Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of strip cap manufacturing technology, and in particular to a strip cap forming switch device. Background Technology

[0002] Strip caps, as a common structural component, are widely used in decoration, sealing, or edging in construction, home furnishing, and other fields. Their traditional forming process relies heavily on manual operation or semi-automated machinery, resulting in low production efficiency, poor product consistency, and high labor intensity. Specifically, in existing technologies, strip-shaped raw materials are typically fed in through simple guide channels, manually positioned by operators, and then bent and formed using stamping or rolling equipment. This method not only involves numerous human intervention steps and a slow production cycle but also makes it difficult to ensure precise consistency of forming pressure and angle each time, easily leading to quality defects such as out-of-tolerance dimensions and irregular shapes.

[0003] Furthermore, traditional molding equipment often has a loose structure, with unreasonable layouts of modules for feeding, conveying, and molding, resulting in large space occupation and low production line integration. The molding section mostly uses fixed molds, lacking flexible and adjustable drive and control mechanisms, making it difficult to adapt to the rapid changeover requirements of different specifications of strip caps. Simultaneously, the switching control of the entire process is usually independent of the main machine, resulting in insufficient automation and intelligence, and failing to achieve precise stroke management and linkage control. This affects molding accuracy and restricts further improvement in production efficiency. Therefore, there is an urgent need in this field for a novel strip cap molding switching device with a compact structure, high degree of automation, stable molding quality, and strong adaptability to overcome the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies.

[0021] The frame 1 is equipped with a feeding area 11 and a conveying area 12. The feeding area 11 is located on one side of the conveying area 12 and has a groove 111. The guide component 2 is located in the feeding area 11, and the transmission component 3 is located in the conveying area 12. In this embodiment, the frame 1 is clearly divided into a feeding area 11 and a conveying area 12. The feeding area 11 is located on one side of the conveying area 12 and has a groove 111. The guide component 2 is installed in the feeding area 11, and the transmission component 3 is arranged in the conveying area 12. This layout achieves reasonable partitioning and orderly connection of the material flow path. The groove 111 structure facilitates accurate positioning and stable introduction of the strip-shaped cap workpiece during the feeding stage, effectively preventing feeding deviation or jamming. The conveying area 12 is dedicated to the operation of the transmission component 3, ensuring smooth transfer of the workpiece during the forming process and avoiding the impact of vibration or positional errors on the forming quality. The overall structure has clear partitioning and dedicated functions, improving the smooth operation of the device and the reliability of the forming process.

[0022] The feeding component 2 includes a feeding bracket 21 and a guide bracket 22. The feeding bracket 21 is used for feeding materials, and the guide bracket 22 is used to guide the materials toward the transmission component 3. The guide bracket 22 is provided with a guide rod 221 and a guide element 222. The guide rod 221 is horizontally arranged on the groove 111, and the guide element 222 is provided with an adjustment hole to slide along the guide rod 221. Specifically, the guide element 222 is provided with a guide wheel 223 and a guide groove 224 for guiding the wire. In this embodiment, the feeding component 2 achieves efficient and stable material supply through the cooperation of the feeding bracket 21 and the guide bracket 22. The feeding bracket 21 is responsible for carrying the materials to be processed, ensuring an orderly feeding process; the guide bracket 22, with the help of the guide rod 221 horizontally arranged on the groove 111 and the guide element 222 with the adjustment hole, can flexibly adjust the position of the guide wheel 223 and the guide groove 224 to adapt to the guiding requirements of wires of different specifications. This structure effectively prevents material from shifting, getting stuck, or tangling during the feeding process, ensuring that the wire enters the transmission component 3 accurately and smoothly, providing a stable and continuous feeding foundation for subsequent forming processes, and improving the overall processing reliability and adaptability.

[0023] The transmission assembly 3 includes a base 31 and a transmission guide plate 32. The transmission guide plate 32 is disposed on one side of the base 31. The transmission guide plate 32 is formed by bending elastic metal to create a transmission guide groove 321, which is used for guiding the wire. Specifically, the transmission guide plate 32 has an inlet ramp 322 at the port of the transmission guide groove 321. In this embodiment, the transmission assembly 3 is provided with stable support by the base 31. Its key structure, the transmission guide plate 32, is formed by bending elastic metal to create a transmission guide groove 321 that matches the shape of the wire. The elastic metal material itself has a certain deformation recovery capability, which can adapt to the slight deviation of the wire during transmission and apply a gentle clamping force, ensuring the accuracy of guidance and effectively avoiding scratches or indentations on the wire surface that may be caused by rigid contact. The inlet ramp 322 specially provided at the port of the transmission guide groove 321 greatly optimizes the transition process of the wire from the inlet assembly 2 into the transmission assembly 3. The inclined surface can naturally guide the wire to "center" and smoothly slide into the guide groove 224, which significantly reduces the risk of impact and jamming during feeding, ensures the continuity and stability of the production process, and lays a reliable foundation for subsequent high-precision molding processes.

[0024] The gantry frame 41 includes support columns 411 and crossbeams 412. Two support columns 411 are provided, respectively located on both sides of the frame 1. The crossbeams 412 are positioned between the two support columns 411. The switch assembly 5 is mounted on the crossbeams 412. The switch assembly 5 includes a switch box 51 and a switch button 52, with the switch button 52 mounted on the switch box 51. In this embodiment, the gantry frame 41 adopts an integral frame structure with two support columns 411 positioned on both sides of the frame 1 and connected by the crossbeams 412, providing a stable and elevated mounting foundation for the switch assembly 5 across multiple workstations. This layout allows the operating interface (switch button 52) to be suspended high above the equipment, providing a wide field of vision and enabling operators to clearly observe the equipment's operating status from different angles and make emergency interventions, greatly improving operational safety and convenience. The switch box 51 integrates and encapsulates the control components, simplifying the structural arrangement on the crossbeams 412 and effectively preventing contamination of electrical components by oil and debris during processing, ensuring the long-term reliability of the control system. This high-level centralized layout optimizes the human-computer interaction experience while enhancing the overall structural rigidity and stability of the equipment.

[0025] The molding drive module 42 includes a drive motor 421, the drive end of which is connected to the molding drive shaft 43 to drive the molding drive shaft 43 to rotate, thereby causing the molding module 44 to rotate and swing. In this embodiment, the molding drive module 42 achieves optimized and efficient power transmission path through the direct drive connection between the drive motor 421 and the molding drive shaft 43. By eliminating complex intermediate transmission mechanisms, the rotational kinetic energy of the motor can be accurately and with low loss transmitted to the molding drive shaft 43, thereby driving the molding module 44 to perform stable and powerful rotational swinging movements. This direct drive method not only significantly improves transmission efficiency and reduces energy loss, but also reduces the cumulative errors and mechanical wear that may occur due to multi-stage transmission, ensuring the repeatability and consistency of the molding action. At the same time, the simplified mechanical structure improves the module's response speed and control sensitivity, making the molding process more precise and reliable, providing core power assurance for the high-quality and high-efficiency molding of the strip cap product.

[0026] The molding module 44 includes a molding connecting seat 441, a molding connecting rod 442, and a molding mounting seat 443. The molding connecting seat 441 is mounted on the molding drive shaft 43, and the molding connecting rod 442 connects the molding mounting seat 443 to the molding connecting seat 441. The molding wheel 45 is mounted on the molding mounting seat 443. In this embodiment, the molding module 44 adopts a linkage transmission mechanism composed of the molding connecting seat 441, the molding connecting rod 442, and the molding mounting seat 443, which has significant advantages such as compact structure, stable motion, and efficient force transmission. Specifically, the molding connecting seat 441 is fixed to the molding drive shaft 43, which can reliably convert the rotational motion of the drive shaft into the planar motion of the linkage mechanism. The molding connecting rod 442, as an intermediate transmission component, not only realizes the non-rigid connection between the molding mounting seat 443 and the drive shaft, but also, through its oscillating characteristics, enables the molding wheel 45 on the mounting seat to move smoothly along a predetermined trajectory, effectively avoiding rigid impact and vibration, and improving the stability and controllability of the molding process.

[0027] A forming ring 451 is provided on the outer periphery of the forming wheel 45 for rolling and forming the wire towards the transmission assembly 3. In this embodiment, the forming ring 451 serves as the working surface that directly contacts the wire. Its contour can be precisely designed and processed according to the final shape of the target strip cap, thereby ensuring continuous and shape-controllable plastic deformation of the wire and guaranteeing a high degree of consistency in product size and shape. The ring structure makes the forming process a continuous rolling contact, which greatly reduces frictional resistance and wear during the forming process compared to sliding friction. This not only improves transmission efficiency but also extends the service life of the forming wheel 45 itself and the wire.

[0028] The above embodiments only illustrate several implementation methods of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
