Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of aluminum alloy profile processing, in particular to a disc-type multi-station processing device for multi-surface processing of aluminum profiles. Background Art

[0002] Aluminum profiles are a common processing substrate in industry, and it is often necessary to machine multiple or multiple groups of anchor holes, threaded holes, etc. on their surfaces. Conventional processing equipment is a CNC machining center, and the machining head moves to the specified position for processing. However, when some aluminum profiles need to be processed on multiple sides, only the following methods can be adopted: 1. Use a three-axis ordinary machining center. After processing one side, release the clamp, turn it over, and then process the next side. However, this processing method will cause large position errors between the machined holes due to multiple clamping, which will cause difficulties in later assembly. 2. Use a four-axis or five-axis machining center, which can clamp and process multiple sides at one time, but the equipment cost is very high, and the equipment depreciation and maintenance costs will increase the unit price of the workpiece, which lacks market competitiveness. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a multi-surface processing aluminum profile disc-type multi-station processing equipment, which can realize the processing of multiple surfaces of aluminum profiles at different stations through a rotatable wheel disc. The equipment has low cost, convenient operation and reliable structure.

[0004] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution of the present utility model is as follows:

[0005] A multi-station disc processing equipment for multi-sided aluminum profile processing. A horizontally rotating turntable is set on the equipment base. The turntable is divided into four stations, and a clamp is set on each station; the first station is the loading station, a horizontal processing mechanism is set on the side of the second station, a vertical processing mechanism A is set above the third station, and a vertical processing mechanism B is set above the fourth station; the vertical rotating shaft in the center of the turntable is connected to the servo motor through a reduction box.

[0006] The reduction gearbox has a self-locking function, and several position sensors and positioning pin holes are set at the bottom of the turntable. When the turntable rotates to the corresponding workstation, the PLC controls the servo motor to stop rotating, and the positioning pin is extended through the cylinder to position the pin hole. The processing mechanisms of the second, third and fourth workstations are fed for processing. After the processing is completed, the positioning mechanism is unlocked, and the turntable continues to rotate to the next workstation for processing. At the same time, the operator unloads the aluminum profile processed at the first workstation and clamps the unprocessed aluminum profile into the first workstation.

[0007] The horizontal processing mechanism includes a horizontal guide rail fixed on the base, the horizontal guide rail is connected to the sliding plate through a slider, and the power head is fixedly installed on the sliding plate; a wire block is also provided in the middle of the lower end surface of the sliding plate, the wire hole of the wire block is connected with the wire thread of the wire handwheel, and the wire handwheel is installed on the base through a bearing.

[0008] The power head is a purchased drilling power head with its own motor, which is fed by high-pressure air. The horizontal machining mechanism can be moved by manually turning a handwheel, which is driven by a screw. Two power heads are mounted on the horizontal slide, and the pitch of the holes can be adjusted by adjusting the screw.

[0009] The vertical machining mechanisms A and B are table-type vertical drilling devices. Each vertical drilling device also uses a purchased drilling power head with its own motor, and high-pressure air is used to feed the drill bit. Vertical machining mechanism A is equipped with a hole drill bit, while vertical machining mechanism B is equipped with a tap drill bit. These can be used to machine threaded holes in aluminum profiles.

[0010] A protective cover is provided on the base of the equipment, through holes are provided at the location where the horizontal processing mechanism interferes, and a window sash is provided at the first station as a loading area. The protective cover can prevent aluminum chips from being ejected, which is beneficial to protecting the safety of the operator.

[0011] The turntable has a central hole, over which a central shaft cover, rotating with the turntable, is mounted. This cover protects the shaft bearings and features multiple air pipe holes. Air pipes exit from the center and connect to pneumatic clamps at each station, providing power for opening and closing. The clamps utilize a three-point clamping mechanism, with three cylinders supporting the upper and lower ends of the aluminum profile for securement.

[0012] Advantages of utility models

[0013] 1. The utility model realizes simultaneous processing of multiple surfaces of aluminum profiles at different workstations through a rotatable wheel, which greatly improves the processing efficiency compared with ordinary three-axis machining centers.

[0014] 2. The utility model only needs one clamping to process aluminum profiles on different surfaces, thus avoiding the influence of multiple clamping on the processing size and improving the processing accuracy.

[0015] 3. The equipment of this utility model has low cost, convenient maintenance, low learning cost for operators, and can be operated after simple learning. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
