Description

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of sheet metal parts processing, and particularly relates to a device and method for adjusting the distance between jaws of a skin stretching machine. Background Art

[0002] Skin stretching machines are key equipment for producing sheet metal components such as aircraft skins. With the rapid advancement of aviation technology and the increasing performance requirements of modern aircraft, the shapes of skin parts are becoming increasingly complex, with increasingly stringent requirements for dimensional accuracy and surface finish. Skin parts are characterized by a wide variety of products, small batch sizes, and large, complex structures. In actual use, skin stretching machines require increasingly frequent adjustments to the jaw spacing based on the size and shape of the skin parts being formed. Existing longitudinal skin stretching machines have a maximum jaw spacing of 12 meters, and the stretching cylinder has a 1-meter operating stroke. If the stretching machine jaw spacing were to be adjusted solely by the cylinder stroke, the cylinder stroke would have to be at least 4.5 meters. This excessive cylinder stroke increases the operating space of the stretching machine, making it prone to misoperation and increasing the danger level of the stretching machine, presenting unnecessary safety risks to production. Furthermore, the excessive stroke increases the range of motion of the cylinder, which in turn increases friction between internal components and worsens mechanical wear. Furthermore, the prolonged cylinder operation time reduces the efficiency of the entire hydraulic system. Summary of the Invention

[0025] Preferably, the movable cylinder 1 is a movable cylinder having a piston rod, and the piston rod of the movable cylinder 1 passes through the fixed seat 2 and is connected to the left end of the movable seat 4.

[0026] Specifically, the power output end adopts a piston rod, which has a simple structure and can push the moving seat 4 a certain distance, and the connection is stable.

[0027] Preferably, the piston rod of the movable cylinder 1 is connected to the movable seat 4 via a flange 3. The flange 3 is used for connection, which is convenient for installation and removal.

[0028] Example 3: Based on Example 2, the locking mechanism 6 includes two sets of locking units and a pin shaft 6.3. The two sets of locking units are connected in the fixing seat 2, and the two sets of locking units are symmetrically arranged front to back. The pin shaft 6.3 is connected between the power output ends of the two sets of locking units.

[0029] Specifically, the locking mechanism 6 includes two sets of locking units and a pin 6.3. The two sets of locking units are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the movable cylinder 1. The pin 6.3 is connected between the power output ends of the two sets of locking units. The two sets of locking units facilitate the control of the up and down movement of the pin 6.3, resulting in a simple structure and easy operation.

[0030] Preferably, the locking unit includes a locking cylinder 6.1 and an articulated seat 6.2, the fixed seat 2 is connected to the locking cylinder 6.1 through the articulated seat 6.2, and the upper ends of the pin shaft 6.3 are connected between the power output ends of the two locking cylinders 6.1.

[0032] Preferably, the locking cylinder 6.1 is a locking cylinder with a piston rod, and the piston rods of the two locking cylinders 6.1 are connected to the upper ends of the pin shaft 6.3.

[0033] Specifically, the power output end of the locking cylinder 6.1 is a piston rod, which is hingedly connected to the pin 6.3. The piston rod has a simple structure, which is conducive to moving the pin 6.3 up and down a target distance. The hinged connection reduces stress concentration and is easy to install and disassemble.

[0034] Embodiment 4: On the basis of embodiment 3, the frame 5 includes an upper support plate 5.1 and a support body 5.2. The upper surface of the support body 5.2 is connected to the upper support plate 5.1, and the upper surface of the upper support plate 5.1 is connected to the guide rail 7.

[0043] Preferably, the hole 2.51 and the positioning hole 5.11 have the same diameter.

[0044] Specifically, the same hole diameter ensures that after the pin shaft 6.3 passes through the positioning hole 5.11, the fixing seat 2 will not move on the guide rail, thereby ensuring the stability of the fixing seat after locking.

[0045] Example 5: On the basis of Example 4, Figure 3 As shown, a method for adjusting the distance between the jaws of a skin stretching machine includes the following steps: S1. The four adjustment units are symmetrically arranged front and back and left and right. The four adjustment units are divided into two groups, the movable base 4 of each group of adjustment units is connected to the stretching machine jaws 8 via a bracket 9. In the initial state of the skin stretching machine, the locking mechanism 6 is locked on the fixed base 2 and the frame 5. At this time, the distance between the stretching machine jaws 8 between the two groups of adjustment units is at its maximum. S2. When it is necessary to reduce the distance between the jaws 8 of the stretching machine between the two groups of adjustment units, the power output end of the mobile cylinder 1 extends to push the movable seat 4 to move toward the middle until the power output end of the mobile cylinder 1 is fully extended and stops, the pin 6.3 is pulled out from the positioning hole 5.11 on the frame 5, and the locking mechanism 6 is unlocked from the frame 5. Then the power output end of the mobile cylinder 1 retracts, and the fixed seat 2 moves toward the middle under the push of the power output end of the mobile cylinder 1 until the power output end of the mobile cylinder 1 is fully retracted and stops, the pin 6.3 is inserted into the positioning hole 5.11 on the frame 5, and the locking mechanism 6 is locked on the frame 5 again, completing the reduction of the target distance between the jaws 8 of the stretching machine; S3. When it is necessary to further reduce the distance between the stretching machine jaws 8 between the two groups of adjustment units, repeat the above step S2 until the distance between the stretching machine jaws 8 between the two groups of adjustment units is reduced to the target position, completing the reduction adjustment of the target distance between the stretching machine jaws 8 between the two groups of adjustment units.

[0046] Compared with the method of adjusting the distance between the jaws of the stretching machine entirely by the stroke of the moving cylinder, the stroke of the moving cylinder 1 of the present invention is only less than 1 / 3 of the stroke of the moving cylinder of the stretching machine, which avoids all problems caused by excessive stroke of the moving cylinder and has the characteristics of high work efficiency, long service life and easy maintenance.

[0047] Example 6: Based on Example 5, a method for adjusting the distance between the jaws of a skin stretching machine includes the following steps: S1. The four adjustment units are symmetrically arranged front to back and left to right, and the four adjustment units are divided into two groups on the left and right. The movable seats 4 of each group of adjustment units are connected to the jaws 8 of the stretching machine through the bracket 9; in the initial state of the skin stretching machine, the piston rods of the two locking cylinders 6.1 extend downward, driving the pin 6.3 to move downward, so that the pin 6.3 passes through the positioning hole 5.11, and the locking mechanism 6 is locked on the frame 5. At this time, the distance between the jaws 8 of the stretching machine between the two groups of adjustment units is the maximum; the longitudinal skin stretching machine can form skin parts with the largest size allowed by the stretching machine.

[0048] S2. If you want to form a skin part of intermediate size, when you need to reduce the distance between the stretching machine jaws 8 between the two sets of adjustment units, the piston rod of the moving cylinder 1 extends to push the moving seat 4 to the middle (between the two sets of adjustment units) until the piston rod of the moving cylinder 1 is fully extended, and the piston rods of the two locking cylinders 6.1 retract upward, driving the pin 6.3 to move upward, so that the pin 6.3 moves out of the positioning hole 5.11, and the locking mechanism 6 is unlocked from the frame 5; the piston rod of the moving cylinder 1 retracts, (because the stretching machine jaws 8 and bracket 9 weigh more than 70 tons, and the solid The fixed seat 2 weighs only about 15 tons. At this time, the fixed seat 2 will move along the guide rail 7 toward the moving seat 4 under the push of the piston of the mobile cylinder 1 until the piston rod of the mobile cylinder 1 is fully retracted), driving the fixed seat 2 to move toward the middle until the piston rod of the mobile cylinder 1 is fully retracted and stops. The piston rods of the two locking cylinders 6.1 extend downward, driving the pin 6.3 to move downward, so that the pin 6.3 passes through the positioning hole 5.11, and the locking mechanism 6 is locked on the frame 5. At this position, the distance between the jaws 10 of the stretching machine is in the middle position, and the stretching machine can form skin parts of allowable intermediate sizes.

[0049] S3. If you want to form a small skin part and need to further reduce the distance between the jaws 8 of the stretcher between the two sets of adjustment units, repeat the above step S2 to adjust the position of the moving cylinder 1 of each adjustment unit, and finally make the locking cylinder 6.1 drive the pin 6.3 to insert into the positioning hole 5.11. At this position, the distance between the jaws 8 of the stretcher can be minimized, and the stretcher can form the skin part of the minimum size allowed.

[0050] The stroke of the movable cylinder of the present invention is only 1 / 3 of the stroke of the movable cylinder of the stretching machine which entirely relies on the movable cylinder stroke to adjust the distance between the jaws of the stretching machine, thereby avoiding all problems existing in the case of excessive movable cylinder stroke, and having the characteristics of high working efficiency, long service life and convenient maintenance.
