AI Technical Summary
In the existing folding machines or bending centers, during the bending process, the ear knife rubs against the sheet material, causing scratches on the sheet material surface and making the ear knife easily damaged. In addition, it is impossible to prevent the knife from bending the sheet material prematurely.
A tool module with inward adaptive adjustment position is designed. The tool is adaptively adjusted through the combination of a slide groove, a push rod, a linkage block and a return spring. The contact part first contacts the plate and pushes the tool to horizontal alignment under the reaction force, avoiding friction and premature bending.
The tool and the plate are in horizontal contact, which avoids plate wear and premature bending of the tool and extends the service life of the tool and the plate.
