Definitions
- the present invention relates to an all-purpose cutting device, which has been specifically designed for coil or helical spring winding machines.
- the linear type of cutting devices usually comprise a slide on which is assembled a movable knife element, operating against a fixed central knife element. During the cutting operation, the wire being processed is caused to stop.
- the changing feeding speed of the wire material can generate further problems.
- the circular rotary cutting devices comprise a cutting knife element which is mounted on a supporting member, in turn mounted on two parallel rotary cams, thereby jointly forming a mechanism which can be considered analogous to an articulated parallelogram.
- the rotary or turning speed of the two cams is equal to the wire material feeding speed.
- the tension in the pre-tempered wire material will cause, during the winding up operation of said wire material, a breaking thereof without any flash, at the notch location.
- the aim of the present invention is to overcome the above mentioned drawbacks, by providing an all-purpose cutting device, specifically designed for coil spring winding machines, which, depending on requirements, is suitable to perform a cutting operation by driving the cutting tool according to a drop-like path or according to a rectilinear path.
- a main object of the present invention is to provide such a cutting device which is very simple construction-wise and can be made at a competitive cost.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide such a cutting device which is very reliable and safe in operation.
- Yet another object of the present invention is to provide such a cutting device which, owing to its capability of performing a cutting operation by the cutting tool being driven on a closed path, or on a rectilinear path, will allow to meet all of the use requirements.
- an all-purpose cutting device specifically designed for coil spring winding machines, characterized in that said device comprises a framework swingably supporting, about a swinging axis, a guide element, said guide element slidably bearing a cutting tool holding slide, which can be driven along a driving direction which is substantially transversal of said swinging axis, being moreover provided a first cam element affecting said slide for reciprocating said slide along the driving direction as well as second cam element, affecting said guide element, for causing said guide element to swing about the swinging axis thereof, said second cam element being suitable to be actuated simultaneously with said first cam element in order to cause said cutting tool to be driven along a drop path or being adapted to be deactuated in order to cause said cutting tool to be driven exclusively by said first cam element, according to a rectilinear path.
- the cutting device which has been generally indicated by the reference number 1, comprises a framework or casing 2 swingably supporting, about a swinging axis 3a, a guide element 4 which. in turn, slidably supports a slide element 5 bearing a cutting tool 6.
- the swinging axis 3a of the guide element 4 is defined by a pin 3 which is coupled to said framework 2 and rotatably supports, about the axis 3a thereof, the guide element 4.
- a sliding recess 7 is provided, which extends substantially perpendicular to the axis 3a of the pin 3 and inside of which is slidably engaged the slide element 5.
- the cutting device comprises moreover a first cam element 8 and a second cam element 9, respectively affecting the slide 5 in order to cause the latter to be reciprocated along the driving direction 10, which is substantially perpendicular to the axis 3a, and in order to cause said guide element 4 to swing about said swinging axis 3a.
- the first cam element 8 is constituted by a crank 11 connected to the end portion of a shaft 12, which has its axis 12a extending parallel to the swinging axis 3a.
- the shaft 12 is rotatably supported about the axis 12a thereof, for example through bearings 13, by said frame 2.
- the end portion of the shaft 12 opposite to the crank 11 supporting end portion is coupled to a joint 14 connecting the shaft 12 to the outlet or output shaft 15a of a motor reducing unit 15, which can be driven so as to cause the shaft 12 and accordingly the crank 11 to turn.
- a gear wheel 16 meshing with a gear wheel 17 keyed on an idle shaft 18, also supported by said framework 2, by means of which the gear wheel 16 is coupled to a gear wheel 19 keyed on a further shaft 20.
- the second cam element 9 comprises a cam proper 21 and related pad 22, engaging in a seat 23 formed in the guide element 4. As shown, the cam element 21 is coupled to one end portion of the shaft 20 which is also rotatably supported by said framework 2, so as to turn about the rotary axis of said shaft 20.
- the idle shaft 18 and shaft 20 are arranged with their axes parallel to the swinging axis 3a of the pivot pin 3.
- first cam element 8 and second cam element 9 are spaced from one another on the same side with respect to the axis 9, i.e. the cam element causing the guide element 4 to swing about the swinging axis 3a is arranged between the first cam element 8 and the swinging axis 3a.
- the crank 11 is coupled to the slide 5 through a connecting rod 25.
- the idle shaft 18 can be driven, in a per-se known manner, in order to either actuate or deactuate the coupling of the shaft 12 to the shaft 20, or to actuate or deactuate the coupling of the first cam element 8 to the second cam element 9.
- the rotary movement of the shaft 12 can be controlled by a sensor, for example an optical type of sensor, or an inductive or capacitive type of sensor 26 laterally facing the shaft 12 or the shaft 15a, or the joint 14, as is clearly shown.
- a sensor for example an optical type of sensor, or an inductive or capacitive type of sensor 26 laterally facing the shaft 12 or the shaft 15a, or the joint 14, as is clearly shown.
- the cutting device according to the present invention operates as follows.
- the shaft 12 and shaft 20 are simultaneously driven, i.e. the idle shaft 18 is so driven as to perform, by the gear wheel 17, the coupling of the gear wheel 16 to the gear wheel 19.
- the cutting tool 6 must be merely actuated or driven on a rectilinear path, then the coupling of the gear wheels 16 and 19 is disengaged, so as to prevent the driving to the shaft 12 from being transmitted to the shaft 20 and hence to the cam 21.
- the slide 5 will be merely driven with a reciprocating movement along the driving direction 10.
- an all-purpose cutting device which is very simple construction-wise, while providing a very high operating reliability and the capability of being used both for performing a rectilinear type of cut and for performing a drop-like type of cut.
- the used materials, as well as the contingent size can be any, depending on requirements.
