Definitions

  • the invention relates to a processing machine, in particular an automatic punching and bending machine, comprising a machine frame, a plurality of processing units attached to the machine frame or a plurality of attachment points for such processing units and a drive means common to the plurality of processing units or a part thereof for driving at least one moving part of the processing units.
  • the processing units are arranged on the front of a processing plate.
  • On the back of the processing plate is one Worm shaft arranged parallel to the processing plate.
  • the processing units on the front are distributed over the length of the worm shaft. Bores are provided in the processing plate, through which drive shafts of the individual processing units are inserted, so that worm gears of these drive shafts come into engagement with the worm shaft.
  • a certain disadvantage of the known processing machine is that the location of the processing units in the longitudinal direction of the worm shaft has largely been determined by the drilling of the holes in the processing plate, and that within the scope of this definition a further adjustment of the location of the processing units to the location of a specific processing location is restricted or possible only with considerable effort.
  • the prior art also includes a processing machine in which a toothed belt is guided over pulleys on the back of a processing plate.
  • the processing units are driven through holes in the processing plate by means of drive shafts which engage the toothed belt via gear wheels.
  • This known processing machine obviously has the same disadvantage as the above-mentioned processing machine according to DE-PS 32 05 493, but additionally also the disadvantage that inevitable strains can occur in the toothed belt as a result of workloads, which lead to an uncontrollable phase shift of the run of individuals Lead processing units.
  • the invention has for its object to design a processing machine of the type mentioned in such a way that the location of the processing units is largely avoided is and elastic deformations of the drive means are also largely avoided under load.
  • the drive means is formed by a drive rod which is guided essentially linearly on the machine frame and oscillates back and forth in the guide direction, and that either a plurality of control cams or attachment points for control cam elements are attached to the drive rod, which can be brought into engagement with cam followers for driving the moving parts of machining units, or that a plurality of cam followers or fastening points for cam followers are attached to the drive rod, which can be brought into engagement with the cam elements assigned to the moving parts of machining units.
  • the problem of mounting a drive shaft connecting the drive units to the drive means is eliminated.
  • the drive rod can be guided over its entire length or for most of its length in the machine frame, so that bending forces cannot exert any deformation on the drive rod.
  • a longitudinal deformation of the drive rod under tensile and compressive forces can easily be avoided by appropriate cross-sectional dimensioning of the drive rod.
  • It is advisable to coordinate the processing units and the drive of the drive rod so that the highest loads on the drive rod preferably occur when the drive rod is pulled by the upstream drive.
  • the risk of deformation of the drive rod is lower than in overrun, so that lower bearing friction in the linear guide of the drive rod can be expected.
  • the risk of buckling is avoided in train operation, which in turn could give rise to increased friction in the guide.
  • the drive rod and the processing units can be readily possible to arrange the drive rod and the processing units on one and the same side of a processing plate, because in contrast to a worm shaft or a toothed belt, the drive rod takes up little space and in particular the guide means for the drive rod take up little space.
  • the drive rod can, for example, preferably be largely sunk in a guide groove of a processing plate.
  • the drive rod and the drive unit are located on one and the same side of a processing plate, there is no need to provide the processing plate with bores for carrying out the drive power from the drive rod to the processing units, and thus the rigid positioning caused by such bores is also eliminated the processing units.
  • the machining units can be positioned by fastening grooves for the machining units on the respective machining plate and / or by a narrow field of positioning means, for example positioning bores or toothing, which are suitable for absorbing the rod forces.
  • a narrow field of positioning means for example positioning bores or toothing, which are suitable for absorbing the rod forces.
  • An inclination of the processing units should of course not be excluded in the solution according to the invention.
  • control cams can be formed integrally with the drive rod. However, it is preferably provided that the control cam elements or cam followers are continuously or finely adjustable and attachable to the respective drive rod, and that the processing units on the machine frame along and, if appropriate, transversely to the respective drive rod are finely adjustable or continuously adjustable and lockable.
  • the oscillation frequency and / or the oscillation stroke and / or the oscillation profile of the drive rod can be changeable in order to be able to perform a wide variety of machining tasks. This also applies in particular if there are several drive rods, in which case corresponding changes are possible for each of these drive rods.
  • the drive rod is driven by an eccentric drive with possibly variable eccentricity and / or variable speed.
  • the drive rod can be driven by a cam drive, the curve shapes being variable.
  • the curve shapes of a cam drive driving the drive rod and certain curve shapes of the attached to or on the drive rod Control cam elements attached to the respective processing unit can be used to gain interesting movement sequences of the processing unit that would not be readily available at only one point if the curve was variable.
  • such superimposition can be used to obtain forms of motion on the processing unit that cannot be achieved with a single conventional si nuisanced curve, but can be obtained by superimposing two si nuisanced curves.
  • the drive rod is driven by a spindle drive with a reversing drive motor.
  • the reversing drive motor can be program-controlled with regard to its respective setting position and / or setting speed, so that similar effects can be achieved as by varying a drive curve of a cam drive driving the drive rod.
  • the drive rod can also be driven via a transmission gear with a variable transmission ratio, in particular via a lever gear with a variable transmission ratio.
  • processing units is to be understood in the broadest sense and also includes, for example, assemblies on an assembly machine or on a packaging machine.
  • the drive of additional devices of a processing machine can be derived from a drive rod, for. B. the drive of material feeders and / or workpiece transport devices.
  • the invention can be implemented with a wide variety of forms of machine frames. So it is possible, for example, that two mutually substantially parallel drive rods are arranged on a main working plane of the machine frame, that a workpiece machining zone is provided between these drive rods, and that each drive rod is assigned machining units, the moving parts of which are approximately in the direction of the machining zone and are moving back.
  • workpieces can, for example, be processed first on a first processing level, then transported through the workpiece passage to the second processing level and then processed on the second processing level, with the term "processing" also being used here in the broad sense defined above understand is.
  • transverse transport means are provided in the passage in order to transfer workpieces from one processing level to the other, these transport means preferably being driven by a drive rod which oscillates in their longitudinal direction.
  • Another possibility for carrying out different machining operations is that several, in particular, in front of one machining plane in the direction perpendicular to the machining plane two parallel drive rods are arranged side by side. With such a design, successive processing units can be brought close to one another and u. U. Arrange one above the other or with an overlap, since the longitudinal extent of the control curves is no longer decisive for the distance between adjacent processing units. In this way, hold-down devices and processing tools on wire and strip bending machines, for example, can be accommodated in a confined space without difficulty.
  • the use of two mutually parallel, individually driven drive rods offers the advantage that they have different strokes and different oscillation frequencies and can carry out different movements.
  • a drive rod is arranged in front of a processing plane of the machine frame, which has two longitudinal zones lying next to one another perpendicular to the processing plane for the formation of control cams or attachment of control curve elements, but then the There is no possibility of different movements of the individual longitudinal zones.
  • the drive rod or rods can advantageously be arranged on the processing units attached to a processing plane on a carrier part of the machine frame which projects forward over the processing plane.
  • the moving part of a processing unit is formed by a carriage which is guided linearly on a carriage guide of the processing unit and in particular approximately perpendicular to the longitudinal extension of the drive rod, and that this carriage is in drive connection with one on the carriage guide or on the Machine frame is pivotally mounted swivel lever, which receives a swivel movement from a drive rod and transmits it to the slide.
  • lateral forces on the slide guide are largely avoided.
  • This pivot lever should extend essentially transversely to the direction of movement of the slide and parallel to the direction of movement of the drive rod. Particularly favorable load conditions result when an engagement point between the pivot lever and the drive rod and an engagement point between the pivot lever and the slide are approximately in alignment with one another with an escape direction essentially parallel to the direction of movement of the slide.
  • Simple machining processes can often also be carried out using straight-line control curves. This applies in particular when there is the possibility of changing the angle of the straight control cams with respect to the direction of oscillation of the drive rod. It is therefore further proposed that the control cam element has a rectilinear control cam and that the angle setting of this control cam can be changed and ascertained relative to the direction of oscillation of the drive rod.
  • the processing machine according to the invention is particularly suitable or at least easily made suitable, namely in that the drive rod with the control cams or control cam elements attached to it as a whole is operationally interchangeable, that position recording means are provided for certain, once adjusted Positions of the processing units to be recorded, and that position display means are provided on the processing machine which allow a processing unit removed from a once adjusted position to be attached to the processing machine again at a later point in time using the position recording.
  • a drive rod unit be driven more slowly in a direction of movement that corresponds to the working stroke of associated machining units than in a direction of movement, which corresponds to the return stroke of the associated processing units.
  • a drive rod unit consist of a plurality of substantially aligned drive rod sections that are connected in the longitudinal direction of the drive rod units for common movement. This also opens up the possibility of being able to impart different transverse movements transverse to the longitudinal extension of the drive rod unit to individual sections of the drive rod unit.
  • a plurality of drive rod units be arranged in at least one machining plane along a polygon which surrounds a machining zone.
  • processing units and the associated drive rod units are arranged in a horizontal processing plane.
  • a transport means be provided on the machine frame in order to transport the workpieces to be processed step by step through different processing stations.

  • the drive rods 18 are each driven by an oscillating drive 20 and linearly guided in a respective guide groove 22 of the processing plate 12.
  • a control cam 24 is attached to the respective drive rod 18, which acts on the respective guide carriage 14c and shifts it in each case towards the processing zone 16, while the guide carriages are reset by a return spring 14e.
  • the control cams 24 are attached to control cam elements 26, which are adjustable and lockable along the drive rods 18.
  • the base bodies 14a of the machining units 14 can be fixed in T-slots 27 and in fields of mounting bores 28 by means of mounting pins, wherein positioning pins can also be inserted into the mounting bores 28, which also engage in bores of the base bodies 14a. It is also conceivable to position the base body 14a on the processing plate 12 by interlocking toothings and by additional fastening means which ensure the mutual engagement of the toothings.
  • Positioning scales 30 are attached to the front plate, which allow the base bodies 14a to be readjusted into a list-based or computer-recorded position after they have been removed from the processing plate 12, without the need for renewed empirical coordination.
  • the control cam elements 26 can also be brought into reproducible positions on the respective drive rods by means of positioning scales 32. In addition, there is the possibility of removing and reinserting the drive rods together with the control cam elements 26 as complete structural units. It is thus possible to quickly convert the machine for various machining tasks by, on the one hand, exchanging the drive rods 18 with control cam elements 26 attached to them as a whole and, on the other hand, the machining units 14 with the help of the positioning scales 30 into the positions corresponding to the respective machining task. In this case, the tools 14d can also remain on the guide slide 14c if there are sufficient machining units available.

  • the wire or strip material is drawn in by a drawing-in device 38 with a moving clamping point 38a and a stationary clamping point 38b.
  • the stationary clamping point 38b is controlled by a control curve 24a of the drive rod 18. It is also conceivable to control the moving clamping point 38a from one of the drive rods 18.
  • a carriage 14c can also be guided directly on the processing plate, for example by strips 14x which are screwed onto the working plate 12 or are produced integrally with the working plate.
  • a tool 14d is attached to the slide 14c. The tool 14d can also be guided directly in the strips 14x.
  • the cam element 26 is here, as shown in FIG. 1a, fastened to the drive rod 18, specifically clamped in a groove 18x by screws 18y. Fine toothing 18z positions the cam element 26 in the longitudinal direction of the drive rod 18 and transmits the longitudinal forces.
  • the screws 18y pass through elongated holes in the cam elements 26, the length of which corresponds at least to the tooth pitch.

  • One recognizes the base body 14a with the slide guide 14b, in which the guide slide 14c is guided.
  • the guide carriage 14c is biased in the direction of the drive rod 18 by a spring, in particular a helical tension spring or a helical compression spring 14e.
  • a pivot lever 14f is pivotably mounted on the base body 14a about a pivot pin 14g.
  • This pivot lever 14g carries a cam follower roller 14h, which engages with a cam 24 of the cam element 26.
  • a sliding shoe 14i is guided on the pivot lever 14f.
  • This slide shoe 14i is pivotally connected to a hinge pin 14k by a connecting pin 141.
  • the hinge pin 14k engages with an external thread 14m adjustable in a threaded bore of a projection 14n of the guide carriage 14 c and is secured by locking nuts 14o.

  • the drive rod 18 is most heavily loaded when it moves to the left and thereby pushes the guide carriage 14c downward, so that the tool attached to the guide carriage 14c performs a punching or bending operation. Accordingly, if possible, the rod 18 in FIG. 2 is operated to the left as a pull rod, so that no bending forces are introduced into the drive rod 18 which could lead to a load on the linear guide 22 (FIG. 1). If several processing units are connected to a drive rod, an attempt will be made to position the control cams so that the greatest machining forces occur in the majority of processing units when the drive rod 18 is pulled by its drive (see 20 in FIG. 1). This will not be possible in all cases. Even if compressive forces occur in the drive rods, there is no danger of delay because the drive rods 18 are guided in the linear guides 22 over a substantial part of their length.

  • the arrow P ′′ represents the working movement of the processing unit 1014c 19.
  • the arrow P ''' represents the working movement of the processing unit 1014a from FIG. 19, whereby, however, a change has been made compared to FIG. 19 in that the processing unit 1014a has been moved inside the conveyor belt loop 1045 so that the tool of the processing unit 1014a approaches the workpiece 1049 through openings in the conveyor belt.
  • FIG. 21 shows a modification compared to FIG. 1.
  • the drive rod 1118 is not guided in a guide groove here, but is guided by a plurality of guide links 1163 which are articulated with their upper ends to the machine frame 1110 and are articulated with their lower ends to the drive rod 1118.
  • the drive rod 1118 is guided back and forth in the direction of the double arrow 1165 by drive means, as are shown, for example, in FIGS. 7-10.
  • the control cam elements 1126 with the control cams 1124 are attached to the drive rod 1118, approximately in the manner described in FIG. 13 or 14.
  • the control cams 1124 act on the machining units 1114, which are fastened in grooves 1127 and experience a tool movement that goes up and down in the direction of the arrow 1167.
  • the longitudinal movement 1165 of the drive rod 1118 overlaps a slight vertical movement 1169.
  • This vertical movement can be the design of the control curves 1124 are taken into account in such a way that the processing units 1114 carry out the correct movement again.
  • the drive of the drive rod 1118 can be designed by a drive device, as shown in FIGS. 8, 8a, 9 or 10, in such a way that the movement in the direction of the arrow 1165a takes place with a greater movement speed of the rod 1118 than the movement in the direction of the arrow 1165b.
  • a larger proportion of the time is then available for the working movement of the processing unit 1114 within the total time available for the return stroke of the processing unit 1114. This can be advantageous because the necessary working stroke of the processing unit is then slower.
  • the slower movement of the drive rod 1118a in the direction of the arrow 1165b is particularly advantageous when very steep flank regions occur at the control cam 1124, for example at 1124a.
  • FIG. 22 shows a further modification to FIG. 1.
  • a guide rail 1271 is guided by link 1263, so that there is again a horizontal movement 1265 and a small vertical movement 1269 of the guide rail 1271 when the guide rail 1271 is driven by a cam plate 1284 according to FIG. 8.
  • a drive rod 1218 is also in the guide rail 1271
  • Control cam elements 1226 driven by a cam drive 1284 '.
  • the control cam elements 1226 act with their control cams 1224 on the processing unit 1214 in the manner already described.
  • the basic movement of the drive rod 1218 is derived from the cam drive 1284 '.
  • the cam drive 1284 can initiate the upward movement of the guide rail 1271 in the direction of the arrow 1269 when the drive rod 1218 has reached its end position in which the processing unit 1214 has finished its downward working movement. At this moment, the guide rail 1271 is then lifted upwards, so that the machining units, without losing their engagement with the control cams 1224, immediately return upwards from their lowest working position. If the drive rod 1218 is then retracted again in the direction of the arrow 1265 into a position in which the downward movement of the processing units 1214 can begin again, the guide rail 1271 is lowered again by the cam disk drive 1284 by means of the link 1263. This mode of operation can be particularly advantageous if the working stroke of the drive rod 1218 is faster than the return stroke.
  • FIG. 22 can also be realized by a modification according to FIG. 23.
  • the guide rail 1371 is immovable in the horizontal direction and adjustable in the vertical direction by means of pneumatic or hydraulic cylinders 1373.
  • the up and down movement 1369 is thus effected by the cylinders 1373.
  • the embodiment according to FIG. 23 corresponds to that according to FIG. 22, analog parts being designated with the same reference numerals, each increased by the number 100.
  • the drive rod 1418 can be composed of a plurality of drive rod sections 1418a, 1418b, 1418c and 1418d.
  • the drive rod sections 1418a and 1418d are guided by a pair of links 1463a, 1463b, 1463c and 1463d, respectively.
  • the individual sections 1418a-1418d are rigidly connected to one another in the direction of arrow 1465 by transmission elements 1477ab, 1477bc and 1477cd.
  • the transmission elements permit a relative movement of the drive rod sections 1418a-1418d in the direction of the arrow 1469.
  • the drive rod sections 1418a-1418d perform different strokes in the direction of the arrow 1469 during a movement cycle of the cam disk drive 1484 ′.
  • a control cam element 1426b with a control cam 1424b of a straight and horizontal course is attached to the drive rod section 1418b.
  • the working movement of the associated processing unit can be brought about solely by the vertical movement 1469 of the drive rod section 1418b, the stroke of which is determined by the length of the guide links 1463b.
  • a control curve element 1426a with a conventional control curve 1424a is attached to the drive rod section 1418a, the control curve 1424a being selected such that its shape, taking into account the guide links 1463a, results in the desired course of motion of the associated processing unit (not shown).
  • a control cam 1424c is attached to the drive rod section 1418c, the inclination of which can be varied with respect to the longitudinal direction of the drive rod section 1418c according to arrow 1479c. In this case leaves the respectively desired course of movement of the associated processing unit (not shown) is set by the choice of the angle of inclination of the control curve 1424c, taking into account the length of the guide links 1463c.
  • the subdivision of the drive rod into individual sections can also be advantageous in the embodiment according to FIG. 1, namely when the drive rod becomes very long overall and is therefore difficult to machine.
  • the individual drive rod sections can also be connected to one another in the embodiment according to FIG. 1 by transmission elements corresponding to the transmission elements 1477ab, 1477bc and 1477cd.
