Detailed Implementation

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please see Figures 3-7 An automated stamping die for processing seat belt brackets includes a fixed frame 1. The fixed frame 1 has a through groove, and a partition 2 is provided in the middle of the through groove, thereby dividing the through groove into two symmetrical mounting cavities 3. A multi-station stamping assembly 4 is provided in the mounting cavity 3. A fixed column 5 is fixedly installed on the top of the partition 2. Cantilever 6 is fixedly installed on both sides of the fixed column 5 corresponding to the multi-station stamping assembly 4. A stamping cylinder 7 is fixedly installed on the top of the cantilever 6. The output end of the stamping cylinder 7 is detachably connected to the upper die 8 of the seat belt bracket.

[0027] The multi-station stamping assembly 4 includes a main synchronous pulley 41, a driven synchronous pulley 42, a drive motor 43, and a pneumatic push rod 44. The main synchronous pulley 41 and the driven synchronous pulley 42 are rotatably mounted in the mounting cavity 3. The drive motor 43 is mounted on the outer wall of the fixed frame 1, and the output end of the drive motor 43 is connected to the main synchronous pulley 41. The main synchronous pulley 41 and the driven synchronous pulley 42 are connected by a synchronous belt 45. A safety belt bracket lower die 9 is provided at equal intervals on the synchronous belt 45. An opening 46 is provided on the synchronous belt 45 at the bottom of the safety belt bracket lower die 9. A pneumatic push rod 44 is vertically fixed in the mounting cavity 3 corresponding to the safety belt bracket upper die 8. A support plate 47 is connected to the top of the pneumatic push rod 44. An automatic tensioning wheel (not shown in the figure) is installed in the mounting cavity 3 to ensure sufficient tension on the synchronous belt 45.

[0028] In this embodiment, a positioning strip 48 is installed on the top of the support plate 47, and a positioning groove matching the positioning strip 48 is provided at the bottom of the lower mold 9 of the seat belt bracket. The surface of the positioning strip 48 is coated with a wear-resistant coating, preferably polytetrafluoroethylene.

[0029] In this embodiment, mold clamping bars 10 are provided on both sides of the lower mold 9 of the seat belt bracket. The mold clamping bars 10 are connected to the synchronous belt 45, and connecting shafts 11 are provided at both ends of the mold clamping bars 10. Rollers 12 are installed on the connecting shafts 11. An annular groove 13 is formed in the inner side wall of the mounting cavity 3. The annular groove 13 matches the movement trajectory of the lower mold 9 of the seat belt bracket, and the rollers 12 slide in the annular groove 13. The mold clamping bars 10 are driven to move along the annular groove 13 by the synchronous belt 45.

[0030] In this embodiment, guide grooves are correspondingly formed on the two mold clamping bars 10. The lower mold 9 of the seat belt bracket fits into these guide grooves on both sides. A support plate 14 is provided at the bottom of the mold clamping bar 10. The bottom of the lower mold 9 of the seat belt bracket is supported by the support plate 14 and connected to the support plate 14 by screws. A stepped hole 15 is formed on the mold clamping bar 10. A T-shaped shaft 16 is movably fitted in the stepped hole 15. The bottom end of the T-shaped shaft 16 is connected to the support plate 14. A return spring 17 is sleeved on the T-shaped shaft 16. During stamping, the upper mold 8 of the seat belt bracket presses the lower mold 9 of the seat belt bracket down by a certain displacement. When the upper mold 8 of the seat belt bracket moves up, the return spring 17 drives the support plate 14 to move up, so that the lower mold 9 of the seat belt bracket returns to its original position.

[0031] A support base 18 is installed between the partition 2 and the inner wall of the fixed frame 1, and the bottom of the pneumatic push rod 44 is fixedly installed on the support base 18.

[0032] A first position sensor (not shown in the figure) is installed on the partition plate 2 corresponding to the pneumatic push rod 44. Second position sensors (not shown in the figure) are installed on the support plate 47 and the lower mold 9 of the seatbelt bracket, respectively. A control panel with a touchscreen (not shown in the figure) is installed on the fixed frame 1. The first position sensor, the second position sensor, the stamping cylinder 7, the drive motor 43, and the pneumatic push rod 44 are all electrically connected to the control panel. The first position sensor detects whether the lower mold 9 of the seatbelt bracket has moved to the designated position, and the second position sensor detects whether the support plate 47 has moved into position.

[0033] An emergency stop button is provided on the control panel, and a pressure sensor (not shown in the figure) is provided at the bottom of the tray 14. The emergency stop button is triggered when an abnormal impact is detected.

[0034] Work process:

[0035] One end of the fixed frame 1 is the feeding end, and the other end is the discharging end. At the feeding end, the part to be stamped is placed into the lower die 9 of the seat belt bracket by a worker or robot. The drive motor 43 is started, and the synchronous belt 45 drives the lower die 9 of the seat belt bracket to circulate along the annular slide groove 13 through the die clamping bar 10. When the first position sensor detects that the lower die 9 of the seat belt bracket has moved into place, the synchronous belt 45 stops moving, the pneumatic push rod 44 drives the support plate 47 to rise, and the positioning bar 48 is matched into the positioning groove. After the second position sensor confirms the alignment, the stamping cylinder 7 moves down to apply force, and the upper die 8 of the seat belt bracket moves down to cooperate with the lower die 9 of the seat belt bracket to complete the stamping process. After the stamping is completed, the pneumatic push rod 44 is reset, the upper die 8 of the seat belt bracket moves up, and the synchronous belt 45 drives the next lower die 9 of the seat belt bracket to move into place. The stamped seat belt bracket falls from the discharging end. A collection box can be placed at the discharging end to collect the fallen seat belt brackets, or a conveyor belt can be arranged to catch the fallen seat belt brackets and transport them to the designated location.

[0036] This utility model adopts a symmetrically arranged multi-station stamping assembly and a main and slave synchronous belt pulley transmission system. The drive motor drives the lower die of the safety belt bracket to circulate along the annular slide groove. There is no need to stop the machine to wait for loading. The single stamping cycle is shortened to within 5 seconds, and the cycle time can reach 8-12 times per minute, which improves the capacity utilization rate by more than 3 times compared with the traditional process.

[0037] The positioning strip on the top of the support plate precisely matches the positioning groove at the bottom of the lower die of the seat belt bracket. Combined with the polytetrafluoroethylene coating on the surface (friction coefficient ≤0.1) and the closed-loop control of the first and second position sensors, it ensures that the offset of the part to be stamped during high-speed stamping is <0.05mm, and the dimensional tolerance of the finished product is stable within ±0.1mm.

[0038] The pneumatic push rod is rigidly connected to the fixed frame through the support base, dynamically abutting against the lower die to offset the stamping reaction force; the roller slides and guides along the annular groove, and with the T-shaped shaft + return spring buffer mechanism, it effectively reduces the vibration amplitude of the equipment by more than 60% and extends the mold life by 2-3 times.
