[0035] That is, the end of the connecting rod away from the shaping finger can be attracted by a magnet. At this time, the material of the connecting rod is iron or other material that can be attracted by a magnet, or the connecting rod is provided with an iron block, a magnet or other material that can be attracted by the matching structure.
[0036] In one of the embodiments of the present application, when the connecting rod is provided with an elastic member, the matching structure is in contact with the connecting rod.

This arrangement can reasonably arrange the spatial positions of the wire limiting nozzle and the shaping finger, improve the space utilization, and make the structure more compact compared to the case where the axis of the wire limiting nozzle is coincident with the axis of the shell.

[0057] a limiting clamp used for clamping the piston body and limiting the maximum distance of the piston body entering the piston hole.
[0058] In actual application, the existing wire locking element can be used. In one embodiment of the present application, the wire locking element comprises:
[0059] a mounting member, an outer side wall of which is provided with external threads, the mounting member is fixedly installed at the first end of the piston body;
[0060] a resilient clamping member, which is installed on the mounting member and is provided with a plurality of resilient clamping claws, and the wire is passed through the middle of the plurality of resilient clamping claws in use;
[0061] a locking cap, which is provided with internal threads for screwing with the external threads of the mounting member, and an inner side wall of the locking cap is used for cooperating with the resilient clamping claws, so that the resilient clamping claws can clamp or release the wire by rotating the locking cap;
[0062] one end of the column body close to the wire limiting nozzle is provided with an anti-rotation groove, when the limiting clamp is removed, the locking cap is inserted into the anti-rotation groove by pushing the piston body towards the inside of the column body.
[0063] In actual application, preferably, the outer side wall of the end of the resilient clamping claw is a tapered surface, and the inner side wall of the locking cap is provided with a tapered surface, so that when the locking cap is locked, the tapered surface of the locking cap extrudes the tapered surface of the resilient clamping claw, and the tapered surfaces of the resilient clamping member are close to each other, thereby clamping and fixing the wire. When the locking cap is loosened, the tapered surface of the locking cap no longer extrudes the tapered surface of the resilient clamping claw, and the resilient clamping claw is elastically reset and no longer clamps the wire.
[0064] In actual application, the resilient clamping member can be an integral piece, and the plurality of resilient clamping claws are obtained by opening notches at the ends.

[0067] In one of the embodiments of the present application, the torsion pushing part has a positioning groove at one end close to the piston body, the cylinder has a positioning groove at one end away from the shell, and the limiting clamp has two positioning protrusions matched with the two positioning grooves respectively.
[0068] The shaping device further comprises a pair of sensors mounted on the frame, the pair of sensors comprising a transmitter and a receiver, and the pair of sensors are used to detect the limiting clamp when the integrated shaper is just installed in the shell positioning groove.
[0069] Through the cooperation of the positioning groove and the positioning protrusion, the circumferential position of the piston body can be ensured after assembly, so that the first clamping assembly can reliably clamp the torsion pushing part. Through the transmitter and the receiver, detection can be performed when the integrated shaper is initially placed. Only when the limiting clamp is detected, the shaping device can perform the next action. For example, when initially placed, the two positioning protrusions of the limiting clamp are respectively clamped into the two positioning grooves, at this time the piston body extends into the piston hole, and when the shell is placed into the shell positioning groove, the limiting clamp is in the laser path of the transmitter and the receiver at this time, which will break the laser.

[0072] In one of the embodiments of the present application, a second clamping assembly is further mounted on the frame, the outer side wall of the shell has a limiting groove, and the second clamping assembly is used to clamp at the limiting groove after the shell is installed in the shell positioning groove, so that the shell cannot move up and down along the axis of the shell.
[0073] In actual use, the second clamping assembly can be in various forms, such as a telescopic electromagnet, an electric push rod, an electric clamping jaw, a pneumatic clamping jaw, etc. Through the second clamping assembly, the shell can be prevented from moving up and down during processing.
[0074] In one of the embodiments of the present application, the sidewall of the shell positioning slot has a avoiding opening corresponding to the avoiding opening.
[0075] In one of the embodiments of the present application, the cylinder is arranged eccentrically relative to the axis of the shell.
[0076] The bottom wall of the shell positioning slot has a through hole, and the cylinder passes through the through hole.
[0077] The bottom wall of the shell has a first positioning structure, and the bottom wall of the shell positioning slot has a second positioning structure matched with the first positioning structure, wherein one of the first positioning structure and the second positioning structure is a positioning slot, and the other is a positioning column.
[0078] The first positioning structure and the second positioning structure are matched with each other to ensure the circumferential position of the shell and ensure the positioning accuracy.
[0079] In one of the embodiments of the present application, the bottom wall of the shell positioning slot is provided with a trigger switch, and when the shell is installed in place, the bottom wall of the shell contacts the trigger switch to trigger the trigger switch.

This form of the present application can prevent the shaped metal wire from being contaminated, and the metal wire will not be deformed due to pressure because it is protected by the shell.

[0100] The present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Embodiment 1
[0101] As shown in Figures 10-13 , a shaping device comprises an integrated shaper 10, a rack 20, a shaping finger driving mechanism 30 mounted on the rack 20, and a twist sending mechanism 40 mounted on the rack 20.
[0102] As shown in Figures 1-9 , the integrated shaper 10 comprises:
[0103] a shell 11 having a shaping cavity 111 inside;
[0104] a wire limiting nozzle 12 fixed in the shaping cavity 111 for the wire 1 to pass through;
[0105] a shaping finger 13 slidingly installed in the shaping cavity 111, the shaping finger 13 being used to cooperate with the wire 1 at the outlet of the wire limiting nozzle 12 to extrude and shape the wire 1;
[0106] a column 14 connected with the shell 11, the column 14 having a piston hole 141, the axis of the piston hole 141 coinciding with the axis of the wire limiting nozzle 12; and
[0107] a piston assembly 15 mounted on the piston hole 141 of the column 14, the piston assembly 15 having a wire locking element 151, the piston assembly 15 being capable of rotating and moving relative to the column 14, in use, the wire 1 being fixed with the wire locking element 151 and passing through the wire limiting nozzle 12.
[0108] As shown in Figure 11 and 13 , the rack 20 comprises a shell positioning groove 21, the shell 11 of the integrated shaper 10 being used to be placed on the shell positioning groove 21; the shaping finger driving mechanism 30 being used to drive the shaping finger 13 to reciprocally slide; the twist sending mechanism 40 being used to drive the piston assembly 15 to rotate and move relative to the column 14.
[0109] The integrated shaper 10 in the shaping device is a separate unit and can be taken out alone. During processing, the integrated shaper 10 is installed on the shell positioning groove 21, the piston assembly 15 can rotate and move relative to the column 14 under the driving of the twist sending mechanism 40, and the shaping finger 13 can make reciprocating linear motion under the driving of the shaping finger driving mechanism 30. Since the wire limiting nozzle 12 and the shaping finger 13 are both located in the shaping cavity 111 of the shell 11, the entire shaping process is completed in the shaping cavity 111, which can effectively prevent the wire 1 from being contaminated. After the shaping is completed, the integrated shaper 10 can be taken out as a tool for storing and transporting the wire 1, and the wire 1 can be taken out by opening the shell 11 when needed. In this form, the shaped wire 1 will not be contaminated, and because it is protected by the shell 11, it will not be deformed under pressure.
[0110] In actual use, the connection between the column 14 and the shell 11 means that they are integrally formed or fixedly connected. The specific connection method can be fixed by fasteners, welded or detachably fixed by threads.
[0111] In this application, the wire 1 can be fixed with the wire locking element 151 after passing through the wire limiting nozzle 12, or the wire 1 can be fixed with the wire locking element 151 first and then pass through the wire limiting nozzle 12.
[0112] As shown in Figure 4 In this embodiment, the shell 11 has a taking and placing opening 112 and a closure 113 that covers the taking and placing opening 112.
[0113] In actual use, the closure 113 can be screwed onto the taking and placing opening 112 of the shell 11, or it can be a sticker that is attached to the shell 11 to cover the taking and placing opening 112.
[0114] As shown in Figure 1 and 4 In this embodiment, the side wall of the shell 11 has a mounting opening 114; the integrated shaper 10 further comprises:
[0115] A flexible member 16, a first end 161 of the flexible member is mounted at the mounting opening 114;
[0116] A slide rail 17 is fixed in the shaping cavity 111, and the shaping finger 13 is slidingly mounted on the slide rail 17;
[0117] A connecting rod 18 is connected to the shaping finger 13 at one end and connected to the second end 162 of the flexible member at the other end. The flexible member 16 covers the mounting opening 114, or the flexible member 16 and the connecting rod 18 together cover the mounting opening 114.
[0118] As shown in Figure 1and 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the flexible element 16 is a tower-shaped telescopic sealing sleeve. This design of the flexible element 16 allows for telescopic movement, facilitating a larger stroke for the connecting rod 18.
[0119] like Figure 4 As shown, the end of the connecting rod 18 away from the shaping finger 13 has an annular groove 181, and the second end 162 of the flexible member has an annular portion 163 that is embedded in the annular groove 181. This facilitates the installation and mating of the connecting rod 18 and the annular portion 163, and the movement of the connecting rod 18 can drive the second end 162 of the flexible member to move.
[0120] like Figure 10 and 11 As shown, in this embodiment, the shaping finger driving mechanism 30 includes:
[0121] The track 31 is fixed on the frame 20 and located on one side of the housing positioning groove 21. The length direction of the track 31 is the same as the axial direction of the connecting rod 18.
[0122] The driving component 32 is slidably mounted on the track 31. The driving component 32 has a driving groove 321. The end of the driving component 32 near the housing positioning groove 21 has a mating structure 322 that mates with the connecting rod 18.
[0123] An eccentric wheel 33 is disposed in the drive groove 321. The rotation axis of the eccentric wheel 33 is parallel to the axis of the eccentric wheel 33. When the eccentric wheel 33 rotates around the rotation axis, it can drive the drive component 32 to move on the track 31.
[0124] The first drive motor 34 is mounted on the frame 20 and is used to drive the eccentric wheel 33 to rotate around the rotation axis of the eccentric wheel 33.
[0125] In practical applications, the mating structure 322 can be a magnet, a vacuum suction cup, or other similar structure. In this embodiment, the mating structure 322 is a magnet, and it magnetically engages with the connecting rod 18. That is, the end of the connecting rod 18 furthest from the shaping finger can be attracted by the magnet. The connecting rod 18 can be made of iron or other materials that can be attracted by a magnet, or it can be made of a block of iron, a magnet, or other materials that can be attracted by the mating structure 322.
[0126] like Figure 1 and 11 As shown, in this embodiment, the first end 161 of the flexible member is mounted on the outer side wall of the housing 11.
[0127] The first end 161 of the flexible component is installed on the outer side wall of the housing 11, which will not encroach on the space inside the housing 11, and facilitates the arrangement of the shaping finger 13 and the wire limiting nozzle 12.
[0128] In the embodiment, the sliding direction of the shaping finger 13 is perpendicular to the axis of the wire limiting nozzle 12.
[0129] In the embodiment, the axis of the wire limiting nozzle 12 is parallel to the axis of the shell 11, and the straight line where the moving path of the shaping finger 13 is located is perpendicular to the intersection of the axis of the wire limiting nozzle 12 and the axis of the shell 11.
[0130] The “axis of the wire limiting nozzle 12 is parallel to the axis of the shell 11” means that the wire limiting nozzle 12 is eccentrically arranged relative to the axis of the shell 11, and the straight line where the moving path of the shaping finger 13 is located is perpendicular to the intersection of the axis of the wire limiting nozzle 12 and the axis of the shell 11. This arrangement can reasonably arrange the spatial positions of the wire limiting nozzle 12 and the shaping finger 13, improve the space utilization, and make the structure more compact compared to the case where the axis of the wire limiting nozzle 12 and the axis of the shell 11 coincide.
[0131] As shown in Figure 10 and 12 , in the embodiment, the twist sending mechanism 40 includes:
[0132] a rotating disc 41 rotatably installed on the rack 20;
[0133] a second driving motor 42 for driving the rotating disc 41 to rotate directly or through a transmission structure;

[0152] As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13, in the embodiment, the torsion pushing part 1523 has a positioning groove 15231 at one end close to the piston body 152, the cylinder 14 has a positioning groove 15231 at one end away from the shell 11, and the limiting clamp 153 has a positioning protrusion 1531 matched with the two positioning grooves 15231, respectively. Figure 8 As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13, in the embodiment, the torsion pushing part 1523 has a positioning groove 15231 at one end close to the piston body 152, the cylinder 14 has a positioning groove 15231 at one end away from the shell 11, and the limiting clamp 153 has a positioning protrusion 1531 matched with the two positioning grooves 15231, respectively.
[0153] Figure 6 As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13, in the embodiment, the torsion pushing part 1523 has a positioning groove 15231 at one end close to the piston body 152, the cylinder 14 has a positioning groove 15231 at one end away from the shell 11, and the limiting clamp 153 has a positioning protrusion 1531 matched with the two positioning grooves 15231, respectively. 12 As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13, in the embodiment, the torsion pushing part 1523 has a positioning groove 15231 at one end close to the piston body 152, the cylinder 14 has a positioning groove 15231 at one end away from the shell 11, and the limiting clamp 153 has a positioning protrusion 1531 matched with the two positioning grooves 15231, respectively.
[0154] As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13, in the embodiment, the torsion pushing part 1523 has a positioning groove 15231 at one end close to the piston body 152, the cylinder 14 has a positioning groove 15231 at one end away from the shell 11, and the limiting clamp 153 has a positioning protrusion 1531 matched with the two positioning grooves 15231, respectively. Figure 12 As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13, in the embodiment, the torsion pushing part 1523 has a positioning groove 15231 at one end close to the piston body 152, the cylinder 14 has a positioning groove 15231 at one end away from the shell 11, and the limiting clamp 153 has a positioning protrusion 1531 matched with the two positioning grooves 15231, respectively.

The emitter 231 and the receiver 232 can detect when the integrated shaper 10 is initially placed, and only when the limiting clamp 153 is detected can the shaper device perform the next action. For example, when initially placed, the two positioning protrusions 1531 of the limiting clamp 153 are respectively clamped into the two positioning grooves 15231, at this time the piston body 152 extends into the piston hole 141, and when the shell 11 is placed into the shell positioning groove 21, at this time the limiting clamp 153 is in the laser path of the emitter 231 and the receiver 232, which will break the laser, and the installation is determined to be in place according to the signal of the transmission sensor assembly, at this time the first clamping assembly 44 works to clamp the torsion pushing part 1523, and if the position is not correct, the laser between the emitter 231 and the receiver 232 will not be broken, at this time the first clamping assembly 44 will not work.
[0156] As shown in Figure 1 and 10 , in this embodiment, the torsion pushing part 1523 has a clamping positioning part 15232, which is a groove or a protrusion, and the first clamping assembly 44 is used to clamp the clamping positioning part 15232.
[0157] The first clamping assembly 44 reliably interfaces with the torsion pushing part 1523 through the clamping positioning part 15232, thereby driving the piston body 152 to rotate and move. Through the cooperation of the transmission sensor assembly, the positioning groove 15231 and the positioning protrusion 1531, it can be ensured that the first clamping assembly 44 can accurately clamp the clamping positioning part 15232 when it works.
[0158] As shown in Figure 11 and 13 , in this embodiment, a second clamping assembly 22 is also installed on the rack 20, and the outer side wall of the shell 11 has a limiting groove 116, and the second clamping assembly 22 is used to clamp at the limiting groove 116 after the shell 11 is installed in the shell positioning groove 21, so that the shell 11 cannot move up and down along the axis of the shell 11.
[0159] In actual use, the second clamping assembly 22 can be in various forms, such as a telescopic electromagnet, an electric push rod, an electric clamping jaw, a pneumatic clamping jaw, etc. The second clamping assembly 22 can prevent the shell 11 from moving up and down during processing.
[0160] As shown in Figure 11 and 13 , in this embodiment, the side wall of the shell positioning groove 21 has a avoiding opening 211, and the limiting groove 116 corresponds to the avoiding opening 211.
[0161] As shown in the embodiment, the cylinder 14 is arranged eccentrically relative to the axis of the shell 11; Figure 13
[0162] The bottom wall of the shell positioning groove 21 has a through hole 212, and the cylinder 14 passes through the through hole 212;
[0163] The bottom wall of the shell 11 has a first positioning structure 115, and the bottom wall of the shell positioning groove 21 has a second positioning structure 213 matched with the first positioning structure 115, one of the first positioning structure 115 and the second positioning structure 213 is a positioning groove, and the other is a positioning column.
[0164] The first positioning structure 115 and the second positioning structure 213 are matched with each other, which can ensure the circumferential position of the shell 11 and ensure the positioning accuracy.
[0165] As shown in the embodiment, the bottom wall of the shell positioning groove 21 is provided with a trigger switch 24, and when the shell 11 is installed in place, the bottom wall of the shell 11 contacts the trigger switch 24 to trigger the trigger switch 24. Figure 13 One of the specific working forms of the shaping device in the embodiment is as follows:
[0166] Prepare the integrated shaper 10, insert one end of the metal wire 1 into the metal wire 1 locking element, then lock the locking cover 1513, and fix the metal wire 1; in actual operation, the closed part 113 can be selected to be opened, and the metal wire 1 is inserted from top to bottom, or the cylinder 14 is inserted after the metal wire 1 is complete, the piston body 152 is pushed to the top until the two positioning lugs 1531 are respectively embedded in the two positioning grooves 15231;
[0167] Install the integrated shaper 10 on the rack 20, specifically, the shell 11 is placed in the shell 11 positioning groove, and the cylinder 14 is inserted into the through hole 212. When the trigger switch 24 is triggered, the limit clamp 153 is sensed by the optical sensor assembly, the second clamping assembly 22 works to clamp the shell 11, and the first clamping assembly 44 works to clamp the torsion pushing part 1523;
[0168] Then the shaping finger 13 driving mechanism works to drive the shaping finger 13 and the connecting rod 18 to move synchronously and reciprocally, and the torsion mechanism 40 works to drive the piston assembly 15 to move up and down and rotate, so that the metal wire 1 is shaped in the shaping cavity 111;
[0169] After shaping, the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly are released, and the integrated shaper 10 is taken out from the rack 20 for standby, and at this time the shaped metal wire 1 can be stored and fixed on the integrated shaper 10;
[0170] After shaping, the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly are released, and the integrated shaper 10 is taken out from the rack 20 for standby, and at this time the shaped metal wire 1 can be stored and fixed on the integrated shaper 10;
[0171] When it is necessary to remove the metal wire 1, remove the limit clip 153, push the piston body 152 into the cylinder 14, insert the locking cover 1513 into the anti-rotation groove 142, rotate the locking cover 1513 to make the elastic claw 15121 release the metal wire 1, open the closure 113, and take out the metal wire 1.
[0172] Example 2
[0173] like Figure 14 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the end of the connecting rod 18 away from the shaping finger can be prevented from being attracted by the magnet. In this embodiment, an elastic element 50 is sleeved on the connecting rod 18. The elastic element 50 is used to give the connecting rod 18 a tendency to move outward, and the mating structure contacts and engages with the connecting rod.
[0174] This configuration allows the shaping finger 13 to have an initial position. When it cooperates with the driving member 32, the driving member 32 only needs to hold the connecting rod 18 to drive the shaping finger 13 to move inward toward the housing 11. When the driving member 32 retracts, the elastic member 50 can drive the shaping finger 13 to move outward toward the housing 11. In practical applications, the elastic member 50 can be a spring or a sheet, etc.
[0175] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the scope of patent protection of the present invention. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the description and drawings of the present invention, whether directly or indirectly applied to other related technical fields, are similarly included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
