[0002] In stamping die production line equipment, various types of dies need to be stored. To save storage space, the die set is usually stacked in two layers. When the number of production dies is an even number, the die set can be balanced and can be stored on the upper or lower layer at will; when the number of production dies is an odd number, empty stations are needed to supplement them. Considering the structure and cost issues, there are no dies on the empty stations, which makes the die set unable to maintain balance. Therefore, there are two ways to store the die set:

[0003] In the first method, when double-layer stacking is performed, only the mold set that can maintain balance can be stored in the lower layer.

[0026] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0027] It should be noted that if the embodiments of the present invention involve directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, and back), the directional indications are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components in a certain specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0028] In addition, if there are descriptions involving "first", "second", etc. in the embodiments of the utility model, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features limited to "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In addition, if "and / or" or "and / or" appears in the full text, its meaning includes three parallel solutions. Taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes solution A, solution B, or solutions that satisfy both A and B. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in this field to implement. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the utility model.

[0029] In stamping die production line equipment, various types of dies need to be stored. To save storage space, the die set is usually stacked in two layers. When the number of production dies is an even number, the die set can be balanced and can be stored on the upper or lower layer at will; when the number of production dies is an odd number, empty stations are needed to supplement them. Considering the structure and cost issues, there are no dies on the empty stations, which makes the die set unable to maintain balance. Therefore, there are two ways to store the die set:

[0030] In the first method, when double-layer stacking is performed, only the mold set that can maintain balance can be stored in the lower layer. Since the mold set cannot maintain balance and can only be stored in the upper layer, but not in the lower layer, when switching production, the mold set with an empty station in the upper layer must be moved away in advance before using the mold set in the lower layer, which is not conducive to improving production efficiency;

[0031] In the second method, the mold group cannot maintain balance and can only be stored in a single layer, which increases the demand for mold storage space and is not conducive to factory floor planning.

[0032] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a mold empty station support and a press machine, aiming to solve the problem of how to enable an odd number of molds to be stored in the lower layer.

One end of the first support member 21 is connected to the base plate 1, and the other end of the first support member 21 is rotatably connected to the second support member 22. The second support member 22 has a support position 221 and a folding position 222. The second support member 22 can reciprocate between the support position 221 and the folding position 222. When the second support member 22 is located at the support position 221, the end of the second support member 22 away from the first support member 21 is used to abut against the mold group 400.

[0034] In the embodiment of the utility model, when the number of molds 300 is an odd number, there is an empty station. In order to allow the mold 300 to be stored in the lower layer when double-layered, a support mechanism 2 is set on the empty station, so that the support mechanism 2 and the mold 300 can respectively generate two support points for the upper layer mold group 400, so that when an odd number of molds 300 are set in the lower layer, the upper layer mold group 400 can maintain balanced support; specifically, a first station 111 and a second station 112 are set on the bottom plate 1, and the first station 111 is used to The mold 300 is placed, and the support mechanism 2 is set corresponding to the second workstation 112. One end of the first support member 21 is connected to the base plate 1, and the other end of the first support member 21 is rotatably connected to the second support member 22. The second support member 22 has a support position 221 and a folding position 222.

When the second support member 22 is located at the folding position 222, it is convenient for carrying the mold 300.

[0035] The technical solution of the present invention balances the mold 300 with an empty workstation by adopting a support mechanism 2, so that the support mechanism 2 and the mold 300 can respectively generate two support points for the upper mold group 400, so that when an odd number of molds 300 are arranged on the lower layer, the upper mold group 400 can also maintain balanced support, thereby realizing double-layer stacking of the mold group 400, reducing storage space, and being more conducive to factory space planning; and by adopting the support mechanism 2, the mold 300 does not need to be stored in a designated position or in sequence, and the mold 300 can be stored arbitrarily on the upper layer or the lower layer according to production requirements, so that when switching production, there is no need to open the upper mold 300 with an empty workstation in advance, which saves time for replacing the mold 300 and effectively improves production efficiency.
