Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machining technology, specifically to a cover forming and stretching device. Background Technology
[0002] Cap forming stretching devices are commonly used in metal processing or plastic molding. They are mainly used to process flat materials (such as metal sheets or plastic sheets) into cap structures of specific shapes (such as bottle caps, container caps, automotive parts, etc.) through stretching, stamping and other processes.
[0003] According to CN214442401U, a stretching mold for a cover is disclosed. This technology discloses "a stretching mold for a cover, including an upper mold base and a lower mold base. The lower end of the upper mold base is connected to an upper template, which has a groove and a through hole for installing an upper mold insert; the lower mold base is connected to a lower support plate via lower pads, which are distributed in a square shape on the lower support plate; a top plate is provided on the lower support plate, which is fixed to the lower support plate by rubber and supports the lower mold base; a lower pad is provided on the lower mold base, a lower template is provided on the lower pad, a lower ejector plate is provided on the outer side of the lower template, and a gap is left between the lower ejector plate and the lower pad; a ball bearing guide post is provided on the upper mold base, and a guide sleeve for cooperating with the ball bearing guide post is provided at a corresponding position on the lower mold base." This technology offers advantages such as "easy use, stable operation, less wrinkling and breakage during stretching, reduced defective products, improved production efficiency, and increased enterprise revenue."
[0004] Existing cap forming and stretching devices typically require manual intervention during production to handle the loading and unloading of raw material sheets and the collection of formed caps. This not only increases labor intensity but also easily leads to low production efficiency and unstable product quality due to inconsistent operation. Especially in continuous production, the speed of manual material handling is difficult to match the machine's forming rhythm, easily causing discontinuous production cycles and affecting overall capacity. In addition, the feeding system of traditional devices often lacks automatic adjustment functions, requiring frequent manual replenishment of raw materials, further reducing the continuity and automation of production.

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.
[0025] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a cap forming and stretching device, including a machine body 1, on which a processing mechanism 2 is provided for cap forming, the processing mechanism 2 including:
[0026] The feeding assembly 21 is located on the top right side of the machine body 1 and is used for feeding sheet metal.
[0027] The pick-and-place assembly 22 includes a Y-axis linear guide 221 slidably mounted on the rear top of the body 1. A slide block 222 is fixed on the slider of the Y-axis linear guide 221. A right mounting base 223 is fixed on the right end of the slide block 222. A right dual-axis cylinder 224 is mounted on the front end of the right mounting base 223. A right mounting bracket 225 is fixed on the output end of the right dual-axis cylinder 224. Right suction cups 226 are mounted on both sides of the lower end of the right mounting bracket 225. A left mounting base 227 is fixed on the left end of the slide block 222. A left dual-axis cylinder 228 is mounted on the front end of the left mounting base 227. A left mounting bracket 229 is fixed on the output end of the left dual-axis cylinder 228. A left suction cup 2210 is mounted in the middle of the lower end of the left mounting bracket 229.
[0028] The molding component 23 is located at the top front of the body 1 and is used for molding the cover.
[0029] In this implementation scheme, the right dual-axis cylinder 224 drives the right mounting bracket 225 to drive the right suction cup 226 to pick up the raw material sheet in the feeding assembly 21. At the same time, the left dual-axis cylinder 228 drives the left mounting bracket 229 to drive the left suction cup 2210 to pick up the shaped cover in the concave mold 232. Then, the standard cylinder 24 drives the pick-and-place assembly 22 to move backward, the Y-axis linear guide 221 drives the slide 222 to move to the left, and the standard cylinder 24 drives the pick-and-place assembly 22 to move forward and reset. This allows the raw material sheet picked up by the right suction cup 226 to be placed into the concave mold 232, and the shaped cover picked up by the left suction cup 2210 to be placed into the cover box 25. The picking up and placing of new materials and finished products can be completed simultaneously, realizing feeding, picking up and placing, forming and collecting, which greatly shortens the production cycle and improves efficiency.
[0030] Specifically, the feeding assembly 21 includes a base frame 211 fixed on the top right side of the machine body 1, a plate box 212 fixed on the upper end of the base frame 211, a Z-axis linear guide rail 213 fixed on the rear end of the top of the base frame 211, a tray 214 fixed on the slider of the Z-axis linear guide rail 213, and the tray 214 is located inside the plate box 212.
[0031] In this embodiment, the raw material sheets can be stacked on the tray 214 inside the sheet box 212, and the tray 214 can be driven upward by the base 231 to gradually raise the material supply, ensuring that the uppermost raw material sheet is always at the adsorption height of the right suction cup 226.
[0032] Specifically, the molding component 23 includes a base 231 fixed to the top front end of the machine body 1, a die 232 installed on the upper end of the base 231, uprights 233 fixed at the four corners of the upper end of the base 231, a top seat 234 fixed between the upper ends of the uprights 233 at the four corners, a hydraulic cylinder 235 installed on the top of the top seat 234, a movable seat 236 installed at the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 235 and slidably installed with the uprights 233, and a punch 237 installed at the lower end of the movable seat 236.
[0033] In this embodiment, after the sheet material is placed on the die 232, the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 235 drives the movable seat 236 to slide along the upright 233. At the same time, the movable seat 236 drives the punch 237 to perform forming processing on the sheet material in the die 232.

[0040] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: First, the raw material boards are stacked on the tray 214 inside the board box 212, and the tray 214 is driven to move upward through the base 231 to gradually lift the material supply, ensuring that the uppermost raw material board is always at the adsorption height of the right suction cup 226.
[0041] The right dual-axis cylinder 224 drives the right mounting bracket 225 to drive the right suction cup 226 to pick up the raw material sheet in the feeding assembly 21. At the same time, the left dual-axis cylinder 228 drives the left mounting bracket 229 to drive the left suction cup 2210 to pick up the shaped cover in the cavity mold 232. Then, the standard cylinder 24 drives the pick-and-place assembly 22 to move backward, the Y-axis linear guide 221 drives the slide 222 to move to the left, and the standard cylinder 24 drives the pick-and-place assembly 22 to move forward and reset. This allows the raw material sheet picked up by the right suction cup 226 to be placed into the cavity mold 232, and the shaped cover picked up by the left suction cup 2210 to be placed into the cover box 25. The picking up and placing of new materials and finished products can be completed simultaneously, realizing feeding, picking up and placing, forming and collecting, which greatly shortens the production cycle and improves efficiency.
