[0025] The present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the utility model is a metal gasket extrusion molding robot, including a machine platform 1 and a frame 2 arranged on the machine platform 1, and also including a material holding chamber 3, a Y-axis module 4 for driving the material holding chamber 3 to move along the Y-axis direction of the machine platform 1, a forming component 5 movably arranged on the frame 2, a Z-axis module 6 for driving the forming component 5 to move along the Z-axis direction of the frame 2, and an X-axis module 7 for driving the Z-axis module 6 to move along the X-axis direction of the frame 2. The material holding chamber 3 is provided with a material holding trough 31 and a material suction hole 32 provided in the material holding trough 31. A holding hole 33 is opened in the middle of the material holding trough 31, and the forming component 5 protrudes into the holding hole 33. A vacuum generator 34 is provided on the outside of the material holding chamber 3, and the vacuum generator 34 is connected to the material suction hole 32.
[0027] During operation, a plurality of metal washers are placed into the material holding chamber 3 through an external feeding mechanism, so that the metal washers are placed flat in the material holding groove 31. Since one end of the vacuum generator 34 is connected to the external air pump, and the other end of the vacuum generator 34 is connected to the suction hole 32, when the external air pump is started, the vacuum generator 34 draws air through the suction hole 32, so that the suction hole 32 stably absorbs the main body of the metal washer, and at the same time, multiple legs of the metal washer are exposed to the receiving hole 33. The Y-axis module 4 drives the material holding chamber 3 to move along the Y-axis direction of the machine 1, thereby realizing the forward and backward movement of the material holding chamber 3 relative to the machine 1, so as to facilitate the material holding chamber 3 to be filled. The mold assembly 5 is accurately moved to the position of the mold assembly 5. The Z-axis module 6 drives the mold assembly 5 to move along the Z-axis direction of the frame 2, and the X-axis module 7 drives the Z-axis module 6 to move along the X-axis direction of the frame 2, thereby driving the mold assembly 5 to move up and down and left and right relative to the frame 2, facilitating the mold assembly 5 to be accurately inserted downward into the receiving hole 33. The multiple legs of the metal washer are bent and formed under the extrusion generated during the process of inserting the mold assembly 5 into the receiving hole 33, so that the multiple legs of the metal washer are bent downward by 90 degrees relative to the main body of the metal washer. The above operation is repeated in a cycle to complete the bending and forming of multiple metal washers. The utility model realizes the automated bending and forming of metal washers, meets the needs of batch processing, and improves the efficiency and quality of bending processing.
[0028] The forming assembly 5 of this embodiment includes a movable frame 51, a pressure rod 52 rotatably arranged on the movable frame 51, and a driving motor 53 drivingly connected to the pressure rod 52. The output end of the driving motor 53 is drivingly connected to a driving wheel 54, and the pressure rod 52 is provided with a driven wheel 55. A transmission belt 56 is connected between the driving wheel 54 and the driven wheel 55. The end of the pressure rod 52 away from the driving motor 53 is provided with a semicircular forming strip 57. Specifically, after the pressure rod 52 is inserted into the accommodating hole 33 through the semicircular forming strip 57 and the multiple legs on one side of the metal washer are bent and formed, the Z-axis module 6 drives the semicircular forming strip 57 to move upward through the movable frame 51 and is pulled out of the accommodating hole 33. Then the driving motor 53 drives the driving wheel 54 to rotate. The rotating driving wheel 54 drives the driven wheel 55 to rotate through the transmission belt 56. Since the driven wheel 55 is sleeved on the outside of the pressure rod 52, it drives the pressure rod 52 to rotate 180 degrees. Then the Z-axis module 6 drives the semicircular forming strip 57 downward through the movable frame 51. The semicircular forming strip 57 is inserted into the accommodating hole 33 and the multiple legs on the other side of the metal washer are bent and formed, so that the semicircular forming strip 57 performs two insertion and bending operations on the circular metal washer, thereby completing the bending and forming of all the legs of the metal washer.
[0029] The end of the mobile frame 51 of this embodiment is provided with a first mounting plate 58 and a second mounting plate 59 spaced apart from the first mounting plate 58. The first mounting plate 58 and the second mounting plate 59 are both arranged perpendicular to the mobile frame 51. The first mounting plate 58 is provided with a first bearing 510, and the second mounting plate 59 is provided with a second bearing 511. The first bearing 510 and the second bearing 511 are both sleeved on the outside of the pressure rod 52. Specifically, the first mounting plate 58 and the second mounting plate 59 are both arranged perpendicular to the mobile frame 51, and the first mounting plate 58 and the second mounting plate 59 are spaced apart and arranged in parallel. The first mounting plate 58 is provided with a first bearing 510, and the second mounting plate 59 is provided with a second bearing 511, so that the first bearing 510 and the second bearing 511 are both sleeved on the outside of the pressure rod 52, further strengthening the load-bearing and supporting performance of the pressure rod 52, effectively reducing the rotational friction resistance of the pressure rod 52, and ensuring its rotation accuracy.
[0030] In this embodiment, a plurality of suction holes 32 are provided, and the plurality of suction holes 32 are arranged around the circumference of the material storage tank 31. The plurality of material storage tanks 31 are provided, and the plurality of material storage tanks 31 are arranged in a rectangular array in the material storage chamber 3. Specifically, the plurality of suction holes 32 are arranged around the circumference of the material storage tank 31, and the vacuum generator 34 is connected to the suction holes 32, thereby increasing the suction area for the metal gasket and improving the stability of the metal gasket in the material storage tank 31. In addition, the plurality of material storage tanks 31 are arranged in a rectangular array in the material storage chamber 3, further increasing the material loading capacity of the material storage chamber 3 to meet the needs of batch processing.
[0031] The machine 1 of this embodiment is equipped with a control panel 11 and a switch 12. The control panel 11 is equipped with a display screen 13 and control buttons 14. Specifically, pressing the switch 12 effectively turns the control panel 11 on or off. The corresponding operating parameter changes are intuitively displayed on the display screen 13, and the operating conditions of various working components are adjusted and controlled accordingly using the control buttons 14, thus achieving a high level of intelligence.
