Definitions

  • the invention relates to a driving unit for driving two substantially parallel beams away or towards each other, comprising:
  • Such a driving unit can be used for driving for example a press brake, another press or a shear.
  • press brakes Two main types of press brakes are known in the prior art: hydraulic driven press brakes and electric driven press brakes.
  • a typical hydraulic driven press brake has a stationary lower beam, two hydraulic cylinders arranged on either side of the lower beam and a movable upper beam driven by the hydraulic cylinders. Press brake tools can be seated in the lower beam and upper beam, such that a sheet metal plate can be bent into a desired angle by moving the upper beam and lower beam towards each other.
  • a typical electric driven press brake also has a stationary lower beam and a movable upper beam. Furthermore, a frame is provided, of which at least a frame section runs parallel and on both sides of the movable upper beam. Rows of rollers are arranged on both parts of the frame section and on both sides of the movable upper beam. Belts run in a serpentine path between the rollers. By providing a pull force on the belts, the upper beam is urged towards the lower beam.
  • Such a press brake is for example disclosed in EP 0384529 or in EP2143553 , which discloses a press according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the maximum bending angle is defined by the width of the upper beam.
  • the maximum bending angle is smaller than with a hydraulic driven press brake. This is caused by the extra width of the frame section provided with the rollers.
  • rollers Because part of the rollers are arranged on the movable beam, these rollers will move towards the lower beam, such that the width of the rollers and the upper beam will be more of influence on the maximum bending angle.
  • the width of the driving unit and in case of a press brake the width of the upper beam is reduced, such that the maximum bending angle is increased.
  • the width of the upper beam is only defined by the upper beam itself and the width is no longer increased by rollers arranged on the outside of the upper beam.
  • the first beam comprises a front plate, a back plate spaced apart from the front plate and a plurality of strips arranged between the front plate and the back plate, like the web of an I-beam.
  • the upper beam has a sandwich construction, providing a rigid beam, while leaving room inside the beam for driving means.
  • the driving means comprise a first row of rollers arranged to the first beam, a second row of rollers arranged to the frame, a belt running along the rollers in a serpentine path, and a take up reel for taking up the belt in order to urge the first row of rollers towards the second row of rollers.
  • axles of the second row of rollers extend through at least one opening in the first beam and which axles are arranged with an end to the frame.
  • the strips are arranged between and in near contact with adjacent rollers of a row.
  • the invention further relates to a press brake comprising a frame and a driving unit according to the invention, wherein the frame is arranged to the second beam, such that the driving means are at least arranged between the first beam and the frame.
  • the width of the upper beam is reduced, such that the maximum bending angle is increased. Also with the invention, the width of the upper beam is only defined by the upper beam itself and the width is no longer increased by rollers arranged on the outside of the upper beam.
  • the frame extends parallel to the first beam and the driving means inside the first beam are arranged to the frame via at least an opening in the first beam.
  • the frame section extending parallel to the first beam will be stationary. So, this frame section will be at a distance from the zone, where the sheet metal is bent. As a result, the width of the frame section will be of less or even no influence on the maximum bending angle.
  • An additional advantage is that the stiffness of the frame section can easily be increased without having a substantial effect on the maximum bending angle.
  • a preferred embodiment of the press brake according to the invention comprises at least two parallel guides arranged to the frame and on opposite ends of the first beam for guiding the first beam relative to the frame.
  • the guides ensure that the first beam moves in a defined path and that the stability of the press brake is ensured, in particular when large pressure is exerted onto a workpiece.
  • Figure 1 shows a press brake 1 according to the invention.
  • the press brake 1 has a stationary lower beam 2 with a tool holder 3 having two lower tools 4.
  • a driving unit according to the invention is explained in conjunction with a press brake according to the invention.
  • the driving unit of the invention can also be used for driving two beams in other devices such as a shear or another type of press.
  • Frame parts 5 with integrated guides are arranged on both sides of the lower beam 2.
  • the guides of the frame parts 5 guide a movable upper beam 6.
  • This upper beam 6 also comprises a tool holder 7 and upper tools 8, which cooperate with the lower tools 4.
  • the upper beam 6 is hollow and houses the driving means 9 as will be further explained in combination with figures 2 and 3 .
  • the upper beam 6 has an inner frame 10 with a front plate 11 and a back plate 12.
  • Guide blocks 13 are arranged on the outer end of the frame 10.
  • strips 14, 15 are placed between the front plate 11 and the back plate 12 to further strengthen the upper beam 6.
  • driving means which comprise a double row of primary rollers 16 and a double row of secondary rollers 17.
  • a belt 18 serpentines between the primary rollers 16 and the secondary rollers 17. The free ends of the belt 18 are wound on take up reels 19, 20.
  • Such a drive means 9 is for example known from EP 2143553 .
  • Figures 3A and 3B show a cross sectional view of the upper beam 6. It is clearly shown that the driving means comprising the rollers 16, 17 and belt 18 are arranged inside the upper beam 6, between the front plate 11 and back plate 12.
  • the axles 22 of the primary rollers 16 are arranged to the front plate 11 and back plate 12 of the upper beam 6, while the axles 23 of the secondary rollers 17 are arranged to a parallel frame section 21.
  • rollers 16, 17 are arranged in near contact with each other, with the strips 14, 15 and with front plate 11 and back plate 12. This prevents the belt 18 from slipping off the rollers 16, 17.
