Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a folding mechanism, specifically a copper strip folding mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Copper strip is a metallic component with electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance. It is mainly used in the production of electrical components, lamp holders, battery caps, buttons, seals, and connectors. In some copper strip production processes, to enhance the strip's strength and save material costs, the edges on both sides are folded into a double layer and pressed tightly; this is called edge folding, ensuring that the edges of the copper strip have a double layer thickness. The conventional edge folding operation is done manually, with the folded edges then manually pressed flat.
[0003] The above-mentioned manual folding and flattening methods can be used in small-scale production, but for large-scale production, such as folding copper strips for electrostatic shielding of transformer coils, where the copper strip length can reach hundreds of meters, manual folding is inefficient and labor-intensive.

[0004] To address the aforementioned shortcomings in the existing technology, this utility model aims to provide a copper strip folding mechanism to improve copper strip folding efficiency, reduce labor intensity for workers, and meet the requirements of large-scale production.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

Each of the first, second, and third roller pressing assemblies includes a pressure roller shaft, a pressure roller sleeved on the pressure roller shaft, an idler roller shaft, and an idler roller sleeved on the idler roller shaft. The axes of the pressure roller shaft and the idler roller shaft are perpendicular to the copper strip conveying direction. The pressure roller and the idler roller are arranged vertically and vertically, forming a pressing gap between them for the copper strip to pass through. There are two pressure rollers and two idler rollers, with one pressure roller at each end of the pressure roller shaft and one idler roller at each end of the idler roller shaft. The output end of the drive assembly is connected to the pressure roller shaft and the idler roller shaft for transmission.
[0008] The pressing gap in the first roller pressing assembly forms an outward folded edge with an obtuse angle between the copper strip edge and the copper strip body; the pressing gap in the second roller pressing assembly forms an inward folded edge with an acute angle between the copper strip edge and the copper strip body; and the pressing gap in the third roller pressing assembly completely presses the copper strip edge and the copper strip body together.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limiting the content protected by this utility model.
[0045] like Figures 1 to 17As shown, this embodiment includes a frame 1, a roller assembly rotatably mounted on the frame 1, and a drive assembly. The roller assembly includes a first pressing assembly 2, a second pressing assembly 3, and a third pressing assembly 4 arranged sequentially along the copper strip conveying direction. In this embodiment, the copper strip is conveyed from front to back. The output end of the drive assembly is connected to the roller assembly. Under the drive of the drive assembly, the first pressing assembly 2, the second pressing assembly 3, and the third pressing assembly 4 roll and press the copper strip to finally complete the edge folding.
[0046] 1. First roller pressing assembly 2;
[0047] like Figure 1 As shown, the first roller pressing assembly 2 includes a pressure roller shaft 6, a pressure roller 5 sleeved on the pressure roller shaft 6, an idler roller shaft 8, and an idler roller 7 sleeved on the idler roller shaft 8. The pressure roller shaft 6 has two pressure rollers 5, and the idler roller shaft 8 has two idler rollers 7. One pressure roller 5 is located at each of the left and right ends of the pressure roller shaft 6, and one idler roller 7 is located at each of the left and right ends of the idler roller shaft 8. The axes of both the pressure roller shaft 6 and the idler roller shaft 8 are perpendicular to the copper strip conveying direction. The ends of both the pressure roller shaft 6 and the idler roller shaft 8 are rotatably connected to the frame 1 via bearings. The rotatable connection methods of the pressure roller shaft 6 and the idler roller shaft 8 to the frame 1, as well as the fixing of the pressure roller 5 on the pressure roller shaft 6 and the idler roller 7 on the idler roller shaft 8, are all existing technologies.
[0048] The pressure roller 5 and the support roller 7 are arranged vertically and vertically, forming a pressing gap between them for the copper strip to pass through. Through the pressing gap in the first roller pressing assembly 2, an outwardly flared edge with an obtuse angle is formed between the edge 24 of the copper strip and the main body 25 of the copper strip. Specifically, as shown... Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the first roller pressing assembly 2 includes a first roller group 9, a second roller group 10, and a third roller group 11 arranged sequentially along the copper strip conveying direction; each of the first roller group 9, the second roller group 10, and the third roller group 11 includes a pressure roller shaft 6, two pressure rollers 5 sleeved on the pressure roller shaft 6, an idler roller shaft 8, and two idler rollers 7 sleeved on the idler roller shaft 8. Figure 2 Only one pressure roller 5 in the first roller group 9 is shown for illustration. The pressure roller 5, idler roller 7, pressure roller shaft 6, and idler roller shaft 8 are not described in detail here. The output end of the drive assembly is connected to the pressure roller shaft 6 and idler roller shaft 8 for driving the pressure roller shaft 6 and idler roller shaft 8 in the first roller group 9, the second roller group 10, and the third roller group 11 to rotate.
[0049] A first pressing gap 17 is formed between the pressure roller 5 and the support roller 7 in the first roller group 9. See Figure 4 A second pressing gap 18 is formed between the pressure roller 5 and the support roller 7 in the second roller group 10, see [reference]. Figure 6 A third pressing gap 19 is formed between the pressure roller 5 and the support roller 7 in the third roller group 11, see [reference]. Figure 8When passing through the first pressing gap 17, the second pressing gap 18, and the third pressing gap 19, the included angles formed between the copper strip edge 24 and the copper strip body 25 are all obtuse angles, and the angles decrease sequentially along the copper strip conveying direction. In this embodiment, the included angle α1 formed between the copper strip edge 24 and the copper strip body 25 when passing through the first pressing gap 17 is 170°. See [reference needed]. Figure 4 , Figure 5 When the second pressing gap 18 has passed, the included angle α2 formed between the copper strip edge 24 and the copper strip body 25 is 140°. (See [reference]). Figure 6 , Figure 7 When the third pressing gap 19 has passed, the included angle α3 formed between the copper strip edge 24 and the copper strip body 25 is 110°. See [reference needed]. Figure 8 , Figure 9 In this embodiment, by changing the roller shape of the pressure roller 5 and the support roller 7, the folding angle of the copper strip when passing through the first pressing gap 17, the second pressing gap 18, and the third pressing gap 19 is gradually transitioned, that is, from 170° to 140° and then to 110°. Compared with folding the copper strip to 110° in one go, this embodiment can ensure that the copper strip folding edge is flatter and that the copper strip is not damaged.
[0050] II. Second Roller Press Assembly 3;
[0051] The second roller pressing assembly 3 includes a pressure roller shaft 6, a pressure roller 5 sleeved on the pressure roller shaft 6, an idler roller shaft 8, and an idler roller 7 sleeved on the idler roller shaft 8. This part is similar to the first roller pressing assembly 2. The difference between the second and third roller pressing assemblies is that the pressing gap formed between the pressure roller 5 and the idler roller 7 in the second roller pressing assembly 3 creates an inwardly tapered edge with an acute angle between the copper strip edge 24 and the copper strip body 25.
[0052] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the second roller pressing assembly 3 includes a fourth roller group 12, a fifth roller group 13, and a sixth roller group 14 arranged sequentially along the copper strip conveying direction. Each of the fourth roller group 12, fifth roller group 13, and sixth roller group 14 includes a pressure roller shaft 6, two pressure rollers 5 sleeved on the pressure roller shaft 6, an idler roller shaft 8, and two idler rollers 7 sleeved on the idler roller shaft 8. Details regarding the pressure rollers 5, idler rollers 7, pressure roller shaft 6, and idler roller shaft 8 are not described here. The output ends of the drive assembly are all connected to the pressure roller shaft 6 and idler roller shaft 8 for driving the pressure roller shaft 6 and idler roller shaft 8 in the fourth roller group 12, fifth roller group 13, and sixth roller group 14 to rotate.
[0053] A fourth pressing gap 20 is formed between the pressure roller 5 and the support roller 7 in the fourth roller group 12, see [link / reference]. Figure 10 A fifth pressing gap 21 is formed between the pressure roller 5 and the support roller 7 in the fifth roller group 13, see [reference]. Figure 12A sixth pressing gap 22 is formed between the pressure roller 5 and the support roller 7 in the sixth roller group 14, see [reference]. Figure 14 When passing through the fourth pressing gap 20, the fifth pressing gap 21, and the sixth pressing gap 22, the included angles formed between the copper strip edge 24 and the copper strip body 25 are all acute angles, and the angles decrease sequentially along the copper strip conveying direction. In this embodiment, the included angle α4 formed between the copper strip edge 24 and the copper strip body 25 when passing through the fourth pressing gap 20 is 75°. See [reference needed]. Figure 10 , Figure 11 When the fifth pressing gap 21 has passed, the included angle α5 between the edge 24 of the copper strip and the main body 25 of the copper strip is 50°. See [reference needed]. Figure 12 , Figure 13 When the sixth pressing gap 22 has passed, the included angle α6 formed between the copper strip edge 24 and the copper strip body 25 is 20°. See [reference needed]. Figure 14 , Figure 15 In this embodiment, by changing the shape of the pressure roller 5 and the support roller 7, the folding angle of the copper strip when passing through the fourth pressing gap 20, the fifth pressing gap 21, and the sixth pressing gap 22 is gradually transitioned, that is, from 75° to 50° and then to 20°. Compared with folding the copper strip to 20° in one go, this embodiment can ensure that the copper strip folding edge is flatter and that the copper strip is not damaged.
[0054] III. Third Roller Press Assembly 4;
[0055] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the third roller pressing assembly 4 includes a pressure roller shaft 6, a pressure roller 5 sleeved on the pressure roller shaft 6, an idler roller shaft 8, and an idler roller 7 sleeved on the idler roller shaft 8. This part is similar to the first roller pressing assembly 2. The difference between the third roller pressing assembly 4 and the first roller pressing assembly 2 is that the pressing gap formed between the pressure roller 5 and the idler roller 7 in the third roller pressing assembly 4 allows the copper strip edge 24 to be completely pressed against the copper strip body 25.
[0056] In this embodiment, the third roller pressing assembly 4 has only one pressure roller shaft 6 and one idler roller shaft 8. The output end of the drive assembly is also connected to the pressure roller shaft 6 and the idler roller shaft 8 for driving the pressure roller shaft 6 and the idler roller shaft 8 to rotate.
[0057] like Figure 16 As shown, a seventh pressing gap 23 is formed between the pressure roller 5 and the support roller 7 in the third roller pressing assembly 4. When the copper strip passes through the seventh pressing gap 23, the included angle between the edge 24 of the copper strip and the body 25 of the copper strip is 0°. (See [reference]) Figure 17 This means that the edges are fully pressed together, at which point the folding is complete.
[0058] When the copper strip is folded in this embodiment, the included angle between the edge 24 of the copper strip and the main body 25 of the copper strip successively changes from 170°, 140°, 110°, 75°, 50°, 20° to 0°. The advantage of this progressive folding angle is that for copper strips used in transformer coil electrostatic shields, which are hundreds of meters long, it is difficult to directly fold the edge 24 of the copper strip to 0°. The progressive folding method makes it easier to succeed. In addition, the progressive folding allows the edge 24 of the copper strip to gradually transition to 0°, resulting in a smoother edge 24 after folding.
[0059] In this embodiment, by adjusting the shape of the pressure roller 5 and the idler roller 7, the included angle between the edge 24 of the copper strip and the main body 25 of the copper strip is successively changed from 170°, 140°, 110°, 75°, 50°, 20° to 0°. This roller shape is designed to both meet the requirements of progressive edge bending and facilitate the processing of the pressure roller 5 and the idler roller 7.
[0060] In this embodiment, the first roller pressing assembly 2 and the second roller pressing assembly 3 each include three sets of rollers. This is for illustrative purposes only and can be adjusted as needed in actual applications. For example, the first roller pressing assembly 2 can include only one set of rollers, and the angle between the edge 24 of the copper strip formed after passing through the pressing gap in the first roller pressing assembly 2 and the copper strip body 25 can be any angle between 110° and 170°. The second roller pressing assembly 3 can also include only one set of rollers, and the angle between the edge 24 of the copper strip formed after passing through the pressing gap in the second roller pressing assembly 3 and the copper strip body 25 can be any angle between 20° and 75°. This method can also achieve the change of the copper strip edge 24 from an obtuse angle to an acute angle and then back to 0°.
[0061] IV. Frame 1. Drive Components;
[0062] like Figure 1 As shown, a first side plate 101 located on the left and a second side plate 102 located on the right are fixed on the frame 1. The left ends of the pressure roller shaft 6 and the idler roller shaft 8 pass through the first side plate 101 on the frame 1, and the pressure roller shaft 6 and the idler roller shaft 8 are rotatably connected to the first side plate 101 through the through-hole via bearings. The right ends of the pressure roller shaft 6 and the idler roller shaft 8 are each rotatably connected to the second side plate 102 via bearings. The method of achieving rotatable connection via bearings is existing technology.
[0063] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown, a first gear 28 is fixedly installed at the through end of the pressure roller shaft 6, and a second gear 29 that meshes with the first gear 28 is fixedly installed at the through end of the idler roller shaft 8 corresponding to the upper and lower pressure roller shaft 6. Here, the through end refers to the left end of the pressure roller shaft 6 and the idler roller shaft 8. In this embodiment, there are seven pressure roller shafts 6 and seven idler roller shafts 8. A first gear 28 is fixedly installed at the through end of each pressure roller shaft 6, and a second gear 29 is fixedly installed at the through end of each idler roller shaft 8.
[0064] The output end of the drive assembly is connected to the second gear 29 for transmission. Specifically, the drive assembly includes a power component and a transmission component.
[0065] The power components include motor 27, such as Figure 1 As shown, a horizontal plate 34 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the frame 1, and the motor 27 is placed on the horizontal plate 34. A control box 15 is also fixedly installed on the frame 1. The control box 15 is electrically connected to the motor 27 to control the start of the motor 27. The structure of the control box 15 and its control relationship with the motor 27 are existing technologies.
[0066] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown, the transmission components include a pulley 30, a first synchronous belt 31, a double gear 33, and a second synchronous belt 32. The pulley 30 is fixed to the output shaft of the motor 27. Multiple double gears 33 are provided, one fixed to the through end of each roller shaft 8. In this embodiment, there are seven double gears 33. The first synchronous belt 31 is fitted onto the pulley 30 and the drive gear 331 of one of the double gears 33. In this embodiment, the first synchronous belt 31 is fitted onto the pulley 30 and the drive gear 331 of the first roller group 9 (i.e., the foremost double gear 33). The second synchronous belt 32 is fitted onto the driven gears 332 of the seven double gears 33. The second synchronous belt 32 and the seven driven gears 332 are all meshing transmissions.
[0067] When the motor 27 is working, the pulley 30 rotates with the output shaft of the motor 27. Under the action of the first synchronous belt 31, the double gear 33, the idler roller shaft 8, and the second gear 29 on the first roller group 9 rotate together. Under the meshing relationship, the first gear 28 and the pressure roller shaft 6 on the first roller group 9 also rotate. At the same time, under the action of the second synchronous belt 32, the driven gear 332 in the double gear 33 on the first roller group 9 rotates, which will drive all the driven gears 332 in the second roller group 10 to the third roller pressing assembly 4 to rotate, thereby causing the idler roller shaft 8 in the second roller group 10 to the third roller pressing assembly 4 to rotate. Under the meshing transmission, all the pressure roller shafts 6 in the second roller group 10 to the third roller pressing assembly 4 also rotate.
[0068] To improve this embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, a dustproof shell 16 is provided on the left side of the frame 1 at the positions corresponding to the pulley 30, double gear 33, first gear 28, and second gear 29, which is fixedly connected to the frame 1. This not only serves to prevent dust but also improves the aesthetics.
[0069] V. Pallet 26;
[0070] like Figure 1 , 2As shown, along the copper strip transport direction, support plates 26 are provided upstream (i.e., front end) of the first roller pressing assembly 2 and downstream (i.e., rear end) of the third roller pressing assembly 4. The support plates 26 are fixed on the frame 1. The upper surface of the support plates 26 is at the same height as the first pressing gap 17 and the seventh pressing gap 23. The support plates 26 support the copper strip before entering the first roller group 9 and the copper strip output from the third roller pressing assembly 4, so that the copper strip passes through a horizontal path before entering the device and when outputting from the device, preventing direct fall and damage to the copper strip.
[0071] In this embodiment, the motor 27 is started, and all the pressure roller shafts 6 and support roller shafts 8 in the device rotate, initiating the rolling process. The copper strip is conveyed from front to back. The copper strip first enters the first roller group 9 between the pressure roller 5 and support roller 7 via the support plate 26.
