[0004] However, in actual use, this utility model requires manually placing the aluminum plate into the positioning frame cavity, and after the edge is folded, it also needs to be manually removed. For large-volume aluminum plate edge folding, the processing efficiency is low, so it needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0013] Beneficial effects

[0014] This utility model provides a synchronous folding device for aluminum single-panel processing, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. This synchronous folding device for aluminum single-panel processing utilizes an aluminum plate transfer mechanism. An extended electric telescopic rod, in conjunction with an electric suction cup, adsorbs and fixes the aluminum plate fed by the aluminum plate conveying mechanism. Then, a rotating adjusting column drives a top plate to rotate. The rotation angle of the adjusting column is adjusted by an adjusting mechanism, allowing the aluminum plate, fixed by the electric suction cup, to be transferred above the aluminum plate folding mechanism. The folding mechanism then performs the folding operation. After folding, the first electric telescopic rod retracts, lifting the folded aluminum plate. The top plate continues to rotate. Once the folded aluminum plate is away from the folding mechanism, the electric suction cup is deactivated, allowing the folded aluminum plate to fall easily, completing the unloading process. The entire processing is highly automated, saving manpower and improving processing efficiency.

[0016] 2. The synchronous folding device for aluminum single panel processing is equipped with a second electric telescopic rod, a locking pin, and a locking hole. The extension of the second electric telescopic rod can drive the locking pin to be inserted into the locking hole, thereby fixing the rotation angle of the adjusting column and ensuring the alignment of the horizontal baffle with the aluminum plate, as well as the alignment of the aluminum plate with the folding push plate.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a synchronous folding device for aluminum single-panel processing, including an aluminum plate conveying mechanism 1, an aluminum plate transfer mechanism 2, and an aluminum plate folding mechanism 3. The aluminum plate conveying mechanism 1 and the aluminum plate folding mechanism 3 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the aluminum plate transfer mechanism 2. The aluminum plate transfer mechanism 2 includes a support base 4, a steering column 5, a top plate 6, a first electric telescopic rod 7, a horizontal baffle 8, and an electric suction cup 9. The steering column 5 is rotatably connected to the surface of the support base 4, and the surface of the support base 4 is provided with an adjustment mechanism 10 for adjusting the rotation angle of the steering column 5. The top plate 6 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the steering column 5. Four first electric telescopic rods 7 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the top plate 6 in a circular array. The horizontal baffle 8 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the first electric telescopic rods 7. Through holes are opened on both sides of the surface of the horizontal baffle 8, and the electric suction cup 9 is fixedly installed in the through holes. By setting up an aluminum plate transfer mechanism 2, the first electric telescopic rod 7 extends and works with the electric suction cup 9 to adsorb and fix the aluminum plate fed by the aluminum plate conveying mechanism 1. Then, by rotating the adjusting column 5, the top plate 6 can be rotated. With the adjustment mechanism 10, the rotation angle of the adjusting column 5 can be adjusted, so that the aluminum plate adsorbed and fixed by the electric suction cup 9 can be transferred to the aluminum plate folding mechanism 3. At this time, the aluminum plate folding mechanism 3 can be used to fold the aluminum plate. After the folding is completed, the first electric telescopic rod 7 is controlled to retract, so that the folded aluminum plate can be lifted. Then, the top plate 6 is controlled to rotate. When the folded aluminum plate is away from the aluminum plate folding mechanism 3, the electric suction cup 9 can be turned off, so that the folded aluminum plate can fall easily, thus completing the unloading. The whole processing process is highly automated, saves manpower, and improves processing efficiency.

[0024] The adjustment mechanism 10 includes a power motor 11, a power gear 12, and a transmission gear 13. The power motor 11 is fixedly connected to the surface of the support base 4, the power gear 12 is fixedly connected to the output end of the power motor 11, and the transmission gear 13 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the steering column 5. The power gear 12 and the transmission gear 13 mesh with each other. By setting the adjustment mechanism 10, the power motor 11 can drive the power gear 12 to rotate, and the meshing of the power gear 12 and the transmission gear 13 can drive the steering column 5 to rotate.

[0025] A second electric telescopic rod 14 is fixedly connected to the surface of the support base 4. A locking pin 15 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the second electric telescopic rod 14. The surface of the adjusting column 5 is provided with four locking holes 16 arranged in a ring to fit the locking pin 15. By setting the second electric telescopic rod 14, the locking pin 15 and the locking holes 16, the extension of the second electric telescopic rod 14 can drive the locking pin 15 to be inserted into the locking hole 16, thereby fixing the rotation angle of the adjusting column 5, ensuring the alignment of the horizontal baffle 8 with the aluminum plate, and the alignment of the aluminum plate with the folded edge push plate 23.

[0026] The aluminum plate conveying mechanism 1 includes an electric conveyor belt, with side limiting plates 17 on both sides of the electric conveyor belt and an end limiting baffle 18 at the end of the electric conveyor belt. The side limiting plates 17 can limit the sides of the aluminum plate, and the end limiting baffle 18 can limit the end of the aluminum plate, thus preventing the aluminum plate from falling off the electric conveyor belt.

[0027] The side limit plate 17 is provided with a guide slope on the side near the electric conveyor belt. By providing the guide slope, the side of the aluminum plate can be easily aligned with the side limit plate 17.

By setting up the aluminum plate folding mechanism 3, when the aluminum plate fixed by the electric suction cup 9 is transferred to the top of the aluminum plate folding mechanism 3, the extension of the hydraulic telescopic rod 20 can drive the movable plate 22 to rise. With the limiting slide column 21 limiting the movable plate 22, the stability of the upward movement of the movable plate 22 can be ensured. The movable plate 22 drives the folding push plate 23 to rise, and the folding push plate 23 pushes the aluminum plate around its perimeter to realize the folding operation of the aluminum plate.

[0029] Working Principle: When this aluminum panel processing synchronous folding device is in use, the PLC programming controller is first used to program and control the first electric telescopic rod 7, the second electric telescopic rod 14, the electric suction cup 9, the power motor 11, and the hydraulic telescopic rod 20. Then, the aluminum panel is neatly placed on the surface of the electric conveyor belt, which transports the panel. The side limiting plate 17 and the limiting baffle 18 limit the panel, allowing it to move below the horizontal baffle 8. Then, the first electric telescopic rod 7 extends, working in conjunction with the electric suction cup 9 to adhere and fix the aluminum panel. Subsequently, the power motor 11 drives the steering column 5 to rotate 180 degrees. Then, the second electric telescopic rod 14 extends, locking... The fixed pin 15 is inserted into the locking hole 16 to fix the top plate 6, thereby transferring the aluminum plate fixed by the electric suction cup 9 to the aluminum plate folding mechanism 3. At this time, the aluminum plate folding mechanism 3 can be used to fold the aluminum plate. After the folding is completed, the first electric telescopic rod 7 is controlled to retract, and the hydraulic telescopic rod 20 is retracted and reset, thereby driving the folded aluminum plate to rise. Then, the top plate 6 is controlled to rotate. In actual operation, the adjusting column 5 is rotated 90 degrees. When the folded aluminum plate is away from the aluminum plate folding mechanism 3, the electric suction cup 9 can be turned off, so that the folded aluminum plate can fall easily, thus completing the unloading. The whole processing process is highly automated, saves manpower, and improves processing efficiency.
