Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of bending machines, and more specifically, to a fully automatic bending machine. Background Art

[0002] A numerically controlled bending machine uses the equipped dies (general or special dies or tools) to bend cold metal sheets into workpieces with various geometric cross-sectional shapes. It is a sheet metal forming machine designed for cold-rolled sheet metal processing and is widely used in the sheet metal bending processing of industries such as automobile, aircraft manufacturing, light industry, shipbuilding, container, elevator, and railway vehicle.

[0003] Chinese Utility Model Patent CN210082466U discloses an electric servo bending center tool driving mechanism, including first and second servo motors, first and second transmission mechanisms, a connecting rod, a wedge-shaped tool holder, and a wedge block; the first servo motor is connected to the wedge-shaped tool holder through the first transmission mechanism and the connecting rod; a tool is installed on one side of the wedge-shaped tool holder, a wedge block is installed on the other side of the wedge-shaped tool holder, and the inclined wedge surface of the wedge-shaped tool holder cooperates with the right-angled vertical surface of the wedge block; a second servo motor is installed on the wedge-shaped tool holder, and the second servo motor is connected to the wedge block through the first transmission mechanism. The utility model has a simple and compact structure, small floor space, high cost performance, no oil leakage hidden danger, high control accuracy, energy saving and environmental protection.

[0004] Chinese Utility Model Patent CN210966511U discloses a hemming machine automatic tool changing device, including a frame; a guide rail, which is slidably arranged on the frame horizontally, and a groove is arranged on the lower side of the guide rail; a first power device, which is arranged on the frame and is used to drive the guide rail to move; a first tool, which is slidably arranged on the frame horizontally; a positioning device, a first installation cavity is arranged inside the first tool, and the positioning device is slidably arranged in the first installation cavity. When the positioning device moves to be opposite to the groove, the positioning device is used to move into the groove and clamp it so that the guide rail drives the first tool to move. Through the above technical solution, the problem that the position of the hemming tool in the prior art is not easy to adjust is solved.

[0005] The above two bending machine components each have their own characteristics. There is no bending machine main body in the prior art that has both of the above two bending machine components at the same time. Therefore, the development of bending machines still needs to be improved.

[0006] Moreover, the length of the bending tool of the existing automatic bending machine is unchangeable and is mostly the same as the maximum hemming length. When both ends of a product need to be bent while the middle part does not need to be bent, then this product cannot be bent on the automatic bending machine, making the operation of the bending machine have certain limitations.

[0007] Meanwhile, a sheet positioning device is often provided on the bending support table of a bending machine. The existing sheet positioning devices generally use two stoppers to position the parts to be bent. A single symmetric positioning mechanism can only be used for positioning symmetric-shaped sheet materials and is not applicable when the sheet material is asymmetric. When bending a complex bevel edge, due to the inability to accurately position, such parts often cannot be bent or the bending dimensions do not meet the requirements during production. At the same time, the support of the existing bending support table for the sheet material cannot meet the bending requirements. The contact surface between the table surface of the support table and the sheet material is large, which is not conducive to the movement of the sheet material on the table surface of the support table.

[0008] Chinese Utility Model Patent CN209792325U discloses a feeding and rotating manipulator, which includes a base and a material rack. Driven by a material rack driving device, the material rack can reciprocate horizontally relative to the base; the material rack is of a C-shaped structure, a horizontal moving seat is arranged on the upper part of the material rack, and an up-and-down moving seat is arranged on one side of the upper part of the material rack. The up-and-down moving seat is hinged to the horizontal moving seat through a connecting rod; an upper rotating device is arranged on the up-and-down moving seat, the upper rotating device drives and connects a pressure rod, and an upper pressing block is arranged at the lower end of the pressure rod; a lower rotating device is arranged on one side of the lower part of the material rack, and a lower pressing block is arranged on the output shaft of the lower rotating device; the lower pressing block is directly below the upper pressing block; the output shaft of the lower rotating device is coaxially arranged with the pressure rod; a material pushing device is arranged in the throat of the material rack. The manipulator of the present invention is used in cooperation with a bending main machine, and various bending processes can be realized without the need for three-dimensional movement of the sheet material. The positioning, translation and rotation of the sheet material on the workbench surface are all realized by this manipulator.

[0009] A feeding and rotating manipulator disclosed in Chinese Utility Model Patent CN209792325U only has rotating and clamping functions and cannot effectively position the sheet material.
