Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a device for bending the rim of a sheet, said device comprising a bending roll in the shape of a cylindrical roll from which a segment is removed, in which segment a rim of a sheet can be pressed which has to be bent, a support for the bending roll by which the bending roll is supported over a part of its circumference, a forming die against which the rim of the sheet to be bent can be pressed by means of the bending roll, means for pressing the bending roll towards the forming die and a framework serving to support the forming die on the one hand and the means for bringing the bending roll towards the forming die and guiding the bending roll on the other hand.
- Such a device is known from US-A-4,002,049. In case of this known device use is made of a press, the forming die being connected to the lower stationary portion of the press, the bending roll being connected to the upper portion. Now forces are exerted during bending the rim of a sheet in a direction transverse to the axis of the bending roll, which forces in one way or another will have to be absorbed by those portions of the press extending in vertical direction. This will give no problems when either a sufficiently heavy press is available so that the transverse force can be absorbed without deformations or the press being executed such that the deformations will be equal over the whole length of the sheet to be bent. Such a press, however, will be relatively expensive and so, generally speaking, will not be bought for this purpose.
- In view of this the object of the invention is to provide a device which is simple of construction and in which the deformations of the framework will be equal over the whole length of a sheet to be bent by which an exact bending of the rim of a sheet can be executed.
- According to the invention this is obtained because the framework is executed substantially U-shaped, the opposite end portions of the legs of the U-shaped framework serving to support the forming die and the means for moving the bending roll towards the forming die respectively, the bending roll being supported by a support block being provided pivotally or slidably in respect of the web of the U-shaped framework such that the force which during the bending of a sheet is exerted to the support block and is directed transverse to the direction of movement of said block, is absorbed by the web of said framework, said framework, said support block and the means for moving said support block towards said forming die extending themselves over the whole length of the rim of the sheet to be bent.
- In this way a very stable construction is obtained in which a deformation, if any, of the U-shaped framework extends itself equally over the total length of the sheet to be bent, so that the rim of the sheet will have exactly the same cross-section over its whole length.
- According to an embodiment the support block will be in the shape of a support arm one end of which is pivotally connected to the web of the framework, the other end being provided with a cavity for supporting the forming die and with a cavity provided in the opposite surface for pivotally receiving the end of at least one lever, the other end of which is pivotally connected to the one end of a second lever, the other end of which is pivotally supported by the leg of the U-shaped framework, such that said two levers together are forming an angle lever system, a driving mechanism acting on at least one of said lever systems.
- In doing so it can be provided that the support arm and the levers of the angle lever system are supported by said framework in such a way that the components of the forces acting upon the end of the support arm by the bending roll on the one hand and by the angle lever system on the other hand, which components are running in a plane transverse to the plane in which the axes of the two cavities in said support arm are positioned, are oppositely directed. This contributes to a favourable dimensioning of the support arm and of the framework.
- According to another embodiment the support block is movable in a direction parallel to the web of the U-shaped framework and normal to the plane of a sheet which has to be bent, said support block being comprised between two opposite parallel running surfaces of said web and of an upwardly protruding extension of the leg of the framework respectively.
- For bringing said support block upwardly for bending a sheet use can be made of at least one set of elongated wedge shaped activating strips which together are forming a block with opposite parallel surfaces which are engaging a surface of the support block and of the lower leg of the U-shaped framework respectively such that by moving said strips lengthwise the surfaces of support block and of the framework leg are pressed away from each other.
- In order to prevent that the support block during its movement for bending a sheet is also moved in a direction parallel to the plane of said sheet, the support block can be guided by rods running normal to the plane of the sheet and being connected to either the support block or the framework and extending into a bore in the other part. In particular the rods will be partly provided with a screwthread for being screwed into the support block, the other end of said rods extending downwardly through a bore in the framework leg, a spring being provided between the end of a rod and said leg to bring the support block downwardly after the bending of a sheet.
- According to a further elaboration of the invention it can be provided that the framework is composed from substantially U-shaped lamellae being provided with holes running transverse to the plane of said lamellae through which holes parallel running rods can be slid for holding said lamellae together.
- Said lamellae can be obtained in a simple way by means of stamping or by another suitable operation and a number of lamellae can be joined to obtain the desired length of the frame work. By this it is obtained that after bending two rims of a sheet also another rim of the sheet can be bent which rim is crossing the already bent rims eventually at right angles because the framework can be adjusted to the distance between the two primary bent rims and so to the length of the rim which still has to be bent.
- According to a preferred embodiment a number of lamellae in particular almost half the total number of lamellae will be connected to a fixed package by means of at least one of the rods and the other lamellae will be movable in respect of said package by means of two aligned screwed rods which are longitudinally movable in respect of each other but are rotatably coupled with each other, said rods extending through screwthread provided in holes in said lamellae, the length of one of said screwed rods being at least equal to the total thickness of all lamellae.
- So when the one screwed rod extends itself through all lamellae the framework is having its maximum length. When the framework has to be made shorter, said screwed rod is screwed out of a number of lamellae, the aligned screwed rod simultaenously being screwed into the lamellae. When now the desired thickness of the package is obtained said screwed rods can be pulled somewhat from each other so that two separate packages of lamellae are obtained which are somewhat spaced from each other. So the thickness of the package of lamellae which has to be used substantially can be each multiple of the thickness of one single lamella.
- Obviously the possibility exists to compose the support block and the other part of the device also from lamellae.
- In this way the length of a device can be adjusted as much as possible to the length which is desired.
- Now the invention is further described by means of embodiments, shown in the drawing, in which:
- Fig. 1 is showing an end view of a device according to the invention as seen in the direction of the bending line;
- Fig. 2 shows a side view of the device of fig. 1;
- Fig. 3 shows a cross-section of a modified embodiment of a device according to the invention, partly according to the line III-III of fig. 4; and
- Fig. 4 shows a cross-section of a detail of the device according to fig. 3.
- The device shown in the figs. 1 and 2 comprises the mainly
U-shaped framework 1 composed fromlamellae 2. Alamella 2 consists of theweb 3 and thelegs leg 4 extends into the formingdie 6 opposite which thebending roll 7 is lying consisting from a cylindrical portion from which asegment 8 is removed. Between the forming die 6 and the bending roll 7 asheet 9 can be brought from which therim 10 can be bent by pressing thebending roll 7 towards the forming die 6. - The
bending roll 7 is supported by the support arm 11, asurface 12 of which is provided with acavity 13, theopposite surface 14 being provided with acavity 15 for pivotally receiving oneend 16 of alever 17, theother end 18 of which is pivotally connected with theend 19 of alever 20, theother end 21 of which is pivotally supported by acavity 22 in thelegs 5 of thelamellae 2. The support arm 11 is pivotally received in acavity 23 in theframework 1. - The
levers medium cylinders 24, e.g. one at each end of the framework. By means of saidcylinders 24 e.g. the pivot between thelevers bending roll 7 will be moved towards the formingdie 6 and therim 10 of thesheet 9 will be bent. - The
lamellae 2 are provided withholes rods holes portions 30 of therods package 31. - From the other free lamellae 2 a desired number can be added to the
package 31. In fig. 2 this is one lamella, the further lamellae together forming onepackage 32. To this end thehole 27 of each lamella is provided withscrewthread 33. The pitch of this screwthread preferably is equal to the thickness of one lamella. A firstscrewed rod 34 is running through thescrewthread 33, the length of which rod is at least equal to the total thickness of all lamellae. Thescrewed rod 35 is extending in line with thescrewed rod 34, therods hexagon 36, connected to one of the screwed rods and extending in a fitting cavity in the other screwed rod. So thescrewed rods hexagon 36 but will together being rotated as by means of a crank connected to thescrewed rod 35. - To move the
screwed rods nut 38 is provided on thescrewed rod 35, said nut being provided with sidewards extendingpins 39. Saidpins 39 cooperate with alever 40 in a not further shown way, oneend 41 of saidlever 40 being pivotally supported by means of therod 28. - In the position shown in fig. 2 the
screwed rod 34 extends itself through thelamellae package 31, lying between the two thickenedportions 30 of therods further lamella 2, thescrewed rod 35 extending itself through the other lamellae to form thepackage 32. By means of thelever 40 thepackages - To protect the surface of the
sheet 9 against damaging by the bending roll 7 a not shown protecting sheet can be applied between thebending roll 7 and thesheet 9 which protecting sheet only needs to have a small thickness. - In case of the embodiment of the device according to the invention shown in the figs. 3 and 4, said device again comprises a mainly U-shaped
framework 42 comprising theweb 43, theupper leg 44 and thelower leg 45. Theupper leg 44 extends in the formingdie 46, thelower leg 45 being provided with an upwardly extendingportion 47. Asupport block 48 is provided with acavity 49 in which thebending roll 50 is received. - The
surface 51 of thesupport block 48 engages theweb 43 of theframework 42. Abearing sheet 52 can be provided between thesurface 51 and theweb 43. - The
support block 48 together with thebending roll 50 are shown in the position after bending asheet 53 so in the uppermost position. - The vertical movement of the
support block 48 is obtained by using elongated wedgeshaped strips 54 formingblocks 55 with oppositeparallel surfaces 56, one of which is engaging asurface 57 of thesupport block 48 and the other is engaging asurface 58 of thelower leg 45 of theframework 42. Between thestrips 54rolls 59 can be provided to decrease the frictional forces when moving thestrips 54 in respect of each other. Either thelower strips 54 can be stationary in respect of theframework 42 or theupper strips 54 can be stationary in respect of thesupport block 48. Between the other engaging surfaces also rolls can be provided for decreasing the friction between said surfaces when moving therelated strips 54. - When a
sheet 53 has to be bent thesupport block 48 will be in a lower position than indicated in fig. 3, in which position thebending roll 50 can be in the position as shown in fig. 1. After bringing thesheet 53 between the bendingroll 50 and the formingdie 46, astrip 54 e.g. theupper strip 54 is moved in the direction of the arrow R in fig. 4, so that theupper strips 54 will reach the position as shown in this figure. The movement of thestrip 54 e.g. can take place by means of a pressurized medium cylinder, which is not further shown. During the movement of thestrip 54 the bendingroll 50 is bending the rim of thesheet 53 till the position of the bendingroll 50, shown in fig. 3, is reached. - Then the
strips 54 are moved in the direction opposite to that of the arrow R. To bring thesupport block 48 downward, said block can be connected tobolts 60 extending through anopening 61 in thelower leg 45 of theframework 42. Aspring 62 can be provided around thebolt 60, engaging thehead 63 of thebolt 60 on the one hand and thelower leg 45 on the other hand. Thebolts 60 also can serve to prevent moving of thesupport block 48 in the direction of movement of the upper strips 48. This object also can be achieved by providing the framework with end-strips. - Just as in case of the embodiment according to fig. 1, between the bending
roll 50 and the sheet 53 a protecting sheet can be provided to prevent damage of thesheet 53. Also between other engaging surfaces being moved in respect of each other, bearing sheets or rollers can be provided to decrease frictional forces and wear. - Obviously only some possible embodiments of the device according to the invention are shown in the drawing and are described above. Many modifications can be provided without leaving the inventive concept.
