Description
Technical Field

[0002] Bicycles are not only a traditional means of transportation, but also essential equipment for fitness, travel, and other sports. Therefore, consumers have higher demands for bicycle performance, comfort, and personalization. To meet these demands, bicycle manufacturers need to continuously improve product design and manufacturing processes. Electric bikes, as a convenient mode of transportation, are also experiencing growing market demand. Therefore, electric bike manufacturers also need to improve the practicality and functionality of their bikes. In the production of both bicycles and electric bikes, drilling holes in the front fork is a key process. In the front fork production process, the processing of these holes has begun to be handled by automated equipment.
[0003] Currently, there are some fork drilling devices, including a base, a limiting plate, a fixing component, and a drilling component. The fixing component and the drilling component are both set on the base. The limiting plate is set on the outer periphery of the base to limit the position of the drilling component, and the drilling component drills holes in the fork. However, the above setup allows the position of the fork to move freely within the area restricted by the limiting plate, resulting in problems such as the fork deviating from the predetermined drilling position, low drilling accuracy, and high drilling difficulty. At the same time, if a more stable drilling is desired, manual intervention is required to manually fix the position of the fork in order to achieve more accurate drilling.

[0045] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0046] This embodiment provides a front fork processing system applicable to bicycle and electric vehicle manufacturing, for producing front forks 1. In this embodiment, the front fork processing system includes a front fork assembly device and a front fork drilling device. The front fork assembly device can precisely and quickly assemble various front fork 1 components to form a complete front fork 1. The front fork drilling device can accurately drill various mounting holes and positioning holes at designated locations according to design requirements, meeting the needs of connecting and installing the front fork 1 with other components. This achieves the transformation from individual components to a fully functional front fork 1, ensuring product consistency and quality stability, and enabling mass production.
[0047] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the front fork 1 includes a column 11, a fork column 12, and an axle 13. One end of the fork column 12 is connected to the column 11, and the other end of the fork column 12 is connected to the axle 13.
[0048] To fix the front fork 1, high-precision drilling is achieved while reducing drilling difficulty, such as... Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the fork drilling device includes a base 2, a drilling unit 4, and a fixing unit 3. The drilling unit 4 is disposed on the base 2 and is used to drill holes in the fork 1. The fixing unit 3 includes a fixing seat 33, a column limiting component 32, and a wheel axle limiting component 31. The fixing seat 33 is disposed on the base 2, and both the column limiting component 32 and the wheel axle limiting component 31 are disposed on the fixing seat 33. The column 11 can be radially limited by the column limiting component 32, and the wheel axle 13 can be axially limited by the wheel axle limiting component 31. Since the column limiting component 32 restricts the displacement of the fork 1 in the horizontal direction (i.e., the direction parallel to the fixing seat 33) and the vertical direction (i.e., the direction perpendicular to the fixing seat 33), and the wheel axle limiting component 31 restricts the horizontal displacement of the fork 1, the displacement of the fork 1 in both the horizontal and vertical directions is effectively limited. This allows the fork 1 to be stably fixed to the fixing unit 3, reducing the wobbling or movement of the fork 1 during the drilling process. With the fork 1 stably fixed, the drilling unit 4 will not experience any deviation in the drilling position due to the movement of the fork 1 when drilling, thus improving drilling accuracy. The stable fork 1 also makes it easier for the operator to control the drilling equipment, eliminating concerns about its movement and reducing operational difficulty. Due to the improved drilling accuracy and reduced drilling difficulty, operators can complete drilling tasks more quickly and accurately, reducing the time spent on repeated drilling or corrections, thereby improving drilling efficiency.
[0049] Preferably, such as Figures 2-3As shown, in this embodiment, the wheel axle limiting assembly 31 includes a first fixing member 311, a first limiting block 312, and a first driving member 313. The first fixing member 311 is disposed on the fixing base 33, and a first limiting groove is formed on the first fixing member 311. At least a portion of the wheel axle 13 can be disposed in the first limiting groove. The first limiting block 312 can abut against the wheel axle 13 to limit the wheel axle 13 between the first limiting block 312 and the groove wall of the first limiting groove. The fixed end of the first driving member 313 is connected to the fixing base 33, and the output end of the first driving member 313 is connected to the first limiting block 312. The first driving member 313 is used for... The first driving member 313 drives the first limiting block 312 to move closer to or away from the first fixing member 311, thus restricting at least part of the wheel axle 13 within the first fixing member 311 and achieving axial positioning of the fork 1 along the column 11. The first driving member 313 can drive the first limiting block 312 to move closer to or away from the first fixing member 311, facilitating the insertion and removal of the wheel axle 13. When it is necessary to fix the fork 1, the first driving member 313 drives the first limiting block 312 to abut against the wheel axle 13, restricting the movement of the wheel axle 13; when it is necessary to remove the fork 1, the first driving member 313 drives the first limiting block 312 away from the first fixing member 311, facilitating the removal of the wheel axle 13. The wheel axle limiting assembly 31 restricts the horizontal displacement of the fork 1. In conjunction with the column limiting assembly 32, the displacement of the fork 1 in both the horizontal and vertical directions is effectively restricted, thereby enabling it to be stably fixed on the fixing unit 3 and reducing the shaking or movement of the fork 1 during the drilling process. Optionally, in this embodiment, the opening of the first limiting groove faces the extending direction of the column 11. In other embodiments, the opening of the first limiting groove may face other directions, as long as it can limit the movement of the wheel axle 13.
[0050] Optionally, such as Figures 2-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the first driving component 313 is a linear cylinder. The linear cylinder provides a linear driving force, directly pushing the first limiting block 312 to move linearly, causing it to accurately approach or move away from the first fixing component 311, thereby achieving rapid limiting and release of the wheel axle 13. The linear cylinder has a relatively simple structure, without a complex transmission mechanism, and is less prone to failure during long-term use, ensuring the normal operation of the wheel axle limiting assembly 31 and reducing equipment maintenance costs. In other embodiments, the first driving component 313 can also be a hydraulic cylinder or an electric cylinder, as long as it can drive the first limiting component to approach or move away from the first fixing component 311.
[0051] Preferably, such as Figures 2-3As shown, in this embodiment, the column limiting assembly 32 includes a second fixing member 321, a second limiting block 322, and a second driving member 323. The second fixing member 321 is disposed on the fixing base 33, and a second limiting groove is formed on the second fixing member 321. At least a portion of the column 11 can be disposed within the second fixing member 321. The second limiting block 322 can abut against the column 11 to limit the column 11 between the second limiting block 322 and the groove wall of the second limiting groove. The fixed end of the second driving member 323 is connected to the fixing base 33, and the output end of the second driving member 323 is connected to the second limiting block 322. The second driving member 323 is used to drive the second limiting block 322 to move closer to or away from the second fixing member 321. By setting the second limiting groove, a placement space is provided for the column 11, and the column 11 is initially positioned to a preset position, restricting some of its freedom of movement on the horizontal plane. The second limiting block 322 can abut against the column 11 under the action of the second driving member 323, thus restricting the vertical movement of the column 11 from above and preventing it from dislodging from the second fixing member 321, further limiting the radial displacement of the fork 1. The setting of the second driving member 323 allows the second limiting block 322 to move closer to or further away from the second fixing member 321 to be flexibly controlled. When it is necessary to place or remove the fork 1, the second limiting block 322 can be driven away from the second fixing member 321 by the second driving member 323; when drilling, the second limiting block 322 is driven to move closer to the second fixing member 321 to achieve tight limiting of the column 11. The column limiting component 32 restricts the radial displacement of the fork 1 on the column 11. In conjunction with the wheel axle limiting component 31, it effectively limits the displacement of the fork 1 in both the horizontal and vertical directions, ensuring the fork 1 is stably fixed. This reduces the wobbling or movement of the fork 1 during drilling, preventing drilling position deviations caused by fork 1 movement and improving drilling accuracy. Optionally, in this embodiment, the opening of the second limiting groove faces upwards. In other embodiments, the opening of the second limiting groove can face other directions, as long as it can effectively limit the radial movement of the column 11.
[0052] Optionally, such as Figures 2-3As shown, in this embodiment, the second driving component 323 is a rotary clamping cylinder. The rotary clamping cylinder can precisely control the movement of the second limiting block 322. Through accurate rotation angle and displacement, it achieves precise approach or distance from the second fixing component 321, ensuring that the column 11 is accurately limited within the second fixing component 321, thus improving the accuracy and reliability of the fork 1's fixation. The rotary clamping cylinder is also easy to integrate with an automated control system, enabling automated operation of the entire drilling process. The action of the rotary clamping cylinder can be controlled by programming, working collaboratively with other components such as the drilling unit 4 to improve production efficiency and product quality consistency. In other embodiments, the second driving component 323 can also be an electric rotary clamping mechanism or a mechanical linkage rotary clamping mechanism, as long as it can limit the position of the column 11.
[0053] Preferably, such as Figures 2-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the column limiting assembly 32 also includes a radial clamp 324, which is disposed in the second limiting groove. The radial clamp 324 is detachably connected to the second fixing member 321 and can abut against the column 11. Since the radial clamp 324 is detachably connected to the second fixing member 321, the column limiting assembly 32 can remove the original radial clamp 324 and replace it with a radial clamp 324 of different size, structure or material according to different specifications, shapes or process requirements of the column 11. This achieves adaptation and optimized limiting for different types of columns 11. At the same time, when the radial clamp 324 is worn, damaged or aged, it can be easily removed from the second fixing member 321 and replaced with a new radial clamp 324 to ensure that the limiting function of the column limiting assembly 32 is always in good condition. By replacing different radial clamps 324, the column limiting assembly 32 can adapt to various specifications and types of fork 1 columns 11, improving the versatility of the drilling equipment and reducing the cost and space occupation of equipping multiple fixing devices required for different product specifications. Since the radial clamps 324 can abut against the column 11, the column limiting assembly 32 can restrict the horizontal movement of the column 11, ensuring that the column 11 is in an accurate position and providing a precise positioning reference for subsequent drilling operations. By precisely limiting the radial position of the column 11, the swaying and displacement of the fork 1 during drilling are reduced, thereby improving drilling accuracy, ensuring the accuracy of the drilling position, and reducing the scrap rate caused by drilling position deviations.
[0054] Optionally, in this embodiment, the radial locking member 324 is an elastic member. The elastic member is soft and elastic, capable of tightly conforming to the outer surface of the upright 11. Regardless of whether the shape of the upright 11 is regular or slightly irregular, it can make full contact with it, achieving good radial limiting. During the drilling process, it can effectively buffer the vibration and impact generated during drilling, reducing its impact on the upright 11 and the entire fixing assembly, further reducing the sway of the fork 1. In other embodiments, the radial locking member 324 can also be a cast steel part, as long as it can accurately position the fork 1. Optionally, in this embodiment, the elastic member is made of silicone material. In other embodiments, the elastic member can also be made of rubber or plastic, as long as it can provide better radial limiting for the fork 1.
[0055] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the punching unit 4 includes a third driving member 41 and a punching assembly 42. The third driving member 41 is mounted on the base 2, and the punching assembly 42 is connected to the third driving member 41. The third driving member 41 is used to drive the punching assembly 42 to move out of or into the punching working position. The third driving member 41 can precisely drive the punching assembly 42 to move out of or into the punching working position, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of the punching position, guaranteeing the precision requirements of the punching of the fork 1, thereby improving product quality and stability. The automated punching process reduces manual operation steps and saves time. Compared with manual punching, it can complete the punching work of a large number of forks 1 in a shorter time, improving overall production efficiency. By operating the punching unit 4 with precise control of the driving member, the position, depth, and other parameters of each punching can be kept highly consistent, avoiding the errors and inconsistencies that may occur with manual punching, thereby improving the stability and consistency of product quality and reducing the defect rate.
[0056] Optionally, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, the third driving component 41 is a robotic arm with multiple degrees of freedom, capable of flexible movement and positioning in three-dimensional space. It can precisely deliver the punching component 42 to the designated position for punching according to the different shapes, sizes, and punching requirements of the fork 1. Even fork 1 with complex shapes or irregularly distributed holes, it can accurately complete the punching task. The robotic arm's programming flexibility allows it to quickly adapt to product changes and production process adjustments. When different models of forks 1 need to be produced or the punching scheme needs to be changed, only the robotic arm's program needs to be modified, without large-scale hardware modifications, greatly improving the flexibility of the production line and reducing production conversion costs. The robotic arm can move and operate with extremely high precision, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of the punching position, and can stably meet production requirements. In other embodiments, the third driving component 41 can also be an electric push rod, etc., as long as it can drive the punching component 42 to accurately punch the fork 1.
[0057] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the punching assembly 42 includes a connector 422 and multiple punching elements 421 of various sizes. The connector 422 is connected to the output end of the third drive element 41, and all the punching elements 421 are connected to the connector 422. The third drive element 41 can drive any punching element 421 to the punching working position. Since the punching assembly 42 includes multiple punching elements 421 of different sizes, and the third drive element 41 can drive any punching element 421 to the punching working position, holes of different diameters can be punched on the same fork 1, meeting the diverse needs of the fork 1 in terms of structure and assembly. Multiple punching elements 421 are integrated on a connector 422. Driven by the third drive element 41, continuous processing of multiple holes can be achieved in one positioning, reducing the number of clamping operations and positioning time of the fork 1 during processing, and improving the integration level and production efficiency of the punching operation.
[0058] Optionally, in this embodiment, the punching assembly 42 includes three punching elements 421, which are two RAX-271E electric spindles and one RA-151E electric spindle. All three spindles are driven by an EM-3030T motor, enabling rapid completion of the punching operation on the front fork 1. In other embodiments, the punching assembly 42 may include two, four, or five punching elements 421, as long as they can accurately and efficiently punch holes in the front fork 1.
[0059] Optionally, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, in the horizontal direction, the output end of the drilling component 421 is perpendicular to the output direction of the drive component and faces outwards. This allows for lateral drilling of workpieces of different shapes and structures while still enabling vertical drilling, expanding the processing range and enabling the equipment to adapt to the production needs of more types of products. This enhances processing flexibility and versatility, reducing the need for equipment replacement or large-scale adjustments due to changes in product structure. The outward orientation of the drilling component 421 makes it easier for operators to install, replace, and perform routine maintenance and repairs, eliminating the need to disassemble complex components or enter confined spaces. This reduces operational difficulty and maintenance costs, improving the operability and maintainability of the equipment.
[0060] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the fork drilling device also includes a housing 5, which is connected to the base 2. The housing 5 covers the fixing unit 3 and the drilling unit 4, preventing the internal components such as the fixing unit 3 and the drilling unit 4 from being affected by external factors, avoiding damage, wear, or performance degradation of the internal components, and extending the service life of the fork drilling device. The housing 5 can isolate the electrical components and high-speed moving parts inside the device from the operator, reducing the risk of electric shock, injury from moving parts, and other safety accidents. The housing 5 can prevent dust generated during the drilling process from spreading into the surrounding environment, which helps to keep the work area clean, reduces dust pollution to the air, and protects the operator's respiratory system.
[0061] Preferably, in this embodiment, the fork drilling device further includes a dust collection mechanism, which is located inside the housing 5. The dust collection mechanism can collect the dust during the operation of the fork drilling device to ensure a clean working environment, reduce the harm of dust to the health of operators, and also prevent dust accumulation from affecting the normal operation and service life of the fork drilling device. It can also prevent dust from spreading to the external environment of the housing and causing environmental pollution.
[0062] It should be noted that the dust collection mechanism is an existing structure. Setting up a dust collection mechanism in the front fork drilling device is a conventional setup in the field. In this embodiment, any connection method in the prior art can be used to connect to the outer shell 5, as long as the dust removal function of the space inside the outer shell 5 is achieved. No further details will be provided.
[0063] Preferably, in this embodiment, the fork drilling device further includes a control unit, which is electrically connected to both the fixing unit 3 and the drilling unit 4, enabling control of both units. The control unit can precisely control the fixing unit 3 to fix the fork 1 in an accurate position, ensuring drilling position accuracy. Simultaneously, the control unit can precisely control the drill bit of the drilling unit 4 to drill at a designated position with minimal deviation, meeting the high-precision drilling position requirements of different fork 1 models. The control unit can control both the fixing unit 3 and the drilling unit 4, automating the entire drilling process.
[0064] It should be noted that the control unit is an existing structure, and setting up a control unit in a front fork drilling device is a conventional setup in the field. In this embodiment, any existing control system and communication harness can be used, and any existing connection method can be used to connect to the fixing unit 3 and the drilling unit 4 respectively. As long as the fixing unit 3 can be controlled to fix the front fork 1 and the drilling unit 4 can be controlled to drill holes in the front fork 1, it will not be described in detail.
[0065] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
