Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The application relates to the technical field of spring cushion manufacturing, in particular to a device for manufacturing a pocket spring bed net and a method for manufacturing the pocket spring bed.


BACKGROUND

An independent pocket spring bed net is used to make a high-grade mattress. Each independent pocket is formed by covering each independent spring which is pressed with folded non-woven fabric and then conducting welding. The independent pockets are connected, arranged, and then glued together to form a bed net. Generally, the bed net is covered with a sponge layer, so that the spring pockets can be stressed evenly, which makes it more comfortable to use. Each spring body works independently, plays a supporting role independently, and can expand and contract independently, so that when one of two people lying on a bed turns over or leaves, the other person will not be affected at all, thus ensuring a sound sleep.


During production of an independent pocket spring bed net, an existing production process of a spring core of a mattress is that individual springs are compressed and pocket by equipment, packaged and welded to form bagged spring strings, and then the pocket spring strings are arranged and glued into an integral spring core by a gluing machine.


A traditional independent pocket spring string has great flexibility in its length direction, and a manufactured spring mattress has a large stretch stroke or compression stroke, which leads to an unstable size. Therefore, during manufacturing, it is often necessary to add a steel wire frame or a sponge frame around a mattress to fix the size of the mattress. Because the added steel wire frame cannot be compressed or the sponge frame can hardly be compressed, the mattress cannot be rolled. In the case of a sponge frame, when the mattress is abandoned, sponge degradation and recycle will be a problem.


The content in the background art is only the technology known to the discloser, and does not represent the prior art in this field.

The sheet-like flexible materials 101 are bonded between the pocket spring strings 301, and the sheet-like flexible materials 101 are mainly used to control the stretching or squeezing size of the pocket spring strings in the length direction, so as to avoid the size change of a single spring string.



FIG. 3 shows a perspective view of a device for manufacturing a pocket spring bed net according to an exemplary embodiment of the application.


As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, according to the embodiment of the application, the supply mechanism 100 comprises a feeding component and a cutting component 150.

In order to prevent the material roll from swinging when moving, the stoppers are arranged at two ends of the material roll, the roll-shaped flexible materials are placed in the stoppers, and the roll-shaped flexible materials can move under the action of the stoppers.


The feeding mechanism conveys the roll-shaped flexible materials to the cutting component 150 to be cut into identical sheet-like flexible materials 101. The roll-shaped flexible materials can be cloth, plastic, sponge, soft rubber sheets, etc. When being turned over and pushed, the sheet-like flexible materials 101 make contact with and adhere to the sides of the pocket spring strings 301, and are continued to be pushed towards a bed net combination mechanism 500, so that the pocket spring strings 301 sprayed with glue and bonded with the sheet-like flexible materials 101 are mutually bonded to form the pocket spring bed net 600, which is conveyed under the action of the bed net combination mechanism 500.


According to the embodiment of the application, the cutting component 150 comprises a clamping groove 1513, a cutter 1510, two positioning blocks 1515 and a guide rail.


The clamping groove 1513 is used for compressing the flexible materials. The cutter 1510 rotates at a high speed electronically or pneumatically. The cutter 1510 is movably arranged on the guide rail and able to move along the guide rail in the clamping groove 1513 to cut flexible materials obtained after releasing the roll-shaped flexible materials into the sheet-like flexible materials 101.


The clamping groove 1513 serves as a groove allowing the cutter 1510 to move therein, which facilitates cutting. In addition, if the turning plate component 120 can be turned up to fix the sheet-like flexible materials 101, the turning plate component can replace the two positioning blocks 1515 to clamp the sheet-like flexible materials 101, and the clamping groove 1513 cooperates with the turning plate component 120 to clamp the flexible materials released by the roll.


The cutting component 150 can be cut by a rotary blade, a non-rotary blade or a hot melt process, and the cutting method is not specifically limited in this application.


A gap exists between the two positioning blocks 1515 and the clamping groove 1513, which can be selectively moved to adjust the gap. Specifically, a slide rail can be installed on a frame 700, and the two positioning blocks 1515 can move on the slide rail.

The sheet-like flexible materials 101 are transferred to the pushing and grasping component 210 by turning down the turning plate component 120.



FIGS. 4-5 are schematic diagrams of a suction plate structure of a turning plate component and a pushing and grasping component of a device for manufacturing a pocket spring bed net according to an exemplary embodiment of the application.


As shown in FIGS. 4-5, any one of the turning plate component 120 and the pushing and grasping component 210 can be provided with a suction plate, and a suction hole of the suction plate is evacuated to form negative pressure, so as to adsorb the sheet-like flexible materials 101. The turning plate component 120 comprises at least one pair of suction plates 1202 that can move relatively, and the suction plates 1202 have suction holes.


Specifically, at least two suction plates 1202 are provided, and the suction plates at two ends can move. After the sheet-like flexible materials are adsorbed on the suction plates, the suction plates at the two ends move reversely to flatten the sheet-like flexible materials.


According to the embodiment of the application, the suction plate 1202 comprises a sliding rod 12023, a first suction cup 12021 and two second suction cups 12022.


The first suction cup 12021 is fixedly arranged on the suction plate 1202, and the two second suction cups 12022 are arranged on the sliding rod 12023, are respectively arranged on two sides of the first suction cup 12021, and can slide on the sliding rod 12023 in opposite directions.

Each suction plate 1202 is provided with a sponge layer or a soft rubber layer on a working surface sucking the sheet-like flexible materials 101 to increase sucking friction of the working surface, thus improving the adsorption effect of the working surface. When the device for manufacturing a pocket spring bed net 10 is in operation, after the suction plate 1202 adsorbs the sheet-like flexible materials 101, the two second suction cups 12022 move in opposite directions, so that the sheet-like flexible materials 101 are stretched to two sides and straightened, thus achieving the purpose of flattening the flexible materials.


The turning plate component 120 and/or the pushing and grasping component 210 are connected with a vacuum component through a pipeline, and the vacuum component provides suction for the turning plate component 120 and/or the pushing and grasping component 210.


The turning plate component 120 and/or the pushing component 210 are provided with suction holes for sucking the sheet-like flexible materials 101.


The suction holes in the suction plate 1202 communicate with a vacuum generator of a vacuum component, and the vacuum generator generates high-pressure air circulation, so that the suction holes form negative pressure and adsorb the sheet-like flexible materials 101. One vacuum generator can be connected with several suction holes, and one turning plate component 120 or pushing and grasping component 210 is provided with several vacuum generators.


In another embodiment, the suction plate 1202 can be a suction cup or a suction hole connected by a pipeline. The suction hole can reduce a contact gap between the sheet-like flexible materials 101 and the suction plate 1202 when sucking the sheet-like flexible materials 101, so that the sheet-like flexible materials 101 are flatter and the adsorption effect is better. The suction plates 1202 all have an adsorption function, and their structures are interchangeable, as long as identical functions can be realized.

Referring to the turning component in FIG. 1 and the two implementations in FIGS. 7-8, it can be seen that the roll-shaped flexible materials naturally droop under the action of gravity when being cut, the drooping flexible materials pass through the gap between the clamping groove 1513 and two positioning blocks 1515 and make contact with the turning plate component 120, and the two positioning blocks 1515 move towards the clamping groove 1513 to clamp the drooping flexible materials. The suction plate 1202 installed on the turning plate component 120 adsorbs the flexible materials on the turning plate component 120. The cutter 1510 moves in a positioning groove between the two positioning blocks 1515 to cut the cloth. The two positioning blocks 1515 are away from the clamping groove 1513 to loosen the cut drooping flexible materials (i.e., the sheet-like flexible materials 101). The two second suction cups 12022 can move on the sliding rod 12023 under the action of transmission parts (cylinders, screw rods and cranks). The flexible materials are stretched flat, and two rotary clamping cylinders are installed on a mounting plate of the pushing mechanism 200. When the sheet-like flexible materials 101 are adsorbed on the turning plate component 120, the two rotary clamping cylinders clamp and push the sheet-like flexible materials 101 after the sheet-like flexible materials make contact with the mounting plate.


The turning plate component 120 rotates to transfer the sheet-like flexible materials 101 to the pushing and grasping component 210, and the pushing and grasping component 210 adsorbs the sheet-like flexible materials 101 and moves to the spring string conveying mechanism 300, so that the spring strings and the sheet-like flexible materials 101 are bonded to form the bed net.

The bed net combination mechanism 500 may comprise two clamping plates or a conveyor belt. In this application, it is preferred that the upper pressing plate 510 comprises a first conveyor belt 530, and the lower platform 520 comprises a second conveyor belt 540.


The bed net combination mechanism 500 transports the spring strings to a second gap between the conveyor belts, and the spring strings are arranged and sprayed with glue to be bonded. The pushing and grasping component 210 fixes (clamps or adsorbs) the sheet-like flexible materials 101 and pushes the sheet-like flexible materials to be in contact with each other and bonded with the spring strings sprayed with glue, and the spring strings are continued to be pushed to be bonded with the bed net 600 as a whole.
