Specific embodiments
[0018] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0019] Please refer to Figures 1-3 , the present invention provides a technical solution: a central module of a flanging machine, including a rotary worktable 100, the rotary worktable 100 is installed on a base 200, a pair of support frames 300 are fixedly installed on the top of the base 200, and a mounting bracket 400 is detachably installed on the tops of the two support frames 300. A cylinder 410 is fixedly installed in the middle of the mounting bracket 400 through a cylinder seat 500. The telescopic end of the cylinder 410 penetrates through the mounting bracket 400 and is connected to a turntable 420. A pressing plate 430 is installed at the bottom of the turntable 420;
[0020] A plurality of infrared distance sensors 440 are also embedded at the bottom of the mounting bracket 400, and human proximity sensors 450 are installed on both sides of the mounting bracket 400.
[0021] Specifically, the rotary worktable 100 is installed on the base 200. The rotary worktable 100 can be used to support the disc workpiece to be flanged and processed, and at the same time provide the power for rotation. The cylinder 410 pushes the turntable 420 and the pressing plate 430 to move up and down through telescopic movement, so that the pressing plate 430 cooperates with the rotary worktable 100 to clamp or release the disc workpiece. When the rotary worktable 100 drives the clamped disc workpiece to rotate, the arranged turntable 420 can make the pressing plate 430 rotate together with the disc workpiece, ensuring that the flanging mechanism of the flanging machine can perform normal flanging processing on the disc workpiece;
[0022] A plurality of infrared distance sensors 440 are used to detect the distance between the disc workpiece and the pressing plate 430 to ensure accurate positioning. The installed human proximity sensors 450 are used to sense the approach of the operator, thereby improving the operation safety. When someone approaches, relevant safety protection measures can be triggered, and the PLC programmable logic controller 230 controls the rotary worktable 100 to stop rotating;
[0023] The two support frames 300 are detachably connected to the mounting frame 400, which is convenient for the maintenance and replacement of components of the central module, and effectively ensures the service life of the central module.
[0024] In this embodiment: A reduction motor 210 is installed inside the base 200, and the output shaft of the reduction motor 210 is detachably connected to the bottom sleeve of the rotary table 100.
[0025] Specifically, the reduction motor 210 is detachably connected to the bottom sleeve of the rotary table 100 through its output shaft, so that the rotary table 100 makes a smooth rotational movement driven by the reduction motor 210. The output speed of the reduction motor 210 can be adjusted through the PLC programmable controller 230, and then the rotational speed of the rotary table 100 can be controlled, so as to adapt to the processing requirements of different workpieces. The detachable connection method between the sleeve of the rotary table 100 and the output shaft of the reduction motor 210 makes the maintenance and replacement of the rotary table 100 more convenient.
[0026] In this embodiment: The turntable 420 is composed of a bearing sleeve and a flange plate. The bearing sleeve is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the cylinder 410, and the flange plate is detachably connected to the pressure plate 430 by screws.
[0027] Specifically, the bearing sleeve is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the cylinder 410 to ensure that the telescopic movement of the cylinder 410 can be accurately transmitted to the turntable 420. The flange plate is detachably connected to the pressure plate 430 by screws, so that the pressure plate 430 can be replaced or adjusted according to the requirements of different disc workpieces.
[0028] In this embodiment: The diameter of the pressure plate 430 is larger than the diameter of the rotary table 100, and the rotation axis of the pressure plate 430 and the rotation axis of the rotary table 100 are on the same straight line.
[0029] Specifically, the diameter of the pressure plate 430 is designed to be larger than the diameter of the rotary table 100, which can ensure that the pressure plate 430 can completely cover and press the disc workpiece on the rotary table 100. The rotation axis of the pressure plate 430 and the rotation axis of the rotary table 100 are on the same straight line, which can ensure that the disc workpiece remains stable during the processing process and will not have quality problems due to eccentricity or uneven pressure.
[0030] In this embodiment: When the pressure plate 430 is in the initial position, the distance between the pressure plate 430 and the rotary table 100 is greater than the height of the disc workpiece.
[0031] Specifically, when the pressure plate 430 is in the initial position, the distance between the pressure plate 430 and the rotary table 100 is designed to be greater than the height of the disc workpiece, ensuring that the pressure plate 430 does not apply pressure to the workpiece when the telescopic end of the cylinder 410 is not activated, so that the disc workpiece can be freely loaded or removed.
[0032] In this embodiment: The cylinder base 500 includes a frame-shaped frame 510. The top of the frame-shaped frame 510 is fixedly connected to the cylinder body of the cylinder 410. A bushing 520 with a bearing installed therein is installed at the bottom of the frame-shaped frame 510. The bushing 520 is sleeved outside the telescopic end of the cylinder 410, and the bottom of the bushing 520 is fixedly connected to the top end of the middle part of the mounting frame 400.
[0033] Specifically, the top of the frame-shaped frame 510 is fixedly connected to the cylinder body of the cylinder 410 to ensure the stable installation of the cylinder 410. The provided bushing 520 provides additional support for the telescopic end of the cylinder 410, and also reduces the friction and offset during the telescopic movement of the cylinder 410, ensuring the smooth operation of the cylinder 410.
[0034] In this embodiment: A control box 220 is also fixedly installed on the top side of the base 200. A PLC programmable controller 230 is installed inside the control box 220. An industrial control display screen 240 is installed on the door of the control box 220. The industrial control display screen 240, the infrared distance sensor 440, and the human body proximity sensor 450 are all electrically connected to the PLC programmable controller 230. The PLC programmable controller 230 is electrically connected to the gas solenoid valve of the cylinder 410 and the reduction motor 210. The PLC programmable controller 230 is also electrically connected to an external power supply.
[0035] Specifically, the PLC programmable controller 230 can be used to control the operation of the entire flanging machine. Specifically, it can control the opening and closing of the gas solenoid valve to achieve the telescopic control of the cylinder 410. At the same time, it can also control the reduction motor 210. The industrial control display screen 240 is installed on the door of the control box 220, which is convenient for the operator to monitor and adjust the operation parameters of the equipment in real time. The PLC programmable controller 230 is connected to the infrared distance sensor 440 and the human body proximity sensor 450 through cables to achieve real-time monitoring of the position of the disc workpiece and operation safety, so as to ensure the accuracy and safety of the processing process.
