  • the present invention relates to a method for processing components made of wood or the like having an elongated shape, in particular components for frames.
  • a prior art machine comprises an elongated base provided with two longitudinal guiding members, a plurality of cross members slidingly coupled to the longitudinal members, at least one clamping vice mounted on each cross member for locking the component to be processed, a bridge crane mobile along the base in a first direction, a working head mobile along the bridge crane in a second direction transversal to the first direction, and a grip and transfer unit mobile along the bridge crane in the second direction for loading and unloading the components onto and from the clamping vices.
  • the working head is normally provided with tools for longitudinally profiling the components as well as tools for longitudinally drilling the head ends of said components to form holes to house relative connecting pins.
  • the components in order for said pins to be inserted inside the relative holes, the components must first be unloaded from the machine, then transferred to a broaching machine, and lastly arranged in the correct position in said broaching machine.
  • the work cycle described above is relatively complex and naturally takes a relatively long time to perform, it involves the presence of a device to transfer the components from one machine to the other, and relatively large overall dimensions.
  • the present invention also relates to a machine for processing components made of wood or the like having an elongated shape, in particular components for frames.
  • FIG. 1 designated as a whole by number 1 is a machine for processing components 2 made of wood or the like for frames having, in the specific case, an elongated rectilinear shape.
  • the machine 1 comprises an elongated base 3, which extends in a horizontal direction 4, is substantially U-shaped, has two longitudinal guiding members 5 parallel to the direction 4, and supports a bridge crane 6 in turn comprising a vertical upright member 7, which is coupled to the base 3 in a conventional manner so as to perform, along said base 3 and driven by a conventional drive device that is not illustrated, rectilinear movements in the direction 4, and which supports a cross member 8 attached to a free end thereof and extending above the base 3 in a direction 9 horizontal and transversal to the direction 4, and is limited laterally by two faces 10, 11 arranged opposite one another substantially orthogonal to said direction 4.
  • the bridge crane 6 supports a conventional working head 12, which is mounted on the face 10, is connected in a conventional manner to the cross member 8 so as to perform rectilinear movements along said cross member 8 in the direction 9, and comprises a plurality of tool-carrying spindles (not illustrated) mounted in a conventional manner on the head 12 so as to move in a direction 13 vertical and orthogonal to the directions 4 and 9.
  • a plurality of tools can be attached to the tool-carrying spindles (not illustrated), said tools being designed to perform at least milling and/or drilling of the components 2, and being transferred between the relative tool-carrying spindles (not illustrated) and a ring-shaped tool magazine 14 via the upright member 7.
  • the machine 1 is also provided with a plurality of cross elements 15, which are referred to in the following description as "working planes", extending between the longitudinal members 5 and in the direction 9, and slidingly coupled to said longitudinal members 5 so as to be moved, manually or by means of respective conventional drive devices that are not illustrated, along said longitudinal members 5 in the direction 4.
  • working planes a plurality of cross elements 15, which are referred to in the following description as "working planes”, extending between the longitudinal members 5 and in the direction 9, and slidingly coupled to said longitudinal members 5 so as to be moved, manually or by means of respective conventional drive devices that are not illustrated, along said longitudinal members 5 in the direction 4.
  • the working planes 15 support a plurality of clamping vices 16, which are arranged on the relative working planes 15 substantially according to the dimensions of the components 2 to be processed and/or the machining processes to be performed on said components 2, fixed to the relative working planes 15 in the direction 9.
  • the vices 16 are slidingly coupled to the relative working planes 15 so as to be moved, manually or by means of respective conventional drive devices that are not illustrated, along the relative said working planes 15 in the direction 9.
  • Each vice 16 comprises, in the specific case, a lower jaw 17 and an upper jaw 18 which is mobile, driven by a conventional actuating cylinder that is not illustrated, in the direction 13 between a locked position and a released position of a component 2.
  • the components 2 are inserted into, and removed from the vices 16 by a grip and transfer unit 19 comprising an arm 20, which protrudes from the face 11 of the cross member 8 in the direction 4, is coupled in a conventional manner to the cross member 8 so as to perform, along said cross member 8 and driven by a conventional drive device that is not illustrated, rectilinear movements in the direction 9, and supports, in the specific case, two grip and transfer devices 21, 22 which are mobile with respect to one another in the direction 4.
  • the device 21 is attached to the arm 20 in the direction 4, while the device 22 is connected in a conventional manner to the arm 20 so as to perform, along said arm 20 and driven by a conventional drive device that is not illustrated, rectilinear movements in the direction 4.
  • each device 21, 22 comprises a clamping vice 23 in turn comprising a lower jaw 24, which is substantially L-shaped, and is mounted so as to perform rectilinear movements in the direction 13, and an upper jaw 25 connected in a conventional manner to the jaw 24 so as to move, with respect to the jaw 24 and driven by an actuating cylinder 26 attached to said jaw 24, in the direction 13 between a locked position and a released position of a component 2.
  • the machine 1 is also provided with a broaching device 27, which enables assembly pins (not illustrated) to be inserted inside the components 2, and comprises two broaching units 28 attached to a free end of one of the longitudinal members 5.
  • Each unit 28 comprises a delivery duct 29, which extends in the direction 4, cooperates with an end-of-travel device (not illustrated) which is mobile between an operating position, in which the end-of-travel device (not illustrated) protrudes into the duct 29 to prevent the pins (not illustrated) from leaving the duct 29, and a resting position, in which the end-of-travel device (not illustrated) is arranged outside the duct 29 so as to allow the pins (not illustrated) to leave said duct 29, and is connected by means of a relative feed duct 30 to a vibratory hopper 31 that is placed on the ground and contains the pins (not illustrated).
  • the unit 28 also comprises an actuating cylinder 32, which extends in the direction 4, is substantially aligned with the duct 29 in the direction 4, and is provided with an output shaft (not illustrated) which is mobile between a forward position for inserting each pin (not illustrated) as it comes to the end of the duct 29 and a retracted resting position.
  • the unit 28 also comprises a gumming nozzle 33, which is arranged above the duct 29, and is connected by means of a pumping device 34 to a tank 35 that is placed on the ground and contains glue or the like.
  • the grip and transfer unit 19 removes a component 2 from a magazine (known and not illustrated) and releases it inside at least one vice 16 parallel to the direction 4 to allow the working head 12 to process a face 2a of the component 2 parallel to the direction 4 and protruding outwards from the relative vices 16 and to drill holes longitudinally or transversely in the head ends of the component 2 so as to obtain the holes 36 parallel to the direction 4 or to the direction 9.
  • the component 2 can then be transferred from the vices 16 to other vices 16 directly or by the unit 19 to allow the head 12 to process a face 2b of the component 2 opposite the face 2a and protruding outwards from said vices 16.
  • the unit 19 collects the component 2 from the vices 16, places it so that a head end thereof is facing one of the broaching units 28 to enable gumming of the relative holes 36 and the insertion of the relative pins (not illustrated) in the direction 4a, and then places it so that the other head end is facing the other broaching unit 28 to enable gumming of the relative holes 36 and the insertion of the relative pins (not illustrated) in the direction 4b, after which it releases it inside said magazine (not illustrated).
