Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of kitchen knife production equipment, specifically relating to a semi-automatic nailing machine. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of kitchen knives, rivets are used to securely connect the handle and the blade. Currently, this process is mainly accomplished through traditional manual operation, or with the assistance of simple tooling. In practice, the operator must precisely align the connecting holes on the handle and the blade, then insert the rivet into the hole, and finally use pressure and hammering to embed the rivet.

[0003] Long-term practice has revealed that the existing processing methods rely entirely on the operator's experience, resulting in poor consistency of the products produced. For example, rivets may become loose, crooked, or protrude. At the same time, the efficiency of accurately placing rivets into holes is low, which greatly affects production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the technical problems of poor product consistency and low nailing efficiency after nailing handles, this utility model proposes a semi-automatic nailing handle machine, including a frame, on which a first guide rail and a second guide rail are arranged in parallel. A first push plate is slidably connected to the first guide rail, and a second push plate is slidably connected to the second guide rail. A nail shank mechanism is installed on one side of the frame along the travel direction of the first guide rail and the second guide rail. In some embodiments, the nail handle mechanism is located above the first push plate and the second push plate; Positioning molds are installed on both the first and second push plates.

[0005] Furthermore, the nail handle mechanism includes a cylinder mounted on the frame, with one end of a piston rod connected directly below the cylinder, and a nail head mounted directly below the other end of the piston.

[0006] Furthermore, the semi-automatic nail handle machine also includes a feeding mechanism, which includes a feeding tray, one end of which is connected to a feeding pipe, and the end of the feeding pipe is provided with a feeding clamp, which is mounted on the piston rod.

[0007] Furthermore, the first guide rail includes at least two rails arranged parallel to each other on the same horizontal plane; the second guide rail includes at least two rails arranged parallel to each other on the same horizontal plane.

[0008] Furthermore, the positioning mold is provided with a positioning groove, and an auxiliary positioning platform is provided on one side of the positioning groove and mounted on the first push plate or the second push plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the semi-automatic nailing machine also includes a motion mechanism, which includes a first drive motor and a second drive motor. The first drive motor is connected to the first push plate, and the second drive motor is connected to the second push plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the semi-automatic nail handle machine is equipped with a first sensor, which is installed on the side of the frame where the nail handle mechanism is located; the first sensor is used to sense whether the first push plate or the second push plate is located below the nail handle mechanism.

[0011] Furthermore, the semi-automatic nail handle machine is equipped with a second sensor, which is installed on the other side of the frame, corresponding to the side of the frame where the nail handle mechanism is located; the second sensor is used to sense whether the first push plate or the second push plate is located on the other side of the frame.

[0012] Beneficial effects: The semi-automatic nailing machine proposed in this utility model, when nailing, simultaneously places the tool to be processed on the second push plate while the first push plate carries the tool to be processed along the first guide rail to the nailing mechanism for nailing. After the tool on the first push plate has finished processing, the first push plate is pushed away from the nailing mechanism, and at the same time the second push plate carrying the tool to be processed is pushed along the second guide rail to the nailing mechanism for nailing. Through the cyclical alternation of the first and second push plates, the nailing efficiency can be effectively improved. The positioning mold can improve the stability of the stacked handle and the tool holder, and avoid misalignment of the handle and the tool holder during nailing. Attached Figure Description

[0015] To fully and clearly illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, the following description will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments described below are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0016] It should be noted that in the description of the embodiments of this application, terms such as "first", "second", "upper", "lower", "one end", and "the other end" are only used to distinguish similar components or describe the positional relationship in a specific embodiment, and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implying the number of indicated technical features; those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0017] Example 1 To solve existing technical problems, such as Figure 1-3 As shown in the figure, this application embodiment proposes a semi-automatic nail handle machine, including a frame 1, on which a first guide rail 11 and a second guide rail 12 are arranged in parallel, and the first guide rail 11 and the second guide rail 12 travel in the same direction. A first push plate 41 is slidably connected to the first guide rail 11, so that the first push plate 41 can move along the travel direction of the first guide rail 11; a second push plate 42 is slidably connected to the second guide rail 12, so that the second push plate 42 can move along the travel direction of the second guide rail 12. A nail handle mechanism 3 is installed on one side of the frame 1 along the arrangement direction of the first guide rail 11 and the second guide rail 12. In some application scenarios, the nail handle mechanism 3 is located above the first push plate 41 and the second push plate 42. When nailing, the nail handle mechanism 3 releases pressure downward from directly above to nail the nail.

[0018] Positioning mold 43 is installed on the first push plate 41 and the second push plate 42. Positioning mold 43 is used to stack the knife handle and the knife handles on both sides of the knife handle. When the first push plate 41 and the second push plate 42 move along the first guide rail 11 and the second guide rail 12 respectively to the bottom of the nail handle mechanism 3, the nail can be pushed into the stacked knife handle and handle in the positioning mold 43 through the nail handle mechanism 3, so that the knife handle and handle on both sides are firmly connected.

[0019] like Figure 3As shown, in some application scenarios, the first push plate 41 is higher than the second push plate 42. The two do not affect each other when moving along the first guide rail 11 and the second guide rail 12. Therefore, when the first push plate 41 moves to the area below the nail shank mechanism 3 for processing, the second push plate 42 can be moved to the operating position to remove the tool that has completed the nail shank and place the tool handle and handle to be processed. Conversely, when the second push plate 42 moves to the area below the nail shank mechanism 3 for processing, the first push plate 41 can be moved to the operating position. Through the cyclical operation of the first push plate 41 and the second push plate 42, when one push plate is processing the nail shank, the tool handle and handle can be stacked on the other push plate simultaneously, thus significantly improving the efficiency of the nail shank processing.

[0020] In this embodiment, the nail handle mechanism 3 includes a cylinder 31 mounted on the frame 1. The cylinder 31 provides stable output pressure to the nail handle. One end of a piston rod 32 is connected directly below the cylinder 31, and a nail head 33 is mounted on the other end of the piston rod 32. The cylinder 31 is electrically connected to a solenoid valve 63. In some application scenarios, the shape of the nail head 33 can match the shape of the nail pellet or the opening on the handle, facilitating the stable driving of the nail pellet without damaging the structure of the handle. The solenoid valve 63 can control the operation of the cylinder 31.

[0021] In this embodiment, the semi-automatic nail handle machine further includes a feeding mechanism 2, which includes a feeding tray 21. One end of the feeding tray 21 is connected to a feeding pipe 22, and the end of the feeding pipe 22 is provided with a feeding clamp 23. The feeding clamp 23 is mounted on the piston rod 32. The feeding tray 21 is used to hold the nails. During operation, the nails are conveyed to the feeding clamp 23 along the feeding pipe 22. The feeding clamp 23 can adjust the position and shape of the nails to a suitable state for nailing. When the piston rod 32 descends, the feeding clamp 23 can accurately place the nails into the holes of the knife handle and the knife handle.

[0022] In some application scenarios, the feed pipe 22 can be made of PVC hose or corrugated pipe to accommodate the operation of the piston rod 32.

[0023] In this embodiment, the first guide rail includes at least two parallel tracks arranged on the same horizontal plane; the second guide rail includes at least two parallel tracks arranged on the same horizontal plane. When the nail handle is being processed, the nail handle mechanism 3 presses down to directly apply pressure to the first push plate 41 and the second push plate 42, and the two parallel tracks can provide stable support for the slidingly connected first push plate 41 and second push plate 42.

[0024] In this embodiment, the positioning mold 43 is provided with a positioning groove 432, and an auxiliary positioning platform 431 is provided on one side of the positioning groove 432 and installed on the first push plate 41 and the second push plate 42. In some application scenarios, the positioning groove 432 can be in the shape of a knife handle. The knife handle-shaped positioning groove 432 can stack the knife handle and the knife handle without shaking, which is beneficial to maintaining stability when nailing the handle. At the same time, by setting an auxiliary positioning platform 431 in the positioning groove 432, the auxiliary positioning platform 431 can support the knife body and make it stable, preventing the knife body from shaking and causing the stacked knife handle and knife handle to become misaligned.

[0025] To further improve the efficiency of nail handles, in this embodiment, the semi-automatic nail handle machine also includes a motion mechanism, which includes a first drive motor 51 and a second drive motor 52. The first drive motor 51 is connected to the first push plate 41, and the second drive motor 52 is connected to the second push plate 42.

[0026] To ensure that the motion mechanism can accurately push the first push plate 41 and the second push plate 42 to the designated position, such as Figure 2-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the semi-automatic nail handle machine is provided with a first sensor, which is installed on the side of the frame where the nail handle mechanism is set; the first sensor (61) is used to sense whether the first push plate (41) or the second push plate (42) is located below the nail handle mechanism (3).

[0027] In some application scenarios, when the first drive motor 51 pushes the first push plate 41 along the first guide rail 11 to the bottom of the nail head 33, the first sensor 61 is triggered to sense and send a signal, the first drive motor 51 stops running, and at the same time the cylinder 31 is started to push the piston rod 32 to work the nail handle.

[0028] In this embodiment, the semi-automatic nail handle machine is provided with a second sensor (62), which is installed on the other side of the frame (1). The other side of the frame (1) corresponds to the side of the frame (1) where the nail handle mechanism (3) is set.

[0029] In some application scenarios, the other side of the frame 1 is an operating position for placing the knife handle and the knife shank in the positioning mold 43. When the nail shank is completed, the first drive motor 51 pushes the first push plate 41 to the other side of the frame, so as to remove the knife with the completed nail shank and reposition the knife to be nailed.

[0030] In some application scenarios, the semi-automatic nailing machine also includes a control unit, which is used to receive the sensing signals from the first sensor 61 and the second sensor 62, and can control the operation of the first drive motor 51, the second drive motor 52 and the cylinder 31.

[0031] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions proposed in the embodiments of this application, the working principle of a semi-automatic nailing machine described above and its accompanying drawings will be fully and clearly described below.

[0032] It should be understood that before a semi-automatic nailing machine is started, the first push plate 41 and the second push plate 42 can be in a reset state, that is, in the operating position.

[0033] To begin nailing the handle, the operator sequentially places the handle and blade into the handle-shaped positioning groove 432 of the positioning mold 43 on the first push plate 41, and places the blade on the auxiliary positioning platform 431. After ensuring proper placement, the control unit controls the first drive motor 51 to push the first push plate 41 down along the first guide rail 11 to the nail handle mechanism 3. At this time, the first sensor 61 sends a signal, and after receiving the signal, the control unit controls the first drive motor 51 to stop and starts the cylinder 31 to push the piston rod 32. The nail pellets are then accurately placed into the handle hole from the feeding tray 21 along the feeding tube 22 and after being adjusted in position by the feeding clamp. The nail head 33 is then pushed into the hole by the piston rod 32, completing the nail handle process.

[0034] During the above operation, the operator can simultaneously place the tool to be nailed into the tool holder-type positioning groove 432 of the positioning mold 43 on the second push plate 42. After the tool holder and handle on the first push plate 41 have completed the nailing work, the control unit controls the first drive motor 51 to push the first push plate 41 to the operating position. At the same time, the control unit controls the second drive motor 52 to push the second push plate 42 under the nail holder mechanism 3 to nail the tool. In this way, the operator can repeat the above steps after removing the tool that has completed nailing the tool from the first push plate 41, thus achieving a cyclical alternation and improving the nailing efficiency.
