Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of automotive parts forging technology, and in particular to an automotive parts forging apparatus and method. Background Technology

[0002] Forging is a processing method that uses forging machinery to apply pressure to a metal billet, causing it to undergo plastic deformation to obtain forgings with specific mechanical properties, shapes, and dimensions. As a key process in automotive parts manufacturing, forging can eliminate defects such as casting porosity that occur during the smelting process and optimize the microstructure.

[0003] The forging objects in automotive parts forging equipment are typically block, rod, or tubular part blanks. To improve forging quality, strict requirements are placed on the orientation angle of the parts during forging. However, when forging cylindrical parts, due to their rolling characteristics, a supporting die is usually installed to improve forging stability. This supports the cylindrical parts within the die groove, limiting their position and improving stability during forging. However, the ends of existing supporting dies are usually sealed, requiring manual removal of the cylindrical parts from the die after forging. This manual removal consumes excessive time. Therefore, this solution proposes an automotive parts forging apparatus and method to address these problems. Summary of the Invention

[0032] This invention proposes a method for forging automotive parts, which is completed using the aforementioned automotive parts forging apparatus, and includes the following steps:

[0033] S1. The columnar component is placed inside the mold groove, and the columnar component is forged and formed by the forging mechanism.

[0034] S2. After forging, adjust the positioning die to rotate 90 degrees. At this time, the positioning die is separated from the connecting die and rotates to a vertical position. The die groove on the positioning die is aligned with the receiving groove. Under the transmission action of the transmission component, the transfer roller rotates. The transfer roller slides through the telescopic component to simultaneously adjust the cover baffle and the push plate. The cover baffle slides to cancel the closed die groove, and the push plate is inserted into the inside of the die groove, pushing the columnar part out to the inside of the receiving groove.

[0035] S3. Adjust the side-mounted part-removing mold to the outside of the base, and adjust the positioning mold to the reset position. Remove the columnar part from the storage slot to complete the part-removal process.

[0036] The automotive parts forging apparatus and method of the present invention have the following advantages over the prior art:

[0037] (1) The automotive parts forging apparatus of this application includes a lower forming support mold comprising a separable adjusting mold and a connecting mold. The adjusting mold is rotatable. Therefore, after the forging of the columnar parts is completed, the columnar parts can be removed from the forging station and aligned with the side take-off mold by adjusting the rotation of the adjusting mold. By setting a cover baffle to cover the connection between the first assembly cavity and the mold groove, the first assembly cavity can be prevented from interfering with the forging and forming process of the columnar parts. By setting a pusher plate that can slide to the inside of the push-in mold groove, the pusher plate can conveniently push the columnar parts out to the inside of the receiving groove. By setting both the cover baffle and the pusher plate to be connected to the transfer roller through a telescopic component, the bidirectional driving process of the cover baffle and the pusher plate can be completed when the rotation of the transfer roller is adjusted. By setting a transmission component, the adjusting mold drives the transfer roller to rotate when it rotates, thus completing the automatic driving process of the cover baffle and the pusher plate, thereby facilitating the automatic unloading process of the columnar parts. By setting the side-removing mold to be movable to the outside of the base, after the columnar parts are stored inside the storage groove, the columnar parts can be adjusted to move to the outside of the base, making it easy to remove the formed columnar parts. By combining the adjusting mold and the connecting mold, a lower support mold for casting is formed. By combining the adjusting mold and the side-removing mold, a workpiece for removing and unloading the cast columnar parts is formed, which facilitates the removal of the cast columnar parts and makes it convenient to use.

[0038] (2) By setting a limiting plate, since the side of the limiting plate away from the storage slot is inclined, the columnar component can move away from the storage slot by abutting the limiting plate during the adjustment of the positioning mold to align with the side take-up mold, and the columnar component can be smoothly stored inside the storage slot. By setting the side of the limiting plate near the storage slot to be flat, after the columnar component is stored inside the storage slot and the adjustment mold is adjusted to the reset position, the limiting plate can slide to the reset position under the action of the reset spring and abut against the columnar component, thereby improving the storage stability of the columnar component in the storage slot. By setting the assembly frame to be sliding and setting a clamping spring between the assembly frame and the side take-up mold, the limiting plate can be kept in stable contact with the columnar component under the action of the clamping spring, thereby improving the storage stability of the columnar component.

[0039] (3) By setting a support plate, after the columnar parts are unloaded by the fixture, the two clamps of the fixture can be placed into the two first assembly cavities respectively. At this time, the clamps press down on the support plate, and the support plate presses against the inclined top wall of the end limiting plate, so that the end limiting plate slides into the mold groove and abuts against the columnar parts, thereby positioning the columnar parts at the casting position for easy use. By setting the end wall of the end limiting plate to be an arc-shaped wall that matches the shape of the mold groove, the end limiting plate can be completely detached from the mold groove when the clamps of the fixture are not placed, which facilitates the placement of the columnar parts. By setting the clamps to abut against the top and bottom walls of the support plate respectively, the positioning of the support plate is completed, which facilitates the improvement of the stability of the end limiting plate in positioning the columnar parts.

[0051] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0052] like Figures 1-9As shown, the automotive parts forging apparatus of the present invention includes a base 1, a lower forming support mold 2, a cover baffle 31, a pusher plate 32, a transfer roller 33, a telescopic component 34, a transmission assembly 4, and a side-loading mold 5. The lower forming support mold 2 includes an adjustment mold 21 and a connecting mold 22 that are spliced ​​together. The adjustment mold 21 is hinged to the base 1, and the connecting mold 22 is fixedly connected to the base 1. A first assembly groove 12 is provided on the top of the base 1. The hinge point between the adjustment mold 21 and the lower forming support mold 2 is located inside the first assembly groove 12. Both the adjustment mold 21 and the connecting mold 22 have interconnected mold grooves 23 on their tops, which are used to support columnar parts 10. A forging mechanism 11 is provided on the top of the base 1 for forging the columnar parts 10 on the lower forming support mold 2. A first assembly cavity 211 is provided inside the adjustment mold 21, and the first assembly cavity 211 is connected to one end of the mold groove 23. The cover baffle 31 and the pusher plate 32 are both slidably disposed inside the first assembly cavity 211, and the sliding directions of the cover baffle 31 and the pusher plate 32 are perpendicular to each other. The cover baffle 31 is used to slide to cover the connection between the first assembly cavity 211 and the mold groove 23, and the pusher plate 32 is used to slide to push the support columnar component 10 out of the mold groove 23. The transfer roller 33 is rotatably disposed inside the first assembly cavity 211, and two telescopic members 34 are provided on the transfer roller 33. The telescopic ends of the two telescopic members 34 are respectively hinged to the cover baffle 31 and the pusher plate 32. The transmission assembly 4 is disposed inside the first assembly cavity 211 and is used to drive the transfer roller 33 to rotate. The side take-up mold 5 is rotatably disposed on the base 1, located on one side of the adjustment mold 21, and is used to rotate to be located outside the base 1. The side take-up mold 5 is provided with a receiving groove 51 opposite to the mold groove 23. The receiving groove 51 is used for inserting the columnar component 10.

[0053] In practice, the columnar component 10 is placed inside the mold groove 23, and the forging process of the columnar component 10 is completed by the forging mechanism 11. After forging, the adjusting mold 21 is rotated 90 degrees. At this time, the adjusting mold 21 is disengaged from the connecting mold 22 and rotated to a vertical position. The mold groove 23 on the adjusting mold 21 is aligned with the receiving groove 51. Under the transmission action of the transmission component 4, the transfer roller 33 rotates. The transfer roller 33 slides through the telescopic component 34 to simultaneously adjust the cover baffle 31 and the pusher plate 32. The cover baffle 31 slides to cancel the closing of the mold groove 23, and the pusher plate 32 is inserted into the interior of the mold groove 23, pushing the columnar component 10 out to the interior of the receiving groove 51. The adjusting side take-out mold 5 is moved to the outside of the base 1, and the adjusting mold 21 is adjusted to rotate to the reset position to take out the columnar component 10 from the receiving groove 51, thus completing the take-out process of the columnar component 10.

[0054] The automotive parts forging apparatus of this application includes a lower forming support mold 2 comprising a separable adjusting mold 21 and a connecting mold 22. Since the adjusting mold 21 is rotatable, after forging the columnar part 10, the columnar part 10 can be removed from the forging station and aligned with the side take-off mold 5 by adjusting the rotation of the adjusting mold 21. A cover baffle 31 covers the connection between the first assembly cavity 211 and the mold groove 23, preventing the first assembly cavity 211 from interfering with the forging process of the columnar part. A pusher plate 32 can slide to the top of the mold groove 23. The pusher plate 32 can easily push the columnar component 10 into the storage groove 51. By setting the cover baffle 31 and the pusher plate 32 to be connected to the transfer roller 33 through the telescopic component 34, the bidirectional driving process of the cover baffle 31 and the pusher plate 32 can be completed when the transfer roller 33 is rotated. By setting the transmission component 4, the adjustment mold 21 drives the transfer roller 33 to rotate when it rotates, thus completing the automatic driving process of the cover baffle 31 and the pusher plate 32, which facilitates the automatic unloading process of the columnar component 10. By setting the side-removing mold 5 to be movable to the outside of the base 1, after the columnar component 10 is stored inside the storage groove 51, the columnar component 10 can be adjusted to move to the outside of the base 1, thereby facilitating the removal of the formed columnar component 10. By combining the adjusting mold 21 and the connecting mold 22, a lower support mold for casting is formed. By combining the adjusting mold 21 and the side-removing mold 5, a workpiece for removing and unloading the cast columnar component 10 is formed, which facilitates the removal of the cast columnar component 10 and makes it convenient to use.

[0055] In a preferred embodiment, the transmission assembly 4 includes a transmission plate 41, a first spring 42, and a clamping plate 43. The transmission plate 41 is slidably disposed inside the first assembly cavity 211, and the first spring 42 is disposed between the transmission plate 41 and the first assembly cavity 211 to reset the sliding position of the transmission plate 41. Both clamping plates 43 are disposed on the transfer roller 33, and a clamping gap 431 is formed between the two clamping plates 43. The transmission plate 41 is inserted into the inside of the clamping gap 431.

[0056] The transmission assembly 4 also includes an adjusting torsion bar 44. The top of the adjusting mold 21 has a first assembly hole 212 that communicates with the first assembly cavity 211. The adjusting torsion bar 44 is disposed on the transmission plate 41 and passes through the first assembly hole 212. When the adjusting mold 21 rotates, the adjusting torsion bar 44 is used to rotate to abut against the outer wall of the side take-up mold 5.

[0057] In practice, during the period when the adjusting mold 21 rotates to align with the side take-up mold 5, the side wall of the side take-up mold 5 automatically abuts against the adjusting torsion bar 44, causing the adjusting torsion bar 44 to slide along the first assembly hole 212 and drive the transmission plate 41 to slide. The transmission plate 41 completes the transmission process of the transfer roller 33 by moving inside the clamping gap 431, thereby completing the adjustment process of the cover baffle 31 and the push plate 32 automatically during the period when the adjusting mold 21 rotates to align with the side take-up mold 5, which is convenient to use.

[0058] In a preferred embodiment, a limiting component 6 is also included. The limiting component 6 includes an assembly frame 61, a limiting plate 62, and a return spring 63. The assembly frame 61 is disposed on the side take-up mold 5, and the limiting plate 62 is slidably disposed on the inner side of the assembly frame 61 and opposite to the receiving groove 51. The side of the limiting plate 62 near the receiving groove 51 is flat, and the side of the limiting plate 62 away from the receiving groove 51 is inclined. The return spring 63 is disposed between the assembly frame 61 and the limiting plate 62 and is used to reset the sliding position of the limiting plate 62.

[0059] The assembly frame 61 has a positioning plate 611. The positioning plate 611 is located on the side of the limiting plate 62 away from the receiving groove 51, and the positioning plate 611 is positioned opposite to the outer wall of the adjusting mold 21 in the height direction, for abutting against the outer wall of the adjusting mold 21.

[0060] The assembly frame 61 is slidably connected to the side part-removing mold 5, and a clamping spring 64 is provided between the assembly frame 61 and the side part-removing mold 5.

[0061] By setting a limiting plate 62, since the side of the limiting plate 62 away from the storage groove 51 is inclined, the columnar component 10 can move to disengage from the storage groove 51 by abutting the limiting plate 62 during the adjustment of the positioning mold 21 to align with the side take-off mold 5, and the columnar component 10 can be smoothly stored inside the storage groove 51. By setting the side of the limiting plate 62 close to the storage groove 51 to be flat, after the columnar component 10 is stored inside the storage groove 51 and the positioning mold 21 is adjusted to the reset position, the limiting plate 62 can slide to the reset position under the action of the reset spring 63 and abut against the columnar component 10 to limit its position, thereby improving the storage stability of the storage groove 51 for the columnar component 10. By setting the assembly frame 61 to slide, and by setting a clamping spring 64 between the assembly frame 61 and the side take-up mold 5, the limiting plate 62 can be kept in stable contact with the columnar component 10 under the action of the clamping spring 64, thereby improving the storage stability of the columnar component 10.

[0062] In a preferred embodiment, the system further includes a drive roller 71, a feeding belt 72, and a drive motor 73. A second assembly groove 13 is provided on the base 1, which connects to the top of the base 1 and the outer side of the base 1. Multiple drive rollers 71 are rotatably disposed inside the second assembly groove 13, and the feeding belt 72 is connected to the multiple drive rollers 71 in a transmission manner. The side-picking mold 5 is fixedly connected to the feeding belt 72.

[0063] In specific implementation, there are four drive rollers 71, and the four drive rollers 71 are distributed in a rectangular array.

[0064] In practice, the drive motor 73 drives the drive roller 71 to rotate, thereby driving the rotation of the feeding belt 72. By setting the four drive rollers 71 in a rectangular array, the feeding belt 72 is made rectangular. This allows for the displacement and rotation adjustment of the opposite part-picking mold 5 during the rotation of the feeding belt 72, making it convenient to use.

[0065] In a preferred embodiment, the device further includes a support plate 81, an end limiting plate 82, and a second spring 83. The end of the connecting mold 22 is provided with a relief groove 221 that communicates with the mold groove 23, and the end of the connecting mold 22 is also provided with a second assembly cavity 222 that communicates with the top wall of the connecting mold 22. The second assembly cavity 222 is located outside the relief groove 221 and is used to store the chuck of the columnar component 10 clamp. The inner side of the second assembly cavity 222 is provided with a second assembly hole 223 that communicates with the mold groove 23. Both the support plate 81 and the end limiting plate 82 are slidably disposed inside the second assembly cavity 222. The support plate 81 is used to slide to press against the top wall of the end limiting plate 82, and the end limiting plate 82 is used to slide through the second assembly hole 223 and limit the columnar component 10. The top wall of the end limiting plate 82 is an inclined wall, and the end wall of the end limiting plate 82 is an arc-shaped wall that matches the shape of the mold groove 23. The second spring 83 is disposed between the end limiting plate 82 and the second assembly cavity 222 and is used to reset the sliding position of the end limiting plate 82.

[0066] It also includes a locking head 84 and a third spring 85. The second assembly cavity 222 has an installation groove 224 on its inner side. The locking head 84 is slidably disposed on the inner side of the installation groove 224. The locking head 84 is an arc-shaped head used to limit the sliding position of the support plate 81. The third spring 85 is disposed between the locking head 84 and the installation groove 224 and is used to reset the sliding position of the locking head 84.

[0067] By setting the support plate 81, after the columnar part 10 is unloaded by the fixture, the two clamps of the fixture can be placed into the two first assembly cavities 211 respectively. At this time, the clamps press down on the support plate 81, and the support plate 81 abuts against the inclined top wall of the end limiting plate 82, so that the end limiting plate 82 slides into the mold groove 23 and abuts against the columnar part 10, thereby positioning the columnar part 10 at the casting position for easy use. By setting the end wall of the end limiting plate 82 to be an arc-shaped wall that matches the shape of the mold groove 23, the end limiting plate 82 can be completely detached from the mold groove 23 when the clamps of the fixture are not placed, which facilitates the placement of the columnar part 10. By setting the clamps 84 to abut against the top and bottom walls of the support plate 81 respectively, the positioning of the support plate 81 is completed, which facilitates the stability of the end limiting plate 82 in positioning the columnar part 10.

[0068] This invention also proposes a method for forging automotive parts, which is completed using the aforementioned automotive parts forging apparatus, and includes the following steps:

[0069] Step 1: Place the columnar component 10 inside the mold groove 23, and complete the forging and forming process of the columnar component 10 through the forging mechanism 11;

[0070] Step 2: After forging is completed, adjust the positioning mold 21 to rotate 90 degrees. At this time, the positioning mold 21 is disengaged from the connecting mold 22 and rotates to a vertical position. The mold groove 23 on the positioning mold 21 is aligned with the receiving groove 51. Under the transmission action of the transmission component 4, the transfer roller 33 rotates. The transfer roller 33 adjusts the cover baffle 31 and the pusher plate 32 to slide through the telescopic component 34. The cover baffle 31 slides to cancel the closing mold groove 23. The pusher plate 32 is inserted into the inside of the mold groove 23 and pushes the columnar component 10 out to the inside of the receiving groove 51.

[0071] Step 3: Adjust the side-removing mold 5 to move to the outside of the base 1, and adjust the positioning mold 21 to rotate to the reset position, so as to remove the columnar component 10 from the storage slot 51 and complete the removal process of the columnar component 10.

[0072] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
