Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of spherical component processing technology, and more specifically, to a spherical component contour cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] In the industrial manufacturing sector, spherical plastic parts are widely used in valves, bearings, children's toys, decorations, and various mechanisms requiring rolling or low-friction motion due to their unique hydrodynamic properties, wear resistance, and aesthetic appeal. These plastic spheres are typically manufactured using rotational molding or blow molding processes. Because rotational molding is relatively slow and unsuitable for mass production, blow molding is usually used for mass production of plastic spheres.

[0003] The blow molding process begins by heating the raw material to a molten state in an extruder. The extruder then extrudes the molten plastic into a tubular preform. This preform is then transferred to a blow mold, and compressed air is immediately blown in after the mold closes, causing the preform to inflate and adhere tightly to the inner wall of the mold. After cooling and solidification, a series of interconnected hollow plastic spheres are obtained. Operators then sequentially cut and demold these spheres. Manual demolding is slow, and burrs and flash are easily generated at the cut points, affecting the smoothness and integrity of the sphere surface and thus impacting the processing quality. Therefore, we propose a contour cutting device for spherical parts. Summary of the Invention

[0020] The subject matter described herein will now be discussed with reference to exemplary embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are discussed only to enable those skilled in the art to better understand and implement the subject matter described herein, and changes may be made to the function and arrangement of the elements discussed without departing from the scope of this specification. Various processes or components may be omitted, substituted, or added as needed in the examples. Furthermore, features described in some examples may be combined in other examples.

[0021] like Figures 1-13 As shown, a spherical component contour cutting device includes a support 1, a feeding assembly 2, a cutting assembly 3, a grinding assembly 4, and a support and transfer assembly 5. It should be noted that, for ease of explanation, the multiple connected spherical components before cutting will be referred to as a spherical component module, which includes multiple spherical components and connecting parts.

[0022] The bracket 1 primarily serves as a support and mounting element. The feeding assembly 2 is mainly used to transport the spherical parts to the cutting assembly 3. The cutting assembly 3 is mainly used to cut multiple spherical parts as a whole to obtain a single spherical part. The grinding assembly 4 is mainly used to process and grind the cut edges of the single spherical part to obtain a smooth surface. The support and transfer assembly 5 mainly supports the bottom of the spherical part during the cutting process by the cutting assembly 3 and transports the cut spherical part to the grinding assembly 4 for further processing.

[0023] Specifically, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the bracket 1 includes: a base plate 12, a top plate 11, multiple columns, a first mounting plate 13, and a second mounting plate 14. The top plate 11 and the base plate 12 are arranged in parallel, with the top plate 11 positioned above the base plate 12. The multiple columns are spaced apart, and their upper and lower ends are fixedly connected to the top plate 11 and the base plate 12, respectively. The first mounting plate 13 and the second mounting plate 14 are respectively located on both sides of the length of the top plate 11, and are fixedly connected to the columns on the same side.

[0024] Two parallel and spaced baffles 15 are fixedly connected to the top of the top plate 11 along its length. A channel is defined between the two baffles 15. The width of the channel is the same as the width of the spherical component module. In this way, the two baffles 15 can be used to limit the spherical component module, thereby allowing the spherical component module to move in a directional manner.

[0025] like Figure 6 and Figure 10 As shown, a through hole 111 is provided at one end of the top plate 11, and the through hole 111 is located inside the channel. The through hole 111 can be used as a positioning point for cutting spherical parts, and the cut spherical parts can be unloaded downwards from the through hole 111.

[0026] In addition, such as Figure 1 and Figures 6-8 As shown, the feeding assembly 2 is mounted on the top plate 11. The feeding assembly 2 includes a pusher plate 21 and a power assembly 22. The initial position of the pusher plate 21 is set on the side away from the through hole 111. The power assembly 22 is used to drive the pusher plate 21 to move within the channel, so as to push the spherical parts in the channel sequentially toward the through hole 111, that is, to push the spherical part module toward the through hole 111.

[0027] Specifically, a rectangular movable hole 151 is provided on one side of the baffle 15 along its length, and the movable hole 151 mainly serves as a guide.

[0028] The power assembly 22 includes: a motor 221, a screw 222, a nut seat 223, a connecting rod 224, and two mounting seats 225. The two mounting seats 225 are fixedly connected to both sides of the moving hole 151. Both ends of the screw 222 are rotatably connected to the two mounting seats 225, and one end of the screw 222 extends out of the corresponding mounting seat 225 and is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 221. The motor 221 is fixedly connected to the adjacent baffle 15. The nut seat 223 is threaded onto the screw 222. The connecting rod 224 passes through the moving hole 151, and both ends of the connecting rod 224 are fixedly connected to the push plate 21 and the nut seat 223, respectively.

[0029] In use, the spherical component module is first placed between the push plate 21 and the through hole 111 in the channel. Then, the motor 221 is started, which drives the screw 222 to rotate. The rotation of the screw 222 causes the nut seat to move along the axial direction of the screw 222, thereby moving the push plate 21 in the channel via the connecting rod 224, and thus pushing the spherical component module to the through hole 111. After the entire spherical component module is cut, the push plate 21 can push the remaining part of the spherical component module to the outside of the top plate 11. Then, the motor 221 is driven in reverse to return the push plate 21 to its original position.

[0030] It should be noted that the diameter of the connecting rod 224 can be the same as the width of the moving hole 151. This can make the movement of the connecting rod 224 more stable, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the push plate 21.

[0031] In addition, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the cutting assembly 3 is mounted on the top plate 11 and is used to cut the outer contour of the spherical component located at the through hole 111.

[0032] The cutting assembly 3 includes: a gantry frame 31, a cylinder 32, a cylindrical transmission plate 33, and a ring-shaped cutting blade 34. The gantry frame 31 is fixedly connected to the top plate 11, with its opening facing downwards towards the top plate 11. The gantry frame 31 primarily serves for installation and support. It has two longitudinal beams and one transverse beam, with the two longitudinal beams fixedly connected to both sides of the channel. The fixed end of the cylinder 32 is fixedly connected to the gantry frame 31; specifically, the fixed end of the cylinder 32 is fixedly connected to the transverse beam of the gantry frame 31, and the cylinder 32 extends and retracts vertically. The transmission plate 33 has an inverted cylindrical structure, with its bottom and open ends fixedly connected to the extension and retraction ends of the cylinder 32 and the cutting blade 34, respectively. It should be noted that the axes of the transmission plate 33 and the cutting blade 34 are collinear with the axis of the through hole 111. Furthermore, the diameter of the cutting blade 34 is the same as the diameter of the spherical component, which improves the integrity and accuracy of the cutting.

[0033] In use, when the spherical component reaches the center of the through hole 111, cylinder 32 is activated. Cylinder 32 drives the cutting blade 34 to move rapidly downwards via the transmission plate 33, thereby cutting the single spherical component. After cutting, the remaining spherical components can be cut sequentially by cooperating with the feeding assembly 2.

[0034] Furthermore, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the spherical component contour cutting device also includes a pressing assembly 6. The pressing assembly 6 is disposed inside the transmission plate 33 and is used to selectively press the cut spherical component, so that the cut spherical component can be better separated from the spherical component module.

[0035] The pressing assembly 6 includes a second cylinder 61 and a pressing plate 62. The fixed end of the second cylinder 61 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom of the transmission plate 33. The extension and retraction direction of the second cylinder 61 is vertical, and the extension and retraction end of the second cylinder 61 is fixedly connected to the pressing plate 62.

[0036] When in use, after the cutting blade 34 finishes cutting a single spherical part, the cylinder 61 is activated. The cylinder 61 will drive the lower pressure plate 62 to move downward, thereby pushing the cut spherical part downward, which helps the cut spherical part to better detach from the spherical part module.

[0037] As an optional embodiment, the lower pressure plate 62 is constructed in a bowl shape, which can be regarded as part of a hollow sphere, and the inner diameter of the corresponding hollow sphere is the same as the diameter of the spherical component. The center of the sphere corresponding to the lower pressure plate 62 is located on the axis of the through hole 111. The structural design of the lower pressure plate 62 can better fit the upper surface of the spherical component, thereby providing more uniform pressure and improving the stability of pressing.

[0038] It should be noted that during use, when cylinder 32 drives the cutting blade 34 downwards, and the cutting blade 34 just contacts the connecting part in the spherical component module, the inner top of the pressure plate 62 just contacts the top of the spherical component. This allows the pressure plate 62 to correct and limit the position of the spherical component, thereby improving cutting accuracy. For example, initially, if the axis of the spherical component deviates vertically from the center of the sphere corresponding to the pressure plate 62, the pressure plate 62, because its shape conforms to the shape of the spherical component, will gradually correct the position of the spherical component as it moves downwards. Ultimately, it will align the center of the sphere corresponding to the pressure plate 62 with the axis of the spherical component, achieving the correction function. After correction, the pressure plate 62 will limit the position of the spherical component, thereby improving its stability during cutting.

[0039] In addition, such as Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the spherical component contour cutting device also includes a support assembly 7. The support assembly 7 is used to selectively cooperate with the cutting blade 34, serving as a support for the cutting blade 34.

[0040] The support assembly 7 includes a cylinder 71, a support rod 72, and a ring-shaped support ring 73. The cylinder 71 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 13 and located below the top plate 11. The cylinder 71 extends and retracts vertically. The support ring 73 is concentrically positioned with the through hole 111, and the inner diameter of the support ring 73 is the same as the inner diameter of the cutting blade 34. The two ends of the support rod 72 are fixedly connected to the extension and retraction ends of the cylinder 71 and the bottom of the support ring 73, respectively.

[0041] In the initial state of use, the support ring 73 can be located inside or below the through hole 111 to avoid interference with the spherical component module. When the spherical component moves under the drive of the feeding assembly 2 to align with the center of the through hole 111, the cylinder 71 is activated. The cylinder 71 will drive the support ring 73 upward through the support rod 72 until the top of the support ring 73 contacts the bottom of the connecting part in the spherical connecting part module. At this point, the support ring 73 can support the spherical connecting part module. Then, the cutting assembly 3 is used to cut the spherical component. With the support of the support ring 73, the cutting blade 34 can cut the spherical component more effectively. After cutting, the cutting blade 34 and the support ring 73 are retracted to prepare for cutting the next spherical component.

[0042] In addition, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figures 8-11 and Figure 13 As shown, the support and transfer assembly 5 is disposed on the base plate 12. The support and transfer assembly 5 includes multiple position adjustment assemblies 51 and a moving assembly 52. ​​The multiple position adjustment assemblies 51 are arranged in a circular array about the axis of the through hole 111. The multiple position adjustment assemblies 51 are used to support the underside of the spherical part being cut and to correct its cutting position. The circular array distribution of the multiple position adjustment assemblies 51 about the axis of the through hole 111 makes the distribution of the multiple position adjustment assemblies 51 more uniform, thereby providing more stable support for the spherical part and facilitating the adjustment of the cutting position of the spherical part. In this embodiment, the number of position adjustment assemblies 51 can be four.

[0043] It should be noted that the spherical parts after cutting may tilt due to vibration or other reasons during the cutting or transportation process. In order to make them better match the grinding component 4, the cut part needs to be kept in a horizontal position. At this time, the position of the spherical parts after cutting can be adjusted by the cooperation between multiple position adjustment components 51.

[0044] Specifically, each position adjustment assembly 51 includes a roller 511 and a drive assembly 512. The drive assembly 512 drives the roller 511 to rotate, and the rotation of the roller 511 can drive the spherical part to rotate. The moving assembly 52 is connected to multiple drive assemblies 512 and is used to move the cut spherical part to cooperate with the grinding assembly 4.

[0045] The drive assembly 512 includes: a first frame 5121, a second motor 5122, a first gear 5123, a second gear 5124, and a third gear 5125. The first frame 5121 has an upward-facing opening, and a roller shaft is coaxially fixedly connected inside the roller 511. The two sides of the roller shaft are rotatably connected to the two side walls of the first frame 5121, respectively. The first gear 5123 and the third gear 5125 are fixedly connected to the roller shaft and the output end of the second motor 5122, respectively. The second gear 5124 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the first frame 5121, and simultaneously meshes with both the first gear 5123 and the third gear 5125. The second motor 5122 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom of the first frame 5121.

[0046] Among them, roller 511, motor 2 5122, gear 1 5123, gear 2 5124 and gear 3 5125 are all set inside the C-shaped frame 1 5121, which can improve the integration of the equipment and save space.

[0047] When the position of the spherical component needs to be adjusted, the corresponding motor 2 5122 is started. The motor 2 5122 drives the roller 511 to rotate through the transmission of gear 3 5125, gear 2 5124 and gear 1 5123 in sequence. Since the roller 511 is in contact with the lower side of the spherical component, it can drive the spherical component to rotate in the vertical direction, thereby adjusting the cutting position of the spherical component to a horizontal state.

[0048] Additionally, the moving assembly 52 includes a rotating assembly 521, a lifting assembly 522, and a translating assembly 523. The rotating assembly 521 drives the cut spherical part to rotate, facilitating the removal of burrs and flash at the cutting location. The lifting assembly 522 moves the cut spherical part vertically. The translating assembly 523 moves the cut spherical part horizontally.

[0049] Specifically, the rotating assembly 521 includes a rotating plate 5211 and a motor 5212. The rotating plate 5211 is horizontally positioned and fixedly connected to the bottom of multiple U-shaped frames 5121. The output axis of the motor 5212 is vertically positioned and its output end is fixedly connected to the center of the U-shaped frame 5121. The lifting assembly 522 includes a U-shaped frame 5221, a screw 5222, a nut seat 5223, a motor 5224, and a lifting seat 5225. The screw 5222 is vertically positioned, and its two ends are rotatably connected to the upper and lower side walls of the U-shaped frame 5221, respectively. The motor 5224 is fixedly connected to the top of the U-shaped frame 5221. The top of the screw 5222 extends out of the U-shaped frame 5221 and is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 5224. A rectangular movable hole 2 is formed vertically on the C-shaped frame 5221. Nut seat 2 5223 is threadedly connected to screw rod 2 5222. Lifting seat 5225 passes through the movable hole 2 and is fixedly connected to both motor 3 5212 and nut seat 2 5223. It should be noted that the width of the lifting seat 5225 at the point where it passes through the movable hole 2 is the same as the width of the movable hole 2, which makes the movement of the lifting seat 5225 more stable.

[0050] The translation assembly 523 includes a movable base 5231 and a cylinder 5232. The movable base 5231 is slidably connected to the base plate 12, the U-shaped frame 5221 is fixedly connected to the top of the movable base 5231, and the cylinder 5232 is fixedly connected to the base plate 12, with the telescopic end of the cylinder 5232 fixedly connected to the movable base 5231.

[0051] In addition, such as Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 9As shown, the grinding component 4 is mounted on the support 1 and is used to grind the cut area of ​​the spherical part after cutting. The grinding component 4 is used to remove burrs or unevenness generated during the cutting process, thereby improving the surface quality and precision of the spherical part.

[0052] Specifically, mounting plate 13 has mounting holes 131, and a flat plate 132 is fixedly connected to the bottom of mounting hole 131. The flat plate 132 mainly serves to install and support the plate.

[0053] The grinding assembly 4 includes: cylinder 5 41, de-barrel 42, motor 6 46, and drive plate 47. Cylinder 5 41 is fixedly connected to the flat plate 132, and its telescopic end extends and retracts along the width direction of the top plate 11. The telescopic end of cylinder 5 41 is fixedly connected to the de-barrel 42. Motor 6 46 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the top plate 11, and the output axis of motor 6 46 is vertically arranged and fixedly connected to drive plate 47. Drive plate 47 is a bowl-shaped structure with an opening facing downwards, and its inner diameter is the same as the diameter of the spherical part. The axis of drive plate 47 intersects the axis of cylinder 5 41.

[0054] In operation, after the spherical component is cut, motor 4 (5224) is started first. Motor 4 (5224) drives screw 2 (5222) to rotate. The rotation of screw 2 (5222) causes nut seat 2 (5223) to move along the axial direction of screw 2 (5222). This allows the cut spherical component to move downwards via lifting seat 5225 and rotating assembly 521. Once it reaches the preset position, motor 4 (5224) is stopped, and cylinder 3 (5232) is started. Cylinder 3 (5232) drives moving seat 5231 to move. Since the shaped frame 2 (5221) is fixedly connected to the moving seat 5231, it can move the spherical component horizontally until the vertical axis of the spherical component is collinear with the axis of drive plate 47. At this point, cylinder 3 (5232) is stopped, and motor 4 (5224) is restarted to raise the position of the spherical component until it is clamped and fixed by drive plate 47 and multiple rollers 511. Then, motors 3 (5212) and 6 (46) are started simultaneously. Motors 3 (5212) and 6 (46) can drive multiple rollers 511 and drive plate 47 to rotate in the horizontal plane, thereby driving the spherical parts to rotate horizontally. Finally, cylinder 5 (41) is started to adjust the deburr 42 to a suitable position, thereby cleaning the burrs and flash at the cut of the spherical parts, which helps to improve the surface smoothness of the spherical parts.

[0055] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, mounting plate 2 14 has mounting hole 2 141, and flat plate 2 142 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom of mounting hole 2 141. Flat plate 2 142 mainly serves the functions of installation and support.

[0056] The grinding assembly 4 also includes: cylinder 6 43, motor 5 44, and grinding head 45. Motor 5 44 is slidably connected to plate 2 142. The output end of motor 5 44 is fixedly connected to grinding head 45. The telescopic end of cylinder 6 43 is fixedly connected to motor 5 44. The axis of cylinder 6 43 can be collinear with the axis of cylinder 5 41. The distance between grinding head 45 and the cut area of ​​spherical part can be adjusted by cylinder 6 43. After the burrs and flash at the cut area of ​​spherical part are removed by deburring blade 42, cylinder 6 43 can drive grinding head 45 to contact the cut area of ​​spherical part, and then motor 5 44 is started, thereby grinding the cut area and further improving the surface finish.

[0057] It should be noted that the spherical part cutting equipment may also include a controller, which is electrically connected to motors 221 to 46 and cylinders 32 to 43 to control them to perform corresponding actions.

[0058] Additionally, it should be noted that this equipment can also process and grind the welded joints of metal balls. When processing and grinding the welded joints of metal balls, the metal ball to be processed can be placed directly on multiple rollers 511, and then the metal ball is clamped by the drive plate 47 and multiple rollers 511. Starting motor three 5212 and motor six 46 can drive the metal ball to rotate, thereby cooperating with the de-piercing knife 42 and the grinding head 45 to process and grind the welded joints.

[0059] The embodiments of this example have been described above. However, this example is not limited to the specific implementation methods described above. The specific implementation methods described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms based on the guidance of this example, and all of them are within the protection scope of this example.
