Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to metal foil processing technology, and in particular to a metal foil splicing mechanism for achieving rapid and precise splicing of two metal foil segments. Background Technology

[0002] In the production and processing of metal foil, it is often necessary to splice two sections of metal foil strip to ensure the continuity of the processing flow. Currently, the industry mostly uses manual splicing or simple equipment to assist in splicing.

[0003] When manually splicing metal foil, operators must first align the joints of the two foil sections and then apply tape to both sides to secure them. This method is not only extremely inefficient and unsuitable for the pace requirements of automated production lines, but it is also prone to misalignment at the splice due to manual alignment errors, affecting the accuracy of subsequent processing. Furthermore, uneven application of tape results in poor adhesion between the tape and the foil, making it prone to tape detachment and lifting after splicing, which can lead to breakage of the foil during subsequent transport or processing.

[0004] Existing simple splicing equipment can only achieve single-sided adhesive application, requiring a secondary operation to complete double-sided fixation. This process is cumbersome and lacks effective limiting structures, making it easy for the metal foil strip to shift during transport, further reducing splicing accuracy. In addition, these devices are mostly fixed installations, unable to be flexibly moved according to production site requirements, resulting in poor applicability.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a metal foil splicing mechanism that is highly automated, has high splicing accuracy, provides a strong connection, and is easy to move, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems existing in the current technology. Utility Model Content

[0006] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention aims to provide a metal foil splicing mechanism.

[0007] To achieve the above and other related objectives, the technical solution provided by this utility model is: a metal foil splicing mechanism, comprising:

[0008] frame;

[0009] A fixed conveyor line, which is horizontally fixed to the frame;

[0010] A flip-over conveyor line is vertically hinged to the frame and located above and to the left of the fixed conveyor line.

[0011] A tape holder is fixed on the frame and located on the right side of the fixed conveyor line. A tape roll is rotated on the tape holder, and the free end of the tape roll is pulled by the fixed conveyor line.

[0012] Tape rack two, which is fixed on the frame and located on the left side of the flipping conveyor line, and tape roll two is rotated on tape rack two, the free end of tape roll two is pulled by the flipping conveyor line;

[0013] A flipping drive unit is fixed on the frame and is used to drive the flipping conveyor line to flip toward the fixed conveyor line so as to press the adhesive side of the second tape roll onto the front side of the connection between the two metal foil sections, while pressing the back side of the connection between the two metal foil sections onto the adhesive side of the first tape roll.

[0014] The preferred technical solution is as follows: both the fixed conveyor line and the flipping conveyor line include a conveyor belt, a drive roller and a driven roller. The drive roller and the driven roller are respectively rotatably disposed at both ends of the conveyor line. The conveyor belt is wound between the drive roller and the driven roller, and the drive roller is driven by an external power source to drive the conveyor belt to rotate.

[0015] A preferred technical solution is as follows: it further includes a limiting plate, which is fixed on the frame and located on the upper side of the fixed conveyor line. The limiting plate and the vertical flip conveyor line form a channel for the metal foil strip to pass through.

[0016] The preferred technical solution is as follows: the flipping drive unit consists of a motor, a driving synchronous pulley, a driven synchronous pulley, and a synchronous belt; the flipping conveyor line is hinged to the frame via a rotating shaft; the motor is fixed on the frame; the driving synchronous pulley is fixed on the output shaft of the motor; the driven synchronous pulley is fixed on the rotating shaft; and the synchronous belt is wound around the driving synchronous pulley and the driven synchronous pulley.

[0017] A preferred technical solution is that the bottom side of the frame is equipped with casters.

[0018] A preferred technical solution is as follows: both the first tape holder and the second tape holder are provided with tape tension rollers. The tape tension rollers are rotated to the inner side of the corresponding tape holders, and the outer circumferential surface of the tape tension rollers abuts against the outer side of the tape released from the corresponding tape roll, so as to adjust the tension of the tape.

[0019] Due to the application of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0020] With a high degree of automation, the flipping drive unit drives the flipping conveyor line to flip, which can simultaneously complete the alignment of two metal foils and the application of adhesive on the front and back sides, eliminating the need for secondary manual operation, greatly improving the splicing efficiency, and adapting to the cycle time of automated production lines.

[0021] The continuation accuracy is high. The channel formed by the limiting plate and the flipping conveyor can accurately limit the metal foil strip and avoid deviation during the conveying process. At the same time, the relative position of the flipping conveyor and the fixed conveyor is fixed, ensuring that the two metal foil joints are accurately aligned and reducing misalignment errors.

[0022] The connection is firm and reliable. Two sections of tape are applied to the front and back of the metal foil connection, and the pressing action of the flipping conveyor line makes the tape and metal foil adhere tightly, effectively preventing the tape from falling off or lifting, and improving the tensile strength of the joint.

[0023] It is highly flexible, with casters on the bottom of the frame allowing the mechanism to be moved flexibly according to the needs of the production site, adapting to different installation positions and processing scenarios. Attached Figure Description

[0029] Based on the overall technical concept of this utility model, a metal foil splicing mechanism is provided, which is suitable for metal foil production and processing scenarios. It can realize the rapid and accurate splicing of two metal foil strips, ensure the continuity of the processing flow, adapt to the cycle requirements of automated production lines, and effectively solve the problems of low efficiency, poor accuracy, and weak connection that exist in manual splicing or splicing with simple equipment.

[0030] The metal foil splicing mechanism includes:

[0031] Frame 1 provides the installation support base for the entire mechanism, and is equipped with casters 2 on the bottom side for easy and flexible movement according to the needs of the production site, adapting to different installation positions and processing scenarios.

[0032] The conveyor line assembly includes a fixed conveyor line 3 and a tilting conveyor line 4, both of which consist of a conveyor belt, a drive roller, and a driven roller. The fixed conveyor line 3 is horizontally fixed to the frame 1, while the tilting conveyor line 4 is vertically hinged to the frame 1 via a pivot and located to the upper left of the fixed conveyor line 3. The drive roller and the driven roller are rotatably mounted at both ends of the conveyor line, and the conveyor belt is wound between them. The drive roller is driven by an external power source, which drives the conveyor belt to transport the metal foil strip.

[0033] The tape holder assembly comprises tape holder 5 and tape holder 6, both fixed to the frame 1. Tape holder 5 is located to the right of the fixed conveyor line 3, on which tape roll 7 is rotatably mounted, with its free end pulled by the fixed conveyor line 3. Tape holder 6 is located to the left of the flipping conveyor line 4, on which tape roll 8 is rotatably mounted, with its free end pulled by the flipping conveyor line 4. Tape tension rollers (not shown) are rotatably mounted inside both tape holders. The outer circumference of the tension rollers abuts against the outer side of the tape released from the corresponding tape roll, used to adjust the tape tension and ensure effective tape application.

[0034] The flipping drive unit (not shown) consists of a motor, a driving synchronous pulley, a driven synchronous pulley, and a synchronous belt. The motor is fixed on the frame 1, the driving synchronous pulley is mounted on the motor output shaft, the driven synchronous pulley is fixed on the rotating shaft of the flipping conveyor line, and the synchronous belt is wound between the two synchronous pulleys to provide power for the flipping action of the flipping conveyor line 4.

[0035] Limiting structure; the limiting plate 9 is fixed on the frame 1 and located on the upper side of the fixed conveyor line 3. Together with the vertical flipping conveyor line 4, it forms a channel for the metal foil strip to pass through, so as to achieve precise limiting during the conveying process of the strip and avoid deviation.

[0036] Working process: An external power source drives the conveyor belts of the fixed conveyor line 3 and the flipping conveyor line 4 to operate, traction and stable transport of two sections of tape to the position where they are to be bonded. The two sections of metal foil to be joined are respectively threaded into the channel formed by the limiting plate 9 and the flipping conveyor line 4 and pre-adheded onto tape one. At the same time, the motor of the flipping drive unit starts, driving the shaft of the flipping conveyor line to rotate through the active synchronous pulley, synchronous belt and driven synchronous pulley, so that the flipping conveyor line 4 flips towards the fixed conveyor line 3. During the flipping process, the adhesive side of tape roll two will press against the front of the joint of the two metal foil sections, and at the same time the back of the joint of the two metal foil sections will press against the adhesive side of tape roll one, simultaneously completing the alignment of the joint and the bonding of the front and back sides, realizing the firm continuation of the two metal foil sections.

[0037] Therefore, this utility model has the following advantages:

[0038] Highly automated, requiring no secondary manual operation, it simultaneously completes alignment and double-sided adhesive application, significantly improving splicing efficiency and adapting to the cycle time requirements of automated production lines. Excellent splicing accuracy is ensured by a limiting structure that effectively prevents tape conveyor deviation, and the fixed relative position of the conveyor line guarantees precise joint alignment and reduces misalignment errors. The connection is robust and reliable; the double-sided adhesive design, combined with the pressing action of the flipping conveyor line, ensures a tight bond between the tape and the metal foil, effectively preventing tape detachment and lifting, and improving the tensile strength of the splice. Highly flexible, the casters on the bottom of the frame facilitate flexible movement of the mechanism, adapting to the installation and usage needs of different production sites.
