Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of mold technology and relates to a punching fixture for automotive roof trim strips. Background Technology

[0002] The roof trim is a roll-formed product, with the main body made of aluminum and plastic. Currently, some roof trims require punching with square holes and notches on both sides. Since the top and bottom of the product's cross-section are made of soft plastic, if punched in a conventional way, the product's appearance will inevitably be deformed. In addition, the original punching method places the product's cross-section openings upwards, which causes burrs to face the exterior surface, thus also causing appearance problems and leaving considerable room for improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in the prior art by proposing a punching fixture for automotive roof trim strips.

[0004] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solution: a punching fixture for automotive roof trim, comprising:

[0005] The lower die holder is provided with a first punching die.

[0006] The upper die base can be raised and lowered to move closer to or further away from the lower die base. The upper die base is provided with a first punching punch. The first punching punch has an arc surface. The distance from the first punching punch to the first punching die gradually increases from the middle to both sides.

[0007] A punching drive element is connected to the lower die holder, and the upper die holder is connected to the output shaft of the punching drive element. The punching drive element can drive the upper die holder to rise and fall, thereby bringing the first punching punch closer to or away from the first punching die.

[0008] A pressure plate is vertically connected to the upper die base. The pressure plate is provided with a punching hole. The first punching punch is located in the punching hole. The pressure plate is lower than the first punching punch and can rise and fall above the first punching punch as it moves.

[0009] The aforementioned automotive roof trim punching fixture also includes an elastic element, which is located between the upper die base and the pressure plate base, and the pressure plate base is connected to the upper die base through the elastic element.

[0010] In the above-mentioned automobile roof trim punching fixture, the upper die base is further provided with a guide rod, and the pressure plate base is further provided with a first guide hole, and the guide rod is slidably connected to the first guide hole.

[0011] The aforementioned automotive roof trim punching fixture further includes a second punching die and a second punching punch. The second punching die is connected to the lower die base, and the second punching punch is movably connected to the lower die base. The lower die base is also provided with a first linkage part, and the upper die base is also provided with a second linkage part. The second linkage part can contact the first linkage part. When the upper die base approaches the lower die base, it can drive the second linkage part to approach the first linkage part, and when the second linkage part contacts the first linkage part, it can drive the second punching punch to approach the second punching die.

[0012] The aforementioned automotive roof trim punching fixture also includes a movable seat. The lower die seat includes a first position and a second position. The movable seat can be moved to the first position or the second position. When the movable seat is in the first position, the second linkage part is aligned with the first linkage part. When the movable seat is in the second position, the second linkage part is offset from the first linkage part. The second punching die and the second punching punch are both disposed on the movable seat.

[0013] The aforementioned automotive roof trim punching fixture also includes a moving drive element, which is connected to the lower die base. The moving base is connected to the output shaft of the moving drive element, and the moving drive element can drive the moving base to move.

[0014] In the aforementioned automotive roof trim punching fixture, the lower die base is provided with a first blanking groove and a second blanking groove. The first blanking groove is located below the first punching punch, and the second blanking groove is located below the second punching punch.

[0015] In the above-mentioned automotive roof trim punching fixture, the first punching punch is provided with an elastic pin, the cutter of the first punching punch has a U-shaped structure, and the elastic pin is located at the center of the cutter of the first punching punch.

[0016] In the aforementioned automotive roof trim punching fixture, the lower die base is further provided with a second guide hole, and the guide rod passes through the first guide hole and is slidably connected to the second guide hole.

[0017] In the above-mentioned automobile roof trim punching fixture, the lower die base is further provided with a guide groove, and the upper die base is further provided with a guide block, the guide block being slidably connected to the guide groove.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0019] 1. When the car roof trim punching fixture is closed, the pressure plate first contacts and presses the workpiece to prevent it from slipping. Then, the first punching punch and the first punching die shear the workpiece to punch holes. At the same time, the straight distance of the first punching punch from the middle to the sides to the first punching die gradually increases. Therefore, the middle is contacted first and then the sides to prevent the workpiece from deforming.

[0020] 2. The pressure plate is connected to the upper die base through an elastic element. The elastic element can push the pressure plate away from the upper die base, thereby ensuring that the pressure plate is lower than the first punch below the window sill, and ensuring that the pressure plate flexibly presses the workpiece to prevent its deformation when the pressure plate contacts the workpiece.

[0021] 3. When the upper die base approaches the lower die base, it can drive the second linkage part to approach the first linkage part. When the second linkage part contacts the first linkage part, it drives the second punching punch to approach the second punching die. Therefore, the punching of the notches on both sides is realized at the same time during the punching process of the square hole. There is no need for multiple sets of molds and multiple positioning, which greatly saves time and improves product accuracy.

[0022] 4. When the movable seat is in the first position, the second linkage part is aligned with the first linkage part. When the movable seat is in the second position, the second linkage part is offset from the first linkage part, so that the punching of the second punching die and the second punching punch can be selected. When a notch needs to be punched, the movable seat can be moved to the first position. When no notch needs to be punched, the movable seat can be moved to the second position.

[0023] 5. The moving drive element can drive the moving seat to move, realizing automatic control of the moving seat between the first position and the second position. Attached Figure Description

The first punching punch 210 has an arc surface, and the distance from the middle to both sides of the first punching punch 210 to the first punching die 110 gradually increases.

[0040] The punching drive element 300 is connected to the lower die holder 100, and the upper die holder 200 is connected to the output shaft of the punching drive element 300. The punching drive element 300 can drive the upper die holder 200 to rise and fall, thereby bringing the first punching punch 210 closer to or away from the first punching die 110.

[0041] The pressure plate 400 is vertically connected to the upper die base 200. The pressure plate 400 is provided with a punching hole. The first punching punch 210 is located in the punching hole. The pressure plate 400 is lower than the first punching punch 210 and can rise and fall above the first punching punch 210 as it rises and falls.

[0042] In this embodiment, when the car roof trim punching fixture is closed, the pressure plate 400 first contacts and presses the workpiece to prevent it from slipping. Then, the first punching punch 210 and the first punching die 110 shear and punch holes in the workpiece. At the same time, the straight distance from the middle to the sides of the first punching punch 210 to the first punching die 110 gradually increases, so the middle is contacted first and then the sides to prevent the workpiece from deforming.

[0043] like Figures 1-6 As shown, based on the above embodiment, an elastic element 500 is also included. The elastic element 500 is located between the upper mold base 200 and the pressure base 400. The pressure base 400 is connected to the upper mold base 200 through the elastic element 500.

[0044] In this embodiment, the pressure plate 400 is connected to the upper die base 200 through the elastic element 500. The elastic element 500 can push the pressure plate 400 away from the upper die base 200, thereby ensuring that the pressure plate 400 is lower than the first punching punch 210 below the window sill, and ensuring that the pressure plate 400 flexibly presses the workpiece to prevent its deformation when the pressure plate 400 contacts the workpiece.

[0045] like Figures 1-6 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the upper mold base 200 is further provided with a guide rod 220, and the pressure base 400 is further provided with a first guide hole 410, and the guide rod 220 is slidably connected to the first guide hole 410.

[0046] In this embodiment, the guide rod 220 is slidably connected to the first guide hole 410, thereby guiding the pressure seat 400 to rise and fall relative to the upper mold seat 200, ensuring the movement accuracy of the pressure seat 400 during the rise and fall.

[0047] like Figures 1-6 As shown, based on the above embodiment, it further includes a second punching die 600 and a second punching punch 700.
