Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of profile feeding equipment, and particularly to a profile feeding device and a corresponding fully automatic profile processing equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Profiles have a wide range of applications, such as in the construction industry as doors, windows, curtain walls and interior and exterior decorative materials, and in the mechanical structure industry as equipment frames, assembly line workbenches and so on.
[0003] Before processing the profiles, such as cutting and drilling, they need to be transported to a designated location for loading. Existing profile loading devices suffer from complex structures and high manufacturing costs. For example, using multi-stage transmissions or complex mechanical structures to load profiles individually not only increases maintenance difficulty but also raises production costs. Furthermore, existing profile loading devices typically can only position and load one profile at a time, resulting in low loading efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a profile feeding device and a corresponding fully automatic profile processing equipment to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This invention provides a profile feeding device and a corresponding fully automatic profile processing equipment to solve the problems of complex structure, high cost and low feeding efficiency of existing profile feeding devices.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of the present invention is: a profile feeding device, comprising:
[0007] Multiple feeding platforms with parallel conveying directions are used to convey multiple profiles horizontally placed on the multiple feeding platforms.
[0008] Multiple feeding and positioning blocks are set at the end of the conveying direction of the feeding platform to position the profiles on the feeding platform;
[0009] A supporting conveying mechanism is located at the end of the conveying direction of the feeding platform, and the conveying direction of the supporting conveying mechanism is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the feeding platform.
[0010] A flipping conveyor mechanism, located between the feeding platform and the supporting conveyor mechanism, includes a flipping shaft and grippers fixedly mounted on the flipping shaft. The grippers rotate along the trajectory of the flipping shaft, including a receiving position near the feeding platform and a feeding position near the supporting conveyor mechanism. The flipping conveyor mechanism is used to grab a predetermined number of profiles from the feeding platform and flip them to convey them onto the supporting conveyor mechanism.
[0011] A lifting plate is raised and lowered at one end of the feeding platform near the flipping conveyor mechanism. The surface of the lifting plate is parallel to the conveying plane of the feeding platform, and the lifting direction of the lifting plate is perpendicular to the conveying plane of the feeding platform. The lifting plate is used to lift a set number of profiles from the feeding platform. When the lifting plate lifts a set number of profiles, the feeding platform reverses and conveys the remaining profiles a set distance so that the gripper located at the receiving position can grab the set number of profiles.
[0012] The present invention also includes a fully automatic profile processing equipment, which uses the above-mentioned profile feeding device and further includes a profile cutting device;
[0013] The profile cutting device includes a feeding device, a cutting and feeding robot, a cutting platform, a cutting mechanism, and a material distribution and transfer mechanism;
[0014] The feeding device is located at one end of the cutting platform, and the cutting and feeding robot is movably arranged above the feeding device and the cutting platform. Two sets of cutting mechanisms are located at both ends of one side of the cutting platform. The cutting mechanisms are used to cut profiles. The material distribution and transfer mechanism is located on the other side of the cutting platform. The material distribution and transfer mechanism is used to remove the cut profiles from the cutting platform.
[0015] The cutting platform includes a sliding seat and cutting positioning components disposed at both ends of the sliding seat for fixing the profile. The cutting positioning components include a lateral fixed positioning block, a lateral movable positioning block, a lateral drive cylinder, a bottom movable positioning block, a bottom drive mechanism, a top movable positioning block, and a top drive mechanism.
[0016] The lateral movable positioning block is connected to the output end of the lateral drive cylinder;
[0017] The bottom drive mechanism includes a bottom drive cylinder, a rotating drive rod, and a support base. The rotating drive rod is rotatably connected to the support base, and the two ends of the rotating drive rod are respectively rotatably connected to the bottom movable positioning block and the output end of the bottom drive cylinder.
[0018] The top drive mechanism includes a fixed frame, a lifting frame, a motor, limit bars, a crank block, and a drive wheel. The lifting frame is slidably connected to the fixed frame. The two limit bars are arranged parallel to each other on the side of the lifting frame near the fixed frame. The motor is fixedly connected to the fixed frame. The crank block is located between the fixed frame and the lifting frame. One end of the crank block is connected to the output shaft of the motor, and the other end of the crank block is connected to the drive wheel. The drive wheel is engaged between the two limit bars. The top movable positioning block is connected to the bottom of the lifting frame.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this invention are as follows: the profile feeding device of this invention can lift a set number of profiles by setting a lifting plate, and transport the remaining profiles by moving the feeding platform in the opposite direction, so that the lifted profiles are at a set distance from the remaining profiles, which makes it very convenient for the grippers to grab a set number of profiles, and then flip and transport them to the support conveying mechanism. Multiple profiles can be grabbed and transported at one time, and the operation is precise and efficient. Attached Figure Description

[0055] 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.
[0056] The directional terms mentioned in this invention, such as "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "inner", "outer", "side", "top" and "bottom", are only for reference to the orientation of the accompanying drawings. The directional terms used are for the purpose of explaining and understanding this invention, and are not intended to limit this invention.
[0057] The terms "first" and "second" used in the terminology of this invention are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, nor as limiting the order of events.
[0058] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, a connection can be a detachable connection or a connection of an integral structure; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be a connection within two components or an interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.
[0059] Existing profile feeding devices suffer from complex structures and high manufacturing costs. For example, using multi-stage transmissions or complex mechanical structures to feed profiles one by one not only increases maintenance difficulty but also raises production costs. Furthermore, existing profile feeding devices can generally only position and feed one profile at a time, resulting in low feeding efficiency.
[0060] The following is a preferred embodiment of a fully automatic profile processing equipment provided by the present invention, which can solve the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0061] Please refer to Figure 1 ,in Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the fully automatic profile processing equipment of the present invention.
[0062] In the diagram, units with similar structures are represented by the same labels.
[0063] This embodiment provides a fully automatic profile processing equipment, which includes a profile feeding device 1, a profile cutting device 3, and a profile processing device 4. The profile feeding device 1 and the profile processing device are located on opposite sides of the profile cutting device. The profile feeding device 1 feeds profiles in groups of a set quantity. The profile cutting device 3 cuts each group of profiles at a time. After cutting, each group of profiles is separated into individual profiles by a material transfer mechanism 41 and then conveyed. The profile processing device 4 processes each individual profile at a time.
[0064] It should be noted that, for different profiles, the profile processing device 4 may mainly include a punching device and a riveting device, or the profile processing device 4 may mainly include a profile punching device and a corner bracket mounting device 5. Alternatively, the riveting device and the corner bracket mounting device 5 may be sequentially installed at the rear end of the punching device as needed.
[0065] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The profile feeding device in this embodiment is described in detail below: The profile feeding device 1 includes a feeding platform 11, a feeding positioning block 12, a support conveying mechanism 13, a flipping conveying mechanism 14, and a lifting plate 15.
[0066] Multiple feeding platforms 11 are parallel in their conveying directions, and multiple profiles 21 are horizontally placed on the multiple feeding platforms 11 for conveying. For example, Figure 5 In this embodiment, the profile 21 includes a main body 211 and an extension plate 212 located on one side of the main body 211. When multiple profiles 21 are placed onto multiple feeding platforms 11, the operator should ensure that the multiple profiles 21 are positioned in the same direction. Here, the direction mainly refers to ensuring that the extension plate 212 is positioned relative to the top of the main body 211.
[0067] Please refer to Figure 8Multiple loading and positioning blocks 12 are disposed at the end of the conveying direction of the feeding platform 11 to position the profiles 21 on the feeding platform 11. More specifically, in this embodiment, the loading and positioning blocks 12 are connected to the output end of the linear drive mechanism 121, which can drive the loading and positioning blocks 12 to move back and forth along the conveying direction of the feeding platform 11. When the operator places multiple profiles 21, there may be uncertain spacing between the multiple profiles 21 or the profiles may be placed at an angle. By setting the moving loading and positioning blocks 12 to contact the profiles on the feeding platform 11, the problems of excessive spacing between profiles and tilting can be solved. This reduces the requirements for the operator in placing the profiles, making the work easier and less labor-intensive, and increasing work efficiency.
[0068] The supporting conveying mechanism 13 is located at the end of the conveying direction of the feeding platform 11, and the conveying direction of the supporting conveying mechanism 13 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the feeding platform 11.
[0069] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The flipping conveyor 14 is located between the feeding platform 11 and the supporting conveyor 13. The flipping conveyor 14 includes a flipping shaft 141 and grippers 142 fixedly mounted on the flipping shaft 141. The grippers 142 rotate along the trajectory of the flipping shaft 141, including a receiving position near the feeding platform 11 and a feeding position near the supporting conveyor 13. The flipping conveyor 14 is used to grab a predetermined number of profiles 21 from the feeding platform 11 and flip them to convey them onto the supporting conveyor 13. To improve feeding efficiency, the predetermined number is at least two.
[0070] It is understandable that when the gripper 142 is in the receiving position, it can be located above or below the profile 21 on the feeding platform 11. Preferably, the gripper 142 grabs the profile 21 from below on the feeding platform 11 and then flips it over to convey it to the support conveying mechanism 13. In this way, the gripper 142 does not need to wait for the profile on the support conveying mechanism 13 to finish conveying. The gripper 142 can flip over to one side of the feeding platform 11 more efficiently to perform the gripping operation of the profile 21, resulting in high work efficiency.
[0071] Please refer to Figure 8The lifting plate 15 is positioned at one end of the feeding platform 11 near the flipping conveyor mechanism 14. The surface of the lifting plate 15 is parallel to the conveying plane of the feeding platform 11, and the lifting direction of the lifting plate 15 is perpendicular to the conveying plane of the feeding platform 11. The lifting plate 15 can be driven to lift by a cylinder or other lifting drive mechanism 151. The lifting plate 15 is used to lift a set number of profiles 21 from the feeding platform 11. When the lifting plate 15 lifts a set number of profiles 21, the feeding platform 11 reverses and conveys the remaining profiles 21 a set distance, so that the lifted profiles 21 are at a set distance from the remaining profiles on the feeding platform 11. This makes it very convenient for the gripper 142 located at the receiving position to grab the set number of profiles 21, resulting in precise and efficient operation.
[0072] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 In this embodiment, the support conveying mechanism 13 includes a mounting rod 131, and a plurality of first support wheels 132 and a plurality of second support wheels 133 disposed on one side of the mounting rod 131. The centers of the plurality of first support wheels 132 are located on the same extension line, and the centers of the plurality of second support wheels 133 are located on the same extension line. The plurality of first support wheels 132 are used to support the main body 211, and the plurality of second support wheels 133 are used to support the extension plate 212.
[0073] The support conveying mechanism 13 may also include a cutting and feeding robot, which is used to clamp the profile 21 located on the first support wheel 132 and the second support wheel 133 and drive the profile 21 to move for subsequent cutting and other processing operations.
[0074] In this embodiment, the support conveying mechanism 13 is used to support and convey two profiles simultaneously.
[0075] Specifically, the support conveying mechanism 13 includes a fixed plate 134, which is parallel to one side of the mounting rod 131. The fixed plate 134 is connected to the mounting rod 131 via a connecting plate 135. First support wheels 132 are provided on both sides of the fixed plate 134, with the top surface of each first support wheel 132 higher than the top surface of the fixed plate 134. A limiting groove 1321 for limiting the extension plate 212 is formed between the two first support wheels 132. A limiting groove 1321 for limiting the extension plate 212 is also provided on the circumferential side of one of the first support wheels 132. Thus, the two first support wheels 132 and the two limiting grooves 1321 can simultaneously provide positioning support for the two profiles 21.
[0076] One end of the fixed plate 134 is slidably and adjustablely connected to a mounting block 136. The sliding adjustment of the mounting block 136 can be achieved using a screw and elongated hole mating structure. The sliding direction of the mounting block 136 is perpendicular to the conveying plane of the support conveying mechanism 13. Second support wheels 133 are provided on both sides of the mounting block 136. By sliding and adjusting the position of the mounting block 136, the support position of the second support wheels 133 on the extension plate 212 can be changed, so that the second support wheels 133 can be used to support extension plates 212 with different extension lengths.
[0077] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 In addition, the profile feeding device in this embodiment also includes a receiving block 137. The receiving block 137 is ellipsably disposed on one side of the first support wheel 132. The lifting direction of the receiving block 137 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the support conveying mechanism 13. The receiving block 137 can be driven to lift by a cylinder or other lifting drive mechanism 138. The receiving block 137 is used to receive the profile 21 conveyed by the gripper 142 and place it on the first support wheel 132 and the second support wheel 133.
[0078] It should be noted that, due to the presence of the extension plate 212 on the profile 21, it is not convenient for the extension plate 212 to be directly flipped into the limiting groove 1321 when it is flipped by the gripper 142. Otherwise, the width of the limiting groove 1321 would need to be very large, which would be detrimental to the positioning of the extension plate 212 by the limiting groove 1321. Therefore, this embodiment is provided with a receiving block 137 to receive the profile after it has been flipped into place, and then the profile 21 is placed on the first support wheel 132 and the second support wheel 133 by the descent of the receiving block 137.
[0079] The top of the receiving block 137 is provided with a receiving groove 1371 for accommodating the main body 211 and a positioning groove 1372 for positioning the extension plate 212. The positioning groove 1372 is provided on the bottom surface inside the receiving groove 1371. The receiving groove 1371 and the positioning groove 1372 pass through both sides of the receiving block 137 along the conveying direction of the supporting conveying mechanism 13.
[0080] Please refer to Figure 7 A support plate 139 is slidably and adjustablely provided on one side of the receiving block 137 through which the positioning groove 1372 passes. The sliding direction of the support plate 139 is perpendicular to the conveying plane of the support conveying mechanism 13. The support plate 139 is used to support the extension plate 212 in the positioning groove 1372, thereby improving the stability of the profile on the receiving block 137, so that the receiving block 137 can smoothly and stably place the profile on the first support wheel 132 and the second support wheel 133.
[0081] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 9 The profile feeding device in this embodiment also includes a lateral positioning mechanism 17.
[0082] The lateral positioning mechanism 17 is located at one end of the support conveying mechanism 13. The lateral positioning mechanism 17 includes two lateral driving members 171 and a lateral positioning plate 172 connected to the output end of the lateral driving members 171. The sliding trajectories of the two lateral positioning plates 172 are coaxially arranged. When the profile 21 is on the support conveying mechanism 13, the profile 21 is simultaneously located between the two lateral positioning plates 172. The two lateral driving members 171 are used to drive the two lateral positioning plates 172 to move closer to each other in order to perform lateral positioning on the profile 21 on the support conveying mechanism 13.
[0083] Please refer to Figure 2 The profile feeding device in this embodiment also includes a longitudinal positioning mechanism 16.
[0084] The longitudinal positioning mechanism 16 is located on one side of the feeding platform 11. The longitudinal positioning mechanism 16 includes a longitudinal drive member 162 and a longitudinal positioning plate 161 connected to the output end of the longitudinal drive member 162. The longitudinal drive member 162 is used to drive the longitudinal positioning plate 161 to move along the conveying direction perpendicular to the feeding platform 11, so as to perform longitudinal positioning of the profile 21 on the feeding platform 11.
[0085] By setting up the longitudinal positioning mechanism 16 and the transverse positioning mechanism 17, the transverse and longitudinal positioning of the profile 21 can be completed respectively during the feeding process, so that the profile 21 can be more accurately grasped and transported to the subsequent processing equipment.
[0086] Please refer to Figure 8 In this embodiment, the profile feeding device also includes two sensors 19. The two sensors 19 are positioned on one side of the lifting plate 15 and face the conveying plane of the feeding platform 11 for sensing. The distance between the sensing positions of the two sensors 19 is less than the total width of a predetermined number of profiles 21, and greater than the total width of a predetermined number minus one. Thus, when both sensors 19 detect the presence of profiles 21, it indicates that a predetermined number of profiles 21 are present between the two sensors 19, i.e., above the lifting plate 15. Therefore, the sensing signals from the two sensors 19 can be used to control the lifting plate 15 to lift the predetermined number of profiles 21.
[0087] Preferably, the effective width of the lifting plate 15 is less than the total width of the set number of profiles, so that when the lifting plate 15 is raised, it will not overturn profiles other than the target profile. The width of the lifting plate 15 is determined by the fact that the set number of profiles 21 can all be stably placed on the lifting plate 15.
[0088] In this embodiment, the profile feeding device also includes an end limiting plate 18. The extension direction of the end limiting plate 18 is parallel to the conveying direction of the feeding platform 11. The end limiting plate 18 is disposed on one side of the outermost feeding platform 11. The end limiting plate 18 is used to contact the ends of multiple profiles on the feeding platform 11 so that the multiple profiles are aligned. This makes it easier for the operator to place multiple profiles 21 onto multiple feeding platforms 11 more neatly.
[0089] The profile feeding device of this preferred embodiment can lift a set number of profiles by setting a lifting plate, and transport the remaining profiles by moving the feeding platform in the opposite direction, so that the lifted profiles are at a set distance from the remaining profiles, which makes it very convenient for the grippers to grab the set number of profiles, and then flip and transport them to the support conveying mechanism. Multiple profiles can be grabbed and transported at one time, and the operation is precise and efficient.
[0090] Please refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11 The profile cutting device 3 in this embodiment will be described in detail below: The profile cutting device 3 includes a cutting and feeding robot 31 ( Figure 10 The reference numeral 31 specifically refers to the mounting frame of the cutting and feeding robot (the cutting and feeding robot moves laterally on the mounting frame), the cutting platform 33, the cutting mechanism 32, and the material distribution and transfer mechanism 41.
[0091] The feeding device is located at one end of the cutting platform 33. The cutting and feeding robot 31 is movably positioned above the feeding device and the cutting platform 33. The cutting and feeding robot 31 grabs the profile 21 from the first support wheel 132 and the second support wheel 133 of the feeding device and transports it to the cutting platform 33.
[0092] Two sets of cutting mechanisms 32 are located at both ends of one side of the cutting platform 33. The cutting mechanisms 32 are used to cut profiles, specifically to cut the profiles to a set length. The material distribution and transfer mechanism 41 is located on the other side of the cutting platform 33. The material distribution and transfer mechanism 41 is used to remove the cut profiles from the cutting platform 33.
[0093] Please refer to Figure 11 and Figure 12 In this embodiment, the cutting platform 33 includes a sliding seat 326 and a cutting positioning component disposed on the sliding seat 326 for fixing the profile. The sliding seat 326 can be moved to adjust the distance between the two sets of cutting mechanisms 32.
[0094] The cutting positioning assembly includes a lateral fixed positioning block 331, a lateral movable positioning block 332, a lateral drive cylinder 335, a bottom movable positioning block 333, a bottom drive mechanism 337, a top movable positioning block 334, and a top drive mechanism 336.
[0095] The lateral movable positioning block 332 is connected to the output end of the lateral drive cylinder 335. The lateral movable positioning block 332 moves and cooperates with the lateral fixed positioning block 331 to perform lateral clamping and positioning of a set number of profiles. In this embodiment, the cutting positioning assembly can hold two profiles, which are in surface contact and are clamped and positioned together between the lateral movable positioning block 332 and the lateral fixed positioning block 331.
[0096] Please refer to Figure 13 The bottom drive mechanism 337 includes a bottom drive cylinder 3371, a rotation drive rod 3372, and a support base 3373. The rotation drive rod 3372 is rotatably connected to the support base 3373, and the two ends of the rotation drive rod 3372 are respectively rotatably connected to the bottom movable positioning block 333 and the output end of the bottom drive cylinder 3371.
[0097] The bottom movable positioning block 333 can rotate around the support base 3373, allowing it to adaptively contact and position itself with the profile, resulting in high positioning compatibility. This also facilitates the avoidance of misalignment between the bottom drive cylinder 3371 and other components within the sliding seat 326, making the overall structure more compact and smaller in size.
[0098] Please refer to Figure 14 and Figure 15 The top drive mechanism 336 includes a fixed frame 3361, a lifting frame 3362, a motor 3366, a limit bar 3363, a crank block 3364, and a drive wheel 3365. The motor 3366 is preferably a servo motor, which has high control precision and can accurately control the lifting frame 3362 to lift to any height position.
[0099] The lifting frame 3362 is slidably connected to the fixed frame 3361. Two limit bars 3363 are arranged parallel to each other on the side of the lifting frame 3362 near the fixed frame 3361. The motor 3366 is fixedly connected to the fixed frame 3361. The crank block 3364 is located between the fixed frame 3361 and the lifting frame 3362. One end of the crank block 3364 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 3366, and the other end of the crank block 3364 is connected to the drive wheel 3365. The drive wheel 3365 is engaged between the two limit bars 3363. The top movable positioning block 334 is connected to the bottom of the lifting frame 3362. In this way, the motor 3366 drives the crank block 3364 to rotate, thereby controlling the lifting and lowering of the top movable positioning block 334.
[0100] In order to reduce the size of the top drive mechanism 336 and reduce costs, the distance from the rotation center of the crank block 3364 to one side of the fixed frame 3361 can be set to be greater than the length of the crank block 3364, while the distance from the rotation center of the crank block 3364 to the other side of the fixed frame 3361 is less than the length of the crank block 3364. In this way, when the lifting frame 3362 is lifted, the crank block 3364 does not need to rotate a full circle to achieve the maximum lifting stroke.
[0101] Please refer to Figure 10 and Figure 12 In this embodiment, the movement trajectory of the cutting and feeding robot 31 and the movement trajectory of the lifting frame 3362 can be avoided by raising and lowering both of them. The lifting frame 3362, driven by the motor 3366, can have more lifting positions compared to the cylinder-driven lifting. When the cutting and feeding robot 31 grabs the profile, lifts it to a certain height, and then moves to feed the material, the lifting frame 3362 rises to its highest position to avoid obstruction. When the cutting and feeding robot 31 has passed the position of the lifting frame 3362, the lifting frame 3362 can descend a certain distance. After the profile is fed into place, both lifting frames 3362 descend to the bottom to position the profile. At this time, the cutting and feeding robot 31 can rise to its highest position and then move back. When the cutting and feeding robot 31 returns, it can also avoid obstruction with the lifting frame 3362 that has descended to the bottom.
[0102] Please refer to Figure 13 In this embodiment, the bottom movable positioning block 333 includes a connecting block 3331 and a positioning main block 3332. The positioning main block 3332 is disposed on the top surface of the connecting block 3331. By replacing different positioning main blocks 3332, it is convenient to position profiles of different specifications. The bottom of the connecting block 3331 is rotatably connected to the rotating drive rod 3372. The bottom of the connecting block 3331 is provided with a limiting groove 33311. The rotating drive rod 3372 slides within the limiting groove 33311, which can improve the stability of the rotating drive rod 3372 driving the connecting block 3331.
[0103] The positioning main block 3332 has support bosses 33321 at both ends of its top surface. The support bosses 33321 are used to support the profile. The support bosses 33321 have a small area and are located in a dispersed manner, which can not only position the profile well, but also reduce the probability of cutting debris falling onto the support bosses 33321.
[0104] In this embodiment, the cutting and positioning assembly includes multiple sets of bottom movable positioning blocks 333 and multiple sets of bottom driving mechanisms 337, meaning that each bottom movable positioning block 333 is driven by a corresponding bottom driving mechanism 337. Specifically, the accompanying drawings of this embodiment show two sets of bottom movable positioning blocks 333 and two sets of bottom driving mechanisms 337.
[0105] At most one set of bottom drive mechanisms 337 is fixedly connected to the sliding seat 326, while other sets of bottom drive mechanisms 337 are slidably and adjustablely connected to the sliding seat 326. Specifically, the slidable and adjustable connection of the bottom drive mechanism 337 means that the bottom drive cylinder 3371 and the support seat 3373 need to be adjustable. For example, the support seat 3373 can be slidably and adjustablely connected to the sliding seat 326 through a long through hole 33731. The sliding direction of the bottom drive mechanism 337 is parallel to the vertical line connecting two adjacent bottom movable positioning blocks 333. The sliding of the bottom drive mechanism 337 determines the distance between adjacent bottom movable positioning blocks 333. Adjusting the distance between the bottom movable positioning blocks 333 allows multiple bottom movable positioning blocks 333 to be suitable for different positioning and multiple profiles of different specifications.
[0106] Among them, multiple bottom movable positioning blocks 333 are opposite to a top movable positioning block 334. The bottom surface of the top movable positioning block 334 is provided with multiple strip grooves 3341. The extension direction of the strip grooves 3341 is perpendicular to the length direction of the profile on the bottom movable positioning block 333, which can improve the pressing and fixing effect.
[0107] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the top movable positioning block 334 is provided with multiple air holes 3342, which are connected to corresponding air blowing devices. Air holes 3342 are provided both inside the strip groove 3341 and on the bottom surface of the top movable positioning block 334. The air holes 3342 can blow away debris on the bottom movable positioning block 333, and the reverse airflow can also clean the bottom surface of the top movable positioning block 334, thereby improving the stability and accuracy of the pressing and fixing position.
[0108] Please refer to Figures 16-18 In this embodiment, the cutting mechanism 32 also includes a cutting fixing seat 321, a cutting drive component 322, a blade 323, a dust suction cover 324, and a sealing plate 325.
[0109] The cutting drive 322 is slidably connected to the cutting fixed base 321, and the blade 323 is connected to the output end of the cutting drive 322. The cutting drive 322 slides to drive the blade 323 to feed and perform cutting work. The dust collection hood 324 is fixedly connected to the cutting fixed base 321. The dust collection hood 324 includes an upper cover plate and a lower cover plate. The blade 323 is located between the upper cover plate and the lower cover plate. One end of the blade 323 extends out of the dust collection hood 324, and the dust collection hood 324 forms a dust collection port 3241 at the position where the blade 323 extends out, which can suck up cutting debris.
[0110] A clearance groove 3242 for the movement of the cutting drive component 322 is provided through the lower cover plate. One end of the sealing plate 325 is connected to the side of the cutting drive component 322 away from the suction port 3241. The sealing plate 325 and the lower cover plate are stacked and slidably arranged, and the sealing plate 325 closes the clearance groove 3242. During the movement of the cutting drive component 322, the airflow will not be diverted by the clearance groove 3242, so that the suction port 3241 maintains a high suction force.
[0111] The clearance groove 3242 penetrates the end face of the lower cover plate near the cutting platform 33. The side of the blade 323 near the upper cover plate is provided with a locking member 3221. The locking member 3221 is used to fix the blade 323 to the output end of the cutting drive member 322. The upper cover plate is provided with a groove 3243 for clearance with the locking member 3221. The groove 3243 penetrates the end face of the upper cover plate near the cutting platform 33, which can appropriately increase the dust collection area of the dust collection port 3241.
[0112] Please refer to Figure 9 In addition, the cutting fixture 321 is rotatably disposed inside the sliding seat 326 about the first axis 3211, and the first axis 3211 is parallel to the blade 323.
[0113] A nut 327 is rotatably mounted on the sliding seat 326 around a second axis. An adjusting screw 328 is internally threaded onto the nut 327. The adjusting screw 328 is perpendicular to the first axis 3211. One end of the adjusting screw 328 is rotatably connected to the cutting fixture 321 around a third axis. Preferably, the adjusting screw 328 and the cutting fixture 321 are connected by a spherical structure, forming a universal rotatable connection. The first axis 3211, the second axis, and the third axis are parallel. Rotating the adjusting screw 328 drives the fixture 321 to rotate around the first axis 3211, thereby adjusting the angle at which the blade 323 cuts the profile.
[0114] Limiting posts 3212 are provided on both sides of the cutting fixture 321. The limiting posts 3212 are parallel to the first axis 3211. The limiting posts 3212 extend to the outer side of the sliding seat 326 and are fixedly connected to a locking block 329. The locking block 329 is provided with an elongated hole for fixed connection with the sliding seat 326. The locking block 329 can be fixedly connected to the sliding seat 326 by screw connection. Tightening the screw can fix the locking block 329 to the sliding seat 326, thereby locking the position of the cutting fixture 321.
[0115] The outer side of the sliding base 326 is provided with a scale bar 32A, and the locking block 329 is provided with an indicator needle that cooperates with the scale bar 32A. The indicator needle and the scale bar 32A can be used to provide feedback on the cutting angle of the blade 323.
[0116] In this embodiment, the cutting positioning assembly of the profile cutting device, through the cooperation of a lateral fixed positioning block, a lateral movable positioning block, a bottom movable positioning block, and a top movable positioning block, can effectively press and fix multiple profiles, allowing the cutting mechanism to efficiently cut multiple profiles simultaneously. Furthermore, the combination of a dust suction hood and a sealing plate enables concentrated, high-force suction to remove cutting debris, reducing interference from debris on the profile pressing and fixing process and improving cutting quality.
[0117] Please refer to Figure 20 and Figure 24 The profile processing device in this embodiment is described in detail below: The profile processing device 4 is used to perform punching, riveting, and corner bracket installation on the profiles cut by the profile cutting device 3. The profile processing device 4 includes a material distribution and transfer mechanism 41, a punching conveying mechanism 44, a punching loading robot 42, a punching fixture 46, and a punching mechanism 47.
[0118] It is understandable that the material distribution and transfer mechanism 41 is the input of the profile processing device 4 and the output of the profile cutting device 3. Therefore, the material distribution and transfer mechanism 41 can be classified as either the profile cutting device 3 or the profile processing device.
[0119] Please refer to Figure 11 At least two sets of transfer support platforms 34 are provided on the side of the profile cutting device 3 near the material distribution and transfer mechanism 41. The punching conveying mechanism 44 is located between the transfer support platform 34 and the punching fixture 46. The material distribution and transfer mechanism 41 is movably arranged between the profile cutting device 3 and the punching conveying mechanism 44. The material distribution and transfer mechanism 41 is used to take the cut profile from the profile cutting device and convey it to the punching conveying mechanism 44. Specifically, the material distribution and transfer mechanism 41 first conveys the cut profile to the transfer support platform 34, and then conveys it to the punching conveying mechanism 44.
[0120] The punching loading robot 42 is movably positioned above the punching conveying mechanism 44 and the punching fixture 46. The punching loading robot 42 is used to grab and convey the profiles on the punching conveying mechanism 44 to the punching fixture 46. The punching mechanism 47 is located above the punching fixture 46 and presses down to perform the punching operation.
[0121] Please refer to Figure 20The material distribution and transfer mechanism 41 includes a material distribution and conveying drive assembly, a conveying plate 412, and at least two sets of material distribution support platforms 413 and two sets of material transfer support platforms 414. The bottom of the conveying plate 412 is connected to the output end of the material distribution and conveying drive assembly. The material distribution support platforms 413 and the material transfer support platforms 414 are respectively disposed at both ends of the top surface of the conveying plate 412. The conveying plate 412 moves so that the material distribution support platforms 413 lift up the profiles cut by the profile cutting device and convey them to the transfer support platforms 34. At the same time, the material transfer support platforms 414 lift up the profiles on the transfer support platforms 34 and convey them to the punching conveying mechanism 44.
[0122] More specifically, the material distribution and conveying drive assembly includes a vertical mounting plate 4111, a material distribution and transfer motor 4112, a transmission plate 4113, a guide wheel 4114, and a movable plate 4115.
[0123] The material distribution and transfer motor 4112 is fixedly connected to the vertical mounting plate 4111. The movable plate 4115 and one side of the vertical mounting plate 4111 form a sliding connection that allows for horizontal sliding and vertical lifting. The side of the vertical mounting plate 4111 near the movable plate 4115 is provided with an annular guide groove 41111. The transmission plate 4113 is located between the movable plate 4115 and the vertical mounting plate 4111. One end of the transmission plate 4113 is connected to the output end of the material distribution and transfer motor 4112, and the other end of the transmission plate 4113 is connected to the movable plate 4115 and the guide wheel 4114. The guide wheel 4114 is movably limited within the guide groove 41111. The conveying plate 412 is connected to the top of the movable plate 4115.
[0124] The guide groove 41111 includes a vertical groove and a horizontal groove. When the guide wheel 4114 moves along the vertical groove, the movable plate 4115 moves up and down. When the guide wheel 4114 moves along the horizontal groove, the movable plate 4115 moves horizontally.
[0125] Please refer to Figure 21 In this embodiment, the material distribution support platform 413 includes a fixed platform body 4131, a movable platform body 4132, a connecting plate 4133, and a material distribution drive component 4134. The fixed platform body 4131 is fixedly disposed on the top surface of the conveyor plate 412, the connecting plate 4133 is slidably disposed on the top surface of the conveyor plate 412, and the movable platform body 4132 is slidably and adjustablely connected to the connecting plate 4133. Locking plates for connecting the movable platform body 4132 and the connecting plate 4133 are provided on both sides of the movable platform body 4132.
[0126] The width adjustment direction is defined by the vertical line connecting the fixed platform 4131 and the movable platform 4132. The sliding direction of the adapter plate 4133 and the movable platform 4132 is parallel to the width adjustment direction. The material distribution drive component 4134 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the conveyor plate 412, and its output end is connected to the adapter plate 4133. The movable platform 4132 can be adjusted relative to the adapter plate 4133 to accommodate profiles of different specifications. The material distribution drive component 4134 drives the adapter plate 4133 to move, allowing the profiles carried by the movable platform 4132 to be separated from those carried by the fixed platform 4131 by a set distance.
[0127] Among them, such as Figure 5 In this embodiment, the profile 21 includes a main body 211 and an extension plate 212 located on one side of the main body 211. A groove 213 is provided on the side of the main body 211 that is close to and perpendicular to the extension plate.
[0128] The material distribution support platform 413 also includes a first insert 4135 and a second insert 4136 for positioning and engaging with the sink 213. The first insert 4135 is slidably and adjustablely connected to one side of the fixed platform 4131 along the width adjustment direction. Multiple connecting slots 41321 are distributed along the width adjustment direction on the movable platform 4132. The second insert 4136 is detachably connected to the connecting slots 41321. By adjusting the positions of the first insert 4135 and the second insert 4136, it can be adapted to position and engage with sinks 213 of different specifications of profiles.
[0129] The profile processing device in this embodiment can separate multiple profiles into individual pieces for transport through a material distribution and transfer mechanism, which can effectively switch between transporting multiple profiles and single profiles, thereby improving overall work efficiency.
[0130] Please refer to Figure 20 and Figure 22 In this embodiment, the punching conveyor 44 includes a conveyor belt with multiple spacer strips 441 on its outer surface. Spacing grooves for placing profiles are formed between adjacent spacer strips 441. A lifting mechanism 45 is provided at the end of the punching conveyor 44 in the conveying direction. The lifting mechanism 45 lifts the profiles on the punching conveyor 44 for gripping by the punching loading robot 42.
[0131] The top-feeding mechanism 45 includes a top-feeding cylinder 451, top-feeding blocks 452, and a transmission rod 453. Two top-feeding blocks 452 are slidably connected to both ends of the mounting base of the punching conveying mechanism 44. The top-feeding cylinder 451 is fixedly connected to the mounting base of the punching conveying mechanism 44. One of the top-feeding blocks 452 is connected to the output end of the top-feeding cylinder 451. A rack 454 is provided on one side of the top-feeding block 452. Gears are provided at both ends of the transmission rod 453. The transmission rod 453 is connected between the two top-feeding blocks 452 through the engagement of the gears and rack 454. This allows one top-feeding cylinder 451 to synchronously drive the two top-feeding blocks 452 to rise and fall.
[0132] Please refer to Figure 25 and Figure 26 In this embodiment, the punching mechanism 47 includes a punching drive 471, a punching mounting base 472, a punching lifting frame 473, a synchronous shaft 474, a first synchronous connecting rod 475, and a second synchronous connecting rod 476.
[0133] The punching lifting frame 473 is slidably connected to the punching mounting base 472. Both ends of the punching mounting base 472 are provided with punching drive components 471. The output end of the punching drive component 471 is connected to the punching lifting frame 473. A synchronous shaft 474 is fixedly provided between the two ends of the punching mounting base 472. The synchronous shaft 474 is located between the punching mounting base 472 and the punching lifting frame 473. The axial direction of the synchronous shaft 474 is perpendicular to the lifting direction of the punching lifting frame 473. One end of the first synchronous connecting rod 475 and one end of the second synchronous connecting rod 476 are rotatably connected. The other end of the first synchronous connecting rod 475 is rotatably connected to the punching lifting frame 473. The other end of the second synchronous connecting rod 476 is rotatably connected to the synchronous shaft 474. The rotation axes of the first synchronous connecting rod 475 and the second synchronous connecting rod 476 are both parallel to the synchronous shaft 474.
[0134] By setting up the synchronous shaft 474, the first synchronous link 475, and the second synchronous link 476, the stability of the punching lifting frame 473 can be improved, and the problem of unstable lifting of the punching lifting frame 473 due to the driving difference of the punching drive components 471 at both ends can be reduced.
[0135] Please refer to Figure 24 and Figure 25 It should also be noted that the punching fixture 46 includes an upper fixture and a lower fixture. The profile is conveyed between the upper and lower fixtures. A punch is mounted on the upper fixture. The punching lifting frame 473 descends and presses against the upper fixture, causing the punch to punch holes in the profile. The profile processing device generally includes multiple sets of punching fixtures 46. The punching lifting frame 473 descends and simultaneously presses against multiple sets of punching fixtures 46. Therefore, the smoothness of the lifting frame 473's movement is very important.
[0136] It should be noted that the rear end of the punching fixture 46 can be connected to the rivet point device 48 or the corner bracket mounting device 5. Alternatively, the rivet point device and the corner bracket mounting device 5 can be sequentially set at the rear end of the punching fixture 46 as needed.
[0137] Please refer to Figure 27 and Figure 28 In this embodiment, the profile processing device also includes a riveting device 48, which includes a riveting conveying platform 481, a riveting clamping assembly 484, a riveting support block 485, a riveting pressing block 486, a riveting punching mechanism 487, and a lifting and transfer mechanism. The profile processing device also includes a punching and blanking robot 43.
[0138] The rivet conveying platform 481 is located below the punching fixture 46, and the rivet clamping assembly 484 is located below the rivet conveying platform 481. It is used to clamp the profile and position the profile. The rivet support block 485 is movably arranged on both sides of the rivet conveying platform 481. It is used to slide to the inside of both ends of the profile to support the profile. The rivet pressing block 486 is raised and lowered above the rivet conveying platform 481. It is used to press down and fix the profile. The rivet punching mechanism 487 is raised and lowered above the rivet conveying platform 481. It is used to perform rivet work on the profile.
[0139] Please refer to Figure 29 The lifting and transfer mechanism includes a receiving component 482 that is lifted and installed on the riveting point conveying platform 481 near the punching fixture 46. The top of the receiving component 482 is provided with a receiving groove 4821. The punching and unloading robot 43 is movably installed between the punching fixture 46 and the receiving component 482, and is used to grab and transport the punched profile on the punching fixture 46 into the receiving groove 4821.
[0140] A blocking element 483 is provided on one side of the mounting base of the punching fixture 46 near the receiving groove 4821. The blocking element 483 is located above the receiving groove 4821 and is a bent plate structure, with one end of the blocking element 483 bent and extending into the receiving groove 4821. It should be noted that because the profile is a long strip product, as long as one end of the blocking element 483 is bent and extended in the extension direction of the receiving groove 4821, the blocking element 483 can affect the orientation of the profile when it falls into the receiving groove 4821.
[0141] A receiving interface is formed between the blocking member 483 and the receiving groove 4821. The width of the receiving interface is greater than the width of the main body 211, but less than the total width of the extension plate 212 and the main body 211. In this way, the blocking member 483 will block the extension plate 212, causing the main body 211 to fall into the receiving groove 4821 first. This process causes the profile to flip at a set angle before falling into the receiving groove 4821.
[0142] It should be noted that the orientation requirements for the profile differ during punching and subsequent riveting or corner bracket installation. When the profile is on the punching fixture 46, the extension plate 212 is horizontally placed on the top surface of the main body 211. When the profile falls into the receiving groove 4821, the blocking member 483 blocks the extension plate 212, and the profile will flip at a set angle before falling into the receiving groove 4821. When the receiving member 482 places the profile on the riveting conveying platform 481, the extension plate 212 is vertically placed on the side of the main body 11.
[0143] Please refer to Figure 28 and Figure 30 The riveting conveying platform 481 has a clamping cylinder 491, a measuring cylinder 492, and a distance sensor 493 at its two ends. The output end of the clamping cylinder 491 is connected to a clamping block 4911, and the output end of the measuring cylinder 492 is connected to a measuring block 4921. The profile on the riveting conveying platform 481 is located between the clamping block 4911 and the measuring block 4921. The distance sensor 493 is mounted on the measuring cylinder 492, and the measuring block 4921 is located in the measuring direction of the distance sensor 493.
[0144] It should be noted that the driving force of the clamping cylinder 491 is less than that of the measuring cylinder 492. This ensures that one end of each profile contacts the clamping block 4911 at a fixed position, while the other end contacts the measuring block 4921. When there is a deviation in the profile length, because the driving force of the clamping cylinder 491 is less than that of the measuring cylinder 492, the clamping block 4911 remains in approximately the same position each time, while the position of the measuring block 4921 will vary. The distance between the clamping block 4911 and the measuring block 4921 is measured by the distance sensor 493 to determine whether the profile length is within acceptable limits.
[0145] Please refer to Figure 31 In this embodiment, the profile processing device further includes a corner code mounting device 5, which includes a corner code mounting conveyor platform 51, a corner code feeding box 52, a corner code loading robot 53, a corner code feeding pusher 54, a guide 55, and a corner code pre-installation pusher 56. Depending on the requirements, the corner code mounting conveyor platform 51 can be located below the punching fixture 46, with the profile placed onto it by the receiving member 482. Alternatively, the corner code mounting conveyor platform 51 can be docked to the rear end of the riveting point conveyor platform 481 as needed.
[0146] The profile is located on the corner code installation conveying platform 51. Corner code feeding boxes 52 are provided on both sides of the corner code installation conveying platform 51. The corner code feeding box 52 includes a receiving cavity. The top of the receiving cavity is provided with a feeding opening 521 that connects to the external space. The side of the receiving cavity is provided with a feeding groove 522 for the corner code feeding robot 53 to put the corner code into the receiving cavity.
[0147] Please refer to Figure 32 The corner code 6 comprises two L-shaped corner code plates. When the corner code 6 is located within the receiving cavity, its inner angles face upwards, and both corner code plates form a predetermined angle with the horizontal plane. Figure 32 After the orientation of the center corner code 6 is rotated 180 degrees, it is placed into the receiving cavity.
[0148] The bottom of the receiving cavity has a push port and a discharge port on each side. A corner bracket feeding pusher 54 is slidably positioned on one side of the push port. The sliding trajectory of the corner bracket feeding pusher 54 extends within the receiving cavity. By moving, the corner bracket feeding pusher 54 pushes out one corner bracket 6 from the bottom of the receiving cavity. It is understood that a sliding and adjustable baffle plate can be installed at the discharge port. By adjusting the baffle plate, the size of the discharge port can be changed, ensuring that the corner bracket feeding pusher 54 always pushes out only one corner bracket 6.
[0149] A guide 55 is located on one side of the discharge port, and a guide groove 551 is provided on the guide 55. The bottom surface of the guide groove 551 is lower than the lowest point of the discharge port. A guide block 552 is provided on the side of the guide groove 551 away from the corner bracket installation conveyor platform 51 to guide the corner bracket to fall flat into the guide groove 551. Since the corner bracket 6 in the receiving cavity has its outer sharp corner at the bottom, when the corner bracket 6 is pushed out by the corner bracket feeding push block 54, due to the weight of the corner bracket 6 and the guiding effect of the guide block 552, the corner bracket 6 will flip at a certain angle and then fall flat into the guide groove 551.
[0150] The corner code pre-installation push block 56 is slidably disposed on the side of the guide groove 551 away from the corner code installation and conveying platform 51. The corner code pre-installation push block 56 extends through the guide 55 into the guide groove 551. The corner code pre-installation push block 56 is used to push the corner code 6 into the profile.
[0151] In addition, the corner bracket installation device 5 also includes a push positioning block 57 for pushing the corner bracket into contact with the inner wall of the guide groove 551, so that the corner bracket pre-installation push block 56 can accurately push the corner bracket into the profile.
[0152] The corner code installation device 5 also includes a corner code installation clamping block 58 that is lifted and positioned above the corner code installation conveying platform 51. Figure 33 The number 58 specifically refers to the drive component that drives the angle bracket mounting pressure block 58 to rise and fall.
[0153] The corner code installation device 5 also includes a corner code installation clamping component 59 located below the corner code installation conveying platform 51. The corner code installation clamping component 59 can clamp the profile to position and fix the profile. In conjunction with the corner code installation pressing block 58 pressing the profile, the subsequent corner code pre-installation push block 56 can accurately push the corner code into the profile.
[0154] Please refer to Figure 32It should also be noted that the corner bracket loading robot 53 has three triangularly distributed clamping posts 531 at its gripping end, and multiple stacked corner brackets 6 are placed in the corner bracket tray 5A. When the corner bracket loading robot 53 grips the multiple stacked corner brackets 6, one clamping post 531 clamps the inner corner of the corner bracket 6, and two clamping posts 531 clamp the outer surface of the corner bracket 6. Then, the multiple stacked corner brackets 6 are placed into the corner bracket feeding box 52 through the loading opening 521.
[0155] To improve work efficiency, corner code installation conveyor platform 51 can also be equipped with corner code secondary push-in mechanisms 5B on both sides. Along the conveying direction of corner code installation conveyor platform 51, the corner code secondary push-in mechanisms 5B are located at the rear end of corner code pre-installation push blocks 56. By setting up corner code secondary push-in mechanisms 5B, the corner code pre-installation push blocks 56 do not need to push the corner code into the profile all at once, reducing the time the profile stays at the corner code pre-installation push blocks 56 and avoiding affecting the overall work speed. It should also be noted that one corner code secondary push-in mechanism 5B on each side of corner code installation conveyor platform 51 forms a group, and the number of corner code secondary push-in mechanisms 5B is not limited to one group.
[0156] The working principle of the fully automatic profile processing equipment in this embodiment:
[0157] First, the profile feeding device 1 feeds the profiles:
[0158] The operator places multiple profiles 21 onto multiple feeding platforms 11. The operator can then contact the multiple profiles 21 with the end limiting plates 18 to align the multiple profiles 21. It is important to ensure that the orientation of the multiple profiles 21 is consistent.
[0159] The gripper 142 will flip to the receiving position in advance. When the profile 21 on the feeding platform 11 is detected by the sensor 19, the linear drive mechanism 121 will drive the loading positioning block 12 to move and contact the profile 21 on the feeding platform 11. Through the pushing of the loading positioning block 12, the profile 21 can be conveyed to the gripper 142 in a more correct state, and the distance between the two profiles 21 closest to the supporting conveying mechanism 13 can be improved. At this time, the longitudinal positioning plate 161 can also be driven to move by the longitudinal drive member 162 to perform longitudinal positioning of the profile 21 on the feeding platform 11.
[0160] Then, when both sensors 19 detect the presence of profiles 21, the lifting plate 15 rises and lifts a predetermined number of profiles 21 from the feeding platform 11. When the lifting plate 15 has lifted the predetermined number of profiles 21, the feeding platform 11 reverses and transports the remaining profiles 21 a predetermined distance, so that the lifted profiles 21 are at a predetermined distance from the remaining profiles 21 on the feeding platform 11.
[0161] Next, the lifting plate 15 lowers a set number of profiles 21, allowing the grippers 142 at the receiving position to easily and accurately grasp the set number of profiles 21. Then, the flipping shaft 141 drives the grippers 142 to flip, causing the receiving block 137 to rise and receive the flipped profiles 21. The receiving block 137 then lowers to place the profiles 21 onto the first support wheel 132 and the second support wheel 133. At this time, two transverse driving members 171 can also drive two transverse positioning plates 172 to move closer to each other, performing transverse positioning of the profiles 21 on the support conveying mechanism 13.
[0162] After the material is loaded, the cutting and loading robot 31 clamps the profile 21 located on the first support wheel 132 and the second support wheel 133, grabs and moves the profile 21 a certain distance according to the set program, and then places the profile on the two sets of cutting and positioning components. The lateral movable positioning block 332 moves and cooperates with the lateral fixed positioning block 331 to perform lateral clamping and positioning of a set number of profiles. At the same time, the bottom movable positioning block 333 and the top movable positioning block 334 cooperate to clamp and position the upper and lower surfaces of the profile.
[0163] After the profile is clamped and positioned, the cutting drive 322 slides to drive the blade 323 to feed and cut. At the same time, the dust suction port 3241 can suck away cutting debris and dust.
[0164] After cutting, the profiles proceed to the subsequent punching, riveting, or corner bracket installation processes.
[0165] The conveyor plate 412 of the material sorting and transfer mechanism 41 causes the material sorting support 413 to lift the profiles cut by the profile cutting device and transport them to the transfer support 34. At the same time, the transfer support 414 lifts the profiles on the transfer support 34 and transports them to the punching conveyor 44. The material sorting support 413 separates multiple profiles at a set distance and places them on the transfer support 34.
[0166] The lifting mechanism 45 lifts a profile from the punching conveyor 44 for the punching loading robot 42 to grasp. The punching loading robot 42 grasps a profile and conveys it to the punching fixture 46. The punching lifting frame 473 of the punching mechanism 47 descends and simultaneously squeezes multiple sets of punching fixtures 46 to complete the punching operation.
[0167] Then, the punching and unloading robot 43 picks up the punched profile from the punching fixture 46 and conveys it into the receiving groove 4821. The blocking member 483 blocks the extension plate 212, causing the profile to flip at a set angle before falling into the receiving groove 4821. The receiving member 482 carries the profile as it descends and is then placed onto the riveting point conveying platform 481.
[0168] When riveting, the riveting clamping component 484 clamps the profile and positions it, the riveting support block 485 slides to the inside of both ends of the profile to support it, the riveting pressing block 486 presses down to fix the profile, and then the riveting stamping mechanism 487 presses down to perform the riveting work on the profile.
[0169] When corner bracket installation is required, the profile is conveyed to the corner bracket installation conveyor platform 51. The corner bracket feeding pusher 54 pushes out the bottom corner bracket 6 of the receiving cavity, and then the corner bracket falls flat into the guide groove 551. The push positioning block 57 pushes the corner bracket to contact the inner wall of the guide groove 551. The corner bracket installation clamping assembly 59 clamps and fixes the profile in place, the corner bracket installation pressing block 58 presses the profile tightly, and the corner bracket pre-installation pusher 56 can accurately push the corner bracket into the profile. Finally, the profile is output.
[0170] In summary, although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, the above preferred embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
