The punching effect of this refrigeration equipment sheet metal facilitates the movement of the equipment, increases convenience, and improves practicality.

[0004] It can be seen that the above-mentioned patent has the following shortcomings: Traditional refrigeration equipment places the plate directly on the workbench and uses a cylinder to drive the punch to punch the plate. The device lacks the positioning and clamping function for the processed plate. The plate is unstable and may easily shift on the table, which will affect the punching quality of the plate and reduce the practicality of the device.

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, a punching device for sheet metal processing in refrigeration equipment production is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a punching device for processing sheet metal in refrigeration equipment. By using this device, the problem of traditional refrigeration equipment, which places the sheet metal directly on the worktable and uses a cylinder to drive the punch to punch the sheet metal is solved. The device lacks a positioning and clamping function for the sheet metal, and the sheet metal is unstable and easily shifts on the worktable, which will affect the punching quality and reduce the practicality of the device.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a punching device for processing sheet metal in refrigeration equipment production, comprising a worktable, a clamping assembly provided on the top surface of the worktable, and two sets of the clamping assembly, with a sheet metal body disposed between the two sets of the clamping assembly; a punching assembly also provided on the top surface of the worktable; the clamping assembly includes a hydraulic cylinder fixedly connected to the top of the worktable, a sliding plate slidably connected to the top surface of the worktable, the sliding plate being connected to the output end of the hydraulic cylinder, a fixed support plate fixedly connected to the top surface of the worktable, and two sets of the fixed support plates, with a fixed rod fixedly connected between the two sets of the fixed support plates; the punching assembly includes a support block fixedly connected to the top of the worktable, a limit groove provided on one side of the support block, a sliding block slidably connected to the inner cavity of the limit groove, and a lifting plate fixedly connected to the side of the sliding block away from the support block.

[0008] Preferably, the clamping assembly further includes a limiting plate slidably connected to the outer periphery of the fixing rod, and two sets of the limiting plate are provided.

[0009] Preferably, a suction cup component is provided on one side of the limiting plate.

[0010] Preferably, a connecting rod component is provided between the sliding plate and the limiting plate, and two sets of the connecting rod component are provided. One end of the connecting rod component is rotatably connected to one side of the sliding plate through a connecting rod, and the other end of the connecting rod component is rotatably connected to one side of the limiting plate through a connecting rod.

[0011] Preferably, the punching assembly further includes a punching head drive component disposed at the bottom of the lifting plate.

[0012] Preferably, a top plate is fixedly connected to the upper end of the support block, and a cylinder is fixedly connected to the top of the top plate.

[0013] Preferably, the cylinder output end extends through the top plate to one side of the lifting plate, and the lifting plate is connected to the cylinder output end.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] 1. When punching the sheet metal body for refrigeration equipment using the device, place the sheet metal body on the top surface of the workbench and between two sets of clamping components. At this time, the four sets of limiting plates are located on the four sides of the sheet metal body. Simultaneously activate the two sets of hydraulic cylinders, causing them to retract at the same time. The hydraulic cylinders drive the sliding plate to retract and slide. The sliding plate drives the two sets of adjacent connecting rod components to rotate. In turn, the two sets of connecting rod components drive the two sets of limiting plates to move. Since the two sets of adjacent limiting plates are limited on the fixed rod track, the retraction drive of the hydraulic cylinders will cause the two sets of limiting plates to move closer to each other along the fixed rod until the four sets of limiting plates work together to firmly clamp the sheet metal body on the workbench surface. The suction cup components set on the side wall of the limiting plates are also firmly attached and fixed to the side of the sheet metal body, improving the fixing effect of the limiting plates on the sheet metal body.

[0016] 2. After the sheet metal body is fixed on the worktable using two sets of clamping components, the working mode of the cylinder and punching head drive component can be activated. The cylinder extends to drive the lifting plate to descend, and then the lifting plate drives the punching head drive component to press down. The punching head drive component can punch holes in the sheet metal body. After punching is completed, the cylinder retracts, and the cylinder drives the lifting plate and punching head drive component to rise rapidly until they return to their original positions. During the lifting process, the sliding block on one side of the lifting plate is limited to slide within the limit groove cavity. The limit mechanism can improve the stability of the lifting plate's lifting and lowering, thereby improving the stability of the punching head drive component's lifting and lowering process and enhancing the practicality of the device.

[0017] 3. When the sheet metal body needs to be removed from the worktable, the two sets of hydraulic cylinders extend simultaneously. The hydraulic cylinders push the sliding plate towards the fixed rod, and then the two sets of connecting rod components drive the two sets of limiting plates to move away from each other until all four sets of limiting plates are away from the sheet metal body, and the suction cup component also separates from the sheet metal body. Then the user can remove the sheet metal body from the worktable. This setting uses two sets of clamping components to clamp and position the sheet metal body together, and the operation is quick. This allows the sheet metal body to be stably placed on the processing table, which is convenient for subsequent punching work through the punching component, thus improving the working quality of the device.

The clamping assembly 2 includes a hydraulic cylinder 21 fixedly connected to the top of the workbench 1. A sliding plate 22 is slidably connected to the top surface of the workbench 1. The sliding plate 22 is connected to the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 21.

A lifting plate 35 is fixedly connected to the side of the sliding block 36 away from the support block 31.

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.

[0027] Example 1:

[0028] This embodiment discloses the following technical solution, specifically as follows: Figures 1-3 As shown:

[0029] The clamping assembly 2 also includes a limiting plate 26 slidably connected to the outer periphery of the fixed rod 24, and two sets of limiting plates 26 are provided. A suction cup component 27 is provided on one side of the limiting plate 26. A connecting rod component 25 is provided between the sliding plate 22 and the limiting plate 26, and two sets of connecting rod components 25 are provided. One end of the connecting rod component 25 is rotatably connected to one side of the sliding plate 22 through a connecting rod, and the other end of the connecting rod component 25 is rotatably connected to one side of the limiting plate 26 through a connecting rod.

[0030] Example 2:

[0031] This embodiment discloses the following technical solution, specifically as follows: Figures 1-2 and Figure 4 As shown:

[0032] The punching assembly 3 also includes a punching head drive component 37 disposed at the bottom of the lifting plate 35. A top plate 33 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the support block 31. A cylinder 34 is fixedly connected to the top of the top plate 33. The output end of the cylinder 34 extends through the top plate 33 to one side of the lifting plate 35. The lifting plate 35 is connected to the output end of the cylinder 34.

[0033] In summary: When punching the sheet metal body 4 used in refrigeration equipment is required, the sheet metal body 4 is placed on the top surface of the workbench 1 and between the two sets of clamping components 2. At this time, the four sets of limiting plates 26 are located at the four sides of the sheet metal body 4. Simultaneously, the two sets of hydraulic cylinders 21 are activated, causing them to retract. The hydraulic cylinders 21 drive the sliding plate 22 to retract and slide. The sliding plate 22 drives the two sets of adjacent connecting rod components 25 to rotate, which in turn drives the two sets of limiting plates 26 to move. Since the two adjacent sets of limiting plates 26 are limited on the track of the fixed rod 24, the retraction drive of the hydraulic cylinders 21 causes the two sets of limiting plates 26 to move closer to each other along the fixed rod 24 until the four sets of limiting plates 26 work together to tightly clamp the sheet metal body 4 on the workbench 1. The suction cup component 27 on the side wall is also tightly attached to the side of the plate body 4, enhancing the fixing effect of the limiting plate 26 on the plate body 4. When the plate body 4 needs to be removed from the worktable 1, the two sets of hydraulic cylinders 21 extend simultaneously. The hydraulic cylinders 21 push the sliding plate 22 towards the fixing rod 24, and then the two sets of connecting rod components 25 drive the two sets of limiting plates 26 to move away from each other until all four sets of limiting plates 26 are away from the plate body 4, and the suction cup component 27 is also separated from the plate body 4. Then the user can remove the plate body 4 from the worktable 1. This setting uses two sets of clamping components 2 to clamp and position the plate body 4 together, and the operation is quick. This allows the plate body 4 to be stably placed on the processing table, which is convenient for subsequent punching work by the punching component 3, improving the working quality of the device.

[0034] After the plate body 4 is fixed on the worktable 1 using the two sets of clamping components 2, the working mode of the cylinder 34 and the punching head drive component 37 can be activated. The cylinder 34 extends and drives the lifting plate 35 to descend, which in turn drives the punching head drive component 37 to press down. The punching head drive component 37 can punch holes in the plate body 4. After punching, the cylinder 34 retracts and drives the lifting plate 35 and the punching head drive component 37 to rise rapidly until they return to their original positions. During the lifting process, the sliding block 36 on one side of the lifting plate 35 is limited to slide within the cavity of the limiting groove 32. The limiting mechanism can improve the stability of the lifting plate 35, thereby improving the stability of the punching head drive component 37 during the lifting process and enhancing the practicality of the device.
