Abstract

The embodiments of the present disclosure provides a brush manufacturing machine (100) comprising a rotary transportation mechanism (160); a bristle carrier loading station (110); one or more bristle dispensing station (120a-d) comprising a bristle feed mechanism (200), a bristle tuft picker (240), and a bristle plant feeder (250), that plants high-density and short length bristle tufts on a bristle carrier (170) with fine pitch openings; an ultrasonic fusion station (130); a heating station (140); an unloading station (150); and a logic controller system for providing programmed commands, controlling the machine sequence and monitoring the feedback of operating conditions at every station through a network of sensors and actuators.

Claims (14)

1. A brush manufacturing machine comprising: a rotary transportation mechanism (160); a bristle carrier loading station (110); one or more bristle dispensing station (120a-d) comprising a bristle feed mechanism (200), a bristle tuft picker (240), and a bristle plant feeder (250), that plants high-density and short length bristle tufts on a bristle carrier (170) with fine pitch openings; an ultrasonic fusion station (130); a heating station (140); an unloading station (150); and a logic controller system for providing programmed commands, controlling the machine sequence and monitoring the feedback of operating conditions at every station through a network of sensors and actuators.
2. The brush manufacturing machine according to claim 1, wherein the bristle carrier loading station (110) comprises a vibrating feeder bowl, an orientation check feature, a gripper arm having a presence sensor that controls the movement of the gripper arm.
3. The brush manufacturing machine according to claim 1, wherein the bristle feed mechanism (200) comprises a magazine (210) for the bristle tufts, having a vertical compression plate (230) and a horizontal compression plate (220) controlled by a solenoid valve and reed switch.
4. The brush manufacturing machine according to claims 1 and 3, wherein the bristle tuft picker (240) comprises a picker plate (241) with a picker face (242) with one or more through holes (244) with dimensions consistent with the through holes of the bristle carrier openings (172), the shape of the through holes (244) can be semi-circular, but are not limited to such.
5. The brush manufacturing machine according to claim 3 wherein the bristle plant feeder (250) comprises a conically shaped nozzle (252).
6. The brush manufacturing machine according to claims 1 and 5, wherein the conically shaped nozzle (252) embodies a first opening (254), and a second opening (256), where the diameter of the first opening (254) is larger than the diameter of the second opening (256).
7. The brush manufacturing machine according to claims 1, 5 and 6, wherein the conically shaped nozzle (252) receives a distal end of a transport line (270) at the first opening (254).
8. The brush manufacturing machine according to claims 1, 5, 6, and 7, wherein the conically shaped nozzle (252) receives the bristle tufts through the transport line (270) through the first opening (254) to the second opening (256) via a blower and suction system (260).
9. The brush manufacturing machine according to claim 1, wherein the ultrasonic fusion station (130) comprises an ultrasonic hom (132) shaped to match the bristle carrier (170) profile and dimensions.
10. The brush manufacturing machine according to claim 1, wherein the heating station (140) comprises a heating element having a heating plate shaped to match the bristle carrier (170) profile and dimensions.
11. The brush manufacturing machine according to claim 1, wherein the unloading station (150) comprises a presence sensor and a pick-and-place gripper.
12. The brush manufacturing machine according to any one of claims 1 to 11, comprising a network of sensors and actuators controlled by the logic controller system that enables a pre-programmed sequence of processing steps
13. A system for manufacturing brushes comprising: a rotary transportation mechanism (160); a bristle carrier loading station (110); one or more bristle dispensing station (120a-d) comprising a bristle feed mechanism (200), a bristle tuft picker (240), and a bristle plant feeder (250), that plants high-density and short length bristle tufts on a bristle carrier (170) with fine pitch openings; an ultrasonic fusion station (130); a heating station (140); an unloading station (150); and a logic controller system for providing programmed commands, controlling the machine sequence and monitoring the feedback of operating conditions at every station through a network of sensors and actuators .
14. The system for manufacturing brushes according to claim 13, comprising a network of sensors and actuators controlled by the logic controller system that enables a pre programmed sequence of processing steps.
