Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of mesh cable tray processing technology, specifically to a production process for an automated production equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, existing mesh cable trays generally consist of multiple parallel transverse ribs and multiple parallel U-shaped longitudinal ribs, with the transverse ribs spaced apart on the outer side of the U-shaped structure. During processing, this type of mesh cable tray typically requires first using automated welding equipment to weld the transverse and longitudinal ribs into a mesh structure. Then, depending on the required model, the longitudinal ribs on the mesh panel are cut to obtain a suitable size. Next, manual trimming is required around the edges of the mesh panel, trimming off excess portions from both ends of the transverse and longitudinal ribs to obtain a standard-sized mesh panel. Finally, an automatic bending machine bends the standard-sized mesh panel to form the mesh cable tray, bending the longitudinal ribs into a U-shaped structure. As can be seen from the above, the entire processing of the mesh cable tray cannot be carried out on a single set of equipment; the processing steps are complex, requiring manual trimming, resulting in a large workload and low efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0003] One objective of this application is to provide a production process for an automated production equipment that can automatically trim the edges of a stencil, automatically transport the trimmed stencil to an automatic bending machine for bending, and is simple to operate, highly automated, and has high processing efficiency.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is: a production process for an automated production equipment, including a first feeding step, a second feeding step, a third feeding step, a first trimming step, and a second trimming step;

[0005] First feeding step: First, place the mesh plate on the first conveying mechanism, so that the longitudinal ribs on the mesh plate are parallel to the conveying direction of the first conveying mechanism, and then convey the mesh plate through the first conveying mechanism in a direction parallel to the longitudinal ribs.

[0006] First trimming step: When the transverse ribs on the mesh plate move to the position of the first trimming mechanism, the first conveying mechanism stops conveying the mesh plate and trims both ends of the transverse ribs through the first trimming mechanism until the part of the transverse ribs that exceeds the longitudinal ribs is cut off. Then the first conveying mechanism continues to convey the mesh plate.

[0007] The second feeding step: The mesh plate is conveyed to the second conveyor through the first conveyor mechanism, and then conveyed along the direction parallel to the transverse ribs through the second conveyor mechanism;

[0008] The second trimming step: When the longitudinal ribs on the mesh plate move to the position of the second trimming mechanism, the second conveying mechanism stops conveying the mesh plate and trims both ends of the longitudinal ribs through the second trimming mechanism until the part of the longitudinal ribs that exceeds the transverse ribs is cut off. Then the second conveying mechanism continues to convey the mesh plate.

[0009] The third feeding step: The mesh is conveyed to the third conveyor via the second conveyor mechanism, and then automatically conveyed to the automatic bending machine via the third conveyor mechanism for bending.

[0010] Preferably, in the first feeding step, the mesh plate is first placed on the first track, and the longitudinal ribs are parallel to the conveying direction of the first track; then the mesh plate is pushed to move in a direction parallel to the transverse ribs by the first positioning component, so as to position the mesh plate in a direction parallel to the transverse ribs; finally, the mesh plate is pulled to move in a direction parallel to the longitudinal ribs by the first traction component.

[0011] Preferably, in the first feeding step, when the mesh plate is placed on the first conveying mechanism, the transverse ribs are located above the longitudinal ribs; in the second feeding step, the first conveying mechanism first conveys the mesh plate to the flanging mechanism, the flanging mechanism flips the mesh plate 180° and then conveys it to the second conveying mechanism, so that the longitudinal ribs are located above the transverse ribs.

[0012] Preferably, in the second feeding step, the screen is conveyed to the second track on the second conveying mechanism by the flanging mechanism. The second track rotates upward to an inclined state, so that the screen slides down the second track under the action of gravity until it contacts the second positioning component. The second positioning component then pushes the screen to move in a direction parallel to the longitudinal ribs. After the screen is positioned in a direction parallel to the longitudinal ribs, the second track rotates downward to a horizontal state, so that the screen is pulled by the second traction component to move in a direction parallel to the transverse ribs.

[0013] Preferably, in the second feeding step, when the screen slides down the second track due to gravity until the longitudinal ribs on the screen contact the baffle, the second positioning component moves in a direction parallel to the longitudinal ribs until it contacts the transverse ribs.

[0014] Preferably, in the second feeding step, after the mesh plate is positioned in the direction parallel to the longitudinal ribs, the pressing component is first controlled to move downward to contact the mesh plate, thereby restricting the mesh plate from moving in the direction parallel to the longitudinal ribs. Then the second positioning component moves to separate from the transverse ribs to avoid interference between the second positioning component and the longitudinal ribs.

[0015] Preferably, in the second feeding step, after the mesh plate is positioned in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib, the lifting cylinder on the clamping assembly first drives the first frame to move downward, so that the annular groove on the outer ring surface of the clamping wheel presses against a transverse rib, thereby enabling the mesh plate to move in a direction parallel to the transverse rib, but not in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib; when the longitudinal rib moves to the position of the clamping wheel, the clamping wheel moves upward and compresses the elastic element between the first frame and the second frame until the longitudinal rib crosses the clamping wheel, the elastic element forces the second frame to move downward, so that the annular groove re-contacts the transverse rib.

[0016] Preferably, in the second feeding step, after the mesh plate is positioned in the direction parallel to the longitudinal ribs, the second track first rotates horizontally by 90° and then rotates downward to a horizontal state, and the second traction component then pulls the mesh plate to move in the direction parallel to the transverse ribs.

[0017] Preferably, in the third feeding step, the third track is first raised and lowered to be flush with the positioning track, so that the mesh plate is pulled along the positioning track to the third track by the second traction component. Then, the third track is raised and lowered to be flush with the upper end surface of the worktable on the automatic bending machine. Finally, the third track transports the mesh plate to the automatic bending machine for bending.

[0018] Preferably, in the first trimming step, when the first trimming mechanism trims the end of the transverse rib, the base on the first trimming mechanism is first controlled to slide downward toward the mesh plate, so that the gap between the support platform on the base and the mesh plate increases. Then, the mesh plate is conveyed in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib, so that the mesh plate moves between the support platform and the cutter. Next, the base is controlled to slide upward toward the mesh plate until the positioning groove on the support platform contacts the outer longitudinal rib. Then, the cutter is controlled to reciprocate once to cut off the part of the transverse rib that extends beyond the longitudinal rib. The angle between the cutting surface of the cutter and the horizontal plane is α, and 45°≤α<90°.

[0019] Preferably, in the second trimming step, when the second trimming mechanism trims the ends of the longitudinal ribs, the base on the second trimming mechanism is first controlled to slide downwards towards the mesh plate, increasing the gap between the support platform on the base and the mesh plate. Then, the mesh plate is conveyed in a direction parallel to the transverse ribs, so that the mesh plate moves between the support platform and the cutter. Next, the base is controlled to slide upwards towards the mesh plate until the positioning groove on the support platform contacts the outer transverse rib. Then, the cutter is controlled to reciprocate once to cut off the portion of the longitudinal rib that extends beyond the transverse rib. The angle between the cutting surface of the cutter and the horizontal plane is α, and 45°≤α<90°.

[0020] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this application are as follows: When processing mesh cable trays using this automated production equipment, the mesh sheet is simply conveyed to the first conveying mechanism, which then conveys the mesh sheet along a direction parallel to the longitudinal ribs. The first trimming mechanisms on both sides of the first conveying mechanism trim the ends of the transverse ribs. Next, the first conveying mechanism continues to convey the mesh sheet to the second conveying mechanism, which conveys the mesh sheet along a direction parallel to the transverse ribs. The second trimming mechanisms on both sides of the second conveying mechanism then trim the ends of the longitudinal ribs. Immediately afterward, the second conveying mechanism continues to convey the mesh sheet to the third conveying mechanism, which conveys the mesh sheet along a direction parallel to the longitudinal ribs to the automatic bending machine. The automatic bending machine then bends the mesh sheet to form the mesh cable tray. The entire process described above is simple to operate, highly automated, and highly efficient.

[0042] The present application will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0043] In the description of this application, it should be noted that directional terms such as "center," "lateral," "longitudinal," "length," "width," "thickness," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," "outer," "clockwise," and "counterclockwise," etc., indicate the orientation and positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. These terms are used only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. They should not be construed as limiting the specific scope of protection of this application. The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. The terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, in the specification and claims of this application, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products, or devices.

[0044] Reference Figure 1 One embodiment of this application provides an automated production equipment, including a first conveying mechanism 1, a second conveying mechanism 2, a third conveying mechanism 3, at least two first trimming mechanisms 4, and at least two second trimming mechanisms 5; the first conveying mechanism 1, the second conveying mechanism 2, and the third conveying mechanism 3 are connected in sequence, the at least two first trimming mechanisms 4 are respectively disposed on both sides of the first conveying mechanism 1, and the at least two second trimming mechanisms 5 are respectively disposed on both sides of the second conveying mechanism 2; the first conveying mechanism 1 is used to convey the mesh plate 100 in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102, so as to trim the two ends of the transverse rib 101 on the mesh plate 100 by the first trimming mechanism 4; the second conveying mechanism 2 is used to convey the mesh plate 100 in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101, so as to trim the two ends of the longitudinal rib 102 on the mesh plate 100 by the second trimming mechanism 5; after trimming is completed, the third conveying mechanism 3 is used to convey the mesh plate 100 to the automatic bending machine 200 in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102.

[0045] During the processing of the mesh cable tray, the mesh plate 100 is conveyed to the first conveying mechanism 1 and conveyed along the direction parallel to the longitudinal ribs 102 by the first conveying mechanism 1, thereby trimming the two ends of the transverse ribs 101 by the first trimming mechanism 4 on both sides of the first conveying mechanism 1; then, the first conveying mechanism 1 continues to convey the mesh plate 100 to the second conveying mechanism 2 and conveys the mesh plate 100 along the direction parallel to the transverse ribs 101 by the second conveying mechanism 2, thereby trimming the two ends of the longitudinal ribs 102 by the second trimming mechanism 5 on both sides of the second conveying mechanism 2; immediately afterward, the second conveying mechanism 2 continues to convey the mesh plate 100 to the third conveying mechanism 3 and conveys the mesh plate 100 along the direction parallel to the longitudinal ribs 102 by the third conveying mechanism 3, thereby bending the mesh plate 100 to form the mesh cable tray by the automatic bending machine 200. As can be seen from the above, the automatic production equipment can automatically trim the edges of the wire mesh 100 and automatically transport the trimmed wire mesh 100 to the automatic bending machine 200 for bending. The whole process is simple to operate, highly automated, and has high processing efficiency.

[0046] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments of this application, the first conveying mechanism 1 includes a first frame 11, a first track 12, a first positioning component 13, and a first traction component 14. The first track 12, the first positioning component 13, and the first traction component 14 are all disposed on the first frame 11. The first positioning component 13 is used to push the mesh plate 100 on the first track 12 to move in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101 until the two ends of the transverse rib 101 are respectively aligned with the two first trimming mechanisms 4. The second traction component 24 is used to pull the mesh plate 100 to move in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. When the mesh plate 100 is placed or conveyed to the first track 12, and the direction of the longitudinal rib 102 is parallel to the conveying direction of the first conveying mechanism 1, the mesh plate 100 is pushed to move in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101 by the first positioning component 13, so as to position the mesh plate 100 in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101; after positioning, the mesh plate 100 is pulled to move in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102 by the first traction component 14, so that the two ends of the transverse rib 101 are automatically trimmed by the first trimming mechanism 4 on both sides of the first conveying mechanism 1.

[0047] This application does not limit the specific structure of the first positioning component 13, as long as it can push the mesh plate 100 to move in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101. A specific structure is provided below for reference: [Refer to...] Figure 4The first positioning component 13 includes a push plate 131 and a first telescopic member 132. The first telescopic member 132 is disposed on the first frame 11 and is used to drive the push plate 131 to push the mesh plate 100 to move in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101. By providing at least one first positioning component 13 of this structure on each side of the first track 12, the mesh plate 100 can be positioned in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101. The first telescopic member 132 itself is prior art, such as a cylinder or hydraulic cylinder.

[0048] This application does not limit the specific structure of the first traction component 14, as long as it can enable the traction mesh plate 100 to move along a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. A specific structure is provided below for reference: [Refer to...] Figure 5 The first traction assembly 14 includes a support plate 141, a sliding seat 142, a drive member 143, a lifting member 144, and a clamping member 145. The support plate 141 is disposed on the first frame 11, and the sliding seat 142 is slidably connected to the support plate 141 in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. The drive member 143 is disposed on the support plate 141 and is used to drive the sliding seat 142 to slide. The clamping member 145 is connected to the sliding seat 142 through the lifting member 144. When the lifting member 144 drives the clamping member 145 to move upward, the clamping member 145 is used to clamp the transverse rib 101, thereby causing the mesh plate 100 to move synchronously with the sliding seat 142, so as to realize the conveying of the mesh plate 100 in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. It should be noted that the sliding installation method of the sliding seat 142 is existing technology, such as sliding positioning by means of a slider rail; the driving component 143 itself is also existing technology, such as a conveyor belt, a lead screw drive mechanism, etc.; the lifting component 144 itself is existing technology, such as a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, an electric telescopic rod, etc.

[0049] This application does not limit the specific structure of the clamping member 145; the following is only one specific structure for reference: (Refer to...) Figure 2 and Figure 5 The clamping member 145 includes a base plate 1451 and two clamping arms 1452. The base plate 1451 is disposed at the upper end of the lifting member 144. The lower ends of the two clamping arms 1452 are spaced apart on the base plate 1451 in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. The distance between the two clamping arms 1452 is adapted to the outer diameter of the transverse rib 101, so that the two clamping arms 1452 can clamp the transverse rib 101. The upper ends of the two clamping arms 1452 are suitable for being chamfered or rounded, so that the distance between the upper ends of the two clamping arms 1452 increases from bottom to top, thereby making it easier to clamp onto the transverse rib 101.

[0050] This application does not limit the specific structure of the first track 12. With the cooperation of the first traction component 14, the first track 12 only needs to support the mesh plate 100. The following is just one specific structure for reference: [Refer to...] Figure 3 The first track 12 may also include a conveying section 121 and a supporting section 122. The end of the conveying section 121 is connected to the beginning of the supporting section 122, so that the mesh plate 100 can be conveyed along the direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102 through the conveying section 121. When the mesh plate 100 moves to the end of the conveying section 121, the mesh plate 100 is then pulled by the first traction component 14 to continue moving along the supporting section 122. Compared with directly pulling the mesh plate 100 by the first traction component 14, this arrangement helps to reduce the movement range of the first traction component 14. Since the lifting component 144 needs to be connected to pipelines when it is a cylinder or hydraulic cylinder, and needs to be connected to a power line when it is an electric telescopic rod, the longer the movement range of the first traction component 14, the longer the length of the pipeline or power line that needs to be reserved, and the more difficult the wiring is. That is to say, the shorter the movement range of the first traction component 14, the shorter the length of the pipeline or power line that needs to be reserved, and the simpler the wiring is. Among them, the conveying section 121 is a belt conveyor structure, and the two ends of the supporting section 122 are bent downward.

[0051] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 6 In some embodiments of this application, to ensure that when the first trimming mechanism 4 trims both ends of the transverse rib 101, the longitudinal rib 102 is located below the transverse rib 101; and when the second trimming mechanism 5 trims both ends of the longitudinal rib 102, the transverse rib 101 is located below the longitudinal rib 102; the automatic production equipment also includes a flanging mechanism 6, which is disposed between the first conveying mechanism 1 and the second conveying mechanism 2; when the first conveying mechanism 1 conveys the mesh plate 100, the longitudinal rib 102 is located below the transverse rib 101; when the first conveying mechanism 1 conveys the mesh plate 100 to the flanging mechanism 6, such as Figure 8 As shown, the flanging mechanism 6 is used to flip the mesh plate 100 by 180° and then convey it to the second conveying mechanism 2, so that the transverse rib 101 is located below the longitudinal rib 102.

[0052] Reference Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8In some embodiments of this application, the flanging mechanism 6 includes a fixed frame 61, a conveying track 62, and a flipping member 63. The fixed frame 61 is disposed between the first conveying mechanism 1 and the second conveying mechanism 2. The conveying track 62 is disposed on the fixed frame 61 and is used to convey the mesh plate 100 in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. The flipping member 63 is rotatably disposed on the fixed frame 61 or the conveying track 62. The rotation axis of the flipping member 63 is parallel to the axis of the transverse rib 101, and the flipping member 63 is used to clamp the mesh plate 100 on the conveying track 62 and flip it 180°. When the first conveying mechanism 1 conveys the mesh plate 100 to the conveying track 62, the transverse rib 101 is above the longitudinal rib 102. When the conveying track 62 conveys the mesh plate 100 to the position of the flipping member 63, the mesh plate 100 is clamped and flipped 180° by the flipping member 63, and then the mesh plate 100 is conveyed to the second track 22 by the conveying track 62, that is, the longitudinal rib 102 is above the transverse rib 101. Among them, the conveyor track 62 is a belt conveyor structure.

[0053] Reference Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments of this application, the flipping component 63 includes a turntable 631 and at least two clamping rods 632. The turntable 631 is rotatably mounted on the fixed frame 61 or the conveying track 62, and the rotation axis of the turntable 631 is parallel to the axis of the transverse rib 101. One end of each clamping rod 632 is spaced apart along the circumference of the turntable 631, and a V-shaped structure is formed between each pair of adjacent clamping rods 632. When the V-shaped structure rotates with the turntable 631 to face the first conveying mechanism 1, and the conveying track 62 conveys the mesh plate 100 into the interior of the V-shaped structure, the V-shaped structure rotates with the turntable 631 to face the second conveying mechanism 2, thereby causing the mesh plate 100 inside the V-shaped structure to flip 180° and then fall back onto the conveying track 62. Figure 8 As shown, when the turntable 631 rotates until one of the two adjacent clamping rods 632 moves to below the conveying track 62 and the other clamping rod 632 moves to above the conveying track 62, the conveying track 62 can convey the mesh plate 100 into the V-shaped structure; then the turntable 631 is driven to rotate until the two clamping rods 632 clamp the mesh plate 100 and rotate it 180°, after which the mesh plate 100 falls back onto the conveying track 62, and the conveying track 62 can continue to convey the mesh plate 100 to the second track 22 (as shown). Figure 13(As shown). Because a V-shaped structure is formed between each pair of adjacent clamping rods 632, the distance between the distal ends of the two adjacent clamping rods 632 is increased, facilitating the movement of the mesh plate 100 into the V-shaped structure. On the other hand, the distance between the proximal ends of the two adjacent clamping rods 632 is decreased. Therefore, during the flanging process of the mesh plate 100, the proximal ends of the two clamping rods 632 can always support the mesh plate 100, which is equivalent to the mesh plate 100 rotating around the proximal ends of the two clamping rods 632, thus preventing significant swaying of the mesh plate 100 during the flanging process. The rotatable installation method of the turntable 631 is existing technology; for example, the turntable 631 is mounted via a shaft and bearings and driven by a motor.

[0054] Reference Figure 9 and Figure 10In some embodiments of this application, the second conveying mechanism 2 includes a second frame 21, a second track 22, a second positioning component 23, and a second traction component 24. The second track 22 is rotatably mounted on the second frame 21, the second positioning component 23 is mounted on the second track 22, and the second traction component 24 is mounted on the second frame 21. When the mesh plate 100 moves to the second track 22, the second track 22 rotates upward to an inclined state, so that the mesh plate 100 slides along a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102 under the action of gravity until it contacts the second positioning component 23. The second positioning component 23 is used to push the mesh plate 100 to move along a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102 until the two ends of the longitudinal rib 102 are aligned with the two second trimming mechanisms 5 respectively. The second traction component 24 is used to pull the mesh plate 100 to move along a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101. In other words, when the second track 22 rotates upward to an inclined state, the mesh plate 100 automatically slides along the second track 22 towards the side with the second positioning component 23 under its own gravity. Then, the second positioning component 23 pushes the mesh plate 100, which can be positioned in the direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. After positioning, the second track 22 is controlled to rotate downward to a horizontal state so that the mesh plate 100 can be pulled along the direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102 by the second traction component 24, thereby trimming the two ends of the longitudinal rib 102 by the second trimming mechanism 5 on both sides of the second conveying mechanism 2. This single-sided positioning direction eliminates the need for second positioning components 23 on both sides of the second track 22, thus reducing the quantity requirement and control difficulty of the second positioning components 23. Furthermore, since the lengths of the longitudinal ribs 102 corresponding to different models of mesh cable trays vary, when processing different models of mesh cable trays, only the spacing between the two opposing second trimming mechanisms 5 needs to be adjusted, without any adjustment to the second positioning components 23. Otherwise, if second positioning components 23 are set on both sides of the second track 22, when processing different models of mesh cable trays, due to the change in the length of the longitudinal ribs 102 on the mesh plate 100, not only must the spacing between the two opposing second trimming mechanisms 5 be adjusted, but also the movement amplitude of the second positioning component 23 on at least one side of the second track 22 needs to be adjusted to adapt to the change in the length of the longitudinal ribs 102.

[0055] Reference Figure 13 and Figure 14 In some embodiments of this application, when the flanging mechanism 6, the second track 22, and the second trimming mechanism 5 are located on a line (e.g. Figure 1As shown, the second traction assembly 24 is disposed on the side of the second frame 21 away from the first conveying mechanism 1 (i.e., the flanging mechanism 6). Two second trimming mechanisms 5 are respectively disposed on both sides of the second traction assembly 24. The second track 22 is rotatably disposed on the second frame 21. When the mesh plate 100 moves to the second track 22, the second track 22 rotates upward to an inclined state until the mesh plate 100 slides along a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102 under the action of gravity until it contacts the second positioning assembly 23. At this point, the second track 22 rotates horizontally by 90° and downward to a horizontal state, so that the two ends of the longitudinal rib 102 are respectively aligned with the second trimming mechanism 5. In this case, a single-sided positioning method can also be adopted. That is, when the mesh plate 100 moves to the second track 22, the second track 22 rotates upward to an inclined state, so that the mesh plate 100 slides downward along the direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102 under the action of gravity, until the second positioning component 23 on one side of the second track 22 positions the mesh plate 100 in the direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. Then the second track 22 rotates horizontally by 90° and downward to a horizontal state, so that the two ends of the longitudinal rib 102 are aligned with the second trimming mechanism 5 respectively. It should be noted that when the second track 22 is located below the conveyor track 62 in a horizontal state, that is, when the second track 22 rotates horizontally, it does not interfere with the conveyor track 62. In this case, the order of rotating the second track 22 horizontally by 90° and rotating it downwards to a horizontal state does not need to be distinguished. However, when the second track 22 is level with the conveyor track 62 in a horizontal state, that is, the second track 22 will inevitably interfere with the conveyor track 62 during the horizontal process. In this case, the second track 22 needs to first rotate horizontally by 90° in an inclined state (that is, the end of the second track 22 closer to the conveyor track 62 is higher than the conveyor track 62) and then rotate downwards to a horizontal state to prevent the second track 22 from interfering with the conveyor track 62.

[0056] This application does not limit the installation method of the second track 22, which can rotate vertically or horizontally. For example, Figure 10 As shown, a geared motor 221 is installed on the second frame 21. The geared motor 221 drives the rotating frame 222 to rotate horizontally. The second track 22 is rotatably mounted on the rotating frame 222 via bearings and bearing seats. The rotating frame 222 is also equipped with a drive cylinder 223. The extension end of the drive cylinder 223 is provided with a pin hole. The pin hole is installed in the strip hole on the lower side of the second track 22 by a pin. When the drive cylinder 223 extends or retracts, it can drive the second track 22 to rotate upward or downward. During the up-and-down rotation of the second track 22, the pin slides adaptively in the strip hole to avoid motion interference. Alternatively, the lower end of the drive cylinder 223 is hinged to the rotating frame 222, and the upper end of the drive cylinder 223 is hinged to the second track 22.

[0057] Reference Figure 9 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 In some embodiments of this application, the second conveying mechanism 2 further includes a baffle 25, which is disposed on one side of the second track 22. When the second track 22 rotates upward to an inclined state, and the mesh plate 100 slides along a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102 under the action of gravity to contact the baffle 25, the second positioning component 23 moves along a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102 to contact the transverse rib 101. Without the baffle 25, the large weight of the mesh plate 100 means that when it automatically slides down to contact the second positioning component 23 under gravity, it will inevitably cause a significant impact on the second positioning component 23, which may reduce its positioning accuracy and shorten its service life. However, with the baffle 25, when the mesh plate 100 slides down automatically under gravity, the longitudinal rib 102 on the mesh plate 100 first contacts the baffle 25, thus limiting the mesh plate 100 from continuing to slide down. That is, after the baffle 25 offsets the impact of the mesh plate 100, the second positioning component 23 is controlled to move in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102 until it contacts the transverse rib 101, so as to push the transverse rib 101 (i.e., the mesh plate 100) to move in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102, thereby achieving positioning of the mesh plate 100 in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. Furthermore, since the second positioning component 23 is used to push the transverse rib 101 to move, that is, to achieve positioning through the outermost transverse rib 101 of the mesh plate 100, the positioning accuracy between the transverse rib 101 and the second trimming mechanism 5 is improved, thereby facilitating the second trimming mechanism 5 to more accurately cut off the portion of the longitudinal rib 102 that extends beyond the transverse rib 101. In addition, when the second track 22 rotates downward to a horizontal state again, and the second traction component 24 pulls the mesh plate 100 to move in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101, the second positioning component 23 moves away from the mesh plate 100 to prevent motion interference between the longitudinal rib 102 and the second positioning component 23.

[0058] It should be noted that the specific structure of the second traction component 24 is the same as that of the first traction component 14 (e.g., Figure 5 and Figure 10 As shown in the image, it will not be elaborated upon here.

[0059] This application does not limit the specific structure of the second positioning component 23, as long as it can push the mesh plate 100 to move in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. The following is only one specific structure for reference: (Refer to...) Figure 10 and Figure 11 The second positioning component 23 includes a push rod 231 and a second telescopic member 232. The second telescopic member 232 is disposed on the second track 22 and is used to drive the push rod 231 to move in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. Figure 9 As shown, since push rod 231 needs to push transverse rib 101, that is, push rod 231 cannot contact the end of longitudinal rib 102, therefore, under the action of this rod-shaped structure of push rod 231, when the mesh plate 100 slides down, the probability of the end of longitudinal rib 102 contacting push rod 231 can be reduced.

[0060] Reference Figure 9 and Figure 10 In some embodiments of this application, in order to avoid the end of the longitudinal rib 102 from contacting the push rod 231, the second conveying mechanism 2 further includes a pushing component 27. The pushing component 27 is disposed on the second track 22. The pushing component 27 is used to push the mesh plate 100 to move on the second track 22 in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101, that is, in the same direction as the second traction component 24 tractions the mesh plate 100. Even if the diameter of the push rod 231 is small, if the mesh plate 100 is not positioned well on the second track 22, the end of the longitudinal rib 102 may still contact the push rod 231 after the mesh plate 100 slides down, which will cause operational failure and require manual intervention. However, under the action of the push assembly 27, even if the mesh plate 100 is not positioned well on the second track 22, the push assembly 27 can first push the mesh plate 100 to move along the second track 22 in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101, so as to position the mesh plate 100 in the direction parallel to the transverse rib 101, and then control the second track 22 to rotate upward to an inclined state, thereby avoiding the end of the longitudinal rib 102 from contacting the push rod 231. In addition, it is also convenient to achieve the positioning between the mesh plate 100 (i.e., the longitudinal rib 102) and the second traction assembly 24.

[0061] This application does not limit the specific structure of the pusher assembly 27; the following is only one specific structure for reference: (Refer to...) Figure 10 The pushing assembly 27 includes a pushing plate 271 and a third telescopic member 272. The third telescopic member 272 is disposed on the lower side of the second track 22 to avoid interference with the mesh plate 100. The third telescopic member 272 is used to drive the pushing plate 271 to push the mesh plate 100 to move on the second track 22 in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101.

[0062] Reference Figure 9 and Figure 10In some embodiments of this application, the second conveying mechanism 2 further includes a pressing component 26, which is movably disposed on the second track 22. When the pressing component 26 moves downward to contact the mesh plate 100, it can restrict the mesh plate 100 from sliding on the second track 22 in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. Since the second positioning component 23 only provides support and positioning for the mesh plate 100 (i.e., the transverse rib 101) on one side of the second track 22, when the second track 22 rotates back to a horizontal state, the second track 22 needs to rotate downward at a slow speed; otherwise, the mesh plate 100 on the second track 22 will be displaced, thus losing its positioning function. However, under the action of the clamping component 26, after the mesh plate 100 is positioned, the clamping component 26 is controlled to move downward to contact the mesh plate 100, thereby restricting the mesh plate 100 from moving along the second track 22 in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. Even if the second track 22 rotates downward at a relatively fast speed, it will not destroy the positioning of the mesh plate 100 in the direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. Therefore, it can ensure the accuracy of the second trimming mechanism 5 in trimming the end of the longitudinal rib 102 and is conducive to improving work efficiency. Moreover, when the clamping component 26 clamps the mesh plate 100, the second positioning component 23 can move to separate from the mesh plate 100 to release the blocking effect of the second positioning component 23 on the longitudinal rib 102. Then, when the second track 22 rotates back to the horizontal state, the second traction component 24 can immediately traction the mesh plate 100 to move along the direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102, further improving work efficiency. In addition, since the clamping component 26 only restricts the mesh plate 100 from moving in the direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102, that is, it does not restrict the mesh plate 100 from moving in the direction parallel to the transverse rib 101, the clamping component 26 keeps the mesh plate 100 pressed during the trimming process, thereby restricting the mesh plate 100 from moving in the direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102 during the trimming process, thus ensuring the accuracy of the trimming.

[0063] This application does not limit the specific structure of the clamping assembly 26; the following is only one specific structure for reference: (Refer to...) Figure 12 The clamping assembly 26 includes a first frame 261, a second frame 262, a clamping wheel 263, and an elastic element 265. The first frame 261 is movably mounted on the second track 22, and the second frame 262 is slidably connected to the first frame 261. The elastic element 265 is disposed between the first frame 261 and the second frame 262, and forces the second frame 262 to slide downward relative to the first frame 261. The clamping wheel 263 is rotatably connected to the second frame 262, and the axis of the clamping wheel 263 is parallel to the axis of the longitudinal rib 102. The outer ring surface of the clamping wheel 263 is coaxially provided with an annular groove 2631 for accommodating the transverse rib 101. Figure 9As shown, when the second frame 262 moves downward until the annular groove 2631 on the outer ring surface of the pressure wheel 263 contacts the transverse rib 101, the transverse rib 101 (i.e., the mesh plate 100) can be restricted from displacement in the direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. When the mesh plate 100 moves in the direction parallel to the transverse rib 101, the transverse rib 101 can drive the pressure wheel 263 to rotate. That is, there is rolling friction between the outer wall of the transverse rib 101 and the inner wall of the annular groove 2631, and the frictional resistance is very small. Furthermore, under the action of the elastic element 265, on the one hand, there is sufficient buffering effect between the second frame 262 and the first frame 261, so that the pressure roller 263 will not press the transverse rib 101 too tightly; on the other hand, even if the longitudinal rib 102 is above the transverse rib 101, when the mesh plate 100 moves in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101 until the longitudinal rib 102 contacts the pressure roller 263, the longitudinal rib 102 can also force the pressure roller 263 (i.e., the second frame 262) to move upward, that is, the pressure roller 263 will not obstruct the longitudinal rib 101. The rib 102 (i.e., the mesh plate 100) continues to move; after the longitudinal rib 102 crosses the clamping roller 263, the elastic element 265 forces the second frame 262 to move downward, so that the annular groove 2631 re-contacts the transverse rib 101. Based on this, by setting multiple clamping components 26, or increasing the number of clamping rollers 263 on the second frame 262, it is ensured that when the longitudinal rib 102 moves to the position of the clamping roller 263, at least two clamping rollers 263 still have annular grooves 2631 in contact with the transverse rib 101. It should be noted that this application does not limit the vertically movable installation method of the first frame 261, the vertically sliding installation method of the second frame 262, or the rotatable installation method of the clamping roller 263. For example, such as... Figure 12 As shown, the first frame 261 directly lifts the cylinder 264 and mounts it on the second track 22. The pressure wheel 263 is rotatably mounted on the second frame 262 via an axle 2632. The axle 2632 extends to the outside of the second frame 262, and a vertical groove 2611 is provided on the first frame 261, allowing the axle 2632 to slide vertically through the groove. When there is only one pressure wheel 263 on the second frame 262, the portion of the axle 2632 that slides vertically is not circular. Furthermore, the elastic element 265 is existing technology, such as a spring.

[0064] Reference Figure 15In some embodiments of this application, the third conveying mechanism 3 includes a third frame 31, a third track 32, and two L-shaped positioning tracks 33; the two positioning tracks 33 are respectively disposed on two second trimming mechanisms 5, and the two positioning tracks 33 are used to restrict the mesh plate 100 passing through the second trimming mechanism 5 to move in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102; the third track 32 is vertically disposed on the third frame 31, and when the third track 32 moves to be aligned with the positioning track 33, the second traction component 24 is used to pull the mesh plate 100 from the positioning track 33 to the third track 32 in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101; when the third track 32 moves to be flush with the upper end surface of the worktable on the automatic bending machine 200, the third track 32 is used to convey the mesh plate 100 to the worktable in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. After the ends of the longitudinal ribs 102 are trimmed, the mesh plate 100 continues to move along the positioning track 33 under the traction of the second traction component 24. The height of the third track 32 is controlled until the third track 32 is aligned with the positioning track 33, at which point the mesh plate 100 is further pulled onto the third track 32 by the second traction component 24. When the mesh plate 100 moves onto the third track 32, the height of the third track 32 is controlled again so that the third track 32 is flush with the upper surface of the worktable on the automatic bending machine 200. Then, the mesh plate 100 is automatically transported to the worktable on the automatic bending machine 200 along a direction parallel to the longitudinal ribs 102 via the third track 32, thereby automatically bending the mesh plate 100 into a mesh bridge by the automatic bending machine 200.

[0065] Reference Figure 16 In some embodiments of this application, the third track 32 includes a support 321, a conveyor belt 322, and a guide plate 323. The support 321 is vertically and flexibly mounted on the third frame 31. There are at least two conveyor belts 322, which are spaced apart along a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101. At least one guide plate 323 is provided between two adjacent conveyor belts 322. The guide plate 323 is inclined towards the positioning track 33, and its upper surface is flush with the upper surface of the conveyor belt 322. The mesh plate 100 can be automatically conveyed to the worktable along a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102 via the conveyor belts 322. Because there are gaps between adjacent conveyor belts 322, and the mesh plate 100 itself is prone to downward deformation under gravity, without the action of the guide plate 323, the end of the mesh plate 100 would be difficult to move onto each conveyor belt 322. However, under the action of the guide plate 323, even if the mesh plate 100 deforms downward, the end of the mesh plate 100 will gradually move onto each conveyor belt 322 along the guide plate 323. The height-adjustable installation method of the bracket 321 is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0066] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 9In some embodiments of this application, the specific structure of the first trimming mechanism 4 is the same as that of the second trimming mechanism 5. The following only describes the specific structure of the first trimming mechanism 4 in detail: (Refer to...) Figure 17 and Figure 18 The first trimming mechanism 4 includes a base 41 and a shearing assembly 42. The shearing assembly 42 is disposed on the base 41 and is used to trim the ends of the transverse ribs 101. The angle α between the shearing surface of the shearing assembly 42 and the horizontal plane is 45°-90°. Figure 21 and Figure 22 As shown, since the shearing surface of the shearing component 42 cannot shear the longitudinal rib 102, that is, the shearing surface of the shearing component 42 is at most tangent to the outer ring surface of the longitudinal rib 102, therefore, when the included angle α is equal to 90°, the shearing surface is vertically tangent to the outer ring surface of the longitudinal rib 102, that is, the cross-section of the transverse rib 101 is vertically tangent to the outer ring surface of the longitudinal rib 102; similarly, when the included angle α is less than 90°, the shearing surface is inclined and tangent to the outer ring surface of the longitudinal rib 102; regardless of whether the shearing surface is vertical or inclined to the longitudinal rib 102... When the outer ring surfaces are tangent, the portion of the transverse rib 101 extending beyond the longitudinal rib 102 can be cut off as much as possible, so that the end of the transverse rib 101 does not extend beyond the outer side of the longitudinal rib 102. However, when the included angle α is less than 45°, that is, at least half of the portion of the transverse rib 101 located directly above the longitudinal rib 102 is cut off, which will reduce the strength of the end of the transverse rib 101 and make it easy for the transverse rib 101 to detach from the longitudinal rib 102. Therefore, the suitable included angle α is 45°-90°.

[0067] Reference Figure 18 , Figure 21 and Figure 22 In some embodiments of this application, the shearing assembly 42 includes a base 421, a support platform 422, and a cutter 423. The base 421 is disposed on the base 41, and the support platform 422 is disposed on the base 421. The cutter 423 is slidably disposed on the base 421, and the angle between the sliding direction of the cutter 423 and the horizontal plane is equal to the angle α. During shearing, the portion to be trimmed at the end of the transverse rib 101 is placed between the cutter 423 and the support platform 422, and then the excess portion at the end of the transverse rib 101 is cut off by driving the cutter 423 to reciprocate once.

[0068] Reference Figure 21 and Figure 22In some embodiments of this application, when the end of the transverse rib 101 is trimmed, the transverse rib 101 is located above the longitudinal rib 102. Since the transverse rib 101 is located above the longitudinal rib 102, the longitudinal rib 102 can be supported by the support platform 422. That is, during shearing, the transverse rib 101 and the longitudinal rib 102 bear pressure, thus preventing the weld points between them from falling off. Otherwise, when the transverse rib 101 is located below the longitudinal rib 102, during shearing, the transverse rib 101 and the longitudinal rib 102 bear tensile force, which could easily cause the weld points between them to fall off, resulting in a weak fixation between them. Similarly, when the end of the longitudinal rib 102 is trimmed, the longitudinal rib 102 is located above the transverse rib 101, which is also the reason for providing the flanging mechanism 6.

[0069] Reference Figure 19 , Figure 20 , Figure 21 and Figure 22 In some embodiments of this application, the included angle α is less than 90°; the base 421 is slidably disposed on the base 41, and the sliding direction of the base 421 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the cutter 423; the support platform 422 and the cutter 423 are offset from each other, and the support platform 422 is provided with a positioning groove 4221; when the base 421 slides towards the upper side of the mesh plate 100, the distance between the support platform 422 and the mesh plate 100 gradually decreases until the positioning groove 4221 contacts a longitudinal rib 102 on the outer side, the positioning groove 4221 is used to restrict the corresponding longitudinal rib 102 from generating radial displacement, and the cutter 423 reciprocates once to trim the end of the transverse rib 101. When trimming the transverse ribs 101, that is, when the first conveying mechanism 1 conveys the mesh plate 100 in a direction parallel to the longitudinal ribs 102, the base 421 is first controlled to slide downwards towards the mesh plate 100. Since the included angle α is less than 90°, and the sliding direction of the base 421 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the cutter 423, the numerical gap between the support platform 422 and the mesh plate 100 will increase, that is, the upper end of the support platform 422 will not contact the mesh plate 100 (e.g., Figure 20 (As shown), so that the mesh plate 100 can automatically move with the first conveying mechanism 1 to directly above the support platform 422; otherwise, if the support platform 422 is fixed, the vertical gap between the upper end of the support platform 422 and the mesh plate 100 is very small during the conveying of the mesh plate 100. Once the mesh plate 100 undergoes downward bending deformation under its own weight or for other reasons, the longitudinal ribs 102 or transverse ribs 101 on the mesh plate 100 are prone to motion interference with the support platform 422; when the transverse rib 101 moves to the space between the cutter 423 and the support platform 422, the base 421 is then controlled to slide towards the upper side of the mesh plate 100 until the positioning groove 4221 contacts one of the outer longitudinal ribs 102 (e.g. Figure 22As shown, the positioning groove 4221 precisely limits the longitudinal rib 102, which improves the cutting accuracy and prevents the longitudinal rib 102 from shifting during the cutting process. Finally, by controlling the cutter 423 to reciprocate once, the excess part at the end of the transverse rib 101 can be cut off. Experiments have shown that the overall effect is best when the included angle α is 70°.

[0070] This application does not limit the sliding installation method of the base 421 and the sliding installation method of the cutter 423. For example, Figure 18 , Figure 19 and Figure 21 As shown, the shearing assembly 42 also includes a fixed plate 424, a guide post 425, a return spring 426, a telescopic cylinder 427, and a hydraulic cylinder 428. The base 421 achieves sliding limit with the base 41 through a slider rail, and is driven to reciprocate by the telescopic cylinder 427. The cutter 423 is set above the base 421 through the fixed plate 424. The lower end of the fixed plate 424 is provided with a guide post 425, which is slidably connected to the post hole on the base 421 along the movement direction of the cutter 423. A return spring 426 is sleeved on the guide post 425, which forces the fixed plate 424 to move upward. A hydraulic cylinder 428 is installed above the fixed plate 424. The hydraulic cylinder 428 has its telescopic end in contact with the fixed plate 424. When the telescopic cylinder 427 drives the base 421 to slide towards the lower side of the mesh plate 100, the hydraulic cylinder 428 retracts upward to prevent interference between the hydraulic cylinder 428 and the fixed plate 424. When the telescopic cylinder 427 drives the base 421 to slide towards the upper side of the mesh plate 100 until the positioning groove 4221 contacts the corresponding longitudinal rib 102 (or transverse rib 101), the hydraulic cylinder 428 extends downward, driving the fixed plate 424 (i.e., the cutter 423) to move downward. After shearing, the hydraulic cylinder 428 retracts upward, and the return spring 426 forces the fixed plate 424 to return upward.

[0071] Reference Figure 18 , Figure 19 as well as Figure 21 In some embodiments of this application, the first trimming mechanism 4 further includes a collecting component 43, which is disposed on the base 421 and is used to collect the fallen transverse ribs 101. Under the action of the collecting component 43, after the ends of the transverse ribs 101 or the ends of the longitudinal ribs 102 are trimmed, the fallen ends of the transverse ribs 101 or the longitudinal ribs 102 can be collected by the collecting component 43 for easy sorting.

[0072] Reference Figure 18 , Figure 19 as well as Figure 21In some embodiments of this application, the collection component 43 includes a baffle plate 431 and a discharge hopper 432. The baffle plate 431 is disposed on the base 421, and a collection area for collecting fallen transverse ribs 101 is formed between the baffle plate 431 and the support platform 422. The discharge hopper 432 is disposed on the base 41, with its upper end facing the lower end of the collection area. The lower port of the discharge hopper 432 extends to the outside of the base 41, so that the transverse ribs 101 in the collection area are discharged to the outside of the base 41 through the discharge hopper 432 under the action of gravity. The fallen transverse ribs 101 can be collected through the collection area formed between the baffle plate 431 and the support platform 422. Under the action of gravity, the transverse ribs 101 in the collection area can be discharged to the outside of the base 41 through the discharge hopper 432. Therefore, a collection bucket or collection basket can be placed below the lower port of the discharge hopper 432 for collection. The discharge hopper 432 can be tilted downwards in any direction to avoid interference with other structures. In addition, since the upper end of the discharge hopper 432 is located at the lower end of the collection area, even after the base 421 slides, the upper end of the discharge hopper 432 can still cover the lower end of the collection area.

[0073] Reference Figure 17 and Figure 18 In some embodiments of this application, the first trimming mechanism 4 further includes a support plate 44 and a pressure plate 45. The support plate 44 is horizontally disposed on the base 41 and arranged on both sides of the support platform 422 along the movement direction of the mesh plate 100. The pressure plate 45 is disposed on the base 41, and a gap is left between the pressure plate 45 and the support plate 44 for the mesh plate 100 to pass through. The end of the support plate 44 away from the support platform 422 is bent downward to form an inclined portion 441. The support plate 44 provides support for the mesh plate 100, preventing the outer side of the mesh plate 100 from bending downward under the action of gravity. The pressure plate 45 presses down on the mesh plate 100, preventing the mesh plate 100 from springing upward after shearing, thereby improving the movement accuracy of the mesh plate 100 on the first conveying mechanism 1 (i.e., the positioning accuracy between the mesh plate 100 and the first trimming mechanism 4). Under the action of the inclined part 441, even if the outer side of the mesh plate 100 bends and deforms downward, it will gradually move along the inclined part 441 to the material support plate 44.

[0074] The production process of the aforementioned automated production equipment includes a first feeding step, a second feeding step, a third feeding step, a first trimming step, and a second trimming step.

[0075] First feeding step: First, place the mesh plate 100 on the first conveying mechanism 1, so that the longitudinal ribs 102 are parallel to the conveying direction of the first conveying mechanism 1, and then convey the mesh plate 100 through the first conveying mechanism 1 in a direction parallel to the longitudinal ribs 102.

[0076] First trimming step: When the transverse ribs 101 on the mesh plate 100 move to the position of the first trimming mechanism 4, the first conveying mechanism 1 stops conveying the mesh plate 100 and trims both ends of the transverse ribs 101 through the first trimming mechanism 4 until the part of the transverse ribs 101 that exceeds the longitudinal ribs 102 at the end is cut off, and then the mesh plate 100 continues to be conveyed through the first conveying mechanism 1.

[0077] The second feeding step: The mesh plate 100 is conveyed to the second conveyor 2 by the first conveyor 1, and the mesh plate 100 is conveyed by the second conveyor 2 in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101.

[0078] Second trimming step: When the longitudinal rib 102 on the mesh plate 100 moves to the position of the second trimming mechanism 5, the second conveying mechanism 2 stops conveying the mesh plate 100 and trims both ends of the longitudinal rib 102 through the second trimming mechanism 5 until the part of the longitudinal rib 102 that exceeds the transverse rib 101 is cut off. Then the mesh plate 100 is conveyed again through the second conveying mechanism 2.

[0079] The third feeding step: The mesh plate 100 is conveyed to the third conveyor 3 by the second conveyor 2, and then the mesh plate 100 is automatically conveyed to the automatic bending machine 200 for bending by the third conveyor 3.

[0080] In the first feeding step, the mesh plate 100 is first placed on the first track 12, and the longitudinal rib 102 is parallel to the conveying direction of the first track 12; then the mesh plate 100 is pushed to move in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101 by the first positioning component 13, so as to position the mesh plate 100 in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101; finally, the mesh plate 100 is pulled to move in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102 by the first traction component 14.

[0081] In the first feeding step, when the mesh plate 100 is placed on the first conveying mechanism 1, the transverse rib 101 is located above the longitudinal rib 102; in the second feeding step, the first conveying mechanism 1 first conveys the mesh plate 100 to the flanging mechanism 6, the flanging mechanism 6 flips the mesh plate 100 180° and then conveys it to the second conveying mechanism 2, so that the longitudinal rib 102 is located above the transverse rib 101.

[0082] In the second feeding step, the screen plate 100 is conveyed to the second track 22 on the second conveying mechanism 2 by the flanging mechanism 6. The second track 22 rotates upward to an inclined state, so that the screen plate 100 slides down the second track 22 under the action of gravity until it contacts the second positioning component 23. The second positioning component 23 then pushes the screen plate 100 to move in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. After the screen plate 100 is positioned in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102, the second track 22 rotates downward to a horizontal state, so that the screen plate 100 is pulled to move in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101 by the second traction component 24.

[0083] In the second feeding step, when the mesh plate 100 slides down the second track 22 due to gravity until the longitudinal rib 102 on the mesh plate 100 contacts the baffle 25, the second positioning component 23 moves in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102 until it contacts the transverse rib 101.

[0084] In the second feeding step, after the mesh plate 100 is positioned in the direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102, the clamping component 26 is first controlled to move downward to contact the mesh plate 100 to restrict the mesh plate 100 from moving in the direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102. Then the second positioning component 23 moves to separate from the transverse rib 101 to avoid interference between the second positioning component 23 and the longitudinal rib 102.

[0085] In the second feeding step, after the mesh plate 100 is positioned in the direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102, the lifting cylinder 264 on the clamping assembly 26 first drives the first frame 261 to move downward, so that the annular groove 2631 on the outer ring surface of the clamping wheel 263 presses against a transverse rib 101, thereby enabling the mesh plate 100 to move in the direction parallel to the transverse rib 101, but not in the direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102; when the longitudinal rib 102 moves to the position of the clamping wheel 263, the clamping wheel 263 moves upward and compresses the elastic member 265 between the first frame 261 and the second frame 262, until the longitudinal rib 102 crosses the clamping wheel 263, the elastic member 265 forces the second frame 262 to move downward, so that the annular groove 2631 re-contacts the transverse rib 101.

[0086] In the second feeding step, after the mesh plate 100 is positioned in the direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102, the second track 22 first rotates horizontally by 90° and then rotates downward to a horizontal state. The second traction component 24 then pulls the mesh plate 100 to move in the direction parallel to the transverse rib 101.

[0087] In the third feeding step, the third track 32 is first raised and lowered to be flush with the positioning track 33, so that the mesh plate 100 is pulled along the positioning track 33 to the third track 32 by the second traction component 24. Then the third track 32 is raised and lowered to be flush with the upper end surface of the worktable on the automatic bending machine 200. Finally, the third track 32 transports the mesh plate 100 to the automatic bending machine 200 for bending.

[0088] In the first trimming step, when the first trimming mechanism 4 trims the end of the transverse rib 101, the base 421 on the first trimming mechanism 4 is first controlled to slide towards the lower side of the mesh plate 100, so that the gap between the support platform 422 on the base 421 and the mesh plate 100 increases. Then, the mesh plate 100 is conveyed in a direction parallel to the longitudinal rib 102, so that the mesh plate 100 moves between the support platform 422 and the cutter 423. Next, the base 421 is controlled to slide towards the upper side of the mesh plate 100 until the positioning groove 4221 on the support platform 422 contacts the outer longitudinal rib 102. Then, the cutter 423 is controlled to reciprocate once to cut off the part of the transverse rib 101 that extends beyond the longitudinal rib 102. The angle between the cutting surface of the cutter 423 and the horizontal plane is α, and 45°≤α<90°.

[0089] Similarly, in the second trimming step, when the second trimming mechanism 5 trims the end of the longitudinal rib 102, the base 421 on the second trimming mechanism 5 is first controlled to slide towards the lower side of the mesh plate 100, so that the gap between the support platform 422 on the base 421 and the mesh plate 100 increases. Then, the mesh plate 100 is conveyed in a direction parallel to the transverse rib 101, so that the mesh plate 100 moves between the support platform 422 and the cutter 423. Next, the base 421 is controlled to slide towards the upper side of the mesh plate 100 until the positioning groove 4221 on the support platform 422 contacts the outer transverse rib 101. Then, the cutter 423 is controlled to reciprocate once to cut off the part of the longitudinal rib 102 that extends beyond the transverse rib 101. The angle between the cutting surface of the cutter 423 and the horizontal plane is α, and 45°≤α<90°.
