Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a supporting leg and a supporting foot and a forming device. Background Art
[0002] Semi-trailer outriggers are commonly known as outriggers. They are divided into left and right outriggers. As an indispensable part of the semi-trailer, the commonly used outriggers generally have a stroke of about 45 cm, a closed height of about 90 cm, a rated load of 28 tons, and a static load of 40 tons. Their function is to support the semi-trailer after it is separated from the front of the vehicle, but the styles and types are different. Different types have basically the same structure. They all support the semi-trailer by the up and down movement of the outriggers. The bottom of the outriggers is connected by a rotating shaft as a connecting part. When the square structure of the outriggers and the circular structure of the rotating shaft are fixed and welded, the lower part of the outriggers must be closed first. The existing process is to perform plasma cutting on the outriggers and then form them. The defects of this processing technology are mainly that the cutting edge has low precision and slow processing speed, which is not suitable for mass production. Summary of the invention

An inner hole 42 is processed in the first oblique punch die 4, and the inner hole 42 is a 45° clamp with the horizontal plane. A spring 412 and a first oblique punch rod 41 are installed in the inner hole 42, and the first oblique punch rod 41 is positioned by an end cover 43. A first oblique punch knife 411 is processed at the lower end of the first oblique punch rod 41, and the shape of the first oblique punch knife 411 matches the first oblique punch groove 71 and the transition 73 radii of the support foot 7. A first inner mold cavity 311 is processed at the first inner mold core 31, and the first inner mold cavity 311 matches the first oblique punch knife 411.
[0029] A second horizontal punch 91 is processed on the inner side of the second horizontal die 9, and the shape of the second horizontal punch 91 matches the second stamping forming surface 72 of the support leg 7. A second mold core 121 is processed at the second inner mold 12, and the second mold core 121 matches the second horizontal punch 91. A second punch block 10 is installed on the second upper mold 11, and the second punch block 10 matches the second horizontal die 9.
[0030] The device achieves the closing of the lower part of the foot through two stamping processes, with high forming precision, convenient welding, and cost savings, providing a quantitative production process for the mass production of the foot.

The shape after forming is as shown in FIG. Fig. 9 Finally, the upper and lower sides of the bracket are bent manually or by a robot to form a shape as shown in Fig.10 shown.
[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
