Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of busbar processing technology, specifically to an integrated production line and processing method for busbar temporary storage and processing. Background Technology
[0002] Busbars, as core conductive components in high and low voltage power distribution equipment, switchgear, transformers, and other power facilities, play a crucial role in collecting, distributing, and transmitting electrical energy. Their processing quality directly affects the connection reliability, conductivity, and operational safety of the power system. Traditional busbar processing mainly relies on a combination of single-machine operation and manual labor, typically including the following steps: first, long raw materials are manually transported to a saw for fixed-length cutting; then, the cut busbars are transferred to a punch press for punching and notching; finally, for busbars requiring shape alteration, they are transported to a bending machine for bending and shaping.
[0003] This discrete processing method has many inherent drawbacks: low production efficiency, high labor intensity, and repeated manual loading, unloading, positioning, and handling between processes, resulting in slow production cycles, long production times, and high labor intensity for workers. The flow of materials between equipment and the site consumes a significant amount of time, making it impossible to form a continuous and efficient production flow. Processing accuracy and consistency are difficult to guarantee. In each process, manual positioning and alignment are required. Due to the unavoidable errors in manual operation and the cumulative errors caused by repeated handling and positioning, the consistency of key dimensions such as the cutting length, hole position accuracy, and bending angle of the busbar is poor. Flexible production capacity is insufficient. Faced with the current market trend of small-batch, multi-variety customized production, traditional production lines appear rigid. When switching between different specifications of busbar products, frequent adjustments to tooling, molds, and processing programs are required, resulting in long preparation times, low equipment utilization, and an inability to quickly respond to flexible and changing production tasks.
[0004] To address these issues, some automated equipment integrating certain processes has emerged in the industry, such as combining sawing and punching functions into one machine, or bending centers that achieve automatic feeding. However, these devices still have limitations: 1. Incomplete functional coverage: Most equipment can only complete 2-3 processes. For processes that require the completion of the entire process from raw materials to finished products, multiple production lines or manual intervention in intermediate links are still needed, which fails to achieve true integrated processing. 2. Weak material storage and scheduling capabilities: The lack of an efficient material storage and buffering system and intelligent scheduling system can easily cause production line blockage or waiting when the loading and unloading rhythms are inconsistent or when multiple specifications of products need to be produced in combination, thus affecting the continuous operation efficiency of the equipment. 3. Rigid process transitions and inadequate precision assurance: Even when multiple processing modules are mechanically connected together, the lack of precise clamping, positioning, and transfer mechanisms can easily affect the final processing accuracy during process transitions due to factors such as stress release and changes in positioning references. For example, the irregular shape of a bent workpiece makes its smooth transfer to the next stage a common technical challenge.
[0005] Therefore, to address the above problems, a busbar temporary storage and processing integrated production line is proposed that can integrate material temporary storage, automatic feeding, sawing, milling, punching, bending and finished product delivery to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0074] A method for processing busbars, utilizing the aforementioned integrated production line for busbar temporary storage and processing, includes the following steps: Step 1: Transfer and temporarily store the busbar material to be processed; specifically, pull out the empty material cart 132, place the busbar material on the material cart 132, and position the busbar material on the material cart 132 using the initial positioning mechanism 1322. Then, push the material cart 132 into the limiting rail 133. At this time, the position of the busbar material to be grabbed is determined. The sponge suction cup 126 of the grabbing assembly 12 grabs the busbar material on the material cart 132 and moves it to the feeding roller 112 of the feeding assembly 11 or into the material storage 131. Since the processing of the busbar material requires a certain amount of time... During the feeding process of busbar discharge, there may be material accumulation. When there is no busbar discharge on the feeding roller 112, the busbar discharge is placed on the feeding roller 112. When there is still busbar discharge on the feeding roller 112, the busbar discharge is placed in the material storage 131 for temporary storage. Or, when different busbar discharges need to be processed in the middle, the busbar discharges are also temporarily stored in the material storage 131. When there is no busbar discharge on the material cart 132, the busbar discharge is grabbed from the material storage 131 by the sponge suction cup 126, so that the material grabbing component 12 is always in operation during the processing. Step 2: When the length of the busbar is a fixed value, the busbar on the positioning sawing and milling unit 2 is positioned; specifically, the centering mechanism 113 of the feeding assembly 11 limits the position of the busbar on the feeding roller 112 to prevent left and right displacement during the movement of the busbar. The busbar on the feeding roller 112 is moved forward to the first worktable 211, and the busbar is clamped by the first front clamping assembly 25 so that the rear end of the busbar exceeds the positioning shaft 272. The positioning shaft 272 is raised, and the busbar is moved backward so that its rear end contacts the positioning shaft 272, thus determining the feed position of the busbar. Step 3: When the length of the busbar discharge is not a fixed value, measure and position the length of the busbar discharge on the sawing and milling processing unit 2. Specifically, the centering mechanism 113 of the feeding assembly 11 limits the position of the busbar discharge on the feeding roller 112 to prevent left and right displacement during the movement of the busbar discharge. Move the busbar discharge on the feeding roller 112 forward to the first worktable 211, raise the positioning shaft 272, and make the front end of the busbar discharge contact the positioning shaft 272. This is recorded as the zero point. Lower the positioning shaft 272, continue to move the busbar discharge forward, and make the rear end of the busbar discharge exceed the positioning shaft 272. Raise the positioning shaft 272 again, move the busbar discharge backward and make its rear end contact the positioning shaft 272. This is the measurement point. Determine the length of the busbar discharge based on the moving distance of the first front clamping assembly 25 between the zero point and the measurement point and the preset diameter of the positioning shaft 272, and determine the feed position at the same time. Step 4: Pre-cut and mill the front end of the busbar feeder; specifically, continue feeding the busbar feeder until the front end of the busbar feeder reaches the position of the processing groove 213. Then, the front end of the busbar feeder is pressed by the front pressing mechanism 281. Then, the front end of the busbar feeder is pre-cut by the sawing assembly 23. The length of the pre-cut is no more than 10mm to ensure that the front end of the busbar feeder is straight and to avoid excessive waste. After the pre-cutting is completed, the saw blade 236 is lowered and the front end of the busbar feeder is milled by the milling assembly 24. Step 5: Cut the busbar material; specifically, the front pressing mechanism 281 is raised, and the busbar material is fed to the preset cutting length. The busbar material is pressed by the front pressing mechanism 281 and the rear pressing mechanism 282, and the saw blade 236 is raised to cut the busbar material. Step 6: Mill rounded corners on the busbar discharge ends on the front and rear sides of the cutting position; specifically, after lifting the pressing mechanism 282, feed the busbar to be cut out a preset distance, and keep the busbar discharge ends on the front and rear sides of the cutting position at the processing groove 213. After pressing down the pressing mechanism 282, the sawing component 23 mills rounded corners on the busbar discharge ends on the front and rear sides of the cutting position. Step 7: Repeat cutting and scrap removal; Specifically, lift the front pressing mechanism 281 and the rear pressing mechanism 282, feed the two busbar sections for discharge, the front busbar section discharge moves to the conveyor belt 5 and moves to the second worktable 311 via the conveyor belt 5, the rear busbar section discharge repeats the operation of steps 5 to 6 until the busbar section discharge has uncut tail material left, move the tail material to the dropping plate 221 of the dropping assembly 22, and then flip down the dropping plate 221 so that the tail material falls onto the receiving plate 224 and is discharged; Step 8: Determine whether further processing is required. If not, push out; if yes, proceed to the next step. Specifically, if only the busbar material needs to be cut and milled, the busbar material on the conveyor belt 5 is pushed out by the push assembly 6. If further processing of the busbar material is required, it is not pushed out, allowing the busbar material to continue to be fed to the second worktable 311. Step 9: Position the busbar feeder on the second workbench 311; specifically, move the busbar feeder on the second workbench 311 to the rear end of the busbar feeder beyond the positioning shaft 382 by the second front clamping assembly 33, raise the positioning shaft 382, and then move the busbar feeder backward until the rear end of the busbar feeder contacts the positioning shaft 382, thus completing the positioning of the busbar feeder on the second workbench 311; Step 10: Punch and stamp the busbar material; specifically, move the positions of the stamping component 35 and the bending component 36 by the shifting component 32, first move the stamping component 35 to the feed path of the busbar material, move the busbar material according to the punching and stamping position, and complete the punching and stamping process of the busbar material. Step 11: Bend the busbar material; after punching and stamping, move the busbar material out of the processing position of the stamping component 35, and move the positions of the stamping component 35 and the bending component 36 again through the shifting component 32, so that the bending component 36 moves to the feed path of the busbar material, and then feed the busbar material according to the bending position, and complete the bending of the busbar material through the bending component 36. When it is necessary to bend the rear end of the busbar material, the front end of the busbar material is clamped by the second rear clamping component 34 to avoid bending accuracy deviation due to the forward shift of the center of gravity. Step 12: Receive the bent busbar discharge; specifically, adjust the height of the receiving frame 371 according to the height position of the front end of the bent busbar discharge so that the busbar discharge can fall on the conveyor belt 373 of the receiving frame 371; or the height position of the receiving frame 371 rises and falls with the bending of the busbar discharge to support the busbar discharge, at which time the conveyor belt 373 is in an unstarted state. Step 13: Discharge the processed busbar. After the bent busbar is fully moved onto the conveyor belt 373, start the conveyor belt 373 to move the busbar onto the unloading assembly 42; first raise the unloading rack 421 to a position higher than the height of the translation belt, after the busbar is fully moved onto the unloading roller, lower the unloading rack 421 so that the busbar contacts the translation belt, and move the busbar laterally through the translation belt.
