Definitions

  • the invention relates to a transport system for transporting workpieces from a processing station in the subsequent processing station or clipboard of a press, press line, a simulator or the like according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • step press or press line for cost-effective production.
  • the number of tools then corresponds to the number of work stages that are required for the production.
  • the presses are transport facilities with which the workpieces are transported from one workstation to the next.
  • the transport devices consist of gripper rails or mounting rails which extend through the entire length of the forming machine.
  • the mounting rails are equipped with gripper or retaining elements.
  • gripper or retaining elements are equipped with gripper or retaining elements.
  • a pivoting to the change in position of the part during the transport step may be required.
  • This change in position can also be done by an arranged between the forming stages Orientierstation.
  • the masses of the transfer systems to be accelerated and braked are in complete contrast to the low masses of the parts to be transported. Since the transport step is to be carried out in the shortest possible time in order to achieve the highest possible number of press strokes and thus parts output, the system must have a high speed and thus acceleration and deceleration.
  • each stand area is a transfer device disclosed in DE 196 544 75 A1.
  • the drive elements known as -Parallelkinematik- are used.
  • no telescopic extension of the drive rods is made, but at a constant rod length, the pivot points are changed, thus achieving the transport movements.
  • the forces or torques receiving points of articulation are not constant at a distance to each other and especially if these points are close to each other due to the desired travel curve support problems may occur.
  • further parallel control arms are proposed which are interconnected with crossbeams. To achieve a functionally safe transport of large parts, the proposed system is correspondingly complex and of great height.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a highly flexible and precise transport system with low height, which ensures an advantageous use of the freedom between the upper and lower tool for the purpose of inserting and discharging workpieces.
  • the invention is based on the idea, instead of a rigid transport arm to carry out this 2 parts which are hinged together, connected. To achieve a flat retraction and discharge curve, the pivot angle of the first arm can be selected correspondingly large.
  • the swivel angle is selectable in any technically meaningful range.
  • the transport arm is located in the tool area in a very flat, directed against the horizontal plane position.
  • the articulated arm transport system should be in a lowered position in the stand area, which is given for the subsequent parts transport a favorable freedom of movement to the ramping ram. This freedom of movement allows early retraction and thus in turn reduces the non-productive time. This lowered park position is made possible by superposition of horizontal and vertical movement.
  • the articulated-arm transport system is designed with an additional pivoting movement if required.
  • the mounting position of the articulated arm transport system is arbitrary, d. H. the pivoting movement can take place both above and below the transport plane.
  • 1 presses 2 and 3 are shown in FIG. 1 by a press line.
  • Press rams 4 and 5 carry upper tools 6 and 7.
  • Lower tools 8 and 9 are located on sliding tables 10 and 11.
  • Between the presses are Orientierstationen 12 and 13 arranged.
  • the articulated arm transport systems 18 - 21 are the articulated arm transport systems 18 - 21 according to the invention in different functional positions.
  • Vertical guide rails 22 are attached to the press stands 14-17, carriages 23 with guides 24 carry the articulated arms 43, 44.
  • the drive motor for Armverschwenkung is designated 25.
  • the stationary lifting motor 26 for the vertical movement is via a gear 27, in operative connection with a rack 28. More constructional details are described in the following figures.
  • the task of the articulated arm transport system 18 - 21 is to transport parts in cycles in the transport direction 29 by successively arranged processing and orientation stations. The different movements are not chronological but exemplified.
  • the articulated arm transport systems are arranged at the press stands in pairs and in mirror image opposite each other.
  • Receiving elements for the parts holding means 31 supporting cross-beam 30 are designed so that an automatic replacement is possible in a tool change.
  • the proposed lowered park position favors an early retraction into the tool room.
  • FIG. 2 shows the arrangement of an articulated-arm transport system in a large-scale transfer press 39. Shown are, for example, forming stages in different movement sequences. To reduce the press length was waived on clipboards or Orientierstationen. If a change in position of the part is required, this is performed directly by the articulated arm transport system. For this purpose, a drive 40 is connected via drive elements with the cross-beam 30. The functional sequences are comparable to those already described under FIG.
  • Figure 3a and 3b show an articulated arm enlarged in the front view.
  • the illustration has been chosen so that in Figure 3a, the drive chain for the pivot arm and in Figure 3b, the drive for the pivoting of the crossbar 30 can be explained.
  • Figure 4 for understanding the function.
  • the gear 46 engages and in this the gear 47 a.
  • the gear 47 is fixedly connected to the second Schwenkarmteil 44. If the pivoting movement of the first Schwenkarmteils 43 introduced by the drive motor 25 via gears 41, 42, this generates a rolling rotational movement of the gears 46, 47 and the fixed connection with gear 47, the corresponding pivoting of the second Schwenkarmteils 44 about the axis of rotation 70th
  • the size of the pivoting movement or the pivot angle 48 is infinitely variable via the drive 25, the z. B. is designed as a controlled servo motor. It can be clearly seen that the larger the pivoting angle 48 is chosen, the more the articulated arm system 43, 44 approaches the horizontal extended position and the smaller the required clearance for inserting or discharging the parts. A distortion-free horizontal movement is achieved when based on the rotational or bearing axes 69, 70, 62, the two Schwenkarmmaschine 43, 44 are executed in the same length.
  • the pivot drive 40 mounted on the carriage 23 drives the gear 49. Via intermediate wheel 50, the rotational movement is transmitted to gear 51. Via a common shaft 52 gear 51 is connected to gear 53. Gear 53 drives the mounted in the first Schwenkarmteil 43 gear chain 54 - 57 at. Gear 57 is fixedly connected via a hollow shaft 58 with toothed belt pulley 59 and drives this. Timing belt pulley 59 drives toothed belt pulley 61 via toothed belt 60.
  • Timing belt pulley 61 forms a unit with the receiving and bearing unit of the cross-beam 30 and causes a pivoting movement about the pivot axis 62. Since the pivot drive 40 may be a controlled servomotor, a defined change in position of the parts is guaranteed.
  • the receiving and supporting unit for the cross-beam 30 is exemplified as a universal joint 63, whereby a horizontal and vertical inclination of the cross-beam 30 is made possible.
  • Elements for automatically changing the cross-beam 30 in a tool change are provided and designated 64.
  • FIGS. 3a and 3b The drive chains described in FIGS. 3a and 3b can be seen together from the sectional representation of FIG. In addition to other structural details, in particular, the required for pivoting from the first Schwenkarmteil 43 fixed connection of gear 45, with carriage 23 and also the fixed connection of gear 47 with the second Schwenkarmteil 44 can be seen. Since the opening angle between the Schwenkarm surely 43, 44 is twice as large as the pivot angle 48, and the gear ratio of gear 45 to gear 47 is corresponding to 2: 1.
  • the darker hatched drive chain in FIG. 4 serves to pivot the crosspiece 30 about the pivot axis 62.
  • FIGS 5 and 6 An embodiment without pivoting the cross-beam 30 is shown in FIGS 5 and 6.
  • the functional description of the vertical lifting movement and the gear assembly in the carriage 23 and the first pivot arm 43 can be found in the previous figures.
  • the connection of the first Schwenkarmteil 43 with the second Schwenkarmteil 44 via gear 47 and the movable mounting of the arms is identical to the previously described embodiment.
  • New is the fixed connection of the toothed belt pulley 66 with the first Schwenkarmteil 43.
  • the toothed belt drives 66, 67, 68 are now used to stabilize and positionally correct support the crossbar 30.
