Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of sheet metal processing, and in particular to a corner post bending and forming production line. Background Art
[0002] When producing corner posts, they are usually formed from metal sheets after steps such as chamfering and bending. Therefore, a chamfering machine and a bending machine are required to perform multiple chamfering and bending operations on the metal sheet to form the corner post. Throughout the process, the workpiece needs to be continuously transferred to utilize different equipment such as the chamfering machine and the bending machine for different processing operations. During the transfer process, workers also need to wait to move the workpiece from the previous equipment to the next equipment. The entire production and processing process has low efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To improve the above problems, this application provides a corner post bending and forming production line.
[0004] A corner post bending and forming production line provided by this application adopts the following technical solutions:
[0005] A corner post bending and forming production line includes a sheet metal rack for storing sheets, and a sheet feeding member is provided inside the sheet metal rack for conveying the sheets.
[0006] A bending station is connected to the sheet metal rack, and a bending seat with a bending groove is provided on the bending station.
[0007] A stamping member is connected to the sheet metal rack and is located directly above the bending station, and the stamping end fits with the bending groove.
[0008] A flipping station is provided with a receiving rack and a rotatable flipping rack.
[0009] A manipulator is located on one side of the flipping station, and the conveying range of the manipulator includes the sheet metal rack and the flipping station.
[0010] A finished product table is located between the sheet metal rack and the flipping station for temporarily placing the formed corner posts.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solutions, the sheet feeding member takes out the sheets on the sheet metal rack and places them on the bending station. The stamping end of the stamping member presses down the sheet through the bending groove, causing the sheet to bend. The manipulator places the bent sheet at the flipping station, and the flipping station flips the sheet so that the other side of the sheet can be bent. The manipulator then moves the flipped sheet to the bending station for bending. Finally, the bent and formed sheet is moved to the finished product table by the manipulator. At the same time, the bending station and the flipping station can operate synchronously, thereby accelerating the forming efficiency of the corner post.
[0012] Optionally, a guide rail is provided at the bending station.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, when the material placing part places the plate, it can be placed directly on the guide rail, and the plate can be moved along the guide rail by pushing the first pushing part and the second pushing part, thereby ensuring that the plate has sufficient support effect and preventing the plate from falling from the bending station or shifting its position.
[0014] Optionally, the finished product platform is further provided with a first pushing member, and a pushing end of the first pushing member and the guide rail are located on the same horizontal plane.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the function of the first pushing member is to push the plate located on the bending station toward the plate rack, so that the position of the plate changes, which is used to adjust the bending position of the plate to ensure the accuracy of the bending position, and at the same time enable the plate to be bent multiple times and at multiple points.
[0016] Optionally, the first pushing member is provided with a pushing rod extending toward the bending station, and the number of the pushing rods is at least two.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the push rod can reduce the contact with the plate, avoiding scratches on the surface of the plate, and at least two push rods can improve the stability of pushing.
[0018] Optionally, the sheet material rack is further provided with a second pushing member, and a pushing end of the second pushing member and the guide rail are located on the same horizontal plane.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the function of the second pushing member is to cooperate with the first pushing member to push the plate located on the bending station toward the plate rack, so that the position of the plate that has been pushed too much by the first pushing member is pushed back to the specified position, and at the same time, the bending position of the plate is adjusted to improve the bending accuracy.
[0020] Optionally, a buffer member is provided between the first pushing member and the bending station and between the bending station and the sheet rack.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the function of the buffer is that when the stamping end of the stamping part is separated from the plate after bending, the plate will lose pressure and fall to the side with heavier weight after bending. Therefore, when the stamping end of the stamping part is separated from the plate, the buffer extends, so that the buffer is against the surface of the plate, and then the buffer descends, so that the plate gradually returns to the guide rail, ensuring the accurate position of the plate.
[0022] Optionally, the manipulator is provided with a pneumatic suction cup.
[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the starting suction cup can adsorb the smooth surface of the plate to transport the plate. Compared with the direct clamping of the manipulator, it can effectively protect the surface of the plate and avoid damage to the plate during clamping.
[0024] Optionally, the receiving frame is rotatably connected to the flipping station.
[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, when both the receiving frame and the flipping frame are rotatable, during the flipping process of the plate, the span between the receiving frame and the flipping frame is reduced to avoid the plate from falling and shifting in position.
[0026] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0027] 1. The feeding member takes out the plate on the plate rack and places it on the bending station. The stamping end of the stamping member presses down the plate through the bending groove, causing the plate to bend. The manipulator places the bent plate at the flipping station, and the flipping station flips the plate so that the other side of the plate can be bent. The manipulator then moves the flipped plate to the bending station for bending. Finally, the bent plate is moved to the finished product table by the manipulator. At the same time, the bending station and the flipping station can operate synchronously, thereby accelerating the forming efficiency of the corner post;
[0028] 2. The function of the first pushing member is to push the plate located on the bending station towards the plate rack, changing the position of the plate, for adjusting the bending position of the plate, ensuring the accuracy of the bending position, and enabling the plate to be bent multiple times at multiple points;
[0029] 3. The pushing rod can reduce contact with the plate, avoid scratches on the surface of the plate, and at the same time, at least two pushing rods can improve the stability of pushing;
[0030] 4. The function of the second pushing member is to cooperate with the first pushing member to push the plate located on the bending station towards the plate rack, pushing back the position of the plate that has been pushed too much by the first pushing member to the specified position, and at the same time adjusting the bending position of the plate to improve the accuracy of bending.

[0040] The following will further elaborate on this application in conjunction with the attached Figure 1 - attached Figure 3 drawings to provide a more detailed description of this application.
[0041] An embodiment of this application discloses a production line for bending and forming corner columns.
[0042] A production line for bending and forming corner columns, where the corner column forming material is a metal sheet, which is bent and formed.
[0043] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 as shown, it includes a sheet metal rack 1 that provides storage for the sheets, and a sheet feeding member 11 is provided inside the sheet metal rack 1 to provide the conveyance of the sheets. Before the production line starts production, the metal sheets need to be placed on the sheet metal rack 1, and then through the sheet feeding member 11, the sheets are conveyed one by one. The sheet metal rack 1 can adopt a vertical rack structure, and the sheet feeding member 11 can adopt a moving suction cup. A cylinder is arranged on the surface of the moving suction cup, and the moving suction cup is driven by the cylinder to move on the sheet metal rack 1 to convey the sheets.
[0044] A bending station 2, which is connected to the sheet metal rack 1, and a bending seat 21 with a bending groove is provided on the bending station 2. The bending station 2 provides a placement for the sheets during the bending step. When the sheet feeding member 11 takes out the sheet from the sheet metal rack 1, it is placed on the bending station 2, and the bending groove is the crease of the sheet.
[0045] A stamping member 3, which is connected to the sheet metal rack 1 and is located directly above the bending station 2. The stamping end fits the bending groove. The stamping member 3 can adopt a stamping machine, the stamping end is a stamping plate, and the bottom of the stamping plate is a bending tip. The size and shape of the bending tip are consistent with the size and groove type of the bending groove, so that the bending tip can just be embedded in the bending groove.
[0046] When the sheet is placed at the bending station 2 through the sheet feeding member 11, the stamping end of the stamping member 3 descends and presses into the bending groove, so that the sheet is pressed into the bending groove to form a crease, and the bending angle is determined by the pressing force of the stamping member 3.
[0047] A flipping station 4, which is located on the side of the bending station 2 away from the sheet metal rack 1. Its main function is to flip the sheet after one-time bending to perform multi-directional bending to finally form a corner column.
[0048] A receiving rack 41 and a rotatable flipping rack 42 are provided on the flipping station 4. The flipping rack 42 can flip towards the receiving rack 41. Therefore, when the sheet is on the flipping rack 42, the flipping rack 42 rotates towards the receiving rack 41, so that the sheet on the flipping rack 42 is flipped onto the receiving rack 41 to switch the bending surface of the sheet.
[0049] The manipulator 5 is located on one side of the flipping station 4, and the conveying range of the manipulator 5 includes the sheet material rack 1 and the flipping station 4. After the sheet material at the bending station 2 is bent, the manipulator 5 is used to clamp and transport the bent sheet material to the flipping station 4. After the sheet material is flipped by the flipping station 4, the manipulator 5 then moves the sheet material to the bending station 2 to bend the other side of the sheet material, resulting in the formation of the corner post.
[0050] The finished product table 6 is located between the sheet material rack 1 and the flipping station 4 for temporarily placing the formed corner posts. After the sheet material is bent into a corner post, the manipulator 5 places the corner post on the finished product table 6 for temporary placement. At the same time, the bending and flipping steps are carried out synchronously at other stations, that is, the bending station 2 and the flipping station 4 can operate synchronously, thereby improving the forming efficiency of the corner post.
[0051] Specifically, the feeding part 11 takes out the sheet material on the sheet material rack 1 and places it on the bending station 2. The stamping end of the stamping part 3 presses down the sheet material through the bending groove to bend the sheet material. The manipulator 5 places the bent sheet material at the flipping station 4. The flipping station 4 flips the sheet material so that the other side of the sheet material can be bent. The manipulator 5 then moves the flipped sheet material to the bending station 2 for bending. Finally, the bent sheet material is moved to the finished product table 6 by the manipulator 5. At the same time, the bending station 2 and the flipping station 4 can operate synchronously, thereby improving the forming efficiency of the corner post.
[0052] Among them, the receiving frame 41 is rotatably connected to the flipping station 4. The receiving frame 41 and the flipping frame 42 can each be provided with inclined telescopic cylinders and are hinged to the receiving frame 41 or the flipping frame 42 through the telescopic cylinders. When the telescopic cylinders extend or retract, the receiving frame 41 or the flipping frame 42 is pulled to rotate. A rotating motor and a rotating shaft can also be used. The receiving frame 41 or the flipping frame 42 is installed on the rotating shaft, and the rotating motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate to make the receiving frame 41 or the flipping frame 42 rotate. When both the receiving frame 41 and the flipping frame 42 can rotate, during the flipping process of the sheet material, the span between the receiving frame 41 and the flipping frame 42 is reduced to prevent the sheet material from falling and shifting in position.
[0053] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 or Figure 3 As shown, the finished product table 6 is further provided with a first pushing member 61. The pushing end of the first pushing member 61 is on the same horizontal plane as the guide rail 22. The first pushing member 61 can adopt a pushing frame and a pushing driving element. The pushing driving element can adopt any components such as a cylinder or an electric push rod. The function of the first pushing member 61 is to push the sheet material on the bending station 2 towards the sheet material rack 1, so that the position of the sheet material changes, which is used to adjust the bending position of the sheet material, ensure the accuracy of the bending position, and at the same time enable the sheet material to be bent multiple times at multiple points.
[0054] Among them, a pushing rod 611 extending towards the bending station 2 is provided on the first pushing member 61, and the number of the pushing rods 611 is at least two. A rubber pad is provided at one end of the pushing rod 611 close to the bending station 2. Taking two pushing rods 611 as an example, the pushing rods 611 can reduce the contact with the plate, avoid scratches on the surface of the plate, and at the same time use the soft material of the rubber pad to reduce the rigid contact between the pushing rods 611 and the plate, ensuring the integrity of the plate during the pushing process.
[0055] Further, referring to Figure 3 As shown, the plate rack 1 is further provided with a second pushing member 12, and the pushing end of the second pushing member 12 is on the same horizontal plane as the guide rail 22, and the pushing direction is towards the first pushing member 61. The second pushing member 12 is similar to the first pushing member 61, and any components such as a cylinder or an electric push rod can be used. The function of the second pushing member 12 is to cooperate with the first pushing member 61 to push the plate located on the bending station 2 towards the plate rack 1, so that the position of the plate that has been pushed too much by the first pushing member 61 is pushed back to the specified position, and at the same time to adjust the bending position of the plate and improve the bending accuracy.
[0056] Among them, a rubber pad can also be provided at the pushing end of the second pushing member 12 to reduce the rigid contact with the plate and protect the integrity of the plate.
[0057] Even further, referring to Figure 2 or Figure 3 As shown, a guide rail 22 is provided at the bending station 2, and the height of the guide rail 22 is the same as the notch of the bending groove. When the feeding member 11 places the plate, it can be directly placed at the guide rail 22. Through the pushing of the first pushing member 61 and the second pushing member 12, the plate can move along the guide rail 22, ensuring sufficient support for the plate and preventing the plate from falling off the bending station 2 or shifting in position.
[0058] Still further, referring to Figure 3 As shown, buffer members 7 are provided between the first pushing member 61 and the bending station 2 and between the bending station 2 and the plate rack 1. The buffer members 7 can be cylinders, and buffer pads are provided on the cylinders. The buffer pads can be made of materials such as rubber or sponge. The function of the buffer members 7 is that when the punching end of the punched part 3 is separated from the plate after bending, the plate will lose pressure and fall to the heavier side after bending. To avoid incorrect positioning of the plate during the fall, making it impossible for the first pushing member 61 and the second pushing member 12 to accurately push, when the punching end of the punched part 3 is separated from the plate, the buffer members 7 extend, so that the buffer members 7 abut against the surface of the plate, and then the buffer members 7 descend, causing the plate to gradually return to the guide rail 22, ensuring the accurate position of the plate.
[0059] Among them, the buffer member 7 can also, during the process of the stamping member 3 bending the sheet, as the stamping member 3 presses down, the position of the sheet will continuously change. The buffer member 7 can extend to assist in pushing the sheet to move or bend, so as to ensure the stable position of the sheet during bending.
[0060] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 As shown, the manipulator 5 is provided with a pneumatic suction cup 51. Starting the suction cup can adsorb the smooth surface of the sheet to transport the sheet. Compared with the direct clamping of the manipulator 5, it can effectively protect the surface of the sheet and avoid damage to the sheet during clamping.
[0061] Among them, a method for bending a sheet is also provided. Using the above-mentioned corner post bending and forming production line, specifically, the steps are as follows: The corner post formed by bending the sheet requires a relatively large number of bending times. The sheet is moved to the bending station 2 by the second pusher 12 and pushed until the first bending point of the sheet is butted against the bending groove. The stamping member 3 performs a pressing operation. After the pressing is completed, the buffer member 7 assists in dropping the pressed sheet so that it drops in a fixed posture. Then, the sheet is moved to the second bending point by the first pusher 61 or the second pusher 12 for secondary pressing. The manipulator 5 transfers the sheet after secondary pressing from the bending station 2 to the flipping station 4. The flipping station 4 flips the sheet after secondary pressing. While flipping, the feeding member 11 places a new steel plate into the bending station 2. The flipping and bending are carried out synchronously.
[0062] During the flipping and bending process, the manipulator 5 synchronously moves the previously formed corner post placed on the finished product table 6 to the collection point. Subsequently, the manipulator 5 moves the next sheet after secondary pressing to the flipping station 4 and moves the sheet that has been flipped at the flipping station 4 to the bending station 2. The sheet is moved to the third bending point for bending through the first pusher 61 and the second pusher 12. After the bending is completed, it is moved to the fourth bending point for the fourth bending and the fifth bending point for the fifth bending in sequence through the first pusher 61 and the second pusher 12. After the overall bending is completed, the corner post is formed. The manipulator 5 picks up the corner post and places it on the finished product table 6 for temporary storage, and then switches the direction of the manipulator 5 to take out the corner post on the finished product table 6 and place it at the collection point.
[0063] The flipping station 4 flips the sheet, so that the sheet does not need to use a chamfering machine for chamfering. By using the first pusher 61 and the second pusher 12 to change the bending points multiple times and performing multi-point and multi-time bending, the corner post can also be formed, reducing costs and forming steps and improving production efficiency.
[0064] The embodiments of this specific implementation manner are all preferred embodiments of this application, and do not limit the protection scope of this application accordingly. The same parts are denoted by the same reference numerals. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of this application should be covered within the protection scope of this application.
