Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of tapping machine technology, specifically to an integrated tapping machine. Background Technology
[0002] Integrated fasteners, widely used in construction, fire protection, and ceiling systems, are primarily composed of a core, sleeve, metal sheet (usually round or square), and cap. The metal sheet, as the core load-bearing and connecting component, has a threaded hole on its surface or center, which is crucial for reliable connection between the integrated fastener and hangers, joists, or other structural members. The machining precision, thread quality, and processing efficiency of the metal sheet's threaded hole directly determine the integrated fastener's performance, ease of installation, and market competitiveness.
[0003] Currently, the tapping of one-piece nail plates in the industry mainly relies on traditional general-purpose tapping equipment or semi-automatic tooling. However, the one-piece nail plates are usually thin sheet metal parts with various sizes and specifications (such as M6, M8, M10, etc., with different diameters and thicknesses). Traditional equipment fixtures are mostly general-purpose and lack dedicated positioning mechanisms for the structural characteristics of one-piece nail plates. This causes the plate to easily shift, loosen, or tilt during the tapping process, making it difficult to guarantee the coaxiality of the machined threaded hole with the plate plane and the nail shank axis. Eccentricity or misalignment of the threaded hole will seriously affect the smoothness of subsequent screw or connector installation, and may even cause insufficient connection strength, leaving safety hazards. Summary of the Invention

[0020] like Figures 1-8 As shown, an integrated nail tapping machine according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a frame 1, on which a tapping head 2 is mounted, a worktable 3, a support base 4, a positioning groove 8, a first moving mechanism, and a height positioning mechanism. The worktable 3 is fixedly mounted on the frame 1, and the support base 4 is slidably mounted on the top side wall of the worktable 3. A support groove 5 is provided on the support base 4, and a support opening 6 is provided at the bottom of the support groove 5. An electric slide 7 is mounted on the top side wall of the worktable 3, and the output end of the electric slide 7 is fixedly connected to the support base 4. Multiple positioning grooves 8 are provided at the bottom of the support groove 5 around the support opening 6. Positioning seats 9 are slidably mounted in the positioning grooves 8. The first moving mechanism is located between the positioning seats 9 and the support base 4 and is used to drive the multiple positioning seats 9 to move synchronously in the positioning grooves 8, thereby achieving horizontal positioning of the integrated nail. The height positioning mechanism is located on the positioning seats 9 and is used to position the integrated nail in the height direction.
[0021] Reference Figures 1-7The first moving mechanism includes a first cavity 10, an adjusting ring 11, an adjusting rod 13, and a first rotating mechanism. The support base 4 has an annular first cavity 10 that communicates with the positioning groove 8. The adjusting ring 11 is rotatably disposed within the first cavity 10. A rotating shaft 12 is rotatably disposed on the top sidewall of the adjusting ring 11, located on one side of the positioning base 9. The adjusting rod 13 is fixedly disposed on the sidewall of the rotating shaft 12, with one end of the adjusting rod 13 away from the rotating shaft 12 hinged to the sidewall of the adjacent positioning base 9. The first rotating mechanism is disposed between the adjusting ring 11 and the support base 4 to drive the adjusting ring 11 to rotate. The first rotating mechanism includes a first toothed ring 14, a moving block 15, and a first moving assembly. The first toothed ring 14 is fixedly disposed on the outer wall of the adjusting ring 11. The moving block 15 is slidably disposed within the first cavity 10. A first rack is fixedly disposed on the sidewall of the moving block 15, meshing with the first toothed ring 14. The first moving assembly is disposed between the moving block 15 and the support base 4 to drive the moving block 15 to rotate. The first moving component, which moves within a cavity 10, includes a first threaded rod 16 and a first handwheel 17. The first threaded rod 16 is rotatably mounted within the first cavity 10 and passes through the moving block 15 via a threaded connection. The first handwheel 17 is rotatably mounted on the side wall of the support base 4 and is fixedly connected to the first threaded rod 16. Specifically, after the operator places the integral nail upside down into the support groove 5, the iron sheet can be made to adhere to the bottom of the support groove 5. Then, the rotation of the first handwheel 17 can drive the first threaded rod 16 to rotate. At the same time, the rotation of the first threaded rod 16 can drive the moving block 15 and the first rack to move. Thus, the meshing of the first rack with the first toothed ring 14 can drive the adjusting ring 11 to rotate. During the rotation of the adjusting ring 11, the rotating shaft 12 and the adjusting rod 13 can drive multiple positioning seats 9 to move synchronously. This facilitates the clamping and fixing of iron sheets of different specifications by clamping the side wall of the iron sheet through the positioning seats 9, thereby improving the clamping effect.
[0022] Reference Figures 4-8The height positioning mechanism includes a positioning groove 8, a positioning post 18, and a second moving mechanism. The positioning groove 8 is formed on the bottom side wall of the positioning seat 9, and a positioning opening is formed on the side wall of the positioning groove 8. The positioning post 18 is slidably disposed in the positioning groove 8, and a positioning block 19 is fixedly disposed on the side wall of the positioning post 18. The positioning block 19 extends out of the positioning seat 9 through the positioning opening. The second moving mechanism is disposed between the positioning post 18 and the support seat 4, and is used to drive multiple positioning posts 18 to move synchronously. Rubber pads are fixedly disposed on the side walls of the positioning seat 9 and the positioning block 19. The second moving mechanism includes a second cavity 20, a moving ring 21, a second threaded rod 22, and a first rotating mechanism. An annular second cavity 20 is formed in the support seat 4, and multiple connection ports are formed between the second cavity 20 and the first cavity 10. The moving ring 21 is slidably disposed in the second cavity 20, and the bottom end of the positioning post 18 extends through the connection port and... The second threaded rod 22 is slidably connected to the top side wall of the moving ring 21 and is rotatably disposed in the second cavity 20. The second threaded rod 22 passes through the moving ring 21 through a threaded engagement. The first rotating mechanism is disposed between the support base 4 and the second threaded rod 22 and is used to drive the second threaded rod 22 to rotate. A plurality of guide rods 23 are fixedly disposed in the second cavity 20. The guide rods 23 pass through the moving ring 21 and are slidably connected to the moving ring 21. Specifically, the operation of the first rotating mechanism can drive the second threaded rod 22 to rotate, and then drive the moving ring 21 to move in the height direction through the threaded engagement between the second threaded rod 22 and the moving ring 21. The movement of the moving ring 21 can drive the positioning column 18 and the positioning block 19 to move in the height direction. Thus, the positioning block 19 can be used to cooperate with the support groove 5 to achieve the positioning and clamping of the iron sheet, thereby facilitating further improvement of the clamping effect.
[0023] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The first rotating mechanism includes a third cavity 24, a second bevel gear 26, and a driving mechanism. The support base 4 has a third cavity 24. A first bevel gear 25 is rotatably mounted on the inner bottom wall of the third cavity 24. The first bevel gear 25 is fixedly connected to a second threaded rod 22. The second bevel gear 26 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the third cavity 24 and meshes with the first bevel gear 25. The driving mechanism is mounted on the support base 4 and is used to drive the second bevel gear 26 to rotate. The driving mechanism includes a second handwheel 27 and a driving rod. The second handwheel 27 is rotatably mounted on the side wall of the support base 4. The driving rod is fixedly mounted on the second handwheel 27. The end of the driving rod away from the second handwheel 27 passes through the side wall of the support base 4 and is fixedly connected to the second bevel gear 26. Specifically, the rotation of the second handwheel 27 can drive the second bevel gear 26 to rotate. At the same time, the meshing of the second bevel gear 26 with the first bevel gear 25 drives the first bevel gear 25 and the second threaded rod 22 to rotate.
[0024] In this embodiment, during use, after the operator places the integrated nail upside down into the support groove 5, the iron sheet can be made to adhere to the bottom of the support groove 5. Then, the rotation of the first handwheel 17 can drive the first threaded rod 16 to rotate. At the same time, the rotation of the first threaded rod 16 can drive the moving block 15 and the first rack to move. Thus, the engagement of the first rack with the first toothed ring 14 can drive the adjusting ring 11 to rotate. During the rotation of the adjusting ring 11, the rotating shaft 12 and the adjusting rod 13 can drive multiple positioning seats 9 to move synchronously. This facilitates the clamping and fixing of iron sheets of different specifications by clamping the side wall of the iron sheet through the positioning seats 9, thereby improving the clamping effect. Then, the operator rotates the second handwheel 27. The rotation of the second handwheel 27 can drive the moving block 15 and the first rack to move. The second bevel gear 26 rotates, and the meshing of the second bevel gear 26 with the first bevel gear 25 drives the first bevel gear 25 and the second threaded rod 22 to rotate. Then, the threaded engagement of the second threaded rod 22 with the moving ring 21 drives the moving ring 21 to move in the height direction. The movement of the moving ring 21 can drive the positioning pin 18 and the positioning block 19 to move in the height direction. Thus, the positioning block 19 and the support groove 5 can be used to position and clamp the iron sheet, thereby facilitating further improvement of the clamping effect. After the iron sheet is clamped, the operator can control the tapping head 2 to work, so that the tapping head 2 can be used to open threaded holes on the surface of the iron sheet. At the same time, the position of the opening hole can be adjusted by the operation of the electric slide table 7.
