[0031] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in order to facilitate the movement of the mold on the mold changing trolley 5, a support rail 1 507 is also provided on the mold changing trolley 5. The length direction of the support rail 1 507 is parallel to the moving direction of the mold changing hook assembly 1 501. The support rail 1 507 is provided with rollers.

The mold library 1 is also provided with a support rail 2 104. The structure of the support rail 2 104 is the same as that of the support rail 1 507. The length direction of the support rail 2 104 is parallel to the moving direction of the mold changing hook assembly 101. The moving direction is parallel. In this specific embodiment, two support rails 104 are provided and are located in parallel on both sides of the mold-changing hook assembly 101. The support rails 1 507 and the support rails 104 are used to support the movement of the mold. The mold-changing trolley 5 is also symmetrically provided with guide wheels 516, which are located on both sides of the mold. In this specific embodiment, four guide wheels 516 are provided and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mold-changing trolley 5. When the mold moves, the guide wheels 516 can contact and rotate with the side of the mold. The length direction of the support rails 1 507 is parallel to that of the support rails 104. The support rails 1 507 and the guide wheels 516 can guide the movement of the mold and reduce resistance, thereby ensuring smooth transportation of the mold.

[0032] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, in order to realize the automatic hooking and unhooking of the mold changing hook component 1 501 and the mold changing hook component 2 101, the mold changing hook component 1 501 has the same structure as the mold changing hook component 2 101, and both include a hook body 5011, the hook body 5011 is hinged on the base 5012, the hook body 5011 can swing up and down, the hook body 5011 can be connected to the mold, and the base 5012 is connected to the corresponding drive component 1 511 or the drive component 2 107.

The roller chain 514 is connected to the base 5012. In this specific embodiment, the roller chain 514 is arranged in the cavity of the mounting channel steel 512. The mounting channel steel 512 adopts C-shaped steel. The mounting channel steel 512 is arranged on the mold changing trolley 5. The rollers on both sides of the roller chain 514 are located on both sides of the mounting channel steel 512. The upper groove wall of the mounting channel steel 512 can prevent the roller chain 514 from arching, thereby ensuring the thrust of the roller chain 514 on the mold. The hook body 5011 is driven by the forward and reverse rotation of the motor to realize the pulling and pushing of the mold. The driving component 1 511 and the driving component 2 107 can also use electric The hook body 5011 is driven by a driving screw; the groove of the hook body 5011 is a rectangular groove, and a guide slope is provided at the front of the hook body 5011. The end of the guide slope away from the base 5012 is inclined upward, and the guide slope can be attached to the outer side of the hanging module on the mold. The hook body 5011 is connected to a decoupling cylinder 506, and the decoupling cylinder 506 can drive the hook body 5011 to swing upward. The decoupling cylinder 506 is electrically connected to the controller. In this specific embodiment, a transmission plate is provided on the upper part of the hook body 5011, and one end of the transmission plate is hinged to the piston rod of the decoupling cylinder 506. The decoupling cylinder 506 is connected to the base 5012, and the cooperation of the guide slope and the hanging module realizes a pure machine The hook is mechanically hooked, with a simple structure, low failure rate and high reliability. Automatic unhooking can be achieved through the unhooking cylinder 506, which improves efficiency. When the hook is needed to pull the mold, under the action of the corresponding driving component, the corresponding mold changing hook component moves toward the mold. When the guiding slope of the hook body 5011 hits the hanging module on the mold, the hook body 5011 is lifted up. As the mold changing hook assembly continues to move, until the groove of the hook body 5011 begins to meet the hanging module, the hook body 5011 loses support and falls under the action of gravity to hang on the hanging module to achieve hooking. When unhooking is required, the unhooking cylinder 506 rises, driving the hook body 5011 to swing upward to disengage from the hanging module to achieve unhooking.

[0033] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, in order to be able to judge the mold library 1 corresponding to the mold to be unloaded from the machine, the mold changing trolley 5 and the mold library 1 are provided with a mold recognition component, and the mold recognition component is connected to the controller; the mold recognition component can determine which mold library 1 the mold belongs to, so as to avoid errors when the mold is stored after being unloaded from the machine, resulting in the hemming machine 7 not being able to work normally; in this specific embodiment, the mold recognition component is a proximity switch group 8 and a trigger proton, and the number of proximity switches in the proximity switch group 8 is 4, and the trigger protons are respectively provided on the molds 1-4, wherein the proximity switches are provided on the mold changing trolley 5 and the mold library 1, and the trigger protons are provided on the molds, and the trigger protons on different molds are arranged on the molds. The number of settings is different, so that when the mold to be unloaded is pulled back and close to the signal receiving device, the signal receiving device can receive different numbers of signals. The controller determines which mold library 1 the mold to be unloaded belongs to, and controls the mold changing trolley 5 to move to the corresponding mold library 1 for storage. The mold identification component can also use radio frequency identification technology to obtain mold information by identifying the electronic tag on the mold through a reader; in this specific embodiment, a corresponding signal receiving device is also provided on the mold library 1, which can further receive the signal sent by the proximity switch on the mold, so that the controller can further verify whether the mold corresponds to the mold library 1, thereby realizing double insurance to avoid mold storage errors.

[0034] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, in order to further improve the automation level of the system, a mold changing hook sensor 103 is provided on the mold changing trolley 5 and the mold library 1. The mold changing hook sensor 103 can detect the position of the hook body 5011 of the corresponding mold changing component. The mold changing hook sensor 103 is electrically connected to the controller. In this specific embodiment, the mold changing hook sensor 103 uses a contact travel switch. The contact travel switches are all located in the stop position after the hook body 5011 pulls the mold. The corresponding mold changing hook component is provided with a trigger block. The travel switch is used to determine whether the hook body 5011 moves to the set position. On the one hand, it can determine whether there is a mold in the film changing trolley and the mold library 1 to avoid collision accidents caused by misoperation. On the other hand, it can also enable the controller to control the next action after the mold is pulled back, thereby realizing full automation and further improving the mold changing efficiency.

[0035] In order to ensure that the mold changing trolley 5 moves to the corresponding mold library 1, the support guide rail 1 507 of the trolley is aligned with the support guide rail 2 104 on the mold library 1 to ensure smooth transportation of the mold, the positioning component includes a position judge and a locking cylinder 509, the locking cylinder 509 is arranged on the mold changing trolley 5, the locking cylinder 509 can be locked on the ground rail 9, the position judge and the locking cylinder 509 are both electrically connected to the controller, and the position judge can judge whether the support guide rail 3 518 is aligned with the support guide rail 2 104; in this specific embodiment, a proton is arranged on the ground corresponding to each mold library 1, and a proximity switch is arranged at the corresponding position of the mold changing trolley 5. When the mold changing trolley 5 moves to the corresponding position, the proton triggers the proximity switch to send a signal, the controller determines that the movement is in place, and controls the locking cylinder 509 to lock the ground rail 9 to prevent the trolley from moving, thereby ensuring smooth transportation of the mold between the mold changing trolley 5 and the corresponding mold library 1.

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, in this specific embodiment, the mold-changing trolley 5 adopts an AGV transport vehicle, which can accurately know the moving path under the control, and has high moving accuracy and intelligence level; a transition frame 6 is also provided between the mold-changing trolley 5 and the edge-binding machine 7, and a transition support guide rail is provided on the transition frame 6. The length direction of the transition support guide rail is the same as the length direction of the support guide rail 507, which can evenly support the entire bottom surface of the mold during the movement of the mold, thereby improving the safety of the system; a trolley entry sensor is provided on the transition frame 6 to prevent the mold-changing trolley 5 from passing or failing to drive into place when moving toward the edge-binding machine 7, and a hook entry sensor 601 is also provided on the transition frame 6 to detect the mold-changing hook assembly 501 The position of the hook body 5011 ensures that the mold is pushed into place. Both displacement sensors can use contact proximity sensors. A mold changing hook sensor 102 is also provided at the opening of the mold library 1. The mold changing hook sensor 102 can detect the position of the hook body 5011 of the mold changing hook component 101 to prevent the mold changing hook component 101 from being opened or not being in place, thereby ensuring that the mold is moved into place. A contact proximity sensor can be used. A trolley opening sensor 502 is also provided on the mold changing trolley 5 to prevent the mold changing trolley 5 from being opened when moving away from the hemming machine 7 and causing a collision. The trolley opening sensor 502 uses a contact proximity sensor and can be triggered by a trigger rod set on the ground, thereby locking the trolley with the locking cylinder 509 to avoid derailment and collision.

[0037] The working process of the hemming die changing system is as follows:

[0038] When the mold needs to be changed, the mold changing trolley 5 pulls out the mold to be removed from the hemming machine 7, and then moves horizontally along the arrangement direction of the mold library 1 to the corresponding position of the mold library 1. The mold to be removed is moved to the mold library 1 under the action of the mold changing hook component 2 101, and then, the mold changing trolley 5 moves to another mold library 1 under the action of the controller, and the mold to be loaded is transported to the mold changing trolley 5 through the corresponding mold changing hook component 2 101. After the mold changing trolley 5 moves to the position corresponding to the hemming machine 7, it is transported to the hemming machine 7 under the action of the mold changing hook component 1 501.

[0039] The locking cylinder 509 is a prior art, and its structure is not described in detail. Specific implementation method 2

[0041] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the structure of this specific embodiment is basically the same as that of specific embodiment one, except that: the mold library 1 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mold changing trolley 5.

The mold changing trolley 5 is provided with a support guide rail three 518, and the support guide rail three 518 is also provided with rollers. The length direction of the support guide rail three 518 is perpendicular to the length direction of the support guide rail one 507, and the support guide rail one 507 can be raised and lowered. After the support guide rail one 507 is lowered, it is lower than the support guide rail three 518. When the support guide rail one 507 is lowered, the mold just falls on the support guide rail three 518. The length direction of the support guide rail three 518 is parallel to the length direction of the support guide rail two 104, and the guide wheel 516 can also be raised and lowered. Through such an arrangement, the space on both sides of the mold changing trolley 5 is utilized, which reduces the space occupancy of the system. At the same time, during the mold changing process, the moving distance of the mold changing trolley 5 is effectively reduced, thereby improving the mold changing efficiency.

[0042] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in this specific embodiment, in order to realize modular design, the support guide rail 507 uses a mold lifter, and the mold lifter is electrically connected to the controller; a lifting cylinder 504 is arranged at the lower part of the guide wheel 516, and the lifting cylinder 504 is installed on the mold changing trolley 5, and a corresponding groove is arranged on the mold changing trolley 5 to enable the guide wheel 516 to be located in the groove after being lowered to avoid interference during the horizontal transportation of the mold. In this specific embodiment, rollers are arranged on all sides of the mold changing trolley 5, among which the rollers close to the hook body 5011 to pull back the mold position do not need to be provided with a lifting cylinder 504.

[0043] The mold lifter is a prior art, and its specific structure will not be described in detail.

[0044] The mold changing method according to this specific embodiment comprises the following steps:

[0045] S01: The mold changing hook assembly moves away from the mold changing trolley and hangs on the mold to be unloaded;

[0046] S02: The die-changing hook assembly moves in a direction away from the hemming machine;

[0047] S03: The mold changing trolley moves to the mold library corresponding to the mold to be unloaded;

[0048] S04: Once the mold changing hook assembly is unhooked, the support rail descends, and the guide wheel descends;

[0049] S05: The second mold-changing hook assembly moves toward the mold-changing trolley and hangs on the mold to be unloaded;

[0050] S06: The second die-changing hook assembly moves away from the die-changing trolley;

[0051] S07: After the mold changing hook assembly 2 is moved into position, the mold changing trolley moves to the mold library where the mold to be loaded is placed;

[0052] S08: The mold changing hook assembly 2 of the mold library of the mold to be loaded on the machine moves toward the direction close to the mold changing trolley, and unhooks after reaching the position;

[0053] S09: The die-changing hook assembly is hung on the die to be loaded on the machine, and the die-changing trolley moves toward the hemming machine;

[0054] S10: After the die-changing trolley moves into position, the die-changing hook assembly pushes the die to be loaded to move toward the hemming machine, and the guide wheel rises at the same time;

[0055] S011: Once the mold-changing hook assembly moves into position, it is unhooked and the hemming machine moves the mold to be loaded into the machine body.

[0056] In S01, when the mold needs to be changed, the mold changing trolley is first determined to be empty, that is, the mold changing hook component 1 is determined to be not in the set position through the travel switch on the mold changing trolley. When it is determined that the mold changing trolley is empty, the mold changing hook component 1 is driven to move toward the hemming machine for hooking; in S03, when the mold changing hook component 1 collides with the travel switch, the mold changing hook component 1 stops moving, and the mold changing trolley starts to move toward the mold library corresponding to the mold to be unloaded. When the positioning component locks the mold changing trolley, the mold changing trolley stops moving; in S04, the height of the support guide rail 1 descends by 1-2cm. In S06, the mold recognition component in the corresponding mold library recognizes whether the mold is the corresponding mold; in S08, the displacement sensor on the mold library is used to determine whether the mold has moved into place.

[0057] From the above specific implementations, it can be seen that the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0058] Through the cooperation of the mold changing trolley 5, the mold changing hook assembly 1 501, the mold changing hook assembly 2 101, and the mold library 1, it is possible to automatically load and unload the mold instead of manual labor, thereby improving the mold changing efficiency and avoiding the risk of mold changing; the support guide rail 1 507 and the guide wheel 516 can guide the movement of the mold and reduce the resistance; the cooperation of the guide slope and the hanging module realizes pure mechanical hooking, which has a simple structure, low failure rate, and high reliability.
