Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of flange punching devices, specifically to a precision punching device for air conditioning PTC flanges. Background Technology
[0002] In the manufacturing of air conditioning equipment, PTC flanges are an indispensable key component. They are mainly used to fix and connect PTC heating elements, playing an important role in the stable operation of the air conditioning heating function. The accuracy of the holes on the PTC flange directly affects the installation accuracy and stability of the PTC heating elements, which in turn affects the overall performance and safety of the air conditioner. As the air conditioning industry continues to increase its requirements for product quality and production efficiency, higher standards have been set for the processing accuracy and production efficiency of PTC flanges. When punching holes in PTC flanges, corresponding punching devices are usually used.
[0003] Patent CN117244997B discloses a flange punching device, including a machine body, a rotary switching punch, an adjustable die, a rotary clamping device, a transmission mechanism, and a waste collection device. This invention belongs to the field of flange punching technology, specifically referring to a flange punching device. This invention avoids the problem of reduced punching efficiency caused by needing to change punches when punching holes of different diameters on flanges through a rotary switching punch. The adjustable die, used in conjunction with the rotary switching punch, enables punching of flanges with different diameter die holes. The rotary clamping device positions flanges of different diameters, restricting movement during punching. The installation of an annular serrated ring and a waste collection device inside the die hole prevents waste from affecting the punching quality of the flange.
[0004] While this technical solution has the advantage of avoiding the impact of waste material on flange punching quality, most current punching methods still employ a single-hole sequential processing method. For example, when multiple through holes need to be punched on a flange, only one through hole can be punched at a time. After punching that hole, the flange or punching head position needs to be adjusted before the next punching operation. This adjustment causes errors in punching accuracy, hindering the achievement of precise punching results. Therefore, we propose a precision punching device for air conditioning PTC flanges.
