Abstract: An edge band fine trimming mechanism of an edge banding machine includes a fixed seat, and a lateral feeler wheel, a top feeler wheel set and a scraper, which are disposed on the fixed seat. The lateral feeler wheel is rotatably disposed on the fixed seat. The top feeler wheel set includes a fixing member adjustably disposed on the fixed seat, and first and second top feeler wheels disposed separately, both rotatably disposed on the fixing member and located at a same predetermined height. The scraper is located between the lateral feeler wheel and the top feeler wheel set for trimming an edge of an edge band of a workpiece. Even though the workpiece has a hole, the scraper is positionally maintainable by the top feeler wheel set, that effectively reduces appearance defects of the end edge of the edge band caused in the edge trimming process.

Abstract: A glue applying mechanism of an edge banding machine includes a base, a glue applying unit and a glue quantity regulator. The base includes a glue tub. The glue applying unit is rotatably disposed on the glue tub of the base and includes a glue shaft and an obliquely glue applying member connected with the glue shaft. The glue quantity regulator is rotatably disposed on the base and includes a rotatable shaft, and a regulating plate and a blocking plate, which are connected with the rotatable shaft. The regulating plate is rotatable along with the rotatable shaft to cause edges of the regulating plate adjacent to the glue applying unit at the same time. The blocking plate is fixed to the rotatable shaft separately from the regulating plate. The above-described configuration of the glue applying mechanism is effective in controlling the applied glue quantity in thickness.

Abstract: A glue applying mechanism of an edge banding machine for applying glue to an oblique surface and a vertical surface of a workpiece includes a base including a glue tub, and a glue applying unit rotatably disposed on the glue tub and including a glue shaft and an obliquely glue applying member connected to the top end of the glue shaft and having a glue applying surface which is a tapered surface with a wide top and a narrow bottom. At least the partial top of the glue shaft and the glue applying surface are exposed outside the glue tub. The glue applying unit is rotatable to extract the glue in the glue tub to the outer surface of the glue shaft and the glue applying surface, enabling the glue to be applied to the oblique and vertical surfaces of the workpiece simultaneously by only one glue applying mechanism.

Abstract: An adjustable trimming mechanism includes a wheel module having a wheel mount and a wheel disposed on the wheel mount, and a motor module having a motor mount, a slide rail disposed on a side of the motor mount, a motor, a slider disposed on the slide rail and connected with the motor, a pull rod and a positioning member threadedly disposed on the slide rail. One of the motor and wheel mounts is located above the other. An end of the slider is connected with the pull rod so that the slider drives the motor to displace together frontward or backward when being pulled by the pull rod. Therefore, when the positioning member is loosened, the position of the motor is adjustable frontward or backward by the cooperation of the pull rod and the slider and thereby the cutter installed on the motor is adjusted simultaneously.

Abstract: A feeding system with numerically adjustable pneumatic cylinder speeds includes: a frame; an X-axis pneumatic cylinder; a Z-axis pneumatic cylinder; a feeding table connected to the pneumatic cylinders in order to be driven into motion in the X- and Z-axis directions; an X-axis detection module; a Z-axis detection module; a microcomputer; and a display screen electrically connected to the microcomputer. The microcomputer uses each detection module to determine the time interval between the instant at which the piston rod of the corresponding pneumatic cylinder passes the corresponding starting point and a subsequent instant at which the same piston rod passes the corresponding endpoint. The time intervals thus determined are defined as a duration of X-axis forward movement and a duration of Z-axis forward movement respectively. Both durations are displayed on the display screen.

Abstract: An edge banding machine having a platform, a glue applicator and, an edge band transmission mechanism for affixing an edge band to a workpiece is disclosed. The glue applicator is mounted at the platform, including a glue-applying shaft. The edge band transmission mechanism is mounted at the platform adjacent to the glue applicator, including an edge band transferring shaft disposed in parallel to the glue-applying shaft and a motor connected with the edge band transferring shaft for driving the edge band transferring shaft to rotate. The edge band transferring shaft is connected with the glue-applying shaft so that the edge band transferring shaft and the glue-applying shaft can be synchronously rotated.

Abstract: An emergency stop device for a band saw includes a brake member moveable between a standby position and an active position where the brake member firmly urges and stops a running wheel of the band saw, around which a band saw blade is looped. The brake member is held by a retainer at the standby position when the emergency stop device is inactive. When the emergency stop device is started, the retainer is separated apart from the brake member for enabling the brake member to move by an actuation of a spring member from the standby position to the active position so as to stop the cutting motion of the band saw blade.
