Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cutting machine provided with a special aligning device for stacks of panels.
  • Panels for cabinet construction are produced in large dimensions; such panels, depending on one's needs, must be subsequently cut to size and squared to obtain the various cabinet components such as sides, doors, shelves, etc..
  • Cutting to size is normally carried out by cutting panels first in longitudinal direction in order to obtain strips having a width equal to the width of the components, and subsequently cutting said strips transversally to obtain the individual elements. During this last phase the strips have to be duly pressed against the machine square fence in order to make sure panels are perfectly aligned and squared.
  • This aligning device entails the use of a single pushing member that operates precisely in the saw dust removal plane of the saw blade. It is evident that in this system the thickness of the single pushing member is equal to or less than the saw blade thickness itself.
  • the main object of the present invention is therefore that of providing a cutting machine with an aligning device which is free from the drawbacks previously described.
  • the present invention provides a cutting machine featuring a panel aligning device as claimed in claim 1 or in any one of the directly or indirectly depending claims.
  • Present invention relates therefore to a cutting machine provided with an aligning device comprising a double aligning element, that, when at rest, is positioned under the working table, and that is able to go through the saw gap in order to be placed in working position above the panel working table in an area external to the same saw gap in order to align any panel of any measurement.
  • Number 10 in figure 1 indicates as a whole, a portion of a cutting machine 10* provided with a device 100 for the alignment of a stack (P) of panels in accordance with the present invention.
  • the portion 10 is in proximity of the cross cut section of the stack (P) of panels.
  • Portion 10 includes, in known manner, an end upright support 11 in the top portion of which a guide 12 is secured for the vertical movement (along the two directions as per double pointed arrow (F1)) of a pressure unit 13.
  • Pressure unit 13 in known manner, includes two pressing beams 14 disposed symmetrically at the sides of saw blades 16, 17, (in figure 1 only one pressing beam 14 is visible), which, during the cutting operation of the stack (P), are lowered to press the same stack (P) against a machine table 15.
  • the machine table 15 is crossed by a saw gap 18 for the saw blades path, rather narrow, the width of which is generally a few millimeters larger than the thickness of the same saw blades 16, 17 (which in turn have a variable thickness between 3,5 and 4,5 mm).
  • both saw blades 16, 17 are mounted on a carriage 20 able to be moved along two directions as indicated by double pointed arrow (F2).
  • a guide (not shown) secured on beam 21 below machine table 15 is used ( figure 1 ).
  • the device 100 includes two fixing brackets 22 to fix actuator 23 to saw carriage 20.
  • Actuator 23 (possibly a hydraulic or pneumatic actuator) in turn includes, in known manner, a body 23A with rod 23B onto which a mobile aligning device 24 is secured.
  • Mobile aligning device 24 includes an aligning body 25 which, in turn, carries one or more aligning elements 26A, 26B (see also figures 5, 6 ).
  • the aligning elements 26A, 26B push stack (P) of panels against a square fence 11A ( figure 1 ) by means of the drive pushing action of saw carriage 20 (see later).
  • the mobile aligning device 24 slides vertically along two directions as indicated by double pointed arrow (F3) by means of rod 23B of actuator 23.
  • the aligning body 25 is coupled, in known manner, with a guide 27 secured to saw carriage 20 ( figure 4 ).
  • fixing brackets 22, body 23A of actuator 23, and guide 27 are always fixed in respect to saw carriage 20; while rod 23B of actuator 23 and mobile aligning device 24 (including aligning body 25 and the aligning elements 26A, 26B) are able to move in respect to the same saw carriage 20.
  • aligning elements 26A, 26B are laterally elastic while they are rigid in the pushing direction against the stack (P) of panels.
  • each one of these contact faces (SP1), (SP2) in working position, automatically and completely positions itself to one side of cutting section (SAL).
  • cutting section defines the actual saw dust section being removed by saw blade 17 during the cutting of stack (P) of panels.
  • the two aligning elements 26A, 26B can be connected to each other by a terminal cross section 28 as entailed in a first embodiment shown with reference to figures 2 , 3 , 4, 5, 6 ; or they can be detached as shown in a second embodiment on figure 7 .
  • the aligning elements 26A, 26B are vertically movable (according to double pointed arrow (F3)) from a first rest position (PPR) under the machine table 15 ( figure 5 ), to a second working position (PPL) above the working table 15 ( figure 6 ), and viceversa.
  • the raising and lowering of the aligning elements 26A, 26B (according to double pointed arrow (F3)) are carried out by actuator 23.
  • the elastic aligning elements 26A, 26B when in rest position (PPR) under machine table 15 are undeformed; however, since the distance (D1) between the aligning elements 26A, 26B is larger than the distance (D2) between sidewalls 18A and 18B of saw gap 18 on machine table 15, during aligning elements 26A, 26B crossing through this saw gap 18, the same are pressed between sidewall 18A, 18B and therefore the distance between the aligning elements 26A, 26B is reduced .
  • aligning elements 26A, 26B be very thin (of a thickness, for example, between 0,6mm and 0,8mm), and they could be made of spring steel and possibly covered, where necessary, with plastic material. Nevertheless, aligning elements 26A, 26B could be made of preformed and very resilient plastic material in order to be squeezed when going through saw gap 18, and to reopen to their normal configuration once the same aligning elements 26A, 26B are above (or below) machine table 15.
  • Aligning elements 26A, 26B must be obviously higher than working stack (P) of height (H) to ensure a perfect alignment of the same full stack (P).
  • each sidewall (18A, 18B) of the saw gap (18) is provided with a respective upper or lower rounded or beveled profile radiused with the machine table (15) in order to ease crossing of aligning elements 26A, 26B.
  • each aligning element 26A, 26B be provided with a respective upper radiused profile 29A, 29B, shaped, for example, as a respective curvilinear portion.
  • aligning elements 26A, 26B are also provided with lower radiused profiles 30A, 30B to avoid that they get stuck during lowering from second working position (PPL) to first rest position (PPR).
  • actuator 23 raises aligning elements 26A, 26B bringing them into second working position (PPL), saw carriage 20 moves toward the left in accordance with arrow (F2), making sure aligning elements 26A, 26B are up against the side of the pack (P) of panels.
  • aligning elements 26A, 26B start pressing stack (P) against square fence 11A. In this way the alignment of stack (P) is carried out .
  • FIG. 8 As shown in figures 8 and 9 having two aligning elements 26A, 26B is particularly useful when making a front trim cut ( figure 8 ) or a rear trim cut ( figure 9 ) on a pack of panels (P).
  • front or rear trimming of strips of panels can be just a single millimeter.
  • a single central aligning element and in use coinciding with the cut section, would align the stack (P) with minimum interference.
  • a single aligning element for example the one described in EP-B1-1 312 252 ) would get stuck between the cutting line saw gap and the front or the rear face of panels.
  • aligning elements 26A, 26B in accordance with the teachings of the present invention, it is possible to consider making small front and rear trim cuts, with much less material waste.
  • FIG 7 a second embodiment is shown where the aligning elements 26A*, 26B* are detatched from each other.
  • each aligning element 26A*, 26B* entails a respective indipendent actuator 23*, 23**, and also each aligning body 25*, 25** entails a respective guide (not visible in figure 7 ) secured to saw carriage 20.
  • the rear aligning element 26B* can be activated in case of a small front trim, the front aligning element 26A* in case of a small rear trim, or both the aligning elements 26A*, 26B* for large trims or intermediate cuts as the one for example shown in figures 2 and 10 .
  • a third embodiment of device 100 is shown in figure 11 .
  • the two aligning elements 26A**, 26B** are joined together in correspondance with a longitudinal vertical side (31) opposite to contact faces ((SP1), (SP2)) on stack (P).
  • the two aligning elements 26A**, 26B** can be connected to each other by means of a cross terminal portion (not shown).
  • the two aligning elements are operated in opening and closing by means of a cam and link rod mechanism fixed centrally to a rod drive and laterally, at least indirectly, to the same aligning elements.
  • device 100 includes two fixing brackets 220 to fix actuator 230 to saw carriage 200.
  • Actuator 230 (possibly a hydraulic or pnematic actuator) in turn includes, in known manner, a body 230A with rod 230B onto which a mobile aligning device 240 is secured.
  • Mobile aligning device 240 includes, in turn, two aligning bodies 250*, 250**, each one provided with a respective aligning element 260A, 260B (see also figures 13 , 14 ).
  • the aligning elements 260A, 260B push stack (P) of panels against a square fence 11A ( figure 1 ) by means of the drive pushing action of saw carriage 200.
  • the mobile aligning device 240 slides vertically along two directions as indicated by double pointed arrow (F4) by means of rod 230B of actuator 230.
  • each aligning body 250*, 250** is coupled with a pair of hollow cam guides 261A, 262A, and, respectively, 261B, 262B secured to saw carriage 200.
  • the small upper portions of guides 261A, 262A, and, respectively, 261B, 262B are externally divergent.
  • the coupling of aligning body 250* with its relevant pair of guides 261A, 262A is carried out by means of two special cam followers 263A, 264A; each cam follower 263A, 264A being able to slide in a respective guide 261A, 262A.
  • aligning body 250** is hinged to shaft 230B by means of a pair of hinges (HG3), (HG2) and a respective link rod 265B.
  • hinge (HG2) is common to both link rods 265A and 265B.
  • fixing brackets 220, body 230A of actuator 230, and guides 261A, 262A, and, respectively, 261B, 262B are always fixed with respect to saw carriage 200; while shaft 230B and mobile aligning device 240, are able to move with respect to same saw carriage 200.
  • aligning elements 260A, 260B are rigid and not elestic as in previous embodiments, and in particular also in pushing direction against pack (P) of panels.
  • aligning elements 260A, 260B are in second working position (PPL) ( figure14 ), and automatically dispose themselves to a respective side of cutting section (SAL) already seen in relation to figure 2 since cam followers 263A, 264A, respectively 263B, 264B, are forced to follow respective guides 261A, 262A, and, respectively, 261B, 262B and in turn force, in upper stroke portion, the opening during rising movement and closing during lowering movement of bodies 250*, 250** and of the connected aligning elements 260A, 260B.
  • PPL second working position
  • SAL cutting section
  • aligning elements 260A, 260B are vertically movable (according to double pointed arrow (F4) ( figure 12 )) from a first rest position (PPR) under the machine table 150 ( figure 13 ), to a second working position (PPL) above the working table 150 ( figure 14 ), and viceversa.
  • the raising and lowering of the aligning elements 260A, 260B (according to double pointed arrow (F4)) are carried out by actuator 230 but could also be individually and independently actuated as described previously for solution as per figure 7 .
  • Aligning elements 260A, 260B could be made of steel and eventually covered, where necessary, with plastic material. Nevertheless, aligning elements 260A, 260B could be made of preformed and very resilient and practically undeformable plastic material
  • aligning elements 260A, 260B must be obviously higher than height (H) of working stack (P) to ensure a perfect alignment of the same full stack (P).
  • actuator 230 raises its shaft 230B forcing cam followers 263A, 264A, and, respectively, 263B, 264B to follow relative couple of guides 261A, 262A and 261B, 262B, and opening the two link rods 265A, 265B.
  • the stack alignment is carried out with the same method as seen previously in relation to other embodiments.
  • the main advantage of the panel aligning device object of the present invention is constituted by the fact that with it, it is possible to perfectly align packs of panels against a square fence even when it is necessary to remove from the same pack a small trim (front and rear) with extremely reduced dimension, in the order of even a few millimeters.
