Technical field
The present invention relates to and can use work transfer device that workpiece is delivered to rearmounted forcing press and the tandem press machine system that tool replacing apparatus can be used to change the instrument be installed on work transfer device and its tool changing method from the precondition pressure machine arranged along workpiece throughput direction.
Background technology
Being provided with in the tandem press machine system of multiple forcing press along workpiece throughput direction, by work transfer device, workpiece is delivered to rearmounted forcing press from preposition forcing press, and utilizes each forcing press to form processing.Work transfer device uses instrument to carry out holding workpiece.The modular instrument arranging workpiece maintaining body (such as multiple vacuum suction cup) according to workpiece form, weight made by this instrument more, is designed to carry out dismounting by cross bar on work transfer device.That is, by the link maintaining part of cross bar relative to work transfer device being loaded and unloaded, thus instrument is loaded and unloaded on work transfer device (link maintaining part).
When changing punch process product (product), need more mold exchange.In most cases the form of workpiece (raw material), size, weight also change.In this case, the instrument (below in this manual referred to as " current tool ") that the instrument of work transfer device must be used from current punch process is replaced by the instrument (referred to as " next instrument ") that will use in next punch process.Tool replacing apparatus is the device for the cross bar (referred to as " working as front rail ") being installed with current tool being replaced by the cross bar (referred to as " next cross bar ") being installed with next instrument.Tool changing operation is the machine exterior after taking out of, and replaces when front rail and replaces with next cross bar having installed next instrument in advance.In addition, sometimes after taking out of from pulling down current tool when front rail, and be used as next cross bar installing next instrument thereafter.
For known tool replacing apparatus, disclose and carry the known example 1 (such as Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication 2004-50290 publication) of synchronous synchronous transport mode and the known example 2 (such as Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication 2005-161379 publication) of independent mode of movement with mould.
It is the structure tool replacing apparatus be made up of dwang (12) being rotatably mounted in sliding stand (backing plate) in known example 1.Along with in order to more mold exchange and carrying-in/carrying-out backing plate, tool replacing apparatus (12) is taken out of to machine exterior or moves into from machine exterior.That is, dwang is erected and accommodates to work as front rail, and pull to backing plate side, thereafter backing plate is taken out of machine exterior.That is, when taking out of of front mold is synchronous with working as taking out of of front rail.
After the mould used in current punch process (below in this manual referred to as " when front mold ") being replaced by the mould (referred to as " next mould ") that will use in next punch process in machine exterior, front rail will be worked as and be replaced by next cross bar, then with in forcing press, move into backing plate (mould) synchronously carry.After being replaced by next mould, by dwang from backing plate layback from, next cross bar is submitted to work transfer device (link maintaining part).Then, dwang is rotated with level.
Further, also describe the tool replacing apparatus owing to being backing plate side rotation mode, therefore can reach the effect not hindering and enter in forcing press.But, because tool replacing apparatus (dwang etc.) 12 always to support as level by needs, therefore for the narrower tandem press machine system of spacing between precondition pressure machine and rearmounted forcing press, be difficult to adopt said structure.
For this point, in known example 2, the chassis can walked along the guide rail (r1, r2) extending to machine exterior between forcing press is set, the collecting platform (3) being used for accommodating cross bar (cb) is installed on this chassis (1).Further, in order to prevent when width narrower and highly higher shake, tilt, utilize many rollers (r01, r02, r03) to seek the stable posture of chassis (collecting platform) relative to guide rail.Even if in it is possible to provide conveying device between the narrower forcing press that also successfully cross bar (cb) can be taken out of machine exterior or move into from machine exterior of the spacing between a kind of forcing press.
In this known example 2, does not change the record of operation and die change operation about the relation of conveying device between forcing press and work transfer device, cross bar, but supposition can use the tool bar replacing operation that between this forcing press, conveying device is carried out to perform in the following order.That is, from machine exterior, conveying device between the forcing press of sky (collecting platform (chassis)) is moved between forcing press, and when front rail is from work transfer device collecting platform, conveying device between this forcing press is taken out of machine exterior.In machine exterior, unload from collecting platform and work as front rail, then next cross bar is installed on collecting platform.Then, again from machine exterior, conveying device between forcing press is moved between forcing press, conveying device between the forcing press next cross bar being submitted to standby zero load.Then, conveying device between forcing press is taken out of machine exterior again.

So, just make tool replacing apparatus 30 back and forth advance between 11 and machine exterior 105 1 time between forcing press, just can carry out the operation changing cross bar 61.Working as before front rail 61B (current tool 65B) takes out of machine exterior 105, namely in machine exterior 105, next cross bar 61A (next instrument 65A) can be loaded into cross bar loading part 31 (another loads receiving portion 33U) in advance in forcing press running.The problem (comprise the time back and forth taking out of the tool changing operation moved into for twice is long and operation is difficult) of known example 2 can be eliminated.
Lifting unit 70 is the mechanisms for making cross bar loading part 31 be elevated relative to chassis 51, makes operator can perform the tool changing operation of machine exterior 105 with difficult, not happy posture.Interposition (LM) during low level (LL), the tool changing when chassis that the lifting unit 70 of present embodiment is designed to cross bar loading part 31 lifting to be positioned Fig. 2, Fig. 4 bracket mark is advanced and cross bar provides time a high position (LH) these three grades.
In the diagram, lifting unit 70 is formed by lifting cylinder device (lift cylinder 71, piston 72) and interfix portion 81.That is, lifting cylinder device itself adopts 2 grades of simple structure to switch positioned-lifting modes, and is designed to carry out exactly three grades by combining with interfix portion 81 and switches and locate.Certainly, also multistage switching maybe each position can can be changed by such as servomotor control mode.
Each lift cylinder 71 is arranged in apparatus main body 41 (stationary part 43), and the top of piston 72 is connected with cross bar loading part 31.Link up with corresponding each gear 74,74 that the tooth bar 75,75 on the movable part 44,44 being installed on left and right (Yt direction) shown in Fig. 3 is meshed with the synchronizing shaft 73 extended along Yt direction.Thereby, it is possible to the cross bar loading part 31,31 of left and right is maintained sustained height and can synchronization lifting.Available brake device 77 stops rotating freely of synchronizing shaft 73 to stablize the position after keeping lift adjustment.
Fig. 4 (B) is that cross bar loading part 31 drops to low level (LL), is installed on the state that the snap-latch piece 76 of tooth bar 73 bottom abuts with the low level stop part 88 in stationary part (43).The center of gravity and can realizing that this low level (LL) is reduction of tool changing position 30 is advanced the position of high speed and smoothization.In addition, this low level (LL) is chosen as and can avoids and be arranged on other devices between forcing press 11 to machine exterior 105, the position of disturbing occurs machine.Low level (LL) is lower, more can promote to comprise the integrally-built simplification of chassis of guide rail 55 and the snap fastener of chassis 51 of advancing, and owing to lowering the center of gravity, therefore can realize stabilisation of advancing further.
Fig. 4 (C) is the state that cross bar loading part 31 rises to a high position (LH), snap-latch piece 76 abuts with the high-order stop part 86 in stationary part (43).But, due to work transfer device 20 and forcing press 10 (comprising the mould on the backing plate 14) structure of side, the relation of action, and dependency is had in selection (constructing), be therefore difficult in tool changing operation side allow to change its structure, function.
At this, high-order (LH) is chosen as change work transfer device 20 not being carried out by force to structure, function, and the reception that just can realize the cross bar 61 carried out between forcing press (11) inherent tool replacing apparatus 30 (31) and work transfer device 20 provides the fast of operation and the position of smoothization.By this high position (LH) being chosen as higher position in allowed band, thus the lifting travel of feeding arm 21 (linking maintaining part 25) can be reduced, for reducing the cost of work transfer device 20 and making because lifting time shortens production efficiency raising also be effective.
When directly being taken out of machine exterior 105 under the state that tool replacing apparatus 30 (31) is set in a high position (LH), identical with known example 2, in order to tool replacing apparatus 30 (especially chassis 51) being made more firmly structure and avoiding interference, the device of periphery, machine can in structure, functionally sacrifice a part by force.Therefore, be set as under low level (LL) state shown in Fig. 4 (B) directly from work transfer device 20 side collecting (reception) cross bar 61, considering from the situation of above-mentioned work transfer device (20) side, is improper and disadvantageous.
And, known tool replacing apparatus is such as when known example 2, be situation according to each press machine system and have selected the fixed structure of an admissible position, it is impossible for therefore will carrying out optimization to these two characteristics of characteristic of the characteristic about the handing-over with work transfer device 20 and the carrying-in/carrying-out (advancing) about tool replacing apparatus 30 simultaneously.In most cases, for avoiding and the relations such as peripheral device interfere, the structure simplification of chassis, select alap position as far as possible.
But this consideration mode (selection reference) mainly considers situation, the position of manufacturer one side, lack the consideration of the position of user one side to practice.By observing some actual machine operations in the past, sometimes carry out the burden heavier (greatly) of the operator of tool changing operation in machine exterior 105.That is, when job position is too low, operation to be carried out with bending uncomfortable posture.Also be same reason when job position is extremely too high.Especially current tool 65B is unloaded from the front rail 61B that works as being loaded into cross bar loading part 31, and when becoming next cross bar 61A installing next instrument 65A thereafter, with to unload as front rail 61B (current tool 65B) and compared with the situation being replaced by ready next cross bar 61A (next instrument 65A), its burden greatly.
Here we can see that, machine exterior is changed job position and be set to operator can carry out rapidly tool changing operation without difficulty position with the most comfortable posture, its result contributes to enhancing productivity and reducing costs very much.Therefore, be designed to the interposition (LM) shown in Fig. 4 (A) tool changing operation to be carried out.Interposition (LM) can realize the structure of lifting unit 70, the simplification of function as described above by importing interfix portion 81, and accurately locates.
Interfix portion 81 is by connecting rod cylinder 84 and can be formed by the interposition stop part 83 being arranged at the L-shaped shape rotated centered by the fulcrum shaft 82 on bracket 89.Before and after the lifting action of lifting unit 70 starts, interposition stop part 83 is switched to the level shown in Fig. 4 (A), carrying out position constraint by making to engage (locking) with the snap-latch piece 76 of movable part 44 (tooth bar 75) one in the uphill process of piston 72 in interposition stop part 83, being positioned interposition (LM).Relative to the fixed position of the above-below direction of stationary part 43 this interposition (LM) to be changed simply be set in ideal position by changing bracket 89.
But, no matter when providing as front rail 61B from work transfer device 20 to tool replacing apparatus 30, or when accommodating (reception) next cross bar 61A from tool replacing apparatus 30, all need to make feeding arm 21 (linking maintaining part 25) move up and down ormal weight exactly.Therefore, for the workpiece pipage control (the moving up and down control of such as feeding arm 21) of work transfer device 20, with detect that with limit switch target location is for condition is to compared with positioning control mode after the detection stopping motor positioning, preferably to be equivalent to the pulse signal of displacement for inputting the quantitative positioning control mode of carrying out position control.And the positioning precision of the control mode of the latter is high, structure is also simple.
But the above-below direction relative position of tool replacing apparatus 30 and work transfer device 20 changes sometimes.Above-mentioned change is caused due to mechanical realization, load change, thermal deformation etc.Across shock absorbing device special is directly arranged at pedestal 200, the relative position change on above-below direction also can be produced at work transfer device 20.
Especially as shown in Figure 2, each forcing press 10 (pedestal 205) across can the damping device (such as yielding rubber) 201 of displacement in the vertical direction be arranged on pedestal 200, when work transfer device 20 is arranged on the framework of this forcing press 10 or pedestal 205 by way of parenthesis (being that is indirectly arranged on the situation on pedestal 200 across damping device 201), great changes can be produced.That is, even if the structure of forcing press 10 and work transfer device 20, weight are identical, because the kind of mould and instrument is different, work transfer device 20 (25) changes relative to the above-below direction relative position of tool replacing apparatus 30.So, provide from work transfer device 20 to tool replacing apparatus 30 as front rail 61B, produce impact, noise, and distortion, the breakage of machine may be caused.
For die change frequency higher for Multi-varieties and Small-batch Production press machine system for, this problem must solve.Therefore, as the mechanism of the above-below direction change in location for absorbing tool replacing apparatus 30 (cross bar loading part 31) side and work transfer device 20 (linking maintaining part 25) side, float portion 90 is set, makes when cross bar loads cross bar loading part 31 (33) can automatically move up and down along with the above-below direction change in location of work transfer device 20 (feeding arm 21) side.
In Fig. 5, Fig. 6, float portion 90 is formed by spring 91, bracket 92 and Linear guide (Stationary side Linear guide 35, drawer at movable side Linear guide 95).The bracket 92 of L-shaped shape can be arranged in loading part main body 32 movably by the above-below direction of Linear guide along Fig. 6.This bracket 92 is provided with and loads resettlement section 33D, 33U, utilize spring 91 upwards to exert a force to this bracket 92.That is, loading resettlement section 33D, 33U can be remained quick condition.
The intensity of spring 91 is chosen as in arbitrary situation below all can without the value work as front rail 61B with impacting be supplied to tool replacing apparatus 30 (loading resettlement section 33D).The intensity of spring 91 is such as following value: mold weight in maximum weight when above-below direction location variation is maximum (such as 2 ~ 5mm), float portion 90 can absorb the value of the above-below direction maximum position variable quantity (2 ~ 5mm) of work transfer device 20 (linking maintaining part 25) side.Place is put in lowermost position after absorption, and as shown in Figure 6, tool loading portion 31 (loading resettlement section 33D) is also retained as the state of floating relative to the upper surface of loading part main body 32.In addition, the intensity of spring 91 is values as follows: mold weight in minimum weight when above-below direction location variation is minimum (and even zero), (contact) can be loaded in the value of loading resettlement section 33D by what be held in work transfer device 20 (linking maintaining part 25) as front rail 61B.Wherein, when above-below direction location variation is minimum (and even zero), spring 91 also can be set as with the value of minimum displacement downwards (flexure).
By inserting the spacing hole (not shown) of cross bar 61 side in declining at the spacer pin component 34 shown in Fig. 5, Fig. 6, reliably plane positioning is carried out to tool replacing apparatus 30 (loading part main body 32).
In tandem press machine system 1 preferably, implementation tool replacing options as described below.
In forcing press running:
Each forcing press 10 carry out with respectively when the punch process that front mold is corresponding.After process finishing, the work transfer device 20 of Fig. 2 is delivered to rearmounted forcing press 10D by using current tool 65A (as front rail 61A) to adsorb the workpiece that remain from preposition forcing press 10U.Repeatedly carry out this punch process and workpiece conveying.The X-direction being located at the notch part 101 on flooring element 100 is sized to and the narrower coupling member 48 of the width shown in Fig. 4 can be supplied to run through and can ensure the size of advancing smoothly of chassis 51 and make minimal openings portion, therefore, it is possible to the chip preventing punch process from producing disperses to underground.In this forcing press running (processing), tool replacing apparatus 30 is positioned at the machine exterior 105 shown in Fig. 1, Fig. 2 (A).In machine exterior 105, make lifting unit 70 and interfix portion 81 work, cross bar loading part 31 (33D, 33U) is risen in advance the interposition (LM) shown in Fig. 2 (A) and Fig. 4 (A).
The preparation of next instrument:
In the running of this forcing press, in machine exterior 105, next cross bar 61A (next instrument 65A) is loaded into another loading resettlement section 33U, the 33U shown in Fig. 3 (A) of tool replacing apparatus 30 by operator.That is, next instrument 65A can be prepared in advance.Before and after this, from side's loading resettlement section 33D, a 33D unload first take out of when front rail 61B (current tool 65B) (specifically, be relative to current pressure operation last operation when front rail 61, namely relative to present ongoing pressure process just before pressure process when front rail 61, namely old when front rail 61).In the tool changing end of job of machine exterior 105.In addition, also can from be loaded into a side load receiving portion 33D, 33D unload current tool 65B as front rail 61B, should change and move to the opposing party and load resettlement section 33U, 33U and in this prior cross bar 61B install next instrument 65A and make next cross bar 61A by front rail 61B, thus carry out the tool changing in machine exterior 105.No matter which kind of situation, cross bar loading part 31 (33D, 33U) is all located in the desirable interposition (LM) shown in Fig. 2 (A), Fig. 4 (A), therefore, it is possible to carry out high efficiency operation with comfortable posture without difficulty.Because the time is also fully rich, can accurately and carry out operation safely.Also the errors such as instrument setup error can be stopped.After the end of job, remove interfix portion 81 (interposition stop part 83) and make lifting unit 70 down maneuver, thus cross bar loading part 31 (33D, 33U) is lowered to the low level (LL) shown in Fig. 4 (B) from the interposition (LM) of Fig. 4 (A).All can be delivered between forcing press 11 at any time.
Forcing press stops:
