Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of machining equipment, and particularly relates to an automatic blanking device for metal thin plates. Background Art

[0002] An iron sheet barrel is a common container in life, which has the advantages of high strength and good sealing performance, and can be used as the basic packaging for liquid products such as paint, coating, and engine oil. The production process of the iron sheet barrel generally includes production processes such as barrel body cutting, barrel lid stamping, composite ring stamping, rounding, spot welding, seam welding, ring ribbing, flanging, necking, pipe rolling, edge rolling, dot ladder hand, hoop body cutting, hoop ear spot welding, handle spot welding, accessory assembly, closer spot welding, and final assembly inspection.

[0003] Before the barrel body plate of the iron sheet barrel is rounded, it needs to be trimmed by a trimming machine to ensure that the height of the barrel body is neat after rounding. In the existing feeding device of the trimming machine, when feeding, the material tray is simply placed on the roller frame, and the tray is sent to the lifting frame through the roller, the material tray is lifted to the feeding position through the lifting frame, and finally feeding is carried out through the suction cup frame. However, since the existing suction cup frame can only move up and down and back and forth, although it can meet the feeding work, due to the relatively tight stacking and light self-weight of the metal thin plates, when the suction cup frame sucks up the plates, multiple layers of plates will be sucked together due to the negative pressure vacuum effect between the plates and be lifted together by the suction cup frame. The existing solution is to manually pad up one corner of the topmost plate before the suction cup frame works, so that air can enter between the plates to break the negative pressure state. Content of the Utility Model

[0025] Referring to Figures 1-4 , the embodiment of the present utility model provides an automatic sheet metal blanking device, which includes a feeding rack 1, a top driving box 2 and a lifting rack 3. A top driving box 2 is fixedly connected above the feeding rack 1. Four chains are connected to the lifting rack 3 at the four corners of the bottom of the top driving box 2. One end of the feeding rack 1 is rotatably connected with a rotating support rod 11. Two connecting plates 4 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the top driving box 2 near one end of the rotating support rod 11. Both ends of two transverse sliding rods 5 are fixedly connected to the corresponding connecting plates 4. Two transverse sliding rods 5 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the top driving box 2 through the connecting plates 4. Both ends of the two transverse sliding rods 5 are slidably connected with transverse sliding seats 6. Transverse limiters 7 are fixedly connected to the bottoms of the two transverse sliding seats 6. Longitudinal sliding rods 8 are fixedly connected to both sides above the feeding rack 1. The two longitudinal sliding rods 8 respectively pass through the corresponding longitudinal sliding seats 9 and are slidably connected with the corresponding longitudinal sliding seats 9. Limiting knobs 10 are arranged at positions corresponding to the longitudinal sliding rods 8 above the two longitudinal sliding seats 9. A transverse support rod 15 is fixedly connected to the inner sides of the two longitudinal sliding seats 9. Longitudinal limiters 20 are fixedly connected to both ends of the transverse support rod 15. A top rod 16 is fixedly connected to the middle of the transverse support rod 15. A pressure sensor 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the top rod 16. Angle-lifting cylinders 18 are arranged at one end of the transverse support rod 15 outside the two longitudinal limiters 20. The two angle-lifting cylinders 18 are respectively fixed to the lower side of the transverse support rod 15 near the rotating support rod 11 through cylinder fixing seats. The two angle-lifting cylinders 18 arranged below the transverse support rod 15, in cooperation with the top rod 16 and the pressure sensor 17 in the middle, can, before feeding, use the pressure sensor 17 to press the middle position of the edge of the sheet, and then, under the control of the controller, suck the two corners of the sheet through the suction cups 19 of the angle-lifting cylinders 18, and then make the two corners of the sheet warp upward by the reset of the cylinders, directly destroying the adsorption state between the edges of the sheet. When it falls rapidly again, waves spreading to the other end can be formed, completely destroying the negative pressure adsorption state between the whole sheet.

[0026] One end of the lower side of the top drive box 2 near one end of the rotating support rod 11 is rotatably connected with a feeding air cylinder 12. A rotating crank 13 is fixedly connected to the position of the rotating support rod 11 corresponding to the feeding air cylinder 12.

After the adsorption state of the plate is damaged, the other end of the plate can be lifted by the three blanking air cylinders 9, and then the rotating support rod 11 is driven to rotate by the feeding air cylinder 12, so that the three fixed on the rotating support rod 11, and then through the swinging of the three blanking air cylinders 9, the plate is fed to the feeding port of the edge trimming machine to complete the automatic processing.

[0027] Working principle: When the utility model is working, the two corner-lifting air cylinders 18 arranged below the transverse support rod 15, in cooperation with the top rod 16 and the pressure sensor 17 in the middle, can, before feeding, use the pressure sensor 17 to press the middle position of the edge of the plate, and then, under the control of the controller, suck the two corners of the plate through the suction cups 19 of the corner-lifting air cylinders 18, and then make the two corners of the plate warp upward by the reset of the air cylinders, directly damaging the adsorption state between the edges of the plate. When falling quickly again, waves spreading to the other end can be formed, completely damaging the negative pressure adsorption state between the whole plate. After the adsorption state of the plate is damaged, the other end of the plate can be lifted by the three blanking air cylinders 9 in another direction, and then the rotating support rod 11 is driven to rotate by the feeding air cylinder 12, so that the three fixed on the rotating support rod 11, and then through the swinging of the three blanking air cylinders 9, the plate is fed to the feeding port of the edge trimming machine to complete the automatic processing.
