Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of spring end face flattening technology, and in particular relates to an automatic spring forming equipment for flattening spring end faces. Background Technology

[0002] Automatic spring forming equipment with flat spring end faces is also known as spring end face grinding equipment. Spring end face grinding equipment is a special machine used for precision grinding of both end faces of springs. It aims to remove burrs, unevenness or oxide layer from the end faces of the formed springs, and ensure that the flatness, perpendicularity and roughness of the end faces meet the technical requirements. This equipment is widely used in the fields of automobiles, electronics, medical devices, aerospace and other fields, and is a key link in the spring manufacturing forming process.

[0003] Traditional spring end-face grinding equipment uses a fixed-size positioning sleeve on its turntable. When users need to grind the end faces of different spring models, they must purchase different sizes of positioning sleeves, increasing the cost of spring forming. Therefore, we propose an automated spring forming equipment that produces springs with flat end faces. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic spring forming device with a flat spring end face, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides an automatic spring forming device for achieving a flat spring end face, comprising a spring end face grinding device and a turntable, wherein the turntable is disposed on the spring end face grinding device, and further comprising:

[0006] Multiple mounting slots are provided, which are opened inside the turntable and connected to the outside. Multiple positioning sleeves are fixedly connected to each of the multiple mounting slots.

[0007] Multiple rotating slots are respectively formed on the inner wall of multiple positioning sleeves. Multiple clamping plates are rotatably connected in the rotating slots. Multiple first gear slots are formed on the top surface of the inner wall of the rotating slots. Multiple gears are rotatably connected in the multiple first gear slots. One end of each gear extends into the rotating slot and is fixed to the multiple clamping plates.

[0008] Multiple annular grooves are formed in multiple positioning sleeves and are connected to multiple corresponding first gear grooves. Multiple toothed rings are rotatably connected in the multiple annular grooves and mesh with multiple corresponding gears.

[0009] Multiple drive components are located in multiple positioning sleeves and are used to drive the corresponding gears to rotate.

[0010] Based on the above structure, the set rotating groove and clamping plate ensure that multiple clamping plates can rotate in the corresponding rotating groove. The set first gear groove and gear ensure that the gear can rotate in the first gear groove, allowing the gear to drive the clamping plate to rotate in the corresponding rotating groove. The set annular groove and toothed ring ensure that the toothed ring can rotate in the annular groove, allowing the toothed ring to drive the corresponding multiple gears to rotate. The set drive component ensures that the user can drive one of the gears to rotate in one of the first gear grooves, so that one of the gears drives the other multiple gears to rotate through the toothed ring.

[0011] In the above technical solution, the driving component further includes:

[0012] The second gear groove is formed inside the positioning sleeve and communicates with one of the first gear grooves. A first bevel gear and a second bevel gear are rotatably connected in the second gear groove, and the first bevel gear and the second bevel gear mesh with each other. One end of the first bevel gear extends into one of the first gear grooves and is fixed with one of the gears.

[0013] A rotating groove is formed on the inner wall of the second gear groove and communicates with the outside. A rotating rod is rotatably connected in the rotating groove, and one end of the rotating rod extends into the second gear groove and is fixed to the second bevel gear.

[0014] A fixing block, which is fixedly connected to one side of the positioning sleeve;

[0015] A fixing component is located on the rotating rod and is used to fix the rotating rod.

[0016] In this technical solution, it is ensured that the user can drive one of the gears to rotate.

[0017] In the above technical solution, the fixing component further includes:

[0018] A threaded groove is formed on the circumference of the rotating rod, and a threaded sleeve is threadedly connected to the threaded groove.

[0019] In this technical solution, it is ensured that the rotating rod will not be affected by external factors and will not rotate.

[0020] In the above technical solution, the threaded sleeve is made of an anti-slip material.

[0021] This technical solution ensures that the user's hand will not slip when rotating the threaded sleeve.

[0022] In the above technical solution, one end of the first bevel gear is rotatably connected to one of the first gear slots.

[0023] In this technical solution, it is ensured that when the first bevel gear rotates, one end of the first bevel gear can rotate normally within one of the first gear slots.

[0024] In the above technical solution, one end of the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the second gear groove.

[0025] In this technical solution, it is ensured that when the rotating rod rotates, one end of the rotating rod can rotate normally within the second gear groove.

[0026] In the above technical solution, one end of each of the gears is rotatably connected to the rotating groove.

[0027] In this technical solution, it is ensured that when multiple gears rotate, one end of each gear can rotate normally within the rotating groove.

[0028] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0029] 1. This automatic spring forming equipment with flat spring end faces ensures that multiple clamping plates can rotate within their corresponding rotating grooves through a set rotating groove and clamping plates. A first gear groove and gear ensure that the gear can rotate within its first gear groove, allowing the gear to drive the clamping plates to rotate within their corresponding rotating grooves. An annular groove and gear ring ensure that the gear ring can rotate within its annular groove, allowing the gear ring to drive multiple corresponding gears to rotate. A drive assembly allows the user to drive one gear to rotate within one of the first gear grooves, enabling that gear to drive multiple other gears via the gear ring. This solves the problem of increased spring forming costs caused by the need for users to purchase different models of positioning sleeves when grinding the end faces of different spring models.

[0030] 2. This automatic spring forming equipment with a flat spring end face, through the setting of a fixed block, threaded groove and threaded sleeve, ensures that when the user rotates the threaded sleeve, the threaded sleeve will be acted on by the thread of the threaded groove and move towards the fixed block, so that the threaded sleeve is tightly pressed on the fixed block, fixing the rotating rod in the rotating groove and preventing it from moving, thus preventing the rotating rod from rotating due to external influences.
