Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an actuator, in particular to a cam forced shearing mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Cold heading machine is a special mechanical equipment mainly used for batch production of nuts, bolts and other fasteners.

[0003] The overall structure of the existing cold heading machine can be divided into five parts according to its function: the main transmission mechanism, the feeding mechanism, the shearing mechanism, the cold heading forming mechanism, and the ejection and blanking mechanism. During the wire processing of the cold heading machine, the metal wire is fed into the shearing mechanism under the action of the feeding mechanism. After the shear plate of the shearing mechanism shears the metal blank of a preset length, the metal blank is then fed into the cold heading forming mechanism for plastic forming by a clamping manipulator. During this entire process, since some cold heading machines produce thinner wires and their production cycles are also faster, the feeding rhythm of their feeding mechanisms is also faster. Therefore, the shearing mechanism of the traditional structure may not be able to adapt to its shearing speed, which will seriously affect the processing efficiency and processing progress of the cold heading machine. It is necessary to provide a new shearing mechanism. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a cam forced shearing mechanism which is suitable for thin metal wires, has a fast shearing rhythm and an adjustable processing speed.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention provides a cam-forced shearing mechanism comprising a conjugate cam assembly, an anthropomorphic rocker, and a shearing device. The conjugate cam assembly comprises a conjugate main cam, a conjugate secondary cam, and a conjugate shearing cam; the shearing device comprises a shear plate and a gripping mechanism, wherein the shear plate is provided with a tool hole; a rotating shaft is connected to the middle intersection of the anthropomorphic rocker, which is connected to the shear plate; one of the rockers of the anthropomorphic rocker is a shearing rocker; the conjugate main cam and the conjugate secondary cam cooperate with the anthropomorphic rocker, so that the shearing rocker is closely attached to the shear plate and swings back and forth in and out of the tool hole; the gripping mechanism cooperates with the conjugate shearing cam, and the gripping mechanism is fixedly connected to one side of the shearing rocker that is closely attached to the shear plate. When the shearing rocker is closely attached to the shear plate and swings back and forth in and out of the tool hole under the cooperation between the conjugate cam assembly and the anthropomorphic rocker, the gripping mechanism connected to the shearing rocker also swings back and forth with the shearing rocker. When the wire is fed to the gripping mechanism, it is gripped by the gripping mechanism and then sheared into segments under the relative shearing force of the gripping mechanism and the tool hole.

[0006] A further solution is that the gripping mechanism includes a center clamping plate, the bottom end of which is provided with a gripping groove parallel to the axis of the tool hole. The center clamping plate is provided with a manipulator seat on each axial side of the gripping groove, and a manipulator is hingedly connected to the manipulator seat. The two symmetrically distributed manipulators cooperate with the gripping groove to perform the gripping action. The two manipulators and the gripping groove form three stable points to grasp and secure the wire.

[0007] A further solution is that the width of the gripping portion of the manipulator is consistent with the length of the gripping groove. The gripping groove and the manipulator must be close to the shear plate to facilitate wire shearing, and the relative alignment of the gripping groove and the manipulator is conducive to balanced force during the shearing process.

[0008] A further solution is that the manipulator is provided with a push surface at one end away from the gripping portion, the push surface being arranged beside the manipulator seat, the manipulator being arranged on the downward swinging side of the shearing rocker, the shearing rocker being provided with a push rod fixed base plate on the other side opposite to the manipulator, two push rods working in cooperation with the push surface being connected to the push rod fixed base plate, the shearing rocker being provided with push rod holes at positions corresponding to the push rods, the push rod holes being provided with an outward expansion hole on one side of the push rod fixed base plate, and a return spring being arranged in the outward expansion hole. In the working state, downward pressure is applied to the push rod fixed plate, the push rod fixed plate pushes the push rod against the push surface of the manipulator, and the gripping end of the hinged manipulator is closed towards the clamping groove under the action of the thrust, at which time the wire transported to the clamping groove is gripped by the gripping mechanism, and after the thrust on the push rod fixed plate is withdrawn, the return spring pushes the push rod fixed plate back to its original position.

[0009] A further solution is that the gripping mechanism is provided with a corner rocker on a side near the conjugate cam group, with the inner side of the corner of the corner rocker facing the gripping mechanism. An adjustment screw is connected to one end of the corner rocker, and the adjustment screw is arranged above the middle portion of the push rod fixed base plate. The opposite end of the corner rocker with the adjustment screw is hingedly connected to the shear rocker, and the shear rocker is provided with a first avoidance zone at the corner rocker position to avoid the movement of the corner rocker. The end of the corner rocker with the adjustment screw can swing up and down above the push rod fixed plate. Under the action of thrust, the corner rocker applies downward pressure to the push rod fixed plate through the adjustment screw, thereby pushing the push rod fixed plate downward to realize the gripping action of the gripping mechanism. The adjustment screw can adjust the length of its downward protrusion from the corner rocker to limit the push rod fixed plate from being pushed up by the return spring, so that the adjustment screw is always in contact with the push rod fixed plate.

[0010] A further solution is that the conjugate shear cam is provided with a pulling arm on the side close to the grabbing mechanism, and one end of the pulling arm is provided with a shear roller cooperating with the conjugate shear cam, and the other end of the pulling arm is connected to the humanoid rocker arm through a pin shaft, and the pin shaft is fixedly connected to the pulling arm and is rotatably connected to the humanoid rocker arm. The pin shaft is fixedly connected to a fixing clamp at the position of the humanoid rocker arm, and the humanoid rocker arm is provided with a second avoidance area for avoiding the rotation of the fixing clamp. A telescopic pull rod is hinged on one end of the fixing clamp, and the end of the telescopic pull rod opposite to the fixing clamp is hinged to the corner rocker arm, and the connection point between the telescopic pull rod and the corner rocker arm is on the corner of the corner rocker arm. A shear compression spring is sleeved on the telescopic pull rod, and the shear compression spring is connected with a washer on the side close to the humanoid rocker arm, and the washer is pressed on the conjugate secondary cam by the shear compression spring. The conjugate shear cam drives the pulling arm to swing back and forth, and the fixed clamp is driven by the pin shaft driven by the pulling arm to rotate back and forth. The fixed clamp pulls the corner rocker arm to swing back and forth through the telescopic pull rod. The shear spring abuts against the humanoid rocker arm through a gasket. The shear spring enables the telescopic pull rod to automatically adjust its length to adapt to the distance change of the corner rocker arm in the pulling direction. The cam-forced shearing mechanism designed in the present invention utilizes a conjugate cam group to propel a humanoid pendulum, which cooperates with a tool hole on a shear plate to perform shearing. The combination of the conjugate cam group and the humanoid pendulum stabilizes the pendulum's swing trajectory. The mechanism also incorporates a gripping mechanism to grasp the metal wire, which is also driven by the conjugate cam group. This cleverly designed, streamlined structure features a central clamping plate that abuts the shear plate, with a clamping groove formed on each side. Manipulators that cooperate with the clamping grooves are located on both sides of the central clamping plate. The clamping grooves and manipulators form a three-point, stable gripping structure. The gripping mechanism uses the humanoid pendulum to swing back and forth within and outside the tool hole, thereby forcibly shearing the metal wire. The cam-forced shearing mechanism can control the shearing speed by controlling the rotational speed of the conjugate cam group's rotating shaft. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
