The following describes a garment stacker 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.
For convenience of description and understanding, the structure of the machine 1 is specifically described in terms of the up-down, left-right, front-rear directions, i.e., the lateral direction of the machine 1, and the front-rear directions, i.e., the longitudinal direction of the machine 1.
As shown in fig. 1 to 15, the laundry machine 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a frame 100, a folding platform mechanism 200, a laundry transporting mechanism 300, a laundry dragging mechanism 400, a laundry positioning mechanism 500, a hanger separating mechanism 600, a trousers lifting mechanism 700, a laundry folding mechanism 800, and a control unit.
The folding platform mechanism 200, the laundry transporting mechanism 300, the laundry dragging mechanism 400, the laundry positioning mechanism 500, the hanger separating mechanism 600, the trousers lifting mechanism 700 and the laundry folding mechanism 800 are respectively mounted on the machine frame 100. The control units communicate with the folding platform mechanism 200, the laundry transport mechanism 300, the laundry drag mechanism 400, the laundry positioning mechanism 500, the hanger separating mechanism 600, the trousers lifting mechanism 700, and the laundry folding mechanism 800, respectively.
Specifically, the laundry (may be a coat or trousers) to be folded is hung on a clothes hanger (not shown), then the clothes hanger with the laundry is hung on the laundry conveying mechanism 300, after the clothes hanger with the laundry is conveyed to a predetermined position by the laundry conveying mechanism 300, the clothes hanger is connected to the clothes hanger by the laundry dragging mechanism 400 from the laundry conveying mechanism 300, and the laundry on the clothes hanger is laid on the folding platform mechanism 200 by dragging the clothes hanger, at this time, the length direction of the laundry is oriented in the longitudinal direction (front-rear direction) of the laundry folding machine 1, and the width direction of the laundry is oriented in the transverse direction (left-right direction) of the laundry folding machine 1.
When the clothes are the upper clothes, after the upper clothes are tiled on the folding platform mechanism 200, the upper clothes are pressed on the folding platform mechanism 200 by the clothes positioning mechanism 500, so that the clothes are prevented from moving and deforming, the clothes hanger separating mechanism 600 connects clothes hangers from the clothes dragging mechanism 400 and drags the clothes hangers to move, and the upper clothes are positioned on the folding platform mechanism 200 by the clothes positioning mechanism 500 at the moment, so that the upper clothes cannot move, and the clothes hangers are separated from the upper clothes. Thereafter, the laundry folding mechanism 800 folds the upper garment in cooperation with the laundry positioning mechanism 500.
Further, a trousers lifting mechanism 700 is added on the frame, so that the clothes folding machine 1 can fold trousers; since the pants are longer than other garments, the portion of the pants that needs to be folded is lifted by the pants lifting mechanism 700 to complete the folding process. Also, the control unit communicates with the pants lifting mechanism 700.
When the trousers are trousers, the trousers need to be in a trouser leg state when being hung on the clothes hanger, and the trousers can be folded along the trouser line of the trousers, or the two trouser legs can be folded in half, so long as the trousers are folded into a trouser leg state, and then the trousers are hung on the clothes hanger. After the trousers are laid on the folding platform mechanism 200, the clothes hanger separating mechanism 600 receives the clothes hangers from the clothes dragging mechanism 400 and drags the clothes hangers to move, the trousers are positioned by the trousers lifting mechanism 700, and the trousers cannot move, so that the clothes hangers are separated from the trousers. Then, the trousers are lifted by the trousers lifting mechanism 700 with the cooperation of the clothes positioning mechanism 500, and then the trousers are folded by the clothes folding mechanism 800 with the cooperation of the clothes positioning mechanism 500, and then the trousers lifting mechanism 700 throws down and refolding the lifted portion of the trousers. It will be appreciated that the longer body skirt may be folded using the pants lifting mechanism 700, with the same option of folding the body skirt in half. For the machine 1 of the present invention, the overskirt during folding may be considered a special "pant", a "pant" having only one leg.
After the laundry folding mechanism 800 completes the folding action, the folding platform mechanism 200 folds the laundry again by turning over and slides off the folding platform mechanism 200.
The actions and cooperation of the mechanisms are controlled and executed by the control unit.
According to the clothes folding machine 1 provided by the embodiment of the invention, the clothes can be tiled, positioned and folded, so that the automatic folding of the clothes (including the upper clothes and trousers) is realized, the manual clothes folding is replaced, the efficiency is high, the labor intensity is low, and the folded clothes can be ensured to be tidy and consistent.
It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the machine 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention may not include the trousers lifting mechanism 700, that is, the machine 1 automatically folds the upper garment, and the embodiment is also within the scope of the present invention.
The following describes a garment stacker 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 1 to 15, the laundry machine 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a frame 100, a folding platform mechanism 200, a laundry conveying mechanism 300, a laundry dragging mechanism 400, a laundry positioning mechanism 500, a hanger separating mechanism 600, a trousers lifting mechanism 700, a laundry folding mechanism 800, a control unit, an identification unit, a detection unit, a hanger storing unit, and a laundry storing unit.
Specifically, the identification unit and the detection unit are in communication with the control unit, respectively. The recognition unit is used for recognizing whether the laundry spread on the folding platform mechanism 200 by the laundry dragging mechanism 400 is a coat or a trousers, so that the corresponding laundry folding action can be conveniently performed later. The detecting unit is used for detecting whether the clothes (upper clothes) paved on the folding platform mechanism 200 by the clothes dragging mechanism 400 exceed the folding platform mechanism 200, and when the clothes are detected to be overlong, the clothes can be folded once by the clothes folding mechanism 800 under the cooperation of the clothes positioning mechanism 500, so that the clothes are completely paved on the folding platform mechanism 200.
Further, the hanger receiving unit is provided below the hanger separating mechanism 600, and the hanger separating mechanism 600 separates the hangers from the laundry spread on the folding platform mechanism 200, and then the hangers fall into the hanger receiving unit. The laundry accommodating unit is provided below the folding platform mechanism 200, and laundry sliding from the folding platform mechanism 200 falls into the laundry accommodating unit.
Alternatively, the following generally describes the relative positions of the mechanisms on the chassis 100, as shown in fig. 1, the folding platform mechanism 200 is disposed at the center of the chassis 100, the laundry transporting mechanism 300 is disposed adjacent to the rear end of the chassis 100, the hanger separating mechanism 600 and the trousers lifting mechanism 700 are disposed adjacent to the front end of the chassis 100, the laundry positioning mechanism 500 and the laundry folding mechanism 800 are disposed around the folding platform mechanism 200, respectively, and the laundry dragging mechanism 400 is located above the folding platform mechanism 200 and reciprocally movable between the laundry transporting mechanism 300 and the hanger separating mechanism 600. Therefore, each mechanism can conveniently complete respective actions, and interference among the mechanisms is avoided.
In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1-3 and 15, the laundry transport mechanism 300 includes an upper driving wheel 310, a lower driving wheel 320, a timing belt 330, and a transport driving device 340.
The upper drive wheel 310 is rotatably mounted on the frame 100. The lower drive wheel 320 is rotatably mounted on the frame 100 and is located above the upper drive wheel 310. The synchronous belt 330 is sleeved on the upper driving wheel 310 and the lower driving wheel 320, and a hook is arranged on the synchronous belt 330. The conveyor drive 340 is mounted on the frame 100 and is in driving connection with at least one of the upper and lower drive wheels 310, 320, the control unit being in communication with the conveyor drive 340.
The hanger with clothes is hung on the hook 331 of the synchronous belt 330, the conveying driving device 340 is controlled to run by the control unit, at least one of the upper driving wheel 310 and the lower driving wheel 320 is driven to rotate when the conveying driving device 340 runs, and the upper driving wheel 310 and the lower driving wheel 320 are connected in a tensioning way by the synchronous belt 330, so that the upper driving wheel 310 and the lower driving wheel 320 synchronously rotate and drive the synchronous belt 330 to move, and the hanger on the hook 331 of the synchronous belt 330 is conveyed from bottom to top and then conveyed from back to front, thereby being convenient for the clothes dragging mechanism 400 to connect the hanger and spread the clothes on the folding platform mechanism 200. Thereby, the clothes hanger can be conveyed, the clothes hanger is separated from the synchronous belt 330, and the clothes hanger is combined with the clothes dragging mechanism 400, and the continuous conveying of clothes is completed.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 2, the upper fixing base 110 and the lower fixing base 120 are mounted on the frame 100, the number of the upper fixing base 110 and the lower fixing base 120 may be determined according to practical applications, the upper driving wheel 310 is rotatably mounted on the upper fixing base 110 through the upper rotating shaft 311, and the lower driving wheel 320 is rotatably mounted on the lower fixing base 120 through the lower rotating shaft 321, so as to implement rotatable mounting of the upper driving wheel 310 and the lower driving wheel 320 on the frame 100.
Further, in order to ensure smooth rotation of the upper and lower driving wheels 310 and 320 and reduce abrasion of components, the upper rotating shaft 311 is engaged with the upper fixing base 110 through an upper bearing, and the lower rotating shaft 321 is engaged with the lower fixing base 120 through a lower bearing.
In some specific examples of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the upper driving wheels 310 are a plurality of synchronous rotation, the lower driving wheels 320 are a plurality of synchronous rotation, and the number of the upper driving wheels 310 is identical to that of the lower driving wheels 320 and the upper driving wheels 310 are paired. The number of the synchronous belts 330 is plural, and each synchronous belt 330 is sleeved on one upper driving wheel 310 and one lower driving wheel 320 respectively, that is, each synchronous belt 330 is tightly sleeved on one pair of upper driving wheels 310 and lower driving wheels 320. The drawings show examples of two upper driving wheels 310, lower driving wheels 320 and timing belts 330, respectively, although the present invention is not limited thereto. Therefore, the plurality of synchronous belts 330 can be utilized to communicate with the clothes rack with the clothes, the stability of the clothes rack and the clothes in the conveying process is ensured, the clothes are always kept in a balanced state, and the follow-up clothes dragging mechanism 400 is convenient for regularly spreading the clothes on the folding platform mechanism 200.
Further, as shown in fig. 2, the plurality of upper driving wheels 310 share an upper rotating shaft 311; and/or the plurality of lower driving wheels 320 share a lower rotating shaft 321. In other words, the plurality of upper driving wheels 310 share one upper rotating shaft 311, or the plurality of lower driving wheels 320 share one lower rotating shaft 321, or the plurality of upper driving wheels 310 share one upper rotating shaft 311 and the plurality of lower driving wheels 320 share one lower rotating shaft 321. This improves the synchronism of the rotation of the plurality of upper driving wheels 310 and the plurality of lower driving wheels 320, and simplifies the structure.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 2, the conveying driving device 340 is drivingly connected to at least one of the upper rotating shaft 311 and the lower rotating shaft 321 through a conveying belt 350 to transmit power, and a variable speed transmission may be implemented. An alternative example is shown in the drawing, two lower driving wheels 320 share a lower rotating shaft 321, two upper driving wheels 310 respectively and independently adopt an upper rotating shaft 311, and a conveying driving device 340 is in transmission connection with the lower rotating shaft 321 through a conveying driving belt 350.
In some specific examples of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the hooks 331 may be plural, and the plural hooks 331 may be provided on the outer circumferential surface of the timing belt 330 at intervals in the circumferential direction of the timing belt 330, for example, the plural hooks 331 may be provided at equal intervals in the circumferential direction of the timing belt 330. Therefore, each hook 331 can be hung with a clothes hanger, and after the clothes on the previous clothes hanger are folded, the next clothes hanger can be immediately conveyed, so that continuous conveying and folding of the clothes are further facilitated, and the clothes folding efficiency is further improved.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 3, the hook 331 includes a connection portion 332 and a stopper portion 333.
One end of the connecting portion 332 is connected to the outer peripheral surface of the timing belt 330. The stopping part 333 is connected to the other end of the connecting part 332, and the hanger is hung on the connecting part 332 and stopped by the stopping part 333.
Wherein, when the hook 331 rotates with the timing belt 330 to face to the outside of the machine 1 (i.e., to the rear), the stopper 333 extends upward from the connecting portion 332. When the hook 331 rotates with the timing belt 330 toward the inside (i.e., toward the front) of the machine 1, the stopper 333 extends downward from the connecting portion 332. This ensures that the hanger does not become detached from the hook 331 when the hanger is lifted and automatically becomes detached from the hook 331 after the hanger is conveyed forward in place, so that the hanger is picked up by the garment dragging mechanism 400.
Advantageously, the hooks 331 are integrally formed with the timing belt 330, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process, reducing the manufacturing cost, and improving the reliability of the structure.

The conveying driving device 340 drives the lower driving wheel 320 and the upper driving wheel 310 to rotate, drives the synchronous belt 330 to move, and lifts the clothes rack with clothes, when the clothes is lifted to the top end of the synchronous belt 330, the clothes rack moves forward along the tangential direction of the upper driving wheel 310, at this time or after the synchronous belt 330 continues to move, the stop part 333 extends downwards from the connecting part 332, and the clothes rack can be separated from the hook 331, so that the clothes dragging mechanism 400 can conveniently receive the clothes rack and spread the clothes on the clothes rack on the folding platform mechanism 200. After the clothes on the previous clothes hanger are folded, the synchronous belt 330 continues to convey the next clothes hanger until the clothes on the synchronous belt 330 are folded sequentially, the clothes hanger with the clothes can be hung on the hook 331 of the synchronous belt 330 again, and continuous conveying of the clothes is completed sequentially and circularly.

The left transverse folding rod 833 moves from left to right and folds the left side and the left sleeves of the upper garment, the left transverse folding rod 833 returns after folding, the right transverse folding rod 843 moves from right to left and folds the right side and the right sleeves of the upper garment, and the right transverse folding rod 843 returns after folding. The front left lateral positioning rocker 541, the rear left lateral positioning rocker 542, the front right lateral positioning rocker 551, and the rear right lateral positioning rocker 552 are returned. The left and right in-garment positioning rocker arms 531, 532 act to compress the middle of the upper garment, the longitudinal folding bar 814 moves forward and folds the upper garment, and then the longitudinal folding bar 814, left and right in-garment positioning rocker arms 531, 532 return.
It will be appreciated that the sequence of movement of the left and right transverse tuck bars 833, 843 is not fixed and may be arranged to first fold either the left or right side; also, the whole movement process of the two can be staggered, for example, when one transverse clothes folding rod returns, the other transverse clothes folding rod can start to move so as to fold clothes, so that the operation time of the clothes folding machine is more reasonably arranged. Of course, to reduce interference during folding of the garment, the transverse tuck bar requires return between longitudinal tuck bar movements.
② If the length of the upper garment exceeds the folding platform mechanism 200, the left bottom longitudinal positioning rocker 511 acts and presses the left side of the rear portion of the upper garment, the right bottom longitudinal positioning rocker 512 acts and presses the right side of the rear portion of the upper garment, and the longitudinal folding rod 814 acts to fold the portion of the upper garment exceeding the folding platform mechanism 200, so that the upper garment is completely laid on the folding platform mechanism 200. Then, the left bottom longitudinal positioning rocker 511 and the right bottom longitudinal positioning rocker 512 are returned, the front left lateral positioning rocker 541 is moved and presses the left front portion of the upper garment, the rear left lateral positioning rocker 542 is moved and presses the left rear portion of the upper garment, the front right lateral positioning rocker 551 is moved and presses the right front portion of the upper garment, the rear right lateral positioning rocker 552 is moved and presses the right rear portion of the upper garment, the hanger separating mechanism 600 separates the hanger from the upper garment, the left lateral folding rod 833 is moved from left to right and folds the left side and the left sleeve of the upper garment, the folded left lateral folding rod 833 is returned, the right lateral folding rod 843 is moved from right to left and folds the right side and the right sleeve of the upper garment, and the folded right lateral folding rod 843 is returned. The front left lateral positioning rocker 541, the rear left lateral positioning rocker 542, the front right lateral positioning rocker 551, and the rear right lateral positioning rocker 552 are returned. The left and right in-garment positioning rocker arms 531, 532 act to compress the middle of the upper garment, the longitudinal folding bar 814 moves forward and folds the upper garment, and then the longitudinal folding bar 814, left and right in-garment positioning rocker arms 531, 532 return.
(2) When the recognition unit detects that the laundry is trousers, the taker 421 is powered off to release the clothes hanger, the separator 621 is powered on to suck the clothes hanger, and then the separation bracket 620 moves forward under the driving of the separation driving device 630 and drives the clothes hanger and trousers thereon, the waist of trousers is clamped by the trousers clamps 752 during the forward movement of trousers, and the clothes hanger is separated from the trousers after the separation bracket 620 continues to move forward. The left garment top longitudinal positioning rocker 521 acts and positions the front portion of the left side of the pants and the right garment top longitudinal positioning rocker 522 acts and positions the front portion of the right side of the pants, it being understood here that the left garment top longitudinal positioning rocker 521 and the right garment top longitudinal positioning rocker 522 only perform positioning and guiding functions and do not compress the pants. The vertical driving device 770 drives the trouser clip assembly 750 to ascend along the vertical rail 740 and drive the trousers to ascend, for example, 1/4 of the total length of the trousers is lifted, the trousers still remain laid on the folding platform mechanism 200 during the lifting process under the positioning guide of the left garment top longitudinal positioning rocker 521 and the right garment top longitudinal positioning rocker 522, and the length of the part of the trousers exceeding the folding platform mechanism 200 is shortened.
After that, the left bottom longitudinal positioning rocker 511 acts and presses the rear portion of the left side of the trousers, the right bottom longitudinal positioning rocker 512 acts and presses the rear portion of the right side of the trousers, the longitudinal folding rod 814 folds the portion of the trousers beyond the folding platform mechanism 200 forward under the cooperation of the left bottom longitudinal positioning rocker 511 and the right bottom longitudinal positioning rocker 512, and one folding is completed, and the longitudinal folding rod 814, the left bottom longitudinal positioning rocker 511 and the right bottom longitudinal positioning rocker 512 return. The left positioning rocker 531 acts and presses the middle part of the left side of the trousers, the right positioning rocker 532 acts and presses the middle part of the right side of the trousers, and the longitudinal folding rod 814 folds the trousers forwards by matching the left positioning rocker 531 with the right positioning rocker 532, so as to complete secondary folding, and the left positioning rocker 531 and the right positioning rocker 532 return.
It will be appreciated here that the left bottom longitudinal positioning rocker 511 and the right bottom longitudinal positioning rocker 512 may be deactivated and folded directly by the longitudinal folding bar 814 during one folding of the trousers.
Then, the traversing rack 720 drives the trousers clip assembly 750 to move backward, and in the process of the backward movement of the trousers clip assembly 750, the trousers clip assembly 750 simultaneously moves downward, the lifted parts of trousers are thrown to the folding platform mechanism 200, the trousers clips 752 loosen the waist of trousers, three folds are completed under the cooperation of the left garment top longitudinal positioning rocker 521 and the right garment top longitudinal positioning rocker 522, and the left garment top longitudinal positioning rocker 521 and the right garment top longitudinal positioning rocker 522 return.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the folding platform mechanism 200 may be displaced up and down, and the plurality of positioning arms may be used to better compress and position the clothes by moving the folding platform mechanism upwards.
In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, 13 and 14, folding platform mechanism 200 includes a left flip platform 210, a right flip platform 220, a left flip drive 230, and a right flip drive 240.
