[0042] The above-described solution will be further illustrated below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. The implementation conditions used in the embodiments may be further adjusted according to the conditions of specific manufacturers, and the implementation conditions not specified are generally those in routine experiments.

[0043] See Figures 1 to 3 The diagram below is a structural schematic of an embodiment of the present invention. It provides a compact press, including a body component 1, a slider body 2, a drive mechanism 3, and a transmission mechanism. The transmission mechanism connects the drive mechanism 3 and the slider body 2, and the drive mechanism drives the slider body 2 to move up and down relative to the body component 1.

[0044] Typically, the transmission mechanism includes *a* crankshafts, where *a* = 1 or 2, and *a* × *n* = the number of machine tool points. Each crankshaft includes *n* crankshaft assemblies. Correspondingly, the transmission mechanism also includes *n+1* eccentric sleeves 6 rotatably mounted on the machine body component 1 and *n* guide posts 5 slidably disposed on the machine body component 1, where *n* ≥ 1. This embodiment shows the case where *a* = 1 and *n* = 3, meaning the crankshaft has three crankshaft assemblies 4. In other embodiments, the number of crankshaft assemblies can be set as needed; this invention does not impose any limitations.

[0045] like Figure 4 As shown, the crankshaft assembly 4 includes two opposing shoulders 4-1 and a crankshaft component 4-2 fixed on the two shoulders 4-1. The two shoulders 4-1 are rotatably supported on eccentric sleeves 6 on both sides via a support shaft assembly. One end of the guide post 5 is rotatably connected to the crankshaft component 4-2, and the other end is fixedly connected to the slider body 2. The radius of the eccentric sleeve 6 is larger than the radius of rotation e1 of the crankshaft component 4-2, and the radius of rotation e1 of the crankshaft component 4-2 is larger than the distance e2 between the axes of the crankshaft component 4-2 and the support shaft assembly. The value of e2 / e1 is between 0.77 and 0.92. Through the transmission and engagement structure between the crankshaft component 4-2 and the eccentric sleeve 6, a high connecting rod ratio transmission can be achieved to improve the pressure holding capacity of the press.

[0046] To facilitate the installation of crankshaft assembly 4, the machine body component 1 is divided into n working sections by n+1 partitions 1-1. In this example, four partitions 1-1 are used, forming three working sections. Each crankshaft assembly 4 is arranged in its corresponding working section, and each eccentric sleeve 6 is rotatably supported on its corresponding partition 1-1. The eccentric sleeve 6 is supported on the partition 1-1 by bearings 9, and the axial ends of the bearings 9 are respectively limited by limiting members 10. Two spaced-apart shaft holes 4-1a are provided on the shaft shoulder 4-1 for the crankshaft assembly 4-2 and the support shaft assembly to pass through and be fixed.

[0047] like Figure 5 As shown, a support hole 6-1 for the support shaft assembly to pass through is provided at the eccentric position of the eccentric sleeve 6, and an assembly process hole 6-2 is provided at the center position of the eccentric sleeve 6 to facilitate the installation of the crankshaft assembly 4. In other embodiments, an assembly process hole can also be provided on the body component 1 to facilitate the installation of the transmission mechanism.

[0048] In order to facilitate the balance of the centrifugal force caused by the floating of crankshaft component 4-2 during operation, a balance block 6-3 is provided on the eccentric sleeve 6. The balance block 6-3 and the support hole 6-1 are respectively arranged on the radial sides of the eccentric sleeve 6.

[0049] The support shaft assembly includes a first support shaft 4-3 fixed between two adjacent crankshaft assemblies 4 and a second support shaft 4-4 fixed on the outer crankshaft assembly 4. The first support shaft 4-3 and the second support shaft 4-4 are rotatably disposed in the support hole 6-1 of the corresponding eccentric sleeve 6.

[0050] In order to facilitate the rotation of the eccentric sleeve 6, the transmission mechanism also includes a transmission gear 7, which is fixed on the eccentric sleeve 6 located on the outer side.

[0051] The drive mechanism 3 includes a drive component, a gear shaft 3-2 that is connected to the drive component, and a drive gear 3-3 mounted on the gear shaft 3-2. The drive gear 3-3 meshes with the transmission gear 7. In this example, the drive component includes two drive motors 3-1 arranged opposite to each other. The gear shaft 3-2 is located between the two drive motors 3-1 and is driven by the two drive motors 3-1.

[0052] To improve the compactness of the structure, a transmission interval is provided between the outer partition 1-1 and the fuselage component 1, and the transmission gear 7 and the drive gear 3-2 are located in the transmission interval.

[0053] To improve the stability of the guide post 5, a guide sleeve 8 is provided on the body component 1, and the guide post 5 is slidably disposed in the guide sleeve 8.

[0054] The working principle of the above-mentioned press is as follows:

[0055] Two drive motors 3-1 drive the gear shaft 3-2 to rotate, the gear shaft 3-2 drives the drive gear 3-3 to rotate, the drive gear 3-3 further drives the transmission gear 7 to rotate, thereby driving the eccentric sleeves 6 on both sides to rotate, thereby driving multiple crankshaft components 4-2 to rotate, and then driving the guide post 5 to perform reciprocating linear motion, realizing the up and down movement of the slider 2, and completing the stamping process.

[0056] In summary, the transmission mechanism of this press has a high linkage ratio, which can improve the pressure holding capacity and realize multi-point stamping.

[0057] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of the present invention, and are intended to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of the present invention and implement it accordingly. They should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. All equivalent transformations or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
