Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sheet metal processing technology, and more specifically, to a multi-functional sheet metal processing platform. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional sheet metal processing platforms are typically specialized equipment designed for a single processing technology, such as dedicated stamping, bending, or riveting platforms. These single-function platforms have several limitations. First, companies requiring multiple sheet metal processing techniques are forced to purchase multiple machines with different functions, significantly increasing equipment costs and consuming considerable production space. Second, in actual production, when production tasks change and processing techniques need to be switched, traditional processing platforms cannot adapt quickly, often requiring significant time for equipment replacement and debugging, leading to low production efficiency and extended production cycles.

[0003] Existing sheet metal processing platforms, when faced with increasingly complex and varied production demands, have revealed numerous problems, including high equipment costs, large space occupation, inflexible process switching, poor tool compatibility, and difficult maintenance. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an innovative, multi-functional sheet metal processing platform that can achieve a modular, detachable worktable design, and is compatible with multiple tool interfaces such as stamping, bending, and riveting, to flexibly adapt to different production needs, improve production efficiency, reduce production costs, and meet the requirements of the rapid development of modern manufacturing. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model proposes a multi-functional sheet metal processing platform.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a solution through the following technical method:

[0006] The multi-functional sheet metal processing platform includes a workbench and multiple tooling mounting plates. The workbench has mounting slots that correspond one-to-one with each of the tooling mounting plates. Different sheet metal processing toolings are mounted on each of the tooling mounting plates. The platform also includes an adjustment mechanism for fixing the tooling mounting plates in the mounting slots.

[0007] When using this multi-functional sheet metal processing platform, first select the fixture mounting plate equipped with the corresponding sheet metal processing tooling according to the specific sheet metal processing task. Place the selected fixture mounting plate into the corresponding mounting slot on the worktable. At this time, use the adjustment mechanism to fix the fixture mounting plate in the mounting slot, so that the tooling is in the working position. During processing, the sheet metal material is placed in the working area corresponding to the fixture, and the operator can operate the sheet metal processing tooling to process the material. When the processing task changes and the processing technology needs to be changed, loosen the fixture mounting plate through the adjustment mechanism, remove it from the mounting slot, replace it with a fixture mounting plate equipped with tooling that conforms to the new processing technology, and fix it in the corresponding mounting slot again using the adjustment mechanism to perform the new processing operation.

[0008] The above setup eliminates the need for companies to purchase dedicated equipment for each sheet metal processing technique. By installing various processing fixtures on different tooling mounting plates, multiple functions are integrated into a single platform, reducing the number of equipment required and thus lowering equipment procurement costs. Compared to multiple single-function devices, the multi-functional sheet metal processing platform occupies significantly less production space, improving space utilization and reducing related costs such as site rental for companies.

[0009] Preferably, the workbench has a storage cavity inside, and each mounting slot is connected to the storage cavity. The adjustment mechanism includes a telescopic rod, one end of which is fixed to the bottom wall of the storage cavity, and the other end is fixed to the lower end face of the tooling mounting plate. The tooling mounting plate located at the mounting slot can retract into the storage cavity under the action of the telescopic rod.

[0010] When it's necessary to change the mounting plate to accommodate different processing techniques, the telescopic rod is activated. The rod extends or retracts, moving the mounting plate vertically. Because the mounting slot is connected to the storage cavity, the mounting plate retracts smoothly into the cavity under the action of the telescopic rod. When a specific mounting plate is needed, the telescopic rod reverses its movement, pushing the mounting plate from the storage cavity into the mounting slot for sheet metal processing. The storage cavity design prevents mounting plates from being placed haphazardly outside the work area, thus saving space and making the work area neater and more organized, effectively improving overall space utilization.

[0011] Preferably, the workbench has a support hole that penetrates through it on its side wall, and the tooling mounting plate has a first connecting hole on its side wall. When the tooling mounting plate moves to the mounting slot under the action of the adjustment mechanism to start working, the first connecting hole and the support hole are coaxial. It also includes a fixing rod that can pass through the first connecting hole and the support hole to support the tooling mounting plate.

[0012] The tooling mounting plate is moved from the storage cavity to the mounting slot using a telescopic rod. When the tooling mounting plate reaches the working position, the first connecting hole on its side wall is coaxial with the support hole on the side wall of the worktable. At this point, a fixing rod is inserted, passing through both the first connecting hole and the support hole. During sheet metal processing, the weight and forces generated by the tooling mounting plate are no longer solely borne by the telescopic rod. The fixing rod shares a significant portion of the force, providing auxiliary support for the tooling mounting plate and preventing all the weight from concentrating on the telescopic rod during processing. This greatly extends the service life of the telescopic rod and reduces equipment downtime and maintenance costs due to telescopic rod failure.

[0013] Preferably, it also includes nuts, and the two ends of the fixing rod are provided with internal threads that mate with the nuts.

[0014] After the fixing rod is inserted into the first connecting hole on the side wall of the tooling mounting plate and the support hole on the side wall of the worktable, the nuts can be screwed into both ends of the fixing rod due to the internal threads at both ends. By rotating the nuts, the nuts are gradually tightened through the engagement between the nuts and the internal threads of the fixing rod. As the nuts tighten, they apply pressure to the side walls of the worktable and the tooling mounting plate, thereby firmly fixing the fixing rod in the support hole and the first connecting hole. This further enhances the stability of the tooling mounting plate during operation and prevents the fixing rod from coming out of the holes due to processing vibrations or other reasons.

[0015] As a preferred option, it also includes a sealing plate. After the tooling mounting plate retracts into the storage cavity under the action of the telescopic rod, the sealing plate is used to close the corresponding mounting slot. A second connecting hole is provided on the side wall of the sealing plate. When the sealing plate closes the corresponding mounting slot, the fixing rod can pass through the second connecting hole and the support hole to support the sealing plate.

[0016] After the tooling mounting plate retracts into the storage cavity under the action of the telescopic rod, the sealing plate is placed in the corresponding mounting slot, aligning the second connecting hole on the side wall of the sealing plate with the support hole on the side wall of the workbench. At this point, the fixing rod, originally used to support the tooling mounting plate, is passed through the second connecting hole and the support hole to support and fix the sealing plate, thus sealing the mounting slot. This process ensures the relative sealing of the storage cavity and guarantees that the sealing plate is stable in the mounting slot, preventing it from easily moving or falling off due to external forces. Closing the mounting slot makes the working area surface smoother and more uniform, preventing unevenness caused by the mounting slot opening from affecting other operations on the workbench.

[0017] As a preferred option, a pull ring is provided on the upper end face of the sealing plate.

[0018] The pull ring design provides operators with a convenient point of leverage. Compared to directly prying or grabbing the edge of the sealing plate with your hands, holding the pull ring is more comfortable and effortless, greatly reducing the difficulty of opening and closing the sealing plate. Even in situations where the mounting slot is not convenient for operation, the opening and closing of the sealing plate can be easily completed, improving operational efficiency.

[0019] Preferably, the upper surface of the sealing plate is provided with a placement groove, and a hinge rod is provided in the placement groove. The pull ring is fixed at both ends of the hinge rod. When the pull ring is put into the placement groove, the upper surface of the hinge rod is flush with the upper surface of the sealing plate.

[0020] When the sealing plate needs to be opened, the operator can insert their finger into the pull ring and pull upwards, causing the hinge rod to rotate around its hinge point with the placement slot, raising the pull ring from the placement slot. The sealing plate can then be easily pulled up using the pull ring. When the sealing plate does not need to be opened and is in the closed installation slot, the pull ring can be pressed into the placement slot. The pull ring will rotate the hinge rod until the pull ring is fully inserted into the placement slot. At this point, the upper surface of the hinge rod is flush with the upper surface of the sealing plate, making the sealing plate surface flat. Attached Figure Description

[0029] To further understand the content of this utility model, a detailed description of this utility model will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments are merely illustrative of this utility model and are not intended to limit it.

[0030] Example

[0031] like Figures 1-6As shown, the multi-functional sheet metal processing platform mainly consists of a workbench 110, multiple tooling mounting plates 120, an adjustment mechanism, a fixing rod 140, a nut 150, and a sealing plate 160. The workbench 110 has mounting slots corresponding to each tooling mounting plate 120, and an internal storage cavity 1102, with each mounting slot communicating with the storage cavity 1102. Different sheet metal processing tooling is mounted on each tooling mounting plate 120. In this embodiment, there are three sets of tooling mounting plates 120, which can respectively mount stamping, bending, and riveting tooling; the specific tooling structure is prior art and is not shown in the accompanying drawings of this embodiment.

[0032] The adjustment mechanism uses a telescopic rod 130, one end of which is fixed to the bottom wall of the storage cavity 1102, and the other end is connected to the lower end face of the tooling mounting plate 120. A through support hole is provided on the side wall of the worktable 110, and a first connecting hole 1201 is provided on the side wall of the tooling mounting plate 120. A fixing rod 140 can pass through both to support the tooling mounting plate 120. The fixing rod 140 has internal threads at both ends to engage with nuts 150. After the tooling mounting plate 120 retracts into the storage cavity 1102, a sealing plate 160 is used to close the corresponding mounting slot. The sealing plate 160 has a second connecting hole 1601 on its side wall, through which the fixing rod 140 can also pass to support the sealing plate 160. The upper end face of the sealing plate 160 has a placement slot 1602 with a hinge rod 1603. A pull ring 170 is fixed to both ends of the hinge rod 1603, and the pull ring 170 can be retracted into the placement slot 1602 to make the surface of the sealing plate 160 flat.

[0033] Its specific usage process and principle are as follows:

[0034] When using this multi-functional sheet metal processing platform, depending on the specific sheet metal processing task, select the fixture mounting plate 120 equipped with the corresponding processing fixture, and move it out of the storage cavity 1102 and fix it at the opening of the mounting slot using the telescopic rod 130. During processing, place the sheet metal material in the working area of ​​the corresponding fixture, and the operator manipulates the fixture for processing. Other mounting slot openings are closed using sealing plates 160.

[0035] If the processing task changes, remove the sealing plate 160 from the corresponding mounting slot opening, and use the telescopic rod 130 to extend the corresponding tooling mounting plate 120 into the mounting slot opening and fix it in place before continuing processing. After the tooling mounting plate 120 is in place, insert the fixing rod 140 and tighten it with the nut 150 to distribute the force on the tooling mounting plate 120. After the tooling mounting plates 120 corresponding to other mounting slots retract into the storage cavity 1102, place the sealing plate 160 in the corresponding mounting slot, and use the fixing rod 140 to pass through the second connecting hole 1601 and the support hole to fix the sealing plate 160.

[0036] The above setup integrates multiple functions onto a single platform, reducing the number of equipment required and lowering equipment procurement costs. It also reduces production space occupancy, improves space utilization, and lowers related costs such as site rental.

[0037] The storage cavity 1102 prevents the tooling mounting plate 120 from being placed haphazardly, making the work area neater and more organized, and improving space utilization. The sealing plate 160 closes the mounting slot, ensuring that the storage cavity 1102 is relatively sealed, protecting the internal tooling and equipment. The fixing rod 140 provides auxiliary support, preventing the weight from being concentrated on the telescopic rod 130, extending its service life, and reducing downtime and maintenance time and costs. The pull ring 170 design makes opening and closing the sealing plate 160 easy and effortless, improving operational efficiency and adapting to different operating scenarios.

[0038] In summary, the above are merely preferred embodiments of this embodiment. All equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the scope of the patent application of this embodiment shall fall within the scope of the patent of this embodiment.
