Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of processing equipment, and particularly relates to an automatic bulging device for a cylindrical shell. BACKGROUND
[0002] The shape precision of a cylindrical shell directly affects the subsequent assembly precision and overall performance of a product, and cylindrical shells are widely used due to uniform stress and strong adaptability. In the processing flow of a cylindrical shell, the bulging process is a key link for ensuring that the cylindrical shell meets the roundness requirement. In this process, uniform radial force is applied to the inner wall of the formed cylindrical shell to correct the deformation caused by rolling, welding or stamping during the production process, so as to ensure the regular shape of the shell.
[0003] At present, the bulging processing of a cylindrical shell in the industry is mostly semi-automated or manually operated. In this mode, the operator manually places the shell to be processed one by one on the bulging tool in the feeding link, and then manually takes it down and transports it to the discharging area after the bulging is completed. The entire process relies on the continuous intervention of the operator. This processing method has many drawbacks. On the one hand, manual operation is inefficient, and only a single workpiece can be processed at a time. The taking, placing and positioning in the feeding and discharging processes are time-consuming, and it is difficult to meet the rhythm requirements of mass production. On the other hand, the precision stability of manual positioning is poor, and the experience difference or operation deviation of the operator can easily cause the positioning of the shell on the bulging tool to deviate, which in turn causes uneven bulging force and quality problems such as inconsistent shell wall thickness and roundness out-of-tolerance. At the same time, the involvement of manual operation increases labor costs, and long-term repetitive operation can easily cause operator fatigue, further increasing the operation error rate and safety hazards. Therefore, it is an urgent need for the development of the industry to develop a device that can realize the automatic bulging of a cylindrical shell throughout the process, to solve the problems of high dependence on manual operation, low efficiency and unstable quality.

[0020] The embodiment provides an automatic bulging device for a cylindrical shell, comprising: a rack 1 serving as a mounting base and bearing frame of the whole device, which is welded by high-strength steel material, stable in structure and high in flatness, and capable of providing a stable mounting reference for various functional mechanisms and effectively avoiding processing errors caused by rack 1 shaking during device operation; a feeding mechanism 2 fixedly arranged at a specified area of the rack 1 and specially used for realizing continuous and orderly feeding of the cylindrical shell, capable of meeting the requirement of continuous feeding in mass production and reducing the trouble of frequent manual feeding; a bulging mechanism 6 precisely arranged at a corresponding station beside the rack 1, and the core function of which is to adaptively position and clamp the cylindrical shell and simultaneously generate bulging force uniformly distributed along the cylindrical shell in a radial direction through an internal driving structure, the bulging force stably acting on the inner wall of the cylindrical shell, so that the shell precisely deformed in the forming process is precisely stretched into a regular cylinder, thereby guaranteeing the cylindrical accuracy of the shell; a first grabbing mechanism 3 installed on the rack 1 and corresponding to the transfer path between the feeding mechanism 2 and the bulging mechanism 6, which has multidimensional motion adjustment capability, can precisely grab the cylindrical shell to be processed on the feeding mechanism 2, and stably place the shell on the processing station of the bulging mechanism 6 according to preset positioning parameters, thereby realizing automatic transfer of the workpiece from the feeding link to the processing link and replacing manual taking and placing to improve efficiency; a second grabbing mechanism 4 also arranged on the rack 1 and corresponding to the area between the bulging mechanism 6 and a discharging mechanism 5, which is used for timely and stably grabbing the cylindrical shell from the bulging mechanism 6 after the bulging processing of the cylindrical shell is completed, so as to avoid the influence of the workpiece retained after processing on subsequent production; and the discharging mechanism 5 fixed at the finished product output end of the rack 1 and specially used for receiving and conveying the cylindrical shell after the bulging processing transferred by the second grabbing mechanism 4, thereby realizing orderly collection and conveying of the finished product. Through the coordinated cooperation of the mechanisms, the whole device constructs a full-automatic processing flow from raw material feeding to finished product output, greatly improves production efficiency and reduces labor cost.
[0021] In the embodiment, the feeding mechanism 2 comprises a first support frame 20 connected to the rack 1 by bolt fastening. The support frame adopts a profile splicing structure, which has the characteristics of lightweight and high strength, and can provide reliable support for subsequent components. A first conveying belt 21 capable of stable transmission is assembled on the first support frame 20. The surface of the conveying belt is treated to prevent slipping, which can effectively prevent the cylindrical shell from sliding and deviating during conveying, and ensure the feeding accuracy. A feeding frame 22 is fixedly installed on the first support frame 20 at the feeding end of the first conveying belt 21. The feeding frame 22 is arranged at an inclined angle, and the inclined angle is optimized to ensure that the cylindrical shell can smoothly slide down by its own gravity, and to avoid the shell from being damaged due to too fast sliding speed. The cylindrical shells to be processed can be placed on the feeding frame 22 in batches, and then are guided to slide into the first conveying belt 21 one by one. The continuous operation of the conveying belt realizes the continuous feeding of the workpieces, and the labor intensity is reduced.
[0022] In the embodiment, the bulging mechanism 6 comprises a workbench 60 placed on the ground beside the rack 1. The bottom of the workbench 60 is provided with leveling foot pads, which can ensure the levelness of the workbench 60 by adjusting the height of the foot pads, thereby laying a foundation for processing accuracy. A main machine capable of stable power output is fixedly installed on the workbench 60. The main machine adopts a servo driving system, which can realize accurate control of power output. The output end of the main machine is rigidly connected with a gas expansion shaft 61 through a shaft coupling.

The cylindrical shell is accurately sleeved on the gas expansion shaft 61 during processing. The outer diameter of the gas expansion shaft 61 is matched with the inner diameter of the shell, thereby ensuring the initial positioning accuracy. The main machine is started according to the preset processing parameters, and drives the gas expansion shaft 61 to uniformly expand along the radial direction to generate stable bulging force. The bulging force uniformly extrudes the inner wall of the cylindrical shell, so that the deformation part of the shell gradually fits the outer circular contour of the gas expansion shaft 61 under the action of the bulging force, and finally forms a regular cylindrical structure. Compared with the traditional mechanical bulging, the bulging method realized by the gas expansion shaft 61 can make the bulging force more uniform, effectively avoid the problem of uneven wall thickness or cracking caused by excessive local stress of the shell, and improve the stability of product processing quality.

[0024] In this embodiment, the second grabbing mechanism 4 includes a third support frame 40 rigidly connected with the rack 1, the installation position of the support frame is accurately calibrated to ensure that the relative positions of the expansion mechanism 6 and the blanking mechanism 5 meet the transfer requirements; the third support frame 40 is fixedly installed with a fourth sliding table 41, the fourth sliding table 41 is arranged in the horizontal direction to provide a moving track for subsequent components; the fourth sliding table 41 is movably provided with a fifth sliding table 42 through a sliding block, the fifth sliding table 42 can move quickly in the horizontal direction along the fourth sliding table 41; the fifth sliding table 42 is movably provided with a sixth sliding table 43 through a guide structure, the sixth sliding table 43 can realize vertical lifting movement, and through the coordinated action of the fourth, fifth and sixth sliding tables, the grabbing component can realize multidirectional movement; the sixth sliding table 43 is fixedly provided with a second rotary air cylinder 44 through a support, the second rotary air cylinder 44 can adjust the grabbing angle of the finished product according to actual production requirements, which facilitates accurate placement of the workpiece on the blanking mechanism 5; the output end of the second rotary air cylinder 44 is fixedly connected with a clamping assembly through a connecting shaft, and the clamping assembly is the same as the above, which realizes stable and accurate transfer of the finished product from the machining station to the blanking link, and guarantees the continuity of the production process.

[0027] The device not only achieves the core goal of full-process automatic bulging processing, but also unexpectedly produces significant "production environment adaptability improvement and comprehensive cost optimization" dual technical effects. On the one hand, due to the combination of the inclined rack and the anti-skid conveyor belt of the feeding mechanism 2, the design of the rubber clamp block 39 and the spring 302 buffer positioning ring 300 of the grabbing mechanism, and the flexible bulging mode of the bulging mechanism 6 gas bulging shaft 61, the device has good adaptability to different wall thicknesses and different materials (stainless steel, aluminum alloy, carbon steel) cylindrical shells. It does not need to replace special tooling for specific workpieces. Only by adjusting the bulging force parameters of the gas bulging shaft 61 and the clamping force of the grabbing assembly can the processing switching of different specifications of workpieces be completed. The switching time is shortened from 30 minutes of traditional equipment to less than 5 minutes, greatly improving the versatility and production flexibility of the device. This adaptability unexpectedly breaks the limitations of traditional bulging equipment "one machine one use", especially suitable for multi-variety and small-batch production scenarios, reducing the investment cost of special tooling. On the other hand, the automatic collaborative design of each mechanism unexpectedly reduces the contact damage of the workpiece during the transfer process. The rubber clamp block 39 avoids surface scratches caused by rigid clamping. The uniform bulging force of the gas bulging shaft 61 prevents workpiece deformation and cracking. The buffer sliding design of the inclined rack reduces collision damage, so that the finished product qualification rate is improved from 85% of traditional manual operation to more than 99%. At the same time, automatic operation does not require operators to be close to the processing area, avoiding potential safety hazards such as workpiece ejection and high-temperature burns during the bulging process, reducing the enterprise's safety production management cost and accident risk. The "versatility improvement + damage rate reduction + safety guarantee" composite effect far exceeds the expected goal of simply realizing automatic processing, bringing more comprehensive production efficiency optimization to enterprises.
