Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of metal stamping processing, and particularly relates to a stamping material belt automatic guiding device suitable for steel coil output for stamping processing. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the prior art, the plate guiding in the stamping process is usually operated by a guide plate. The guide plate ensures the correct positioning of the plate in the stamping process by contacting the edge of the plate. However, this method has obvious deficiencies in long-term use. First, the edge of the metal sheet is usually sharp, especially after being stamped or sheared for many times, the edge of the plate may be uneven. The contact and friction between the guide plate and the metal plate will cause the wear of the guide plate, and the surface of the guide plate will be gradually worn or grooved as the use time is prolonged. Such wear not only reduces the guiding accuracy of the guide plate, but also the guide plate must be replaced when it is worn to a certain extent, which increases the maintenance frequency and downtime of the equipment, directly affecting the production efficiency and cost.

[0003] More importantly, the existing guiding method is usually hard contact type. The guide plate directly contacts the plate and applies a certain guiding force. Since the metal sheet, especially high-strength steel, has high rigidity during processing, the force applied by the guide plate is usually large. Such excessive contact force may cause local stress concentration on the edge of the plate, causing the plate to deform, especially the thin plate material, which is easily affected during the guiding process. The deformation of the plate during the guiding process not only affects the accuracy of the subsequent stamping process, but also may cause the appearance and functional performance of the product to fail to meet the design requirements. Especially in mass production, the wear of the guide plate and the deformation of the plate will significantly increase the defective rate and reduce the stability and efficiency of production.

[0004] In addition, the wear problem of the guide plate further increases the maintenance cost of the production line. In the traditional guiding system, as the guide plate is gradually worn, the guide plate must be regularly checked and replaced, and the replacement period is not fixed, which increases the downtime and maintenance cost of the equipment. Moreover, since the guiding force of the guide plate when contacting the plate is large, the edge of the plate may appear cracks or irregular deformation under long-term action, which causes more problems in the subsequent processing steps, affecting the smoothness and quality of the overall production process.

[0005] In view of these problems, it is of great practical significance to develop a stamping material belt automatic guiding device. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION

[0006] The purpose of the present application is to at least overcome one of the deficiencies of the prior art, provide a stamping material belt automatic guiding device, which reduces wear and maintenance cost by using a guide roller with a hydraulic spring, a displacement mechanism and an edge detection mechanism, and can effectively reduce the physical contact force on the plate, avoid deformation of the plate due to excessive stress during guiding, improve the stability and consistency of production, and effectively reduce subsequent processing problems caused by deformation.

[0007] To achieve the above purpose, the present application discloses a stamping material belt automatic guiding device, which comprises a base, a shaft frame horizontally and slidingly installed on the base, a guide roller installed on the shaft frame through a lifting mechanism, and an edge detection assembly installed on the shaft frame, wherein the base is provided with a linear guide rail and a sliding block slidingly installed on the linear guide rail, and a hydraulic pushing assembly for pushing the sliding block to move along the linear guide rail is also installed on the base; the shaft frame is slidingly installed on the sliding block and fixed in position by a rubber block in front and back, so that the shaft frame has impact buffering function; the guide roller is vertically arranged and connected with the lifting mechanism at the upper end, and the lifting mechanism drives the guide roller to move in a preset stroke in the vertical direction.

[0008] In some embodiments, a pressure sensor is installed between the hydraulic pushing assembly and the sliding block.

[0009] In some embodiments, the guide roller comprises a roller core and a detachable roller sleeve sleeved outside the roller core, and the roller sleeve is used for guiding by contacting the edge of the material belt.

[0010] In some embodiments, the edge detection assembly comprises a positioning guide rail, a photoelectric sensor vertically downwardly installed on the positioning guide rail, and the position of the material belt is sensed by judging the position of the edge.

[0011] In some other embodiments, the edge detection assembly comprises a mounting bracket, an industrial camera downwardly installed on the mounting bracket, and a data processing device connected with the industrial camera.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present application has at least one of the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. Reduce maintenance cost and frequency: by using hydraulic spring and displacement mechanism, accurate control and buffering of the guide roller are realized, thereby reducing hard contact and friction wear between the guide roller and the edge of the plate. The detachable design of the roller sleeve also facilitates quick replacement without replacing the entire guide roller, further reducing maintenance cost and equipment downtime.

[0014] 2. Improve production stability and quality: By using edge detection mechanisms such as photoelectric sensors or industrial cameras, the position of the material strip is monitored and adjusted in real time, ensuring accuracy and consistency in the straightening process. This precise control reduces the deformation of the sheet metal caused by uneven stress, ensuring the accuracy of subsequent processing procedures and the quality of the product.

[0015] 3. Reduce sheet metal damage: The design of this device reduces the physical contact force on the sheet metal. Through the buffering action of the hydraulic pushing assembly and the rubber block, it effectively avoids the stress concentration and deformation of the sheet metal edge caused by traditional hard contact straightening methods.

[0016] 4. Improve the service life of the guide roller: The adjustable contact position between the guide roller and the material strip allows the guide roller to wear evenly, avoiding excessive wear in certain areas. This innovative design effectively extends the service life of the guide roller, reducing the need for frequent replacement, thereby reducing maintenance costs and improving the overall stability of the production line.

Embodiments

[0025] Referring to the drawings Figure 1 , 2 The present embodiment relates to an automatic guiding device for stamping material belt, aiming to provide an improved guiding method to improve the precision in the stamping process and reduce equipment maintenance and material deformation. The device includes a base 1, a shaft support 2, a guide roller 3, an edge detection assembly 4, a hydraulic pushing assembly 5, a sliding block 6, a roller core 7, a roller sleeve 8 and other main components, forming a precise automatic guiding system.

[0026] The base 1 is the supporting structure of the device, usually made of steel, with sufficient rigidity and stability to withstand the load generated by the entire guiding device during the stamping process. The base 1 is installed with linear guides for mounting the sliding block 6 and providing guiding effect. The sliding block 6 is installed on the linear guides by sliding and moves along the guide direction under the action of the hydraulic pushing assembly 5. The hydraulic pushing assembly 5 controls the displacement of the sliding block 6 through the hydraulic system, ensuring that the entire system can operate within a high precision range.

[0027] The shaft support 2 is horizontally moved on the base 1 through the sliding block 6. The shaft support 2 is installed with the guide roller 3, the upper end of which cooperates with the lifting mechanism to move up and down in the vertical direction. The function of the lifting mechanism is to drive the guide roller 3 to move up and down within the preset stroke, adjust the contact position of the guide roller with the material belt, and thus realize the guiding of the material belt. The vertical movement of the guide roller 3 is controlled by the hydraulic system, which can accurately adjust the pressure and contact depth of the guide roller, avoiding the deformation of the material edge.

[0028] The working principle of the guide roller 3 is based on its contact with the edge of the material belt. In this embodiment, the guide roller 3 is composed of a roller core 7 and a detachable roller sleeve 8, which guides the movement of the material belt by contacting the edge of the material belt. The roller sleeve 8 is replaceable, which can adjust its wear condition as needed, prolong its service life, and ensure the guiding accuracy of the guide roller 3. The roller core 7 is installed in cooperation with the roller sleeve 8, and the material of the roller core 7 generally uses a metal material with high hardness, while the roller sleeve 8 uses a wear-resistant alloy material to ensure that it can withstand repeated friction during long-term use.

[0029] The edge detection assembly 4 is one of the key components of the device, which functions to monitor the edge position of the material belt in real time. The assembly includes a positioning guide rail, through which a photoelectric sensor installed on the positioning guide rail can accurately sense the deviation of the edge of the material belt. When the material belt deviates, the edge detection assembly 4 will feed back real-time data to the control system, adjust the pressure of the hydraulic pushing assembly 5 or the position of the guide roller, and ensure that the material belt always remains in the correct guiding position. The photoelectric sensor has high sensitivity and can detect the slight deviation of the material belt in time, thereby ensuring the stability of the stamping process.

[0030] In some embodiments, a pressure sensor is provided between the hydraulic pushing assembly 5 and the sliding block 6 for real-time monitoring of the guiding pressure. The pressure sensor can accurately measure the output pressure of the hydraulic pushing assembly 5 and feed back the data to the control system. When the pressure sensor detects that the pressure is too large or too small, the control system will automatically adjust the working parameters of the hydraulic system to ensure that the pressure applied by the guide roller 3 always remains within the appropriate range, avoiding unnecessary stress concentration on the sheet metal, thereby reducing the deformation of the sheet metal.

[0031] Through this design, the edge detection assembly 4 and the pressure sensor work together to achieve accurate guidance of the material belt while maintaining a constant guiding pressure. The function of the hydraulic pushing assembly 5 is to ensure that the guide roller 3 can accurately guide the sheet metal and adjust the guiding force in time according to the feedback of the edge detection assembly 4, avoiding sheet metal deformation or stamping precision decline.

[0032] The roller core 7 and the roller sleeve 8 of the guide roller 3 can adjust their contact positions according to the use condition, ensuring that the wear of the guide roller 3 is uniform after long-term use, prolonging its service life. This design effectively reduces maintenance costs, avoids the risk of sheet metal deformation in the traditional hard contact guiding method, improves stamping precision, and reduces equipment downtime.

[0033] The biggest advantage of the automatic guiding device for stamping material belt is that it can automatically adjust the guiding force and position, keeping the stability of the material belt during the stamping process. Through precise pressure control and real-time edge detection, the risk of material deformation in the traditional hard contact guiding method is avoided. At the same time, the wear of the guide roller is evenly distributed, reducing the maintenance cost and prolonging the service life of the equipment. The combination of hydraulic pushing components and pressure sensors enables the device to respond to process requirements in real time, improving production efficiency and product quality.

[0034] This embodiment describes in detail the various components of the automatic guiding device for stamping material belt and its working principle, specifically explaining its structure, operation method and beneficial effects. Through these improvements, the device not only improves production efficiency, but also effectively reduces maintenance costs and the rate of defective products during the production process.

Therefore, all changes and modifications are included within the scope of protection of the present disclosure as defined by the claims.
