Definitions
- the invention relates to a coiling tool for a spring coiling machine, with a tool holder and an exchangeable coiling insert that is attached to the tool holder.
- the wire coming from a wire feeder is advanced against one or two coiling fingers or against coiling pins, deflected by them on a circular path and formed as a spring.
- the winding tools used there are those in which the tool holder and the winding insert are made in one piece or the winding insert is soldered into the tool holder.
- the EP 2 520 384 A1 describes a winding tool and forms the basis for the preamble of claim 1.
- a winding tool is described in which a winding insert is used, which is fastened in an exchangeable and adjustable manner in a tool holder and held there with a claw arrangement. Different orientations and positioning of the winch insert can be set using a large number of adjusting screws.
- this known tool however, there are a large number of different individual elements, some of which can be rotated, which is quite complicated in the overall arrangement and requires a relatively large amount of space.
- the U.S. 7,082,797 B1 describes a winding tool in which the winding insert is inserted into a recessed receptacle in the front end area of the tool holder that corresponds to its shape and is fastened there by means of a screw.
- the tool holder is at its front end, where the winch insert protrudes from it, provided with a lateral widening, which means that z. B. in the case of a two-finger winch system, two such tools cannot be placed side by side or moved together very closely.
- the winding insert fastened to the tool holder has to be replaced when it can no longer be used due to wear, which is relatively expensive.
- a winding tool of the type mentioned is in the spring coiling machine from U.S. 4,387,585 deployed. It consists of a freely rotatable roller that is attached to a tool holder and against which the wire being fed runs for deflection. Winding rolls of this type are preferably used in large machines in which there is considerable friction between the tool and the workpiece. However, it is necessary to use fitted screws, roller bearings, sealing rings and lubrication for the rotatable bearing of the winding roll, which is considerably expensive. In the event of wear and tear on the winding roll or other damage, the winding roll must be replaced, which means a noticeable installation effort and is costly.
- the invention is based on the object of proposing a winding tool of the type mentioned at the outset, which can be used again quickly in the event of wear or breakage of the winding insert without having to change it.
- the winding insert comprises a cylindrical base and, axially next to this, a winding body, with the cylindrical base being non-rotatably attached to a bearing surface formed on the front end region of the tool holder in the assembled state, and in its area opposite this front end area rests against a supporting step that delimits the contact surface there and runs in the shape of a segment of a circle, and that the winch insert is fastened to the tool holder via a central clamping means, and that on the side of the cylindrical base facing the contact surface of the tool holder there is an effective in its circumferential direction Grid is attached, which is associated with a corresponding locking counter-element on the bearing surface of the tool holder.
- the coiling tool according to the invention is set up once in terms of its axial position when it is installed in the spring coiling machine. After that, the location and position of the winding tool no longer has to be changed, since even if the winding insert wears out, breaks, or the like, only the central clamping device is loosened slightly, the winding insert is then rotated a little further and then the clamping device is tightened again got to. This is made possible by the non-rotatable attachment of the winch insert to the tool holder, which, unlike a rotating winch reel, means that wear, breakage or the like during winding can only occur at the point where the wire runs against the winch insert.
- the coil insert which is mounted non-rotatably on the tool holder, is supported with its rear side facing away from the front side of the tool holder (and thus the contact point of the wire to be coiled) on the support step, which is formed on the tool holder, so that the the forces acting on the use of the winch cannot (or only to a small extent) be absorbed by the central tensioning means, with the majority of the forces to be absorbed being supported by the support stage.
- fastening means can also be provided for the central clamping means for fastening the winch insert to the tool holder, but it is particularly advantageous if a screw or a screw bolt or a clamping claw is used for this purpose.
- a quick-release fastener can also be equally advantageous.
- such a grid can be in the form of a circumferential toothing or in the form of radially running grooves on the winding insert, which interact positively with suitable counter-elements, such as feather keys or pins, in the bearing surface of the tool holder.
- the height of the support step corresponds approximately to the axial thickness of the cylindrical base, so that the peripheral surface of the support base is available locally over its entire height for the transmission of the support forces acting between the two.
- the winding body located axially next to the support base can be provided in any suitable form, but is particularly preferably designed in a circular form as a winding roller or else in the form of a polygonal body. In this case, the winch body and the support base are preferably formed in one piece.
- the winch body is provided on its circumference with a circumferential groove for wire guidance.
- the winding insert is preferably made of hard metal, tool steel, ceramic or a fiber composite material.
- In 1 is shown in a perspective oblique view of the structure of a wire forming machine in the form of a spring coiling machine 1 (only in principle).
- This has a machine frame 2, which is only indicated in the drawing, and on the front side of which a wire feeder 3 is attached, which is formed from several pairs of wire feeder rollers 4 arranged next to one another.
- An endless wire 5 is conveyed to a wire guide 6 via this and advanced through it into a winding station 7 .
- two winding units 7a and 7b are arranged one above the other, one (in 1 although not shown) incline device may be present.
- the wire 5 is drawn in through the wire feed 3 via the wire feed rollers 4 via a (in 1 not shown) program-controlled servo motor.
- the spring coiling machine 1 according to 1 is further provided with a cutting unit 8, which works with a movable cutting tool 9, which cooperates with a cutting mandrel 10 during the cutting process.
- Each winding unit 7a, 7b is provided with a winding tool 11 which, like the 1 shows, is attached to a lever 12a and 12b, respectively.
- Each of these levers 12a, 12b is in turn moved via an associated cam 14a or 14b with the interposition of a roller 13a or 13b guided on the corresponding cam, with each of the cams 14a or 14b being driven by its own program-controlled servomotor.
- the control cams 14a, 14b are driven intermittently both forwards and backwards.
- In 2 is a winding tool 11 in a perspective view and in 3 the same winding tool shown in an exploded view. Reference is first made to these figures.
- the winding tool 11 first comprises an elongate tool holder 15 which, at its front end region (into the Figures 2 and 3 : upper end area), which faces the wire 5 in the mounted state, has a substantially flat bearing surface 16, which is delimited at its area opposite the front end area by a support step 17 running in the shape of a segment of a circle.
- This support surface 16 is open towards the front end of the tool holder 15 (cf. 3 ), whereby when the winch insert 18 is mounted, it protrudes forwards at the front end of the tool holder 15 (see 2 ).
- the winding insert 18 is fixed on the bearing surface 16 via a central fastening screw 19 which is screwed into a threaded hole 20 which is arranged centrally in the bearing surface 16 of the tool holder 15 .
- the winding insert 18 includes, like the Figures 2 and 3 show, a lower (ie the bearing surface 16 facing) cylindrical base 21, which is axially directly (and on the bearing surface 16 facing away from the cylindrical base 21) a winding body 22 connects.
- This winding body 22 is provided on its circumference with a circumferential winding groove 23 against which the conveyed wire 5 runs during operation and is deflected by it onto a circular path and formed into a helical shape.
- a straight receiving groove 25 is attached, in which two feather keys 26, each on one side of the threaded bore 20 at the end of the receiving groove there 25, are used and fastened in each case via a fastening screw 27 in the groove 25.
- the depth of the receiving groove 25 is selected so that the feather keys 26 inserted there protrude in the assembled state on the open upper side of the receiving groove 25 and, when the winch body 22 is assembled, protrude into one of the radially star-shaped outwardly extending grooves 24, whereby a non-rotatable connection of the winding body 22 to the tool holder 15 is created.
- the coil insert 18 becomes worn or even breaks, it is only necessary to loosen the fastening screw 19 for the coil insert 18 to such an extent that the coil insert 18 is lifted axially from the support surface 16 until the grooves 24 disengage the keys 26, after which the winding insert 18 is rotated until the following groove 24 on the underside of the cylindrical base 21 overlies the keys 26. Subsequently the winding insert 18 can again be displaced axially towards the bearing surface 16, with the feather keys 26 now being able to engage in the new groove 24 on the underside of the cylindrical base 21 lying above them. After this, only the fastening screw 19 has to be tightened and the winding insert 18 can be used again immediately.
- the winch insert 18 with a polygonal body 28, which is also provided with a circumferential winch groove 23, which here on the graphic representation of 6 expressly referred to as essential.
- the polygonal body 28 is an octagonal body, although a decagonal or twelve-sided or even just a hexagonal body could also be used here.
- the height H of the support step 17 corresponds to the axial length h of the cylindrical base 21, which can thus be supported over the entire height H of the support step 17 under load when it is mounted on the bearing surface 16.
- the winch insert 18 can be made of any suitable material, but is preferably made of hard metal, tool steel, ceramic or a fiber composite material.

Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Windewerkzeug für eine Federwindemaschine, mit einem Werkzeughalter und einem auswechselbaren Windeeinsatz, der am Werkzeughalter befestigt ist.The invention relates to a coiling tool for a spring coiling machine, with a tool holder and an exchangeable coiling insert that is attached to the tool holder.
Bei Federwindemaschinen, für welche das erfindungsgemäße Windewerkzeug einsetzbar ist, wird der von einem Drahteinzug herkommende Draht gegen einen oder auch zwei Windefinger oder gegen Windestifte vorgeschoben, durch diese auf eine Kreisbahn abgelenkt und als Feder geformt.In spring coiling machines for which the coiling tool according to the invention can be used, the wire coming from a wire feeder is advanced against one or two coiling fingers or against coiling pins, deflected by them on a circular path and formed as a spring.
Bei den eingesetzten Windewerkzeugen gibt es solche, bei denen der Werkzeughalter sowie der Windeeinsatz einstückig ausgeführt sind oder der Windeeinsatz in den Werkzeughalter eingelötet wird. Die
Die
Ein Windewerkzeug der eingangs genannten Art wird bei der Federwindemaschine aus der
Ausgehend hiervon liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Windewerkzeug der eingangs genannten Art vorzuschlagen, das bei auftretendem Verschleiß oder Bruch des Windeeinsatzes ohne einen Wechsel desselben rasch wieder einsetzbar ist.Proceeding from this, the invention is based on the object of proposing a winding tool of the type mentioned at the outset, which can be used again quickly in the event of wear or breakage of the winding insert without having to change it.
Erfindungsgemäß wird dies bei einem Windewerkzeug der eingangs genannten Art dadurch erreicht, daß der Windeeinsatz einen zylindrischen Sockel und, axial neben diesem, einen Windekörper umfaßt, wobei im montierten Zustand der zylindrische Sockel auf einer am vorderen Endbereich des Werkzeughalters ausgebildeten Auflagefläche drehfest angebracht ist, sowie an seinem diesem vorderen Endbereich gegenüberliegenden Bereich gegen eine die Auflagefläche dort begrenzende, kreisabschnittförmig verlaufende Stützstufe anliegt, und daß der Windeeinsatz über ein zentrales Spannmittel am Werkzeughalter befestigt ist, und daß an der der Auflagefläche des Werkzeughalters zugewandten Seite des zylindrischen Sockels eine in dessen Umfangsrichtung wirksame Rasterung angebracht ist, der auf der Auflagefläche des Werkzeughalters ein entsprechendes Verrastungs-Gegenelement zugeordnet ist.According to the invention, this is achieved with a winding tool of the type mentioned at the outset in that the winding insert comprises a cylindrical base and, axially next to this, a winding body, with the cylindrical base being non-rotatably attached to a bearing surface formed on the front end region of the tool holder in the assembled state, and in its area opposite this front end area rests against a supporting step that delimits the contact surface there and runs in the shape of a segment of a circle, and that the winch insert is fastened to the tool holder via a central clamping means, and that on the side of the cylindrical base facing the contact surface of the tool holder there is an effective in its circumferential direction Grid is attached, which is associated with a corresponding locking counter-element on the bearing surface of the tool holder.
Das erfindungsgemäße Windewerkzeug wird beim Einbau in die Federwindemaschine bezüglich seiner axialen Position einmal eingerichtet. Danach muß die Lage und Position des Windewerkzeugs nicht mehr verändert werden, da selbst im Falle eines auftretenden Verschleißes, eines Bruchs des Windeeinsatzes o. ä. nur das zentrale Spannmittel etwas gelöst, anschließend der Windeeinsatz ein Stückchen weiter gedreht und sodann das Spannmittel wieder angezogen werden muß. Dies wird ermöglicht durch die drehfeste Anbringung des Windeeinsatzes am Werkzeughalter, durch die, anders als bei einer drehbaren Winderolle, auftretender Verschleiß, Bruch o. ä. während des Windens nur an der Stelle, an der der Draht gegen den Windeeinsatz anläuft, auftreten kann. Wird durch Lösen des Spannmittels und durch Verdrehen des Windeeinsatzes ein neuer, unbeschädigter Abschnitt des letzteren an die Anlaufstelle des Drahtes verbracht, was durch eine kleine Verdrehung des Windeeinsatzes besonders rasch durchführbar ist, dann kommt es nicht nur zu einer nur kurzen Unterbrechung beim Arbeitseinsatz der Federwindemaschine, sondern der Windeeinsatz kann auch ziemlich oft in dieser Weise weitergedreht werden, was zu einer besonders guten Ausnutzung des Windewerkzeugs und damit zu einer Einsparung von Werkzeugkosten führt.The coiling tool according to the invention is set up once in terms of its axial position when it is installed in the spring coiling machine. After that, the location and position of the winding tool no longer has to be changed, since even if the winding insert wears out, breaks, or the like, only the central clamping device is loosened slightly, the winding insert is then rotated a little further and then the clamping device is tightened again got to. This is made possible by the non-rotatable attachment of the winch insert to the tool holder, which, unlike a rotating winch reel, means that wear, breakage or the like during winding can only occur at the point where the wire runs against the winch insert. If a new, undamaged section of the latter is brought to the contact point of the wire by releasing the tensioning device and twisting the winch insert, which can be carried out particularly quickly by twisting the winch insert slightly, then there is not just a brief interruption when the spring coiling machine is used, but the coiling insert can also be turned further in this way quite often, which leads to a particularly good utilization of the coiling tool and thus to a saving in tool costs.
Im Arbeitszyklus der Federwindemaschine stützt sich der Windeeinsatz, der am Werkzeughalter unverdrehbar montiert ist, mit seiner der Vorderseite des Werkzeughalters (und damit der Anlaufstelle des zu windenden Drahtes) abgewandten Rückseite an der Stützstufe, die am Werkzeughalter ausgebildet ist, ab, so daß die auf den Windeeinsatz einwirkenden Kräfte nicht (oder nur zu einem geringen Teil) über das zentrale Spannmittel aufzunehmen sind, wobei der wesentliche Anteil der aufzunehmenden Kräfte von der Stützstufe abgestützt wird.In the working cycle of the spring coiling machine, the coil insert, which is mounted non-rotatably on the tool holder, is supported with its rear side facing away from the front side of the tool holder (and thus the contact point of the wire to be coiled) on the support step, which is formed on the tool holder, so that the the forces acting on the use of the winch cannot (or only to a small extent) be absorbed by the central tensioning means, with the majority of the forces to be absorbed being supported by the support stage.
Auch können bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Windewerkzeug bei einem gleichen Werkzeughalter unterschiedliche Windeeinsätze für z. B. unterschiedliche Drahtdurchmesser eingesetzt und rasch ausgetauscht werden.With the winding tool according to the invention, different winding inserts for e.g. B. different wire diameters can be used and quickly replaced.
Zur drehfesten Montage des Windeeinsatzes am Werkzeughalter können alle einem Fachmann bekannten, hierfür sinnvollen Maßnahmen vorgesehen werden. Ganz besonders vorzugsweise werden jedoch eine (oder mehrere) Paßfeder(n) oder ein (oder auch mehrere) Arretierstift(e), bevorzugt in die Auflagefläche am Werkzeughalter geeignet eingelassen, zur drehfesten Anbringung des Windeeinsatzes vorgesehen.For the non-rotatable assembly of the winch insert on the tool holder, all measures known to a person skilled in the art that are useful for this purpose can be provided. Very particularly preferably, however, one (or more) feather key(s) or one (or more) locking pin(s), preferably suitably embedded in the bearing surface on the tool holder, are provided for non-rotatably attaching the winch insert.
Auch für das zentrale Spannmittel zur Befestigung des Windeeinsatzes am Werkzeughalter können alle geeigneten Befestigungsmittel vorgesehen werden, ganz besonders vorteilhaft ist es jedoch, wenn hierfür eine Schraube oder ein Schraubbolzen oder eine Spannpratze eingesetzt werden. Auch der Einsatz eines Schnellverschlusses kann gleichermaßen vorteilhaft sein.All suitable fastening means can also be provided for the central clamping means for fastening the winch insert to the tool holder, but it is particularly advantageous if a screw or a screw bolt or a clamping claw is used for this purpose. The use of a quick-release fastener can also be equally advantageous.
Bevorzugt kann eine solche Rasterung in Form einer umlaufenden Verzahnung oder auch in Form radial verlaufender Nuten am Windeeinsatz ausgebildet sein, die jeweils mit geeigneten Gegenelementen, etwa mit Paßfedern oder mit Stiften, in der Auflagefläche des Werkzeughalters formschlüssig zusammenwirken.Preferably, such a grid can be in the form of a circumferential toothing or in the form of radially running grooves on the winding insert, which interact positively with suitable counter-elements, such as feather keys or pins, in the bearing surface of the tool holder.
Es ist weiterhin bevorzugt, wenn die Höhe der Stützstufe angenähert der axialen Dicke des zylindrischen Sockels entspricht, damit für die Übertragung der zwischen beiden wirkenden Stützkräfte lokal die Umfangsfläche des Stützsockels in dessen gesamter Höhe verfügbar ist. Der axial neben dem Stützsockel vorliegende Windekörper kann in jeder geeigneten Form vorgesehen sein, wird aber besonders bevorzugt in kreisrunder Form als Winderolle oder auch in Form eines Polygonkörpers ausgebildet. Dabei sind Windekörper und Stützsockel bevorzugt einteilig geformt.It is also preferred if the height of the support step corresponds approximately to the axial thickness of the cylindrical base, so that the peripheral surface of the support base is available locally over its entire height for the transmission of the support forces acting between the two. The winding body located axially next to the support base can be provided in any suitable form, but is particularly preferably designed in a circular form as a winding roller or else in the form of a polygonal body. In this case, the winch body and the support base are preferably formed in one piece.
Vorteilhafterweise ist der Windekörper an seinem Umfang mit einer umlaufenden Rille zur Drahtführung versehen.Advantageously, the winch body is provided on its circumference with a circumferential groove for wire guidance.
Vorzugsweise besteht bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Windewerkzeug der Windeeinsatz aus Hartmetall, Werkzeugstahl, Keramik oder einem Faserverbundwerkstoff.In the case of the winding tool according to the invention, the winding insert is preferably made of hard metal, tool steel, ceramic or a fiber composite material.
