Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of punching processing technology, and specifically relates to a feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] A punch press is a commonly used machining equipment, mainly used for forming operations such as punching, bending, and stretching of metal sheets. It transmits force to the workpiece through a die to achieve the desired shape change. Punch presses are widely used in the automotive, home appliance, electronics, and aerospace industries, and are an indispensable piece of equipment in modern industrial production. During the use of a punch press, a feeding device is required to feed the metal sheets, enabling automatic loading and unloading.

[0003] Existing feeding devices work by placing the metal sheet to be fed in a suitable position, then a traveling module mounted on a support moves the feeding seat, adjusting its horizontal and vertical positions to bring it close to the metal sheet. An air pump on the feeding seat then controls a suction cup to draw air, causing the suction cup to grip and hold the metal sheet, thus picking it up. The traveling module then moves the feeding seat, which in turn moves the gripped metal sheet, feeding it. However, in actual use, metal processing inevitably generates debris or dust, which may settle on the surface of the metal sheet. This debris or dust can affect the tightness between the suction cup and the metal sheet, potentially impacting the gripping stability and the conveying stability of the metal sheet. This can cause the metal sheet to wobble during transport, requiring personnel to clean the surface of the metal sheet before feeding, which is cumbersome, time-consuming, and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, this utility model addresses the shortcomings of the prior art by providing a feeding device that can quickly and stably clamp and pick up metal sheets when they need to be picked up, avoiding the impact of debris or dust on the conveying stability of the metal sheets and making it easy to use.

[0007] As a further improvement of this utility model, the drive unit includes a drive seat symmetrically slidably disposed inside the feed seat. A rotating seat is disposed on the lower surface of each drive seat. A connecting rod symmetrically distributed vertically is disposed inside each rotating seat. The end of the connecting rod away from the rotating seat is rotatably connected to the adjacent clamping seat. A bidirectional lead screw is rotatably disposed inside the drive seat.

[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model, a control board is provided on the front side of the bracket, and the electric push rod, hydraulic telescopic rod, motor one and motor two are all electrically connected to the control board.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0010] Firstly, the extension end of the hydraulic telescopic rod drives the movable seat to move up and down under the guidance of the sliding seat and the guide rail, thereby adjusting the vertical position of the sliding seat.

[0011] Secondly, the operation of motor one is controlled by the control board, so that the output shaft of motor one drives the adjusting screw connected to it to rotate, so that the extension end of the electric push rod drives the sliding block to slide between the sliding block and the movable rail.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] To better understand this utility model, the following embodiments further illustrate its content, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited to the embodiments described below. Numerous specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a more thorough understanding of this utility model. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model can be practiced without one or more of these details.

[0021] like Figure 1 , 4 As shown, the system includes a base 101, a support 103 on the upper surface of the base 101, and evenly distributed guide rails 104 between the support 103 and the base 101. Sliding seats 105 are slidably arranged between the guide rails 104 on the same side, and movable seats 106 are arranged between the sliding seats 105. A slide table 107 is slidably arranged inside the movable seat 106, and a movable rail 108 is arranged on the front side of the slide table 107. A guide groove 109 is opened inside the movable rail 108, and a sliding block 110 is slidably arranged inside the guide groove 109. A clamping module for clamping is also provided on the sliding block 110. An electronic control module for driving the sliding block 110 to move is also provided on the support 103, the movable seat 106, and the movable rail 108.

[0022] like Figure 2 , 4 As shown, the electronic control module includes an electric push rod 111 mounted on the upper surface of the slide table 107. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 111 is connected and fixed to the sliding block 110. The upper end of the bracket 103 is provided with symmetrically distributed hydraulic telescopic rods 112. The telescopic ends of the hydraulic telescopic rods 112 are all connected and fixed to the movable seat 106. An adjusting screw 113 is rotatably mounted inside the movable seat 106. The adjusting screw 113 is threadedly connected to the slide table 107. A motor 114 is mounted on the outer side of the movable seat 106. The output shaft of the motor 114 is fixed to the adjusting screw 113 by a coupling.

[0023] like Figure 2 , 3As shown, the clamping module includes a feeding seat 201 disposed on the lower surface of the sliding block 110. Symmetrically distributed sliding cylinders 202 are disposed on the lower surface of the feeding seat 201. Symmetrically distributed sliding rods 203 are slidably disposed inside each sliding cylinder 202. Clamping seats 204 are respectively disposed between the sliding rods 203 on the same side. Symmetrically distributed L-shaped clamping plates 205 are slidably disposed on the lower side of each clamping seat 204. A limiting unit for limiting the L-shaped clamping plates 205 is also disposed on the clamping seat 204. A driving unit for driving the clamping seat 204 to move is also disposed on the feeding seat 201. The limiting unit includes limiting holes 206 evenly distributed on the upper surface of the clamping seat 204. The L-shaped clamping plates 205... A limit bolt is threadedly connected between 05 and the adjacent limit hole 206; the drive unit includes a drive seat 207 symmetrically slidably disposed inside the feed seat 201, a rotating seat 208 is provided on the lower surface of the drive seat 207, and a connecting rod 209 symmetrically distributed vertically is rotatably disposed inside the rotating seat 208, and the end of the connecting rod 209 away from the rotating seat 208 is rotatably connected to the adjacent clamping seat 204 respectively. A double-acting screw 210 is rotatably disposed inside the drive seat 207, and the drive seat 207 is threadedly connected to the double-acting screw 210. A second motor 211 is disposed on the rear side of the feed seat 201, and the output shaft of the second motor 211 is fixed to the double-acting screw 210 by a coupling.

[0024] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, a control board 301 is provided on the front side of the bracket 103. The electric push rod 111, the hydraulic telescopic rod 112, the first motor 114 and the second motor 211 are all electrically connected to the control board 301.

[0025] When feeding material to the punch press is required, the control board 301 controls the operation of the hydraulic telescopic rod 112, which in turn causes the telescopic end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 112 to drive the movable seat 106 to move up and down under the guidance of the sliding seat 105 and the guide rail 104, thus adjusting the vertical position of the sliding seat 105. This, in turn, causes the sliding seat 105 to drive the feeding seat 201 to move up or down via the movable rail 108, adjusting the vertical position of the feeding seat 201. The control board 301 also controls the operation of the motor 114, causing the output shaft of the motor 114 to drive the adjusting screw connected to it. When screw 113 rotates, it adjusts the thread relationship between screw 113 and slide 107, causing slide 107 to move inside slide seat 105. This causes slide seat 105 to move feed seat 201 left or right via movable rail 108. Control panel 301 regulates the operation of electric push rod 111, causing the extension end of electric push rod 111 to slide between sliding block 110 and movable rail 108. This causes sliding block 110 to move feed seat 201 forward or backward. The cooperation of motor 114 and electric push rod 111 controls the horizontal movement of feed seat 201. The position is adjusted; the feeding seat 201 is moved by the cooperation of motor 114, electric push rod 111 and hydraulic telescopic rod 112, and the horizontal and vertical positions of the feeding seat 201 are adjusted to facilitate the loading and unloading of metal sheets; the L-shaped clamping plate 205 is slid by the operator to make the L-shaped clamping plate 205 slide between the clamping seat 204, and the distance between the L-shaped clamping plates 205 on the front and rear sides is adjusted. Then, the position of the L-shaped clamping plate 205 is adjusted and limited by tightening the limit bolts with external tools, and the distance between the L-shaped clamping plates 205 is adjusted. The system allows for rapid adjustment. By controlling the operation of motor 211 via control board 301, the output shaft of motor 211 drives the bidirectional lead screw 210 connected to it to rotate. This, in turn, causes the drive seat 207 to move through the threaded relationship between the bidirectional lead screw 210 and the drive seat 207. Consequently, the drive seat 207 rotates with the connecting rod 209 and with the clamping seat 204. This, in turn, causes the drive seat 207 to move the clamping seats 204 on both sides toward each other or toward each other via the connecting rod 209, thus achieving rapid and stable clamping of the metal sheet.

[0026] According to another embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 , 4 As shown, rubber pads are glued and fixed to the side of the L-shaped clamping plate 205 near the vertical center of the feeding seat 201. When clamping and feeding the metal sheet, the rubber pads inside the L-shaped clamping plate 205 can effectively prevent the metal sheet from rubbing against the L-shaped clamping plate 205, and can effectively prevent damage to the metal sheet or the L-shaped clamping plate due to rigid connection.

[0027] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Any other modifications or equivalent substitutions made by those skilled in the art to the technical solution of this utility model, as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
