Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to automotive aluminum profile processing equipment technology, and more specifically, to a stamping and forming equipment for aluminum profiles of battery tray front beams. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the new energy vehicle industry, lightweighting has become one of the key technological paths to improve vehicle range. As a core safety structural component supporting the power battery pack, the weight and strength of the battery tray directly affect the energy efficiency and safety performance of the entire vehicle. Aluminum alloy, with its high specific strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and good formability, has become the preferred material for battery tray structural components. Among them, the front beam of the battery tray is a key load-bearing component in the tray frame that bears the frontal collision load and connects and positions the battery modules; its profile structure requires extremely high precision, strength, and consistency.

[0003] Currently, the manufacturing of aluminum profiles for battery tray front beams mainly relies on traditional stamping processes and equipment. In existing technologies, typical aluminum profile stamping equipment usually consists of a press, a general-purpose die, and a feeding mechanism. In actual production, it faces the following prominent technical problems: The instantaneous contact between the high-temperature blank and the room-temperature die results in severe heat loss, causing a sharp fluctuation in the die surface temperature. This not only worsens the fluidity of the blank-die contact area, leading to forming defects, but also causes periodic thermal shocks to the die, accelerating thermal fatigue wear and reducing die life and dimensional stability. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the problem of lack of real-time temperature control during the forming process, the present invention provides a stamping forming equipment for aluminum profiles of battery tray front beams, the specific technical solution of which is as follows:

[0005] A stamping and forming equipment for aluminum profiles of a battery tray front beam includes a stamping mechanism and a shearing and grinding mechanism. The stamping mechanism includes a stamping cabinet and a forming component disposed within the stamping cabinet. The forming component includes a die placement base, a temperature-controlled pressure base, and a stamping shaft. The die placement base has a groove for placing the die. The bottom of the stamping shaft is fixed on the die placement base. The temperature-controlled pressure base is slidably sleeved on the stamping shaft. The forming component also has a heat exchanger mounted on the temperature-controlled pressure base and a control module for controlling the heat exchanger. The shearing and grinding mechanism includes a shearing device and two grinding devices disposed on both sides of the shearing device.

[0006] The aforementioned aluminum profile stamping equipment for the battery tray front beam achieves active and precise control of the working temperature of the mold (and the profile in contact with the mold) through a heat exchanger and control module installed on the temperature-controlled pressure seat. This allows the process to be carried out at the optimal isothermal or gradient temperature, which significantly improves the material's plasticity and reduces the rheological stress, thereby enabling the forming of complex cross-sections with less forming force. It also fundamentally suppresses warping and torsional deformation caused by material springback and uneven stress, ensuring that the dimensional accuracy (such as straightness and cross-sectional tolerance) of the long front beam profile meets the stringent assembly requirements throughout its entire length. This is achieved by directly integrating the shearing and grinding mechanism with the stamping mechanism into a single machine. After stamping, the profile can be immediately sheared to a fixed length and deburred on the same workstation or continuous production line, completely eliminating the time and accuracy loss caused by transfer and secondary positioning between multiple machines in traditional processes. This significantly shortens the production cycle and improves production efficiency. In addition, the control module is not only used to control temperature, but its architecture also provides the hardware foundation for integrating more sensors (such as pressure and displacement) and realizing online monitoring, feedback and adaptive adjustment of process parameters (temperature-pressure-speed). This enables the production process to shift from relying on experience to data-driven processes, improves process stability and traceability, and lays the foundation for intelligent manufacturing.

[0007] Furthermore, the temperature-controlled pressure seat includes a sleeve, a connecting structure, an inclined structure, a seat shell, and a pressure plate. The sleeve is slidably sleeved on the stamping shaft. The control module is located on the sleeve. One end of the connecting structure is fixedly connected to the sleeve, and the other end of the connecting structure is rotatably connected to the inclined structure. The inclined structure is bolted to the top of the seat shell. The heat exchanger is located on the seat shell, and the pressure plate is laid at the bottom of the seat shell.

[0008] Furthermore, the connecting structure includes a connecting rod and a first locking plate. One end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the sleeve, and the other end of the connecting rod is provided with the first locking plate. The tilting structure includes a second locking plate, an adjusting handle, a telescopic shaft, and a fixing member threaded onto the top of the housing. The second locking plate and the first locking plate are fixedly connected by bolts. The adjusting handle is rotatably connected to the second locking plate and the top of the telescopic shaft, respectively. The bottom of the telescopic shaft is fixed to the fixing member.

[0009] Further, the shearing device includes a shearing table, a positioning component, a moving component, and a shearing assembly. Multiple auxiliary translation wheels are spaced apart on the shearing table. The positioning component includes an upper positioning member, a lower support member, and two side limiting members. The upper positioning member and the two side limiting members are slidably mounted on the shearing table. The lower support member is detachably fixed on the shearing table. A positioning space is formed between the upper positioning member and the lower support member. The two side limiting members are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the positioning space. The moving component includes a track beam, a sliding member, a lifting member, and a first adsorption member for adsorbing profiles. The track beam is mounted on the shearing table, the sliding member is slidably mounted on the track beam, the lifting member is mounted on the sliding member and can rise and fall relative to the shearing table, and the adsorption member is fixed to the bottom of the lifting member. Multiple suction cups are spaced apart on the first adsorption member. The shearing assembly includes a shearing robotic arm located on one side of the shearing table and a plasma shearing member mounted on the shearing robotic arm.

[0010] Furthermore, the edge grinding device includes an edge grinding table, a support, an edge grinding wheel, and two edge grinding robotic arms. The support and the two edge grinding robotic arms are all fixed on the edge grinding table. A swing arm is oscillating on the support. The edge grinding wheel is rotatably mounted on the swing arm. An edge grinding head is provided on the edge grinding robotic arm. An edge grinding cloth is laid on the outer surface of the edge grinding head.

[0011] Furthermore, the aluminum profile stamping and forming equipment for the front beam of the battery tray also includes a transfer mechanism. The transfer mechanism includes a first discharge device, a cooling device, a second discharge device, and a transfer device arranged in sequence. The first discharge device is provided with a plurality of first conveyor belts. The cooling device includes a cooling cabinet and a cooling conveyor belt disposed inside the cooling cabinet. A cooling fan is installed on the cooling cabinet above the cooling conveyor belt. The second discharge device is provided with a plurality of conveying rollers. The plurality of conveying rollers form a first conveying space. The cooling conveyor belt connects the first conveyor belt and the first conveying space.

[0012] Furthermore, the transfer device includes a swing-mounted second adsorption member and an inclined track platform. The second adsorption member is used to transfer the profile in the conveying space to the track platform. The track platform is provided with a slide rail and a support rail that slide up and down respectively. A second conveying space is formed between the slide rail and the support rail. The slide rail is provided with a plurality of rollers that abut against the profile. The support rail is provided with a plurality of support plates for supporting the profile.

[0013] Furthermore, the aluminum profile stamping and forming equipment for the front beam of the battery tray also includes a transfer robotic arm, which is equipped with a third adsorption component. The transfer robotic arm is used to transfer the profile from the mold to the shearing table or to transfer the profile from the shearing table to the conveyor belt.

[0014] Furthermore, the aluminum profile stamping forming equipment for the front beam of the battery tray also includes a bending mechanism comprising a bending cabinet, a lower pressure seat, and a processing platform. The bending cabinet is equipped with a lifting rail, and the lower pressure seat is slidably mounted on the lifting rail.

[0022] In this invention, "first" and "second" do not represent a specific quantity or order, but are merely used to distinguish names.

[0023] like Figures 1-4 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a stamping and forming equipment for aluminum profiles of a battery tray front beam, including a stamping mechanism 1 and a shearing and grinding mechanism 2. The stamping mechanism 1 includes a stamping cabinet 11 and a forming assembly disposed within the stamping cabinet 11. The forming assembly includes a mold placement seat 12, a temperature-controlled pressure seat 13, and a stamping shaft 14. The mold placement seat 12 has a groove for placing the mold. The bottom of the stamping shaft 14 is fixed on the mold placement seat 12. The temperature-controlled pressure seat 13 is slidably sleeved on the stamping shaft 14. The forming assembly is also provided with a heat exchanger 131 installed on the temperature-controlled pressure seat 13 and a control module 15 for controlling the heat exchanger 131. The shearing and grinding mechanism 2 includes a shearing device and two grinding devices disposed on both sides of the shearing device.

[0024] The aforementioned aluminum profile stamping forming equipment for the front beam of the battery tray achieves active and precise control of the working temperature of the mold (and the profile in contact with the mold) through the heat exchanger 131 and control module 15 installed on the temperature-controlled pressure base 13. This allows the process to be carried out at the optimal isothermal or gradient temperature, which greatly improves the plasticity of the material and significantly reduces the rheological stress, thereby enabling the forming of complex cross-sections with less forming force. It also fundamentally suppresses warping and torsional deformation caused by material springback and uneven stress, ensuring that the dimensional accuracy (such as straightness and cross-sectional tolerance) of the long front beam profile meets the stringent assembly requirements throughout its entire length. This is achieved by directly integrating the shearing and grinding mechanism 2 and the stamping mechanism 1 into one device. After stamping, the profile can be immediately sheared to a fixed length and deburred on the same workstation or continuous flow line, completely eliminating the time and accuracy loss caused by transfer and secondary positioning between multiple machines in traditional processes, significantly shortening the production cycle and improving production efficiency. In addition, the control module 15 is not only used to control temperature, but its architecture also provides the hardware foundation for integrating more sensors (such as pressure and displacement) and realizing online monitoring, feedback and adaptive adjustment of process parameters (temperature-pressure-speed), enabling the production process to shift from relying on experience to data-driven, improving process stability and traceability, and laying the foundation for intelligent manufacturing.

[0025] Specifically, the groove on the mold base 12 is not shown in the illustration. The groove is formed according to the shape of the mold.

[0026] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in one embodiment, the temperature-controlled pressure seat 13 includes a sleeve 132, a connecting structure 133, an inclined structure 134, a seat shell 135, and a pressure plate 136. The sleeve 132 is slidably sleeved on the stamping shaft 14, and the control module 15 is disposed on the sleeve 132. One end of the connecting structure 133 is fixedly connected to the sleeve 132, and the other end of the connecting structure 133 is rotatably connected to the inclined structure 134. The inclined structure 134 is bolted to the top of the seat shell 135, and the heat exchanger 131 is disposed on the seat shell 135. The pressure plate 136 is laid on the bottom of the seat shell 135. Traditional rigid pressure plates 136 tend to form line or point contacts when in contact with slightly uneven molds or blanks, resulting in uneven pressure and heat distribution. This is a major cause of products being locally too thin, incompletely filled, or experiencing stress concentration. The aforementioned tilt structure 134 enables adaptive floating leveling of the housing 135 and the pressure plate 136, ensuring uniform surface contact across the entire area from the start of stamping. This guarantees that forming pressure and temperature-controlled heat can be evenly transferred to the entire profile cross-section, fundamentally avoiding various quality defects caused by poor contact and significantly improving the uniformity of product wall thickness and dimensional consistency. At the same time, the heat exchanger 131 is directly integrated into the housing 135, transferring heat through the large-area pressure plate 136. The heat conduction path is short and efficient. Combined with the aforementioned uniform surface contact, this allows for faster and more uniform temperature control response to the mold and profile, enabling more precise execution of advanced temperature control processes such as isothermal forming and gradient cooling. This effectively controls the material flow behavior, springback, and final microstructure, thereby broadening the process window and stably producing high-precision, high-performance profiles.

[0027] Preferably, the heat exchanger 131 is a heat pipe heat exchanger 131. A heat exchange tube is disposed on the housing 135. Simultaneously, a complex closed-loop flow channel communicating with the heat exchange tube is machined or embedded inside the housing 135. An external intelligent temperature control unit (such as a mold temperature controller) drives the heat transfer oil or water / glycol mixture, etc., from the heat exchange tube into the closed-loop flow channel and forces it to circulate within the closed-loop flow channel, thereby heating or cooling the housing 135 and the pressure plate 136. This is prior art and will not be described in detail.

[0028] Specifically, the connecting structure 133 includes a connecting rod and a first locking plate. One end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the sleeve 132, and the other end of the connecting rod is provided with the first locking plate.

[0029] like Figure 4As shown, specifically, the tilting structure 134 includes a second locking plate, an adjusting handle 1341, a telescopic shaft 1342, and a fixing member threaded onto the top of the housing 135. The second locking plate is fixed to the first locking plate by bolts. The adjusting handle 1341 is rotatably connected to the top of both the second locking plate and the telescopic shaft 1342, and the bottom of the telescopic shaft 1342 is fixed to the fixing member. This allows the initial posture (levelness) of the housing 135 to be actively and precisely preset and calibrated, rather than relying entirely on passive adaptation during pressing. Before changing different molds or producing different products, the initial plane of the pressure plate 136 can be quickly adjusted to the optimal fit with the theoretical working surface of the mold, significantly shortening the mold change and machine adjustment time and providing optimal starting conditions for each stamping, thus improving the consistency of forming quality from the source.

[0030] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, the shearing device includes a shearing table 21, a positioning component 22, a moving component 23, and a shearing component 24. Multiple auxiliary translation wheels 211 are spaced apart on the shearing table 21. This guides the profile along a preset path and has a certain degree of automatic centering function, preventing the profile from deviating during transport. The moving component 23 first places the profile onto the shearing plate, and then the auxiliary translation wheels 211 automatically and accurately feed the stamped profile into the specific shearing station on the shearing plate.

[0031] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, specifically, the positioning assembly 22 includes an upper positioning member 221, a lower support member 222, and two side limiting members. The upper positioning member 221 and the two side limiting members are slidably assembled on the shearing table 21. The lower support member 222 is detachably fixed on the shearing table 21. A positioning space is formed between the upper positioning member 221 and the lower support member 222. The two side limiting members are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the positioning space. During the shearing process, any movement or rotation of the profile in the X (left-right), Y (up-down), and Z (rotation) directions is completely restricted, providing extremely high positioning rigidity and fundamentally eliminating shearing dimension deviations, end face tilting, or material tearing caused by unstable positioning.

[0032] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, specifically, the moving component 23 includes a track beam 231, a sliding member 232, a lifting member 233, and a first suction member 234 for adsorbing the profile. The track beam 231 is mounted on the shearing table 21, the sliding member 232 is slidably mounted on the track beam 231, the lifting member 233 is mounted on the sliding member 232 and can be raised and lowered relative to the shearing table 21, the suction member is fixed to the bottom of the lifting member 233, and multiple suction cups are spaced apart on the first suction member 234. This achieves automatic material connection between processes, replacing manual handling, overhead crane hoisting, or additional conveyor belts in traditional methods. It facilitates the reciprocating movement of the profile between the shearing device and the two edge grinding devices on both sides. From the completion of stamping to the transfer of the profile to the shearing positioning point or edge grinding processing point, the entire process requires no manual intervention, realizing automated production. It is a key actuator for improving the overall production cycle and achieving unmanned operation.

[0033] Specifically, the shearing assembly 24 includes a shearing robotic arm located on one side of the shearing table 21 and a plasma shearing component mounted on the shearing robotic arm. The plasma beam can easily cut any complex cross-sectional shape, unrestricted by internal ribs or partitions in the profile, solving the problem that mechanical shears cannot cut closed cavities or complex internal structures. Simultaneously, the robotic arm can drive the plasma shearing component to move along any planned path in three-dimensional space. This allows it not only to perform straight-line cutting perpendicular to the profile but also to easily complete complex secondary processing such as beveling, creating irregular holes, and cutting notches, demonstrating a high degree of functional integration.

[0034] The plasma shearing component described above is not shown in the illustrations. This is prior art and will not be described in detail.

[0035] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, in one embodiment, the edge grinding device includes an edge grinding table 25, a support 26, an edge grinding wheel 27, and two edge grinding robotic arms 28. The support 26 and the two edge grinding robotic arms 28 are all fixed on the edge grinding table 25. A swing arm is oscillating on the support 26, and the edge grinding wheel 27 is rotatably mounted on the swing arm. An edge grinding head 281 is provided on the edge grinding robotic arm 28, and the outer surface of the edge grinding head 281 is covered with an edge grinding cloth. The swing arm on the support 26 drives the high-speed rotating edge grinding wheel 27 (usually a grinding wheel or milling cutter) to perform oscillating grinding. The oscillating motion of the edge grinding wheel 27 allows it to better conform to the irregular contour of the profile end face (such as unevenness caused by internal ribs), achieving uniform grinding and avoiding local over-grinding or omissions. The edge grinding heads 281 at the ends of the two edge grinding robotic arms 28 are covered with an edge grinding cloth (such as a scouring pad, nylon wheel, or sandpaper belt) to perform flexible contact polishing on the rough-ground end face and adjacent areas. The edge-grinding cloth has natural flexibility and elasticity. Under the precise control of the edge-grinding robotic arm 28, it can adhere to the end face with constant contact pressure, adapt to the micro-unevenness of the end face, achieve full coverage and polishing without dead angles, and process the rounded corners of the profile edges. The above-mentioned combined edge-grinding processing strategy can not only remove materials quickly and ensure efficiency, but also obtain a smooth and uniform surface finish, avoid excessive grinding that damages the profile edges or causes secondary scratches, and obtain a high-quality end face that can be directly used for precision welding or assembly in one step.

[0036] Preferably, the grinding cloth is abrasive cloth or scouring pad. Both abrasive cloth and scouring pad are standard grinding products produced industrially, and their abrasive particle size, distribution density, and bonding strength are uniform and controllable.

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the aluminum profile stamping equipment for the battery tray front beam further includes a transfer mechanism 3. The transfer mechanism 3 includes a first discharge device 31, a cooling device 32, a second discharge device 33, and a transfer device 34 arranged sequentially. The first discharge device 31 is equipped with several first conveyor belts. The cooling device 32 includes a cooling cabinet and a cooling conveyor belt disposed within the cooling cabinet. A cooling fan is installed on the cooling cabinet above the cooling conveyor belt. The second discharge device 33 is equipped with multiple conveying rollers, which form a first conveying space. The cooling conveyor belt connects the first conveyor belt and the first conveying space. After stamping, the high-temperature profile has an unstable microstructure and internal stress. The cooling device 32 (including the cooling cabinet, the cooling conveyor belt, and the cooling fan above) provides a controlled forced cooling environment for the profile. As the profile passes through the cooling conveyor belt at a uniform speed, it is uniformly and controllably cooled to near room temperature, cooling the profile to a safe temperature, creating conditions for subsequent automatic transfer, manual contact, or precision inspection.

[0038] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment, the transfer device 34 includes a swing-mounted second suction member 341 and an inclined track platform 342. The second suction member 341 is used to transfer the profile from the conveying space to the track platform 342. The track platform 342 is equipped with a slide rail 343 and a support rail 344 that slide vertically. A second conveying space is formed between the slide rail 343 and the support rail 344. The slide rail 343 is equipped with multiple rollers 3431 that abut against the profile, and the support rail 344 is equipped with multiple support plates 3441 for supporting the profile. The swing-mounted second suction member 341 can rotate and swing in the horizontal plane. During operation, it grabs the profile from above the conveying roller of the second discharge device 33 using vacuum suction, and then swings at an angle to accurately place the profile onto the inclined track platform 342. In addition, the height adjustability of the slide rail 343 and the support rail 344 allows the same set of track platforms 342 to adapt to different specifications of battery tray front beams. When changing products, the height of the slide rail 343 and the support rail 344 can be quickly adjusted according to the cross-sectional dimensions of the new product, and the swing angle and position of the second adsorption component 341 can be finely adjusted to complete the conversion. This greatly enhances the production flexibility of the entire set of equipment, reduces the investment in special tooling for different products, and shortens the changeover time.

[0039] In one embodiment, the aluminum profile stamping and forming equipment for the battery tray front beam also includes a transfer robotic arm 4. The transfer robotic arm 4 is equipped with a third adsorption component. The transfer robotic arm 4 is used to transfer the profile from the mold to the shearing table 21 or to transfer the profile from the shearing table 21 to the conveyor belt. As a standardized automation module, the transfer robotic arm 4 can be easily expanded in the future, for example, by integrating a vision system for initial quality inspection, or by replacing the end tool to perform other operations (such as spraying release agent or labeling), thus reserving an interface for the intelligent upgrade of the production line.

[0040] like Figure 8As shown, in one embodiment, the aluminum profile stamping forming equipment for the front beam of the battery tray also includes a bending mechanism 5, which includes a bending cabinet 51, a lower pressure seat 52, and a processing platform 53. The bending cabinet 51 is equipped with a lifting rail 54, and the lower pressure seat 52 is slidably mounted on the lifting rail 54. Multiple lower pressure heads 521 are spaced apart at the bottom of the lower pressure seat 52. The processing platform 53 is installed on the bending cabinet 51 and is located between the lower pressure seat 52 and the track table 342. A bending protrusion 531 is protruding on the processing platform 53, and a bending groove is opened in the bending protrusion 531. The lower pressure head 521 is adapted to the bending groove. The bending cabinet 51 is also equipped with a level 55, a power distribution box, and a control panel 56 for controlling the lifting state of the lower pressure seat 52. The level 55 is installed between the lower pressure head 521 and the bending protrusion 531. Thus, through the synergistic effect of multiple pressure heads 521 spaced apart at the bottom of the pressure seat 52, the bending protrusions 531 protruding on the processing platform 53, and the internal bending grooves, specific parts of the profile placed on the platform are locally pressurized and formed. The multiple pressure heads 521 spaced apart can correspond to multiple key support points of the profile cross-section (such as the side walls or the top of the ribs), ensuring uniform pressure distribution and preventing local instability or crushing. At the same time, the pressure heads 521 and the bending grooves are precisely matched, providing precise guidance and limiting space for the deformation of the profile. The level 55 installed in the key area between the pressure heads 521 and the bending protrusions 531 is used to monitor and calibrate the absolute levelness of the processing platform 53 in real time, which is fundamental to ensuring consistent bending angles and no torsional deformation.

[0041] The bending mechanism 5 described above can press out precise upward or downward bends, reinforcing ribs, or local concave features at specific length positions of the front beam profile (such as the off-vehicle mounting point or the connecting support), enabling a single profile to achieve a more complex spatial structure, meeting the assembly and load-bearing requirements of the battery tray, reducing the number of subsequent welding or connecting parts, and further achieving lightweighting and integration.

[0042] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the aluminum profile stamping and forming equipment for the battery tray front beam also includes a discharge mechanism 6 located on one side of the bending mechanism 5. The discharge mechanism 6 includes a third discharge device, on which a second conveyor belt is provided. As the last physical link of the entire production line, it receives the finished profile that has completed all processing steps from the bending mechanism 5 (or, if there is no bending, from the transfer mechanism 3), and smoothly and orderly conveys it out of the equipment working area via the second conveyor belt.

[0043] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described.
