Theslideway 20 is movably disposed on thebase 10. The positioning pressingwheel set 30 is disposed above theslideway 20. A workpiece to be processed (not shown) is clipped between theslideway 20 and the positioning pressing wheel set 30, and can be moved. Thepre-milling mechanism 40 performs a preliminary processing to the surface of the workpiece. Theglue applying mechanism 50 applies glue to the surface of the workpiece.

- As shown in
FIG. 2 , an edge banding machine according to an embodiment of the present invention is adapted to attach an edge band B to a workpiece (not shown). The edge banding machine includes abase 10, adrive motor 20, an edgeband conveying mechanism 30, aglue applying mechanism 40, and auniversal bearing 50. - Wherein, the
base 10 is adapted for the installation of theaforementioned drive motor 20, edgeband conveying mechanism 30,glue applying mechanism 40, and other various mechanisms such as horizontal pressing wheel set and top and bottom trimming mechanisms. - The
drive motor 20 is disposed on thebase 10 for driving the edgeband conveying mechanism 30 and theglue applying mechanism 40. Thedrive motor 20 structurally includes a motormain body 21, adecelerator 22 and apower outputting shaft 23. The motormain body 21 is connected with thedecelerator 22. Thedecelerator 22 outputs power through thepower outputting shaft 23 to drive the edgeband conveying mechanism 30 and theglue applying mechanism 40. Afirst chain wheel 24 is sleeved onto thepower outputting shaft 23. - Referring to

Thepneumatic cylinder 31 is installed on a supportingframe 15 of thebase 10. Thepneumatic cylinder 31 has atelescopic rod 311. The pushingblock 32 is disposed at a terminal end of thetelescopic rod 311. Besides, in this embodiment, three upper bearings 35 (shown inFIG. 7 ) are disposed below the pushingblock 32. Theupper bearings 35 are rotatably attached to the pushingblock 32, and theupper bearings 35 are adapted to be abutted against the edge band B. The edgeband conveying shaft 33 is disposed on the base 10 rotatably in situ, and the edgeband conveying shaft 33 is disposed parallel to thepower outputting shaft 23.

The pushingblock 32 and the edgeband conveying shaft 33 are located on two opposite sides of theposition limiting plate 34 respectively. The edge band B extends on the supportingframe 15 and passes through theopening 341. When thepneumatic cylinder 31 drives thetelescopic rod 311 to lengthen thetelescopic rod 311, the pushingblock 32 is driven to approach the edgeband conveying shaft 33. The edge band B is pushed by the pushingblock 32 to approach the edgeband conveying shaft 33, so that the edge band B and a top end portion of the edgeband conveying shaft 33 are in contact with each other.
