Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of insulation board production technology, specifically an insulation cotton feeding mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] As an important building energy-saving material, the thermal insulation performance of insulation boards mainly depends on the structural design and arrangement of the middle layer of insulation cotton. In existing technologies, insulation boards typically adopt a multi-layer composite structure. The middle layer of insulation cotton generally uses thermal insulation materials such as rock wool, glass wool, or aluminum silicate fiber cotton, which is sandwiched or filled between the outer protective board and the inner substrate to form a continuous thermal insulation layer, effectively reducing heat exchange between the inside and outside of the building and improving the overall energy-saving effect.

[0003] Regarding the arrangement process of thermal insulation cotton, existing technologies often involve cutting a whole piece of insulation cotton into several strips of equal length, and then manually arranging them in a staggered manner from front to back, so that each insulation strip forms a stepped structure with progressively protruding layers along the longitudinal direction. This stepped staggered arrangement can create a non-linear heat conduction path within the insulation layer, extending the airflow channel, thereby slowing down heat transfer and improving insulation performance. At the same time, the layered staggered structure can make the stress distribution of the board more uniform, enhancing the overall structural strength and deformation resistance of the insulation board; in addition, similar fiber staggered arrangement can improve the material's resistance to multi-directional stress, improving product reliability.

[0004] However, because the insulation strips are cut to a uniform length, to achieve a stepped, staggered arrangement, operators must measure and adjust the positional differences of each strip and manually place them in position. This process relies heavily on workers' experience and repeated checks, resulting in a high degree of manual intervention. This not only limits production efficiency and increases labor intensity, but also makes the consistency and stability of the arrangement susceptible to human factors, easily leading to positional deviations and uneven density. Consequently, it affects the overall performance and quality standardization control of the insulation board, making it difficult to meet the requirements of large-scale production. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a thermal insulation cotton feeding mechanism to solve the technical problem of high degree of manual intervention.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a thermal insulation cotton feeding mechanism, comprising a receiving platform, a pushing assembly, and a horizontal conveyor belt disposed on the right side of the receiving platform. The receiving platform is used to receive multiple thermal insulation cotton strips arranged sequentially front to back and extending left to right. The pushing assembly includes multiple pushing arms spaced back to front and back, with their right sides corresponding to the left sides of the thermal insulation cotton strips and pushing the thermal insulation cotton strips onto the horizontal conveyor belt, and a first translation device for driving the multiple pushing arms to move back and forth synchronously left and right. The distance between the right sides of the multiple pushing arms and the horizontal conveyor belt increases sequentially from front to back.

[0007] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the pushing assembly also includes a linkage plate fixed to the output end of the first translation device, and multiple pushing arms are installed at intervals on the lower side of the linkage plate.

[0008] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the pusher arm includes a frame-shaped arm installed on the lower side of the linkage plate and a rubber block fixed on the right side of the frame-shaped arm.

[0009] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the pushing assembly also includes a position adjustment device that corresponds to the frame arm and the linkage plate. The position adjustment device includes an adjustment plate, an adjustment stud, and an adjustment nut. The adjustment plate is fixed on the frame arm and slidably connected to the linkage plate from left to right and is provided with an adjustment through hole. The adjustment stud is installed on the linkage plate and extends from left to right and passes through the adjustment through hole. The two adjustment nuts are threadedly connected to the adjustment stud and are respectively used to abut against the front and rear sides of the adjustment plate.

[0010] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the insulation cotton feeding mechanism of this utility model also includes two vertical conveyor belts that are spaced apart front and back and are used to cooperate with the horizontal conveyor belt and drive multiple insulation cotton strips to move synchronously to the right.

The feeding rack is used to receive multiple insulation cotton strips arranged in sequence front and back and extending left and right, and is provided with multiple long through holes extending front and back for the push rods to pass through.

[0012] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the lifting mechanism includes a translation plate installed at the output end of the second translation device and slidably connected to the loading rack, and a plurality of lifting cylinders arranged at intervals on the translation plate.

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown in the figure, an insulation cotton feeding mechanism in this embodiment of the present invention includes a receiving platform 100, a pushing component 200, and a horizontal conveyor belt 300 disposed on the right side of the receiving platform 100. The receiving platform 100 is used to receive multiple insulation cotton strips arranged sequentially back and forth and extending left and right. The pushing component 200 includes multiple pushing arms 210 arranged back and forth at intervals, with their right sides corresponding to the left sides of the insulation cotton strips and pushing the insulation cotton strips onto the horizontal conveyor belt 300, and a first translation device 220 for driving the multiple pushing arms 210 to move back and forth synchronously left and right. The distance between the right sides of the multiple pushing arms 210 and the horizontal conveyor belt 300 increases sequentially from front to back. In fact, after the insulation cotton is cut to a fixed length by an external cutting device, it becomes multiple insulation cotton strips of uniform size. These strips can be transferred one by one to the receiving platform 100 by a robotic arm or conveyor belt, and placed side by side and flat along the front and back direction of the receiving platform 100, forming an initial arrangement of multiple strips extending left and right and closely adjacent front and back. The first translation device 220 can be a motor-driven chain drive, belt drive, gear drive, etc., to drive the multiple push arms 210 to move left and right.

[0031] The specific working principle of the insulation cotton feeding mechanism of this utility model is as follows: After the insulation cotton strips that have been cut to a fixed length are placed one by one on the receiving platform 100, they form an initial arrangement of side-by-side and extending left and right. The first translation device 220 is activated, driving multiple pusher arms 210 to move synchronously to the right. Since the distance between the right side of each pusher arm 210 and the horizontal conveyor belt 300 increases from front to back, the stroke of the pusher arm 210 pushing the corresponding insulation cotton strip to the right also increases accordingly, so that the distance between the foremost pusher arm 210 and the foremost insulation cotton strip is the shortest, and the distance between the last pusher arm 210 and the last insulation cotton strip is the shortest. Therefore, the foremost insulation cotton strip arrives at the horizontal conveyor belt 300 first, followed by the second, third, and so on, until each insulation cotton strip is pushed onto the conveyor belt in sequence, thus automatically forming a staggered, stepped arrangement structure from front to back on the horizontal conveyor belt 300. After the arrangement is completed, the first translation device 220 drives multiple pusher arms 210 to move to the left and reset in preparation for the next pusher operation. The horizontal conveyor belt 300 transports the stepped thermal insulation strips as a whole to the next composite molding process.

[0032] The insulation cotton feeding mechanism of this utility model, through the cooperation of the receiving platform 100, the pushing component 200 and the horizontal conveyor belt 300, realizes the automated forming of the stepped staggered arrangement of insulation cotton strips, eliminating the need for manual measurement and adjustment of the position of each strip, significantly improving production efficiency and arrangement consistency; the mechanical positioning method can ensure the consistency and stability of the misalignment of each insulation cotton strip, effectively avoiding arrangement deviations caused by human factors, and improving the standardization level of product quality; at the same time, it greatly reduces the degree of manual intervention and labor intensity, and can meet the needs of large-scale production of insulation boards.

[0033] Specifically, the pushing component 200 preferably includes a linkage plate 230 fixed at the output end of the first translation device 220, and multiple pushing arms 210 are installed at intervals on the lower side of the linkage plate 230, so that the first translation device 220 drives multiple pushing arms 210 to move left and right synchronously, and reduces the probability of interference between the first translation device 220 and the insulation strip.

[0034] More specifically, the pusher arm 210 includes a frame-shaped arm 211 mounted on the lower side of the linkage plate 230 and a rubber block 212 fixed on the right side of the frame-shaped arm 211. The rubber block 212 is used to directly contact the left end of the insulation cotton strip and apply a pushing force. During the pushing process, the elastic deformation characteristics of the material of the rubber block 212 can absorb the impact load during the pushing process, making the mechanism run more smoothly.

[0035] Furthermore, the pushing assembly 200 preferably includes a position adjustment device 240 that corresponds to the frame arm 211 and the linkage plate 230. The position adjustment device 240 includes an adjustment plate 241, an adjustment stud 242, and an adjustment nut 243. The adjustment plate 241 is fixed on the frame arm 211 and slidably connected to the linkage plate 230 and is provided with an adjustment through hole 244. The adjustment stud 242 is installed on the linkage plate 230 and extends to the left and right and passes through the adjustment through hole 244. The two adjustment nuts 243 are threadedly connected to the adjustment stud 242 and are used to abut against the front and rear sides of the adjustment plate 241 respectively. In practical applications, the axial position of the adjusting nut 243 on the adjusting stud 242 can be changed by rotating the adjusting nut 243, which can drive the adjusting plate 241 to move left and right relative to the linkage plate 230. This allows the left and right positions of each rubber block 212 to be adjusted independently within a certain range, enabling the mechanism to adapt to the different requirements of different specifications of insulation boards for the stair arrangement spacing and misalignment within a certain range. This achieves multiple uses for one machine and improves production flexibility and process adaptability.

[0036] It is worth mentioning that the thermal insulation cotton feeding mechanism of this utility model preferably includes two vertical conveyor belts 400 that are spaced apart front and back and are used to cooperate with the horizontal conveyor belt 300 and drive multiple thermal insulation cotton strips to move to the right synchronously. In fact, the two vertical conveyor belts 400 rotate in opposite directions and their conveying direction and speed are consistent with those of the horizontal conveyor belt 300. The front and rear vertical conveyor belts 400 and the horizontal conveyor belt 300 form a three-sided clamping conveying system. During operation, the distance between the two vertical conveyor belts 400 is slightly less than the overall width of the multiple insulation strips. When the insulation strips enter the conveying area, they are elastically compressed and deformed by the pressure of the front and rear vertical conveyor belts 400, creating a clamping force on the insulation strips. Furthermore, the sides of the vertical conveyor belts 400 generate frictional resistance against the insulation strips, effectively preventing them from slipping, tilting, or misaligning due to inertia or vibration during conveying. The clamping force maintains the stepped arrangement of the insulation strips, preventing positional deviation and improving production continuity and product quality stability.

[0037] It should be noted that the insulation cotton feeding mechanism of this utility model preferably also includes a feeding assembly 500. The feeding assembly includes a feeding conveyor belt 510 for conveying the insulation cotton strips one by one from front to back, a feeding rack 520 disposed between the feeding conveyor belt 510 and the receiving platform 100, multiple push rods 530 spaced laterally for pushing the rear side of the insulation cotton strips, a lifting device 540 for driving the multiple push rods 530 to move up and down, and a second translation device 550 for driving the lifting device 540 to move back and forth. The feeding rack 520 is used to receive multiple insulation cotton strips arranged sequentially front to back and extending laterally, and is provided with multiple elongated through holes 521 extending front to back for the push rods 530 to pass through. In practice, the second translation device 550 can be a motor-driven chain drive, belt drive, gear drive, etc., to drive the lifting device 540 to move back and forth.

[0038] In practical applications, the insulation strips, after being cut to a fixed length externally, are conveyed one by one to the feeding rack 520 by the feeding conveyor belt 510. When the number of insulation strips entering the feeding rack 520 reaches a set number (which can be determined manually or automatically by a sensor in conjunction with the control component), the lifting device 540 drives the push rod 530 to move upward and extend out of the long strip through hole 521. Subsequently, the second translation device 550 drives the push rod 530 to move forward. The push rod 530 contacts the insulation strip from the rear and pushes it into the receiving table 100 as a whole. After the feeding is completed, the lifting device 540 drives the push rod 530 to move downward and retract and move back to its original position, entering the next working cycle. The feeding component 500 adopts an intermittent feeding mechanism of "accumulating one strip at a time - synchronously pushing - transferring as a whole". Multiple push rods 530, which are set at intervals on the left and right, act synchronously on the rear side of the insulation strips, pushing multiple insulation strips together onto the receiving table 100.

[0039] Specifically, the lifting mechanism preferably includes a translation plate 541 installed at the output end of the second translation device 550 and slidably connected to the loading rack 520, and a plurality of lifting cylinders 542 spaced apart on the translation plate 541. Each lifting cylinder 542 is used to drive two adjacent push rods 530 to move up and down. The translation plate 541 serves as a support platform for the lifting cylinders 542, and under the drive of the second translation device 550, it drives all the push rods 530 to move synchronously back and forth. The piston rod of each lifting cylinder 542 is simultaneously connected to two adjacent push rods 530, realizing synchronous lifting drive of "one cylinder, two rods".

[0040] Furthermore, the feeding assembly 500 preferably includes multiple push rods 560 spaced apart on the left and right for pushing the rear side of the insulation strips, and a feeding device 570 for driving the multiple push rods 560 to move synchronously back and forth. In practice, the feeding device 570 can be a cylinder drive device, an electric push rod 530, etc., capable of driving the push rods 560 to move back and forth. In practical applications, when the feeding conveyor belt 510 transfers the insulation strips one by one to the unpowered feeding rack 520, the kinetic energy is interrupted at the junction, and the strips are prone to stagnation and accumulation due to static friction and their own inertia. At this time, the feeding device 570 drives the push rods 560 forward, actively pushing the entire row of insulation strips into the feeding rack 520 from the rear, forming a relay-type conveying, compensating for the lack of power in the feeding rack 520, and ensuring the forward movement of the strips. This structure, through active pushing, effectively eliminates the conveying interruption during the feeding process, fundamentally preventing the blockage problem of the strips at the junction, and ensuring the continuity and stability of the supply.
