Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metal composite plate production, in particular to an automatic edge milling and flanging method for a metal composite plate. Background Art

[0002] Metal composite panels are made of multiple layers of materials. The upper and lower layers are high-purity aluminum alloy plates, and the middle layer is a low-density polyethylene core plate. Metal composite panels have good weather resistance, high strength, easy maintenance, good plasticity, impact resistance, can reduce the load on buildings, and have good shock resistance. However, metal composite panels cannot be produced in a large area, so metal composite panels need to be assembled and welded. In order to improve the firmness of welding, it is necessary to mill the edges of the metal composite panels to increase the welding area, and it is also necessary to flanging to make the two metal composite panels fit together to make the assembly welding more firm.

[0003] Patent No. 201110257292.3 discloses a special milling power head for trimming metal composite plates, including a connecting bracket, a frame, a speed-regulating gearbox, a motor, a spindle guide device, a compression spring, a limit guide device and a round nose milling cutter disc group; the connecting bracket is connected to the frame by bolts, the spindle guide device is welded to the frame, the motor is fixed to the speed-regulating gearbox by bolts, and then the motor and the speed-regulating gearbox are integrally installed on the spindle guide device, the compression spring is inserted from the lower part of the spindle, and the round nose milling cutter disc group is installed at the lower end of the spindle. When trimming the edge of the metal composite plate, the round nose milling cutter disc group can only mill a thinner layer, and the limit guide device and the guide disc limit the sinking depth of the round nose milling cutter disc group, making it impossible to mill stably, and when the milling width exceeds the round nose milling cutter disc group, the milling efficiency will also deteriorate.

[0004] After milling, the plate needs to be folded and transported to a designated flanging station. The flanging station can only perform flanging in one direction. When flanging in other directions is required, it needs to be moved to another flanging station, which increases the complexity of processing and affects production efficiency.

[0024] After adopting the above technical solution, the effect of the present invention is: the automatic milling and flanging method of the metal composite plate includes the following steps:

[0029] The outer flanging device comprises a lower outer flanging bracket which is laterally slidably mounted on the machine base and located at the outer side of the composite plate, and the machine base is provided with an outer flanging lateral adjustment mechanism for laterally adjusting the lower outer flanging bracket, and at least two lower positioning rollers are rotatably mounted on the lower outer flanging bracket, and the central axis of the lower positioning roller is vertically arranged, and the upper outer flanging bracket is installed on the pressing seat through the upper outer flanging vertical adjustment mechanism, and at least one horizontally arranged outer flanging extrusion roller and at least one horizontally arranged outer flanging pressing roller are rotatably mounted on the upper outer flanging bracket, and at least two lower positioning rollers are respectively matched with the outer flanging extrusion roller and the outer flanging pressing roller, and the outer end of the outer flanging extrusion roller is provided with a conical extrusion portion which extrudes the vertical edge plate portion from the inside to the outside, and the outer flanging pressing roller is located downstream of the outer flanging extrusion roller, and the outer flanging pressing roller extrudes the vertical edge plate portion which turns outward from top to bottom to make it horizontal;

[0030] S2. Preparation work before starting the automatic milling and flanging machine:

[0031] The milling device, the inner flanging device and the outer flanging device are adjusted according to the process of the metal composite plate; the height of the first milling lifting seat is adjusted by the first milling height adjustment mechanism to control the milling depth of the first milling tool; when the inner flanging process is required, the upper outer flanging bracket is slid upward to avoid the vertical edge plate portion by the upper outer flanging vertical adjustment mechanism; when the outer flanging process is required, the inner flanging bracket is adjusted to slide outward horizontally to avoid the vertical edge plate portion by the inner flanging horizontal adjustment mechanism;

[0032] S3, starting the automatic milling and flanging machine, and the metal composite plate runs in the conveying channel between the pressing roller group and the conveying device;

[0035] S6. When the inner flanging process is performed, the vertical side plate portion of the metal composite plate contacts and extrude the inner flanging roller group to wrap the side of the metal composite plate with the inner flanging roller group; when the outer flanging process is performed, the vertical side plate portion of the metal composite plate is squeezed by the conical extrusion portion of the outer flanging extrusion roller and folded outward at the upper end surface of the corresponding lower positioning roller, and the outward-turned vertical side plate portion is squeezed by the outer flanging pressure roller to form a horizontal outward-turned portion; the metal composite plate can be continuously and stably conveyed by the conveying device and the clamping device, so that the metal composite plate can automatically complete milling after passing through the first milling tool, and then pass through the lower flanging device and the inner flanging device or the lower flanging device and the outer flanging device in turn, and automatically complete the inner flanging or outer flanging, and at the same time, it can effectively reduce manual participation and improve efficiency; this method can realize milling, vertical flanging, inward or outward flanging in the process of conveying the metal composite plate, complete the assembly line milling and flanging, and is suitable for different production processes.

[0036] Furthermore, since the method mills the edges twice, the first milling removes the upper metal plate of the metal composite plate, and the second milling removes the core plate of the metal composite plate; the milling accuracy can be effectively improved, and the high quality of the flanging after milling is guaranteed.

[0037] In this method, a second milling mechanism is used for the second milling. The second milling mechanism uses a second milling cutter rotating around a horizontal rotation center line to mill away the core layer plate. The corresponding milling method is used for milling to increase the milling depth and improve the milling efficiency.

[0038] Since the number of the first milling mechanism and the second milling mechanism are both two, when one set is in use, the other set is on standby; they are used alternately, and when one set is being repaired, the other set can be promptly replaced, thereby ensuring stable operation and improving efficiency.

[0039] Since the horizontal position of the outer flanging extrusion roller is adjustable, the extrusion contact position of the conical extrusion portion and the vertical side plate portion can be changed by changing the horizontal position of the outer flanging extrusion roller, thereby adjusting the outer flanging angle; in this way, the outward angle of the vertical side plate portion can be changed during transportation, thereby improving the flexibility during flanging.

[0040] Because the height of the lower positioning roller is adjustable, the upper end surface of the lower positioning roller that cooperates with the outer flanging extrusion roller is higher than the upper end surface of the lower positioning roller that cooperates with the outer flanging pressing roller; because the lower positioning roller needs to be higher than the upper surface of the metal composite plate when the outer flanging extrusion roller is extruding the metal composite plate to ensure that the folded edge during flanging will not be lower than the upper surface of the metal composite plate, as the flanging angle increases, the lower positioning roller can be lowered until the vertical edge plate portion supported is flush with the upper surface of the metal composite plate.

[0041] Furthermore, in the milling step of the method, the width of the core layer plate milled by the second milling is smaller than the width of the upper metal plate milled by the first milling. At this time, part of the core layer plate is still exposed at the edge of the metal composite plate, and the exposed core layer plate of the metal composite plate is wrapped during the inner flanging. In this way, the core layer plate can be effectively protected after the lower metal plate is flanging, thereby ensuring the strength of the metal composite plate. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

When the inner flanging process is performed, the vertical side plate portion 41 of the metal composite plate 25 contacts and is extruded by the inner flanging roller group to wrap the edge of the metal composite plate 25 inwardly; when the outer flanging process is performed, the vertical side plate portion 41 of the metal composite plate 25 is squeezed by the conical extrusion portion 47 of the outer flanging extrusion roller 45 and folded outward at the upper end surface of the corresponding lower positioning roller 43, and the outward-turned vertical side plate portion 41 is squeezed by the outer flanging pressing roller 46 to form a horizontal outward-turned portion; the metal composite plate 25 can be continuously and stably conveyed by the conveying device and the pressing device. 5, so that the metal composite plate 25 can be automatically milled after passing through the first milling tool 4, and the metal composite plate 25 needs to ensure that the upper metal plate and the middle core plate are effectively milled, and then pass through the lower flanging device and the inner flanging device or the lower flanging device and the outer flanging device in turn, automatically completing the inner flanging or outer flanging, and at the same time can effectively reduce manual participation and improve efficiency; this method can realize milling, vertical flanging, inward or outward flanging during the conveying process of the metal composite plate 25, complete the assembly line milling and flanging, and is suitable for different production processes.

[0069] Preferably, the method is milled twice, the first milling removes the upper metal plate of the metal composite plate 25; the second milling removes the core plate of the metal composite plate 25; the milling accuracy can be effectively improved to ensure high quality of flanging after milling.

[0070] Preferably, in this method, a second milling mechanism is used for the second milling, and the second milling mechanism uses a second milling tool rotating around a horizontal rotation center line to mill off the core layer plate; the strength of the core layer plate is lower than that of the upper metal plate, so the corresponding milling method is used for milling to increase the milling depth and improve the milling efficiency.

[0071] Preferably, the number of the first milling mechanism and the second milling mechanism are both two sets, when one set is in use, the other set is on standby; they are used alternately, when one set is being repaired, the other set can be promptly replaced and used, to ensure stable operation and improve efficiency.

[0072] Preferably, the horizontal position of the outer flanging extrusion roller 45 is adjustable, and the extrusion contact position between the conical extrusion portion 47 and the vertical side plate portion 41 is changed by changing the horizontal position of the outer flanging extrusion roller 45, thereby adjusting the outward turning angle; the outward angle of the vertical side plate portion 41 is changed during the conveying process to improve the flexibility during flanging.

[0073] Preferably, the height of the lower positioning roller 43 is adjustable, and the upper end surface of the lower positioning roller 43 cooperating with the outer flanging extrusion roller 45 is higher than the upper end surface of the lower positioning roller 43 cooperating with the outer flanging pressing roller 46; because the outer flanging extrusion roller 45 is extruding the metal composite plate 25, the lower positioning roller 43 needs to be higher than the upper surface of the metal composite plate 25 to ensure that the folded edge during flanging will not be lower than the upper surface of the metal composite plate 25, and as the flanging angle increases, the lower positioning roller 43 can be lowered until the vertical edge plate portion 41 supported is flush with the upper surface of the metal composite plate 25, ensuring the accuracy of the flanging when flanging outward.

[0074] Preferably, in the milling step of the method, the width of the core layer plate milled by the second milling is smaller than the width of the upper metal plate milled by the first milling. At this time, part of the core layer plate is still exposed at the edge of the metal composite plate 25, and the exposed core layer plate of the metal composite plate 25 is wrapped during the inner flanging. In this way, the lower metal plate can effectively cover and protect the exposed core layer plate, and at the same time be flush with the upper metal plate, thereby improving the aesthetics and ensuring the original strength of the metal composite plate 25.

[0089] Furthermore, the lower mounting plate 28 is an arc-shaped mounting plate, and the lower flanging roller seat 29 is provided with a sleeve hole 37 which is sleeved on the arc-shaped mounting plate, and the lower flanging roller seat 29 is provided with a locking structure for locking the lower flanging roller seat 29; the lower flanging roller seat 29 can slide in an arc along the arc-shaped mounting plate through the sleeve hole 37, so that the angle of the lower flanging roller can be changed, and the position can be effectively fixed through the locking structure, and the adjustment is simple and convenient.

[0090] In this embodiment, the number of the intermediate lower flanging rollers 32 is three, and the angles between the central axes of the three intermediate lower flanging rollers 32 and the horizontal plane are 22.5°, 45° and 67.5° respectively; together with the upstream lower flanging roller 30 and the downstream lower flanging roller 31, the metal composite plate 25 can be stably transitioned and folded in sequence after being conveyed by the conveying device, so that the flanging can be stable and accurate, thereby improving the flanging accuracy.

[0091] like Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the structure of the inner flanging bracket 40 is the same as that of the lower flanging bracket, and the inner flanging roller group includes an upstream inner flanging roller 48 at the most upstream, a downstream inner flanging roller 49 at the most downstream, and at least two intermediate inner flanging rollers 50 in the middle, the central axis of the upstream inner flanging roller 48 is vertically arranged, the central axis of the downstream inner flanging roller 49 is horizontally arranged, and the central axis of the intermediate inner flanging roller 50 gradually decreases in accordance with the intersection angle between the conveying direction of the metal composite plate 25 and the horizontal plane; the inner flanging bracket 40 is provided with There are a number of inner mounting plates 54 arranged at intervals. Since the vertical side plate portion 41 of the metal composite plate 25 needs to be flanged inward, the upstream inner flanging roller 48 changes its angle inward when changing its angle toward the downstream inner flanging roller 49. The upstream inner flanging roller 48 can effectively support the vertical side plate portion 41 of the metal composite plate 25, and then the middle inner flanging roller 50 can effectively tilt the vertical side plate portion 41, thereby continuously increasing the tilt angle, and finally the downstream inner flanging roller 49 completes the inner flanging to ensure that the inner flanging is accurate and stable.

Several inner mounting plates 54 are fixedly installed between the lower inner horizontal fixing plate 52 and the upper inner vertical fixing plate 53.

It is only necessary to loosen the fixing bolt 36 so that the upper inner vertical fixing plate 53 is not fixed on the clamping seat 6 and can move away from the metal composite plate 25. Driving the inner flanging roller group to move closer to and away from the metal composite plate 25 is simple, quick and easy to operate; the screw nut mechanism is an existing structure on the market, so it is not described in detail in this article.

[0094] Furthermore, the number of the intermediate inner flanging rollers 50 is three, and the intersection angles between the central axis and the horizontal plane are 67.5°, 45° and 22.5° respectively; together with the upstream inner flanging roller 48 and the downstream inner flanging roller 49, the metal composite plate 25 can be stably transitioned and folded in sequence after being conveyed by the conveying device, so that the flanging can be stable and accurate, thereby improving the flanging accuracy.

As the flanging angle increases, the lower positioning roller 43 can be lowered until the vertical side plate portion 41 supported is flush with the upper surface of the metal composite plate 25. The lower positioning roller 43 can be controlled to be at the height of the vertical side plate portion 41 of the metal composite plate 25 through the positioning lifting and adjusting mechanism, so that it can cooperate with the corresponding outer flanging extrusion roller 45 and the outer flanging pressing roller 46; the positioning lifting and adjusting mechanism is a positioning screw elevator 58, and the positioning screw elevator 58 is provided with an artificial turntable 59 to drive the lower positioning roller 43 to a suitable height.

[0098] like Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the outer flanging extrusion roller 45 is installed on the upper outer flanging bracket 44 through a horizontal adjustment structure. The outer flanging extrusion roller 45 can be effectively moved horizontally through the horizontal adjustment structure, so that the tapered extrusion portion 47 can be squeezed outward close to the vertical side plate portion 41 of the metal composite plate 25, so that the vertical side plate portion 41 gradually flanging outward until it is horizontal, thereby improving the flanging effect.

[0099] In this embodiment, the horizontal adjustment mechanism includes a central screw 61 fixed on the upper outer flanging bracket 44 and arranged horizontally, an adjusting screw sleeve 62 is threadedly installed on the central screw 61, the outer flanging extrusion roller 45 is rotatably installed on the adjusting screw sleeve 62, the outer end of the adjusting screw sleeve 62 is provided with a screwing portion 63 and exposed from the outer flanging extrusion roller 45, and a compression spring 64 is provided between the adjusting screw sleeve 62 and the upper outer flanging bracket 44; a rotating bearing 65 is provided between the adjusting screw sleeve 62 and the outer flanging extrusion roller 45 to ensure stable rotation, and the extension distance of the outer flanging extrusion roller 45 can be changed by rotating the adjusting screw sleeve 62, thereby increasing or decreasing the extrusion inclination amplitude of the vertical side plate portion 41 of the metal composite plate 25, and at the same time, the compression spring 64 can ensure that the adjusting screw sleeve 62 and the central screw 61 can be effectively locked after rotation, thereby improving the effect of flanging the metal composite plate 25.

[0100] Furthermore, the outer flanging pressing roller 46 is also installed on the upper outer flanging bracket 44 through a horizontal adjustment structure; therefore, the internal structure of the outer flanging pressing roller 46 is the same as the structure of the outer flanging extrusion roller 45, and an adjusting screw sleeve 62 is also rotatably installed in the outer flanging pressing roller 46, and the adjusting screw sleeve 62 is also rotatably installed on another center screw 61, and the outer flanging pressing roller 46 and the adjusting screw sleeve 62 are also rotatably connected through a rotating bearing 65, so that the outer flanging pressing roller 46 can rotate stably, and at the same time, the outer flanging pressing roller 46 can also move axially along the center screw 61.
