generator consumes less energy than a high-pressure blower, reducing the overall energy consumption of the device by approximately 50%.

[0012] 2. The vacuum generator of this utility model will not produce high noise during use, and the noise can be reduced by 80% compared with high pressure blowers.

[0013] 3. The vacuum generator of this invention will not cause clogging of tampons when adsorbing long cotton threads, and the entire process of removing cotton threads is more stable. Attached Figure Description

[0023] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easy to understand, the following embodiments, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, will specifically illustrate the technical solution of this utility model.

[0024] See Figures 1-3 The tampon thread removal device provided in this embodiment is installed in the thread removal station of the tampon production line and is used to pull the thread at the end of the tampon out from the inside of the tampon so that it can be exposed from the inside of the tampon.

[0025] See Figures 4-7 The tampon device includes a tampon fixture 10, a vacuum generator 20, and a clamp assembly 30.

[0026] The tampon holder 10 has several cylindrical holes, each with an opening at both the top and bottom. These cylindrical holes are used to hold tampons 11 to be processed. The tampons 11 are arranged as follows: Figure 8 As shown, this is a tampon with the outer film removed, but the long cotton thread is still wrapped around the end of the tampon. The tampon fixture 10 is installed on the tampon production line and can move back and forth between various stations on the production line.

[0027] The number of vacuum generators 20 corresponds to the number of cylindrical holes, and each vacuum generator 20 is positioned below the bottom opening of each cylindrical hole.

[0028] The clamping plate assembly 30 includes a fixed plate 31, a movable plate 32, and a clamping cylinder 33. The fixed plate 31 and the movable plate 32 are positioned above the opening at the top of the cylindrical hole, respectively, on both sides of the opening. The clamping cylinder 33 is located at one end of the cotton swab fixture. The outer end of the piston rod on the clamping cylinder 33 is connected to the movable plate 32, enabling the movable plate 32 to move closer to or away from the fixed plate 31. When the movable plate 32 moves closer to the fixed plate 31, the movable plate 32 contacts and clamps the fixed plate 31, covering the opening at the top of the cylindrical hole; when the movable plate 32 moves away from the fixed plate 31, the gap between the movable plate 32 and the fixed plate 31 allows the opening at the top of the cylindrical hole to be exposed.

[0029] The working process of this tampon de-wrapping device is as follows:

[0030] The tampons, with their outer film removed, are conveyed to the tampon removal station along with the tampon fixture. Then, the vacuum generator 20 is activated to suction the tail of the tampon, drawing out the long tampon thread wrapped around it. Alternatively, if the long tampon thread is deeply embedded in the tampon and cannot be completely removed, the clamping cylinder 33 is activated, and the moving plate 32 moves closer to the fixed plate 31, clamping the remaining thread. Then, as the tampon moves upwards, the thread is pulled out. Figure 9 As shown.

[0031] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model are included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
