Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of container fitting processing equipment, and particularly relates to a blank separating and cutting equipment for container corner fittings. Background Technique
[0002] Container corner fittings are an important part of containers, usually made of high-strength cast steel, with the characteristics of being firm and durable. These corner fittings are located at the eight corners of the container and play a role in connection and fixation. They are designed with standardized shapes and sizes to facilitate convenient and safe loading, unloading, and stacking during container transportation. There are holes on the corner fittings for connecting with lifting appliances, forklifts, and other loading and unloading equipment to realize the handling of containers. In addition, the corner fittings also play a role in bearing and protecting, dispersing pressure when the containers are stacked to prevent the box body from being damaged.
[0003] At present, there are some obvious problems and deficiencies in the manufacturing process of container corner fittings, especially in the case of using the four-in-one casting method. These problems mainly focus on the following aspects.
[0004] Firstly, the cutting process is time-consuming and laborious. In the four-in-one casting process, four corner fittings can be completed in one casting, and these four corner fittings are connected by connecting risers, as shown in Figure 3 . Since these connecting risers need to be cut in subsequent processes, the current cutting work is mainly completed manually. Manual cutting not only takes a lot of time and manpower, but also the labor intensity of workers is relatively large, and the working conditions are relatively harsh. Due to the limitations of manual operation, the cutting efficiency is low, directly affecting the overall efficiency and production rhythm of the production line.
[0005] Secondly, the cutting quality is unstable. Since the cutting process depends on manual operation, the cutting quality fluctuates. The differences in the operation levels and experience of workers make it difficult to ensure the cutting accuracy and consistency. Uneven cutting may lead to dimensional errors of the corner fittings, thereby affecting the assembly quality and structural strength of the container corner fittings. Inconsistent cutting quality may also increase the difficulty and cost of subsequent processing procedures.
[0006] In addition, there are safety hazards in manual cutting. The cutting process requires the use of cutting tools and equipment, which poses certain safety risks. Workers are easily injured by cutting tools during the operation process, and the noise and dust in the working environment also pose a threat to the health of workers. Enterprises need to invest additional resources in training workers and providing safety protection measures, increasing the production cost.
[0007] Finally, the overall production efficiency is low. Due to the inefficiency and quality fluctuations in the cutting process, the overall production cycle is extended, and the production efficiency is restricted. In a highly competitive market, an inefficient production process is difficult to meet customers' requirements for product delivery cycles and quality, thus affecting the competitiveness and market share of the enterprise.
[0008] In summary, the main problems existing in the current manufacturing process of container corner fittings include time-consuming and laborious cutting processes, unstable cutting quality, potential safety hazards, and low overall production efficiency. Solving these problems requires the introduction of automated cutting equipment to improve cutting quality and efficiency, thereby optimizing the production process and enhancing product quality and enterprise competitiveness. Summary of the Invention
[0009] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present utility model provides a container corner fitting blank separation and cutting equipment that solves the problems of low operating efficiency, time-consuming, and laborious cutting of multi-to-one container corner fitting blanks.
[0010] The present utility model is implemented as follows. A container corner fitting blank separation and cutting equipment is characterized by comprising a column, a hydraulic cylinder, a punch, and a table beam. The column is vertically arranged to form a vertical support frame. The hydraulic cylinder is installed on the column, and the hydraulic cylinder is provided with a vertically downward cylinder rod. The punch is installed on the cylinder rod. The table beam is arranged below the punch, and the two table beams are symmetrically arranged on both sides below the punch. The upper part of the table beam forms a support end face that horizontally extends out of the side of the column, and a slot is formed between the two table beams below the punch.
[0011] In the above technical solution, preferably, a pushing cylinder is provided on the side of the column. The pushing cylinder is installed on the table beam, and the pushing cylinder has a pushing cylinder rod that horizontally extends downward below the punch.
[0012] In the above technical solution, preferably, the punch includes two symmetrically arranged shearing edges.
[0013] In the above technical solution, preferably, guiding components are arranged on the left and right sides below the punch. The guiding components include two vertical guiding surfaces and guiding inclined surfaces located in front of the vertical guiding surfaces.
[0014] In the above technical solution, preferably, a sloping material guiding portion is provided at the lower part of the slot.
[0015] The present utility model proposes a container corner fitting blank separation and cutting equipment that utilizes the principle of hydraulic stamping and combines the feeding structure of four-in-one corner fitting blanks to achieve automated cutting and separation processing of four-in-one corner fittings. This innovative equipment can effectively solve existing problems and has many advantages and remarkable effects.
[0016] First, the equipment significantly improves the cutting efficiency. Through automated cutting and separation processing, a large amount of manual operation is eliminated, and the cutting speed is greatly increased. The hydraulic stamping technology is efficient and stable, and can complete the cutting tasks of multiple corner fittings in a short time, thus significantly shortening the production cycle and improving the overall efficiency of the production line.
[0017] Secondly, the cutting quality has been greatly improved. The principle of hydraulic stamping ensures the accuracy and consistency of each cutting operation, avoiding size errors and quality fluctuations that may occur during manual cutting. The automated equipment can precisely control the cutting position and force, ensuring that the cutting surface of each corner fitting is flat and smooth, thus improving the assembly quality and structural strength of the container corner fittings.
[0018] In addition, the equipment greatly reduces the labor intensity and safety risks. Automated cutting and separation processing replaces manual operation, and workers no longer need to perform heavy cutting work, significantly reducing the labor intensity. At the same time, the opportunity for workers to directly contact cutting tools and equipment is reduced, fundamentally reducing the risk of work-related injuries. The safety protection measures of the equipment further ensure the health and safety of operators.
[0019] The equipment also features excellent stability and reliability. The hydraulic stamping technology has stable performance and a long service life, and can work continuously under high load for a long time without affecting the cutting effect. The automated feeding structure ensures that the four-in-one corner fitting blanks can enter the cutting process smoothly and orderly, reducing equipment failures and downtime, and improving the stability of the production line.
[0020] Moreover, the equipment has high economic benefits. Although the initial investment is relatively high, the automated equipment significantly reduces the dependence on labor and lowers the long-term labor costs. At the same time, due to the improvement of cutting quality and efficiency, the scrap rate and rework costs are reduced, and the material utilization rate and production efficiency are improved. Overall, the introduction of this equipment can bring significant economic benefits to the enterprise.
[0021] Finally, the equipment has a good environmental protection effect. The automated cutting process reduces the dust and noise pollution generated during cutting, improves the working environment in the workshop, and is beneficial to the health of workers and the environmental protection image of the enterprise.
[0022] In summary, the container corner fitting blank separation and cutting equipment has significant advantages and effects in improving cutting efficiency, enhancing cutting quality, reducing labor intensity and safety risks, strengthening stability and reliability, increasing economic benefits, and improving environmental protection effects. The introduction of this equipment can comprehensively optimize the production process of container corner fittings and significantly enhance the competitiveness and market performance of the enterprise.

[0027] Aiming at the problems of low cutting operation efficiency, time-consuming and laborious for the current multi-to-one container corner fitting blank cutting, the present utility model particularly provides a container corner fitting blank separation and cutting equipment, which has significant advantages and effects in improving cutting efficiency, enhancing cutting quality, reducing labor intensity and safety risks, enhancing stability and reliability, improving economic benefits and improving environmental protection effects. In order to further illustrate the structure of the present utility model, the following details it in conjunction with the drawings:
[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 , a container corner fitting blank separation and cutting equipment, which is an intermediate process equipment used in the manufacturing process of container corner fittings. It includes a column 1, a hydraulic cylinder 2, a punch 3 and a table beam 4.
[0029] The column is arranged vertically to form a vertical support frame. The column is four vertical columns, forming a four-leg support frame, and a processing space is formed between the lower parts of the two symmetric left and right columns among the four columns.
[0030] The hydraulic cylinder is installed on the column, and the hydraulic cylinder is provided with a vertically downward cylinder rod. The hydraulic cylinder is installed on the upper part of the support frame, and the hydraulic cylinder is the power component of this equipment.
[0031] The punch is installed on the cylinder rod. The punch includes two symmetrically arranged left and right shearing edges. Specifically, the punch is the execution component for cutting the container corner fitting in this equipment, and the punch is fixed to the lower end of the cylinder rod of the hydraulic cylinder. The shearing edge realizes the action of shearing the riser part of the container corner fitting blank during the process of being driven downward by the hydraulic cylinder, and completes the separation of the container corner fitting blank into monomers.
[0032] The table beam is arranged below the punch. The two table beams are symmetrically arranged on both sides below the punch. The upper part of the table beam forms a supporting end face that extends horizontally and linearly to the side of the column. A slot 5 is formed between the two table beams and is located below the punch. Specifically, the table beam is a square steel beam. One end is welded to the inner side of the column, and the outer end is supported by a support block on the bottom surface to form a horizontally extending support beam. The upper end face of the square steel forms the supporting end face, and this supporting end face is used to support the blank of the container corner fitting.
[0033] Please refer to Figure 2 , a pushing cylinder 6 is arranged on the side of the column. The pushing cylinder is installed on the table beam. The pushing cylinder has a pushing cylinder rod that horizontally extends downward below the punch. The pushing cylinder is a hydraulic cylinder and is fixed to the table beam by bolts and nuts. The pushing cylinder rod is a functional component of the hydraulic cylinder. By the telescopic movement of the pushing cylinder rod, the blank of the container corner fitting supported on the table beam is pushed to move downward below the punch for feeding.
[0034] Guiding components are arranged on the left and right sides below the punch. The guiding components include two vertical guiding surfaces and a guiding inclined surface located in front of the vertical guiding surface. Specifically, the guiding components are guiding plates 7 welded to the inner side of the column. A flared guiding inclined surface is formed corresponding to the edge of the blank 9 of the container corner fitting for feeding. The pushed blank of the container corner fitting is pushed into the space between the two guiding plates through this flared opening and is located directly below the punch under the guiding action of the two guiding plates.
[0035] The blank of the container corner fitting pushed to directly below the punch is cut by the downward moving punch to form individual container corner fittings. The cut riser part falls into the slot. In this embodiment, a sloped material guiding part 8 is arranged at the lower part of the slot. The sloped material guiding part guides the fallen riser part to the other side of the column to avoid material accumulation below.
[0036] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
