Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a wire forming device, and in particular to 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.
  • Taiwan Patent Number M390828 discloses a "Tool holder rotary type wire forming machine” including: A machine provided with a working platform, on which a rotary disc is arranged; the rotary disc is provided with a plurality of groups of upper and lower push-cutting devices which are separately and oppositely arranged; one end of each push-cutting device is respectively provided with a forming tool; the rotary disc is driven by a driving device to generate rotation motion; and the working platform corresponding to the other ends of the push-cutting devices is annularly provided with drivers with the number the same as the push-cutting devices, so that the drivers can drive the forming tool of the push-cutting devices to conduct the work of bending, winding and cutting off wires.
  • US 2016332212A1 discloses a wire forming device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the forming tool of a tool holder rotary type wire forming machine is only able to move in linear up and down directions, yet it is not able to move in two dimensions separately, thus it is not capable of simplifying the forming tool's adjustment, reducing the stroke distance, and achieving fast feed and retraction of the setup tools.
  • 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 according to claim 1. 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.
  • FIG. 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.
  • the present invention provides a wire forming device, comprising: a base seat 10 and four wire forming units 20.
  • the base seat 10 is provided with a wire output port 11 at its center, used to output the wire.
  • the four wire forming units 20 are disposed respectively on four corners of the base seat 10, and each having a movable plate 21.
  • Each movable plate 21 is provided with a lower plate 211, that is able to move to left and right on the base seat 20; and an upper plate 212, that is disposed on a top surface of the lower plate 211, and is able to move upward and downward on the top surface of the lower plate 211.
  • a plurality of tool seats 22 are located in parallel and disposed at a front end of the upper plate 212, while an up-down driver 23 is disposed at a rear end of the upper plate 212, so that up-down driver 23 drives the upper plate 212 to move upward and downward on the lower plate 211.
  • a left-right driver 24 is disposed on a back side of the base seat 10 and on a back side of each lower plate 211, so that the left-right driver 24 drives the upper plate 212 and the lower plate 211 to move to left and right on the base seat 10 at the same time.
  • 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.
  • movable plates 21 are disposed respectively on four corners of the base seat 10, to form angles of 45 degrees, 135 degrees, 225 degrees, and 315 degrees respectively relative to a central horizontal line lying in the plane of the base seat 10.
  • movable plates 21 are disposed respectively 0 degree, 90 degrees, 180 degrees, and 270 degrees relative to the base seats 10.
  • the movable plates 21 is located 45 degrees, 135 degrees, 225 degrees, and 315 degrees relative to the base seat 10, the up-down driver 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 the movable 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 sliding rail 2121 on a top surface of the lower plate 211, such that it is able to move upward and downward on the top surface of the lower plate 211.
  • the lower plate 211 is disposed on a sliding rail 2111 in the base seat 10, such that it is able to move to the left and to the right on the base seat 10.
  • 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.
  • the upper plate 212 and the lower plate 211 can be set up to move upward, downward, left, and right in two dimensions, such that two opposite upper plate 212 and the lower plate 211 can be set up to move upward, downward, left, and right in two dimensions, thus the forming tool of different tool seats 22 may perform processing to produce springs (as shown in Figs. 4A , 4B , 4C ).
  • two adjacent upper plate 212 and the lower plate 211 can be made to move upward, downward, left, and right in two dimensions, as such the forming tool of different tool seats 22 may perform processing to produce springs (as shown in Fig. 4D ).
  • three sets of upper plates 212 and the lower plates 211 can be set up to move upward, downward, left, and right in two dimensions, thus the forming tool of different tool seats 22 may perform processing to produce springs (as shown in Fig. 4E ).
  • four sets of upper plates 212 and the lower plates 211 can be set up to move upward, downward, left, and right in two dimensions, as such the forming tool of different tool seats 22 may perform processing to produce springs (as shown in Fig. 4F ).
