Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of equipment for processing automobile parts, in particular to a non-standard aluminum profile hole opening device. Background Art

[0002] With the development of lightweight automobiles, aluminum alloy materials are increasingly used in vehicle design, especially aluminum profiles, which are characterized by light weight and good rigidity. There are two common hole-opening processes on aluminum profiles: die punching and laser cutting. The die punching equipment has low cost and high work efficiency. However, a core must be used to assist in supporting the inner cavity of the profile to avoid deformation during stamping. At the same time, since the production of profiles is based on tolerances, the use of a uniform core often forms burrs on the edge of the punching hole, or jams during the core removal process, affecting the operation. There are some non-standard or special-shaped parts, such as press-formed longitudinal beams, which have many grooves or reinforcing ribs around the longitudinal beams, which cannot be directly passed into the core; at the same time, there are many holes, especially square holes and hexagonal holes. Since the core cannot be passed through and there is no core support, the punching process cannot be used to open the hole, so laser cutting can only be used to open the hole. The equipment cost of laser cutting is high and the operation is slow. In addition, assembly line operations require multiple devices to operate simultaneously, which further increases the processing cost and affects the processing speed. Utility Model Content

[0003] The utility model provides a non-standard aluminum profile hole opening device, which can effectively realize the machining, stamping and hole opening operations of special-shaped profiles, greatly saves processing costs, and improves work efficiency and product quality.

[0004] The utility model solves the above technical problems through the following technical solutions:

[0005] A non-standard aluminum profile hole opening device comprises a workbench, a fixture, a core, a punching mechanism and a top piece mechanism, wherein the core comprises a punching layer and a supporting layer, the punching layer is arranged in front of the supporting layer, the punching mechanism is arranged on the workbench, a processing position is arranged on the workbench, the fixture is arranged beside the processing position of the workbench, the top piece mechanism is arranged on both sides of the processing position, and the top piece mechanism is inserted and moved left and right with the punching layer and the supporting layer.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The following is a further detailed description of the specific implementation of the utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the utility model.

[0019] like Figures 1 to 4 The utility model includes a workbench 1, a fixture 2, a core 3, a punching mechanism 4 and a top piece mechanism. The core 3 includes a punching layer 6 and a supporting layer 7. The punching layer 6 is arranged in front of the supporting layer 7. The punching mechanism 4 is arranged on the workbench 1. A processing position 8 is arranged on the workbench 1. The fixture 2 is arranged beside the processing position. The top piece mechanism is arranged on both sides of the processing position 8. The top piece mechanism carries the punching layer 6 and the supporting layer 7 into the workpiece cavity and moves left and right. The fixture 2 can fix the workpiece at the processing position 8 of the workbench 1, and then drive the punching layer 6 and the supporting layer 7 to be inserted into the workpiece cavity in turn through the top piece mechanism, so as to achieve the purpose of tightening the workpiece cavity. Then the punching mechanism 4 can punch the aluminum material after it is in place.

[0020] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the insertion of the support layer 7 between the punching layer 6 and the profile, two slopes 9 are provided on both sides of the rear side of the punching layer 6, and the rear side of the punching layer 6 is in an inverted trapezoidal shape. The support layer 7 includes two left-right symmetrical wedges 10, and the slopes 5 of the wedges 10 match the slopes 9. At the same time, the slopes 5 of the wedges 10 match the slopes 9, and the width of the punching layer can be controlled by controlling the length of the workpiece cavity into which the wedges 10 are inserted, thereby achieving the purpose of tightening the workpiece cavity, and at the same time, it can be applied to workpiece cavities of different sizes within the tolerance. Burrs and deformation during the punching process are greatly avoided.

[0021] In order to realize the insertion and extraction of the core 3 and facilitate the operation, when the workpiece is fixed on the processing position 8, the surface of the aluminum profile to be punched faces the front side, and the ejector mechanism includes a front push cylinder 11, a lifting cylinder 12 and two rear push cylinders 13. The lifting cylinder 12 is fixed on the workbench 1. The side of the cylinder barrel of the front push cylinder 11 is fixedly connected to the cylinder rod of the lifting cylinder 12. The cylinder rod of the front push cylinder 11 is fixedly connected to one end of the punching layer 6. The lifting cylinder 12 can drive the front push cylinder 11 and the punching layer to move forward and backward. The rear push cylinder 13 is fixed on the workbench 1, and the two rear push cylinders 13 are symmetrically installed on the left and right sides of the processing position 8. The two wedges 10 are respectively connected to the cylinder rods of the two rear push cylinders 13. The rear push cylinders 13 drive the wedges 10 on both sides to be inserted or pulled out from the two sides of the workpiece cavity.

[0022] During processing, the lifting cylinder 12 pushes the front pushing cylinder 11 and the stamping layer of the core 3 backward. After the stamping layer extends into the workpiece cavity from one side, the lifting cylinder 12 can drive the front pushing cylinder 11 and the stamping layer to be pulled forward together, and finally the stamping layer is close to the workpiece cavity; then the rear pushing cylinder 13 drives the wedges 10 on both sides to insert the stamping layer from both sides of the workpiece cavity, so that the stamping layer presses the workpiece cavity. When the punching mechanism 4 is retracted, the stamping layer and the supporting layer 7 exit the workpiece in turn according to the last-in-first-out principle, thus completing a working cycle.

[0023] A guide mechanism is also provided, which is arranged on the left and right sides of the processing position 8, and the guide mechanism includes a rectangular frame 14, which is coaxial with the workpiece, and the width of the rectangular frame 14 matches the width of the core 3. In this way, the longitudinal limitation of the stamping layer and the supporting layer 7 can be ensured, and the deviation can be reduced.

[0024] The fixture 2 clamps both ends of the workpiece and fixes the workpiece to the processing position 8, and the side of the workpiece to be punched faces the punching mechanism 4, and after the punching is completed, the workpiece is removed. A waste material removal mechanism 15 is also provided, which is arranged beside the processing position 8 to clean up the waste material from the punching.

[0025] The working process is as follows: the robot arm holds both ends of the workpiece and then places it in the processing position, and then presses the workpiece on the processing position 8. The lifting cylinder 12 pushes the front pushing cylinder 11 and the stamping layer of the core 3 backward. After the stamping layer extends into the workpiece cavity from one side, the lifting cylinder 12 can drive the front pushing cylinder 11 and the stamping layer to be pulled forward together, and finally the stamping layer is close to the workpiece cavity; then the rear pushing cylinder 13 drives the wedges 10 on both sides to insert the stamping layer from both sides of the workpiece cavity, and then expand the workpiece cavity, and then the punching mechanism 4 can punch the aluminum material in place. After the support layer 7 and the stamping layer fully expand the workpiece cavity, the gap in the workpiece cavity during traditional punching is avoided, and the stamping burrs and deformation are greatly avoided.

[0026] When the punching is completed and the punching mechanism 4 is withdrawn, the punching layer and the supporting layer 7 are sequentially withdrawn from the workpiece according to the last-in-first-out principle, and the waste cleaning operation after the waste mechanism punches is completed. This completes one work and continues the cycle.

[0027] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
