[0033] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4As shown, this embodiment provides an automated device with trimming and grooving functions, including a workbench 1 and a trimming and grooving mechanism. The trimming and grooving mechanism is located on one side of the workbench 1. The trimming and grooving mechanism includes an X-axis drive mechanism 4 and two sets of turning heads 706 for grooving or trimming the sheet metal. The two turning heads 706 can be in the same straight line. A height adjustment structure is installed on the X-axis drive mechanism 4, and a Y-axis drive mechanism is installed on the height adjustment structure. A spacing adjustment mechanism for adjusting the distance between the two turning heads 706 is provided on the Y-axis drive mechanism.

[0035] This utility model features a trimming and grooving mechanism that can groove the board material as needed, or trim the top and bottom of the board material simultaneously. A Y-axis drive mechanism allows for adjustment of the grooving and trimming depths to accommodate different splicing requirements. A height adjustment structure and spacing adjustment components allow for adjustment of the lathe head's spacing and height, enabling trimming and grooving operations on boards of varying thicknesses, thus providing wide applicability.

[0036] Specifically, the X-axis drive mechanism 4 includes a base 401, on which a first slide rail 402 and a rack 403 are fixedly mounted respectively. A first slider 404 is slidably disposed on the first slide rail 402. A first mounting base 405 is fixedly mounted on the first slider 404. A first motor 406 is fixedly mounted on the first mounting base 405. A gear 407 is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the shaft of the first motor 406, and the gear 407 meshes with the rack 403.

[0037] In use, the design described above controls the rotation of the shaft of the first motor 406 to rotate forward or backward, thereby enabling the rack 403 and gear 407 to drive the first motor 406 to reciprocate along the length of the base 401.

[0038] Specifically, the height adjustment structure includes a second motor 500, an internally threaded tube 501, and a lifting screw 502. The second motor 500 is fixedly mounted on the first mounting base 405, and the lifting screw 502 is rotatably mounted on the first mounting base 405. A first bevel gear is fixedly sleeved on the lower end of the lifting screw 502. A second bevel gear is fixedly connected to the shaft of the second motor 500. The first bevel gear meshes with the second bevel gear. A second mounting plate 503 is fixedly connected to the top of the internally threaded tube 501. The upper end of the lifting screw 502 is threaded and rotatably connected to the inside of the internally threaded tube 501. A guide post 505 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second mounting plate 503. A guide sleeve 504 is fixedly connected to the top of the first mounting base 405. The lower end of the guide post 505 is slidably inserted into the inside of the guide sleeve 504.

[0039] The above design controls the second motor 500 to rotate forward or backward, which in turn drives the lifting screw 502 to rotate forward or backward via the first and second bevel gears, thereby raising or lowering the second mounting plate 503. Ultimately, this allows for adjustment of the height of the two turning heads 706, enabling the turning of plates of different thicknesses.

[0040] Specifically, the Y-axis drive mechanism includes a third mounting plate 600, a second slide rail 602 and an electric push rod 603 are fixedly connected to the top of the second mounting plate 503, a second slider 601 is slidably connected to the second slide rail 602, the second slider 601 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the third mounting plate 600, a fixing block 604 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the third mounting plate 600, and the piston rod end of the electric push rod 603 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing block 604.

[0041] In use, the above design allows the turning head 706 to move closer to the sheet metal by extending the piston rod of the electric push rod 603, thereby increasing the cutting depth, i.e., increasing the grooving depth and trimming depth of the sheet metal. Conversely, by retracting the piston rod of the electric push rod 603, the turning head 706 can be moved away from the sheet metal, thereby decreasing the cutting depth, i.e., decreasing the grooving depth and trimming depth of the sheet metal.

[0042] Specifically, the spacing adjustment mechanism includes a support frame 700, a third motor 701 fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 700, a second lead screw 702 rotatably connected to the inner side of the support frame 700, the two ends of the second lead screw 702 having opposite thread directions, the upper end of the second lead screw 702 being fixedly connected to the shaft of the third motor 701 via a coupling, the two ends of the second lead screw 702 being respectively threadedly rotatably connected to a first movable seat 703 and a second movable seat 704, the inner sides of both ends of the support frame 700 being fixedly connected to guide rods 707, the first movable seat 703 and the second movable seat 704 being slidably sleeved on their corresponding guide rods 707, the ends of the first movable seat 703 and the second movable seat 704 away from the second lead screw 702 being fixedly connected to a fourth motor 705, the shaft of the fourth motor 705 being bolted to a turning head 706.

[0043] In the above design, when grooving is required on the sheet metal, the shaft of the third motor 701 is controlled to rotate, and the two turning heads 706 are adjusted to be on the same straight line. Then, the second motor 500 is controlled to rotate, and the turning head 706 is adjusted to the required grooving height. Then, the fourth motor 705 is started, and the piston rod of the electric push rod 603 is controlled to extend, pushing the turning head 706 toward the sheet metal. Then, the first motor 406 is started, which drives the turning head 706 to move laterally along the X-axis to quickly groove the sheet metal.

[0044] When trimming the sheet metal, first control the second motor 500 to move the turning head 706 up and down, adjusting the turning head 706 to the middle position of the sheet metal thickness. Then control the shaft of the third motor 701 to rotate, adjusting the two turning heads 706 to the lower and upper ends of the sheet metal respectively. Then start the fourth motor 705, and control the piston rod of the electric push rod 603 to extend, pushing the turning head 706 towards the sheet metal. Then start the first motor 406, which drives the turning head 706 to move laterally along the X-axis, performing trimming operations on the upper and lower ends of the sheet metal simultaneously, thus quickly processing the male end.

[0045] In this embodiment, a crossbeam 101 is fixedly installed on the top of the workbench 1. A clamping assembly is provided at the bottom of the upper end of the crossbeam 101. The clamping assembly includes several clamping cylinders 2, which are equidistantly distributed at the bottom of the upper end of the crossbeam 101. A rubber pad is fixedly connected to the bottom of the piston rod of the clamping cylinder 2. By controlling the extension of the piston rod of the clamping cylinder 2, the plate on the workbench 1 can be fixed. By controlling the retraction of the piston rod of the clamping cylinder 2, the plate can be unlocked.

[0046] To make the grooved and trimmed surfaces of the board more flat, an alignment plate 3 is also provided. Both ends of the alignment plate 3 are equipped with lifting cylinders 301. The lifting cylinders 301 are fixedly installed on one side of the crossbeam 101, and the bottom of the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 301 is fixedly connected to the side of the alignment plate 3.

[0047] In use, first attach the surface to be processed to the alignment plate 3, then control the piston rod of the clamping cylinder 2 to extend and fix the plate, then control the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 301 to retract so that the subsequent trimming and grooving mechanism can process the plate. After processing, the piston rod of the clamping cylinder 2 retracts to release the locking of the plate, and then the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 301 extends to align the plate next time.

[0048] In this embodiment, a PLC controller 102 is installed on the crossbeam 101. The solenoid valve for controlling the extension and retraction of the piston rod of the pressing cylinder 2, the solenoid valve for controlling the extension and retraction of the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 301, the first motor 406, the second motor 500, the electric push rod 603, the third motor 701 and the fourth motor 705 are all controlled by the PLC controller 102. In this embodiment, the PLC controller 102 can be a Siemens S7-400 series PLC controller.
