Definitions
- the present invention relates to an apparatus for making springs without shank, wound either rightwardly or leftwardly.
- This jaw assembly is provided for holding the start of the spring wire in a fixed condition above a winding bar, and the winding bar is rotatively driven by the mandrel, whereas the spring wire guide unit is driven with a preset speed in parallel to the winding bar axis, from the mandrel toward the end of the winding bar.
- the mandrel rotary movement is caused to stop, the mandrel jaw assembly is opened and, by means of the spring wire guide unit, the spring, which is still connected to the wire pulled from the wire coil, is removed from the winding bar and brought under a cutting unit.
- the cutting operation is performed vertically, from the top to the bottom, on the last turn of the spring, whereas the wire for forming the spring is supplied in a substantially horizontal direction.
- the wire guide unit is automatically returned to its starting position, so as to bring the semi-circumference shaped start portion under the mandrel jaw assembly.
- the aim of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for making springs without starting shank, wound either rightwardly or leftwardly, which permits the wire to be suitably provided with a start shaped or contoured portion, independently from the winding direction of the spring, and without the provision of a second cutting unit or a second spring wire guide element.
- a main object of the present invention is to provide such an apparatus which has a very reduced size, and being furthermore adapted to always operate with a front wire supply and with a single wire guide unit which can be vertically adjusted in order to drive the wire both under and above the winding bar.
- Yet another object of the present invention is to provide such a spring making apparatus which is very reliable and safe in operation.
- Yet another object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for making springs without starting shank, wound either rightwardly or leftwardly, which can be easily made starting from easily commercially available elements and materials and which, moreover, is very competitive from a mere economic standpoint.
- an apparatus for making springs without starting shank, wound either rightwardly or leftwardly said apparatus being adapted to supply the wire to be wound on a mandrel, thereon operates a jaw assembly for holding a starting portion of said spring, characterized in that said apparatus further comprises a cutting unit for cutting an end portion of the wire of the made spring, said cutting unit being arranged on a side of said wire guide element opposite with respect to the spring and being adapted to cut the spring wire so as to leave, at a free end portion thereof, constituting the starting portion of a next spring, a portion having the shape of a circumference quadrant.
- the apparatus for making springs without start shank, wound either rightwardly or leftwardly comprises a wire guide element, indicated generally at the reference number 1, which supplies a spring wire 2 withdrawn from a wire coil not shown in the drawings.
- the spring wire 2 is wound on a mandrel 3, thereon operates a jaw assembly 4 adapted to hold the start end portion of the wire.
- the wire is wound so as to provide the set turn number and the set pitch, which will be determined by the displacement of the wire guide element, in an axial direction, with respect to the mandrel.
- the wire guide element is advantageously arranged in a horizontal plane.
- the wire guide element After the end of the spring 10 winding operation, the wire guide element will drive the made spring 10 to a cutting unit, which is arranged, according to a main feature of the present invention, on a horizontal plane and, more specifically, being arranged on the opposite side of the wire guide element, with respect to the spring 10.
- the wire 2 being cut will be held connected to its start portion, indicated at 2A, which has the shape of a circumference quadrant, and is adapted to form the start winding portion of a next spring which can be made without shank.
- the provision of the spring cutting unit 15 in a horizontal plane allows to make springs, wound either leftwardly or rightwardly, while providing the desired start portion corresponding to a circumference quadrant on the wire 2, which thing could not be obtained by the prior art spring winding apparatus.
- the wire guide element can be vertically adjusted, so as to guide the wire both under and above the winding bar, and depending on the leftwardly or rightwardly direction of the spring being wound.
- the above disclosed construction allows to make a comparatively low cost spring winding apparatus, and an apparatus which has a much smaller size than prior apparatus.
- a spring making apparatus which comprises a horizontal cutting unit allowing to leave a circumference quadrant start wire portion on the spring forming wire, which portion will allow to obtain a perfectly cylindrical spring.
- the provision of a horizontal cutting unit allows the apparatus to always operate with a front wire supply and with a single wire guide element.
