Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bolt processing and manufacturing technology, specifically to a high-efficiency forming equipment for bolt head structures. Background Technology
[0002] Bolts are common fasteners, and their main structure includes a bolt head, bolt shank, and threads. The bolt head is typically formed using a cold heading process. Mature multi-station cold heading machines are readily available for purchase. During operation, the corresponding cold heading die is installed according to the shape and size of the bolt head. Multi-station cold heading machines are highly efficient automated equipment that can significantly improve production efficiency in mass production. However, due to their higher cost, they are not suitable for small-batch production. Therefore, for small-batch bolt production, a press is often used instead of a cold heading machine to form the bolt head structure. This involves mounting the cold heading die on the press and cold heading the material. For example, for hexagonal socket head cap screws, two cold heading machines are often used. One machine is equipped with a first cold heading die for forming the cylindrical structure, and the other machine is equipped with a second cold heading die for forming the hexagonal socket. During production, the end of the bar stock is first cold-headed into a cylindrical structure on one machine, and then transferred to the other machine for cold-heading into the hexagonal socket structure. Although this method reduces costs compared to using a multi-station cold heading machine, the economic advantage is not significant due to lower production efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0003] This invention provides a high-efficiency bolt head forming equipment, which can improve the processing efficiency of bolt head forming in small-batch production, thereby improving economic benefits.
[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A high-efficiency bolt head forming device includes a first press, a second press, and a workpiece circulation conveying device. A first cold heading die is mounted on the first press head of the first press; a second cold heading die is mounted on the second press head of the second press; a carrier is arranged on the support of the workpiece circulation conveying device, and a cylinder assembly is provided on the workpiece circulation conveying device; the cylinder assembly can drive the carrier to move cyclically in a set step length; the carrier has holes for fixing bar stock; the first press head and the second press head are sequentially positioned above the circulation path of the carrier.
[0006] Compared with the prior art, this utility model sets up a first press, a second press, and a workpiece circulation conveying device. During operation, the bar stock is placed in the hole on the carrier and moves intermittently according to the designed step length, continuously circulating. When it moves to the bottom of the press head, the press head presses down to perform cold heading. After two cold heading processes by the first cold heading die and the second cold heading die, the bolt head can be efficiently formed. This is suitable for the efficient forming of small batch bolt head structures, improving enterprise efficiency.
[0007] As an optimization, in the aforementioned high-efficiency bolt head forming equipment, the support has a carrier groove, and the carriers are placed in two rows in the carrier groove, namely a first circulation row and a second circulation row, and the carrier groove has two empty spaces; the cylinder assembly includes a first cylinder, a second cylinder, a third cylinder, and a fourth cylinder, the first cylinder is used to advance the carriers of the first circulation row forward by one step; the second cylinder is used to push the carriers at the end of the first circulation row into the second circulation row; the third cylinder is used to advance the carriers of the second circulation row forward by one step; and the fourth cylinder is used to push the carriers at the end of the second circulation row into the first circulation row. The workpiece circulating conveying device adopts the above structural design, which can meet the requirement of the carriers moving cyclically according to a set step length, and is easy to implement and has high reliability.
[0008] As an optimization, in the aforementioned high-efficiency bolt head structure forming equipment, the cylinder assembly further includes a pusher plate; a pusher plate is connected to the piston rod ends of the first cylinder, the second cylinder, the third cylinder, and the fourth cylinder. The pusher plate enhances stability during the movement of the carrier.
[0009] As an optimization, in the aforementioned high-efficiency bolt head forming equipment, the first and second presses are positioned on both sides of the workpiece circulation conveying device. During operation, the first and second press heads press down simultaneously. Therefore, during operation, both sides of the workpiece circulation conveying device are simultaneously impacted by the presses, resulting in better stability compared to a single-sided force application.
[0010] As an optimization, in the aforementioned high-efficiency bolt head forming equipment, a feeding mechanism is provided at the end of the second circulation column. The feeding mechanism includes a clamping device, a flipping device, and a fifth cylinder. The flipping device is connected to the fifth cylinder, and the clamping device is connected to the flipping device. Thus, automatic feeding can be achieved using the feeding mechanism. Specifically, the fifth cylinder extends, the clamping device clamps the carrier at the end of the second circulation column, then the fifth cylinder retracts, the flipping device flips the carrier 180°, and the workpiece falls under gravity. Afterward, the flipping device resets, the fifth cylinder extends, the clamping device releases the carrier, and the carrier returns to its original position. Further, the flipping device is a rotary cylinder, and the clamping device is a gripper cylinder.
[0011] As an optimization, in the aforementioned high-efficiency bolt head forming equipment, a storage box is provided below the feeding mechanism. The storage box is used to store the workpiece after the bolt head has been processed. Attached Figure Description
