FIG. 1 illustrates one embodiment of a sizing conveyor line. As shown in fig. 1, the sizing material conveying line includes a conveying belt 11 and a conveying belt 12, and the conveying belt 11 and the conveying belt 12 are respectively driven by a motor 13 and convey the sizing material 4 placed thereon. The conveyor belt 11 is disposed on the upstream side of the conveyor belt 12 and both are operated independently of each other while the two conveyor belts 11, 12 are spaced apart from each other by a distance. In the parts not shown in the figures, a buffer device is further arranged at the position where the conveyor belt 11 and the conveyor belt 12 are separated, and the buffer device is a buffer space defined by the two conveyor belts 11 and 12 at intervals or a buffer space defined by a bracket or a rack. The buffer space is filled with the glue 4 buffered between the two conveyor belts 11, 12. In a part not shown in the figure, the sizing material conveying line further comprises a foreign matter automatic removing station, the conveying belt 11 and the conveying belt 12 are arranged on the downstream side of the foreign matter automatic removing station, a foreign matter detection device for accurately positioning the metal foreign matters is arranged on the foreign matter automatic removing station, and a foreign matter removing device for removing the metal foreign matters in the sizing material is arranged on the foreign matter automatic removing station. When the foreign matter detection device detects that there is metallic foreign matter at the upstream side of transmission band 11, transmission band 11 shuts down, and the metallic foreign matter that foreign matter detection device detected and was fixed a position is rejected to foreign matter rejection equipment simultaneously, and transmission band 12 continues to transmit the sizing material 4 of buffer memory in the buffer memory space and supplies the follow-up procedure operation this moment, and after the foreign matter rejection equipment was rejected and is accomplished, transmission band 11 resumes work. In one embodiment, the foreign material removing apparatus may be a punching machine capable of removing metallic foreign materials by punching the surface of the sizing material 4; the foreign matter detection device may be an X-ray detector.
When the foreign matters are removed, the sizing material conveying line arranged in the mode only needs to stop the conveying belt 11, and the sizing material 4 in the buffer memory space can enable the conveying belt 12 and the downstream process equipment to continue working, so that the efficiency of the production line can not be influenced when the metal foreign matters are removed.
Fig. 2 shows a further embodiment of a glue line, from which fig. 2 the first glue detection device 21 is added to the glue line of fig. 1. The first glue detecting device 21 has a first detection zone 210 located in the buffer space and capable of detecting whether glue 4 buffered in the buffer space enters the first detection zone 210. In a part not shown in the figures, the glue conveyor line further comprises a control system capable of controlling the rotation speed of the upstream one 11 of the two conveyors in accordance with the output signal of the first glue detecting device 21, so as to adjust the lowest position of the glue 4 buffered in the buffer space into the first detection zone 210.
When the first sizing material detecting device 21 detects that the sizing material 4 buffered in the buffer space does not enter the first detecting area 210, the control system sends a signal and controls the output power of the motor in the transmission belt 11 to increase the transmission speed of the transmission belt 11, until the sizing material 4 enters the first detecting area 210, the control system sends a signal again and controls the motor 13 in the transmission belt 11, so that the transmission speed of the transmission belt 11 is reduced and the initial state is recovered. This may be repeated so that the amount of buffer of size 4 buffered in the buffer space can be maintained in the first inspection area 210.
Fig. 3 shows an embodiment of the method for size conveying, which is described in detail below with reference to fig. 2 and 3. The conveying speed of the conveying belt 11 on the upstream side is v1, and the maximum conveying speed of the conveying belt 12 on the downstream side is v2 max. When the sizing material conveying line is powered on, the speed v1 is set to be the same as v2max, the conveying belt 11 and the conveying belt 12 run at the same time, and the controller adjusts the size v1 according to the feedback signal of the first sizing material detection device 21: when the first size detecting device 21 detects the entry of size 4 into the first detection area 210, v1 is multiplied by 0.99 every second, thereby gradually decreasing v 1; when the first glue detecting device 21 does not detect that glue 4 enters the first detection zone 210, v1 is multiplied by 1.01 every second, so that v1 is gradually increased, and this is repeated, so that it is ensured that the lowest position of glue 4 in the buffer space is always kept in the first detection zone 210.
Fig. 4 shows another embodiment of the glue line, from which fig. 4 a second glue detecting device 22 is added to the glue line of fig. 2. The second glue detecting device 22 has a second detection zone 220 located in the buffer space and capable of detecting whether glue 4 buffered in the buffer space enters the second detection zone 220. Wherein the second glue detecting device 22 is arranged higher than the first glue detecting device 21 such that the second detecting area 220 is higher than the first detecting area 210, i.e. the second detecting area 220 is closer to the conveyor belt 11 and the conveyor belt 12 than the first detecting area 210, while a first height difference L1 exists between the second detecting area 220 and the first detecting area 210.
When the control system receives a signal that the second sizing material detection device 22 does not detect that the sizing material 4 enters the second detection area 220, the controller controls and increases the transmission speed of the upstream side transmission belt 11 until the first sizing material detection device 21 detects that the sizing material 4 buffered in the buffer space enters the first detection area 210, and the controller controls and adjusts the transmission speed of the transmission belt 11 to be the same as the transmission speed of the transmission belt 12, so that the buffer amount of the sizing material 4 in the buffer space can be kept between the second detection area 220 and the first detection area 210.
Fig. 5 shows another embodiment of the method for conveying size material, the steps of which are specifically described below by means of fig. 4 and 5 in combination. The conveying speed of the conveying belt 11 on the upstream side is v1, and the maximum conveying speed of the conveying belt 12 on the downstream side is v2 max. When the sizing material conveying line is powered on, the speed v1 is set to be the same as v2max, the conveying belt 11 and the conveying belt 12 run simultaneously, and at the moment, if the second sizing material detecting device 22 detects that the sizing material 4 enters the second detecting area 220, the controller adjusts the size v1 according to the feedback of the first sizing material detecting device 21: when the first size detecting device 21 detects the entry of size 4 into the first detection area 210, v1 is multiplied by 0.99 every second, thereby gradually decreasing v 1; when the first glue detecting device 21 does not detect that glue 4 enters the first detection zone 210, v1 is multiplied by 1.01 every second, so that v1 is gradually increased, and this is repeated, so that the lowest position of glue 4 in the buffer space is always kept between the second detection zone 220 and the first detection zone 210.
If the second glue detecting device 22 does not detect that glue 4 enters the second detection area 220, v1 is set to be twice v2max, so as to rapidly increase the conveying speed of the conveyor belt 11 until the second glue detecting device 22 detects that glue 4 enters the second detection area 220, the controller records the time t1, and then the conveyor belt 11 continues to convey at twice v2max until the first glue detecting device 21 detects that glue 4 enters the first detection area 210, the controller records the time t2, and the v1 is set as: "v 1 ═ 2 × v2max-2 × L1/(t2-t 1)", so that the speed of the conveyance belt 11 is set to be the same as the speed of the conveyance belt 12. Thereafter the controller continues to adjust the magnitude of v1 based on the feedback signal from the first size detecting device 21: when the first size detecting device 21 detects the entry of size 4 into the first detection area 210, v1 is multiplied by 0.99 every second, thereby gradually decreasing v 1; when the first glue detecting device 21 does not detect that glue 4 enters the first detection zone 210, v1 is multiplied by 1.01 every second, so that v1 is gradually increased, and this is repeated, so that the lowest position of glue 4 in the buffer space is always kept between the second detection zone 220 and the first detection zone 210.
Fig. 6 shows another embodiment of the glue line, from which fig. 6 a third glue detection device 23 is added to the glue line of fig. 4. The third glue detecting device 23 has a third detection zone 230 located in the buffer space, which is capable of detecting whether glue 4 buffered in the buffer space has entered the third detection zone 230. Wherein the third glue detecting device 23 is arranged below the first glue detecting device 21 in the buffer device close to the stock limit of the buffer area, so that the third detection area 230 is below the first detection area 210, i.e. the first detection area 210 is closer to the transport belt 11 and the transport belt 12 than the third detection area 230, while a second height difference L2 exists between the third detection area 230 and the first detection area 210.
When the control system receives a signal that the third glue detecting device 23 outputs and detects that the glue 4 enters the third detecting area 230, the controller controls and increases the transmission speed of the upstream side transmission belt 11 until the first glue detecting device 21 detects that the glue 4 buffered in the buffer space enters the first detecting area 210, the controller controls and adjusts the transmission speed of the transmission belt 11 to be the same as the transmission speed of the transmission belt 12, and therefore the buffer amount of the glue 4 in the buffer space can be guaranteed not to exceed the storage limit of the buffer device. If the controller receives the signal sent by the third rubber compound detecting device 23 that the rubber compound 4 is not detected and simultaneously receives the signal sent by the second rubber compound detecting device 22 that the rubber compound 4 is detected, the control system adjusts the conveying speed of the upstream side conveying belt 11 according to whether the first rubber compound detecting device detects the signal of the rubber compound 4, when the rubber compound 4 is detected to enter the first detecting area 210, the speed of the upstream side conveying belt 11 is reduced, and if the rubber compound 4 is detected not to enter the first detecting area 210, the speed of the upstream side conveying belt 11 is increased, so that the lowest position of the cached rubber compound can be guaranteed to be adjusted to the first detecting area.
Fig. 7 shows another embodiment of the size conveying method, which will be described in detail below by means of fig. 6 and 7 in conjunction, wherein the conveying speed of the conveyor belt 11 on the upstream side is v1 and the maximum conveying speed of the conveyor belt 12 on the downstream side is v2 max. When the sizing material conveying line is powered on, the v1 speed is set to be the same as v2max, and the conveying belts 11 and 12 run simultaneously. At this time, if the third glue detecting device 23 does not detect that the glue 4 enters the third detecting area 230, and at the same time the second glue detecting device 22 detects that the glue 4 enters the second detecting area 220, the controller adjusts the magnitude of v1 according to the feedback of the first glue detecting device 21: when the first size detecting device 21 detects the entry of size 4 into the first detection area 210, v1 is multiplied by 0.99 every second, thereby gradually decreasing v 1; when the first glue detecting device 21 does not detect that glue 4 enters the first detection zone 210, v1 is multiplied by 1.01 every second, so that v1 is gradually increased, and this is repeated, so that the lowest position of glue 4 in the buffer space is always kept between the second detection zone 220 and the first detection zone 210.
If the third glue detecting device 23 does not detect that glue 4 enters the third detection zone 230 and at the same time the second glue detecting device 22 does not detect that glue 4 enters the second detection zone 220, v1 is set to be twice v2max to rapidly increase the transport speed of the transport belt 11 until the second glue detecting device 22 detects that glue 4 enters the second detection zone 220, the controller records the time t1, and subsequently the transport belt 11 continues to transport at twice v2max until the first glue detecting device 21 detects that glue 4 enters the first detection zone 210, the controller records the time t2 and sets the magnitude of v1 to: "v 1 ═ 2 × v2max-2 × L1/(t2-t 1)", so that the speed of the conveyance belt 11 is set to be the same as the speed of the conveyance belt 12. Thereafter the controller continues to adjust the magnitude of v1 based on the feedback signal from the first size detecting device 21: when the first size detecting device 21 detects the entry of size 4 into the first detection area 210, v1 is multiplied by 0.99 every second, thereby gradually decreasing v 1; when the first glue detecting device 21 does not detect that glue 4 enters the first detection zone 210, v1 is multiplied by 1.01 every second, so that v1 is gradually increased, and this is repeated, so that the lowest position of glue 4 in the buffer space is always kept between the second detection zone 220 and the first detection zone 210.
If the third glue detecting device 23 detects that glue 4 enters the third detection area 230, the transport of the transport belt 11 will be stopped, at which point v1 is 0, until the lowest part of the glue 4 leaves the third detection area 230, the controller registers the time t3, and the transport belt 11 continues to stop transport until the lowest part of the glue 4 leaves the first detection area 210, the controller registers the time t4, and at the same time the magnitude of v1 is set to: "v 1 ═ 2 × L2/(t4-t 3)", so as to set the speed of the conveyor belt 11 to be the same as the speed of the conveyor belt 12, after which the controller continues to adjust the magnitude of v1 in accordance with the feedback signal of the first size detecting device 21: when the first size detecting device 21 detects the entry of size 4 into the first detection area 210, v1 is multiplied by 0.99 every second, thereby gradually decreasing v 1; when the first glue detecting device 21 does not detect the entrance of glue 4 into the first detection zone 210, v1 is multiplied by 1.01 every second, so that v1 is gradually increased, which repeatedly ensures that the lowest position of glue 4 in the buffer space is always maintained between the second detection zone 220 and the first detection zone 210, while preventing the lowest position of glue 4 in the buffer space from exceeding the limit position of the buffer device.
In one embodiment, the first, second and third glue material detection devices 21, 22, 23 are a photo detection device comprising a photo emitter and a photo receiver, and when glue material 4 enters between the photo emitter and the photo receiver, the photo detection device outputs a signal to the controller due to the obstruction between the photo emitter and the photo receiver, so that the controller can determine whether glue material 4 enters the first, second or third detection area 210, 220, 230 according to the signal. In another embodiment, the first, second and third glue detecting devices 21, 22, 23 may also be a proximity switch.
In one embodiment, the maximum transport speed v2max of the transport belt 12 is 0.5 m/s, the first height difference L1 between the second detection area 220 and the first detection area 210 is set to be 1.25 m or more, and the transport belt 11 needs to be stopped for 5 seconds per removal of a foreign object, so that it can be ensured that a removal stop time of 5 seconds on the transport belt 11 can be satisfied as long as the glue 4 is present in the second detection area 220.
In one embodiment, when the glue stock conveying line shown in fig. 1 to 4 outputs a signal that no glue stock 4 is detected at the second glue stock detecting device 22 and the foreign matter detecting device detects that foreign matter exists in the glue stock, the controller may send a system alarm signal according to the signal sent by the foreign matter detecting device and instruct the two conveying belts 11 and 12 to stop, so as to prevent the conveying belt 12 from idling in the case that the automatic removing device cannot complete all removing even when the glue stock 4 in the buffer space is completely consumed due to continuous occurrence of a plurality of foreign matters.
In one embodiment, the maximum transport speed v2max of the transport belt 12 is 0.5 m/s, the transport belt 11 needs to be stopped for 5 seconds per removal of one foreign object, and the first height difference L1 between the second detection area 220 and the first detection area 210 is set to be 3.25 m or more, so that it can be ensured that three foreign object removal stop times can be continuously removed on the transport belt 11 as long as the glue 4 is present in the second detection area 220.
