Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of door and window production line technology, and in particular to a profile feeding and straightening device. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of doors and windows, the profiles need to be sawed, milled, and assembled. To improve production efficiency, various processing lines (machining centers) have been developed and designed, such as sawing centers, milling centers, and corner assembly centers. However, regardless of the type of machining center, automatic profile feeding is generally required. Existing profile feeding devices commonly use longitudinal conveying and transverse loading via robotic arms. For example, a sawing and milling system and method disclosed in Chinese Patent Application No. 202011474525.0 can be referenced.

[0003] In actual production, a wide variety of door and window profiles need to be processed. One type of profile is narrow in width and has a small bottom support surface, which means that the profile cannot be transported vertically and can only be transported horizontally. However, the profile cannot be processed horizontally. For details, please refer to the attached document. Figure 4 This means that this type of material cannot be efficiently processed using machining centers, and can only be processed using the previous single equipment. This limits the use of machining centers and prevents them from fully utilizing their advantages.

[0004] In summary, how to erect flat profiles using existing feeding devices has become a pressing technical challenge for the industry. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a profile feeding and straightening device, which solves the problem that previously flat profiles could not be vertically conveyed.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: A profile feeding and straightening device includes a mounting base set on a feeding machine frame, a straightening slide seat slidably mounted on the mounting base, a follower reset device between the mounting base and the straightening slide seat, a straightening plate rotatably mounted on the straightening slide seat, a straightening driver rotatably mounted on the straightening slide seat, the straightening driver being connected to the straightening plate, the straightening driver driving the straightening plate to rotate upward and cooperate with the guide roller on the feeding machine frame to straighten the profile located on the material support roller, the material support roller being set on the feeding machine frame.

[0007] The mounting base is provided with a longitudinal straightening guide rail, and a straightening slider is provided on the straightening guide rail. The straightening slide is set on the straightening slider.

[0008] The follow-up resetter is a cylinder or a spring.

[0009] The straightening actuator is a straightening actuator cylinder.

[0010] The mounting base has a longitudinally aligned guide rail on one side and a longitudinally clamping guide rail on the other side. The clamping guide rail has a clamping slider, the clamping slider has a clamping slide seat, the clamping slide seat has a clamping roller, and the feeding frame has a clamping cylinder connected to the clamping slide seat.

[0011] The present invention adopts the above solution and has the following beneficial effects: By installing a straightening slide, a straightening plate, a follow-up resetter, and a straightening drive cylinder on the existing feeding frame, the profile lying flat on the support roller is pushed upward by rotating the straightening plate. Under the action of the guide roller, the profile is uprighted. Then, the straightened profile is clamped by the clamping roller, and finally, the feeding robot clamps the profile for feeding. This method fully utilizes the guide roller, clamping roller, and other components in the existing feeding device, and uses a simple flipping drive structure to achieve the uprighting operation of the lying profile. The overall structural design is simple and reasonable, the profile straightening is precise and efficient, meeting the requirements of profile conveying and broadening the application range of machining centers.

Profile. Detailed Implementation

[0017] To clearly illustrate the technical features of this solution, the present invention will be described in detail below through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0018] like Figure 1-3As shown, the profile feeding and straightening device includes a mounting base 2 mounted on a feeding frame 1. A straightening slide 3 is longitudinally slidable on the mounting base 2. A follower resetter 4 is provided between the mounting base 2 and the straightening slide 3. A straightening plate 5 is rotatably mounted on the straightening slide 3. A straightening driver 6 is rotatably mounted on the straightening slide 3. The straightening driver 6 is connected to the straightening plate 5. The straightening driver 6 drives the straightening plate 5 to rotate upwards and cooperates with the guide roller 7 on the feeding frame 1 to straighten the profile 16 located on the support roller 8. The support roller 8 is mounted on the feeding frame 1. By setting the straightening slide 3, straightening plate 5, follower resetter 4, and straightening drive cylinder 6 on the existing feeding frame 1, the profile 16 lying flat on the support roller 8 is pushed upwards by driving the straightening plate 5 to rotate. Under the action of the guide roller 7, the profile 16 is upright. Then, the straightened profile 16 is clamped by the clamping roller 14, and finally, the feeding robot clamps the profile for feeding. By making full use of components such as the guide roller 7 and clamping roller 14 in the existing feeding device, and then adopting a simple flipping drive structure, the vertical operation of the flat profile 16 is realized. The overall structure design is simple and reasonable, meets the requirements of profile conveying, and broadens the application range of the machining center.

[0019] The mounting base 2 is longitudinally provided with a straightening guide rail 9, and a straightening slider 10 is provided on the straightening guide rail 9. The straightening slide 3 is disposed on the straightening slider 10. The longitudinal sliding setting of the straightening slide 3 is realized by using a guide rail slider mechanism, or a sliding guide structure can be used to realize sliding guidance.

[0020] The follow-up resetter 4 is either a cylinder or a spring. When a cylinder is used, air pressure is used to achieve the follow-up and reset functions. The air pressure should not be too high, otherwise the follow-up will be limited.

[0021] The centering actuator 6 is a centering drive cylinder. The drive action is achieved through a cylinder, a mature technology. Existing machining centers are equipped with air sources and pneumatic control components, allowing for direct application integration.

[0022] The mounting base 2 has a longitudinally aligned guide rail 9 on one side and a longitudinally clamping guide rail 11 on the other side. A clamping slider 12 is mounted on the clamping guide rail 11, and a clamping slide block 13 is mounted on the clamping slider 12. A clamping roller 14 is mounted on the clamping slide block 13. A clamping cylinder 15 is mounted on the feeding frame 1, and the clamping cylinder 15 is connected to the clamping slide block 13. Integrating the clamping structure from the original feeding frame 1 onto the mounting base 2 offers advantages such as compact structure and convenient and quick installation.

[0023] Instructions for use of the profile feeding and straightening device in this application: In practical applications, the profile feeding and straightening device of this application needs to be installed on the feeding frame 1 of the existing feeding device. The number of profile feeding and straightening devices of this application can be appropriately increased or decreased according to the length of the conveyor line (i.e., the existing feeding device). When the profile 16 is fed horizontally, this device needs to be activated. If the profile 16 is conveyed vertically, this device is not required.

[0024] The profile feeding process is as follows: First, the profile 16 is placed on a longitudinally arranged conveyor belt (existing technology). The conveyor belt transports the profile 16 to the support roller 8. If the profile 16 is upright, the clamping cylinder 15 is directly activated to clamp the profile 16 on the support roller 8. If the profile 16 is lying flat, the straightening drive 6 is activated first. The straightening drive 6 drives the straightening plate 5 to rotate upward, and at the same time, the straightening plate 5 drives the lying profile 16 to flip upward (the straightening plate 5 rotates upward). During the process, the shape of the profile 16 will also cause the straightening slide 3 to slide adaptively. Under the action of the roller 7, the straightening plate 5 (i.e., the straightening plate 5 is erected) will straighten the profile 16. Then, the clamping cylinder 15 will be activated to clamp the straightened profile 16 through the clamping roller 14. Subsequently, the straightening driver 6 will be reset and the straightening slide 3 will also be reset under the action of the follow-up resetter 4. Finally, the loading robot (existing technology) will clamp the straightened profile 16 for loading.

[0025] The above specific embodiments should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, any alternative improvements or modifications made to the embodiments of this utility model shall fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0026] Any aspects of this utility model not described in detail are known to those skilled in the art.
