Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to hairpin wire processing technology, in particular to a hairpin wire feeding device and a feeding method suitable for a 3D cross-layer forming process, and is especially suitable for accurate feeding positioning before split-drawing forming. BACKGROUND

[0002] As the core power component of electric vehicles, the performance and cost control of the motor directly determine the market competitiveness of the whole vehicle. The hairpin wire winding of the flat motor has become the mainstream configuration in the industry due to its high slot fill rate, excellent heat dissipation performance and compact structure advantages. As a key core technology with high technical content in the manufacturing of flat motors, the forming precision and efficiency of the hairpin wire 3D forming directly affect the final performance and production economy of the motor.

[0003] In the current market mainstream 3D forming production scheme, a single die stamping forming process is mostly used: the hairpin wire 3D forming is completed by one-time stamping, and relying on the die library mode, a dedicated die is provided for each specification of hairpin wire to realize batch manufacturing of different types of hairpin wire. However, this technical solution has significant limitations: in order to cover the full series of hairpin wire products of the same stator, a complete die library must be built, all dedicated dies must be integrated and installed in the equipment, and the die switching must be completed through a servo system. This not only greatly increases the initial investment cost of the equipment, but also occupies a large amount of production space, limiting the flexibility of the space layout of the production line, and the die switching process is complicated, affecting the production continuity.

[0004] Based on the above industry pain points, the applicant innovatively proposes a cross-layer forming technology: through the modular die design of the cross-layer forming mechanism, different hairpin wires with different angles and different S-bend sizes can be quickly adapted; the matching split-drawing forming mechanism realizes accurate forming of different top arc radii through multi-axis linkage trajectory control. This technical solution greatly reduces the number of special dies, significantly reduces the die purchase and later repair costs, is time-saving and convenient to operate, and greatly improves the production flexibility.

[0005] However, the industrial application of the cross-layer forming technology faces a key technical difficulty: the cross-layer forming needs to be fed multiple times at multiple forming stations, and in order to ensure the consistency of batch production products, the accuracy of the feeding angle is extremely high; at the same time, two core requirements need to be met during split-drawing forming: first, one leg of the hairpin wire needs to be fixed, and the other leg needs to be twisted to realize forming, so the fixed end needs to be stable and the movable end needs to have sufficient swinging space; second, the feeding needs to be arranged at a uniform angle to ensure forming accuracy and avoid damaging the insulating paint on the surface of the hairpin wire.

[0006] Currently, there are two main ways of hairpin wire feeding in the industry, both of which have obvious defects:

[0007] (1) Directly feeding according to the feeding angle: the hairpin wire is moved to the target station along the preset angle by the carrying mechanism. However, during the feeding process, the start-stop impact of the carrying mechanism and the unbalanced effect of the gravity of the hairpin wire itself can easily cause the hairpin wire to shake and deviate, making it difficult to stably maintain the preset angle, thereby causing feeding positioning deviation, affecting the forming size precision, and ultimately leading to a decrease in product qualification rate;

[0008] (2) Adjusting the angle after feeding: the hairpin wire is placed randomly in the station, and the angle is corrected by the additional clamping jaw or auxiliary mold clamping the hairpin wire. In this way, the angle adjustment process can cause direct friction and extrusion between the clamping jaw, the mold and the insulating paint on the surface of the hairpin wire, which can easily cause damage to the insulating paint and damage to the insulating performance of the hairpin wire, thereby shortening its service life. At the same time, the additional angle adjustment process prolongs the feeding cycle of a single hairpin wire, reduces the overall production efficiency, and is difficult to meet the needs of large-scale continuous production.

[0009] Therefore, it is urgent to develop a feeding device and method capable of precisely controlling the feeding angle and effectively protecting the insulating paint, thereby improving the hairpin wire forming quality and production efficiency and promoting the large-scale application of cross-layer forming technology.

[0041] Embodiment:

[0042] As Figures 1-2 shown, according to one general technical concept of the present application, a hairpin wire 3D cross-layer forming material feeding device is provided.

[0043] The device mainly consists of a material feeding mechanism and a material receiving mechanism, and each mechanism works cooperatively to realize the hairpin wire 100Figure 6 ) accurate feeding, the hairpin wire 100 is in an n-shaped structure and includes a left leg 110, a left shoulder 120, a right shoulder 130 and a right leg 140 connected in sequence.

[0044] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the core function of the feeding mechanism is to smoothly transport the hairpin wire 100 from the feeding position to the receiving station and ensure stable posture, including a transport module 11, a feeding clamp jaw module 12 and a limiting jaw 13.

[0045] The transport module 11 is composed of a lifting cylinder 111 and a horizontal moving cylinder 112, which realizes the lifting and horizontal movement of the feeding clamp jaw module 12 along the preset direction, and provides power for the spatial transport of the hairpin wire 100; it should be noted that the lifting cylinder 111 is used to drive the feeding clamp jaw module 12 in the released state to be inserted through the top of the left shoulder 120 to the left leg 110 on both sides, or to drive the feeding clamp jaw module 12 in the released state to extend through the top of the left shoulder 120.

[0046] The feeding clamp jaw module 12 includes a clamp jaw cylinder 121, a first feeding clamp jaw 122 and a second feeding clamp jaw 123, which are driven by the clamp jaw cylinder 121 to clamp or release along the thickness direction of the left leg 110 of the hairpin wire 100.

[0047] As shown in Figure 4 , the limiting jaw 13 is in an F shape and has a connecting part 131 and a limiting part 132, the connecting part 131 is fixedly connected with the first feeding clamp jaw 122, and the limiting part 132 is arranged towards the second feeding clamp jaw 123 and corresponds to the left leg 110, and is inserted into the part of the left leg 110 close to the left shoulder 120 with the clamping action of the feeding clamp jaw module 12, thereby limiting the width direction of the left leg 110 to prevent the hairpin wire 100 from deviating in the width direction during transport; when released, the left shoulder 120 is first supported to avoid the hairpin wire 100 from falling or shaking, and at the same time, the left leg 110 is allowed to rotate to adjust the angle.

[0048] In addition, the feeding mechanism also includes a slide 14, a stop block 15 and a proximity sensor 16: the slide 14 is used to transport the hairpin wire 100, the hook 141 at the discharge end holds the connection between the left shoulder 120 and the right shoulder 130 of the hairpin wire 100, the stop block 15 is used to limit the in-place position of the left leg 110 and the right leg 140 to achieve preliminary positioning; the proximity sensor 16 detects the in-place condition of the left leg 110 and the right leg 140 to provide a signal trigger for the subsequent clamping action.

[0049] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, the receiving mechanism is located at the receiving station and is used to adjust and fix the feeding angle of the card issuing line 100. It includes a receiving hook module and a swing arm 22.

[0050] The receiving hook module includes a mounting base 211, a slider 212, a first receiving hook 213, a second receiving hook 214, a first connecting rod 215, a second connecting rod (not shown), a spring 216, a push rod 217, a telescopic cylinder 218, and a top block 219. The mounting base 211 has a mounting cavity, in which the slider 212 slides. The push rod 217 is positioned along the sliding direction of the slider, with one end fixedly connected to the slider 212 and the other end extending out of the mounting cavity. The spring 216 is positioned in the mounting cavity along the sliding direction of the slider 212, with one end abutting against the slider 212 and the other end abutting against the mounting cavity. The middle section of the first receiving hook 213 is connected to a first rotating shaft 2110. The middle section of the second receiving hook 214 is rotated into the mounting cavity via the second rotating shaft 2111; one end of the first connecting rod 215 is hinged to the slider 212, and the other end is hinged to the tail section of the first receiving hook 213; one end of the second connecting rod is hinged to the slider 212, and the other end is hinged to the tail section of the second receiving hook 214; the hook sections of the first receiving hook 213 and the second receiving hook extend out of the mounting cavity and are arranged opposite to each other, forming a structure for clamping the right support leg 140 with the side wall of the mounting base 211; the telescopic cylinder 218 is fixedly installed and used to control the top block 219 to move along the sliding direction of the slider 212, and the top block 219 and the end of the top rod 217 extending out of the mounting cavity are arranged opposite to each other.

[0051] The telescopic cylinder 218 drives the top block 219 to push the top rod 217, which in turn drives the slider 212 to compress the spring 216 and slide. Then, the first connecting rod 215 and the second connecting rod control the synchronous opening and closing of the first receiving hook 213 and the second receiving hook 214 to achieve stable clamping or release of the right support leg 140. The spring 216 enables the first receiving hook 213 and the second receiving hook 214 to automatically return to the open state after the telescopic cylinder 218 is reset.

[0052] Swing arm 22: Fixedly connected to the first rotating shaft 2110 corresponding to the first receiving hook 213. When the receiving hook module clamps the right support leg 140, the first rotating shaft 2110 rotates synchronously to drive the swing arm 22 to swing, pushing the left support leg 110 to rotate smoothly from the receiving angle (initial contact angle) to the feeding angle (the angle required for forming and feeding), so as to achieve precise angle adjustment.

[0053] like Figure 7 As shown, based on the above-described apparatus, the feeding method of the present invention includes the following steps, each step working together to achieve precise and non-destructive feeding:

[0054] Preliminary positioning and clamping: the feeding clamp jaw module 12 clamps the left leg 110 along the thickness direction of the left leg 110 to avoid extrusion of the insulating paint along the width direction; at the same time, the F-shaped limiting jaw 13 is inserted into the part of the left leg 110 close to the left shoulder 120 with the clamping action to form a limit in the width direction of the left leg 110, realizing "thickness + width" two-way positioning, and ensuring the posture of the pin-shaped wire 100 stable without shaking and deviation during the conveying process.

[0055] Conveying to the receiving station: the lifting cylinder 111 and the horizontal moving cylinder 112 of the conveying module 11 act in coordination to control the feeding clamp jaw module 12 to move the pin-shaped wire 100 along the preset direction to the receiving station; at this time, the right leg 140 enters the clamping area of the receiving hook jaw module, and the left leg 110 is abutted on the swing arm 22 at the receiving angle to complete the station docking.

[0056] Angle adjustment and fixation: the telescopic cylinder 218 drives the top block 219 to push the top rod 217, drives the sliding block 212 to slide, and makes the first receiving hook jaw 213 and the second receiving hook jaw 214 move towards each other through the first connecting rod 215 and the second connecting rod to clamp the right leg 140; at the same time, the first rotating shaft 2110 rotates to drive the swing arm 22 to swing and push the left leg 110 to rotate stably from the receiving angle to the feeding angle; in this process, the feeding clamp jaw module 12 synchronously releases the left leg 110 to provide space for the swing of the left leg 110, and the limiting jaw 13 temporarily supports the left shoulder 120 to avoid the pin-shaped wire 100 shaking or falling and additional friction with the insulating paint; after the left leg 110 swings to the feeding angle, the limiting jaw 13 is separated from the left leg 110, at this time, the right leg 140 is fixed by the receiving hook jaw module, and the left leg 110 is at the preset feeding angle, meeting the positioning requirements of the subsequent forming process.

[0057] Cyclic reset: after the feeding is completed, the conveying module 11 controls the feeding clamp jaw module 12 to reset to the initial position to complete the feeding.

[0058] The present application solves the problems of difficult control of the pin-shaped wire feeding angle and damage to the insulating paint in the prior art, has the "cooperative effect of two-way positioning" and the "technical advantage of synchronous angle adjustment", and is suitable for feeding in each forming process in the 3D cross-layer forming of the pin-shaped wire.

[0059] The above embodiments only exemplarily illustrate the principles and effects of the present application, and are not used to limit the present application. Any person skilled in the art can modify or change the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or changes completed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical thought disclosed by the present application should be covered by the claims of the present application.
