Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a passenger car processing tool, in particular to an automatic pulling and cutting device for a passenger car roof cover skin. Background Art
[0002] It is well known in the automotive industry that in bus design, after the structural welding of the roof (which is a structural weldment) is completed, a layer of 2mm aluminum plate (rain and snow proof, about 10 meters long and 2.2 meters wide) needs to be covered on the top of the arc. This aluminum plate is called the bus roof skin. The bus roof skin is made by pulling and cutting aluminum coils.
[0003] At present, the automotive industry uses manual operation to pull and cut the bus roof skin. That is, the staff first manually pulls the aluminum coil to the required length, and then manually measures and cuts the aluminum plate to obtain the bus roof skin. However, due to the large size of the bus roof skin (about 10 meters long and 2.2 meters wide), it takes 6-7 people to pull it out of the aluminum coil, which consumes a lot of manpower and has low work efficiency. Moreover, the manual cutting positioning is inaccurate, and the bus roof skin needs to be cut again during subsequent processing, which wastes materials. In addition, the thickness of the aluminum coil is very thin, and there are great safety hazards in the manual pulling process. Summary of the invention
