Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cutting head for sheet-like products, particularly fabrics for the clothing industry.
  • Machines for cutting flexible sheet-like products with a mechanically actuated cutting head are known.
  • the head supports a cutting blade which is subjected to a reciprocating motion by means of mechanical transmission means which are in turn connected to an electric motor of preset power.
  • Each type of machine has to be provided with an adapted motor having technical characteristics adequate to the physical and qualitative characteristics of the material to be cut, as well as to the thickness and number of layers of the products being processed.
  • the moving mechanical parts furthermore require frequent maintenance in order to prevent the failures and wear to which they are normally subject.
  • a cutting apparatus which comprises all the features mentioned in claim 1.
  • the driving mechanism of this known apparatus comprises eccentric members suitable for transforming the rotary motion of a motor into linear reciprocating motion of the cutting blade and therefore it suffers the typical disadvantages of the conventional driving mechanisms.
  • a punching machine which has an electromagnetic driving mechanism including a solenoid assembly enclosing a fixed core and a movable core captive to a plunger carrying the punch.
  • the structure of the solenoid assembly is such that the movable core is only partially permeated by the electromagnetic field thus resulting in a reduced efficiency.
  • the control means for the driving mechanism is responsive to the movement of the housing with respect to the workpiece and cannot be adjusted at will.
  • the aim of the present invention is to eliminate the disadvantages described above by providing a cutting head which, by virtue of its peculiar characteristics, has considerable flexibility and readiness in use, reduced operating costs, limited power losses and, the greatest reliability and safety in use.
  • a particular object of the invention is to reduce the number of mechanical moving parts to be subjected to adjustment.
  • a further object is to provide a cutting head having component parts that can be obtained easily and can furthermore be rapidly assembled without requiring constructive complications.
  • the cutting head according to the invention is adapted to be associated with an element M of a per se known machine, which can move bidirectionally in a direction which is parallel to the plane of arrangement G of the products to be cut, following a path which is defined by the cutting plane.
  • the head can be removably fixed to the element M by means of an anchoring head 2 which is fixed by means of bolts 3 or of other equivalent elements.
  • the head 1 furthermore comprises an upper fixed body 4 and a lower slider 5 which can move in a direction which is substantially perpendicular to the plane of arrangement G of the products P, along guides 6 which are rigidly associated with the plate 2.
  • a stop element 7 for a cutting blade 8 which protrudes beyond the anchoring plate 2 is provided at the free end of the slider 5.
  • the blade 8 thus follows the movements of the slider 5 so as to interact with the products P to be cut.
  • electromagnetic means which act directly on the blade 8 to cause its controlled oscillation.
  • Said electromagnetic means comprise a fixed element, which is rigidly associated with the body of the head and is generally indicated by A, and a movable element, which is mounted on the slider 5 and is generally indicated by B.
  • the fixed element A is enclosed within the upper body 4, which has a cylindrical symmetry, and comprises a central core 9, which also has a cylindrical shape and is provided with an axial through cavity 10.
  • a substantially torus-like permanent magnet 11 is inserted between the body 4 and the core 9, and its constant internal diameter defines, together with the outer diameter of the core 9, an annular interspace 12.
  • the permanent magnet 11 can be made of highly stable ferromagnetic materials, such as for example those belonging to the series of rare earths or lanthanoids.
  • the movable element B is formed by a support 13 made of insulating material having a substantially cylindrical shape, on which a certain number of turns n of a conductor made of copper or the like is wound so as to define a solenoid 14.
  • the assembly constituted by the solenoid 14 wound on the support 13 has such dimensions as to slide freely and within the annular cavity 12 coaxially thereto.
  • the support 13 is furthermore rigidly fixed to the end of the slider 5 which is opposite to the blade 8 in a position which is approximately coaxial to said blade.
  • the number of turns n, the diameter ⁇ of the conductor and the diameter D of the solenoid 14 can be determined as a function of the required power, by means of calculations which are within the capabilities of any expert in the field.
  • the terminals of the solenoids 14 are connected, by means of conductors 15, 16, to a source of electric current L. If the energization current is alternating, the magnetic field generated by the solenoid 14 varies in a cyclic manner in direction and intensity, causing an oscillation in the slider 5 which in turn causes a reciprocating motion of the blade 8 with a frequency which is equal to that of the current and an extent which is variable according to the frequency and the cutting resistance opposed by the products P.
  • control unit 17 which connects the movable electromagnet 10 to the electric power supply line L.
  • the control unit 17 has, inside it, per se known circuits for adjusting the frequency and the current, as well as possible external indication elements, such as a digital display 18, and actuation means such as buttons or keys 19.
  • the electric parts of the head can of course be provided with the usual safety devices provided for the equipment of machine tools.
  • Elastic means constituted by a spring 20 which is anchored to the slider 5 so as to support it in a position of equilibrium, can be interposed between the fixed part and the movable part of the electromagnetic means.
  • a central rod 21 which is rigidly associated with the slider and can slide within the axial cavity 10 of the core 9, with the optional interposition of a sliding sheath 22 made of antifriction material.
  • Adjustable abutments, made of shock-absorbing material can be provided in the wall of the core which faces the slider, in order to avoid unwanted overrunning strokes.
  • the element M of the cutting machine is moved by per se known motor means, pulling the head 1 along the plane of arrangement G along the contour of the products P to be cut.
  • the control unit is adjusted beforehand so as to select the most appropriate values for the frequency and intensity of the solenoid's energization current.
  • the blade oscillates about its equilibrium position, exploiting the principle of electromotive forces typical of electric motors.
  • the materials employed may be any according to the requirements and to the state of the art.
