Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of mechanical technology, in particular to a punching device for forming a bearing retainer. Background Art

[0002] A cage (also called a bearing retainer) refers to a bearing part that partially wraps all or part of the rolling elements and moves with them. It is used to isolate the rolling elements and usually guide the rolling elements and keep them in the bearing.

[0003] Cages are generally processed by die casting or plastic casting. The die casting method requires the raw materials to be melted and poured into the die casting mold of the die casting machine to die cast the cage in one step. The casting gate is turned on the lathe, but when die casting aluminum alloy cages, large-tonnage equipment is required, and the mold design and manufacturing are complex. The cage pockets are easily damaged during die casting.

[0004] The plastic casting method is to place vacuum-dried granular engineering plastics in a barrel, heat them with a resistance wire to melt them into a semi-liquid state, and then pressurize them with a plunger or a moving screw to inject the semi-liquid raw materials from the nozzle into the forming mold of the injection molding machine. After heat preservation and cooling, the required cage is obtained. However, due to the shortcomings of the plastic itself, such as thermal deformation, aging and brittle cracking, as well as some problems in the cage structure and injection molding process, the application of plastic casting cages is limited.

Then, the circumferential direction of the bearing retainer blank is punched with holes by the punching and pressing device, and the reinforcing edges a1 on the upper and lower sides of the bearing retainer blank are squeezed and bent. Finally, the first drive motor 5 cooperates with the disengagement device to move the reinforcing edge a1 on the bearing retainer into the corresponding slide groove 64, and then the bearing retainer can be taken out from the rotating table 6.

[0030] In the present invention, the bearing retainer can be quickly formed, and compared with the traditional die-casting method or plastic casting method, it has faster processing efficiency, less equipment, and can greatly reduce costs.

[0031] Specifically, the elastic support assembly includes a compression spring 8 and a mortgage sheet 9. The mortgage sheet 9 is connected to the limiting groove 61 through the compression spring 8, and a portion of the mortgage sheet 9 extends out of the limiting groove 61.
