Therefore, the above terms should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0033] It is to be understood that the term "one" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more", that is, in one embodiment, the number of an element may be one, while in another embodiment, the number of the element may be multiple, and the term "one" should not be understood as a limitation on the quantity.
[0034] like Figure 1-10 The utility model provides a short water pipe processing equipment, including a positioning device 2, a chamfering device 3, a first upsetting device 4, a second upsetting device 5 and a material frame 6 which are arranged in sequence, the positioning device 2 includes an inclined material channel 21, and a positioning block 22 arranged on one side of the bottom of the material channel 21, so that a positioning area 23 is formed between the positioning block 22 and the material channel 21, the short water pipe 7 is placed in the positioning area 23, and a positioning plate 24 is movably arranged on one side of the positioning area 23, and a positioning backer 25 is arranged on the other side of the positioning area 23, and the positioning plate 24 and the positioning backer 25 are arranged opposite to each other.
[0035] Specifically, the loading rack loads the short water pipe to one end of the material channel, and then the short water pipe rolls along the inclined material channel to one side of the positioning block, and the short water pipe is initially positioned by the positioning block, so that the short water pipe is stably placed in the positioning area, and then the positioning plate moves and pushes the short water pipe, so that one end of the short water pipe is against the positioning backer, and then the short water pipe is secondary positioned by the positioning backer to ensure the accuracy of the subsequent processing position of the short water pipe.
[0036] Among them, one side of the material channel is connected to the loading position of the loading rack, and the other side of the material channel forms a V-shaped groove with the positioning block. The V-shaped groove is the positioning area to ensure that the short water pipe is stably placed in the V-shaped groove. In addition, this scheme provides a cylinder on one side of the material channel, which controls the reciprocating movement of the positioning plate through the cylinder, thereby stably pushing the short water pipe to the positioning support.
[0037] Preferably, a through slot 26 is provided on the material channel 21 , and a material blocking plate 27 is movably disposed at the through slot 26 , so that when the front short water pipe 7 is placed in the positioning area 23 , the rear short water pipe 7 is blocked by the material blocking plate 27 .
[0038] Specifically, after the previous short water pipe rolls down to the positioning area, the material baffle plate rises to block the rolling position of the material channel, thereby ensuring that only one short water pipe is positioned in the positioning area; and after the previous short water pipe is positioned and grabbed by the robot, the material baffle plate descends and causes the next short water pipe to roll down.
[0039] Among them, a cylinder is arranged at the lower side of the material channel, and the lifting and lowering movement of the material baffle plate is controlled by the cylinder. At the same time, an in-place sensor can be arranged on one side of the positioning area to ensure that after the short water pipe enters the positioning area, the in-place sensor can prompt the material baffle plate to rise.
[0040] Preferably, there is a gap 28 between the positioning backing 25 and the side of the positioning area 23 .
[0041] Specifically, the manipulator can grab the short water pipe that has been positioned in the positioning area through the gap to improve the convenience and stability of grabbing the short water pipe.
[0042] Preferably, the chamfering device 3 includes a base 31 and chamfering mechanisms movably arranged on both sides of the base 31, and the chamfering mechanisms on both sides of the base 31 are arranged opposite to each other. A chamfering clamp 32 is arranged on the base 31, and the chamfering clamp 32 is located between the chamfering mechanisms on both sides of the base 31.
[0043] Specifically, the positioned short water pipe is grabbed by a robot and brought to the chamfering clamp for support and fixation. Subsequently, the chamfering mechanisms on both sides perform chamfering processing on both ends of the short water pipe in turn, so that the chamfers on both ends of the short water pipe can be processed in the same work station without the need for two processes, thus effectively avoiding the tedious transportation and positioning.
[0044] Among them, the chamfering clamp is basically consistent with the existing clamp structure, and it has two clamping blocks arranged opposite to each other, and the clamping or loosening of the two clamping blocks is controlled by a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder.
[0045] In a preferred embodiment of the present scheme, the chamfering mechanism includes a movably arranged cutting seat 33, a cutting knife rotatably arranged on the cutting seat 33 near the chamfering clamp 32, a protective cover 34 is arranged on the outer side of the cutting seat 33, and the protective cover 34 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the cutting knife.
[0046] Specifically, after the short water pipe is clamped in the chamfering clamp, the cutting seat in the chamfering mechanism moves along the base and drives the cutting knife to move closer to the end of the short water pipe, and then the short water pipe is chamfered by the cutting knife.
[0047] At the same time, due to the setting of the protective cover, when the cutting knife chamfers the short water pipe, the protective cover can block the waste chips generated during the chamfering process, so as to facilitate subsequent centralized cleaning.
[0048] Among them, a guide rail is arranged on the base, and a servo motor is arranged on one side of the base. The servo motor cooperates with the screw drive to control the cutting seat to move back and forth along the guide rail.
[0049] In one embodiment of the present scheme, the cutting knife can rotate circumferentially relative to the end of the short water pipe, and its rotation center is arranged colinearly with the axis of the short water pipe to ensure that the cutting knife can chamfer the end of the short water pipe along the circumferential direction, and the cutting knife can rotate by motor control.
[0050] Preferably, the second upsetting device 5 includes a movably arranged movable seat 51, an adjusting seat 52 movably mounted on the movable seat 51, a plurality of punches 53 are sequentially arranged on the adjusting seat 52, and a upsetting clamp 54 is arranged on one side of the movable seat 51, so that when the short water pipe 7 is placed on the upsetting clamp 54, one of the punches 53 performs upsetting processing on the end of the short water pipe 7.
[0051] Specifically, after the short water pipe is grasped and fixed to the upsetting clamp, the adjusting seat is moved and adjusted relative to the moving seat so that one of the punches is aligned with the pipe end of the short water pipe. Then the moving seat drives the overall structure to move, thereby driving the punch close to the short water pipe, and the pipe end of the short water pipe is upset by the punch. When different pipe end forming processes are performed on short water pipes of different specifications, the adjusting seat can be used to drive punches in different positions to align with the pipe end, thereby conveniently switching the processing forms of short water pipes of different specifications.
[0052] Among them, the moving seat and the adjusting seat are both controlled to move back and forth by a servo motor in cooperation with a screw drive; the punch can be fixed to the adjusting seat by bolts, etc. to ensure that the punch can be replaced.
[0053] In one embodiment of the present scheme, the method of using the upsetting head clamp is consistent with the existing clamp, and the upsetting head clamp has two upsetting head clamps arranged opposite to each other, and the two upsetting head clamps are controlled by a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder to clamp or release.
[0054] Preferably, a punching rod 55 is movably provided on one side of the heading clamp 54 , and an avoidance groove 56 is provided on the heading clamp 54 , and the avoidance groove 56 is correspondingly arranged to the punching rod 55 .
[0055] Specifically, after the upsetting of the short water pipe is completed, the punching rod is moved close to the pipe wall of the short water pipe, and the short water pipe is punched by the punching rod, so that the short water pipe does not need to be moved between the upsetting and punching processes, avoiding positioning problems during the movement process.
[0056] It is worth mentioning that an avoidance groove is provided on one of the heading clamps, which ensures that the two heading clamps can stably clamp the short water pipe while providing sufficient space for the punching rod through the processing of the avoidance groove.
[0057] In one embodiment of the present solution, the punching rod is controlled to move by an oil cylinder, and the oil cylinder ensures that the punching rod can perform punching processing on the pipe wall of the short water pipe.
[0058] Preferably, one of the punches 53 is connected to a core rod 57, and a through hole 58 is formed on the core rod 57, and the through hole 58 matches the punching rod 55, so that when the punching rod 55 punches the short water pipe 7, waste chips are retained in the through hole 58, and after the core rod 57 is detached from the short water pipe 7, the waste chips inside the through hole 58 are sucked out.
[0059] Specifically, after one of the punches performs upsetting processing on the short water pipe, the movable seat moves backward to drive the punch to detach from the short water pipe, and then the adjusting seat is adjusted and moved relative to the movable seat, and drives the punch with the core rod to align with the pipe end of the short water pipe, and then the movable seat moves again to make the punch press against the pipe end of the short water pipe, and the core rod extends into the inner side of the short water pipe, so that the core rod can support the inner wall of the short water pipe, and the punching rod punches the short water pipe at this time. Since a through hole is opened on the core rod, the punching rod will pass through the through hole position, and then while the core rod supports the short water pipe, the interference between the punching rod and the core rod is avoided.
[0060] At the same time, due to the setting of the through hole, during the process of the punching rod punching the short water pipe, the waste chips generated by punching will be retained in the through hole. After the core rod is separated from the short water pipe, the waste chips in the through hole are sucked out of the through hole through an external chip suction mechanism to ensure the cleanliness of subsequent product processing.
[0061] Among them, the external chip suction mechanism may include a telescopic blanking punch controlled by a cylinder and a chip suction tube connected to a negative pressure device, so that after the core rod is separated from the short water pipe, the blanking punch is pushed into the through hole from the side of the through hole and the waste chips are pushed out to the outside of the through hole. At this time, the chip suction tube generates negative pressure attraction, and then sucks the waste chips to the designated position.
[0062] Preferably, a guide groove 59 is opened on one side of the avoidance groove 56 , one end of the guide groove 59 faces the position to be punched of the short water pipe 7 , and the end of the punching rod 55 is movably installed in the guide groove 59 .
[0063] Specifically, when the punching rod performs punching processing on the short water pipe, the punching rod can be guided by the guide groove to improve the processing position accuracy of the punching rod.
[0064] It is worth mentioning that the first upsetting device and the second upsetting device in this scheme are the same in upsetting structure and upsetting processing method. Compared with the first upsetting device, the second upsetting device has additional punching rods, avoidance grooves and other structures for punching. Therefore, the way the first upsetting device performs upsetting processing on the other end of the short water pipe is the same as that of the second upsetting device, and will not be described in detail here.
[0065] When using the short water pipe processing equipment provided in this solution, the following steps can be adopted:
[0066] Step 1: The loading rack 1 sequentially loads the short water pipes 7 to the positioning device 2, and the positioning device 2 positions the single short water pipe 7;
[0067] Step 2: transport the positioned short water pipe 7 to the chamfering device 3, and chamfer the two ends of the short water pipe 7 synchronously through the chamfering device 3;
[0068] Step 3: transport the chamfered short water pipe 7 to the first upsetting device 4, and perform upsetting processing on one end of the short water pipe 7;
[0069] Step 4: swap the two ends of the short water pipe 7, and transport the short water pipe 7 to the second upsetting device 5, and simultaneously perform upsetting and punching processing on the other end of the short water pipe 7;
[0070] Step 5: transport the short water pipe 7 into the material frame 6.
[0071] Among them, after the short water pipe is loaded from the loading rack to the positioning device, it is transported to the chamfering device, the first upsetting device, the second upsetting device and the material frame in sequence by several manipulators to ensure the stability of the processing flow of the short water pipe. In this scheme, the same manipulator is used for transportation between two processes, so that several manipulators can synchronously control multiple short water pipes to perform synchronous processing between multiple processes to improve the processing efficiency of the short water pipes, and all manipulators are uniformly moved and installed on the transverse guide rail, so that all manipulators can be moved and transported along the transverse guide rail.
[0072] It is worth mentioning that the loading rack in this solution is the existing technology, and its loading method is consistent with the existing loading method, which will not be described in detail here.
[0073] The present utility model is not limited to the above-mentioned optimal implementation mode. Anyone can derive other various forms of products under the inspiration of the present utility model. However, no matter what changes are made in the shape or structure, all those having the same or similar technical solutions as the present application fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
