[0018] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0019] Underfloor heating aluminum film grooving and cutting machine, combined with Figure 1As shown, the system includes an operating table 1, on which a grooving die 10 is mounted. Above the grooving die 10, a grooving mechanism is mounted via a bracket 4 to groove the aluminum film. A cutting seat 19 is mounted on the operating table 1 at the front end of the grooving die 10. Above the cutting seat 19, a cutting mechanism is mounted via a bracket 4 to cut the cut aluminum film. A conveying roller 2 is mounted on the operating table 1 behind the grooving die 10 via a bracket to convey the aluminum film. A traction roller 3 is mounted on the operating table 1 in front of the cutting seat 19 via a bracket to pull the aluminum film forward. A conveying motor and a traction motor are mounted on the bracket to drive the conveying roller and the traction roller to rotate, respectively. A PLC controller 20 is mounted on the bracket 4 to control the grooving and cutting operations on the aluminum film. The output of the PLC controller is connected to the input of the grooving mechanism, the cutting mechanism, the conveying motor, and the traction motor, respectively.
[0020] The grooving mechanism includes a crossbeam 5 mounted on a support 4. A grooving cylinder 8 is positioned above the crossbeam 5. The telescopic rod of the grooving cylinder 8 passes through the end of the crossbeam 5 and is connected to a lifting plate 6, which houses an upper grooving mold 7 corresponding to the lower grooving mold 10. The input end of the grooving cylinder is connected to the output end of a PLC controller. The grooving cylinder drives the upper grooving mold to move downwards, performing a grooving operation on the aluminum film conveyed to the lower grooving mold.
[0021] The lower mold 10 and the upper mold 7 are fixed to the operating table 1 and the lifting plate 6 respectively by bolts. Different lower molds and upper molds can be replaced according to the grooving requirements.
[0022] The cutting mechanism includes a crossbeam 5 mounted on a support 4, a cutting cylinder 18 mounted on the crossbeam 5, and a cutting blade 17 corresponding to a cutting seat 19 mounted on the end of the cutting cylinder through the end of the crossbeam 5 and via a blade holder 16. The input end of the cutting cylinder is connected to the output end of a PLC control system. The cutting cylinder drives the cutting blade to move downwards to cut the conveyed aluminum film.
[0023] The top of the lifting plate 6 and the top of the cutter head seat 16 are respectively provided with guide rods 9 passing through the crossbeam 5, which are used to guide the vertical movement of the lifting plate and the cutter head seat.
[0024] The bracket 4 has an inner mounting plate 11. Limit switches 13 are installed on the upper and lower sides of the mounting plate 11. The lifting plate 6 or the cutter head seat 16 has a contact block 15 installed on the outer side via a connecting rod 14. The contact block 15 is located between the two limit switches and is used to limit the up and down movement of the upper die and the cutting blade. The output of the limit switch is connected to the input of the PLC controller.
[0025] The mounting plate 11 has a vertical mounting groove 12. The limit switch 13 is installed in the mounting groove 12 by bolts. The position of the limit switch can be adjusted according to the depth of the groove and the depth of the cut. During the groove and cut, the lifting plate and the cutter head seat drive the contact block to move downward. When it touches the limit switch, it moves in the opposite direction.
[0026] In this invention, when the aluminum film is pressed and cut, the aluminum film is conveyed to the lower die of the pressing groove by the conveying roller. The pressing groove cylinder drives the upper die of the pressing groove to move downward to press grooves into the aluminum film on the lower die. After pressing grooves, the aluminum film continues to be conveyed forward by the traction roller. When cutting is required, the cutting cylinder drives the cutting blade to move downward to cut the aluminum film. This realizes automatic pressing grooves and cutting of aluminum film, improving the efficiency and accuracy of aluminum film pressing groove cutting.
