[0001] This invention relates to the field of automotive parts thermoforming technology, specifically to an automotive parts thermoforming equipment and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] Thermoforming of automotive parts is a process in which sheet metal (such as high-strength steel) is heated to the austenitizing temperature, then rapidly stamped and quenched.

[0003] However, in the existing technology, automotive parts thermoforming equipment lacks an efficient and precise material handling mechanism after processing, which makes the parts easily damaged due to unstable clamping during the removal process. At the same time, the material handling speed is slow and cannot be efficiently connected with the thermoforming and stamping processes, which seriously affects the overall processing efficiency. Furthermore, the coordination and positioning accuracy between the various components of the equipment is insufficient, which can easily cause stamping deviations and make it difficult to guarantee the stability of product quality. Summary of the Invention

One end of the push rod is rotatably connected to a connecting rod, and the other end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to a branch of the bent rod.

[0006] Preferably, a drive wheel is rotatably connected to the end of the bent rod, the drive wheel is located between the bent rod and the support base, and a drive belt is engaged between the drive wheel and one end of the positioning rod.

[0007] Preferably, a geared motor is fixedly installed on one side of the support base, and the output end of the geared motor is fixedly connected to the transmission wheel.

[0008] Preferably, a first electric cylinder is fixedly installed on one side of the positioning rod, a limit block is fixedly installed at the end of the movable plate, one end of the piston rod of the first electric cylinder is fixedly connected to the limit block, the limit block passes through the positioning rod, and a guide groove is provided at the junction of the positioning rod and the limit block.

[0011] Preferably, an electric heating plate is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the equipment frame, and a support platform overlaps the surface of the electric heating plate, with the support platform located at the end of the clamping rod.

[0012] Preferably, positioning frames are fixedly installed on both sides of the fixed frame, and guide rods are slidably connected inside the positioning frames. Push plates are fixedly installed at the ends of the guide rods, and the guide rods and clamping rods are located on both sides of the support platform, respectively.

[0013] A method of using a thermoforming equipment for automotive parts includes: S1. Equipment Start-up and Parameter Setting: Turn on the equipment power, check the operating status of the motor and belt drive components, geared motor, first electric cylinder, second electric cylinder, stamping machine and electric heating plate, set the heating temperature and holding time of the electric heating plate according to the material of the parts, adjust the stamping pressure and stamping speed of the stamping machine, and set the displacement stroke and clamping force parameters of the material taking mechanism through the control panel to ensure that each parameter meets the process requirements. S2. Material feeding and heating: Place the raw materials of the automotive parts to be processed in the center of the support platform, start the electric heating plate to start heating, and monitor the temperature of the raw materials in real time through the temperature sensor during the heating process. When the set temperature is reached, keep it at the temperature for a period of time to make the material structure uniformly austenitized, in preparation for thermoforming. S3. Material handling mechanism operation and transfer: After heating is completed, the motor and belt drive assembly start, and the bending rod swings through the push rod and connecting rod, so that the positioning rod is lowered to the top of the support platform. At the same time, the geared motor drives the transmission wheel to adjust the orientation of the positioning rod through the transmission belt, so that the movable plate is aligned with the raw material. The first electric cylinder pushes the limit block to adjust the horizontal position of the movable plate, so that the clamping rod is directly above the raw material. The second electric cylinder extends and drives the clamping rod to close through the connecting block and transmission rod. After clamping the raw material, the motor and belt drive assembly rotate in reverse to transfer the raw material to the support platform position directly below the stamping die. S4. Stamping and Positioning: After the material handling mechanism places the raw material on the support table, the guide rod in the positioning frame pushes the raw material from both sides through the push plate to accurately position it in the center of the stamping die. After confirming that the positioning is correct, the stamping machine starts, and the piston rod drives the stamping die to move down to stamp the raw material. During the stamping process, the cooling system in the die works simultaneously to quickly quench and strengthen the formed parts. S5. Unloading and subsequent processing: After stamping is completed, the stamping die retracts, the guide rod pusher pushes the formed parts toward the clamping rod, the unloading mechanism moves again, the clamping rod closes and clamps the parts, and they are transferred to the unloading station. The operator performs deburring, dimensional inspection and other subsequent processing on the unloaded parts to complete the entire thermoforming process. S6. Equipment Shutdown and Maintenance: After the workday ends, turn off the equipment power, clean the oxide scale and other debris from the surface of the electric heating plate and support platform, check the wear of the stamping die and apply anti-rust oil, and regularly check and maintain the belt tension of the motor and belt drive components, the sealing performance of the electric cylinder, and the amount of lubricating oil in the geared motor to ensure the stable performance of each component of the equipment and provide a guarantee for subsequent production.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. In this invention, a material-grabbing mechanism is used to clamp automotive parts. A slider slides on a movable plate, simultaneously driving symmetrically distributed clamping rods to open and close, thereby clamping and releasing the parts. Throughout the process, a motor and belt drive assembly provide power for transfer, a second electric cylinder controls the clamping force and range of the clamping rods, and the sliding connection between the movable plate and the slider ensures the stability and accuracy of the clamping action. All components work together to achieve automatic material picking, transfer, and clamping of automotive parts. This method can effectively solve the problem of easy damage to parts during removal after thermoforming and can significantly improve the material picking speed and overall processing efficiency.

[0015] 2. In this invention, when the geared motor is running, it drives the transmission wheel. When the transmission wheel rotates, it drives the positioning rod to rotate through the transmission belt, thereby adjusting the orientation of the movable plate to ensure that it can be aligned with the automotive parts. Together with the motor and belt drive components, it completes the overall displacement and clamping operation of the material handling mechanism. The precise adjustment of the movement amplitude and speed of the positioning rod makes the displacement of the material handling mechanism more stable and controllable. The meshing connection of the transmission belt ensures the reliability and accuracy of power transmission, reduces the loss in the power transmission process, and improves the stability of the mechanism operation.

[0016] 3. In this invention, the two limiting grooves at the junction of the movable plate, the slider, and the connecting block are perpendicular to each other, allowing the slider to slide along one of the limiting grooves on the movable plate, and the connecting block to move along the other limiting groove between the two sliders. This ensures that when the second electric cylinder drives the clamping rod to open and close through the connecting block and the transmission rod, the movement trajectory of the slider and the connecting block is accurate, avoiding deviation. The cooperation between the first electric cylinder, the limiting block, and the guide groove can precisely control the sliding distance and position of the movable plate on the positioning rod, thereby adjusting the initial position of the clamping rod to adapt to the material handling requirements of parts of different sizes.

[0019] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] Example 1: Refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown: A thermoforming equipment for automotive parts includes a frame 1. A material handling mechanism 4 is provided at the end of the frame 1. The material handling mechanism 4 includes a support base 41, a motor and belt drive assembly 42, a bending rod 43, and a positioning rod 44. The support base 41 is located at the end of the frame 1. The motor and belt drive assembly 42 is fixedly installed on the top of the support base 41. The bending rod 43 is located on one side of the support base 41, and one end of the bending rod 43 is rotatably connected to one end of the positioning rod 44. A movable plate 45 is slidably connected to one side of the positioning rod 44, and a fixed plate 45 is located at the center line of one side of the movable plate 45. A second electric cylinder 47 is fixedly installed. A slider 411 is slidably connected to one side of the movable plate 45. A connecting block 48 is fixedly connected to one end of the piston rod of the second electric cylinder 47. A transmission rod 49 is rotatably connected between the connecting block 48 and the slider 411. A clamping rod 410 is rotatably connected between the ends of the two transmission rods 49. The two clamping rods 410 are symmetrically distributed vertically. A push rod 412 is fixedly connected to one side of the pulley of the motor and belt drive assembly 42. A connecting rod 413 is rotatably connected to one end of the push rod 412. The other end of the connecting rod 413 is rotatably connected to a branch of the bent rod 43.

[0021] In this embodiment, the support base 41 is fixed at the end of the equipment frame 1, and the motor and belt drive assembly 42 is installed on the top of the support base 41. When its pulley rotates, it drives the fixedly connected push rod 412 to move. The push rod 412 is rotatably connected to the branch of the bending rod 43 through the connecting rod 413, thereby driving the bending rod 43 to rotate around its rotatable connection end with the positioning rod 44, realizing the overall displacement action of the material picking mechanism 4. Since the pulley in the motor and belt drive assembly 42 is located on the side of the bending rod 43, when the bending rod 43 is pushed by the connecting rod 413, the bending rod 43 will swing back and forth within a fixed range of ninety degrees. When the bending rod 43 rotates to the vertical state, the positioning rod 44 will be at a position close to the height of the equipment frame 1. At this time, it is used to pick up the automotive parts on the equipment frame 1. When the bending rod 43 rotates to the horizontal state, the positioning rod 44 is at its lowest height and is closest to the upper surface of the support base 41. The positioning rod 44 is slidably connected to the movable plate 45 on one side. When picking up materials, the piston rod of the second electric cylinder 47 installed on the movable plate 45 extends and pushes the connecting block 48 to move. The connecting block 48 is rotatably connected to the slider 411 through the transmission rod 49. The slider 411 slides on the movable plate 45 and drives the clamping rods 410 that are symmetrically distributed on the upper and lower sides. There are four transmission rods 49 in total, which are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the connecting block 48 in pairs. The transmission rods 49 on each side are parallel to each other. When the parallel transmission rods 49 rotate, they can ensure that the clamping rods 410 will not tilt, so as to realize the opening and closing action of the clamping rods 410 to complete the clamping and releasing of the parts. During the whole process, the motor and belt drive assembly 42 provide power to realize the transfer. The second electric cylinder 47 controls the clamping force and range of the clamping rods 410. The sliding connection between the movable plate 45 and the slider 411 ensures the stability and accuracy of the clamping action. All components work together to realize the automatic picking, transfer and clamping operation of automotive parts.

[0022] Example 2: According to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a transmission wheel 418 is rotatably connected to the end of the bent rod 43. The transmission wheel 418 is located between the bent rod 43 and the support base 41. A transmission belt is meshed between the transmission wheel 418 and one end of the positioning rod 44. A reduction motor 414 is fixedly installed on one side of the support base 41. The output end of the reduction motor 414 is fixedly connected to the transmission wheel 418.

[0023] In this embodiment, the output end of the geared motor 414 fixed on one side of the support base 41 is fixedly connected to the transmission wheel 418. When the geared motor 414 operates, it drives the transmission wheel 418 to rotate. The transmission wheel 418 is located between the bent rod 43 and the support base 41, and its end is rotatably connected to the bent rod 43. Therefore, its rotation will not affect the bent rod 43. At the same time, the transmission wheel 418 is engaged with one end of the positioning rod 44 through a transmission belt. When the transmission wheel 418 rotates, it drives the positioning rod 44 to rotate through the transmission belt, thereby adjusting the orientation of the movable plate 45 to ensure that it can be aligned with the automotive parts, cooperating with the motor and belt transmission. The moving component 42 and other components complete the overall displacement and clamping operation of the material handling mechanism 4. The geared motor 414, the transmission wheel 418, and the transmission belt provide a stable power source for the rotation of the positioning rod 44. The speed and direction of the transmission wheel 418 can be precisely controlled by the geared motor 414, thereby accurately adjusting the movement amplitude and speed of the positioning rod 44, making the displacement of the material handling mechanism 4 more stable and controllable. The meshing connection of the transmission belt ensures the reliability and accuracy of power transmission, reduces the loss in the power transmission process, improves the stability of the mechanism operation, and also facilitates maintenance and replacement of components.

[0024] Example 3: According to Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a first electric cylinder 46 is fixedly installed on one side of the positioning rod 44, and a limit block 416 is fixedly installed at the end of the movable plate 45. One end of the piston rod of the first electric cylinder 46 is fixedly connected to the limit block 416. The limit block 416 passes through the positioning rod 44, and a guide groove 417 is provided at the junction of the positioning rod 44 and the limit block 416. Limit grooves 415 are provided at the junctions of the movable plate 45 with the slider 411 and the connecting block 48, and the two limit grooves 415 are perpendicular to each other. The connecting block 48 is located between the two sliders 411.

[0025] In this embodiment, when the piston rod of the first electric cylinder 46, fixed to one side of the positioning rod 44, extends or retracts, it pushes the limiting block 416, which is fixedly connected to it, to slide within the guide groove 417 of the positioning rod 44. The limiting block 416 drives the movable plate 45 to slide along the positioning rod 44, thereby adjusting the position of the movable plate 45 on the positioning rod 44. The two limiting grooves 415 at the junction of the movable plate 45, the slider 411, and the connecting block 48 are perpendicular to each other, allowing the slider 411 to slide along one of the limiting grooves 415 on the movable plate 45. The connecting block 48 moves between the two sliders 411 along the other limiting groove 415, ensuring that the second electric cylinder 47 drives the clamping rod 41 through the connecting block 48 and the transmission rod 49. When the slider 411 and connecting block 48 are in operation, their movement trajectories are precise, preventing deviation. The cooperation of the first electric cylinder 46 with the limiting block 416 and the guide groove 417 can precisely control the sliding distance and position of the movable plate 45 on the positioning rod 44, thereby adjusting the initial position of the clamping rod 410 to adapt to the material handling requirements of parts of different sizes. The mutually perpendicular limiting grooves 415 form a limiting guide for the slider 411 and connecting block 48, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the clamping rod 410 when the transmission rod 49 drives it, avoiding unstable clamping or parts falling off due to movement deviation, improving the operating accuracy and reliability of the material handling mechanism 4, and thus ensuring the stability of the equipment processing process and product quality.

[0026] Example 4: According to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a fixed frame 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the equipment frame 1, a stamping machine 5 is fixedly installed at the end of the fixed frame 2, a stamping die 6 is fixedly connected to one end of the piston rod of the stamping machine 5, an electric heating plate 9 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the equipment frame 1, a support platform 3 is attached to the surface of the electric heating plate 9, the support platform 3 is located at the end of the clamping rod 410, positioning frames 7 are fixedly installed on both sides of the fixed frame 2, a guide rod 8 is slidably connected inside the positioning frame 7, a push plate is fixedly installed at the end of the guide rod 8, and the guide rod 8 and the clamping rod 410 are respectively located on both sides of the support platform 3.

[0027] In this embodiment, a fixed frame 2 fixed to the top of the equipment frame 1 supports a stamping machine 5. The piston rod of the stamping machine 5 drives the stamping die 6 to move up and down, stamping the parts on the support platform 3. An electric heating plate 9 is fixed to the upper surface of the equipment frame 1 to heat the parts placed on the support platform 3 to reach the thermoforming temperature. Guide rods 8 can slide inside the positioning frames 7 on both sides of the fixed frame 2. The push plates and clamping rods 410 at their ends are respectively placed on both sides of the support platform 3. After the clamping rods 410 move the heated parts to the support platform 3, the guide rods 8 are manually pulled to push the parts to position through the push plates, and the stamping is completed in conjunction with the stamping die 6. After the forming is completed, The guide rod 8 pushes the parts close to the clamping rod 410 via the push plate, quickly removing them. The combination of the fixed frame 2, the stamping machine 5, and the stamping die 6 provides stable stamping power and precise stamping position, ensuring forming accuracy. The electric heating plate 9 works with the support table 3 to achieve uniform heating of the parts, meeting the requirements of the thermoforming process. The positioning frame 7, guide rod 8, and push plate can accurately position the parts before stamping, forming a synergistic effect with the clamping rod 410 on both sides to prevent the parts from shifting during stamping and improve forming quality. The coordinated work of all components constructs a complete thermoforming process from heating and positioning to stamping, improving the processing efficiency and reliability of the equipment.

[0028] The operating method and working principle of this device are as follows: When the equipment is running, the material handling mechanism 4 drives the push rod 412 through the motor and belt drive assembly 42, which in turn drives the bending rod 43 to swing within a 90-degree range via the connecting rod 413. This causes the positioning rod 44 to move within the height range of the equipment frame 1, thus realizing the vertical displacement of the material handling mechanism 4. At the same time, the reduction motor 414 drives the transmission wheel 418 to drive the positioning rod 44 to rotate via the transmission belt, adjusting the orientation of the movable plate 45. The first electric cylinder 46 on the positioning rod 44 pushes the limit block 416 to slide within the guide groove 417, causing the movable plate 45 to move along... The positioning rod 44 slides to adjust the horizontal position of the clamping rod 410. The second electric cylinder 47 on the movable plate 45 pushes the connecting block 48, which drives the slider 411 to slide in the limiting groove 415 through the transmission rod 49, thereby realizing the opening and closing clamping of the clamping rod 410. After the electric heating plate 9 heats the parts on the support table 3, the material handling mechanism 4 moves them to the bottom of the stamping die 6. The guide rod 8 in the positioning frame 7 positions the parts through the push plate. The stamping machine 5 drives the stamping die 6 to complete the thermoforming stamping. After forming, the guide rod 8 pushes the push plate to the clamping rod 410 to complete the unloading.

S4, Stamping and Positioning: After the material taking mechanism (4) places the raw material on the support table (3), the guide rod (8) in the positioning frame (7) pushes the raw material from both sides through the push plate to accurately position it in the center of the stamping die (6). After confirming that the positioning is correct, the stamping machine (5) starts, and the piston rod drives the stamping die (6) to move down to stamp the raw material. During the stamping process, the cooling system in the die works synchronously. S5. Unloading and subsequent processing: After the stamping is completed, the stamping die (6) retracts, the guide rod (8) pushes the formed parts towards the clamping rod (410), the material taking mechanism (4) moves again, the clamping rod (410) closes and clamps the parts, and transfers them to the unloading station. The operator deburrs and checks the dimensions of the unloaded parts. S6. Equipment shutdown and maintenance: After the work is completed each day, turn off the power supply of the equipment, clean the oxide scale and debris on the surface of the electric heating plate (9) and support table (3), check the wear of the stamping die (6) and apply anti-rust oil, and regularly check and maintain the belt tension of the motor and belt drive assembly (42), the sealing performance of the electric cylinder, and the amount of lubricating oil in the geared motor (414).
