[0018] To make the technical solution and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0019] It should be mentioned that in this embodiment, the horizontal rotating gripper 41 and the vertical rotating gripper 63 are both controlled by a motor; the tilting lift 52, the angle auxiliary lift 62, and the lifting plate 32 are all driven by the lifting motor 322 or the telescopic rod, and all of these are commercially available, so they will not be described in detail here. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the turning longitudinal traverse 42, the tilting longitudinal traverse 51, and the angle auxiliary longitudinal traverse 61 are all driven by linear actuators. The linear actuators can be commercially available motor-driven screws that drive the turning longitudinal traverse 42, the tilting longitudinal traverse 51, and the angle auxiliary longitudinal traverse 61, which are threadedly connected to the corresponding screws, to perform linear movement, or they can be driven by hydraulic cylinders, pneumatic cylinders, etc., so they will not be described in detail here.
[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, a bracket end forming device includes a feeding rack 1, a material conveying and processing unit 3, and a receiving box 8.
[0021] In this embodiment, the loading rack 1 and the receiving box 8 are connected by a power cabinet 2, and the power cabinet 2 is equipped with a servo hydraulic station 21 for providing hydraulic pressure. To improve control convenience, an HMI (Human Machine Interface) 7 is provided on the top of the power cabinet 2.
[0022] The feeding rack 1 supplies materials to the material conveying processing unit 3, and the receiving box 8 receives the brackets formed by the material conveying processing unit 3. Meanwhile, the material conveying processing unit 3 is equipped with n forming sections 33 arranged sequentially between the feeding rack 1 and the receiving box 8, and n+1 pneumatic grippers 323, where n is a positive integer. The pneumatic grippers 323 are connected to a drive unit for synchronously driving lifting and translation, and are used to clamp and fix the brackets, while the forming sections 33 are used to fix the formed brackets. Therefore, after the drive unit drives the gripper 323 to move and match the upper feeder 1, the gripper 323 is lowered to match the feeder 1 and the corresponding forming part 33, thereby completing the feeding and forming of the bracket. When the drive unit drives the gripper 323 to move and match the receiving box 8, the gripper 323 is lowered to match the receiving box 8 and the corresponding forming part 33, thereby completing the unloading and forming of the bracket. By repeating the process, the forming process of the bracket end is divided into multiple stages and carried out in an orderly manner, thereby significantly improving the forming accuracy and efficiency of the bracket.
[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the forming unit 33 includes a forming base 332, a forming telescopic cylinder 331, and a forming mold 333 that is matched and connected to the forming base 332 and the forming telescopic cylinder 331. The forming mold 333 is used to match and fix the forming support to the pneumatic gripper 323. Meanwhile, the drive unit includes a transverse rail 31, a transverse plate 311 that is horizontally linearly slidably connected to the transverse rail 31, and a transverse motor 312 that drives the transverse plate 311 to move horizontally linearly. Among them, the transverse plate 311 is fixedly connected to a lifting motor 322, the lifting motor 322 is connected to a lifting plate 32 that is vertically linearly slidably connected to the transverse plate 311, and a synchronizing rod 321 for connecting and fixing to the pneumatic gripper 323 is provided at the bottom of the lifting plate 32.
[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, the forming part 33 is fitted with a turning unit 4, a flipping unit 5, and an angle auxiliary unit 6. The turning unit 4 is used to rotate the support horizontally by 180°, the flipping unit 5 is used to rotate the support vertically by 180°, and the angle auxiliary unit 6 is used to rotate the support vertically and form an angle relative to the horizontal plane. It should be noted that the turning unit 4 includes a horizontal rotating gripper 41 and a turning longitudinal translator 42 for driving the horizontal rotating gripper 41 to move linearly forward and backward. The flipping unit 5 includes a flipping gripper 53, a flipping lifter 52 for driving the flipping gripper 53 to move linearly in the vertical direction, and a flipping longitudinal translator 51 for driving the flipping lifter 52 to move linearly forward and backward. The angle auxiliary unit 6 includes a vertical rotating gripper 63, an angle auxiliary lifter 62 for driving the vertical rotating gripper 63 to move linearly in the vertical direction, and an angle auxiliary longitudinal translator 61 for driving the vertical rotating gripper 63 to move linearly forward and backward.
[0025] In summary, this application provides a bracket end forming device, which completes the processing and forming of the bracket end by matching multiple forming parts 33 with corresponding pneumatic grippers 323, and uses an additional pneumatic gripper 323 to match with the feeding rack 1 for feeding and with the receiving box 8 for discharging, so that the bracket end forming device has the effect of significantly improving forming accuracy and efficiency.
