DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The invention is illustrated in accordance with figures. The figures as simplified diagrams demonstrate the basic structures of the apparatus of embodiments of the invention. Thus, the invention is not limited to the figures.

[0026] Referring to FIGS. 1-7, a strip-making machine for bamboo core barrel with precise center-aligned cutting includes a control cabinet 1. A rotating tray 2 is arranged on a side of the control cabinet 1. A conveyor belt 3 and a bamboo breaking device 4 are mounted on the control cabinet 1. The conveyor belt 3 is connected between the rotating tray 2 and the bamboo breaking device 4. The bamboo breaking device 4 is provided with a vertically placed material tube 5. A cone-shaped blade adapter 5a is installed below the inside of the material tube 5. A plurality of circumferentially distributed blades 5a1 are mounted on the outer wall of the blade adapter 5a. The bamboo breaking device 4 further includes a double-stroke hydraulic cylinder 4a disposed above the material tube 5. The top of the piston rod of the double-stroke hydraulic cylinder 4a is equipped with a pressure block 4a1. The pressure block 4a1 can be driven into the inside of the material tube 5 by the double-stroke hydraulic cylinder 4a.

[0027] The present invention relates to the strips of the bamboo core barrel 6 after cutting. The principle is that the bamboo core barrel 6 is delivered into the conveyor belt 3 in a straight and order manner by the rotating tray 2. The bamboo core barrel 6 is pushed into the bamboo breaking device 4 by the push cylinder 3a on the conveyor belt 3. After the bamboo core barrel 6 enters into the bamboo breaking device 4, the bamboo core barrel 6 falls into the material tube 5 and sleeved on the blade adapter 5a. As the shape of the blade adapter is tapered, the bamboo core barrel 6 sleeved on the blade adapter 5a can automatically align its center with the center of the blade adapter 5a. The pressure block 4a1 is pressed by the driving of the double-stroke hydraulic cylinder 4a, which forces the bamboo core barrel 6 to pass through the blade adapter 5a. The bamboo core barrel 6 is cut into a plurality of strip-shaped materials with equal arc length by a plurality of blades 5a1 distributed along the circumference of the blade adapter 5a.

[0028] Baffles are arranged on both sides and the end of the conveyor belt 3. The baffle on both sides are used to prevent the bamboo core barrel 6 from being dumped towards both sides when transported on the conveyor belt 3. The height of the baffle is slightly lower than the height of the bamboo core barrel 6. A push cylinder 3a is mounted on one side of material position of the end of the conveyor belt 3. The pushing direction of the push cylinder 3a is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 3. The push cylinder 3a is used to push the bamboo core barrel 6 on the material position of the end of the conveyor belt 6 to the bamboo breaking device 4. The corresponding bamboo breaking device 4 is disposed on the side of the conveyor belt 3 and disposed opposite to the push cylinder 3a.

[0029] The push cylinder 3a is a three-bar cylinder. An end of three output rod of the push cylinder 3a is equipped with a material support 3a1. The height of the material support 3a1 is slightly lower than the height of bamboo core barrel 6. The use of a three-bar cylinder is more advantageous for fixing the material support 3a1 with such height. The front side of the material support is provided with a curved surface. The curved surface is designed to enlarge the contact area of the material support 3a1 and the bamboo core barrel 6, and make the bamboo core barrel 6 formed into a package, which prevents the bamboo core barrel 6 from shifting towards two sides at the time of delivery.

[0030] The bamboo breaking device 4 further includes a first flat plate 4b. The upper end surface of the first flat plate 4b is in the same plane as the bearing surface of the conveyor belt 3. The first flat plate 4b is provided with a circular hole 4b1. The position of the circular hole 4b1 corresponds to the position of the stroke end of the push cylinder 3a. The material tube 5 is installed below the first flat plate 4b and the material tube 5 is disposed coaxially with the circular hole 4b1. The push cylinder 3a can deliver the bamboo core barrel 6 on the material position of the end of the conveyor belt 3 to a position above the circular hole 4b1 of the first flat plate 4b. The bamboo core barrel 6 passes through the circular hole 4b1 by the gravity and fall inside the material tube 5. The first flat plate 4b is further provided with a material path composed of two vertical plates. When the push cylinder 3a pushes the material, the bamboo core barrel 6 passes through the material path to prevent the bamboo core barrel 6 from falling over.

[0031] The first flat plate 4b is provided with a mounting bracket 4c. The top of the mounting bracket 4b is suspended above the circular hole 4b1. The double-stroke hydraulic cylinder 4a is fixed above the top of the mounting bracket 4c. The pressure block 4a1 is disposed under the top of the mounting bracket 4c. The piston rod of the double-stroke hydraulic cylinder 4a passes through the top of the mounting bracket 4c and connects to the pressure block 4a1. The first stroke distance of the double-stroke hydraulic cylinder 4a corresponds to the distance between the top of the mounting bracket 4c and the first flat plate 4b. The second stroke distance corresponds to the distance between the first flat plate 4b and the top of the blade adapter 5a. The double-stroke hydraulic cylinder 4a is raised by the mounting bracket 4c. The double-stroke hydraulic cylinder 4a does not block the feeding of the bamboo core barrel 6 when the double-stroke hydraulic cylinder 4a is fully retracted. After the bamboo core barrel 6 enters the material tube 5, the double-stroke hydraulic cylinder 4a first drives the pressure block 4a1 to rapidly move to a position close to the first flat plate 4b. Subsequently, the output force of the double-stroke hydraulic cylinder 4a increases, the speed becomes slow, and the bamboo core barrel 6 is slowly and forcefully pressed down so that the bamboo core barrel 6 is cut.

[0032] The bamboo breaking device 4 further includes a second flat plate 4d. The material tube 5 is disposed between the first flat plate 4b and the second flat plate 4d. Four first support rods 4e which around the material tube 5 are disposed between the first flat plate 4b and the second flat plate 4d. The upper end and the lower end of the material tube 5 are provided with flanges 5b. The material tube 5 is fastened between the first flat plate 4b and the second flat plate 4d through the flanges 5b at both ends in cooperation with bolts.

[0033] The bottom end of the inside of the material tube 5 is provided with a holder for blade adapter 5c. The holder for blade adapter 5c includes a cylinder 5c1 and a plurality of connecting pieces 5c2 arranged around the cylinder 5c1. One end of the connecting piece 5c2 is welded on the cylinder 5c1, and the other end of the connecting piece 5c2 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the material tube 5 by welding. The blade adapter 5a is arranged above the cylinder 5c1. The cylinder 5c1 and the bottom of the blade adapter 5a are connected by bolts. Each blade 5a1 on the blade adapter 5a is positioned directly above a connecting piece 5c2. The second flat plate 4d is suspended above the control cabinet 1. Four second support rods 4f arranged in a matrix are disposed between the second flat plate 4d and the control cabinet 1. The second flat plate 4d is provided with a drop hole 4d1 disposed coaxially with the material tube 5. A slide rail 4g is disposed under the second flat plate 4d. The slide rail 4g extends obliquely downward towards the outside of the control cabinet 1 from the bottom of the drop hole. The strip-shaped material formed after the cutting of the bamboo core barrel 6 passes through the gap between the connecting piece 5c2 and the connecting piece 5c2, and after passing through the drop hole 4d1, and drops on the slide rail 4g, and is led out of the control cabinet 1 through the slide rail 4g.

[0034] The exemplary embodiments of the present invention are thus fully described. Although the description referred to particular embodiments, it will be clear to one skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced with variations of these specific details. Hence this invention should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein.
