Definitions

  • This invention concerns a bending method with a mobile bending assembly and the relative shaping machine as set forth in the respective main claims.
  • the invention is employed preferentially, but not exclusively, to shape round pieces used for reinforcement purposes in the building trade, but it may be employed equally well to bend pipes, full-section or hollow bars or other shapes in general.
  • round piece' shall include all other sections which can be used to make bars and/or brackets for reinforcement purposes.
  • 'Round piece' shall also be taken to include bundles of superimposed round pieces shaped at the same time.
  • the state of the art includes bending/shaping machines used to make rods and/or brackets for reinforcement purposes in the building trade. These machines are equipped with bending assemblies consisting substantially of a rotary disk including a central contrasting pin and a peripheral contrasting pin.
  • the round piece which is to be bent is inserted between the two pins and is shaped by rotating the disk with the desired angle and in the desired direction according to the geometry of the shape to be obtained.
  • Bending/shaping machines known to the state of the art may have the work plane inclined to the horizontal, which improves the functioning of the machine and the operational characteristics, particularly during the discharge of the finished products.
  • Bending/shaping machines which have two bending stations are often preferred to those which have only one bending station due to their greater speed; on the other hand, however, machines with two bending stations are much more costly.
  • the shaping of the round piece is achieved by making the round piece advance and/or retreat with respect to the stationary bender(s), according to the planned design of the shaped product; as the round piece is gradually moved, it is sequentially shaped by the bending assembly along a segment of a desired length.
  • DE-A-39 19 607 describes a bending method which uses a bending trolley movable along the bar which is to be bent; the bars are bent by displacing the bending trolley with respect to the attachment device which is preset to clamp the bars during bending.
  • EP-A-715 907 describes a device including a bending station attached to the machine and a bending station which is movable lengthwise to the machine; each of the two bending stations includes its own bending organ and its own clamping organ.
  • a first end of the bar is inserted into the stationary bending station and the second end of the bar is inserted into the movable bending station.
  • the movable bending station is first used to position the first end of the bar lengthwise so that it can be bent by the stationary bending station, then it is used to bend the second end of the bar and then to move the bar lengthwise with respect to the stationary bending station in order to make the bends in the correct positions.
  • This device needs two different bending stations with the relative drive and movement organs.
  • DE 94 06 880 also describes a bending machine with two bending stations which are movable lengthwise; it includes a clamping device, which is also movable lengthwise, at an intermediate position between the two stations.
  • the position of the clamping device with respect to the bending stations is regulated by a command device during the bending cycle.
  • the present applicant has designed and embodied this invention in order to achieve a versatile bending method for simple and functional bending machines with a bending assembly and to obtain further advantages.
  • the purpose of the invention is to obtain a method to bend round pieces for reinforcement purposes, pipes, full-section or hollow bars or other shapes in general, which will be reliable, versatile and functional regardless of the diameter of the round piece to be shaped and/or the type of bend to be performed.
  • a further purpose of the invention is to provide a shaping machine characterised by high productivity and reliability.
  • the shaping machine according to the invention includes a bending assembly upstream of which there is at least an assembly to feed the round piece and an assembly to shear to size.
  • the bending assembly can be moved lengthwise with respect to the round piece to be shaped.
  • the bending assembly can have at least a first position, wherein bending is started, at least a second position, wherein bending is finished, and a plurality of intermediate positions between the said first and second positions coherent with the position of the bends to be made.
  • the bending assembly may be of any type whatsoever, for example including a rotary bending disk supporting at least a bending pin and one or more contrasting pins.
  • the bending assembly cooperates with retaining means which temporally clamp and guide the round piece which is to be shaped, when the bending assembly moves lengthwise with respect to the round piece to position itself according to the bends which are to be made.
  • the retaining means comprise two retaining assemblies of which at least one is solid with the bending assembly.
  • the bending assembly moves within a sliding seating and its journey is determined by the length thereof.
  • the sliding seating cooperates with closing means whose function is to at least partially close the sliding seating when the bending assembly is in the start-of-bending position in close proximity with the feeding assembly and the shearing assembly.
  • the round piece to be shaped is fed to the bending assembly which performs sequentially the desired shaping of the leading end.
  • the round piece is made to advance for a desired segment then sheared to size by the shearing assembly and kept stationary in this advanced position by the retaining means.
  • the relative closing means are taken to the closed position, defining a work plane which facilitates the advance of the round piece and prevents it stopping accidentally or jamming in the sliding seating.
  • the closing means of the sliding seating are taken to a position of non-contact so as to allow the lengthwise movement of the bending assembly in the sliding seating with respect to the round piece, which is held stationary.
  • the bending assembly gradually advances, it stops in the pre-determined positions in order to perform the desired shaping on the round piece sequentially, starting from the trailing end and moving towards the leading end of the round piece which has already been shaped.
  • a retaining assembly solid with the bending assembly clamps the round piece every time the bending assembly makes a bend.
  • the shaped round piece is discharged by the machine, the bending assembly is returned to its start-of-bending position and the closing means returned to the closed position of the sliding seating; it is thus possible to begin a new bending cycle.
  • the bending assembly or part thereof, can be moved at a right angle to the plane of the machine so that it can be temporarily positioned in such a way that both left-hand and right-hand bends can be accomplished.
  • the shaping machine 10 according to the invention for round pieces 16 for reinforcement purposes shown in Fig. 1 is of the type which has an inclined work plane 11 cooperating with a bending assembly 12.
  • the bending assembly 12 consists of a rotary disk 13 on the periphery of which a bending pin 18 is solidly associated.
  • a central contrasting pin 19 cooperates with the rotary disk 13 and the bending pin 18.
  • a drawing assembly 14 Upstream of the bending assembly 12 there is a drawing assembly 14, in this case of the pinch roll type, which also has the function of partially straightening the round piece 16 fed, for example, from a reel.
  • a shearing assembly 15 in this case, a shears.
  • the first retaining assembly 17a is solid with the bending assembly 12 and moves therewith, whereas the second retaining assembly 17b is solid with the work plane 11 and therefore stationary with respect to the bending assembly 12.
  • Both the retaining assemblies 17a, 17b may be temporally excluded with respect to the work plane 11, for example withdrawing vertically to allow the round piece 16 to advance even when its leading ends are shaped.
  • the bending assembly 12 can be moved lengthwise to the round piece 16 which is to be shaped.
  • the bending assembly 12 can also be moved transversely with respect to the round piece 16 which is to be shaped; this allows the bending assembly 12 to be pre-arranged to perform both left-hand and right-hand bends.
  • the bending assembly 12 is associated with a trolley 23 suitable to slide along mating guides 24.
  • the sliding seating 20 cooperates with a cover element 21 which is arranged in a closed position when the bending assembly 12 is in the start-of-bending position 12a.
  • the bending assembly 12 is at the beginning of the sliding seating 20 near the shearing assembly 15 and the drawing assembly 14.
  • the cover element 21 can assume a closed position 21a which defines a sliding plane on which the round piece 16 can advance without any danger of stopping or jamming against the sliding seating 20.
  • the cover element 21 on the contrary assumes a position of non-contact 21b, shown as a line of dashes, so as to free the sliding seating 20 and allow the bending assembly 12 to be displaced therein.
  • the cover element 21 travels from the closed position 21a to the position of non-contact 21b and vice versa oscillating around a pin element 25.
  • the cover element 21 is made on a trolley 123 which can be moved perpendicularly to the direction of feed of the round piece 16 and is suitable to travel to a position of non-contact (shown by a line of dashes in Fig. 5) as the trolley 23 advances, the position being contained inside the machine 10.
  • the guide element 22 can be retracted below the work plane 11; according to another variant, the guide element 22 can be moved at least transversely with respect to the work plane 11.
  • the cover element 21 and the guide element 22 cooperate at the upper part with a movable limiting element, for example shaped like a plate, which makes it possible to keep the bends of the round piece 16 resting on the cover element 21, or more generally on the work plane 11, thus preventing the round piece 16 from twisting as it advances towards the second retaining assembly 17b.
  • a movable limiting element for example shaped like a plate
  • Figs. 3a-3f show in diagram form some steps in the bending cycle according to the invention.
  • the shaping machine 10 has the bending assembly 12 in the start-of-bending position 12a and the segment of the sliding seating 20 located downstream of the bending assembly 12 is closed by the cover element 21 arranged in the closed position 21a.
  • the round piece 16 is made to advance so that the bending assembly 12 can perform the desired shaping of the leading end sequentially.
  • the bending assembly 12 While the leading end is being shaped, the bending assembly 12 is held stationary in the start-of-bending position 12a.
  • the round piece 16 is first fed forwards by a desired segment, then stopped and held in position both by the first 17a and also by the second 17b retaining assembly and then sheared to size by the shearing assembly 15 (Fig. 3c).
  • the second retaining assembly 17b is stationary; according to a variant it can be moved at least lengthwise with respect to the work plane 11 depending on the length of the segment of the round piece 16 which is to be shaped.
  • the retaining assembly 17b consists of a gripper which is anchored stationary to the work plane 11 and which acts on the round piece 16 from above.
  • both the first 17a and the second 17b retaining assemblies are of the type which can be retracted and temporally excluded; this makes it possible to take them to a position of non-contact with the bends of the leading ends of the round piece 16 as the latter advances on the work plane 11.
  • the bending assembly 12 moves inside the sliding seating 20, and gradually stops in the necessary positions so as to progressively carry out the intermediate bends on the round piece 16.
  • the first bend is made with the bending assembly 12 in the start-of-bending position 12a (Fig. 3d)
  • the second bend is made with the bending assembly 12 in the intermediate position 12b arranged in the first half of the sliding seating 20 (Fig. 3e)
  • the last bend is made with the bending assembly 12 in the end-of-bending position 12c arranged in the second half of the sliding seating 20 (Fig. 3f).
  • the first retaining assembly 17a during bending, is made to close on the round piece 16 so as to function as a contrast to the bending and, when the bending assembly 12 is moved, the first retaining assembly 17a is opened.
  • the retaining assemblies 17a, 17b are opened and the shaped round piece 16 is discharged from the shaping machine 10.
  • the bending assembly 12 is then taken back to the start-of-bending position 12a and the sliding seating 20 is closed by the cover element 21.
  • the shaping machine 10 therefore again assumes its initial configuration as shown in Fig. 3a, ready to begin a new cycle of bending.
