Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of mechanical manufacturing, in particular to a thin plate fastening and forming device. Background Art

[0002] In the process of equipment manufacturing, it is inevitable to reliably connect two components in large quantities. The connection method must ensure connection reliability while also meeting the requirements of rapid mass production to ensure processing efficiency.

[0003] The connection methods that meet the above two requirements in the prior art are divided into welding, screw connection, gluing and mortise and tenon structure. Among them, the welding method can refer to patent CN118023681A, "A welding auxiliary device for thin plate welded parts and its welding method", that is, in the prior art including this patent, welding is achieved by driving the welding head close to the welding position by a welding machine, and stably connecting the two parts by means of high temperature and high pressure of electric current or heating. Therefore, during welding, the two parts are heated to the melting point by a heat source to fuse them together. This causes local thermal stress and deformation in the parts during the welding process, so it is necessary to operate with caution. In addition, this connection method is more difficult when processing aluminum alloys or aluminum-magnesium alloys, and has certain limitations.

[0004] The screw connection method can refer to patent CN204884931U, "A thin plate threaded hole anti-slip tooth structure, static contact, conductive connection plate and circuit breaker". In the prior art including this patent, the outer surface with threads is in contact with the inner surface with threads, and one of the parts with threaded structures is rotated to achieve the connection between the two parts. Therefore, screw connection is to fix the two parts by interlocking the threads, and after the connection, the connection may become loose or the thread may slip due to insufficient interlocking, etc., and the connector needs to be checked and tightened regularly.

[0005] The gluing method can refer to patent CN101121275A, "Connection method for repairing veneer of plywood". The prior art including this patent connects two parts by coating adhesives such as hot melt adhesive on the parts and aligning and abutting the two parts before the adhesive solidifies. Using adhesive to bond two parts together can be applicable to the connection of different materials, making up for the shortcomings of the welding method. However, the strength of adhesives varies, and it is necessary to select a suitable adhesive to ensure the reliability of the connection; at the same time, it is necessary to ensure the cleanliness of the surface of the parts and the bonding area before applying the adhesive, otherwise it will affect the stability of the connection between the two parts.

[0006] The mortise and tenon connection method can refer to patent CN219159339U, "A double-plate mortise and tenon connection structure", where the two plates are provided with mutually cooperating mortise and tenon structures to achieve the connection of the two plates. This method requires making the mortise and tenon structure on the two parts respectively, so that the two structures are embedded and fixed to each other. This requires more precision in the production of the mortise and tenon structure, otherwise the fit between the two is not high, affecting the connection stability, so this connection method has higher requirements for process processing.

[0007] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, designing a thin plate fastening and forming device is an important technical problem that technicians in this field need to solve. Utility Model Content

[0034] The purpose, advantages and features of the present invention will be illustrated and explained through the non-limiting description of the following preferred embodiments. These embodiments are only typical examples of the application of the technical solution of the present invention, and any technical solution formed by equivalent replacement or equivalent transformation falls within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.

[0035] In the description of the scheme, it should be noted that the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "front", "back", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside" and the like indicate directions or positional relationships based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of description and simplified description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present utility model. In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. Moreover, in the description of the scheme, with the operator as a reference, the direction close to the operator is the proximal end, and the direction away from the operator is the distal end.

[0036] A thin plate fastening and forming device is arranged below the press machine 9 and connected to the press rod 91 of the press machine 9. Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a thin plate fastening and forming device at least includes a puncture module 1, specifically, the puncture module 1 includes an upper puncture component 11 and a lower puncture component 12 arranged relatively. Among them, the upper puncture component 11 at least includes a puncture block 111 arranged on the lower surface of the fixed plate 110. The lower puncture component 12 at least includes a lower puncture mold 121 arranged above the base 120. The lower puncture mold 121 is formed with a puncture hole 1210 for the puncture block 111 to penetrate; the press drives the puncture block 111 to move downward until the puncture block 111 penetrates the two layers of thin plates and is located in the puncture hole 1210, so that the two layers of thin plates form a cut tongue.

[0037] Further, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the upper puncture assembly 11 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 110, and an inverted T-shaped support rod seat 100 is screwed to the upper surface of the fixing plate 110, and bolts connected to the pressure rod are evenly distributed on the periphery of the columnar part of the support rod seat 100, so that the two can be detachably connected.

[0038] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the lower surface of the fixing plate 110 is fixedly connected to a puncturing upper template 112 , and the puncturing block 111 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the puncturing upper template 112 .

[0039] Furthermore, the piercing block 111 is vertically arranged with respect to the piercing upper template 112. Figures 2 to 3 The avoidance space 1110 is shown, and the avoidance space 1110 is arranged in the center along the width direction of the puncture block 111. The width of the puncture blocks 111 located on both sides of the avoidance space 1110 is smaller than the width of the puncture hole 1210, and the side wall of the puncture block 111 away from the avoidance space 1110 is located on the same axis as the inner wall of the puncture hole 1210. The puncture block 111 is set smaller than the inner diameter of the puncture hole 1210, and the outer wall of the puncture block 111 is fitted with the inner wall of the puncture hole 1210, which can ensure that the cut tongue formed by the thin plate during the puncture process will be located between the inner wall of the puncture block 111 and the puncture hole 1210; and the cut tongues formed by puncturing the same puncture block 111 are arranged oppositely.

[0040] like Figures 2 to 3As shown, the puncture upper template 112 is connected to the puncture plate 114 through the guide column 113; the puncture block 111 passes through the puncture plate 114. The puncture upper template 112 and the puncture plate 114 can be stably connected by the guide column 113 to enhance the connection stability. In addition, when the puncture module 1 is working, the guide column 113 is forced to shrink; when the puncture module 1 completes the work, the guide column 113 is gradually reset. The guide column 113 is designed to be retractable, which facilitates the puncture block 111 to pass through the puncture plate 114, and after the puncture is completed and the press 9 is closed to form a neutral state, the guide column 113 drives the fixed plate 110 and the puncture block 111 to gradually reset, so as to reduce the driving energy required by the press.

[0041] The upper part of the base 120 is connected to the lower piercing mold 121 through a support platform 122. Further, in order to enhance the connection stability between the upper piercing assembly 11 and the lower piercing assembly 12, the present application preferably connects a guide shaft 102 between the support platform 122 and the fixing plate 110. The guide shaft 102 can ensure the connection stability of the two and also ensure the coaxiality of the upper piercing assembly 11 with the lower piercing assembly 12 during the lifting process, thereby ensuring that the piercing block 111 can effectively and quickly pierce the thin plate.

[0042] like Figure 5 As shown, a thin plate fastening and forming device also includes a flattening module 2. Specifically, as Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the flattening module 2 includes an upper flattening assembly 21 and a lower flattening assembly 22 which are arranged relatively to each other; wherein, the upper flattening assembly 21 at least includes a flattening block 211 arranged below the fixed block 210. The lower flattening assembly 22 at least includes a lower flattening seat 221 arranged above the base 220. The press drives the flattening block 211 to move downward until the flattening block 211, the two layers of thin plates and the main body of the lower flattening seat 221 abut against each other, so that the cut tongue on the thin plate fits the plate surface.

[0043] Further, such as Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the fixed block 210 is connected to the pressure rod 91 through the support rod seat 100. Specifically, the support rod seat 100 is connected to the outer surface of the pressure rod 91 through bolts around it, so as to realize a reliable connection between the fixed block 210 and the pressure rod 91. The lower part of the fixed block 210 is connected to the flattening block 211 through the flattening seat 212; that is, the flattening seat 212 and the fixed block 210 are stably connected by the connection method disclosed in the prior art such as bolts, and the flattening seat 212 is stably connected to the flattening block 211. Figure 7As shown, the bottom surface of the flattening block 211 is a plane, through which a uniform and stable force is applied to the two layers of thin plates after the tongue is formed. When the press 9 drives the fixing block 210 and drives the flattening block 211 to descend to a certain position, the tongue will be flattened to achieve a fastening connection between the two layers of thin plates. According to the test, the connection force between the thin plates can be enhanced by about 20 times after processing using this application.

[0044] In addition, in the present application, the puncture block 111 and the flattening block 211 are preferably made of alloy steel; further, the puncture block 111 and the flattening block 211 are preferably made of carbon (C), silicon (Si), manganese (Mn), chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni), sulfur (S) and phosphorus (P); the percentage of each component is preferably carbon (C) 0.37-0.44, silicon (Si) 0.17-0.37, manganese 0.50-0.80, chromium (Cr) 0.80-1.10, nickel (Ni) ≤0.30, sulfur (S) ≤0.035 and phosphorus (P) ≤0.035. After testing experiments, it was found that the tensile strength of the puncture block 111 and the flattening block 211 is ≥980MPa, the yield strength is ≥785MPa, the elongation is ≥9%, the hardness is ≤217HB, and the impact toughness is ≥63J. Therefore, the piercing block 111 and the flattening block 211 have good flexibility and ductility, can bear heavy loads and are not easy to break, so that they are still reliable under high stress conditions when processing parts including thin plates. In addition, the piercing block 111 and the flattening block 211 also have good heat treatment performance, and their mechanical properties can be modified according to specific requirements.

[0045] like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the base 220 is connected to the lower pressing flat seat 221 through a support seat 222; the guide shaft 102 is arranged between the lower pressing flat seat 221 and the fixed block 210. The guide shaft 102 can realize a stable connection between the lower pressing flat seat 221 and the fixed block 210, and plays a guiding role in the process of the fixed block 210 moving relative to the lower pressing flat seat 221, ensuring the coaxiality of the two and the effectiveness of flattening the thin plate.

[0046] like Figure 6As shown, the upper surface of the lower flattening seat 221 is provided with a wear-resistant block 223, and the wear-resistant block 223 is located below the flattening block 211, and in the present application, it is preferred that each flattening block 211 corresponds to two wear-resistant blocks 223; the upper surfaces of a group of wear-resistant blocks 223 are relatively inclined. By relatively tilting the upper surfaces of the wear-resistant blocks 223, it can be ensured that when the cut tongue is flattened, the cut tongue will be relatively bent, and the cut tongue is placed to bend toward the position of the puncture hole, thereby achieving a reliable connection between the two thin plates. In the present application, it is preferred that the wear-resistant block 223 is made of cemented carbide material. Since cemented carbide is an alloy material made of hard compounds of refractory metals and bonding metals through powder metallurgy technology, it has a series of excellent properties such as high hardness, wear resistance, good strength and toughness, heat resistance and corrosion resistance. In particular, its high hardness and wear resistance remain basically unchanged even at a temperature of 500°C, and it still has a very high hardness at 1000°C, so its service life is long. Placing it on the lower flattening seat 221 in conjunction with the flattening block 211 can ensure effective flattening of the cut tongue while also protecting the lower flattening seat 221, thereby extending the service life of the overall grasping device.

[0047] There are many implementation methods of the utility model, and all technical solutions formed by equivalent transformation or equivalent transformation fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
