Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of in-mold reverse tapping devices, in particular to an in-mold reverse tapping device. Background Art

[0002] In-mold tapping machines, also known as in-mold threading machines, are used in conjunction with progressive dies to rapidly process screw holes during the stamping process of hardware parts. Currently the most advanced screw hole forming process for hardware parts, this machine breaks away from traditional processing methods by integrating traditional stamping and tapping techniques to form the holes directly within the mold. Because in-mold tapping effectively avoids secondary operations (stamping followed by tapping), production efficiency is greatly improved, making it particularly suitable for use in progressive, progressive, and precision dies.

[0003] Currently available tapping devices each have different advantages. For example, Chinese patent publication number CN215356562U discloses a tapping device comprising a base plate, a support plate symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of the base plate, a top plate fixedly connected to the top of the support plate, two support plates rotatably connected to the sides adjacent to each other by double-threaded rods, two double-threaded rods fixedly connected to each other on the sides adjacent to each other, a lifting device movably provided on one side of the double-threaded rods, and a movable plate fixedly connected to the bottom of each lifting device. This utility model has a novel design and is simple to operate. It not only facilitates punching and tapping holes in a reinforcement plate, but also allows for micro-adjustment and centering during tapping, resulting in better tapping results and reducing the damage rate of the tap.

[0004] However, the above-mentioned tapping device still has certain shortcomings. When the punching die punches holes in the reinforcement plate, iron chips will be left in the hole wall. These tiny iron chips will continue to rub against the tapping surface like fine sand grains during the subsequent tapping process, which not only increases the resistance of tapping, but also gradually wears the cutting edge and threaded part of the tap. As time goes by, this continuous wear will significantly reduce the working efficiency and processing accuracy of the tapping, and may even cause the tapping to break, greatly shortening the service life of the tapping. Utility Model Content

[0005] Based on this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an in-mold reverse tapping device to solve the technical problems mentioned in the above background technology.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: an in-mold reverse tapping device, comprising a device body, a movable plate and an adjusting mechanism, a threaded rod corresponding to the adjusting mechanism is rotatably installed in the device body, and a fixed frame is fixedly installed on the top inner wall of the device body, a bevel gear set connected to the threaded rod is rotatably installed in the fixed frame, and a connecting rod is fixedly installed on the other end of the bevel gear set, and a connecting block rotatably installed with the bottom of the fixed frame is fixedly installed on the end of the connecting rod, a long rod is slidably installed on the bottom of the connecting block, and a connecting disk rotatably connected to the movable plate is installed on the outer wall of the long rod, and a brush plate for cleaning the workpiece is fixedly installed on the end of the long rod.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when the tapping device is started, the threaded rod will drive the adjusting mechanism to make the movable plate perform vertical reciprocating motion. When the reinforcing plate completes punching, the track will drive the hole of the reinforcing plate to the position of the long rod. At this time, the long rod will drive the brush plate into the punched hole, and under the linkage of the bevel gear set, the brush plate will rotate in the hole, thereby cleaning the iron chips in the hole wall, effectively preventing subsequent tapping and iron chips friction, and improving the service life of the tapping.

[0008] Furthermore, the bevel gear set includes a driving gear and a driven gear, the driving gear is mounted on the threaded rod, the driven gear is fixedly connected to the connecting rod, and the driving gear and the driven gear are meshed and connected.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when the threaded rod starts to rotate, the connecting rod is driven to start rotating.

[0010] Furthermore, a sliding groove corresponding to the long rod is provided at the bottom of the connecting block, and the sliding groove and the long rod are both designed to be corresponding rectangles.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the long rod can be driven by the movable plate to move in the vertical direction, and the design of the end portion enables the long rod to be driven by the connecting block to rotate.

[0012] Furthermore, the depth of the sliding groove is greater than the length of the long rod sliding downward.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the long rod can slide better.

[0014] Furthermore, balls are installed at the bottom of the connecting plate and are in contact with the inner wall of the movable plate, and multiple groups of balls are installed at equal angles in the connecting plate.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotation of the long rod is further made smoother.

[0016] Furthermore, the brush plate is designed to be a round cake, and the maximum inner diameter of the brush plate corresponds to the inner diameter of the hole punched by the punching die in the device body.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the brush plate can enter the cavity for cleaning.

[0018] Furthermore, the long rod passes through the movable plate, and the connecting plate fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the long rod is rotatably mounted inside the movable plate.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the connecting plate has a limiting effect on the long rod, and at the same time enables the long rod to be driven when the movable plate moves vertically.

[0020] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] The utility model is provided with a bevel gear set, a long rod, a connecting block and a brush plate. When the tapping device is started, the threaded rod will drive the adjusting mechanism to make the movable plate perform vertical reciprocating motion. When the reinforcing plate completes punching, the track will drive the hole of the reinforcing plate to the position of the long rod. At this time, the long rod will drive the brush plate into the punched hole, and under the linkage of the bevel gear set, the brush plate will rotate in the hole, thereby cleaning the iron chips in the hole wall, effectively preventing subsequent tapping and iron chips from rubbing, and improving the service life of the tapping.

[0030] See also Figure 2 The bevel gear set 201 includes a driving gear and a driven gear. The driving gear is mounted on the threaded rod 2, and the driven gear is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 6. The driving gear and the driven gear are meshed and connected, so that when the threaded rod 2 starts to rotate, the connecting rod 6 is driven to start rotating.
