Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of sealing ring trimming, and in particular to an automatic trimming machine for rubber sealing rings. Background Art

[0002] Rubber seals are a common sealing material used to seal the inlet and outlet of liquids, gases or dust. Due to their softness and corrosion resistance, they are often used in the sealing parts of pipes, valves, pumps and other equipment.

[0003] Put the refined rubber material into the mold according to a certain shape and size, and use pressure to fill the mold cavity and reach a certain density. Vulcanization is to cross-link the molded rubber parts under a certain temperature and pressure to obtain the required physical and mechanical properties and chemical stability. During the vulcanization of rubber sealing rings, the rubber will inevitably flow out to the parting surface and other parts to form overflow rubber edges, also known as burrs or flash. The number and thickness of the rubber edges depend on the structural accuracy of the mold. At present, most rubber sealing ring products need to be trimmed and deburred after vulcanization. Conventional automatic trimming machines can only realize automatic trimming and deburring, and cannot realize automatic unloading. In addition, small fragments remaining on the fixture need to be blown away manually with an air gun. The overall operation is cumbersome and not conducive to the automated production rhythm.

The top end of the limiting slide rod 33 passes through the material discharge channel 221. A driving unit 231 connected to the upper surface of the rotating platform 23 is provided on the outer side of the shaft seat 245, and the output end of the driving unit 231 is transmission-connected to the shaft rod 244.

[0042] refer to Figure 1-6, put the refined rubber material into the mold according to a certain shape and size, and use pressure to fill the mold cavity and reach a certain density. Vulcanization is to cross-link the molded rubber parts under a certain temperature and pressure to obtain the required physical and mechanical properties and chemical stability. During the vulcanization of rubber sealing rings, the rubber will inevitably flow out to the parting surface and other parts to form overflow rubber edges, also known as burrs or flash. The number and thickness of the rubber edges depend on the structural accuracy of the mold. At present, most rubber sealing ring products need to be trimmed and deburred after vulcanization. Conventional automatic trimming machines can only realize automatic trimming and deburring, and cannot realize automatic unloading. In addition, small fragments remaining on the fixture need to be blown away manually with an air gun. The overall operation is cumbersome and not conducive to the automated production rhythm;

[0043] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects, the present invention designs an automatic trimming machine for rubber sealing rings.

[0044] Placement of rubber sealing ring blanks:

[0045] Initially, the driving unit 231 drives the shaft 244 on the trimming member 24 to rotate around the shaft seat 245, driving the bracket 243, the bearing plate 242, the trimming rod 241 and the clamp 246 to rotate as a whole until the clamp 246 rotates to a vertical state. Among them, the clamps 246 are provided with two and are symmetrically distributed up and down as the center of the trimming rod 241. Taking the "upper" clamp 246 as an example, when the smooth wheel 2432 no longer squeezes the lower surface of the smooth block 2424, the reciprocating plate 2464 of the "upper" clamp 246, under the combined action of its own gravity and the strong spring 2465, drives the reciprocating plate 2464 to slide downward along the outer surface of the guide column 2421, drives the trimming rod 241 to slide downward along the inside of the load-bearing plate 242, generates a downward pulling force on the rotating frame 2463, drives the clamping block 2461 to move closer to one side of the T-shaped round rod 2422, and the smooth rod part of the threaded rod 2462 slides into the guide hole 2423, and the rotating frame 2463 rotates, and the "space radius is reduced" surrounded by multiple groups of clamping blocks 2461, which is convenient for the rapid placement of the rubber sealing ring blank.

[0046] Next, the rubber seal ring blank is placed on the loading plate 2425, and the output end of the driving motor 2434 drives the driven gear 2433 to rotate, drives the driving rod 2431 to rotate around the inside of the shaft 244, and drives the smooth wheel 2432 to rotate. Since the smooth wheel 2432 and the driving rod 2431 are not installed centrally, during the rotation of the driving rod 2431, the outer surface of the circumference of the smooth wheel 2432 will generate an upward thrust on the lower surface of the smooth block 2424, drive the trimming rod 241 to slide upward along the inside of the load-bearing plate 242, generate an upward pulling force on the rotating frame 2463, drive the clamping block 2461 to expand to the side away from the T-shaped round rod 2422, and the light rod part of the threaded rod 2462 slides outward from the inside of the guide hole 2423, and the rotating frame 2463 rotates, and the "space radius enclosed by the multiple groups of clamping blocks 2461 increases", so as to achieve rapid clamping of the rubber seal ring blank.

[0047] Trimming of rubber sealing ring blanks:

[0048] After the rubber sealing ring blank and the clamp 246 are combined into a whole, the external CNC manipulator drives the trimming head body 1 to move toward one side of the rubber sealing ring blank until the trimming head body 1 moves to the part of the rubber sealing ring blank to be processed. Then, the electric turntable frame 22 drives the rotating platform 23, the trimming piece 24 and the rubber sealing ring blank to rotate synchronously and rapidly, and the trimming head body 1 is used to trim the burrs of the rubber sealing ring blank.

[0049] The trimming part 2 and the collecting part 3 cooperate to have the following advantages:

[0050] Advantage 1: Since the smooth wheel 2432 and the driving rod 2431 are not centrally mounted, the rotation of the smooth wheel 2432 can easily change the position of the clamping block 2461 on the clamp 246, thereby quickly positioning and clamping the rubber sealing ring blank. The electric turntable frame 22, the rotating platform 23 and the trimming cutter head body 1 can be used to quickly trim the rubber sealing ring blank.

[0051] Advantage 2: There are two groups of trimming parts 24, which are symmetrically distributed up and down. After the rubber sealing ring blank carried by the "upper" clamp 246 is trimmed, the driving unit 231 is used to drive the shaft rod 244 to rotate around the inside of the shaft seat 245, and the positions of the "upper" clamp 246 and the "lower" clamp 246 are rotated and interchanged, thereby realizing the automatic separation of the trimmed waste.

[0052] Advantage three, when the positions of the "upper" clamp 246 and the "lower" clamp 246 are interchanged, the rubber sealing ring carried by the "upper" clamp 246 rotates synchronously with it until the rubber sealing ring rotates to just above the limiting slide bar 33, and then, another set of rubber sealing ring blanks are placed on the "lower" clamp 246. Finally, by utilizing the rotation of the smooth wheel 2432, it can be achieved synchronously that the "lower" clamp 246 clamps the newly placed rubber sealing ring blank again, and the "upper" clamp 246 releases the processed rubber sealing ring synchronously, and the small fragments remaining on the clamp 246 fall synchronously with the rubber sealing ring, and the rubber sealing ring falls into the space surrounded by the limiting slide bar 33, realizing automatic unloading and eliminating the trouble of manual repeated disassembly.

[0053] Advantage four, the smooth wheel 2432 can be used to quickly rotate to achieve the movable adjustment of the "upper" clamp 246 and the "lower" clamp 246, which is convenient for removing impurities, or the shaft 244 can be rotated multiple times to use centrifugal force to throw out the impurities on the clamp 246.

[0054] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. However, these modifications or replacements will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the protection scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
