Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of spring bar flattening technology, specifically relating to a drive mechanism used in spring bar processing. Background Technology
[0002] Spring rods are cylindrical. If the cylindrical rod ends are directly rolled into springs, the resulting spring ends will be uneven, requiring further end-face machining, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and results in poor spring quality. Therefore, to ensure one-time forming during spring rolling, the cylindrical rod ends need to be machined into a square pyramid shape before rolling. This pyramidal structure ensures one-time forming. Currently, most flattening machines use stepper motors for their drive mechanisms. Stepper motors have poor precision, low energy efficiency, require large installation space, have poor stability, generate high noise during operation, and lack dynamic response, making them unsuitable for the drive requirements of modern fully automatic CNC flattening machines. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the technical problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a spring bar flattening drive mechanism, which reduces installation space, provides stable driving force, and has a fast response.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a spring bar flattening drive mechanism, including a motor support, a gearbox fixed to the top of the motor support, a drive shaft horizontally arranged inside the gearbox, both ends of the drive shaft being supported in the gearbox by deep groove ball bearings, and the outer end of the drive shaft being locked by a locking washer. One end of the drive shaft extends outward and is connected to a reducer and a servo motor in sequence via a coupling, and the housing of the reducer is fixed to the gearbox by multiple bolts.
[0005] The gearbox contains a first driven shaft and a second driven shaft arranged horizontally. The first driven shaft, the second driven shaft, and the drive shaft are arranged in parallel. Both ends of the first driven shaft are supported in the gearbox by deep groove ball bearings. One end of the first driven shaft extends outside the gearbox and is connected to the first roller shaft via a first universal coupling. The first driven shaft is connected to the drive shaft via a first gear set. Both ends of the second driven shaft are supported in the motor drive housing by deep groove ball bearings. One end of the second driven shaft extends outside the gearbox and is connected to the second roller shaft via a second universal coupling. The second driven shaft is connected to the first driven shaft via a second gear set.
[0006] The servo motor, the first universal joint, and the second universal joint are arranged on the same side of the gearbox. The servo motor, the first universal joint, and the second universal joint are placed between the gearbox and the flattening bracket, making reasonable use of the existing mechanical space and reducing the installation space of the entire flattening machine.
[0007] One end of the first roller shaft is mounted in a first bearing housing via a double-row tapered roller bearing. The first bearing housing is movably mounted at the bottom of the first telescopic device. Under the action of the first telescopic device, the first bearing housing can reciprocate up and down within the flattening support. A first roller ring is installed in the middle of the first roller shaft. The other end of the first roller shaft is mounted in a second bearing housing via a double-row tapered roller bearing. The second bearing housing is movably mounted at the bottom of the second telescopic device. Under the action of the second telescopic device, the second bearing housing can reciprocate up and down within the flattening support. The first bearing housing and the second bearing housing move synchronously.
[0008] One end of the second roller shaft is mounted in the third bearing housing via a double-row tapered roller bearing. The third bearing housing is movably mounted on the top of the third telescopic device. Under the action of the third telescopic device, the third bearing housing can reciprocate up and down within the flattening support. A second roller ring is installed in the middle of the second roller shaft. The other end of the second roller shaft is mounted in the fourth bearing housing via a double-row tapered roller bearing. The fourth bearing shaft is movably mounted on the top of the fourth telescopic device. Under the action of the fourth telescopic device, the fourth bearing housing can reciprocate up and down within the flattening support. The third bearing housing and the fourth bearing housing move synchronously.
[0009] The motor support consists of a top frame and a bottom frame, which are connected by an intermediate support. The intermediate support has weight-reducing through holes, and the top frame and bottom frame are supported by multiple stiffening plates. The entire motor support is lightweight and has high structural strength.
[0010] The first bearing housing and the second bearing housing are connected by two first connecting rods to ensure that the first bearing housing and the second bearing housing move synchronously; the third bearing housing and the fourth bearing housing are connected by two second connecting rods to ensure that the third bearing housing and the fourth bearing housing move synchronously.
[0011] The first gear set includes a first driving gear and a first driven gear. The first driving gear is mounted on the driving shaft, and the first driven gear is mounted on the first driven shaft. The first driven gear is locked on the first driven shaft by a retaining ring.
[0012] The second gear set includes a second driving gear and a second driven gear. The second driving gear is mounted on the first driven shaft and locked on the first driven shaft by a retaining ring. The second driven gear is mounted on the second driven shaft and locked on the second driven shaft by a retaining ring.
[0013] The first roller ring is limited to the bearings on both sides by the first fixed sleeve, and the second roller ring is limited to the bearings on both sides by the second fixed sleeve. The outer surfaces of the first roller ring and the second roller ring are pressed against each other to flatten the end of the spring bar material.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the specific beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model realizes the power composition of the flattening mechanism through the cooperation of servo motor and transmission mechanism. Through reasonable motor structure layout, the servo motor and universal coupling are installed on the same side of the gear box, which is beautiful and reduces the installation space of the entire mechanism. After the servo motor rotates, it drives the corresponding roller to rotate through the gear box, universal coupling and other transmissions to realize the force on the bar in the horizontal direction, so that it is pulled a horizontal distance and flattened. The power is stable and the precision is high, which can meet the drive requirements of fully automatic CNC flattening machine. Attached Figure Description

[0037] During operation, the servo motor 30 starts, which in turn drives the reducer 4 and the drive shaft 3 to rotate. Under the action of the first gear set and the second gear set, the first driven shaft 5, the second driven shaft 6, the first roller shaft 8, and the second roller shaft 10 rotate synchronously. Under the combined action of the first telescopic device 15 and the second telescopic device 16, the first bearing seat 11, the second bearing seat 13, and the first roller ring 12 rise and fall synchronously. Under the combined action of the third telescopic device 31 and the fourth telescopic device 32, the third bearing seat 17, the fourth bearing seat 18, and the second roller ring 19 rise and fall synchronously.
