Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of hydraulic buffer cylinder technology, and in particular to an automatic trimming machine for a hydraulic buffer cylinder. Background Technology
[0002] In the manufacturing process of hydraulic buffer cylinders, edge trimming is a crucial step to ensure the flatness and dimensional accuracy of the product's edges. Traditional trimming processes typically rely on manual operation or semi-automatic equipment, which presents the following significant problems:
[0003] Inefficient: Manual trimming requires frequent adjustments to the workpiece position and is affected by the operator's skill level, resulting in limited production efficiency;
[0004] Insufficient precision: Manual operation is prone to human error, especially for precision components such as hydraulic buffer cylinders, where edge burrs may affect their sealing and durability;
[0005] Poor adaptability: Existing equipment is mostly designed for a single model, making it difficult to quickly adapt to different cylinder specifications, requiring frequent tooling changes and increasing production costs;
[0006] Furthermore, the edge trimming requirements of hydraulic buffer cylinders place higher demands on the equipment: their complex edge shapes require a balance between efficient cutting and precise positioning, while avoiding damage to the cylinder body due to excessive cutting. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an automated, high-precision, and highly adaptable trimming device to solve the aforementioned technical challenges. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The purpose of this application is to provide an automatic trimming machine for hydraulic buffer cylinders to solve the above-mentioned problems. By integrating automated conveying, precise positioning, dynamic buffering and multi-dimensional adjustment technologies, it solves the problems of low efficiency, poor accuracy and weak adaptability of traditional trimming processes, and provides an innovative solution for efficient and high-precision trimming of hydraulic buffer cylinders.
[0008] This application achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions:

[0022] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments.
[0023] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "upper," "lower," "front," "back," "left," "right," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the appendix. Figure 1 This description is provided for the convenience of describing this application and for the purpose of simplifying the description, and is not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.
[0024] like Figure 1-3 As shown, an automatic trimming machine for a hydraulic buffer cylinder includes: a conveyor 20 capable of conveying the cylinder; an electric slide 1 and a motor 2, the motor 2 being disposed at the output end of the electric slide 1; a mounting beam 3 fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor 2; a trimming blade 9 corresponding to the end of the cylinder conveyed by the conveyor 20, the first end being fixedly connected coaxially to the output shaft of the motor 2, and the second end being provided with a blade head 10; two sliding columns 4 disposed on both sides of the trimming blade 9 and slidingly engaged with the mounting beam 3, the first end of the sliding column 4 penetrating the mounting beam 3 and fixedly connected to an anti-detachment disc 5, the second end being fixedly connected to a rotating roller support 6; a rotating roller 7 rotatably connected to the rotating roller support 6 at both ends; a spring 8 sleeved on the sliding column 4, and the two ends abutting against the rotating roller support 6 and the mounting beam 3; a bracket 11, on which the electric slide 1 is fixedly mounted; and a positioning disc 19 connected to the bracket 11 via a positioning component that adjusts its distance from the cylinder.
[0025] The conveyor 20 in this embodiment is existing technology and can be a chain conveyor or a belt conveyor, so that the material seat 21 can be installed on the conveyor. The translation direction of the output end of the electric slide table 1 is consistent with the axis of the cylinder, so that the motor 2 can be driven to move closer to or away from the cylinder. The mounting beam 3 is a plate structure, and the middle part of the mounting beam 3 is connected to the motor 2, so that the slide column 4 and the rotating roller 7 are located on both sides of the cutting blade 9 and are installed on the mounting beam 3. The positioning plate 19 is located on the other side of the conveyor 20 and can abut against the cylinder pushed by the rotating roller 7, thereby cooperating with the positioning cylinder. By adjusting the distance between the positioning plate 19 and the cylinder, it can adapt to different models of cylinders.
[0026] In some embodiments, a telescopic cylinder 12 is also included, which is fixedly installed on the top of the bracket 11 and has its output end facing downward towards the cylinder body. At the same time, a pressure block 13 is fixedly connected to the output end, and the pressure block 13 has a groove adapted to the shape of the cylinder body. The positioning assembly includes: an adjusting seat 14, which is fixedly connected to the bracket 11; a stand 16, which is fastened to the adjusting seat 14 by fasteners 17, and the adjusting seat 14 has an adjusting groove 15 adapted to the fasteners 17. The positioning plate 19 is fixedly connected to the stand 16.
[0027] The telescopic cylinder 12 in this embodiment is prior art. The groove of the pressure block 13 matches the shape of the cylinder body, thereby further positioning the cylinder body and placing it in a preset position to ensure the cutting accuracy of the cutter head 10. Tightening the fastener 17 can loosen or fix the stand 16, thereby adjusting the position of the stand 16 on the adjusting seat 14. The stand 16 can be adjusted along the axial direction of the cylinder body to adapt to different models of cylinder bodies and abut against the end of the cylinder body. The adjusting groove 15 on the adjusting seat 14 allows the fastener 17 to pass through, so as to avoid the fastener 17.
[0028] In some embodiments, a plurality of material seats 21 are evenly arranged on the conveying route of the conveyor 20, and a material trough 22 capable of accommodating the cylinder is provided on the top of the material seat 21.
[0029] In this embodiment, the material seat 21 is U-shaped, and the material groove 22 is constructed through the bending parts at both ends to support the cylinder body.
[0030] In some embodiments, the sliding column 4 is a prism to ensure stable sliding on the mounting beam 3 and to prevent rotation.
[0031] In some embodiments, the axial direction of the roller 7 extends radially along the cylinder body. After the motor 2 drives the mounting beam 3 to rotate, the roller 7 can roll along the edge of the cylinder body to avoid friction with the cylinder body.
[0032] In some embodiments, the cutter head 10 has an angle with the radial direction of the cylinder body to cut the edge of the cylinder body.
[0033] In the above structure, the conveyor 20 starts to circulate and convey the material seat 21. The cylinder can be placed inside the material trough 22. When the cylinder is conveyed between the positioning plate 19 and the cutting blade 9, the electric slide table 1 starts and drives the motor 2 to move towards the cylinder. First, the roller 7 contacts the cylinder, and the cylinder pushes towards the positioning plate 19 for positioning. When the motor 2 continues to move towards the cylinder, the cutting blade 9 contacts the cylinder, and the motor 2 starts to drive the cutting blade 9 to rotate. The edge of the cylinder is trimmed by the blade head 10. Repeating the above steps can continuously and automatically trim the edge, improving efficiency.
[0034] Furthermore, after positioning, the telescopic cylinder 12 is activated, which can drive the pressure block 13 to rise and fall. After the pressure block 13 descends, it applies pressure to the cylinder body to further prevent the cylinder body from shifting. At the same time, the groove of the pressure block 13 can also position the cylinder body to ensure the accuracy of the cylinder body when it is being trimmed.
[0035] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this application. Those skilled in the art should understand that this application is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this application. Various changes and modifications can be made to this application without departing from the spirit and scope thereof, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of this application as claimed. The scope of protection of this application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
