- Therefore, presently, the design and performance of the wire forming device is not quite satisfactory, and it leaves much room for improvement.
- In view of the problems and drawbacks of the prior art, the present invention provides a wire forming device, of which the wiring forming units are capable of moving in two dimensions separately, to simplify the forming tool's adjustment and reduce the forming tool's stroke distance, while achieving fast feed and retraction of setup tools independently.
- The present invention provides a wire forming device, comprising: a base seat and four wire forming units. The base seat is provided with a wire output port at its center, used to output the wire. The four wire forming units are disposed respectively on four corners of the base seat, and each having a movable plate. Each movable plate is provided with a lower plate, that is able to move to left and right on the base seat; and an upper plate disposed on a top surface of the lower plate, and is able to move upward and downward on the top surface of the lower plate. A plurality of tool seats in parallel are disposed at a front end of the upper plate, while an up-down driver is disposed at a rear end of the upper plate, so that up-down driver drives the upper plate to move upward and downward on the lower plate. A left-right driver is disposed on a back side of the base seat and on a back side of each lower plate, so that the left-right driver drives the upper plate and the lower plate to move to left and right at the same time on the base seat. As such, through using the up-down driver and the left-right driver, the upper plate and the lower plate are driven to move separately up and down, left and right in 2-dimensional movements, hereby bringing a forming tool of the tool seat to perform two-dimensional processing on the wire in the wire output port. Therefore, the present invention is capable of simplifying the forming tool's adjustment, reducing the forming tool's stroke distance, while achieving fast feed and retraction of setup tools independently.

- Refer to
Figs. 1 to 3 respectively for a front schematic diagram of a wire forming device according to an embodiment of the present invention; a back schematic diagram of a wire forming device according to an embodiment of the present invention; and a schematic diagram of a wire forming device in various steps of operation according to an embodiment of the present invention. - As shown in
Figs. 1 to 3 , the present invention provides a wire forming device, comprising: abase seat 10 and fourwire forming units 20. - The
base seat 10 is provided with awire output port 11 at its center, used to output the wire. - The four
wire forming units 20 are disposed respectively on four corners of thebase seat 10, and each having amovable plate 21. Eachmovable plate 21 is provided with alower plate 211, that is able to move to left and right on thebase seat 20; and anupper plate 212, that is disposed on a top surface of thelower plate 211, and is able to move upward and downward on the top surface of thelower plate 211. A plurality oftool seats 22 are located in parallel and disposed at a front end of theupper plate 212, while an up-downdriver 23 is disposed at a rear end of theupper plate 212, so that up-downdriver 23 drives theupper plate 212 to move upward and downward on thelower plate 211. A left-right driver 24 is disposed on a back side of thebase seat 10 and on a back side of eachlower plate 211, so that the left-right driver 24 drives theupper plate 212 and thelower plate 211 to move to left and right on thebase seat 10 at the same time. - In operation, through driving by the up-down
driver 23 and the left-right driver 24, theupper plate 212 and thelower plate 211 are driven to move separately up and down, left and right in 2 dimensions, hereby bringing a forming tool of thetool seats 22 to perform 2-dimensional processing on the wire in thewire output port 11. Therefore, the present invention is capable of simplifying the forming tool's adjustment, reducing the forming tool's stroke distance, while achieving fast feed and retraction of setup tools independently. - In the following, refer again to
Figs. 1 ,2 , and3 . As shown inFigs. 1 ,2 ,3 , fourmovable plates 21 are disposed respectively on four corners of thebase seat 10, to form angles of 45 degrees, 135 degrees, 225 degrees, and 315 degrees respectively with thebase seat 10. For the conventional wire forming machine,movable plates 21 are disposed respectively 0 degree, 45 degrees, 90 degrees, 135 degrees, 180 degrees, 225 degrees, 270 degrees, and 315 degrees relative to thebase seats 10. However, through long time observation of the Applicant, it is found that, when themovable plates 21 is located 0 degree to 180 degrees relative to thebase seat 10, the force of moving downward the driving device is required to provide is minimal, while the force of moving upward the driving device is required to provide is greater. When themovable plates 21 is located 90 degrees to 270 degrees relative to thebase seat 10, the force of moving forward and backward the driving device is required to provide is minimal. - Therefore, when the
movable plates 21 is located 45 degrees, 135 degrees, 225 degrees, and 315 degrees relative to thebase seat 10, the up-downdriver 23 and the left-right driver 24 may provide the most even driving force, for the left-right and up-down movements. - A servo motor is each provided on the up-down
driver 23 and the left-right driver 24, to drive themovable plates 21. - The setup tool of the
tool seat 22 is a forming tool used to make the spring. The forming tool can be set up to move in two dimensions. The strength of the spring can be controlled. For the spring of stronger strength, the density of the spring is made higher, while for the spring of less strength, the density of the spring is made lower. - The
upper plate 212 is disposed on a slidingrail 2121 on a top surface of thelower plate 211, such that it is able to move upward and downward on the top surface of thelower plate 211. - The
lower plate 211 is disposed on a slidingrail 2111 in thebase seat 10, such that it is able to move to the left and to the right on thebase seat 10. - Refer to
Figs. 4A ,4B ,4C ,4D ,4E ,4F respectively for schematic diagrams of a wire forming device in various steps of operation according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown inFigs. 4A to 4F , through using the up-downdriver 23 and the left-right driver 24, theupper plate 212 and thelower plate 211 can be set up to move upward, downward, left, and right in two dimensions, such that two oppositeupper plate 212 and thelower plate 211 can be set up to move upward, downward, left, and right in two dimensions, thus the forming tool ofdifferent tool seats 22 may perform processing to produce springs (as shown inFigs. 4A ,4B ,4C ). Alternatively, two adjacentupper plate 212 and thelower plate 211 can be made to move upward, downward, left, and right in two dimensions, as such the forming tool ofdifferent tool seats 22 may perform processing to produce springs (as shown inFig. 4D ). In addition, three sets ofupper plates 212 and thelower plates 211 can be set up to move upward, downward, left, and right in two dimensions, thus the forming tool ofdifferent tool seats 22 may perform processing to produce springs (as shown inFig. 4E ). Further, four sets ofupper plates 212 and thelower plates 211 can be set up to move upward, downward, left, and right in two dimensions, as such the forming tool ofdifferent tool seats 22 may perform processing to produce springs (as shown inFig. 4F ). - The above detailed description of the preferred embodiment is intended to describe more clearly the characteristics and spirit of the present invention.
