Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of metal shelf production technology, specifically relating to a cutting device for metal shelf production. Background Technology

[0002] Metal shelving is widely used in warehouses, supermarkets, libraries, and other places. Its structural stability and load-bearing capacity are important factors considered during design and production. The uprights of metal shelving typically employ regular irregular shapes to improve support and achieve one-piece molding, thus facilitating production. Cutting is one of the key steps in the production process, directly affecting the dimensional accuracy of the profiles and the accuracy of subsequent assembly.

[0003] Currently, circular saw cutting machines are commonly used cutting equipment in metal shelving production. They typically include a conveying mechanism, a clamping mechanism, and a cutting mechanism. The conveying mechanism mainly transports the profiles to the cutting mechanism for segmented cutting, while the clamping mechanism is responsible for clamping the cut ends of the profiles during the cutting process to prevent displacement. However, some problems exist when using circular saw cutting machines. Traditional circular saw cutting machines often use top or side flat clamping to fix the shelf uprights. However, due to the small contact area between the irregularly shaped uprights and the clamping components during flat clamping, the clamping force is insufficient. During the cutting process, the vibration generated by cutting can easily cause the profiles to shift or jump, which not only affects cutting accuracy but may also create safety hazards. Therefore, this invention proposes a cutting device for metal shelving production that can adaptively conform to the profile surface during clamping, increasing the fixed contact area, ensuring stable clamping of the shelf uprights, reducing cutting errors, and improving accuracy.

[0004] No effective solutions have yet been proposed to address the problems in the relevant technologies. Utility Model Content

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a cutting device for metal shelf production, comprising a base, roller conveyors mounted on both sides of the top of the base, a cutting section located between the two roller conveyors on the base, a cutting saw mounted on one side of the cutting section, flexible side-pressure components mounted on both sides of the cutting saw on the cutting section, the flexible side-pressure component comprising a first bracket, side-pressure cylinders fixed on both sides of the first bracket, the cylinder body of the side-pressure cylinder fixed on the first bracket, a pneumatic pin-type flexible clamp module fixed at the output end of the side-pressure cylinder, an upper pressure component mounted on the base at the roller conveyor, the upper pressure component comprising a second bracket, the second bracket fixed on the base, the roller conveyor passing through the second bracket, a top pressure cylinder mounted on the top of the second bracket, the cylinder body of the top pressure cylinder fixed on the second bracket, and a pressure plate fixed at the output end of the top pressure cylinder.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, both the upper pressure component and the flexible side pressure component are symmetrically arranged with the cutting saw as the center.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a universal water pipe is installed on the top of the first bracket near the cutting saw, with the opening of the universal water pipe facing the cutting point of the cutting saw.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the cutting part has a hollow structure inside and a water-leaking grille is installed on the top.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the base is uniformly fixed with supporting feet at its bottom.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0011] (1) This utility model utilizes a pneumatic pin-type flexible clamp module and an upper pressure component of a flexible side-pressure assembly to ensure that the shelf upright profile fits snugly against the concave and convex parts of the profile side during clamping, increasing the contact area and ensuring that the profile is stably clamped during cutting. This reduces cutting errors caused by profile displacement or movement, and improves cutting accuracy. Because the profile is better fixed during cutting, safety hazards caused by vibration are reduced, thereby improving operator safety. Simultaneously, it reduces rework and material waste caused by inaccurate cutting, thus improving overall production efficiency.

[0012] (2) The cooling system through the universal water pipe can effectively reduce the temperature of the cutting point and reduce the impact of heat on the equipment and the environment. At the same time, the recycling of coolant also meets the requirements of environmental protection and energy saving. The support feet that are evenly fixed at the bottom of the base can improve the stability of the entire device and reduce the impact of equipment vibration on cutting accuracy.

[0017] 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.

[0018] Example

[0019] Please see Figure 1-2 This utility model provides the following technical solution: A cutting device for metal shelf production, comprising a base 1, with roller conveyors 2 installed on both sides of the top of the base 1, a cutting section 3 located between the two roller conveyors 2 on the base 1, a cutting saw 4 installed on one side of the cutting section 3, and flexible side-pressure components located on both sides of the cutting saw 4 on the cutting section 3. The flexible side-pressure components include a first support 5, with side-pressure cylinders 6 fixed on both sides of the first support 5, the cylinder bodies of the side-pressure cylinders 6 fixed on the first support 5, and a pneumatic pin-type flexible clamp module 7 fixed to the output end of the side-pressure cylinders 6. A pressing assembly is installed on the base 1 at the roller conveyor 2. The pressing assembly includes a second bracket 8, which is fixed to the base 1. The roller conveyor 2 passes through the second bracket 8. A pressing cylinder 9 is installed on the top of the second bracket 8, and the cylinder body of the pressing cylinder 9 is fixed to the second bracket 8. A pressure plate 10 is fixed to the output end of the pressing cylinder 9. In this embodiment, by using the pneumatic pin-type flexible clamp module 7 of the flexible side pressing assembly and the pressing assembly, the shelf upright profile can fit against the side when pressed, increasing the contact area, ensuring stable pressing, reducing cutting errors, and improving accuracy. Better fixation reduces vibration safety hazards and improves operational safety. It also reduces rework and material waste and improves production efficiency.

[0020] In order to ensure that the cut part of the profile is subjected to uniform force when it is pressed and fixed, in this embodiment, as a preferred technical solution of the present invention, both the upper pressure component and the flexible side pressure component are symmetrically arranged with the cutting saw 4 as the center.

[0021] In order to ensure the temperature of the profile and saw blade is cooled during cutting, in this embodiment, as a preferred technical solution of the present invention, a universal water pipe 11 is installed on the top of the first bracket 5 near the cutting saw 4, with the opening of the universal water pipe 11 facing the cutting point of the cutting saw 4.

[0022] To facilitate the recovery of coolant and subsequent cleaning, in this embodiment, as a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the cutting part 3 has a hollow structure inside and a water-draining grille 12 is installed on the top.

[0023] In order to improve the stability of the base 1, in this embodiment, as a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the base 1 is uniformly fixed with support feet 13 at the bottom.

[0024] In this embodiment, the pneumatic pin-type flexible clamp module 7 is a known technology that is widely used in daily life. This module is a clamping device that can be quickly adjusted or replaced according to the shape and size of different workpieces. It is usually composed of a series of standardized modules. Its principle is to use elastically extendable pins to automatically adapt to and memorize the surface of the workpiece in order to provide an adaptive clamp for the same workpiece.

[0025] In summary, the technical solution of this utility model achieves linear conveying of the shelf upright profiles using a roller conveyor 2. When the shelf upright profile passes the cutting section 3 of the base 1 and reaches the predetermined cutting length, the side pressure cylinder 6 and the top pressure cylinder 9 simultaneously output power, driving the pneumatic pin-type flexible clamp module 7 and the pressure plate 10 to press the two sides and top surface of the profile respectively, ensuring stable fixation of the cut section. The pneumatic pin-type flexible clamp module 7 effectively increases the fixed contact area by adaptively adhering to the profile surface through multiple pins. Finally, the profile is precisely cut using a cutting saw 4.
