Description

Welding machine for synthetic resins

[0001] The present invention relates to a welding machine for synthetic resins, and more specifically, to a welding machine for synthetic resins that enables welding using hot air and ultrasonic vibration energy, while allowing smooth entry and exit of fabric between an upper welding roller made of metal and a lower ultrasonic horn.

[0002] Recently, with the increase in leisure and hobby activities, various functional clothing, coverings, tents, etc. are being widely used.

[0003] Fabrics for various types of clothing, such as these, are usually required to have a basic waterproof function, and are produced using waterproof fabrics that have a waterproof function.

[0004] Accordingly, fabrics that require waterproofing, such as functional clothing, coverings, tents, and other fabrics, are manufactured using the above-mentioned waterproof fabrics so that they faithfully perform their original function while also being waterproof, allowing them to be prepared for rainy weather.

[0005] Accordingly, the waterproof fabrics as described above can be secured by joining them together through welding, and the heat welding method is mainly used as the welding method.

[0006] Meanwhile, hot air, ultrasonic, high frequency, rotation, and vibration welding methods are being applied as heat welding methods.

[0007] Among them, hot air welding is mainly used to bond waterproof tape to the sewing part of fabric. High temperature hot air is applied to the waterproof tape to melt it to a certain degree, and at the same time, the waterproof tape is bonded to the sewing part of the fabric and passed between upper and lower rollers made of rubber.

[0008] However, the hot air welding method described above is one in which high-temperature hot air is discharged over a relatively large area, and although it was possible to melt and bond relatively thin waterproof tapes, there was a serious problem in that when thick fabrics such as tents were overlapped and bonded, the waterproof coating around the bonding surface of the fabrics would burn and peel off due to excessive hot air.

[0009] In particular, in the past, general PE and PVC coating materials were used for waterproof coating on tents, etc., but recently, polymer coatings made of eco-friendly materials are being applied to prevent environmental pollution. However, in the case of hot air as mentioned above, if weak hot air is applied, the decomposition power of the polymer decreases, preventing proper bonding, and if excessive hot air is applied, there was a problem that the coating surface burned.

[0010] Accordingly, in order to solve the above problems, an ultrasonic welding method is applied in which ultrasonic vibration energy is transmitted to the welded material through an ultrasonic horn, causing instantaneous frictional heat to be generated at the joint surface of the welded material between the upper welding roller and the welded material, thereby melting and bonding the synthetic resin and forming a strong molecular bond.

[0011] However, the conventional welding method using a welding roller and an ultrasonic horn as described above has a serious problem in that the welding wheel and the ultrasonic horn are both made of metal, and when a strong fabric enters, the frictional force decreases, causing the fabric to slip, making it difficult to properly enter and exit the fabric, and this makes it difficult to perform a uniform welding operation.

[0012] [Patent Document]

[0013] (Patent Document 1) Republic of Korea Patent No. 10-2088557.

[0014] (Patent Document 2) Republic of Korea Patent No. 10-2405061.

[0015] The present invention was created to solve the above-mentioned problems, and the purpose of the present invention is to provide a synthetic resin welding machine that enables uniform welding work by configuring an entry friction roller made of rubber that rises and falls from the bottom of the worktable to hold the fabric, and at the same time, by imparting frictional force with the entry friction roller during the rotation process, thereby facilitating the entry and discharge of strong fabric.

[0016] In addition, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a synthetic resin welding machine that configures a discharge guide roller and a friction roller made of rubber having frictional force with the discharge guide roller at the rear of the work table, thereby pulling the fabric from the rear during the discharge process to enable smooth discharge.

[0017] As a specific means for achieving the above purpose, a main body is formed with a work table formed with a horn extraction hole and a fabric support bar on one side of the middle portion, and a support arm formed with a horizontal protrusion toward the upper portion of the work table and an upper guide formed at the front to guide the entry of the fabric from the upper portion;

[0018] A platform formed on the above support arm and operated to move up and down by cylinder operation, having a welding roller formed of metal and operating to rotate at the bottom, and an upper guide formed at the front to guide the entry of fabric from the top;

[0021] A rotary driving means formed on the bottom surface of the above worktable, comprising a driving motor and a rotary shaft, the rotary shaft being connected to the ultrasonic generator by a belt pulley to provide rotary force to the ultrasonic generator;

[0022] A lower guide formed at the upper front of the workbench to guide the entering fabric from below;

[0023] An entry guide means that operates by forming and exiting through a hole formed at the bottom of the work table and applying rotational friction to the welding roller to control the entry and exit of the fabric; and

[0024] It is configured to include a discharge guide means formed on the work table and support arm at the rear side of the work table and provides discharge force to the fabric discharged to the rear.

[0025] The above entry guide means is,

[0026] Installation bracket formed to be fixed to the bottom of the workbench;

[0027] First, a pivoting member that is hingedly connected to the lower part of the above-mentioned installation bracket and rotates;

[0028] A cylinder formed vertically on the above installation bracket, and having a cylinder rod connected to the middle of the pivot table to rotate the front of the pivot table up and down;

[0029] A pair of roller mounting bars on both sides, one end of which is connected to both sides of the above-mentioned rotary table, the other end of which protrudes toward the horn extraction hole, and which rotates up and down by the rotational operation of the above-mentioned rotary table;

[0030] An entry friction roller made of rubber and mounted on each of the roller mounting bars; and

[0031] It is configured to include a stroke adjustment bolt that is vertically screwed to the above installation bracket and is supported on the upper part of the rotation table when the rotation table is operated to adjust the rotation angle.

[0032] This can be achieved by configuring the rotational motion of the rotary table by the above cylinder operation so that the entry friction roller protrudes from the upper part of the ultrasonic horn or is drawn in from the lower part.

[0033] As described above, the synthetic resin welding machine of the present invention is configured with an entry friction roller that rotates up and down on both sides of the lower ultrasonic horn, so that when a rigid fabric is entered, smooth entry is possible due to rotational friction between the upper welding roller and the entry friction roller, and thus, an effect of uniform welding work can be obtained.

[0034] In addition, a discharge guide roller and a friction roller are configured at the rear of the work table, so that rotational friction pulling from the rear can be applied to achieve the effect of guiding the smooth discharge of the fabric.

[0140] And, the roller mounting bar (860) has a spring connecting plate (862) corresponding to the spring hook (851) formed in the middle thereof.

[0141] And, the roller mounting bar (860) has a protruding hook (863) that is hooked to the connecting bracket (850) at the upper rear portion thereof to prevent the lower rotation of the roller mounting bar (860).

[0142] In addition, the rotating friction means (840) is configured with a discharge friction roller (870). The discharge friction roller (870) is configured with a rubber material to have frictional force, and is configured to be rotatably installed at the tip of the roller mounting bar (860).

[0143] In addition, the rotating friction means (840) is configured with a tension spring (880) that applies tension so that the front of the roller mounting bar (860) faces downward, and the tension spring (880) is configured to connect the spring hook (851) of the connecting bracket (850) and the spring connecting plate (862) of the roller mounting bar (860).

[0144] Accordingly, the discharge guide means (800) is configured such that the rotary shaft (820) rotates by the operation of the cylinder (830), and when the roller mounting bar (860) of the rotary friction means (840) rotates downward by one-way rotation, the discharge friction roller (870) is brought into close contact with the discharge guide roller (810) and a rotational friction force is applied to the discharge guide roller (810). At this time, the tension spring (880) is configured to apply tension so that the discharge friction roller (870) is brought into close contact with the discharge guide roller (810).

[0145] Hereinafter, the operation of the synthetic resin welding machine of the present invention having the above configuration will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings.

[0146] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 10, the synthetic resin welding machine (1) of the present invention enables smooth welding in the process of welding normally strong fabrics by overlapping them with hot air and ultrasonic waves, and facilitates entry and exit of the fabrics without slipping, while also enabling uniform welding work accordingly.

[0147] To this end, first, the fabric to be entered for welding work is composed of an upper fabric (10) and a lower fabric (20). At this time, the upper fabric (10) is guided to enter through an upper guide (130), and the lower fabric (20) is guided to enter through a lower guide (600).

[0148] Referring to Fig. 11, first, the upper fabric (10) is placed on the fabric support bar (112) and then inserted into the upper fabric entry groove (213) formed in the upper fabric entry plate (134) and supported on one side.

[0149] And the lower fabric (20) is inserted into the lower fabric entry groove (621) formed in the lower fabric entry plate (620) and supported on one side, so that the upper fabric (10) and the lower fabric (20) form a state in which the vertical welding portions overlap.

[0150] In particular, in the present invention, the upper fabric entry plate (134) is controlled to move left and right by the control block (133), and the lower fabric entry plate (620) is controlled to slide left and right from the rail member (610), so that it can be adjusted according to the degree of overlap of the fabric to be welded or the thickness of the welding roller (210) and the ultrasonic horn (430).

[0151] Afterwards, a welding operation for joining the upper and lower fabrics (10) (20) that are introduced as described above is performed. This is done by rotating the heater rod (310) and lowering the welding roller (210) when the synthetic resin welding machine (1) is in operation, rotating the ultrasonic generator (400), and operating the entry guide means (700) and the discharge guide means (800).

[0152] That is, referring to Fig. 12, the upper and lower fabrics (10) (20) are overlapped and introduced between the welding roller (210) and the ultrasonic horn (430) according to the operation described above.

[0153] Accordingly, the upper and lower fabrics (10)(20) are heated by hot air discharged from the hot air nozzle (311) of the heater rod (310).

[0154] Afterwards, the upper and lower fabrics (10)(20) that are introduced are introduced between the welding roller (210) and the ultrasonic horn (430), and at the same time, they are melted and pressurized and welded by frictional heat caused by ultrasonic vibration energy between the welding roller (210) and the ultrasonic horn (430).

[0155] At this time, in the present invention, the supplied upper and lower fabrics (10) (20) can be entered and discharged by the opposite rotational force of the welding roller (210) and the ultrasonic horn (430), so that welding work of the upper and lower fabrics (10) (20) becomes possible.

[0156] Meanwhile, as described above, when the upper and lower fabrics (10)(20) enter and exit between the welding roller (210) and the ultrasonic horn (430), the welding roller (210) and the ultrasonic horn (430) may not enter and exit properly due to a slipping phenomenon when working on a strong fabric due to the nature of the welding roller (210) and the ultrasonic horn (430) being made of metal.

[0157] Accordingly, in the present invention, friction with the lower fabric (20) is applied by the entry guide means (700), and in the entry guide means (700), the front of the rotary table (720) and the roller mounting bar (740) is rotated upward by the operation of the cylinder (730) to cause the entry friction roller (750) to protrude above the horn extraction hole (111).

[0158] At this time, the protruding entry friction roller (750) initially protrudes above the ultrasonic horn (430), but as the welding roller (210) descends, it presses the entry friction roller (750), so that the circumference of the entry friction roller (750) comes into contact with the lower circumference of the welding roller (210) along with the predetermined insertion operation of the cylinder rod (731) of the cylinder (730).

[0159] Accordingly, when the upper and lower fabrics (10)(20) enter, the rubber entry friction roller (750) applies a predetermined amount of pressure to the bottom surface of the lower fabric (20), so that frictional force is applied to the lower fabric (20), enabling stable entry and rearward discharge of the welded upper and lower fabrics (10)(20).

[0160] In addition, in the present invention, smooth discharge is possible when the upper and lower fabrics (10)(20) are discharged to the rear in a welded state as described above, and this is possible by the discharge guide means (800).

[0161] This means that, with reference to Fig. 13, in the discharge guide means (800), the synthetic resin welding machine (1) is installed with a rotating shaft (820) and a rotating friction means (840) by the operation of the cylinder (830) when the synthetic resin welding machine (1) is in operation.

[0162] That is, when the rotating shaft (820) of the rotating friction means (840) rotates, the connecting bracket (850) and the roller mounting bar (860) rotate downward. At this time, the discharge friction roller (870) comes into contact with the upper portion of the discharge guide roller (810), but comes into contact with tension by the operation of the tension spring (880).

[0163] At this time, the discharge guide roller (810) is configured to have the same rotational force as the ultrasonic generator (400) by the rotational driving means (500), so that when the upper and lower fabrics (10) (20) to be welded and discharged enter between the discharge guide roller (810) and the discharge friction roller (870), the upper and lower fabrics (10) (20) are pulled at the same speed as the welding speed and discharged to the rear.

[0164] In addition, in the present invention, when welding and joining the upper and lower fabrics (10) (20) through the ultrasonic horn (430) and the welding roller (210) as described above, excessive heat may be generated in the ultrasonic horn (430) other than the welding operation due to high-temperature frictional heat caused by ultrasonic vibration energy. In this case, in the present invention, predetermined cooling of the ultrasonic horn (430) is possible by the cooling unit (1000).

[0165] This means that, with reference to FIG. 8, the air supplied to the air supply pipe (1010) moves and is distributed to the air distribution pipe (1020) and is discharged to the side of the ultrasonic horn (430) through the air discharge hole (1021)(1021'), thereby enabling cooling of unnecessary heat generated outside the peripheral surface of the ultrasonic horn (430) required for welding.

[0166] As described above, the synthetic resin welding machine of the present invention enables stable entry and exit by applying rotational frictional force through the entry guide means and the exit guide means when welding a strong fabric, thereby enabling uniform welding during the fabric welding operation.

[0167] The present invention's synthetic resin welding machine is configured with an entry friction roller that rotates up and down on both sides of a lower ultrasonic horn, so that when a rigid fabric is entered, smooth entry is possible through rotational friction between the upper welding roller and the entry friction roller, and thus uniform welding work is possible. In addition, a discharge guide roller and a friction roller are configured at the rear of the work table, so that rotational friction pulling from the rear is applied, thereby providing the effect of guiding the fabric to be discharged smoothly.
