Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a support device for the longitudinal bars in machines for manufacturing metal cages, in particular of reinforced concrete.
  • Patent EP 00035477 illustrates a machine to realize cages with spiral winding, comprising an operating flange and a flange freely swivelling borne by a carriage that can move frontally to the operating head, both flanges being prearranged to support the longitudinal bars in preset positions.
  • the bars are rotated by the above-mentioned flanges, while the metal wire, unwound by a lateral reel and borne in longitudinal motion, gradually spiral winds around the same bars.
  • Patent IT 1216960 illustrates the use of swivelling members consisting of disks equipped with holes arranged at different radial distances from the longitudinal axis of formation of the cage, coinciding with the rotation axis of the machine, to insert the longitudinal bars.
  • the longitudinal bars are associated with the above-mentioned holes of the swivelling members through suitable sleeve couplings.
  • Patent US 3,579,259 illustrates a similar support system of the bars, in which the swivelling members consist of disks having a series of radial slots, regularly spaced, suitable to be engaged by the longitudinal bars.
  • the bars are fixed in the desired position through suitable blocking members.
  • the support system of the bars illustrated in patent application UD2004A000095 belongs to the same typology.
  • Patent application PS2001A000012 illustrates a different support mode of the longitudinal bars in which the swivelling members are equipped with an interchangeable ring on which the insertion sleeves of the bars can be applied, in various positions.
  • the described devices for the support in rotation of the longitudinal bars have the limit not to allow a complete freedom in choosing the shape of the cage.
  • the arrangement of the longitudinal bars onto the swivelling members is, in fact, variable only within a predetermined number of positions, depending on the mounting positions of the insertion sleeve couplings of the bars. In other words, it is possible to vary the diametric dimensions of the cage and the number and distribution of bars engaged only for finite intervals and, often, not with the needed freedom.
  • the aim of the present invention is to overcome the cited drawbacks by devising a device that allows to operate optimally the support of the longitudinal bars in machines for manufacturing metal cages of various dimensions.
  • a further aim of the present invention is to devise a support device of the bars of simple conception, equipped with a certainly reliable functioning and of versatile use, and also relatively economic cost- wise.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a front view of the device for the swivelling support of the bars according to the claimed invention
  • FIG. 2 illustrates an exploded perspective view of the claimed device
  • FIG. 3 illustrates a view of a detail of the claimed invention
  • Fig. 4 illustrates a perspective view of a different embodiment of the device for the swivelling support of the bars according to the present invention
  • FIG. 5 illustrates its corresponding view according to an axial plane
  • Fig. 6 and 7 respectively illustrate a perspective view and an axial section view of the same device in assembling position on a rotating member of the machine for manufacturing metal cages. Best Mode
  • 1 refers to the device for supporting metal bars in a machine for manufacturing metal cages, in particular for the framework of foundation piles, reinforced-concrete columns and similar.
  • the metal cage to realize consists of a series of longitudinal bars arranged parallel and made integral, according to a given geometry, through a metal wire, spiral wound onto the same bars, according to an adequately preset pitch.
  • the bars suitable to form the metal cage to be arranged according to a circular transversal profile, in order to determine the realization of a cylindrical pile. It is clearly possible to provide for realizing cages having a different transversal profile, for instance elliptical, polygonal, with asymmetrical distribution of the bars or similar.
  • the support device 1 has a swivelling member suitable to support the longitudinal bars in the fixing positions to form the cage.
  • a swivelling member suitable to be put in rotation by a suitable mover, according to the axis of the cage in formation, to bring the longitudinal bars in rotation during the forming of the cage.
  • the swivelling member comprises a cross support 2 basically consisting of one or more crossbars 3, which are arranged on a plane orthogonal to the cited axis of the cage in formation. More specifically, as illustrated, the cross support 2 consists of a pair of crossbars 3 arranged perpendicular one to the other and reciprocally coupled, in central position, through a suitable junction member 4.
  • the orthogonal arms defined by the crossbars 3 have respective areas of anchorage consisting of longitudinal slots 5. Therefore, the slots 5 are, in working configuration, radial to the axis of the cage in formation.
  • the circular supports 6 are concentrically fixed to the cross support 2, at said radial slots 5, through suitable screw members 7.
  • the circular supports 6 are respectively equipped with a basically circumferential slot 8.
  • the circumferential slot 8 preferably consists of a series of circular sectors, interposed by small solid portions suitable to carry the screw members 7 for fixing to the cross support 2.
  • the circular support 6 fixed to the cross support is suitable to bear a plurality of sleeve couplings 9 suitable to receive, in known way, the longitudinal bars.
  • the couplings 9 are suitable to be fixed in adjustable positions in correspondence with the circumferential slot 8 of the circular support 6, through respective fixing members 10.
  • the couplings 9 are also suitable to be fixed, as better explained below, in correspondence with the radial slots 5 of the cross support 2.
  • the fixing members 10 consist of a plate with elongated shape having a hole 11 for the insertion of the coupling 9 and equipped with a slot 12, in use arranged radial to the axis of the cage in formation, suitable to allow the adjustment of the radial positioning of the longitudinal bars on the rotating member.
  • the coupling 9 is inserted in the hole 11 through a bushing 19.
  • the fixing members 10 are fixed to the circular support 6 through suitable screw members 13, which cross the respective slots 12.
  • the screw members 13 have a prismatic portion 14 through which they are suitable to engage the slots 12 in order to prevent an undesired rotation of the whole fixing member 10 due to the stresses deriving from the manufacturing.
  • the screw members 13 are shaped so that they can be mounted either towards the outside and towards the inside of the swivelling support 6, thus increasing the flexibility of use since it is possible to cover two ranges of diameters, using the adjustment along the slots 12 both towards the inside and towards the outside of the swivelling support 6.
  • the most suitable circular support 6 within the series of available supports is selected.
  • Such support 6 is fixed concentric to the cross support 2, through the suitable screw members 7 which engage the crossbars 3 of the cross support 2.
  • the support 6 can have any geometry according to the typology of handwork to realize, not only circular.
  • the couplings 9 are fastened to the circular support 6 through the respective fixing members 10.
  • the fixing members 10 of the couplings 9 are fastened in preset positions spaced along the circumferential slot 8 of the circular support 6, through the corresponding screw members 13.
  • the slot 12 of the fixing members 10, in use arranged radial to the swivelling member, that is radial to the axis of the cage in formation, allows to precisely adjust the radial position of the longitudinal bars on the swivelling member.
  • the fixing members 10 of the couplings 9 can be manually mounted by the operator in the preset positions for the longitudinal bars along the preset geometric profile. This could, though, lead to an inaccurate result, especially in the case of metal cages equipped with a high number of bars or with a particular geometric profile. In fact, each bar could have an inaccurate circumferential position, so that the bars would result placed at irregular distances, and also an inaccurate radial position, so that the cage would result completely or partly decentralized.
  • the described device reaches the aim to realize in optimum way the support of longitudinal bars in the machines to manufacture metal cages for reinforced concrete and similar of different sizes, in particular allowing the formation of metal cages of any shape.
  • the couplings 9 are suitable to be fixed onto the support member 1 in position adjustable both circumferentially and radially.
  • a prerogative of the claimed device consists, furthermore, of the fact that it also allows the formation of cages having geometry different from the cylindrical one, for instance elliptical, prismatic and similar.
  • the couplings 9 can, in fact, be arranged at different radial distances from the axis of the cage in formation and basically in any suitable position, thanks to the wide range of adjustment allowed by the above- mentioned slots 5, 8 and 12 of the support members.
  • the claimed device has a very simple and of smooth use structure, advantageously to the productivity of the machine.
  • the cross support element 2 consists of a plurality of arms 30 stiffly fixed to each circular support 6 and protruding outwardly from the same circular support 6. It is preferably provided the use of four arms 30 arranged according to two perpendicular axis passing through the geometry centre of the circular support 6.
  • the arms 30 consist of prismatic battens equipped at an end with a connection head 31 to the circular support 6 and suitable to be removably fastened, for instance through suitable screw means, to the inner surface of the swivelling member 20 to the machine for manufacturing metal cages.
  • the battens are hardened by longitudinal ribs 32.
  • the arms 30 have different lengths according to the diametric dimension of the circular support 6, in order to have, in mounting position onto the circular support 6, a predetermined diametric extension, according to the dimensions of the swivelling member 20 of the machine. Practically, when the diametric dimensions of the circular support 6 increase, the length of the arms 30 proportionally decreases, so that the circumferential distribution of the bars perfectly corresponds to the project requirements. Therefore, it is not necessary to arrange the fixing members 10 in the position which is most similar to the theoretic position, due to the obstruction which could result with the crossbars 3 of the cross support 2.
  • the connection head 31 of the arms 30 is adequately bridge- shaped, in order to define a channel in correspondence with the above-mentioned uninterrupted slot 8.
  • the head of the screw members 13 for blocking the fixing members 10 of the couplings 9 can, in fact, be housed inside the above- mentioned channel of the bridge-shaped head 31 (see in particular fig. 7).
