Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of stamping technology, specifically to an integrated stamping and die-forming device for clutch production. Background Technology

[0002] The clutch pressure plate is part of the clutch system, located after the clutch disc, and is responsible for transmitting pressure to the clutch disc. The clutch pressure plate is usually made of metal, and its function is to apply pressure to bring the friction surfaces between the clutch disc and the flywheel (a rotating component of the engine) into contact, thus enabling the clutch to engage or disengage. The design and pressure adjustment of the clutch pressure plate play a crucial role in the clutch's performance and feel.

[0003] For example, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN115722568A provides a stamping device for producing clutch pressure plates. The above application uses a placement plate to place the part to be stamped, a longitudinal motion mechanism to drive the stamping longitudinal motion, a stamping head to stamp the part to be stamped, a buffer mechanism to buffer the stamping force, and a rotating mechanism to drive the placement plate to rotate. This solves the problem that most existing stamping devices for producing clutch pressure plates do not have buffer components and the stamping head is easily damaged. However, existing stamping devices for producing clutch pressure plates can only stamp one clutch pressure plate at a time, resulting in low stamping efficiency. At the same time, some clutch pressure plates need to be stamped at multiple stations and need to be transported to each station for secondary processing, which increases production time and reduces production efficiency.

[0035] See attached document Figures 1-9 A stamping and die-forming integrated device for clutch production includes a worktable 1 with several processing stations.

Each of the first station 3, second station 4, and third station 5 consists of a stamping mechanism 8 and a processing die. A loading robot 7 is rotatably mounted at the center of the worktable 1, and the loading robot 7 sequentially brings the workpiece to each station for processing. In this embodiment, the workpiece is a clutch pressure plate.

[0036] The feeding device 2 and the discharging device 6 have the same structure. The feeding device 2 includes a frame 21. The two ends of the frame 21 are respectively rotated by a first transmission roller 22 and a second transmission roller 23. A conveyor belt 24 is sleeved on the first transmission roller 22 and the second transmission roller 23. The conveyor belt 24 is sleeved on the drive roller 25. The drive roller 25 is connected to the first motor 26 through the first transmission mechanism 27.

[0037] The first station 3 includes a first punch head 31, a second punch head 32 and a first mold 33. The first punch head 31 and the second punch head 32 are fixed to the output end of the stamping mechanism 8. The first punch head 31 is used to punch the center hole and the second punch head 32 is used to punch the mounting hole. The first mold 33 has a first forming groove 34 at the relative position of the first punch head 31 and the second punch head 32.

[0038] The second station 4 includes a second mold 41 and a third punch head 44. The third punch head 44 is fixed at the output end of the stamping mechanism 8, and several punches are arranged in a ring array on it. A first positioning block 42 is provided at the center of the second mold 41, and a second forming groove 43 corresponding to the third punch head 44 is provided on it.

[0039] The third station 5 includes a third mold 51 and a stamping head 54. The stamping head 54 is fixed at the output end of the stamping mechanism 8. A second positioning block 52 is provided at the center of the third mold 51, and a forming block 53 corresponding to the stamping head 54 is also provided on it.

[0040] The stamping mechanism 8 includes a mounting block 81. Several support columns 84 are fixedly installed at the lower end of the mounting block 81. A third hydraulic cylinder 85 is also fixedly installed at the center of its lower end. A lifting plate 82 is fixedly installed on the output end of the third hydraulic cylinder 85. The lifting plate 82 is slidably installed on the connecting seat 83 through a linear bearing 86.

[0041] The loading robot 7 includes a rotary table 71, a mounting base 72 fixedly mounted on the rotary table 71, a telescopic block 73 slidably mounted in the mounting base 72, a fixed clamping arm 75 fixedly mounted on the end of the telescopic block 73 away from the rotary table 71, a sliding groove 77 is provided on the telescopic block 73, and a movable clamping arm 76 is slidably mounted in the sliding groove 77, the movable clamping arm 76 being relatively close to or away from the fixed clamping arm 75.

[0042] A first hydraulic cylinder 74 is fixedly mounted on the mounting base 72. The piston rod of the first hydraulic cylinder 74 is fixedly connected to the telescopic block 73. A second hydraulic cylinder 78 is fixedly mounted on the telescopic block 73. The piston rod of the second hydraulic cylinder 78 is connected to the movable clamping arm 76. The lower end of the rotary table 71 is connected to the second motor 79 through the second transmission mechanism 710.

[0043] Working principle:

[0044] The clutch pressure plate is placed on the conveyor belt 24, the first motor 26 rotates, and drives the drive roller 25 to rotate through the first transmission mechanism 27. The conveyor belt 24 runs under the action of the drive roller 25, the first transmission roller 22 and the second transmission roller 23, and the clutch pressure plate is sequentially fed into the worktable 1.

[0045] The piston rod of the first hydraulic cylinder 74 of the loading robot 7 extends, driving the telescopic block 73 to extend along the mounting base 72. Then, the second hydraulic cylinder 78 is activated, driving the movable clamping arm 76 to approach the fixed clamping arm 75. V-shaped grooves are opened on the adjacent surfaces of the fixed clamping arm 75 and the movable clamping arm 76, thereby clamping and fixing the clutch pressure plate. Then, the piston rod of the first hydraulic cylinder 74 retracts, and the second motor 79 drives the rotary table 71 to rotate clockwise one station through the second transmission mechanism 710, reaching the first station 3.

[0046] After reaching the first station 3, the clutch pressure plate is fixed by a fixture such as a three-jaw chuck. Then, the third hydraulic cylinder 85 is started. The piston rod of the third hydraulic cylinder 85 extends downward and drives the lifting plate 82 to move downward. The center hole and the mounting hole are processed through the first punch head 31, the second punch head 32 and the first forming groove 34, completing the first step of processing.

[0047] Then, the loading robot 7 takes out the clutch pressure plate and transfers it to the second station 4. The center hole is fitted onto the first positioning block 42 for positioning. Then, the stamping mechanism 8 drives the third punch head 4 to move downward. The spring sheet is initially processed through the third punch head 44 and the second forming groove 43, completing the second step of processing.

[0048] The loading robot 7 removes the clutch pressure plate and transfers it to the third station 5. The center hole is fitted onto the second positioning block 52 for positioning. Then, the stamping mechanism 8 drives the stamping head 54 to move downward. The spring sheet is then subjected to secondary stamping through the stamping head 54 and the forming block 53 to complete the processing.

[0049] The loading robot 7 removes the clutch pressure plate and transfers it to the discharge device 6 to achieve automatic material collection.

[0050] The present invention achieves automated processing by setting a first station 3, a second station 4 and a third station 5 on the workbench 1, and using a loading robot 7 to sequentially bring the workpiece to each station for processing. Automatic loading and unloading are achieved by setting up a feeding device 2 and a discharging device 6.

[0051] The above-described embodiments are merely illustrative of certain implementations of the present invention, and are described in a relatively specific and detailed manner. However, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements are all within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the appended claims.
