Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of molds, and specifically to a gas-liquid hybrid press forming rapid die-changing device and method. Background Art
[0002] With the exponential growth of the demand for large-sized special-shaped thin-walled components with spatially curved axes, variable cross-sections, and variable wall thicknesses in fields such as aviation, aerospace, navigation, new energy vehicles, and deep-sea exploration equipment in China, the gas-liquid hybrid press forming technology (a gas-liquid hybrid fluid internal pressure forming method and device for large-sized thin-walled pipe fittings, patent publication number CN110834047A) breaks through the energy efficiency bottleneck of traditional forming processes, reconstructs the pipe fitting manufacturing process with the concept of green forming, and stands out among many forming methods. In the engineering application of the gas-liquid hybrid press forming system, the situation of changing molds often occurs, and the rapid die-changing technology is of great significance for the industrialized popularization and application of the gas-liquid hybrid press forming technology.
[0003] For the replacement of molds in press forming, the currently commonly used methods and devices include traditional bolt-fixed die-changing and mechanical rapid clamping die-changing. Among them, traditional bolt-fixed die-changing relies on manual disassembly and assembly, often requires horizontally moving out the press workbench for handling, and requires multiple handling operations to complete die-changing. After die-changing, manual calibration of the mold position is required, which has problems such as low die-changing efficiency and poor safety. Mechanical rapid clamping die-changing uses a die moving arm to push the mold onto the equipment backing plate, and then uses a mechanical clamping device to complete the locking of the mold. It has certain advantages compared with traditional devices, but still relies on a large amount of manual operation. It still needs to manually adjust the positions of the punch and the die head to match the mold position, which limits the flexibility of mold design. For mass industrial production, the die-changing efficiency still needs to be further improved. The existing press forming die-changing devices and methods have problems such as low die-changing efficiency, high operation complexity, poor safety, and poor mold adaptability, and are difficult to meet the requirements of mass high-efficiency production applications of gas-liquid hybrid press forming.

[0062] On the basis of Embodiment 1, as Figure 8 shown, the first oil cylinder 29 further includes an extension cross bar 41 and a first rack 42. The extension cross bar 41 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the first oil cylinder 29, and the first rack 42 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the extension cross bar 41.
[0063] As Figure 9, the press table 26 further includes a first gear 43, a second gear 44, a second rack 45, a contact rod 46, a support guide rail 47, a support back plate 48, a positioning bolt 49, a displacement cross frame 50, a rear end bracket 51, a side end base plate 52, a sliding key 53 and a rear end bottom plate 54. The first gear 43 and the second gear 44 are rotatably installed at both ends of the top of the press table 26, and the first gear 43 is located in front of the second gear 44. The sliding keys 53 are symmetrically slidably inserted into the inner part of the top end of the rear end bottom plate 54. The rear end bottom plate 54 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the press table 26. The support guide rail 47 is fixedly installed at the top end of the sliding key 53. The support guide rails 47 are symmetrically and fixedly installed at the front end of the support back plate 48. The displacement cross frame 50 is symmetrically slidably sleeved on the support guide rails 47. The contact rods 46 are symmetrically fixedly installed at the front end of the displacement cross frame 50. The positioning bolt 49 is threadedly inserted into the top end of the displacement cross frame 50. The rear end brackets 51 are symmetrically fixedly installed at the rear end of the support back plate 48. The side end base plate 52 is fixedly installed at the side end of the rear end bracket 51. The second rack 45 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the side end base plate 52.
[0064] The transmission ratio of the first gear 43 to the second gear 44 is 1:10. The second rack 45 meshes with the second gear 44, and the first rack 42 meshes with the first gear 43. The thicknesses of the second rack 45 and the first rack 42 are 1 cm, and the thicknesses of both the first gear 43 and the second gear 44 are 3 cm. Symmetrically arranged grooves adapted to the sliding keys 53 are formed at the top end of the rear end bottom plate 54. The positioning bolt 49 is vertically aligned with the support guide rail 47.
[0065] When implementing this embodiment, when the piston rod inside the first oil cylinder 29 drives the first punch 37 to approach the second die side plate 32, the extension cross bar 41 can be driven to displace the first rack 42. Through the engagement of the first rack 42 and the first gear 43, when the first rack 42 displaces, the first gear 43 and the second gear 44 can be driven to rotate. When the second gear 44 rotates, the second rack 45 can be driven to displace towards the front end. At this time, since the second rack 45 is connected to the side-end base plate 52 and can drive the support back plate 48 to displace towards the front end when displacing. By previously placing the lower die 39 and the upper die 40 on the tops of the rear end base plate 54 and the press workbench surface 26, the support back plate 48 can drive the contact rod 46 to move to contact the rear ends of the lower die 39 and the upper die 40. Thus, when the second rack 45 continuously moves towards the front end, the contact rod 46 can be driven to push the lower die 39 and the upper die 40 to move towards the front end. Subsequently, when the first punch 37 moves to contact the second die side plate 32, the contact rod 46 can push the lower die 39 and the upper die 40 to move towards the front end to the center of the top of the press workbench surface 26, thereby ensuring that the lower die 39 and the upper die 40 are displaced to the center of the top of the press workbench surface 26 for installation work. When this device is in use, the displacement cross frame 50 is slidably sleeved on the top of the support guide rail 47, so that the displacement cross frame 50 can slide and adjust on the support guide rail 47, thereby enabling the support displacement cross frame 50 to drive the contact rod 46 to move to a specified position. Subsequently, when the displacement cross frame 50 moves to a suitable position, the positioning bolt 49 can be screwed to be fastened to the support guide rail 47, so that the displacement cross frame 50 can be restricted and fixed, thereby preventing the contact rod 46 from sliding again and completing the adjustment work of the contact rod 46. Moreover, by using different transmission ratios for the first gear 43 and the second gear 44, when the piston rod inside the first oil cylinder 29 displaces a short distance, the support back plate 48 can be driven to move a large distance towards the front end, increasing the distance that the support back plate 48 moves towards the front end, facilitating the pushing of the lower die 39 and the upper die 40 to the center of the top of the press workbench surface 26. At the same time, by staggering the second rack 45 and the first rack 42 vertically, the interference between the second rack 45 and the first rack 42 can be avoided. And when the support back plate 48 displaces, the sliding key 53 can be driven to slide in the slot inside the top of the rear end base plate 54, enabling the support back plate 48 to displace along a straight line to complete the work.
