Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of mechanical device design technology, and in particular to bending forming devices and methods thereof. Background Technology
[0002] As the core support component of the car seat backrest, the seat back mesh is mainly composed of a mesh fabric and crisscrossing steel wires. The assembly stability of the transverse steel wires directly determines the support strength, comfort, and service life of the seat backrest. To achieve a reliable connection between the transverse steel wires and the plastic frame or metal bracket of the seat backrest, the extended sections of the transverse steel wires need to be bent into hook, snap, or fitted structures. These bent structures are then embedded into pre-reserved slots or positioning holes in the frame, limiting the axial movement and radial sway of the steel wires during vehicle travel, seat backrest adjustments, and passenger leaning. This prevents the mesh fabric from collapsing, wrinkling, or making abnormal noises due to loose steel wires, ensuring both the user experience and structural stability of the seat.
[0003] Currently, the bending of the transverse support wires of automotive seat backrests mainly relies on two methods: one is traditional manual bending combined with simple tooling for positioning, and the other is processing using semi-automatic bending equipment. As the automotive manufacturing industry continues to demand higher assembly precision, production efficiency, and product consistency for seat components, the technological difficulty and precision control requirements for wire bending are also increasing. Existing processing methods are gradually revealing many shortcomings in practical applications, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale, high-precision production.
[0004] In existing manual bending or simple tooling processing methods, the positioning of the back net and horizontal support wires largely relies on operator experience, lacking a comprehensive and rigid positioning mechanism. Some semi-automatic equipment can only achieve rough positioning of the back net in a single direction, failing to precisely fix the back net's horizontal and vertical bars and the areas where the wires are wrapped with the mesh in different areas, and not considering the actual tilt posture of the back net during assembly, resulting in significant alignment deviations between the wire extension sections and the bending station. During processing, the back net is prone to displacement and swaying, and the wires are prone to axial movement or radial oscillation, leading to poor consistency in the bending structure position and angle of products in the same batch, low compatibility with subsequent assembly with the seat frame, and a high rework rate.
[0005] Meanwhile, existing bending methods rely on manual application of external force to bend the steel wire. The bending angle and curvature depend entirely on the operator's feel, making it impossible to precisely control bending parameters. This easily leads to problems such as bending angle deviation, irregular curvature, and stress concentration at the bend, affecting assembly accuracy and potentially causing micro-cracks at the bend, reducing support strength and posing safety hazards. Some semi-automatic equipment uses cylinders to directly drive the bending block for stamping bending, lacking precise guiding and limiting structures. During bending, the steel wire easily deviates from the preset trajectory, and the bending angle cannot be flexibly adjusted according to needs. This makes it difficult to adapt to the processing requirements of various bending structures such as hooks and clips, limiting its applicability. Summary of the Invention

The vertical pressing cylinder drives the vertical pressing block to press the vertical rod of the car seat back net, so that the vertical rod of the car seat back net is in close contact with the upper surface of the vertical pressing block.
[0011] Furthermore, the transverse support wire clamping mechanism includes: A transverse support wire clamping and mounting column is fixedly mounted on the base; the upper surface of the transverse support wire clamping and mounting column is an inclined surface. The transverse support wire support groove is located on the upper surface of the transverse support wire clamping and mounting column; the transverse support wire and the vertical rod of the back net are wrapped together, and the transverse support wire is located in the transverse part of the transverse support wire support groove, and the vertical rod of the back net is located in the vertical part of the transverse support wire support groove.

[0013] Furthermore, the bending mechanism for the extension section of the transverse support wire includes: The first bending structure is used to bend the first bending portion of the transverse support wire extension upward.

The first limiting post is fixedly installed on the base; the first limiting post has a first limiting groove; the width of the first limiting groove is the same as the thickness of the fan-shaped bending and rotating plate. The first bending motor drives the first bending block on the fan-shaped bending rotating plate to rotate upward, causing the extension section of the transverse support steel wire located in the first gap to bend upward along the arc edge of the first guide block to form the first bending part; when the edge of the fan-shaped bending rotating plate moves into the first limiting groove, it stops bending the extension section of the transverse support steel wire upward and maintains this state.

[0016] Another technical solution adopted by the present invention is a bending method, which is applicable to the above-mentioned bending forming device, and the method includes: S1. Confirm that the base is stable and fixed, and that the back net positioning clamping mechanism, the transverse support wire clamping mechanism, and the transverse support wire extension bending mechanism are all in their initial reset state; check that the extension and retraction of the transverse clamping cylinder, vertical clamping cylinder, locking cylinder, and bending push cylinder are normal, and that the first bending motor and the second bending motor operate without abnormalities; confirm that there are no foreign objects in the first limit groove, each support groove, and bending groove to ensure smooth subsequent operations; S2. Place the car seat back net to be processed onto the back net positioning and clamping mechanism: Embed the horizontal bar of the back net into the horizontal support groove of the horizontal support mounting column, so that the horizontal bar fits against the inner wall of the horizontal support groove; Place the two vertical bars of the back net on the inclined surfaces of the vertical downward clamping blocks of the two symmetrically arranged vertical support clamping structures, ensuring that the vertical bars are placed flat; At the same time, adjust the position of the back net so that the wrapping point of the horizontal support wire and the back net vertical bar is aligned with the horizontal support wire support groove of the horizontal support wire clamping mechanism; S3. Activate the transverse clamping cylinder. The telescopic end of the transverse clamping cylinder drives the transverse upper clamping block to move. Under the guidance of the transverse flipping connecting block, the transverse upper clamping block smoothly flips and clamps the crossbar of the back net, so that the crossbar is in close contact with the surface of the transverse support mounting column, thus completing the positioning and fixing of the crossbar; S4. Simultaneously start the vertical clamping cylinders of the two vertical support clamping structures. The telescopic end of the vertical clamping cylinder drives the vertical clamping block to flip and press down with the cooperation of the vertical flipping connecting block, pressing the vertical rod of the back net onto the inclined surface of the vertical clamping block, thus completing the overall positioning and clamping of the back net. At this time, the back net is in an inclined state and fits the device due to the stepped height difference between the back net positioning and clamping mechanism and the transverse support wire clamping mechanism. S5. Activate the locking cylinder of the transverse support wire clamping mechanism. The telescopic end of the locking cylinder pushes the locking push plate and the locking guide plate to move, causing at least two parallel locking push pins to extend into the positioning holes of the transverse support wire support groove. At this time, the entanglement between the transverse support wire and the back net vertical rod, as well as the transverse support wire itself, are all confined to the transverse part of the transverse support wire support groove, while the back net vertical rod is confined to the vertical part. The locking push pins lock and fix the vertical rod, preventing the transverse support wire from shifting during subsequent bending. S6. Confirm that the extension of the transverse support steel wire passes through the first gap formed by the first guide block and the first limiting block, and corresponds to the first bending groove of the first bending block. S7. Start the first bending motor. The first bending motor drives the first drive gear to rotate. Through the meshing transmission between the first drive gear and the first driven gear on the fan-shaped bending rotating plate, the fan-shaped bending rotating plate is driven to rotate upward around the first bending mounting axis. S8. The fan-shaped bending rotating plate drives the first bending block to rotate upward synchronously. Under the constraint of the first bending groove, the extended section of the transverse support steel wire bends upward along the arc edge of the first guide block. When the edge of the fan-shaped bending rotating plate enters the first limiting groove of the first limiting post, the first bending motor stops running, maintains the current state, and completes the forming of the first bending part. S9. After confirming the formation of the first bend, the subsequent part of the transverse support wire extension enters the second gap formed by the second bending groove of the second guide block and the second bending block. S10. Start the second bending motor. The second bending motor drives the second drive gear to rotate. Through the meshing transmission between the second drive gear and the second driven gear on the second bending rotating plate, the second bending rotating plate is driven to rotate downward around the second bending mounting axis. S11. The second bending rotating plate drives the second bending block to move downward synchronously. Under the constraint of the second bending groove, the extended section of the transverse support steel wire bends downward along the arc edge of the second guide block to form the second bending part. According to the design requirements, by controlling the running angle of the second bending motor, the two bending structures are made to form a hook-shaped, snap-fit, or fit-fitting target bending structure, and then the second bending motor is stopped. S12. Sequentially control the second bending motor and the first bending motor to reverse, driving the second bending rotating plate and the fan-shaped bending rotating plate back to their initial positions; start the bending push cylinder to drive the bending push slide rail and each bending component to reset. S13. Sequentially control the locking cylinder, vertical pressing cylinder, and horizontal pressing cylinder to reset, the locking push column exits the positioning hole, and the vertical pressing block and horizontal pressing block loosen their pressing on the back net. S14. Remove the bent car seat back net from the device to complete a single bending operation; if continuous processing is required, repeat S2-S13.
[0017] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) The back net positioning clamping mechanism and the transverse support steel wire clamping mechanism with stepped height design make the back net present an inclined posture consistent with the actual assembly state after positioning, ensuring that the extended section of the transverse support steel wire is accurately aligned with the bending station, and ensuring the accuracy of the bending reference from the spatial posture.
[0018] (2) The back net positioning and clamping mechanism adopts a multi-point positioning and flexible clamping design. The horizontal support and clamping structure achieves stable clamping of the horizontal bar through the clamping block driven by the arc support groove and the parallelogram connecting rod. The vertical support and clamping structure achieves symmetrical positioning of the vertical bar through the inclined support and the inclined clamping cylinder. While avoiding scratches and pressure damage to the back net, it also eliminates the displacement and shaking of the back net during the processing.
[0019] (3) The transverse support wire clamping mechanism uses a cross-shaped support groove and a locking push column to rigidly fix the wire and the back net vertical rod to precisely limit the position of the wire and the back net vertical rod. The wire position is indirectly locked by fixing the vertical rod, which completely avoids the axial movement and radial swing of the wire during the bending process and provides a stable reference for high-precision bending.
[0020] (4) The bending mechanism adopts a dual control method of motor gear meshing transmission and mechanical limit. The first bending structure drives the bending block through the fan-shaped rotating plate, and the arc surface of the guide block realizes the first upward bending of the steel wire. The bending angle is precisely controlled by the limit groove of the limit post. The second bending structure completes the second downward bending on the same principle. The angle of the two bending can be flexibly adjusted by the motor parameters and the limit structure. The bending accuracy is much higher than that of the simple bending method driven by manual or cylinder.
[0021] (5) Both the bending block and the guide block adopt an arc-shaped structure design that matches the diameter of the steel wire, so that the steel wire always conforms to the arc surface and deforms smoothly during the bending process, avoiding defects such as steel wire cracks and deformation caused by stress concentration, and ensuring the mechanical properties and appearance consistency of the bending structure.
[0022] (6) By adjusting the angle and stroke parameters of the two bends, various bending structures such as hook, snap, and fit can be flexibly formed to meet the assembly requirements of different seat back plastic frames or metal brackets, and the adaptability is strong.

[0034] The technical solutions of the bending and forming apparatus and method provided by the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0035] Example 1 like Figures 1-10 As shown, a bending and forming device is used to bend the extended sections of the transverse support wires on the car seat back mesh to form hook-shaped, snap-fit, or fitted bending structures, which are then embedded in the reserved slots or positioning holes of the plastic frame or metal bracket of the seat back. This bending structure can limit the axial and radial displacement of the transverse support wires when the vehicle is moving, the seat back is adjusted, or the passenger is leaning against it, preventing the mesh from collapsing, wrinkling, or making abnormal noises due to loose wires. The device includes a base 1, which is used to support all the components of the device.
[0036] Specifically, base 1 has a flat mounting reference surface for fixing and mounting all functional components such as the back net positioning clamping mechanism 2, the transverse support wire clamping mechanism 3, and the transverse support wire extension bending mechanism 4. Adjustable anchor bolts are provided around the bottom of base 1 to allow for leveling according to the on-site installation environment. Additionally, mounting holes are pre-drilled at the bottom for fixing to the production line floor, enabling precise docking and fixing of the device to the production line and preventing equipment vibration from affecting processing accuracy during operation.
[0037] The device also includes a back net positioning and clamping mechanism 2, which is used to clamp the car seat back net onto the back net positioning and clamping mechanism 2.
[0038] Specifically, the back net positioning and clamping mechanism 2 functions to quickly and securely clamp the automotive seat back net to be processed at the preset processing position, ensuring that the extended sections of the transverse support steel wires on the back net can be accurately aligned with the processing station of the subsequent bending mechanism, thus providing a fundamental guarantee for bending accuracy. This mechanism, through its multi-point positioning and flexible clamping design, achieves secure clamping while avoiding damage to the back net fabric.
[0039] Furthermore, the back net positioning and clamping mechanism 2 includes a lateral support and pressing structure 201, which is used to support the crossbar of the corresponding car seat back net and press the crossbar of the car seat back net.
[0040] Specifically, the transverse support and clamping structure 201 is used to support, clamp, and position the crossbars of the car seat backrest net. Through the synergistic effect of bottom support and top clamping, it ensures that the backrest net crossbars maintain a fixed posture throughout the entire processing, without displacement or shaking. Its structural design fully considers the structural characteristics of the backrest net crossbars, possessing good adaptability and positioning accuracy.
[0041] Furthermore, the lateral support pressing structure 201 includes: at least two lateral support mounting columns 2011, which are vertically mounted on the base 1; each of the lateral support mounting columns 2011 is provided with a lateral support groove 2012; the crossbar of the car seat back net is located in the corresponding lateral support groove 2012.
[0042] Specifically, the horizontal support mounting column 2011, serving as the bottom support component of the back netting crossbar, is vertically installed on the pre-set mounting holes of the base 1 by bolt fastening, ensuring that the top surfaces of all horizontal support mounting columns 2011 are on the same horizontal plane. Each horizontal support mounting column 2011 has a horizontal support groove 2012 cut along its length at its top. The cross-sectional shape of this support groove adopts an arc-shaped structure matching the back netting crossbar, and the groove edges are rounded to avoid scratching the back netting fabric. The width and depth of the support groove are precisely calculated to ensure that the back netting crossbar can be stably placed in the groove, achieving initial positioning.
[0043] The transverse support and clamping structure 201 further includes: a transverse clamping mounting column 2013, which is vertically mounted on the base 1; the transverse clamping mounting column 2013 is located between two transverse support mounting columns 2011.
[0044] Specifically, the transverse clamping mounting column 2013 serves as the mounting carrier for the transverse clamping power component. It is vertically mounted on the base 1 by bolts and precisely positioned in the middle of the two transverse support mounting columns 2011 to ensure that the clamping force can be evenly applied to the middle area of the back net crossbar, thus avoiding deformation of the crossbar due to uneven force.
[0045] The lateral support and clamping structure 201 further includes a lateral clamping cylinder 2014, which is mounted on the lateral clamping mounting column 2013.
[0046] Specifically, the transverse clamping cylinder 2014, serving as the power source for transverse clamping, is fixedly installed on top of the transverse clamping mounting column 2013 via a flange connection. The cylinder's stroke and output pressure can be adjusted according to the material and thickness of the back mesh. Equipped with a buffer device, it ensures smooth clamping action and prevents impact loads from damaging the back mesh.
[0047] The lateral support and clamping structure 201 further includes: a lateral upper clamping block 2015, one end of which is hinged to the telescopic end of the lateral clamping cylinder 2014.
[0048] Specifically, the transverse pressing block 2015, as a pressing component that directly contacts the back net crossbar, has an arc-shaped groove on its bottom surface that matches the back net crossbar, increasing the contact area with the crossbar and improving pressing stability. One end of the transverse pressing block 2015 is hinged to the telescopic end of the transverse pressing cylinder 2014 via a hinge shaft, which can achieve a certain angle of rotation, ensuring that the bottom surface can completely fit the surface of the crossbar during pressing.
[0049] The lateral support and clamping structure 201 further includes a lateral flipping mounting block 2016, which is mounted on the lateral clamping cylinder 2014.
[0050] Specifically, the lateral flip mounting block 2016 serves as the mounting base for the flip connecting component. It is fixedly mounted on the cylinder body of the lateral clamping cylinder 2014 by bolts. Its position corresponds to the lateral upper clamping block 2015 and is used to install the lateral flip connecting block 2017.
[0051] The lateral support and clamping structure 201 further includes: at least two parallel lateral flipping connecting blocks 2017, which are used to connect the lateral flipping mounting block 2016 and the lateral upper clamping block 2015; one end of the two parallel lateral flipping connecting blocks 2017 is coaxially hinged to the lateral flipping mounting block 2016, and the other end is coaxially hinged to the lateral upper clamping block 2015; wherein, the lateral clamping cylinder 2014 drives the lateral upper clamping block 2015 to clamp the crossbar of the car seat back net, so that the crossbar of the car seat back net is in close contact with the surface of the lateral support mounting column 2011.
[0052] Specifically, the lateral flipping connecting block 2017 is used to connect the lateral flipping mounting block 2016 and the lateral upper pressing block 2015, forming a parallelogram linkage mechanism to ensure that the lateral upper pressing block 2015 maintains a horizontal posture during the flipping process. One end of the two parallel lateral flipping connecting blocks 2017 is mounted on the lateral flipping mounting block 2016 via a coaxial hinge shaft, and the other end is mounted on the lateral upper pressing block 2015 via another set of coaxial hinge shafts.
[0053] In this embodiment, after the back net crossbar is placed in the transverse support groove 2012, the transverse pressing cylinder 2014 is activated, the telescopic end extends, and the transverse upper pressing block 2015 is driven to rotate smoothly and move downward through the parallelogram linkage mechanism, finally pressing the back net crossbar tightly in the transverse support groove 2012, so as to achieve precise positioning and stable clamping of the back net crossbar.
[0054] The back net positioning and clamping mechanism 2 further includes at least two vertical support and clamping structures 202, which are used to support the vertical bars of the corresponding car seat back net respectively. The two vertical support and clamping structures 202 are arranged symmetrically to each other; the height of the horizontal support and clamping structure 201 is higher than the height of the horizontal support wire clamping mechanism 3, and the height of the horizontal support wire clamping mechanism 3 is higher than the height of the vertical support and clamping structure 202.
[0055] Specifically, the vertical support and clamping structure 202 is used to support and assist in positioning the vertical rods of the car seat back net, working in conjunction with the horizontal support and clamping structure 201 to form a comprehensive positioning of the entire back net. This structure uses at least two symmetrically arranged units to ensure balanced force on the back net, with each unit supporting one back net vertical rod.
[0056] Furthermore, the vertical support and clamping structure 202 includes: a vertically downward clamping block 2021, which is vertically mounted on the base 1; the upper surface of the vertically downward clamping block 2021 is an inclined surface; the vertical rod of the car seat back net is located on the vertically downward clamping block 2021.
[0057] Specifically, the vertically pressing block 2021 serves as the bottom support component for the back net vertical pole, and it is vertically mounted on the base 1 by bolts. Its top surface is machined into an inclined surface that matches the installation angle of the back net vertical pole. The inclined surface is polished and coated with anti-slip rubber pads, which not only ensures that the back net vertical pole is placed stably, but also increases friction to prevent the vertical pole from sliding; at the same time, the rubber pads can prevent direct contact between the metal and the back net fabric, preventing scratches on the back net.
[0058] The vertical support and clamping structure 202 further includes a vertical clamping cylinder 2022, which is installed in the inclined groove of the base 1; the bottom surface of the inclined groove is parallel to the upper surface of the vertical clamping block 2021.
[0059] Specifically, the vertical clamping cylinder 2022, serving as the power source for vertical clamping, is installed within a pre-set inclined groove in the base 1. The bottom surface of this inclined groove is parallel to the upper surface of the vertical clamping block 2021, ensuring that the cylinder's extension and retraction direction matches the axial direction of the vertical rod, allowing the clamping force to be precisely applied to the vertical rod. Simultaneously, the vertical clamping cylinder 2022 is also equipped with a buffer device to achieve smooth clamping.

[0064] The vertical support and pressing structure 202 further includes: at least two parallel vertical flip connecting blocks 2025, which are used to connect the vertical flip mounting block 2024 and the vertical pressing block 2023; one end of the two parallel vertical flip connecting blocks 2025 is coaxially hinged to the vertical flip mounting block 2024, and the other end is coaxially hinged to the vertical pressing block 2023; wherein, the vertical pressing cylinder 2022 drives the vertical pressing block 2023 to press the vertical rod of the car seat back net, so that the vertical rod of the car seat back net is in close contact with the upper surface of the vertical pressing block 2021.
[0065] Specifically, the vertical flipping connecting block 2025 uses at least two parallel links to form a parallelogram linkage mechanism, connecting the vertical flipping mounting block 2024 and the vertical pressing block 2023, ensuring that the vertical pressing block 2023 always maintains an inclined posture that matches the vertical rod during the flipping process.
[0066] In this embodiment, after the back net vertical rod is placed on the inclined surface of the vertically downward pressing block 2021, the vertical pressing cylinder 2022 is activated, the telescopic end extends, and the vertically upward pressing block 2023 is driven to rotate smoothly and move diagonally downward through the parallelogram linkage mechanism, so as to press the back net vertical rod tightly on the inclined surface of the vertically downward pressing block 2021, thereby achieving precise positioning and stable clamping of the back net vertical rod.
[0067] Meanwhile, the back net positioning and clamping mechanism 2, the transverse support wire clamping mechanism 3, and the vertical support clamping structure 202 are designed with a stepped height: the transverse support and clamping structure 201 is the tallest, the transverse support wire clamping mechanism 3 is the next tallest, and the vertical support and clamping structure 202 is the shortest. This stepped design allows the car seat back net to present an inclined posture consistent with the actual assembly state after positioning, ensuring that the extended section of the transverse support wire can naturally extend to the processing station of the bending mechanism, thus guaranteeing the accuracy of subsequent bending processing.

[0080] Specifically, the locking push plate 3033 is bolted to the telescopic end of the locking cylinder 3032 to transmit the thrust of the cylinder. An anti-slip rubber pad is affixed to the side that contacts the vertical bar of the back net to increase friction with the bar and prevent damage to the back net fabric.

[0084] Specifically, the locking push pin 3035 uses at least two parallel metal cylinders, one end of which is installed on the locking guide plate 3034 by a threaded connection, and the other end is a smooth cylindrical surface. A positioning hole matching the locking push pin 3035 is provided on one side of the vertical portion of the transverse support wire support groove 302, and the position of the positioning hole is precisely aligned with the axis of the push pin.
[0085] In this embodiment, when the back net vertical rod is placed in the vertical part of the transverse support wire support groove 302, the locking cylinder 3032 is activated, the telescopic end extends, and drives the locking push plate 3033, the locking guide plate 3034 and the locking push column 3035 to move together in the direction of the vertical rod. Finally, the end of the locking push column 3035 extends into the positioning hole of the support groove, pressing the back net vertical rod tightly against the inner wall of the other side of the support groove, thereby locking and fixing the vertical rod, and indirectly fixing the position of the transverse support wire.

[0087] Specifically, the transverse support wire extension section bending mechanism 4 is the actuator for bending and forming the transverse support wire extension section. It can complete multi-step bending actions according to processing requirements, ultimately forming a hook-shaped, snap-fit, or fitted bending structure. This mechanism adopts a modular design. A set of bending mechanisms is installed on the outer side of each transverse support wire clamping mechanism 3, mainly composed of a first bending structure 401 and a second bending structure 402.

Incremental encoders are installed at the output shaft ends of the first and second bending motors. The incremental encoders are used to provide real-time feedback on motor speed and rotation angle, and to verify whether the motor operating status meets the preset parameters, so as to prevent speed fluctuations or angle deviations. Contact photoelectric sensors are embedded in the inner walls of the first limit groove, each support groove and bending groove. The contact photoelectric sensors are used to detect whether there are residual iron filings, dust and other debris in the groove. If there are debris, an alarm is triggered to prevent debris from affecting the fit accuracy of the parts or scratching the steel wire and back mesh.
[0138] Specifically, a comprehensive inspection of the equipment status must be completed before operation to ensure that all components are in normal working condition, thus guaranteeing the smoothness and safety of subsequent operations. First, confirm that the base 1 is stably fixed by the bottom anchor bolts, the top surface is level as required, and there is no looseness or shaking; at the same time, confirm through the feedback signals of the magnetic switches of each cylinder and the encoder of the motor that the back net positioning clamping mechanism 2, the transverse support steel wire clamping mechanism 3, and the transverse support steel wire extension bending mechanism 4 are all in the initial reset state, such as each clamping block is in the loose position, the cylinder extension end is fully retracted, and the bending and rotating plate has returned to the initial angle. Secondly, the core components of the pneumatic system were inspected. Magnetic switches were used to check the smooth and flexible extension and retraction of the horizontal clamping cylinder 2014, vertical clamping cylinder 2022, locking cylinder 3032, and bending push cylinder 4012, ensuring no jamming or air leakage, and that the cylinder pressure values met the preset standards. Encoders and motor controllers were used to check that the first bending motor 40114 and the second bending motor 4029 operated without abnormal noise or vibration, and that the motor speed and angle control were precise. Finally, a cleaning inspection was performed using in-slot contact photoelectric sensors to confirm the absence of debris. If debris was found, it was cleaned with a high-pressure air gun or brush to prevent it from affecting the component fit accuracy or scratching the steel wire and back mesh.
[0139] S2. Place the car seat back net to be processed onto the back net positioning and clamping mechanism 2: embed the crossbar of the back net into the transverse support groove 2012 of the transverse support mounting column 2011, so that the crossbar fits against the inner wall of the transverse support groove 2012; place the two vertical bars of the back net on the inclined surfaces of the vertical downward clamping blocks 2021 of the two symmetrically arranged vertical support clamping structures 202, ensuring that the vertical bars are placed flat; at the same time, adjust the position of the back net so that the wrapping part of the transverse support wire and the back net vertical bar is aligned with the transverse support wire support groove 302 of the transverse support wire clamping mechanism 3.
[0140] Specifically, the car seat back net to be processed is placed on the back net positioning and clamping mechanism 2 according to the preset posture to complete the initial positioning and alignment. The operation requires precise placement in three steps: First, slowly insert the horizontal bar of the back net into the horizontal support groove 2012 of the horizontal support mounting column 2011, ensuring that the horizontal bar is completely flush with the arc-shaped inner wall of the horizontal support groove 2012 and that the two ends of the horizontal bar extend symmetrically to avoid misalignment. Second, place the two vertical bars of the back net on the inclined surfaces of the vertical downward pressing blocks 2021 of the two symmetrically arranged vertical support pressing structures 202, and gently adjust the position of the vertical bars to ensure that they are placed flat along the inclined surfaces without twisting or warping. Third, simultaneously adjust the overall position of the back net so that the connection point between the horizontal support wire and the vertical bar of the back net is precisely aligned with the horizontal support wire support groove 302 of the horizontal support wire clamping mechanism 3, ensuring that the wire at the connection point can fall smoothly into the horizontal part of the support groove and the vertical bar of the back net falls into the vertical part of the support groove, laying the foundation for subsequent precise clamping. Handle with care during placement to avoid damage caused by severe friction between the back net fabric and metal parts.
[0141] S3. Start the transverse pressing cylinder 2014. The telescopic end of the transverse pressing cylinder 2014 drives the transverse upper pressing block 2015 to move. Under the guidance of the transverse flipping connecting block 2017, the transverse upper pressing block 2015 flips smoothly and presses the crossbar of the back net, so that the crossbar is in close contact with the surface of the transverse support mounting column 2011, thus completing the positioning and fixing of the crossbar.
[0142] Meanwhile, a miniature pressure sensor is embedded in the arc-shaped groove on the bottom surface of the horizontal clamping block 2015. The miniature pressure sensor is used to detect the pressure value of the clamping block on the crossbar, ensuring that the pressure meets the preset standard, which ensures rigid fixation and avoids damage to the crossbar or back mesh due to excessive pressure. If the pressure is abnormal, the cylinder is controlled to stop. A displacement sensor is installed on the side of the horizontal support mounting column 2011. The displacement sensor is used to monitor the displacement of the crossbar after clamping, confirming that the crossbar is not loose or offset, and ensuring positioning stability.
[0143] Specifically, the control system activates the transverse clamping cylinder 2014. Under a preset pressure, the cylinder's telescopic end slowly extends, causing the transverse upper clamping block 2015 to begin moving. Guided by the parallelogram linkage mechanism composed of the transverse flipping connecting block 2017, the transverse upper clamping block 2015 smoothly flips along the hinge axis while simultaneously pressing slowly downwards towards the back net crossbar. A miniature pressure sensor monitors the pressure in real time, and a displacement sensor monitors the crossbar's position, ensuring that the arc-shaped groove on the bottom surface of the clamping block precisely fits the crossbar's surface. Ultimately, the crossbar is tightly pressed between the surface of the transverse support mounting column 2011 and the inner wall of the transverse support groove 2012, achieving rigid positioning and fixation of the crossbar. After clamping is complete, the sensor sends a positioning signal, and the system proceeds to the next step.
[0144] S4. Simultaneously start the vertical clamping cylinders 2022 of the two vertical support clamping structures 202. The telescopic end of the vertical clamping cylinder 2022 drives the vertical upward clamping block 2023 to flip and press down with the cooperation of the vertical flipping connecting block 2025, pressing the vertical rod of the back net onto the inclined surface of the vertical downward clamping block 2021, thus completing the overall positioning and clamping of the back net. At this time, the back net is in an inclined state and fits the device due to the stepped height difference between the back net positioning and clamping mechanism 2 and the transverse support steel wire clamping mechanism 3.
[0145] Meanwhile, a pressure sensor is installed on the pressing surface of each of the two vertical pressing blocks 2023. The pressure sensor is used to synchronously monitor the pressing pressure of the two vertical rods to ensure that the pressure on both sides is balanced and to avoid the back net shift caused by unilateral force. An inclination sensor is installed on the edge area of the positioning reference surface of the back net bonding device. The inclination sensor is used to detect whether the tilt angle of the back net is consistent with the actual assembly posture, to ensure that the tilt angle is accurate and to provide a guarantee for the alignment of the bending station of the steel wire extension section.
[0146] Specifically, the control system synchronously activates the vertical clamping cylinders 2022 of the two vertical support clamping structures 202, and the pressure sensor feedback signal ensures that the clamping actions on both sides are synchronized and the pressure is balanced. The telescopic end of the vertical clamping cylinder 2022 drives the vertical upward clamping block 2023, which, with the cooperation of the vertical flipping connecting block 2025, smoothly flips along the hinge axis and presses down obliquely, finally pressing the vertical rod of the back net tightly against the inclined surface of the vertical downward clamping block 2021. The tilt angle of the back net is checked by the tilt sensor, confirming that the back net, under the combined action of the horizontal support clamping structure 201, the vertical support clamping structure 202, and the horizontal support wire clamping mechanism 3, presents an tilt posture consistent with the actual assembly state, completely conforming to the positioning reference surface of the device, and achieving stable positioning and clamping of the entire back net.
[0147] S5. Activate the locking cylinder 3032 of the transverse support wire clamping mechanism 3. The telescopic end of the locking cylinder 3032 pushes the locking push plate 3033 and the locking guide plate 3034 to move, causing at least two parallel locking push pins 3035 to extend into the positioning holes of the transverse support wire support groove 302. At this time, the entanglement between the transverse support wire and the back net vertical rod, and the transverse support wire are both limited to the transverse part of the transverse support wire support groove 302, while the back net vertical rod is limited to the vertical part. The locking push pins 3035 lock and fix the vertical rod, preventing the transverse support wire from shifting during subsequent bending.
[0148] Meanwhile, a contact-type limit switch is installed at the end of the locking push post 3035. The contact-type limit switch is used to detect whether the locking push post is fully inserted into the positioning hole and presses against the vertical rod, confirming that the locking is in place and avoiding loosening due to the push post not being in place. A tension sensor is installed on the inner wall of the transverse part of the transverse support wire support groove 302. The tension sensor is used to monitor the tension value of the transverse support wire, ensuring that the wire is in a stable tension state after locking, without the risk of axial movement or radial swing.
[0149] Specifically, the locking cylinder 3032 of the transverse support wire clamping mechanism 3 is activated. The telescopic end of the locking cylinder 3032 extends under the preset pressure, pushing the locking push plate 3033, the locking guide plate 3034, and the locking push column 3035 together to move towards the vertical rod. When the limit switch at the end of the locking push column is triggered, it is confirmed that the push column is accurately inserted into the positioning hole and presses against the vertical rod; at the same time, the tension sensor feeds back a signal to confirm that the entanglement of the transverse support wire and the back net vertical rod, and the main body of the wire are firmly fixed in the support groove, and the wire tension is stable. The rigid fixation of the transverse support wire is indirectly achieved by fixing the vertical rod, fundamentally avoiding wire displacement during subsequent bending.
[0150] S6. Confirm that the extension section of the transverse support steel wire passes through the first gap formed by the first guide block 40110 and the first limiting block 40111, and corresponds to the first bending groove 40113 of the first bending block 40112.
[0151] Meanwhile, a laser photoelectric sensor is installed at both the entrance and exit of the first gap. The laser photoelectric sensor is used to detect whether the extension section of the steel wire passes through the first gap smoothly without deviation or skew, ensuring that the direction of the steel wire is consistent with the bending trajectory. A capacitive proximity sensor is installed on the inner wall of the first bending groove 40113. The capacitive proximity sensor is used to detect whether the steel wire is completely in contact with the semi-circular inner wall of the bending groove, ensuring that the bending force can be evenly applied to the steel wire and preventing the steel wire from detaching from the groove during the bending process.
[0152] Specifically, the position of the extended section of the transverse support wire is confirmed by a combination of laser photoelectric sensors and capacitive proximity sensors: ensuring that the wire passes smoothly through the first gap, with its surface tightly fitted to the inner wall of the gap without any offset; simultaneously confirming that the wire corresponds to and fits the first bending groove 40113, with the inner wall of the bending groove completely fitted to the wire. If the sensor detects an alignment deviation, an alarm is immediately triggered, the system controls all mechanisms to reset, and the back net position is readjusted until accurate alignment is achieved.
[0153] S7. Start the first bending motor 40114. The first bending motor 40114 drives the first drive gear 40115 to rotate. Through the meshing transmission between the first drive gear 40115 and the first driven gear 4018 on the fan-shaped bending rotating plate 4017, the fan-shaped bending rotating plate 4017 is driven to rotate upward around the first bending mounting shaft 4016.
[0154] Meanwhile, a vision sensor is installed next to the meshing area of the first drive gear 40115 and the first driven gear 4018. The vision sensor is used to monitor the meshing state of the gears in real time, detect abnormalities such as tooth jamming and tooth skipping in a timely manner, and avoid bending deviation caused by transmission failure. An angle sensor is installed on the side of the fan-shaped bending rotating plate 4017. The angle sensor is used to accurately feed back the rotation angle of the fan-shaped bending rotating plate, ensuring that the rotation speed and angle meet the preset parameters, and forming a double verification with the motor encoder.
[0155] Specifically, the control system starts the first bending motor 40114, which runs smoothly at a preset speed, driving the first drive gear 40115 to rotate synchronously. A vision sensor monitors the gear meshing status in real time to ensure that there is no jamming or skipping of gears; the angle sensor works in conjunction with the motor encoder to provide feedback on the angle and speed at which the fan-shaped bending rotating plate 4017 rotates smoothly upward around the first bending mounting shaft 4016, ensuring that the rotation process is uniform and stable.
[0156] S8. The fan-shaped bending rotating plate 4017 drives the first bending block 40112 to rotate upward synchronously. Under the constraint of the first bending groove 40113, the extended section of the transverse support steel wire bends upward along the arc edge of the first guide block 40110. When the edge of the fan-shaped bending rotating plate 4017 enters the first limiting groove 40117 of the first limiting post 40116, the first bending motor 40114 stops running, maintains the current state, and completes the forming of the first bending part.
[0157] Meanwhile, a Hall sensor is installed on the inner wall of the first limiting groove 40117. The Hall sensor is used to detect whether the fan-shaped bending rotating plate has fully entered the limiting groove and reached the preset position, and accurately triggers the motor to stop, ensuring that the angle of the first bending part meets the design requirements. A laser contour sensor is installed next to the forming area of the first bending part. The laser contour sensor is used to scan the contour shape of the first bending part and verify whether the bending arc is regular and free from defects such as deformation and cracks.
[0158] Specifically, as the fan-shaped bending rotating plate 4017 rotates upward, it drives the first bending block 40112 to move upward synchronously. Under the constraint and guidance of the first bending groove, the extended section of the steel wire slowly bends upward along the arc edge of the first guide block. When the Hall sensor detects that the edge of the rotating plate has entered the limiting groove and is in place, it controls the first bending motor 40114 to stop running and maintains the posture for a short period of pressure holding; at the same time, the laser contour sensor scans the contour of the bent part to confirm that the bending arc is precisely controlled by the radius of the arc surface of the guide block, the shape is stable, and the angle deviation caused by elastic rebound is avoided, thus completing the forming of the first bent part.
[0159] S9. After confirming the formation of the first bend, the subsequent part of the transverse support wire extension enters the second gap formed by the second bending groove 4028 of the second guide block 4026 and the second bending block 4027.
[0160] Meanwhile, an infrared photoelectric sensor is installed at the entrance of the second gap. The infrared photoelectric sensor is used to detect whether the subsequent part of the steel wire extension section enters the second gap smoothly, ensuring accurate alignment with the second bending groove. A displacement sensor is installed on the side of the second bending block 4027. The displacement sensor is used to monitor the position of the second bending block, ensuring that its distance from the steel wire meets the preset bending requirements, and avoiding alignment deviation from affecting the forming quality of the second bending part.
[0161] Specifically, after the first bend is formed, an infrared photoelectric sensor confirms that the subsequent part of the extended steel wire has naturally entered the second gap formed by the second guide block 4026 and the second bending groove 4028. A displacement sensor verifies the position of the second bending block to ensure that the steel wire is completely in contact with the inner wall of the second gap and the inner wall of the bending groove, without any offset or loosening. If there is a misalignment, precise alignment is achieved by adjusting the position of the second bend structure or fine-tuning the posture of the steel wire.
[0162] S10. Start the second bending motor 4029. The second bending motor 4029 drives the second drive gear 40210 to rotate. Through the meshing transmission between the second drive gear 40210 and the second driven gear 4025 on the second bending rotating plate 4024, the second bending rotating plate 4024 is driven to rotate downward around the second bending mounting shaft 4023.
[0163] Meanwhile, a vibration sensor is installed in the meshing area of the second drive gear 40210 and the second driven gear 4025. The vibration sensor is used to monitor the vibration value during the gear transmission process, detect abnormal vibration in time, and avoid bending deviation caused by transmission instability. A torque sensor is installed at the end of the second bending mounting shaft 4023. The torque sensor is used to detect the output torque of the motor to ensure that the torque matches the bending requirements of the steel wire, and avoid the steel wire breaking due to excessive torque or insufficient bending due to insufficient torque.
[0164] Specifically, the second bending motor 4029 is started, and the motor runs smoothly at the preset speed, driving the second drive gear 40210 to rotate synchronously. The vibration sensor monitors the transmission vibration in real time, and the torque sensor provides feedback on the output torque to ensure smooth gear transmission, that the rotation speed is coordinated with the first bending stage, and that the torque meets the requirements, thus avoiding stress concentration at the wire bending point due to sudden speed changes or abnormal torque.
[0165] S11. The second bending rotating plate 4024 drives the second bending block 4027 to move downward synchronously. Under the constraint of the second bending groove 4028, the extended section of the transverse support steel wire bends downward along the arc edge of the second guide block 4026 to form the second bending part. According to the design requirements, by controlling the running angle of the second bending motor 4029, the two bending structures are made to form a hook-shaped, snap-fit, or fit-fitting target bending structure, and then the second bending motor 4029 is stopped. Meanwhile, an angle sensor is installed on the side of the second bending rotating plate 4024. The angle sensor is used to precisely control the rotation angle of the second bending rotating plate to ensure that the angle of the second bending part is accurate and works with the first bending part to form a preset bending structure. A 3D vision sensor is installed on the outside of the target bending structure. The 3D vision sensor is used to scan the three-dimensional shape of the overall bending structure to verify whether it meets the design requirements such as hook shape and snap-fit shape, and at the same time detect whether there are defects such as micro-cracks and deformation at the bending point.
[0166] Specifically, when the second bending rotating plate 4024 rotates downwards, it drives the second bending block 4027 to move downwards synchronously. Under the constraint of the second bending groove, the extended section of the steel wire slowly bends downwards along the arc edge of the second guide block. A high-precision angle sensor provides feedback on the rotation angle, and the control system precisely controls the operating angle of the second bending motor 4029, so that the first and second bending parts work together to form the target bending structure that meets the design requirements. After the motor stops, the overall structure is scanned by a 3D vision sensor to confirm that the shape is qualified and without defects, thus completing the forming of the second bending part.
[0167] S12. Sequentially control the second bending motor 4029 and the first bending motor 40114 to reverse, driving the second bending rotating plate 4024 and the fan-shaped bending rotating plate 4017 back to their initial positions; start the bending push cylinder 4012, driving the bending push slide rail 4013 and each bending component to reset.
[0168] Meanwhile, using the motor encoder and cylinder magnetic switch from S1, a position sensor is installed at the end of the bending push slide rail 4013. The position sensor is used to detect whether the slide rail and bending components have been fully reset to the initial feed position, ensuring that the reset is in place and reserving sufficient space for the next processing; the motor encoder and cylinder magnetic switch work together to verify that each mechanism has returned to its initial posture and there is no component jamming.
[0169] Specifically, after bending is completed, the control system sequentially controls the second and first bending motors to reverse, and the motor encoder confirms that the second bending rotating plate 4024 and the fan-shaped bending rotating plate 4017 have returned to their initial positions; the bending push cylinder 4012 is started, and the slide rail end position sensor and cylinder magnetic switch feedback signal confirm that the slide rail and each bending component have moved backward in the direction away from the steel wire and have been completely reset to the initial feed position.
[0170] S13, sequentially control the locking cylinder 3032, vertical pressing cylinder 2022, and horizontal pressing cylinder 2014 to reset, the locking push column 3035 to exit the positioning hole, and the vertical pressing block 2023 and the horizontal pressing block 2015 to release the pressing on the back net.
[0171] Meanwhile, the magnetic switches for each cylinder and the travel switches for the locking push pins are reused, and pressure release sensors are installed in the contact areas between each clamping block and the back mesh. The pressure release sensors are used to detect whether the pressure of the clamping block on the back mesh has been completely released, ensuring that there is no residual pressure on the back mesh after unlocking, and avoiding deformation or damage to the back mesh when removing the part; the magnetic switches and travel switches confirm that each cylinder and push pin has been fully reset and unlocked.
[0172] Specifically, the cylinders are reset sequentially, following the order of locking mechanism first, then vertical clamping, and finally horizontal clamping. The push pin is confirmed to have exited the positioning hole by the locking push pin travel switch; the vertical clamping block 2023 and the horizontal clamping block 2015 are confirmed to be completely released from the back net with no residual pressure by the pressure release sensor; and the cylinder magnetic switch is confirmed to have completely retracted the telescopic ends of each cylinder, indicating that all constraints have been released and the part can be removed.
[0173] S14. Remove the bent car seat back net from the device to complete a single bending operation; if continuous processing is required, repeat S2-S13.
[0174] Meanwhile, a diffuse reflection photoelectric sensor is installed in the part-removal area of the device. The diffuse reflection photoelectric sensor is used to detect whether the back net has been successfully removed. If the removal is successful, the system is triggered to prepare for the next processing cycle; if the removal is unsuccessful, an alarm is issued to avoid repeated feeding that could cause damage to the parts due to collision.
[0175] Specifically, the operator uses a special tool to remove the back mesh. Once the diffuse reflection photoelectric sensor detects that the removal is complete, the system automatically resets to standby mode. After removal, the forming quality of the bent structure is checked to confirm there are no cracks, deformations, angle deviations, or other issues, thus completing a single bending operation. If continuous processing is required, the S2-S13 process is repeated. Once the operation is complete, the system shuts off the power and air supply and prompts for equipment cleaning and maintenance.
[0176] In this embodiment, by positioning the horizontal and vertical bars of the back net in stages and precisely aligning the point where the steel wire is wrapped with the vertical bar with the support groove, combined with the cylinder-driven clamping structure and the rigid fixation of the locking push column, axial movement and radial swaying of the back net and steel wire during the bending process are avoided from the source, ensuring the uniformity of the bending reference. A motor-driven gear transmission is used to drive the bending rotating plate, and with the mechanical limiting effect of the limiting groove, the bending angle of the first and second bending parts can be precisely controlled. By adjusting the motor operating parameters, various target bending structures such as hooks and snaps can be flexibly formed to meet the design requirements of different seat back nets, effectively avoiding the angle deviation problem of manual bending. During the bending process, the steel wire always adheres to the arc-shaped inner wall of the bending groove and bends smoothly along the arc edge of the guide block, avoiding defects such as steel wire cracks and deformation caused by stress concentration, ensuring the mechanical performance and appearance consistency of the bent structure.
[0177] The foregoing detailed one embodiment of the present invention, but this is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. All equivalent variations and modifications made within the scope of the present invention should still fall within the patent coverage of the present invention.

10. A bending method, characterized in that, This method is applicable to the bending forming apparatus according to any one of claims 1-9, and the method includes: S1. Confirm that the base (1) is stable and fixed, and that the back net positioning clamping mechanism (2), the transverse support wire clamping mechanism (3), and the transverse support wire extension bending mechanism (4) are all in the initial reset state; check that the extension and retraction states of the transverse pressing cylinder (2014), the vertical pressing cylinder (2022), the locking cylinder (3032), and the bending pushing cylinder (4012) are normal, and that the first bending motor (40114) and the second bending motor (4029) are operating without abnormalities; confirm that there are no foreign objects in the first limit groove (40117), each support groove, and the bending groove to ensure smooth subsequent operations; S2. Place the car seat back net to be processed on the back net positioning and clamping mechanism (2): embed the crossbar of the back net into the transverse support groove (2012) of the transverse support mounting column (2011) so that the crossbar fits against the inner wall of the transverse support groove (2012); place the two vertical bars of the back net on the inclined surface of the vertical downward clamping block (2021) of the two symmetrically arranged vertical support clamping structures (202) to ensure that the vertical bars are placed flat; at the same time, adjust the position of the back net so that the wrapping part of the transverse support wire and the back net vertical bar is aligned with the transverse support wire support groove (302) of the transverse support wire clamping mechanism (3). S3. Start the transverse pressing cylinder (2014). The telescopic end of the transverse pressing cylinder (2014) drives the transverse upper pressing block (2015) to move. Under the guidance of the transverse flipping connecting block (2017), the transverse upper pressing block (2015) flips smoothly and presses the crossbar of the back net, so that the crossbar is in close contact with the surface of the transverse support mounting column (2011), and the positioning and fixing of the crossbar is completed. S4. Simultaneously start the vertical clamping cylinders (2022) of the two vertical support clamping structures (202). The telescopic end of the vertical clamping cylinder (2022) drives the vertical upward clamping block (2023), which flips and presses down with the cooperation of the vertical flipping connecting block (2025), pressing the vertical rod of the back net onto the inclined surface of the vertical downward clamping block (2021), thus completing the overall positioning and clamping of the back net. At this time, the back net is in an inclined state and fits the device due to the stepped height difference between the back net positioning and clamping mechanism (2) and the transverse support steel wire clamping mechanism (3). S5. Start the locking cylinder (3032) of the transverse support wire clamping mechanism (3). The telescopic end of the locking cylinder (3032) pushes the locking push plate (3033) and the locking guide plate (3034) to move, driving at least two parallel locking push pins (3035) to extend into the positioning holes of the transverse support wire support groove (302). At this time, the entanglement of the transverse support wire and the back net vertical rod, and the transverse support wire are all limited to the transverse part of the transverse support wire support groove (302), and the back net vertical rod is limited to the vertical part. The locking push pin (3035) locks and fixes the vertical rod to prevent the transverse support wire from shifting during the subsequent bending process. S6. Confirm that the extension of the transverse support steel wire passes through the first gap formed by the first guide block (40110) and the first limiting block (40111), and corresponds to the first bending groove (40113) of the first bending block (40112). S7. Start the first bending motor (40114). The first bending motor (40114) drives the first drive gear (40115) to rotate. Through the meshing transmission between the first drive gear (40115) and the first driven gear (4018) on the fan-shaped bending rotating plate (4017), the fan-shaped bending rotating plate (4017) is driven to rotate upward around the first bending mounting shaft (4016). S8. The fan-shaped bending rotating plate (4017) drives the first bending block (40112) to rotate upward synchronously. Under the constraint of the first bending groove (40113), the extended section of the transverse support steel wire bends upward along the arc edge of the first guide block (40110). When the edge of the fan-shaped bending rotating plate (4017) enters the first limiting groove (40117) of the first limiting post (40116), the first bending motor (40114) stops running, maintains the current state, and completes the forming of the first bending part. S9. After confirming the formation of the first bend, the subsequent part of the transverse support wire extension enters the second gap formed by the second bending groove (4028) of the second guide block (4026) and the second bending block (4027); S10. Start the second bending motor (4029). The second bending motor (4029) drives the second drive gear (40210) to rotate. Through the meshing transmission between the second drive gear (40210) and the second driven gear (4025) on the second bending rotating plate (4024), the second bending rotating plate (4024) is driven to rotate downward around the second bending mounting shaft (4023). S11. The second bending rotating plate (4024) drives the second bending block (4027) to move downward synchronously. Under the constraint of the second bending groove (4028), the extended section of the transverse support steel wire bends downward along the arc edge of the second guide block (4026) to form the second bending part. According to the design requirements, by controlling the running angle of the second bending motor (4029), the two bending structures are made to form a hook-shaped, snap-fit or fit-fitting target bending structure, and then the second bending motor (4029) is stopped. S12. Sequentially control the second bending motor (4029) and the first bending motor (40114) to reverse, driving the second bending rotating plate (4024) and the fan-shaped bending rotating plate (4017) back to their initial positions; start the bending push cylinder (4012), driving the bending push slide rail (4013) and each bending component to reset; S13. Sequentially control the locking cylinder (3032), vertical pressing cylinder (2022), and horizontal pressing cylinder (2014) to reset, the locking push column (3035) to exit the positioning hole, and the vertical pressing block (2023) and horizontal pressing block (2015) to release the pressing on the back net. S14. Remove the bent car seat back net from the device to complete a single bending operation; if continuous processing is required, repeat S2-S13.
