Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of copper strip recycling equipment technology, specifically a copper strip flattening and winding device after stamping the lead frame of a chip. Background Technology

[0002] The lead frame of a chip is typically formed by repeatedly stamping the desired shape onto a copper strip, also known as a copper strip. The stamped copper strip has multiple rows of through-holes arranged along its length, such as oblong through-holes on both sides and rectangular through-holes in the middle. The two rows of oblong through-holes somewhat resemble the shape of film reels. The copper strip after stamping the chip lead frame is generally recycled by a winding device.

[0003] In the actual winding and recycling process, the rolled-up parts with the punched holes facing downwards or upwards, such as large rolled edges and small burrs, must be flattened. Otherwise, problems such as loosening, wrinkling or delamination of the copper strip will occur during the winding process, affecting the flatness and winding quality of the wound copper strip and hindering the effect of subsequent recycling.

[0004] However, existing technologies for flattening the downward or upward curled portions of the copper strip's stamped edges, such as large curls and small burrs, all employ at least one, and usually multiple, pressure rollers. In production practice, this pressure roller flattening method has the following shortcomings: 1. The curled portions of the stamped edges, such as large curls and small burrs, occupy only a small portion of the copper strip area. Using large-area pressure rollers with evenly distributed force results in poor compaction after rolling, and the phenomenon of the curled portions, such as large curls and small burrs, rebounding and opening up is quite common. 2. To flatten the small portion of the copper strip's curled edges and burrs, multiple high-power motors are required, leading to relatively high energy consumption. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a copper strip flattening and winding device for the lead frame of a stamped chip that is highly targeted at the rolled portion of the punched edge, such as large rolled edges and small burrs, with concentrated force, good punching and flattening effect, and relatively energy saving.

[0006] The technical solution of the present invention is to provide a copper strip flattening and winding device after stamping the lead frame of a chip, including a frame, a winding mechanism with a copper strip take-out structure, and a copper strip channel with a copper strip inlet and a copper strip outlet.

[0007] The front end of the frame has a copper belt drive wheel assembly. The copper belt drive wheel in the assembly has multiple radial protrusions on its circumferential surface that are spaced along the circumference and engage with multiple punches in the copper belt. The rear end of the frame has a copper belt tensioning mechanism that presses and tightens the copper belt when the copper belt drive wheel stops rotating.

[0008] The frame adjacent to the copper strip drive wheel assembly has a first flattening mechanism including a liner and multiple punches for flattening the rolled-up portion of the copper strip punched edge;

[0009] The frame adjacent to the first leveling mechanism has a second leveling mechanism, which includes a liner and multiple punches and is used to level the rolled edge of the copper strip punch.

[0010] With the above structure, the copper strip flattening and winding device behind the lead frame of the stamped chip of the present invention has the following advantages:

[0011] The core invention is that the copper strip tensioning mechanism first tensions the copper strip to be flattened, causing it to adhere to the backing plate and use the backing plate as a rigid abutment against the substrate. Multiple punches, precisely aligned with the positions of the large rolled edges and small burrs at the punching edges, simultaneously and point-to-point flatten these areas. This small-area flattening, rather than the large-scale rolling of existing pressure rollers, provides targeted flattening of the large rolled edges and small burrs, with precise positioning, high pressure, and concentrated force. This results in a good effect of compacting and flattening these areas while saving energy. Furthermore, the device is relatively small in size, thus reducing equipment costs.

[0012] Furthermore, both the first and second flattening mechanisms have the following structures: a first cylinder is fixed on the frame away from the liner; a horizontal sliding plate is fixed to the free end of the piston rod of the first cylinder, which is slidably fitted onto the frame; the horizontal sliding plate has an inclined elongated hole; a first vertical sliding plate is vertically fitted onto the frame; one end of the first vertical sliding plate has a sliding post that is slidably fitted into the inclined elongated hole to allow the first vertical sliding plate to slide up and down under the drive of the horizontal sliding plate; the other end of the first vertical sliding plate is fixed to a punch mounting plate; the punch mounting plate has multiple large punches and multiple small punches with downward or upward flipping parts at the edge of the flattening punch. With the above structure, both the first and second flattening mechanisms are simple in structure, stable and reliable in performance, further ensuring accurate positioning, high pressure, concentrated force, good edge and burr compaction and flattening effect, and relatively low energy consumption and equipment costs.

[0013] Furthermore, the punch mounting plate includes a first mounting plate fixed to the other end of the first vertical slide plate and oriented horizontally, and a second mounting plate located away from the first vertical slide plate and oriented horizontally; multiple guide posts are fixed on the first mounting plate; the multiple large punches and multiple small punches are fixed on the second mounting plate, and the second mounting plate has multiple first guide holes for the multiple guide posts to pass through; the liner plate includes a liner plate body fixed on the frame and a guide plate, the guide plate being located on the inner side of the liner plate body, and a copper strip channel for accommodating copper strip and allowing the copper strip to move longitudinally linearly between the liner plate body and the guide plate, the guide plate having multiple second guide holes for the guide posts to slide up and down, multiple large punch guide holes for the multiple large punches to slide up and down, and multiple small punch guide holes for the multiple small punches to slide up and down. The above structure facilitates the fixing and installation of the large punch, small punch, guide post, and punch mounting plate. It also facilitates the installation and sliding fit of the large punch, small punch, guide post, and liner plate, such as the sliding fit with the guide plate. Furthermore, it facilitates the fit between the punch mounting plate and the frame, and the fixing of the liner plate to the frame. This makes the up-and-down sliding of the large punch and small punch more flexible, stable, and reliable. It further ensures the technical effects of accurate positioning, high pressure, concentrated force, good edge curling and burr compaction and flattening effect, and relatively energy saving.

[0014] Furthermore, both the first and second mounting plates are vertically slidably fitted onto the frame. Multiple compression springs exist between the first and second mounting plates, each spring fitting onto its respective spring mounting post fixed to the first mounting plate. The two ends of the springs abut against the first and second mounting plates respectively. The second mounting plate has spring mounting post holes for the spring mounting posts to slide up and down. This structure makes the first mounting plate's action of pushing the second mounting plate and driving the large and small punches to flatten more flexible, stable, and reliable. The compression springs buffer the punches on the second mounting plate, preventing long-term direct impact that could affect service life. This further ensures precise positioning, high pressure, concentrated force, good edge and burr removal and flattening effects, and relatively energy savings.

[0015] Furthermore, the first leveling mechanism is used to level the downward-curved portion of the punched edge of the copper strip; the second leveling mechanism is used to level the upward-curved portion of the punched edge of the copper strip. With this structure, its advantages are significant: downward-curved portions of the copper strip, such as large downward curls and small downward burrs, are directly compacted and flattened onto the bottom surface of the copper strip by the punch impacting upwards, avoiding the phenomenon of rebound and opening up. Similarly, upward-curved portions of the copper strip, such as large upward curls and small upward burrs, are directly compacted and flattened onto the top surface of the copper strip by the punch impacting downwards, avoiding the phenomenon of rebound and opening up. Moreover, in the actual leveling process, the first and second leveling mechanisms simultaneously press during the one-time tensioning, leveling both the upward and downward curled portions at the same time, significantly improving the leveling efficiency. Furthermore, the first leveling mechanism adjacent to the copper strip drive wheel assembly is used to level the downward-curling portions of the copper strip, such as large downward-facing curls and small downward-facing burrs. This results in a relatively low height at both ends and a relatively high height in the middle of the entire device, facilitating installation and routine maintenance.

[0016] Furthermore, the copper strip tensioning mechanism includes a slide table that slides longitudinally on the frame. A pad and a vertical second cylinder are fixed on the slide table. Above the pad is the free end of the piston rod of the second cylinder, which is used to press or release the copper strip on the top surface of the pad. The cylinder body of the horizontal third cylinder, used to tension the copper strip, is fixed to the frame, and the free end of the piston rod is fixed to the slide table. With the above structure, the copper strip tensioning mechanism is simple in structure, and the process of pressing and tensioning the copper strip is stable, reliable, flexible, and labor-saving. This further ensures good edge curling and burr compaction and flattening effects while relatively saving energy.

[0017] Furthermore, the vertical cross-sectional shape of the horizontal copper strip channel is rectangular or C-shaped; the height of the copper strip channel is 3 to 4 times the thickness of the horizontal copper strip. This structure not only facilitates the convenient and quick passage of the copper strip from the inlet to the outlet, but also helps to initially gather and converge the downward or upward curled edges of the copper strip, further ensuring the technical effect of the large and small punches in smoothing out the curled edges and burrs in one go.

[0018] Furthermore, the first motor driving the copper belt drive wheel and the copper belt drive wheel are both mounted on a second vertical slide plate. The second vertical slide plate is slidably fitted onto the frame. The frame has a fourth cylinder that drives the second vertical slide plate to rise so that the two rows of radial protrusions on the circumference of the copper belt drive wheel engage into the two rows of regularly arranged waist-shaped through holes of the copper belt, or to fall so that the two rows of radial protrusions on the circumference of the copper belt drive wheel disengage from the two rows of regularly arranged waist-shaped through holes of the copper belt. The top of the radial protrusion is tapered to facilitate engagement into the waist-shaped through holes of the copper belt. The horizontal strip seat fixed on the frame has an upward-opening C-shaped copper belt channel. The horizontal strip seat below the copper belt has an elongated through hole extending along the length direction and into which the two side plates of the copper belt drive wheel extend so that the radial protrusions engage with the waist-shaped holes. With the above structure, the radial protrusion of the copper strip drive wheel can be engaged into the waist-shaped through hole of the copper strip according to different needs of the stamping operation process, so as to drive the copper strip forward or tighten the copper strip to facilitate the smoothing of the rolled edge and burrs, or to move the copper strip drive wheel away from the copper strip so that the beginning of the copper strip can enter the copper strip channel from the copper strip inlet and pass through the copper strip outlet, etc.

[0019] Furthermore, a second motor driving the winding reel is fixed to the frame. The central shaft of the winding reel's drum is fixed and coaxial with the motor shaft. An inner baffle is fixed on the central shaft. Multiple radially extending first winding claw plates are on the outer circle of the inner baffle. A central sleeve slides axially on the central shaft and is circumferentially limited. Multiple connecting plates are fixed at equal intervals along the circumference on the circumferential wall of the central sleeve. The number of connecting plates is the same as the number of arc-shaped plates. The inner side of each arc-shaped plate is hinged to each connecting plate via a pair of hinge plates. The axial protrusion of the inner end of each arc-shaped plate... The column extends into and slides within an elongated through-hole extending along the radius of the inner baffle. Between the central sleeve and the central shaft, there is a rubber limiting ring and a matching circular limiting groove that confines multiple arc-shaped plates of the drum at their largest diameter position for winding the copper strip. The outer end of the connecting plate has a hook structure for manually pulling the central sleeve outward to overcome the elastic force of the axial limiting ring and to move the central sleeve axially outward, thus reducing the diameter of the drum composed of multiple arc-shaped plates. Each arc-shaped plate has multiple detachable second-stage winding claw plates connected to its outer end. With this structure, the winding mechanism and the copper strip removal mechanism are simple, and the winding process and copper strip removal operation are convenient, stable, and reliable.

[0037] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these descriptions of specific embodiments are for the purpose of aiding understanding the present invention, but do not constitute a limitation thereof. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various specific embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0038] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown.

[0039] The invention, entitled "Copper Strip Flattening and Winding Device for the Lead Frame of a Stamped Chip," can also be described as: a device for flattening and winding the copper strip behind the lead frame of a stamped chip. A preferred embodiment of the copper strip flattening and winding device for the lead frame of a stamped chip of the present invention includes a frame, a winding mechanism 6 with a copper strip take-out structure, and a copper strip channel with a copper strip inlet 4511 and a copper strip outlet 5111.

[0040] rack such Figure 1 The components shown, from right to left, are the copper strip drive wheel frame 41, the frame of the first flattening mechanism 31, the frame of the second flattening mechanism 32, the copper strip tensioning mechanism frame 51, and the winding mechanism frame 61. The copper strip drive wheel frame 41, the frame of the first flattening mechanism 31, and the frame of the second flattening mechanism 32 can all be fixed together to the same elongated first base plate 1 by multiple bolts. This first base plate 1 can be fixed to the floor using multiple anchor bolts. The winding mechanism frame 6 can be a separate second base plate 611 fixed to the floor using multiple anchor bolts.

[0041] The vertical cross-sectional shape of the horizontal copper strip channel can be rectangular or C-shaped. A rectangle is easy to understand; for example, a horizontally rectangular copper strip channel with a length greater than its height: such as the first rectangular copper strip channel 331 within the liner 33 of the first and second flattening mechanisms 31 and the second rectangular copper strip channel 511 on the copper strip tensioning mechanism 5. The C-shape is only a general shape; strictly speaking, it can be described as a horizontally rectangular channel with a notch on its top plate, the width of which is narrower than the width of the copper strip 2, such as the C-shaped copper strip channel 451 on the top of the copper strip drive wheel frame 41 outside the right end of the first flattening mechanism 31. The height of the copper strip channels, including rectangular channels such as the first rectangular copper strip channel 331 and the second rectangular copper strip channel 511, and the C-shaped copper strip channel 451, can all be 3 to 4 times the thickness of the horizontal copper strip 2. For example, if the copper strip thickness is 2 mm, the copper strip channel thickness can be 6 mm to 8 mm. The copper strip 2 extends horizontally along both the longitudinal and longitudinal directions. Figure 1 As shown, the copper strip inlet 4511 can be located at the right end of the C-shaped copper strip channel 451 at the top of the copper strip drive wheel frame 41, and the copper strip outlet 5111 can be located at the left end of the second rectangular copper strip channel 511 on the copper strip tensioning mechanism 5.

[0042] The frame adjacent to the copper strip drive wheel assembly 4, such as the first base plate 1, has a first flattening mechanism 31 including a liner 33 and multiple punches for flattening the edge of the punch 21 of the copper strip 2. The first flattening mechanism 31 can be a flattening mechanism for flattening the downward-curved edge of the punch 21 of the copper strip 2, such as a large downward curl and a small downward burr.

[0043] The frame adjacent to the first flattening mechanism 31, such as the first base plate 1, has a second flattening mechanism 32, which includes a liner plate 33 and multiple punches for flattening the rolled edges of the punched holes 21 of the copper strip 2. The second flattening mechanism 32 can be a flattening mechanism for flattening the upward rolled edges of the punched holes 21 of the copper strip 2, such as large upward rolled edges and small upward burrs. The first flattening mechanism 31 and the second flattening mechanism 32 can be collectively referred to as the flattening mechanism 3.

[0044] It is not difficult to understand that, for large rolled edges of the punched hole 21, the purpose of flattening is to make the rolled edge close to the copper strip 2 and press it flat. For small burrs on the rolled edges of the punched hole 21, the purpose of flattening is to make the burrs flush with the copper strip or close to the copper strip 2 and press them flat.

[0045] The edges of the punched holes 21 are such as the waist-shaped through holes 211 or waist-shaped holes on both sides of the width of the copper strip 2 and the rectangular through holes 212 or rectangular holes in the middle of the width of the copper strip 2.

[0046] The specific structure of the leveling mechanism 3, namely the first leveling mechanism 31 and the second leveling mechanism 32, can be as follows:

[0047] A first cylinder 34 is fixed on the first base plate 1 of the frame. The free end of the first piston rod 341 of the first cylinder 34, referred to as the first free end 3411, is fixed with a horizontal sliding plate 36 that is horizontally slidably fitted within a horizontal rectangular sliding hole 351 on two vertical plates 35 of the frame. The horizontal sliding plate 36 can be a rectangular sliding plate, and its length dimension can be greater than its height dimension, and its height dimension can be greater than its thickness dimension. The first free end 3411 is fixed to the horizontal sliding plate 36, for example, by using a T-shaped plug and a T-shaped slot for connection and fixation. The horizontal sliding plate 36 has an inclined elongated through hole 361. A first rectangular vertical sliding plate 37 is vertically slidably fitted within a vertical rectangular sliding hole 381 on a horizontal plate 38 of the frame. One end of the first vertical sliding plate 37, such as the lower end of the first flattening mechanism 31 or the upper end of the second flattening mechanism 32, is fixed with a sliding post 39 that is slidably fitted within the inclined elongated through hole 361 to allow the first vertical sliding plate 37 to slide up and down under the drive of the horizontal sliding plate 36. The other end of the first vertical slide plate 37, such as the upper end of the first flattening mechanism 31 or the lower end of the second flattening mechanism 32, is fixed to a punch mounting plate 310, such as by welding or by screwing multiple screws. The punch mounting plate 310 is fixed with downward-turned edges of the flattening punch 21, such as multiple large downward-turned rolled edges (e.g., two large punches 314) and multiple small downward-turned burrs (e.g., eight small punches 315); or, the punch mounting plate 310 is fixed with upward-turned edges of the flattening punch 21, such as multiple large upward-turned rolled edges (e.g., two large punches 314) and multiple small upward-turned burrs (e.g., eight small punches 315). It is easy to understand that the large punches 314 and small punches 315, from a cross-sectional perspective, can punch all the turned edges of the two waist-shaped through holes 211 on both sides of the copper strip 2 and the rectangular through hole 212 in the middle. On the two vertical plates 35 perpendicular to each other and having horizontal rectangular sliding holes 351, there may be a waist-shaped vertical hole 317 on each plate to facilitate operation and avoid interference with the sliding column 39. The waist-shaped vertical hole 317 may also be called a vertical waist-shaped hole.

[0048] The punch mounting plate 310 includes a first mounting plate 3101, which is fixed (e.g., welded) to the other end of the first vertical slide plate 37 (such as the upper end of the first vertical slide plate 37 in the first punching mechanism 31) or the lower end of the first vertical slide plate 37 in the second punching mechanism 32, and is horizontally oriented. A second mounting plate 3102, which is horizontally oriented and located away from the first vertical slide plate 37, is also horizontally oriented. In the first punching mechanism 31, the first mounting plate 3101 is located at the lower part, and the second mounting plate 3102 is located at the upper part of the first mounting plate 3101. In the second punching mechanism 32, the first mounting plate 3101 is located at the upper part, and the second mounting plate 3102 is located at the lower part of the first mounting plate 3101. Both the first mounting plate 3101 and the second mounting plate 3102 are vertically slidably fitted onto the frame. There are multiple compression springs 313 between the first mounting plate 3101 and the second mounting plate 3102. Each compression spring 313 is fitted onto its respective compression spring mounting post 318 fixed on the first mounting plate 3101. The two ends of the compression spring 313 abut against the first mounting plate 3101 and the second mounting plate 3102 respectively. The second mounting plate 3102 has compression spring mounting post holes 31022 for the compression spring mounting post 318 to slide up and down.

[0049] For ease of manufacture and installation, the first mounting plate 3101 can be composed of two plates, upper and lower, which can be connected by screws and threaded holes to form the first mounting plate 3101. The second mounting plate 3102 can also be composed of two plates, upper and lower, which can be connected by screws and threaded holes to form the second mounting plate 3102.

[0050] Multiple guide posts 312 are fixed on the first mounting plate 3101. The multiple large punches 314 and multiple small punches 315 are fixed on the second mounting plate 3102, which has multiple first guide holes 31021 for the multiple guide posts 312 to pass through.

[0051] The aforementioned liner plate 33 includes a liner plate body 332 and a guide plate 333 fixed to a horizontally mounted fixed plate 316 on the frame. The guide plate 333 is located on the inner side of the liner plate body 332, i.e., the lower side of the first flattening mechanism 31 and the upper side of the second flattening mechanism 32. The liner plate body 332 may also be provided with multiple, such as four, third guide holes 3321 for the guide posts 312 to slide up and down. Between the liner plate body 332 and the guide plate 333, there is a copper strip channel, such as a first rectangular copper strip channel 331, for accommodating the longitudinal and horizontal linear movement of the copper strip 2. Both the guide plate 333 and the fixed plate 316 have multiple, such as four, second guide holes for the multiple guide posts 312 to slide up and down, multiple, such as two large punches 314 to slide up and down, and multiple, such as eight small punches 315 to slide up and down. The fixed plate 316 described above can be referred to as the top plate in the first flattening mechanism 31 and as the bottom plate in the second flattening mechanism 32. It is easy to understand that the vertical positional relationship between the fixed plate 316, the liner body 332, and the guide plate 333 is as follows: In the first flattening mechanism 31, the fixed plate 316 is at the bottom and fixed to the frame of the first flattening mechanism 31; the guide plate 333 is in the middle and fixed to the fixed plate 316; and the liner body 332 is at the top and fixed to the guide plate 333. In the second flattening mechanism 32, the fixed plate 316 is at the top and fixed to the frame of the second flattening mechanism 32; the guide plate 333 is in the middle and fixed to the fixed plate 316; and the liner body 332 is at the bottom and fixed to the guide plate 333. The second guide hole on guide plate 333 can be called second guide hole A, and can be labeled 3331; the large punch guide hole on guide plate 333 can be called large punch guide hole A, and can be labeled 3332; the small punch guide hole on guide plate 333 can be called small punch guide hole A, and can be labeled 3333. The second guide hole on fixed plate 316 can be called second guide hole B, and can be labeled 3161; the large punch guide hole on fixed plate 316 can be called large punch guide hole B, and can be labeled 3162; the small punch guide hole on fixed plate 316 can be called small punch guide hole B, and can be labeled 3163.

[0052] The frame described in the above four paragraphs can be understood as follows: the frame of the first flattening mechanism 31 refers to the components such as the horizontal slide plate 36, the first vertical slide plate 37, the first mounting plate 3101, the second mounting plate 3102, and the liner plate 33 that are mounted on the first flattening mechanism 31; and the frame of the second flattening mechanism 32 refers to the components such as the horizontal slide plate 36, the first vertical slide plate 37, the first mounting plate 3101, the second mounting plate 3102, and the liner plate 33 that are mounted on the second flattening mechanism 32.

[0053] It is easy to understand that the first leveling mechanism 31 and the second leveling mechanism 32 have the same structure, only their directions are exactly opposite. For example, the first piston rod 341 of the first cylinder 34 of the first leveling mechanism 31 moves from bottom to top, while the first piston rod 341 of the first cylinder 34 of the second leveling mechanism 32 moves from top to bottom. Unlike the first leveling mechanism 31, a rectangular support frame 311 can be provided between the second leveling mechanism 32 and the first base plate 1. Alternatively, the frame of the second leveling mechanism 32 can have one more support frame 311 than the frame of the first leveling mechanism 31. It is easy to understand that the frames of both the first and second leveling mechanisms include two vertical plates 35, a horizontal plate 38, and a fixed plate 316. The support frame 311 can also be considered as part of the frame of the second leveling mechanism 32.

[0054] The front end of the frame, such as the first base plate 1, is as follows Figure 1 The right end shown has a copper belt drive wheel assembly 4. The copper belt drive wheel 42 in the copper belt drive wheel assembly 4 has multiple radial protrusions 4211 that are spaced apart along the circumference and engage with multiple punches 21 of the copper belt 2. The frame, such as the rear end of the first base plate 1, has a copper belt tensioning mechanism 5 that presses and tensions the copper belt 2 when the copper belt drive wheel 42 stops rotating.

[0055] like Figure 3 As shown, the copper strip tensioning mechanism 5 includes a slide table 52 that slides longitudinally and horizontally on a horizontal slide rail of a slide seat on a frame such as the copper strip tensioning mechanism frame 51. The top of the inverted T-shaped copper strip tensioning mechanism frame 51 also serves as a slide seat, with the top surface of the slide seat being the slide rail. The bottom surface of the slide table 52 is a groove that mates with the slide rail, such as a dovetail rail mates with a dovetail groove (not shown in the figure). A pad 53 and a vertical second cylinder 54 are fixed on the slide table 52. Above the pad 53 is the free end of the piston rod of the second cylinder 54, used to press or release the copper strip 2 on the top surface of the pad 53. Specifically, a vertical sliding block 541 can be fixed to the free end of the piston rod of the second cylinder 54. The sliding block 541 slides within the vertical sliding hole 5421 of the cylinder seat 542 fixed on the slide table 52. The piston rod of the second cylinder 54 can be called the second piston rod, and the free end can be called the second free end.

[0056] like Figure 3 As shown, the cylinder body 551 of the third cylinder 55 used for tensioning the copper strip 2 in the horizontal direction is fixed to the slide of the frame, such as the copper strip tensioning mechanism frame 51, that is, fixed to the copper strip tensioning mechanism frame 51. The free end of the third piston rod 552 of the third cylinder 55, which can be called the third free end 5521, is fixed to the slide table 52. The slide table 52 slides both longitudinally and horizontally.

[0057] like Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, in the copper belt drive wheel assembly 4, the first motor 43 that drives the copper belt drive wheel 42 to rotate and the copper belt drive wheel 42 are both mounted on a second vertical slide plate 44. The second vertical slide plate 44 is slidably fitted on the vertical slide rail 411 of the frame, such as the copper belt drive wheel frame 41. The first base plate 1 of the frame has a fourth cylinder 46 that drives the second vertical slide plate 44 to rise so that the two rows of radial protrusions 4211 on the circumference of the two side plate wheels 421 of the copper belt drive wheel 42 engage into the two rows of regularly arranged punches 21, such as waist-shaped through holes 211, of the copper belt 2, or to fall so that the two rows of radial protrusions 4211 on the circumference of the two side plate wheels 421 of the copper belt drive wheel 42 disengage from the two rows of regularly arranged punches 21, such as waist-shaped through holes 211, of the copper belt 2. In other words, the first base plate 1 of the frame has a fourth cylinder 46 that drives the second vertical slide plate 44 to rise or fall. When the second vertical slide plate 44 rises, it drives the copper belt drive wheel 42 to rise, causing the two rows of radial protrusions 4211 on the circumference of the two side plate wheels 421 of the copper belt drive wheel 42 to engage with the two rows of regularly arranged punches 21, such as waist-shaped through holes 211, in the copper belt 2 to drive the copper belt 2 to move forward in a straight line in the longitudinal and horizontal direction. When the machine stops, it cooperates with the copper belt tensioning mechanism 5 to tighten the copper belt 2 so as to flatten the flipped part of the edge of the punch 21. When the second vertical slide plate 44 falls, it drives the copper belt drive wheel 42 to fall, causing the two rows of radial protrusions 421 on the circumference of the two side plate wheels 421 of the copper belt drive wheel 42 to disengage from the two rows of regularly arranged punches 21, such as waist-shaped through holes 211, in the copper belt 2, so that the beginning end of the copper belt 2 can pass through the copper belt channel from the copper belt inlet 4511 and exit from the copper belt outlet 5111, etc. The radial protrusion 421, such as the radial protrusion 421 with a square cross-section, has a tapered top 4211 at its tip to facilitate engagement with the waist-shaped through hole 211 of the copper strip 2. The tapered 4211 can also be called a tapered section or a tapered part. The horizontal strip seat 45 fixed on the frame, such as the frame of the first flattening mechanism 31, has a C-shaped copper strip channel 451 with an opening 4531 facing upward. The horizontal strip seat 45 below the copper strip 2 has two side plate wheels 421 extending along the length direction and into which the copper strip drive wheel 42 extends so that the radial protrusion 4211 engages with the waist-shaped through hole 211 and is parallel to each other. It is not difficult to understand that above the two elongated through holes 452 is a C-shaped copper strip channel 451. The top surface of the C-shaped copper strip channel 451 has two top plates 453. Both top plates 453 are located directly above their respective elongated through holes 452. Between the two top plates 453, there is an opening 4531 or notch that extends along the length direction.

[0058] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown.

[0059] The specific structure of the winding mechanism 6 can be as follows: a second motor 62 that drives the winding reel 63 to rotate is fixed on a frame, such as the winding mechanism frame 61. The central shaft 6311 of the winding reel 63's drum 631 is fixed and coaxial with the motor shaft of the second motor 62. An inner baffle 632 is fixed on the central shaft 6311. Multiple first winding claw plates 6321, such as four radially extending plates, are on the outer circle of the inner baffle 632. A central sleeve 6312 slides axially on the central shaft 6311 and is circumferentially limited. Multiple connecting plates 6313, such as four connecting plates, are fixed at equal intervals along the circumference on the circumferential wall of the central sleeve 6312. The number of plates 6313 is the same as the number of arc plates 6315. For example, there are also four arc plates 6315. The inner side of each arc plate 6315 is hinged to each connecting plate 6313 by a pair of hinge plates 6314. The axial protrusion 63151 at the inner end of each arc plate 6315 extends into and slides in a long through hole 6322 extending along the radius line of the inner baffle 632. There is a rubber limiting ring and a matching circular limiting groove between the central sleeve 6312 and the central shaft 6311 to limit the multiple arc plates 6315 of the drum 631, such as four arc plates 6315, to the position with the largest diameter and used for winding the copper strip 2. The outer end of the connecting plate 6313 has a hooking structure for attaching hooks and manually pulling the center sleeve 6312 to overcome the elastic force of the axial limit of the rubber limiting ring, and to make the center sleeve 6312 move axially outward to reduce the diameter of the drum. This structure consists of multiple arc-shaped plates, such as a pair of hooking holes 63131 on two symmetrical connecting plates 6313. The outer end of each arc plate 6315 is detachably connected to multiple, such as four, second stop winding claw plates 633. The detachable connection structure can be existing technology. For example, each second stop winding plate 633 can have two insertion holes 6331 at its root, and each arc plate can also have two insertion holes at its outer end. Two pins are inserted into their respective insertion holes with an interference fit to fix them for winding. When the copper coil needs to be removed, the pins can be pulled out with a little force to remove the multiple second stop winding plates 633. Screws, screw holes, and threaded holes can also be used instead of pins. It is easy to understand that the number of the first stop claw plate 6321 and the second stop claw plate 633 can be equal, such as four pieces each, and each pair of the first stop claw plate 6321 and the second stop claw plate 633 are located at both ends of the same arc-shaped plate 6315. The shapes of the first stop claw plate 6321 and the second stop claw plate 633 can be roughly the same.

[0060] There may be multiple transition pulleys 64 between the copper strip outlet 5111 and the winding reel 63 of the winding mechanism 6.

[0061] The winding mechanism 6 may also include a structure for detachably fixing the head end of the copper strip 2. For example, a radial protrusion may be fixed to the outer surface of an arc-shaped plate, and the head end of the copper strip may have a hanging hole on the radial protrusion. During winding, the strip is locked in place. When the copper roll is removed, the radial protrusion naturally disengages from the hanging hole at the head end of the copper strip as the diameter of the multiple arc-shaped plates (e.g., four) on the drum shrinks. Alternatively, the head end of the copper strip may have a 90° bent piece that engages in a waist-shaped through hole extending along the width of an arc-shaped plate, allowing for normal winding. When the copper roll is removed, the diameter of the four arc-shaped plates on the drum shrinks, and the head end of the copper strip can be disengaged from the arc-shaped plate by using a tool such as a screwdriver to push it in the opposite direction.

[0062] When the wound copper coil needs to be removed, a pair of hooks can be used to hook the pair of hook holes 63131 on the connecting plate 6313 to overcome the elastic force of the axial limit of the rubber limit ring and pull it outward in the opposite direction to the inner baffle 632. At this time, the axial protrusions 63151 at the inner end of the arc plate 6315 all slide along the elongated through hole 6322 on the inner baffle 632 toward the center of the inner baffle 632, so that the diameter of the multiple arc plates 6315 of the drum 631 shrinks. Then, by removing the respective pins and taking off the four second-stop winding claw plates 633, the copper coil can be removed.

[0063] It is easy to understand that the terms "liner plate 33" and "pad plate 53" are interchangeable, and "liner plate 33" can also be called "anvil plate." The large punch 314, small punch 315, liner plate 33, and pad plate 53 are all made of steel; that is, except for the motor and cylinder which are purchased externally, all other components of this device can be made of steel. The copper belt drive wheel 42 can also be considered a ratchet. The radial protrusion 421 can also be called a radial tooth. The structure of the central shaft 6311 and the central sleeve 6312 sliding axially and being circumferentially limited can adopt existing spline and spline groove structures. The above-mentioned fixing can be welding or screwing. This device may also include a main controller such as a PLC chip or computer, which is electrically connected to all cylinders and all motors and controls their operation. The motor may include a variable-speed gearbox or a self-regulating motor such as a servo motor or stepper motor.
