Furthermore, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components, and / or combinations thereof.

[0031] For ease of description, the words "up," "down," "left," and "right" appearing in this invention only indicate that they are consistent with the up, down, left, and right directions of the accompanying drawings themselves, and do not limit the structure. They are merely for the purpose of facilitating the description of this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.

[0032] like Figure 1-3As shown, the edge-binding machine includes a frame 1, within which a stepping component 2 and a controller are provided. The controller includes a PLC control system. A pressing component 3 and a transfer component 4 are provided on the upper part of the frame 1. A product placement fixture 5 is provided at the center of the stepping component 2. The product placement fixture 5 includes a placement plate and a detachable connector located under the placement plate. The placement plate has a connection positioning port that connects to the connector, enabling quick disassembly when replacing the placement plate. The connector is connected to the top surface of the frame 1, and the pressing component 3 is located directly above the product placement fixture 5.

[0033] like Figure 4-5As shown, the stepping assembly 2 includes several stepping mechanisms combined according to the workpiece shape requirements. From bottom to top, each stepping mechanism is provided with a limiting device 6, a lifting device 7, a telescopic device 8, a tooling mounting plate 8, and a positioning component 10. The upper part of the telescopic device 8, as well as the tooling mounting plate 8 and the positioning component 10, extend to the upper part of the frame 1 so that each stepping mechanism can perform edge-wrapping operations on the workpiece placed on the tooling 5. The limiting device 6 includes a mounting base plate 15 fixed inside the frame 1 and a lead screw double-guide rail linear module 16 mounted on the mounting base plate 15. The lead screw double-guide rail linear module 16 includes a motor, a lead screw connected to the motor, linear guide rails 34 mounted on both sides of the lead screw, a slide table sliding along the lead screw and connected to the linear guide rails 34, and a... The photoelectric detection and detection plate are mounted on the mounting base plate 15. The motor is a stepper motor. When the stepper motor starts, the slide table reciprocates along the linear guide rail 34 under the action of the lead screw. The setting of the limit device 6 realizes the adjustment of the distance between the stepper mechanisms. When multiple stepper mechanisms are combined to complete the edge wrapping, and workpieces of different specifications are processed, the distance between each stepper mechanism is set by the limit device 6, so that the lifting device 7 and the telescopic device 8 change positions at the same time. At the same time, the movement data is saved in the controller. When the adjustment data is consistent next time, it can be directly called in the system. The lifting device 7 is set on the slide table of the lead screw double guide rail linear module 16. The lifting device 7 includes a lifting cylinder 17 and a lifting platform 18 that is raised and lowered under the action of the lifting cylinder 17. The telescopic device The telescopic device 8 is horizontally arranged on the lifting platform 18.

The lifting cylinder 17 and the telescopic cylinder 19 are vertically arranged and each has a matching mounting base. The mounting base can be made by assembling several plates for fixing. The lifting platform 18 and the telescopic platform 20 have the same structure, each including two opposing linear slide rails. The linear slide rails have a sliding groove 41, and upper baffles 42 and lower baffles 43 are respectively provided at both ends. The sliding groove 41 is fixed to its corresponding mounting base. The output ends of the lifting cylinder 17 and the telescopic cylinder 19 are respectively connected to their corresponding upper baffles 42, so that when the lifting cylinder 17 or the telescopic cylinder 19 is working, the lifting... The platform 18 or telescopic platform 20 moves back and forth along the slide groove 41 under the drive of the upper baffle 42. The lifting cylinder 17 realizes the operation of wrapping the workpiece upward, and the telescopic cylinder 19 realizes the operation of wrapping the workpiece inward (forward). The output ends of the lifting cylinder 17 and the telescopic cylinder 19 are equipped with floating joints. The lower baffle 43 of the lifting platform 18 and the telescopic platform 20 are equipped with hydraulic buffers. The tooling mounting plate 8 is set on the upper baffle 42 of the telescopic platform 20, and the front end of the tooling mounting plate 8 is provided with several mounting holes for connecting the tooling. The positioning component 10 includes a positioning cylinder and a positioning block 44 connected to the output end of the positioning cylinder. Before performing the wrapping operation, the positioning cylinder is started first, and the accurate position of the workpiece is adjusted by the movement of the positioning block 44.

[0034] like Figure 6-7 As shown, the pressing assembly 3 includes a support 11, on which a touch panel 12, a pressing mechanism, and a flanging pressing mechanism are provided. The touch panel 12 is located on the side of the support 11. The pressing mechanism and the flanging pressing mechanism are an integral unit with a protective cover with an alarm light on the outside. The cover is located in front of the support 11, with the bottom facing the product and the fixture 5 placed thereon, thus stabilizing the workpiece for the stepping mechanism to perform edge wrapping. The pressing mechanism consists of a first fixing plate 21, a second fixing plate 22, a third fixing plate 23, a fourth fixing plate 24, and a fifth fixing plate 25 arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The second fixing plate 22 is fixed to the support 11 and is equipped with a pressing cylinder 26. The pressing cylinder 26 is a stroke adjustable cylinder, and its output end is connected to the third fixing plate 23. Both sides of the pressing cylinder 26 are provided with movable passages that pass through the first fixing plate 21, the second fixing plate 22, the third fixing plate 23, the fourth fixing plate 24, and the fifth fixing plate 25. The movable column 27 extends to the outer side of the first fixed plate 21 and is provided with a limit plate 45. The movable column 27 is slidably connected to the second fixed plate 22 and the fourth fixed plate 24, and is provided with linear bearings between the movable column 27 and the second fixed plate 22 and the fourth fixed plate 24.

The output end of the flange clamping cylinder 30 is connected to the fourth fixed plate 24. The flange clamping disc 31 is mounted on top of the clamping disc 29 and has a through hole for the connecting post 28 to pass through. The diameter of the flange clamping disc 31 is larger than the diameter of the clamping disc 29. When the third fixed plate 23 moves under the action of the clamping cylinder 26, the flange clamping cylinder 30 set on the third fixed plate 23 also moves accordingly. When the clamping disc 29 clamps the workpiece, the entire flange clamping mechanism moves downward with the moving column 27. At this time, the distance between the flange clamping disc 31 and the clamping disc 29 remains unchanged. When it is necessary to maintain pressure for the flange edge, the flange clamping cylinder 30 is activated. Under the action of the flange clamping cylinder 30, the fourth fixed plate 24 drives the flange clamping disc 31 connected below to press down, completing the pressure maintenance operation for the flange edge of the workpiece. Both the clamping disc 29 and the flange clamping disc 31 are provided with connection positions for connection. When the clamping disc 29 and the flange clamping disc 31 need to be replaced due to the size of the workpiece, the connection positions enable the quick installation and disassembly of the clamping disc 29 and the flange clamping disc 31.

[0035] like Figure 8-9As shown, the transfer assembly 4 includes a transfer device 13 and a suction cup device 14 mounted on the transfer device 13. The bottom surface of the suction cup device 14 is positioned opposite to the product placement fixture 5, enabling automatic loading and unloading of the workpiece. The transfer assembly 4 loads the workpiece to the product placement fixture 5 via the suction cup device 14. Under the pressing action of the pressing component 3, the stepping component 2 performs an edge-wrapping operation, and then the suction cup device 14 removes the workpiece to the unloading position. The transfer device 13 includes a fixed base 32 fixed to the frame 1. The fixed base 32 is equipped with a linear module 33, a linear guide rail 34 connected to the fixed base 32 and located below the linear module 33, and a connecting block 35 between the sliders on the linear module 33 and the linear guide rail 34. The linear module 33 is equipped with a servo motor and a photoelectric sensor. The suction cup device 14 is mounted on the connecting block 35. The suction cup device 14 includes a suction cup mounting profile 36 fixedly mounted on the connecting block 35 and suction cup mechanisms at both ends of the suction cup mounting profile 36. The suction cup mechanism includes a suction cup body and a suction cup drive component that drives the suction cup body to move longitudinally. The suction cup drive component includes a suction cup cylinder 37 and a suction cup cylinder fixing seat that fixes the suction cup cylinder 37. The output end of the suction cup cylinder 37 is connected to the suction cup body, and a connecting plate is provided between the two. The connecting plate moves up and down under the action of the suction cup cylinder 37. The suction cup body includes a suction cup 38, a plurality of suction nozzles 39 mounted on the suction cup 38, and an air pipe connector 40 for connecting the suction nozzles 39. The transfer device 13 also includes a cable chain for placing circuit wires and a cable chain connecting plate for connecting the cable chain.

[0038] 2. The positioning cylinder on the positioning component 10 in the stepper assembly 2 operates to adjust the workpiece to the appropriate position;

[0039] 3. The pressing mechanism in the pressing assembly 3 operates, and under the action of the pressing cylinder 26, the pressing disc 29 presses the workpiece. After that, the positioning cylinder on the positioning component 10 is reset.

[0040] 4. Each stepping mechanism performs edge wrapping and flanging: First, the lifting cylinder 17 runs, and the fixture at the front end of the fixture mounting plate 8 folds the workpiece upward under the action of the lifting cylinder 17. Then, the telescopic cylinder 19 runs, and the fixture at the front end of the fixture mounting plate 8 folds the workpiece forward (inward). After waiting for a certain set time, both the telescopic cylinder 19 and the lifting cylinder 17 are reset.

[0041] 5. The flanging clamping mechanism in the pressing component 3 is running. The flanging clamping cylinder 30 is started, and the flanging clamping disc 31 performs the pressing operation under the drive to realize the flanging and holding pressure on the workpiece. After a certain set time, the flanging clamping cylinder 30 and the clamping cylinder 26 are reset at the same time. At this time, the workpiece is edged.
