Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sheet metal processing technology, and more specifically, it relates to a sheet metal grooving device. Background Technology

[0002] In existing sheet metal grooving processes, operators typically use the simplest and most direct method: placing the sheet metal to be processed flat on the grooving machine's worktable and relying solely on the sheet metal's own weight and the static friction between the worktable to maintain its positional stability before starting the grooving process. This simple placement method has certain shortcomings. When the grooving tool rotates at high speed and cuts the sheet metal, the cutting force, vibration force, and thrust generated by the tool feed act on the sheet metal. These dynamic loads can easily overcome the limited static friction between the sheet metal and the worktable, causing the sheet metal to undergo slight displacement, rotation, or vibration during processing. The instability of the sheet metal's position directly leads to changes in the relative positional relationship between the grooving tool and the sheet metal, causing the actual groove position to deviate from the predetermined processing path. This results in quality defects such as groove position deviation, uneven groove, and uneven groove depth, seriously affecting the processing accuracy and finished product quality of the sheet metal grooving.

[0003] To compensate for the instability of simple placement methods, some production sites use manual pressing of the boards by operators to assist in fixation. This attempts to increase the friction between the board and the workbench by applying downward pressure, preventing movement during grooving. However, this manual pressing method not only fails to solve the problem but also introduces new technical defects and safety risks. First, the magnitude, direction, and stability of the manual pressing pressure depend entirely on the operator's physical strength and experience. Different operators, and even the same operator at different times, apply significantly different pressures, making it difficult to guarantee consistent and reliable fixation. When operators experience fatigue leading to reduced pressure or distraction, the board's fixation weakens or even fails. Second, manual pressing requires the operator's hands to be close to the high-speed rotating grooving tool, posing a mechanical injury hazard. If the board suddenly moves due to instability or the operator's hand position is not properly controlled, it can easily cause workplace injuries such as cuts or lacerations to the fingers, affecting work efficiency and health. Utility Model Content

[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a plate grooving device to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] (II) Technical Solution To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A plate grooving device includes a grooving machine with a worktable on its surface and two sets of mounting holes. It also includes a fixing mechanism with two sets, each consisting of a fixing cylinder containing a ring. The ring has multiple sets of push springs on its upper surface, and a sliding ring connected to the other end of each push spring. The sliding ring is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixing cylinder. The fixing cylinder contains multiple sets of elastic plates located above the sliding ring.

[0006] Preferably, a pressure ring is provided above the fixed cylinder, and multiple sets of spacers are provided between the pressure rings. A circular plate is connected to the other end of each spacer. This structure realizes the overall frame construction of the unlocking mechanism through the connection and cooperation between the pressure ring and the circular plate, providing stable structural support for the subsequent pressing operation of the pressure ring and the transmission of force, and ensuring the reliable execution of the unlocking action.

[0007] Preferably, the lower end face of the circular plate is provided with a compression spring, and the lower end face of the compression spring is connected to a vertical rod. The vertical rod is slidably connected to the inner side of the fixed cylinder. This design realizes the return of the vertical rod to its original position after unlocking through the elastic reset action of the compression spring.

[0008] Preferably, a limiting groove is provided at the bottom inner side of the fixed cylinder, and a limiting rod is connected to the lower end face of the vertical rod. The limiting rod is inserted into the limiting groove and slidably connected to the limiting groove. This limiting structure provides a guiding function.

[0009] Preferably, the top outer wall of the vertical rod is provided with multiple sets of spacers, and the other end of the spacers is connected to an unlocking ring. The outer wall of the unlocking ring has a groove. This design achieves the outward expansion and unlocking of the elastic piece by the downward movement and compression of the unlocking ring. The groove accommodates the outwardly expanded elastic piece, making the unlocking action reliable and improving the convenience of disassembly operation.

[0010] Preferably, a pressure plate is provided above the pressure ring, a connecting rod is connected to the upper end of the pressure plate, and a horizontal plate is connected to the other end of the connecting rod. This force transmission structure effectively transforms the insertion action of the pressure plate into the pressing action of the horizontal plate on the upper surface of the plate, thereby achieving stable fixation of the plate.

[0011] Preferably, the lower end face of the pressure plate is provided with multiple sets of insert rods, which are slidably connected to the inner side wall of the fixed cylinder. Spacing grooves are formed between the multiple sets of insert rods, and the spacing grooves are adapted to the spacer strips and spacer plates. Multiple sets of adjustment grooves are opened on the surface of the insert rods, and the adjustment grooves are adapted to the elastic plates. This design achieves smooth sliding of the insert rods through the guiding cooperation of the spacing grooves. The segmented design of the multiple sets of adjustment grooves allows the fixing mechanism to adapt to plates of different thicknesses. The snap-fit ​​between the elastic plate and the adjustment groove achieves locking, which improves the versatility, ease of operation and fixing reliability of the device as a whole.

[0012] (III) Beneficial Effects Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a plate grooving device with the following advantages: This device achieves rapid and reliable fixing of the plate through a fixing mechanism. The operator only needs to insert the insert rod into place, the elastic plate snaps into the adjustment groove, and the locking action is completed by the push spring. No additional locking operation is required, which simplifies the operation steps and improves the clamping efficiency. The snap-fit ​​fixing method between the elastic plate and the adjustment groove provides a stable locking force, effectively preventing the horizontal plate from loosening due to vibration during the grooving process, ensuring the stability of the plate position throughout the processing, and improving the processing quality. This device is equipped with two sets of fixing mechanisms to simultaneously press the two sides of the plate. The two sets of horizontal plates act symmetrically on the upper surface of the plate, avoiding warping or rotational displacement of the plate caused by unilateral force. It is suitable for fixing thin plates and large-sized plates. The balanced double-sided pressing ensures full fit between the plate and the workbench.

[0013] This device features a one-button unlocking mechanism that uses a pressure ring to drive the unlocking ring downwards, squeezing the elastic sheet outwards to release the locking mechanism. This allows for rapid release from the fixed state. Operators simply need to press down on the pressure ring to unlock, eliminating the need for tools or complex operations, thus reducing disassembly difficulty and time costs. The groove design to accommodate the outwardly expanding elastic sheet ensures the reliability of the unlocking action, improving operational convenience and production efficiency. The device also incorporates multiple adjustment slots on the insertion rod surface, allowing the fixing mechanism to adapt to plates of different thicknesses. The elastic sheet can be locked in different positions within these adjustment slots. Operators can select the appropriate insertion depth based on the plate thickness to lock the corresponding position without needing to replace special clamps or perform complex adjustments, enhancing the device's flexibility.

[0019] Please see Figures 1-6A grooving device for sheet metal includes a grooving machine 11, a workbench 12 on which two sets of mounting holes 13 are formed on the surface of the workbench 12; it also includes a fixing mechanism, which has two sets, including a fixing cylinder 21, a ring 22 inside the fixing cylinder 21, multiple sets of push springs 23 on the upper end face of the ring 22, and a sliding ring 24 connected to the other end of the push spring 23. The sliding ring 24 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixing cylinder 21. Multiple sets of elastic plates 25 are provided inside the fixing cylinder 21 and are located above the sliding ring 24. A pressure ring 26 is provided above the fixing cylinder 21, and multiple sets of spacer strips 27 are provided between the pressure rings 26. The other end of the spacer strip 27 is connected to a circular plate 28, and a pressure spring 29 is provided on the lower end face of the circular plate 28. A vertical rod 210 is connected to the lower end face of the pressure spring 29 and is slidably connected to the inner side of the fixing cylinder 21. The bottom end of the inner side of the fixing cylinder 21 is open. A limiting groove 211 is provided, and a limiting rod 212 is connected to the lower end face of the vertical rod 210. The limiting rod 212 is inserted into the limiting groove 211 and slidably connected to the limiting groove 211. Multiple sets of partition plates 213 are provided on the top outer wall of the vertical rod 210. An unlocking ring 214 is connected to the other end of the partition plate 213. A groove 215 is opened on the outer wall of the unlocking ring 214. A pressure plate 216 is provided above the pressure ring 26. A connecting rod 217 is connected to the upper end face of the pressure plate 216. A horizontal plate 218 is connected to the other end of the connecting rod 217. Multiple sets of insert rods 219 are provided on the lower end face of the pressure plate 216. The insert rods 219 are slidably connected to the inner side wall of the fixed cylinder 21. A partition groove 220 is formed between the multiple sets of insert rods 219. The partition groove 220 is adapted to the partition strip 27 and the partition plate 213. Multiple sets of adjustment grooves 221 are opened on the surface of the insert rods 219. The adjustment grooves 221 are adapted to the elastic sheet 25.

[0020] In this invention, when grooving a sheet material, the sheet material to be grooved can be placed on the workbench 12. Then, a fixing mechanism is used to press a horizontal plate 218 onto the upper surface of the sheet material to fix it in place. The grooving machine 11 then grooves the sheet material. Specifically, after placing the sheet material on the workbench 12, the operator holds a pressure plate 216 and aligns the spacer grooves 220 between the multiple sets of insert rods 219 below the pressure plate 216 with the spacer strips 27. During insertion, the spacer plate 213 slides within the spacer grooves 220, and multiple sets of elastic plates 25 are inserted into the adjustment grooves 221 until the lower end of the insert rod 219 abuts against the upper surface of the slip ring 24. The insertion is then complete. At this point, under the pushing force of the push spring 23, the push spring 23 pushes the multiple sets of insert rods 219 upwards through the slip ring 24, causing the elastic plates 25 to tightly abut against the bottom of the adjustment groove 221, thus completing the insertion. With plate 219 fixed, the horizontal plate 218 above the pressure plate 216 presses against the upper end of the plate to fix it. After that, grooving can be done. After grooving, the plate needs to be removed. At this time, the worker can press down the pressure ring 26. The pressure ring 26 drives the vertical rod 210 to move down through the pressure spring 29. The limiting rod 212 slides in the limiting groove 211. The vertical rod 210 drives the unlocking ring 214 to move down synchronously through multiple sets of spacers 213. The unlocking ring 214 squeezes the elastic sheet 25, causing multiple sets of elastic sheets 25 to expand outward until multiple sets of elastic sheets 25 are stuck in the groove 215 opened on the outside of the unlocking ring 214. At this time, the elastic sheet 25 is released from the fixed state of the adjusting groove 221. The insertion rod 219 can be pulled out through the pressure plate 216, thereby releasing the pressure of the horizontal plate 218 on the upper end of the plate. After removing the two sets of horizontal plates 218 in sequence, the plate can be removed.
