Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of stone curtain wall processing technology, and in particular to a grooving device for curtain wall production and processing. Background Technology

[0002] Stone curtain walls are a building envelope system consisting of natural or artificial stone panels and supporting structures (such as beams, columns, and steel structures). They do not bear the load of the main structure but have the ability to move or deform relative to the main structure. They are widely used for the exterior wall decoration of modern high-rise buildings and public facilities.

[0003] Before installation, grooves need to be cut on both sides of the sheet metal to ensure a reliable connection with the metal hangers in the dry-hanging system. Currently, the industry is gradually shifting from traditional manual handheld angle grinder grooving to automated equipment to improve processing accuracy and operational safety.

[0004] However, existing automatic grooving equipment can only groove one side of the board. When processing the other side, the board orientation needs to be manually adjusted or re-clamped. This not only results in low processing efficiency, but also makes the edges of the board prone to bumping or even breaking during handling and turning, affecting the yield and operational safety. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a grooving device for curtain wall production and processing. It eliminates the need to change the stone material, enables integrated grooving operations, significantly shortens processing time, and greatly improves processing efficiency. Furthermore, the spacing between each pair of cutting blades is adjustable to adapt to different grooving requirements.

[0006] The technical solution adopted to solve the above technical problems is: a grooving device for curtain wall production and processing, including a frame, a plate, a sliding frame and cutting blades. The sliding frame is horizontally reciprocatingly connected to the frame. The upper side of the sliding frame supports the plate. A pair of cutting blades are respectively arranged on both sides of the frame. The two pairs of cutting blades are located on both sides of the sliding direction of the sliding frame. The cutting blades rotate to cut grooves in the plate. The two pairs of cutting blades are linked together. The spacing between each pair of cutting blades is adjustable.

[0007] Furthermore, it also includes a rotating shaft, a slider, a main shaft, a main motor, bushings, a splined shaft, and connecting parts. The rotating shaft is fixedly connected to each of the cutting blades, and the slider is connected to each of the rotating shafts. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the slider, and the slider is slidably connected to the frame.

Each bushing has a splined shaft slidably connected to both ends, and each splined shaft end is linked to the corresponding rotating shaft through a bevel gear set. One end of the connecting part is rotatably connected to the corresponding rotating shaft, and the other end is rotatably connected to the corresponding splined shaft.

[0008] Furthermore, it also includes guide rods and bidirectional lead screws. Guide rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the frame, and a pair of corresponding sliders are slidably sleeved on the guide rods. Bidirectional lead screws are rotatably connected to both sides of the frame, and a pair of corresponding sliders are threadedly sleeved on the bidirectional lead screws.

[0009] Furthermore, it also includes rollers, a backing plate, a one-way lead screw, an auxiliary motor, a spur gear, a rack, and clamps. Multiple rollers are rotatably connected to the upper side of the sliding frame, and the plate is supported by the rollers. The backing plate is slidably connected to the frame. One end of the one-way lead screw is rotatably connected to the backing plate, and the one-way lead screw is screwed to the frame. The auxiliary motor is connected inside the sliding frame, and the spur gear is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the auxiliary motor. Racks mesh on both sides of the gear. The clamps are fixedly connected to two racks in a corresponding manner. The lower side of the clamps is higher than the upper surface of the rollers, and the plate is clamped between the two clamps.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a limiting wheel, which is connected to the corresponding rotating shaft. The limiting wheel is coaxially arranged with the cutting blade and cooperates with the side of the plate.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a clearance groove and a protective cover. The sliding frame is provided with a corresponding clearance groove, which cooperates with the rotating shaft and the slider. Protective covers are fixedly connected to both sides of the frame, and the cutting blade is located inside the corresponding protective cover.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model uses a sliding frame to move the stone.

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0021] like Figures 1-6 As shown in the figure, the grooving device for curtain wall production and processing provided in this embodiment includes a frame 1, a plate 2, a sliding frame 3 and a cutting blade 4. The sliding frame 3 is horizontally reciprocatingly connected to the frame 1. The upper side of the sliding frame 3 supports the plate 2. A pair of cutting blades 4 are respectively arranged on both sides of the frame 1. The two pairs of cutting blades 4 are located on both sides of the sliding direction of the sliding frame 3. The cutting blades 4 rotate to cut grooves in the plate 2. The two pairs of cutting blades 4 are linked together. The spacing between each pair of cutting blades 4 is adjustable.

[0022] In the above embodiments, the stone is moved by the sliding frame 3. After the plate 2 is clamped once, it first abuts against the two cutting blades 4 on one side to make a groove, and then slides in the opposite direction to make a groove on the other side. The four cutting blades 4 rotate in linkage. There is no need to change the stone. The grooving operation can be carried out in one piece, which greatly shortens the processing time and significantly improves the processing efficiency. Moreover, the spacing between each pair of cutting blades 4 is adjustable, which can adapt to different grooving requirements.

[0023] Specifically, it also includes a rotating shaft 5, a slider 6, a main shaft 7, a main motor 8, a bushing 9, a splined shaft 10, and a connector 11. The rotating shaft 5 is fixedly connected to the cutting blade 4 in a one-to-one correspondence. The slider 6 is connected to the rotating shaft 5 in a one-to-one correspondence. The rotating shaft 5 is rotatably connected to the slider 6, and the slider 6 is slidably connected to the frame 1. The main shaft 7 is rotatably connected to the frame 1, and the main motor 8 is connected to the frame 1. The main shaft 7 is linked to the output shaft of the main motor 8 through a bevel gear set. A bushing 9 is set at each end of the main shaft 7. The bushing 9 is rotatably connected to the frame 1 and is linked to the main shaft 7 through a bevel gear set. Each bushing 9 has a splined shaft 10 slidably connected to both ends. Each splined shaft 10 is linked to the corresponding rotating shaft 5 at its end through a bevel gear set. One end of the connector 11 is rotatably connected to the corresponding rotating shaft 5, and the other end is rotatably connected to the corresponding splined shaft 10.

[0024] In the above embodiments, the main motor 8 rotates, driving the main shaft 7 to rotate. The main shaft 7 drives the bushings 9 on both sides to rotate, and the bushings 9 drive the corresponding spline shaft 10 to rotate. The spline shaft 10 drives the corresponding rotating shaft 5 to rotate. Thus, the rotation operation of four cutting blades 4 is realized through one drive source. Unlike the traditional multiple motors, this can effectively reduce costs and improve the reliability of the equipment. Through the setting of spline shaft 10 and bushing 9, the spline shaft 10 slides in the bushing 9, thereby realizing the spacing adjustment operation of the corresponding two cutting blades 4, so that the device can adapt to different grooving requirements.

[0025] Specifically, it also includes guide rods 12 and bidirectional lead screws 13. Guide rods 12 are fixedly connected to both sides of the frame 1, and a pair of corresponding sliders 6 are slidably sleeved on the guide rods 12. Bidirectional lead screws 13 are rotatably connected to both sides of the frame 1, and a pair of corresponding sliders 6 are threadedly sleeved on the bidirectional lead screws 13.

[0026] In the above embodiments, by rotating the bidirectional lead screw 13, the two corresponding sliders 6 are brought closer or further apart, thereby realizing the movement of the two corresponding cutting blades 4 closer or further apart, and realizing the spacing adjustment operation. The guide rod 12 makes the sliding of the sliders 6 more stable.

[0027] Specifically, it also includes rollers 14, a backing plate 15, a one-way screw 16, an auxiliary motor 17, a spur gear 18, a rack 19, and clamps 20. Multiple rollers 14 are rotatably connected to the upper side of the sliding frame 3, and the plate 2 is supported by the rollers 14. The backing plate 15 is slidably connected to the frame 1. One end of the one-way screw 16 is rotatably connected to the backing plate 15, and the one-way screw 16 is screwed to the frame 1. The auxiliary motor 17 is connected inside the sliding frame 3. The spur gear 18 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the auxiliary motor 17. Racks 19 are meshed on both sides of the gear. The clamps 20 are fixedly connected to the two racks 19 one-to-one. The lower side of the clamps 20 is higher than the upper surface of the rollers 14, and the plate 2 is clamped between the two clamps 20.

[0028] In the above embodiments, the roller 14 facilitates the loading and unloading of the stone slab 2. The auxiliary motor 17 drives the spur gear 18 to rotate, and the spur gear 18 drives the racks 19 on both sides to move, so that the clamps 20 on both sides move closer to each other to clamp the stone slab 2. By moving the back and forth of the backing plate 15, this device is suitable for slabs 2 of different sizes. The amount of movement of the clamps 20 can be achieved by controlling the rotation of the auxiliary motor 17 through the control system, or by setting pressure sensors and displacement sensors on the clamps 20 to achieve adaptive clamping operation of the clamps 20 for slabs 2 of different sizes. All of the above operations can be achieved by existing technologies.

[0029] Specifically, it also includes a limiting wheel 21, which is connected to the corresponding rotating shaft 5. The limiting wheel 21 is coaxially arranged with the cutting blade 4 and cooperates with the side of the plate 2.

[0030] In the above embodiments, when cutting and grooving, the limiting wheel 21 abuts against the side of the stone slab 2, and the limiting wheel 21 limits the depth of the grooving.

[0031] Specifically, it also includes a clearance groove 22 and a protective cover 23. The sliding frame 3 is provided with a corresponding clearance groove 22. The clearance groove 22 cooperates with the rotating shaft 5 and the slider 6. Protective covers 23 are fixedly connected to both sides of the frame 1. The cutting blade 4 is located inside the corresponding protective cover 23.

[0032] In the above embodiments, the placement of the clearance groove 22 facilitates the reciprocating movement of the sliding frame 3 without interference, and the protective cover 23 effectively shields the cutting disc 4, further improving the safety of the device.

[0033] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When grooving the side of the stone slab 2, first adjust the position of the backing plate 15 and the spacing of the cutting blade 4 according to the size of the stone slab 2.

[0034] Rotating the one-way lead screw 16 causes the backing plate 15 to move back and forth to accommodate different sizes of sheet metal 2. Rotating the two-way lead screws 13 on both sides causes the corresponding sliders 6 to move closer or further away from each other, and causes the two corresponding cutting blades 4 to move closer or further away from each other, thereby adjusting the grooving position according to the size of the sheet metal 2. During this process, the sliders 6 drive the rotating shaft 5 to move, the rotating shaft 5 drives the cutting blades 4 and the limiting wheel 21 to move, and the rotating shaft 5 drives the corresponding bevel gear set and spline shaft 10 to move through the connecting piece 11. The spline shaft 10 slides in the corresponding bushing 9.

[0035] After adjustment, place the stone slab 2 on the sliding frame 3 and move it easily with the rollers 14 so that the stone slab 2 rests against the backing plate 15. Then, the auxiliary motor 17 moves to drive the spur gear 18 to rotate. The spur gear 18 drives the racks 19 on both sides to move. The two clamps 20 come together and clamp the slab 2. After the clamping is stable, the auxiliary motor 17 stops running and the main motor 8 starts running. The main motor 8 drives the main shaft 7 to rotate through the bevel gear set. The main shaft 7 drives the bushings 9 on both sides to rotate through the bevel gear set. The bushings 9 drive the corresponding spline shaft 10 to rotate. The spline shaft 10 drives the corresponding rotating shaft 5 to rotate through the bevel gear set, so that the four cutting blades 4 rotate synchronously.

[0036] Manual or electric drive causes the sliding frame 3 to slide to one side first, and the plate 2 abuts against the rotating cutting blade 4 to perform grooving until the side of the plate 2 abuts against the limiting wheel 21 to limit the grooving depth. Then the sliding frame 3 slides in the opposite direction to the other side, and the pair of cutting blades 4 on the other side perform grooving operation.

[0037] During the grooving process, existing water spraying mechanisms can be used for cooling and dust reduction.

[0038] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model.
