DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

(9) The following describes the present disclosure in conjunction with accompanying drawings and detailed description.

(10) A paper winding machine, as shown in FIG. 1, includes a winding roller configured for winding a paper, such as a drawing paper. The winding roller is installed on a frame body 2. Winding roller adjusting mechanisms are arranged at two ends of the winding roller in an axis direction of the winding roller respectively. The winding roller adjusting mechanisms are arranged in the winding roller. The winding roller adjusting mechanisms are configured for adjusting the diameter of the winding roller. The two winding roller adjusting mechanisms are rotationally connected with a first rotating shaft 3 and a second rotating shaft 4 respectively. The axes of the first rotating shaft 3, the second rotating shaft 4 and the winding roller are coincided with each other. The first rotating shaft 3 is coaxially connected with an output shaft of a crank handle 5. The crank handle 5 is rotationally installed on the frame body 2. The second rotating shaft 4 and the first rotating shaft 3 are assembled with bearing seats 6 respectively. The bearing seats 6 are removably installed on the frame body 2, particularly via bolts.

(11) A through groove 7 is formed in the outer wall of the winding roller, and plays a role in clamping an end of the paper. One end of the paper is clamped in the through groove 7 of the winding roller, the output shaft of the crank handle 5 is rotated to drive the winding roller to rotate, and the winding roller drives the paper to be wound. After winding is finished, the bearing seats 6 are detached from the frame body 2, so that one end of the second rotating shaft 2 of the winding roller becomes a free end, and then the two adjusting mechanisms are adjusted. The outer wall of the winding roller moves inwards in the radial direction of the winding roller, so that the radius of the winding roller is reduced, and a gap is formed between the outer wall of the winding roller and the wound paper, which facilitates to detaching the paper from the free end. Then, the adjusting mechanisms are adjusted, the radius of the winding roller is increased and reset, and the winding roller is rotated to an initial position. The bearing seats 6 are fixed to the frame body 2 for a next winding. Through such winding mode, the paper is easy to be separated from the winding roller, for facilitating the next winding operation, and thus the paper winding efficiency is improved.

(12) The specific structure of the winding roller is that, as shown in FIG. 2, the winding roller includes a plurality of arc-shaped plates 1, specifically three arc-shaped plates 1. The three arc-shaped plates 1 are mutually independent and define a cylindrical structure. As a point of reference, the view of FIG. 4 reflects an arrangement of the arc-shaped plates 1 relative to one another as dictated by a normal state of the winding roller adjustment mechanisms; as shown, circumferentially adjacent sides of the arc-plates 1 are separated from one another by a gap, and with the arc-shaped plates 1 collectively defining a cylindrical shape or structure (e.g., in the view of FIG. 4, the cylindrical structure collectively defined the arc-shaped plates 1 is effectively a discontinuous cylinder in view of the gap between successively adjacent ones of the arc-shaped plates 1). The through groove 7 is formed in at least one of the arc-shaped plates 1. In some embodiments, each of the arc-shaped plates 1 can form a corresponding through groove 7. Each arc-shaped plate 1 extends from one end of the first rotating shaft 3 to the second rotating shaft 4 in the axis direction of the second rotating shaft 4.

(13) As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the two winding roller adjusting mechanisms are the same in structures, and the two winding roller adjusting mechanisms are connected with the first rotating shaft 3 and the second rotating shaft 4 in the same mode. Now, the connection of the winding roller adjusting mechanism and the first rotating shaft 3 is described as an example. The specific structure of the winding roller adjusting mechanism is that the adjusting mechanism includes an adjusting cylinder 8, which is sleeved on the first rotating shaft 3, and is threadedly connected with the first rotating shaft 3; an adjusting block 9 is formed at the end, away from the first rotating shaft 3, of the adjusting cylinder 8, and is provided with telescopic mechanisms, which are arranged at the position corresponding to the centers of arc-shaped plates 1 respectively, and are configured for enabling respective arc-shaped plate 1 to expand outwards or contract inwards in the radial direction of the arc-shaped plate 1. Therefore, the diameter of the winding roller is adjusted.

(14) The specific structure of the telescopic mechanism is that the telescopic mechanism includes sleeves 10, the number of the sleeves 10 is the same as that of the arc-shaped plates 1. The sleeve 10 is formed on the periphery surface of the adjusting block 9. The axes of the sleeve 10 are mounted at a center position of a respective arc-shaped plate 1. A first spring 11 is fixedly connected to the internal bottom of the sleeve 10, one end of the first spring 11 is fixedly connected with the internal bottom of the sleeve 10, and the other end of the first spring 11 is fixedly connected with the telescopic rod 12 in the sleeve 10. The telescopic rod 12 extends outwards in the axis direction of the sleeve 10 to the respective arc-shaped plate 1 and is integrally formed with the arc-shaped plate 1. An adjusting rod 13 extending outwards in the axis direction of the winding roller is integrally formed on each telescopic rod 12.

(15) According to the specific mode of adjusting the diameter of the winding roller, after the paper is wound by the winding roller, the paper needs to be separated from the winding roller. Firstly, all adjusting rods 13 are pressed in a direction close to the sleeve 10 in the axis direction of the telescopic rod 12 by an external force, so that the diameter of the winding roller is reduced, and the paper is easily taken down from the winding roller. Then, the external force acting on the adjusting rods 13 is cancelled, the first springs 11 support the telescopic rods 12 to expand outwards under the action of elastic potential energy, the telescopic rods 12 support the arc-shaped plates 1 to move outwards, and therefore the winding roller is reset, and the next winding operation can be conducted.

(16) As shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, specifically, an anti-reverse mechanism is provided between the crank handle 5 and the frame body 2 and configured for preventing the crank handle 5 from rotating reversely. The specific structure of the anti-reverse mechanism includes a ratchet wheel brake unit, and the ratchet wheel brake unit includes a ratchet wheel 14 coaxially assembled on an output shaft of the crank handle 5. A pawl 15 matched with the ratchet wheel 14 is rotationally connected to the outer wall of the frame body 2 via a roll pin.

(17) As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 7, a pressing unit is installed on the frame body 2 and configured for winding the paper more compactly. The specific structure of the pressing unit includes a supporting plate 16. The supporting plate 16 is rotationally connected to the bottom of the frame body 2. Elastic components are fixedly connected between the supporting plate 16 and the bottom of the frame body 2, and can enable the supporting plate 16 to move in a vertical direction. A flat plate 18 is formed at the end, away from the bottom of the frame body 2, of the supporting plate 16 and tangent to the outer wall of the winding roller. When the paper is wound by the winding roller, the elastic components drive the flat plate 18 to abut against the paper wound on the winding roller, and therefore the paper is wound more compactly.

(18) The specific structures of the elastic components are that the elastic components include a plurality of second springs 17. The second springs 17 are arranged at intervals in the length direction of the frame body 2. The second springs 17 are fixedly connected with the supporting plate 16 and the bottom of the frame body 2 respectively. The second springs 17 drive the flat plate 18 of the supporting plate 16 to abut against the outer wall of the winding roller. When the paper is wound, the flat plate 18 abuts against the wound paper under the action of the second springs 17, so that the paper is wound more compactly and flatly.
