Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of aluminum honeycomb core stretching device, and more specifically, it relates to a fully automatic aluminum honeycomb core stretching equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Aluminum honeycomb cores are widely used in aerospace, rail transportation, and architectural decoration due to their lightweight, high specific strength, and excellent impact resistance. In their manufacturing process, stretching is a crucial step determining the uniformity and mechanical properties of the honeycomb core cells. Traditional aluminum honeycomb core stretching equipment relies heavily on manual feeding, manual positioning, and single-sided stretching operations, which presents the following technical bottlenecks:

[0003] Manual handling and alignment are inefficient and difficult to adapt to the needs of continuous production. Furthermore, manual intervention can easily introduce dimensional deviations. Many honeycomb core stretching machines use pin insertion for stretching, which can easily lead to excessive localized stretching, resulting in poor cell deformation and reduced usable area. Therefore, this invention proposes a fully automatic aluminum honeycomb core stretching device. Utility Model Content

[0027] This utility model provides a fully automatic aluminum honeycomb core stretching device. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the system includes a machine frame 100, a honeycomb core unfolding mechanism 400, a feeding mechanism 200, and a discharging mechanism 300. The honeycomb core unfolding mechanism 400 is mounted on the machine frame 100, the feeding mechanism 200 is located inside the machine frame 100, and the discharging mechanism 300 is located at one end of the machine frame 100. The feeding mechanism 200 transports the honeycomb core from below the honeycomb core unfolding mechanism 400, moving the honeycomb core from the middle of the machine frame 100. The honeycomb core unfolding mechanism 400 stretches the honeycomb core in both directions, causing the honeycomb core to be symmetrically stretched.

[0028] The feeding mechanism 200 includes a lifting component 220, a conveying component 210, and a limiting block 230. The lifting component 220 is located on one side of the conveying component 210, and the limiting block 230 is located on the other side of the lifting component 220. The lifting component 220 is provided with a limiting component. The conveying component 210 is a synchronous belt conveying structure. The gap between the conveying component 210 and the lifting component 220 is small. The honeycomb core stack is conveyed to the lifting component 220. Based on the lifting component 220, the honeycomb core stack rises to the table surface of the machine frame 100, which facilitates the honeycomb core unfolding mechanism 400 to stretch the honeycomb core.

[0029] It should be noted that the lifting assembly 220 includes a second telescopic rod 221 and a lifting plate 222. The telescopic end of the second telescopic rod 221 is fixedly connected to the lifting plate 222, and the limiting assembly is disposed on the lifting plate 222. Specifically, the limiting assembly includes a first limiting plate 225, a second limiting plate 226, a first limiting telescopic rod 223, and a second limiting telescopic rod 224. The first limiting telescopic rod 223 is disposed at one end of the lifting plate 222, and the second limiting telescopic rod 224 is disposed at the other end of the lifting plate 222. The first limiting plate 225 is disposed on the telescopic end of the first limiting telescopic rod 223, and the second limiting plate 226 is disposed on the telescopic end of the second limiting telescopic rod 224. The first limiting telescopic rod 223 and the second limiting telescopic rod 224 are located on the lower end face of the lifting plate 222, while the first limiting plate 225 and the second limiting plate 226 are located on the upper end face of the lifting plate 222. Sliding rods are provided at both ends of the lifting plate 222 to assist the first limiting plate 225 and the second limiting plate 226 in sliding, clamping the honeycomb core stack, preventing displacement during the rising process, and improving the accuracy of docking.

[0030] A connecting plate 110 is provided on the machine frame 100 above the feeding mechanism 200. A feeding port is provided between the connecting plate 110 and the unloading mechanism 300. A position measuring unit 111 facing the feeding port is provided on the lower side of the connecting plate 110. A width measuring unit is provided inside the machine frame 100. Specifically, the machine frame 100 has a frame structure. The width measuring unit is set on two opposite support legs of the machine frame 100. The width measuring unit is used to sense the distance of the honeycomb core stack to determine the width of the honeycomb core stack. The honeycomb core unfolding mechanism 400 can adjust the spacing of the frame components according to the width of the honeycomb core stack, that is, control the extension and retraction of the limiting components. The position measuring unit 111 is located on the side of the groove closest to the conveying mechanism. It senses the distance during the process of the lifting component 220 raising the honeycomb core stack to control the position of the first moving frame 410. Since the limiting block 230 is fixed on the other side of the honeycomb core stack, the moving positions of the first moving frame 410 and the second moving frame 420 can be determined.

[0031] The honeycomb core unfolding mechanism 400 includes a first movable frame 410 and a second movable frame 420. The first movable frame 410 and the second movable frame 420 are arranged opposite to each other. A plurality of clamping components 430 are symmetrically arranged on the first movable frame 410 and the second movable frame 420. Each clamping component 430 includes a mounting frame 431, a lower clamping plate 433, a first telescopic rod 435, an upper clamping plate 432, and a pin 434. The first telescopic rod 435 is arranged on the mounting frame 431. The lower clamping plate 433 is arranged at the lower end of the mounting frame 431. The telescopic end of the first telescopic rod 435 is fixedly connected to the upper clamping plate 432. The pin 434 is arranged on the upper clamping plate 432. The upper clamping plate 432 and the lower clamping plate 433 are provided with anti-slip textures. The pin 434 is located on the side of the upper clamping plate 432 facing the middle of the mounting frame 431. When clamping the honeycomb core stack, the lower clamping plate 433 first supports the honeycomb core stack from the bottom, and then the first telescopic rod 435 is activated. The pin 434 is inserted into the hole at the edge of the honeycomb core, the upper clamping plate 432 clamps the edge of the honeycomb core, and the first moving frame 410 and the second moving frame 420 move away from each other to stretch.

[0032] The machine frame 100 is provided with linear slide rails 120 on both sides. The first moving frame 410 is provided with a first linear motor that slides on the linear slide rail 120. The second moving frame 420 is provided with a second linear motor that slides on the linear slide rail 120. The first linear motor and the second linear motor are independently controlled. The first moving frame 410 and the second moving frame 420 are moved to a designated position so that the lower clamping plate 433 first presses against the honeycomb core stack.

[0033] Specifically, both the first movable frame 410 and the second movable frame 420 are equipped with a linkage component 440. The linkage component 440 includes two drive units 446, a support plate 441, multiple connecting rods 445, a first slide rail 442, and a second slide rail 443. The first slide rail 442 and the second slide rail 443 are arranged parallel to each other on the support plate 441. The middle of the connecting rod 445 is hinged to the support plate 441. The mounting bracket 431 is slidably arranged on the first slide rail 442 and the second slide rail 443. The two ends of the connecting rod 445 are respectively hinged to two adjacent mounting brackets 431. The two drive units 446 are arranged at both ends of the support plate 441. The support brackets at both ends of the support plate 441 are slidably connected to the two drive units 446 respectively. The support plate 441 has a first slide groove 444 in the middle, and the connecting rod 445 is slidably disposed on the first slide groove 444. The two connecting rods 445 are staggered to connect two adjacent mounting brackets 431. Specifically, the mounting bracket 431 is provided with a second slide groove 436, and the two ends of the connecting rod 445 are respectively slidably disposed on the second slide grooves 436 of the two adjacent mounting brackets 431. The drive unit 446 is a servo motor. The support plate 441, multiple connecting rods 445, the first slide rail 442 and the second slide rail 443 are disposed on the front of the support plate 441, and the drive unit 446 is disposed on the back of the support plate 441. The drive unit 446 is connected to a lead screw, and the mounting bracket 431 is provided with a slider that slides on the lead screw. The drive unit 446 can control the movement of the mounting bracket 431. Under the action of the connecting rod 445, the drive unit 446 simultaneously drives the movement of other mounting brackets 431, that is, controls the spacing of the clamping components 430 to match different honeycomb cores.

[0034] All feeding mechanisms 300 are conveyor belt structures. After the honeycomb core is stretched, the feeding mechanism 300 automatically feeds the honeycomb core. The honeycomb core unfolding mechanism 400, the feeding mechanism 200 and the feeding mechanism 300 work together to complete fully automatic production.

[0035] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
