Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of die-cutting processing, specifically to a universal adjustable positioning and width-compatible method for the base plate of a die-cutting machine. Background Technology

[0002] In die-cutting, to ensure product dimensional accuracy, each die is precisely positioned on the die-cutting machine. The industry standard practice is to design positioning pins on the die according to the size requirements of each product, and simultaneously create positioning holes at corresponding positions on the die base plate. When the die is placed on the machine, the positioning pins insert into the positioning holes, thus fixing the die in the preset precise position and ensuring product dimensional accuracy. However, the following problems exist: ① Each die requires a dedicated base plate, resulting in significant cost waste. Because the positioning pin positions differ for different products, matching die base plates must be manufactured separately. For each new product developed, in addition to manufacturing the die itself, a corresponding dedicated base plate with specific positioning holes must also be made. As the number of product models increases, base plates accumulate, leading to substantial waste. ② The base plate width is fixed, and different materials cannot use the same width. Different products use different widths of support film. The existing base plate width is fixed, so 40mm material requires a 40mm base plate, and 55mm material requires a 55mm base plate. Therefore, if the material width changes slightly, a new base plate must be made, further exacerbating the expansion of base plate types. ③ Warehouse management is burdensome. A large number of base plates are needed, stored, and maintained, occupying warehouse space, and searching for them is time-consuming and laborious. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention provides a universal adjustable positioning and width-compatible base plate method for die-cutting machines. This method adjusts and locks the positioning holes according to the actual positioning pin position of each die, and uses a standard width base plate to adapt to a certain range of material widths, thereby reducing the number of base plates required.

[0004] A universal adjustable positioning and width compatible base plate method for die-cutting machines is characterized by: standardizing the width between the positioning holes on both sides of the base plate according to the material width range to form a standard base plate, so that a standard base plate can cover multiple material widths within a certain range; at the same time, a sliding positioning hole module is integrated on the standard base plate, so that the positioning holes corresponding to the positioning hole module can slide and lock according to the actual positioning pin position of each die.

[0005] Its further features are: When the width of the positioning holes on both sides of the preset standard base plate is N mm, the width of the material it covers is (LN) mm, and NL=K, then the width of the positioning holes on both sides of each standard base plate is (N±nK) mm, where n is a natural number greater than or equal to 1, and the width of each standard base plate is a positive number. Preferably, if K equals 20 and N equals 60, then the width dimensions of the positioning holes on both sides of the standard base plate are 40mm, 60mm, 80mm, 100mm...; The sliding positioning hole module includes a slide groove, a positioning hole plate, and a locking structure. The positioning hole plate is provided with positioning holes corresponding to the standard sleeve pins. The positioning hole plate is embedded in the slide groove. When the positioning holes on the positioning hole plate move to the corresponding positions, the locking mechanism completes the locking of the positioning hole plate to the position corresponding to the standard base plate. The standard base plate has recessed sliding grooves on both sides of its upper surface in the width direction, and a locking guide groove is provided on the outer side of the sliding groove in the thickness direction. The locking mechanism presses the positioning hole plate against the side wall of the sliding groove after passing through the locking guide groove with a transmission rod. Preferably, the locking mechanism is a cam pressing mechanism, which includes a mounting base, a transmission rod, and a cam handle. The mounting base is fixed to an external fixing mechanism by fasteners, and the position of the mounting base corresponds to the length direction position of the corresponding slide groove of the positioning hole plate. Then, the cam end of the cam handle drives the transmission rod to press against the positioning hole plate. The chute is a T-shaped chute that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The positioning hole plate is placed in the upper part of the chute, and the upper surface of the positioning hole plate is flush with the upper surface of the standard base plate. The number of positioning hole plates in each set of slides shall not be less than one; The corresponding positioning hole plates are arranged according to the number of positioning pins on each side of the die. Due to the setting of the T-slot, the arrangement of the positioning hole plates is quick and convenient. The positioning plate has a rectangular structure when viewed from above, which ensures the stability of the positioning plate when the transmission rod is pressed in place.

[0006] By adopting this invention, the original fixed holes on the base plate are transformed into movable holes. When the positioning pins of the die change, the positioning hole module is slid to the corresponding position, and the positioning pins are inserted and locked when the die is placed on it. Furthermore, the standard base plate adapted to the material width is designed according to the standardization principle, eliminating the need to manufacture base plates one by one. This allows a single standard base plate to cover multiple material widths within a certain range. The positioning holes are slidably adjusted and locked according to the actual positioning pin position of each die, and the use of a standard width base plate to adapt to a certain range of material widths reduces the number of base plates required.

[0008] A universal adjustable positioning and width-compatible method for the base plate of a die-cutting machine, see [link / reference]. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The width between the positioning holes on both sides of the base plate is standardized in a stepped manner according to the material width range, so that a standard base plate can cover a variety of material widths within a certain range. At the same time, a sliding positioning hole module is integrated on the standard base plate, so that the positioning holes corresponding to the positioning hole module can slide and lock according to the actual positioning pin position of each die.

[0009] When the width of the positioning holes on both sides of the preset standard base plate is N mm, the width of the material it covers is (LN) mm, and NL=K, then the width of the positioning holes on both sides of each standard base plate is (N±nK) mm, where n is a natural number greater than or equal to 1, and the width of each standard base plate is a positive number. In a specific embodiment, K equals 20 and N equals 60, so the width dimensions (width) of the positioning holes on both sides of the standard base plate are 60mm, 80mm, 100mm...; that is, when the material width is 40mm-60mm, the standard base plate width is 60mm; when the material width is 60mm-80mm, the standard base plate width is 80mm; when the material width is 80mm-100mm, the standard base plate width is 100mm, and so on.

[0010] In practice, when the material width is 45mm, a standard base plate with a 60mm width of positioning holes on both sides is selected; when the material width is 50mm, a standard base plate with a 60mm width is still selected. That is, all materials with a width in the range of 40-60mm share a standard base plate with a 60mm width of positioning holes on both sides. The spacing between the corresponding positioning pins of the die-cutting mold is maintained at 60mm.

[0011] In a specific embodiment, the sliding positioning hole module includes a slide groove 1, a positioning hole plate 2, and a locking structure 3. The positioning hole plate 2 is provided with a positioning hole 21 corresponding to the standard sleeve pin. The positioning hole plate 2 is embedded in the slide groove 1. When the positioning hole 21 on the positioning hole plate 2 moves to the corresponding position, the locking mechanism 3 completes the locking of the positioning hole plate 2 to the position corresponding to the standard base plate 10. The upper surfaces of both sides of the standard base plate 10 in the width direction are respectively provided with recessed sliding grooves 1, and the outer side of the sliding grooves 1 in the thickness direction is provided with locking guide grooves 4. The locking mechanism 3 presses against the side wall of the positioning hole plate 2 sliding groove 1 after passing through the locking guide grooves 4 via the transmission rod 31.

[0012] In a specific embodiment, the locking mechanism 3 is a cam pressing mechanism, which includes a mounting base 32, a transmission rod 31, and a cam handle 33. The mounting base 32 is fixed to the external fixing mechanism by fasteners, and the position of the mounting base 32 corresponds to the length direction position of the corresponding slide groove 1 of the positioning hole plate 2. Then, the cam end of the cam handle 33 drives the transmission rod 31 to press against the positioning hole plate 2.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the slide 1 is a T-shaped groove that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The positioning hole plate 2 is placed in the upper groove of the slide 1, and the upper surface of the positioning hole plate 2 is flush with the upper surface of the standard base plate 10. The number of positioning hole plates 2 in each set of slide groove 1 is not less than one; the corresponding positioning hole plates 2 are arranged according to the number of sleeve pins on each side of the die. Due to the setting of the T-slot, the arrangement of the positioning hole plates 2 is quick and convenient. The positioning plate 2 has a rectangular structure when viewed from above, which ensures the stability of the positioning plate 2 when the transmission rod 31 is pressed in place.

[0014] The principle is as follows: the original fixed holes on the base plate are transformed into movable holes. When a particular die is needed, the positioning hole module is slid to the corresponding position, the die is placed on it, and the positioning pin is inserted and locked. Furthermore, the standard base plate that is compatible with the material width is designed according to the standardization principle, eliminating the need to manufacture base plates one by one. This allows a single standard base plate to cover multiple material widths within a certain range. The positioning hole is adjusted and locked according to the actual positioning pin position of each die, and the use of a standard width base plate to adapt to a certain range of material widths reduces the number of base plates required.
