In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited.
[0046] In the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "mounting", "connection", "connection", "fixing" and the like should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixedly connected, or it can be detachably connected, or it can be integrated; it can be mechanically connected, or it can be electrically connected; it can be directly connected, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium; it can be the internal communication of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the embodiments of the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0047] In one embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figures 1-2As shown, a kind of automatic embossing machine of can cover is provided including oil press 10, which is provided with the mold of customizing texture inside.The oil press 10 has the working chamber 11 for carrying out texture embossing processing to can cover, and the mold is arranged in the working chamber 11, and the front side of the working chamber 11 is feed end, and the rear side is discharge end;By setting the working chamber 11 of two ends opening, so as to carry out material, and distinguish the structure of the single side opening setting in traditional oil press 10.The other technologies in oil press 10 are prior art, and will not be described in detail here.
[0048] Further, as shown in Figure 1 、 3 The automatic embossing machine of can cover further includes feeding mechanism 20, which is arranged at the feed end of the front side of the working chamber 11 and is used for stacking unprocessed can covers;The feeding mechanism 20 is arranged at the feed end of the front side of the working chamber 11, so that the can covers stacked thereon can be as close as possible to the oil press 10, facilitating material taking.In particular, in one embodiment, the feeding mechanism can be directly connected to the oil press 10 or arranged close to the oil press 10.
[0049] Further, as shown in Figure 2 、 4 The automatic embossing machine of can cover further includes receiving mechanism 30, which is arranged at the discharge end of the rear side of the working chamber 11 and is used for stacking processed can covers;The receiving mechanism 30 is arranged at the receiving end of the rear side of the working chamber 11, so that it can be as close as possible to the oil press 10, facilitating material receiving, so that the can covers processed by the oil press 10 can be at a relatively close distance from the receiving mechanism 30.In particular, in one embodiment, the receiving mechanism 30 can be directly connected to the oil press 10 or arranged close to the oil press 10.
[0050] Further, as shown in Figures 1-6 The automatic embossing machine of can cover further includes material placing and taking mechanism 40, which is a mechanical hand structure, and is used for picking up the unprocessed can covers stacked on the feeding mechanism 20 into the working chamber 11 for texture embossing, and placing the can covers after texture embossing on the receiving mechanism 30.By setting the mechanical hand in cooperation with the oil press 10 provided with the working chamber 11, and the feeding mechanism 20 and the receiving mechanism, the automatic operation of can cover texture embossing processing is realized, and the material taking, processing and feeding pipeline type mechanical replacement are truly realized, with high production efficiency and strong production safety.
[0051] The automated can lid embossing machine provided in this embodiment of the invention is further described as follows: Can lids requiring embossing are stacked on the feeding mechanism 20. Since the feeding mechanism 20 is located at the inlet end of the working chamber 11, it is used to stack multiple unprocessed can lids. This allows them to be quickly picked up by the loading / unloading mechanism 40, then transported and placed into the working chamber 11 of the hydraulic press 10 for embossing. After embossing, the can lids are picked up again by the loading / unloading mechanism 40. Since the receiving mechanism 30 is located at the outlet end of the working chamber 11, the loading / unloading mechanism 40 can also quickly transport and place the processed can lids onto the receiving mechanism 30. Thus, multiple processed can lids can be stacked using the receiving mechanism 30. This completely replaces the manual loading / unloading method for embossing can lids, improving production efficiency. Furthermore, it completely avoids the risk of workers being accidentally injured by the hydraulic press 10, improving safety in production.
[0052] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 , 5 As shown in Figure 6, the feeding and picking mechanism 40 includes an axial conveying component 41, a lifting component 42, and a picking component 43. The picking component 43 is connected to the axial conveying component 41 and the lifting component 42 respectively. The axial drive implemented by the axial conveying component 41 is the axial direction of the line connecting the feeding mechanism 20 and the receiving structure, and this line direction passes through the working chamber 11 of the hydraulic press 10.
[0053] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, the pickup component 43, driven by the axial conveying component 41, can move above the feeding mechanism 20, within the working chamber 11, and above the receiving mechanism 30, and can also be lifted vertically by the lifting component 42. The pickup component 43 can be an adsorption type or a gripping type, and is used to pick up can lids. Because the pickup component 43 is connected to both the axial conveying component 41 and the lifting component 42, it can move axially by the axial conveying component 41 and vertically by the lifting component 42.
[0054] Specifically, the axial conveying assembly 41 and the lifting assembly 42 jointly control the pickup assembly 43 to pick up the can lid from the feeding mechanism 20 to the working chamber 11 for processing, and to take out the processed can lid from the working chamber 11 and place it in the receiving mechanism 30. In this way, under the linkage of the axial conveying assembly 41, the lifting assembly 42 and the pickup assembly 43, the can lid can be picked up from the feeding mechanism 20, placed in the working chamber 11 of the oil press 10 for processing, and the processed can lid can be picked up and placed in the receiving mechanism 30. More specifically, the pickup assembly 43 can have a plurality of pickup execution ends, which are configured to simultaneously place the processed can lid into the receiving mechanism 30 when the can lid is placed in the working chamber 11, and / or to simultaneously pick up the processed can lid in the working chamber 11 when the can lid is picked up in the feeding mechanism. The above working modes can be executed by setting the program in the controller under the structure of the axial conveying assembly 41, the lifting assembly 42 and the pickup assembly 43, of course, other working modes can also be adjusted according to the production site. The controller in the embodiment can be a computer or a PLC controller, etc., which all belong to the prior art. In particular, the setting of the program can be set by the person skilled in the art according to the actual needs, and the embodiment aims to protect the technical solution of the above structure.
[0055] In one embodiment, as Figures 1-2As shown in Figures 5 and 6, the axial conveying assembly 41 includes a conveying motor 411, a gear 412, a rack 413, and an outer guide rail pair 414. The gear 412 is mounted on the main shaft of the conveying motor 411. The sliders of the conveying motor 411 and the outer guide rail pair 414 are both mounted on the hydraulic press 10. The rack 413 meshes with the gear 412 and is horizontally arranged along the direction from the feeding mechanism 20 to the receiving mechanism 30. The guide rail of the outer guide rail pair 414 is fixedly connected to the back side of the rack 413 and is parallel to the rack 413. Specifically, after the conveyor motor 411 starts, it controls the gear 412 connected to it to rotate. The gear 412 drives the rack 413 meshing with it to move horizontally. The direction of this horizontal movement is the direction of the connection line between the feeding mechanism 20 and the receiving mechanism 30 mentioned above. Since the sliders of the outer guide rail pair 414 are all installed on the hydraulic press 10, for example, on the outer side of the hydraulic press 10, preferably the side between the feed end and the discharge end, the guide rail of the outer guide rail pair 414 is used as a guide for the movement of the rack 413 connected to it. Under the rotation of the gear 412, the rack 413 moves back and forth between the feeding mechanism 20 and the receiving mechanism 30 with the outer guide rail pair 414 as a guide. More specifically, the pickup assembly 43 is connected to the guide rail and, controlled by the conveying motor 411, can move above the feeding mechanism 20, within the working chamber 11, and above the receiving mechanism 30. Thus, the pickup assembly 43 moves under the drive of the outer guide rail pair 414. The meshing of the rack 413 and the gear 412 greatly ensures smooth and stable movement and provides greater support force, sufficient to support the pickup assembly 43 in picking up the can lid.
[0056] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-2 As shown in Figures 5 and 6, the lifting assembly 42 includes a lifting motor 421, a lead screw pair 422, a lifting seat 423, and a support plate 424. The support plate 424 is vertically mounted on the hydraulic press 10. The lifting motor 421 and the lead screw pair 422 are both mounted on the support plate 424. The lead screw of the lead screw pair 422 is connected to the main shaft of the lifting motor 421. The lifting seat 423 is connected to the nut of the lead screw pair 422. The pickup assembly 43 is connected to the lifting seat 423 and can move vertically under the control of the lifting motor 421. Specifically, after the lifting motor 421 starts, it controls the lead screw of the lead screw pair 422 connected to it to rotate, thereby driving the nut threadedly connected to the lead screw to move vertically. This controls the lifting seat 423 to rise and fall, and the pickup assembly 43 connected to the lifting seat 423 can be controlled to rise and fall, thus effectively controlling the pickup assembly 43 to pick up or unload materials.
[0057] In another embodiment, the lifting motor 421, the screw pair 422, the lifting seat 423 and the support plate 424 of the lifting assembly 42 are all provided with two, at least one lifting motor 421, screw pair 422, lifting seat 423 and support plate 424 form a lifting power output structure, and the other lifting motor 421, screw pair 422, lifting seat 423 and support plate 424 also form another lifting power output structure, which are respectively arranged at the side of the oil press 10 close to the feeding mechanism 20 and the receiving mechanism 30 to be connected with the two spaced positions of the pickup assembly 43, so that the control of the pickup assembly 43 will be more stable, even if the pickup assembly 43 has a longer span, it can still be driven to lift stably by the lifting assembly 42 of the embodiment.
[0058] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 5-6 The pickup assembly 43 includes a moving profile 431, a workboard 432, a connecting seat 433, a guide column 434, a guide sleeve 435 and an inner guide rail pair 436. The moving profile 431 and the guide rail of the inner guide rail pair 436 both pass through the working chamber 11 and are parallel to the driving direction of the axial conveying assembly 41. The slider of the inner guide rail pair 436 is connected with the output end of the lifting assembly 42. The guide rail of the inner guide rail pair 436 is arranged with the moving profile 431 and passes through the working chamber 11 of the oil press 10, which is to support the moving profile 431 and guide it in the axial direction. Connecting the slider of the inner guide rail pair 436 with the output end of the lifting assembly 42 can ensure that the guide rail of the inner guide rail pair 436 is supported when the lifting assembly 42 drives the slider of the inner guide rail pair 436, thereby supporting the moving profile 431. The structure design is very ingenious. More specifically, the slider of the inner guide rail pair 436 is connected and fixed with the lifting seat 423 of the lifting assembly 42. When the lifting seat 423 has two, the number of the sliders of the inner guide rail pair 436 is also two, and they are respectively connected with the two lifting seats 423.
[0059] Further, as shown in Figures 5-6As shown, the work boards 432 are installed on the moving profiles 431, and the number of work boards 432 can be multiple, which can be set according to the work requirements. The work boards 432 are provided with a plurality of vacuum nozzles (not shown), which need to be connected with a vacuum generator. The vacuum generator is a prior art, which will not be described in detail here. The connecting seat 433 is connected with the moving profiles 431 and located outside the work chamber 11. The guide column 434 is vertically installed on the connecting seat 433. The guide sleeve 435 is slidingly sleeved outside the guide column 434, and the guide sleeve 435 is connected with the output end of the axial conveying assembly 41. The sliding sleeve connection of the guide column 434 and the guide sleeve 435 ensures that when the guide rail of the inner guide rail pair 436 driven by the lifting assembly 42 rises and falls, the guide column 434 and the guide sleeve 435 are used as guides to realize the up-and-down movement. When the guide column 434 moves up and down, it will not be interfered by the axial conveying assembly 41 connected with the guide sleeve 435, realizing independent control, linkage and non-interference of the lifting assembly 42 and the axial conveying assembly 41, which is very ingenious and practical in structure design.
[0060] Further, as shown in Figures 5-6 The connecting seat 433 is connected with the guide rail of the outer guide rail pair 414 of the axial conveying assembly 41 through the connecting plate 100. In this way, when the guide rail of the outer guide rail pair 414 moves axially with the rack 413, the connecting seat 433 can be driven to move axially, and the moving profiles 431 are driven to move axially by the connecting seat 433, and then the work boards 432 are driven to move axially.
[0061] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 , 3As shown, the feeding mechanism 20 comprises a feeding motor 21, a feeding lifting screw 22, a feeding base plate 23, a feeding lifting plate 24 and a plurality of feeding side supporting columns 25. The feeding base plate 23 is connected to the oil press 10, the feeding motor 21 is installed on the feeding base plate 23, the feeding lifting screw 22 is arranged in vertical direction and connected to the feeding motor 21, the feeding lifting plate 24 is connected to the feeding lifting screw 22 and can be lifted and lowered by the driving of the feeding motor 21, and the feeding side supporting columns 25 are installed on the feeding base plate 23 and extend upward to be arranged at the side of the feeding lifting plate 24 for limiting the caps stacked on the feeding lifting plate 24. Specifically, when the feeding motor 21 is started, the feeding lifting screw 22 connected to the feeding motor 21 is driven to rotate, and the feeding lifting plate 24 connected to the feeding lifting screw 22 is lifted and lowered vertically. The caps that have not been processed are stacked on the feeding lifting plate 24. When the caps are more, the feeding lifting plate 24 is controlled to be lowered to a lower position, and when the caps are less, the feeding lifting plate 24 is controlled to be lifted to a higher position, so as to control the lifting and lowering of the picking assembly 43 in cooperation with the lifting assembly 42. Further, the feeding side supporting columns 25 can be arranged in multiple and arranged around the feeding lifting plate 24 to limit the caps stacked on the feeding lifting plate 24 from falling.
[0062] In one embodiment, the feeding lifting screw 22 is connected to the feeding motor 21 through a bevel gear 412 assembly (not shown in the figure). The bevel gear 412 assembly comprises two bevel gears 412 that are engaged with each other. The cooperation of the two bevel gears 412 realizes the conversion of the horizontal rotating force into the rotating force vertical to the horizontal direction.
[0063] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 、 3 The feeding mechanism 20 further comprises a front side sliding shaft 26 and a front side sliding sleeve 27. The front side sliding shaft 26 is fixed horizontally on the oil press 10, the front side sliding sleeve 27 is sleeved outside the front side sliding shaft 26, and the feeding base plate 23 is connected and fixed to the top of the front side sliding sleeve 27. In this way, the feeding base plate 23 can be pulled to slide along the front side sliding shaft 26, so that the feeding base plate 23 can be moved away from or close to the oil press 10. For example, before the oil press 10 is started, the feeding base plate 23 can be pulled away from the oil press 10 to stack the caps, and after the stacking is completed, the feeding base plate 23 is pushed close to the oil press 10 to cooperate with the picking assembly 43 to work.
[0064] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 、 4As shown, the receiving mechanism 30 comprises a receiving motor 31, a receiving lifting screw 32, a receiving base plate 33, a receiving lifting plate 34 and a plurality of receiving side support columns 35. The receiving base plate 33 is connected to the oil press 10. The receiving motor 31 is installed on the receiving base plate 33. The receiving lifting screw 32 is arranged in a vertical direction and connected to the receiving motor 31. The receiving lifting plate 34 is connected to the receiving lifting screw 32 and can be lifted and lowered by the driving of the receiving motor 31. The receiving side support columns 35 are installed on the receiving base plate 33 and extend upwardly to be arranged beside the receiving lifting plate 34, so as to limit the caps stacked on the receiving lifting plate 34. Specifically, when the receiving motor 31 is started, the receiving lifting screw 32 connected to the receiving motor 31 is driven to rotate, and the receiving lifting plate 34 connected to the receiving lifting screw 32 is lifted and lowered vertically. The caps processed are stacked on the receiving lifting plate 34. When the caps are more, the receiving lifting plate 34 is controlled to be lowered to a lower position. When the caps are less, the receiving lifting plate 34 is controlled to be lifted to a higher position. In this way, the lifting and lowering of the picking assembly 43 are controlled in cooperation with the lifting assembly 42. Further, the receiving side support columns 35 can be arranged in a plurality of and arranged around the receiving lifting plate 34, so as to limit the caps stacked on the receiving lifting plate 34 from falling off.
[0065] In one embodiment, the receiving lifting screw 32 is connected to the receiving motor 31 through a bevel gear 412 assembly (not shown in the figure). The bevel gear 412 assembly comprises two bevel gears 412 which are engaged with each other. The cooperation of the two bevel gears 412 realizes the conversion of the horizontal rotating force into the rotating force vertical to the horizontal direction.
