Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for making meshes, in particular metal meshes.
  • the metal meshes are constituted by the union, for example by electro-welding, of a plurality of longitudinal elements, metal wires or rods, arranged parallel and appropriately distanced, transverse elements, metal wires or rods, generally arranged perpendicular to the longitudinal elements and appropriately distanced to each other.
  • the known types of apparatuses usually include a feeding and advancement unit of the longitudinal elements, as well as a feeding and positioning unit for the transverse elements.
  • the latter in particular, can be fed in progress by reels and cut to size by cutting means, or fed already cut to a fixing station, in correspondence of which each transverse element is fixed to the plurality of longitudinal elements by means of welding means of known type.
  • the longitudinal elements and, with them, the already welded transverse elements are brought forward by one pitch, so as to be able to free the welding station and to fix a following transverse element.
  • the patent EP 1515810 disclose, for example, an apparatus for realizing a metal mesh, comprising a first feeding unit for advancing the longitudinal wires at pitch, a second feeding unit for arranging a transverse wire at a time in a first preparation position, a positioning apparatus for arranging the transverse wire in a second fixing position, and a welding unit for fixing the transverse wires to the longitudinal wires.
  • the apparatuses of the known type do not fully meet the manufacture requirements.
  • such apparatuses do not allow to realize in a quick and easy manner, or only with the use of very complex and cumbersome mechanical groups, metal meshes of any type, for example by fixing the transverse wires above or below the fed longitudinal wires.
  • the meshes In particular in the field of the production of electro-welded meshes, the need to reduce the transport costs of the products is felt. More precisely, the meshes generally have a high bulk and a relatively low weight. To allow transport, the meshes are stacked horizontally on top of each other, thus quickly saturating the available volume, without however reaching the maximum payload of the used vehicles. This circumstance considerably affects the cost for transferring the products. In order to reduce the encumbrance, it is therefore convenient to stack the meshes alternately, with the transverse wires alternately arranged below or above the longitudinal ones, in the stacked condition.
  • Patent AT 215268 discloses a method and an apparatus for making metal meshes.
  • the method provides for the realization of meshes with transverse wires arranged alternately above and below the feeding plane of the longitudinal wires, so as to allow the stacking of the meshes thus obtained by means of a translation motion.
  • the transverse wires of a mesh are inserted into the space between the transverse wires of an overlapping mesh and, equally, the longitudinal wires are inserted into the empty space of longitudinal wires of overlapping meshes.
  • the object of the present invention is to solve said drawbacks by devising a method and an apparatus for producing meshes, in particular made of metal, which allows to perform the operations of feeding the transverse wires in an effective, versatile and precise manner.
  • the method for making meshes provides the steps of advancing a plurality of longitudinal wires by means of an advancement unit on an advancement surface, feeding by means of a feeding unit, in an appropriate phase relation, a transverse wire in correspondence of a fastening or joining position on said advancement surface, joining the longitudinal wires brought forward with respect to the transverse wire fed by means of an operating joining unit in correspondence of said fixing or joining position.
  • Said feeding unit comprises a plurality of loading devices, each being adapted to intercept a respective portion of wire at a pickup position and to transfer it to said fixing position.
  • the loading devices are movable by a transfer motion being transverse to the taken wire, to conduct the taken transverse wire to said fixing position.
  • the cyclic succession of said phases of advancement, feeding and joining creates a first mesh.
  • a prerogative of the invention consists of providing to operate according a positioning motion said feeding unit of the transverse wires, movable between a first operating configuration, on a portion of space with respect to said advancement surface, to a second operating configuration, on the opposite portion of space, so as to be able to feed by means of the same feeding unit a transverse wire from one side for a first mesh and from the opposite side with respect to the longitudinal wires brought forward, for a subsequent mesh.
  • This positioning motion allows to selectively carry out, preferably in alternating succession, a mesh with the transverse wires fixed on one side and a mesh with the transverse wires fixed on the opposite side, thus avoiding the use of tilting units present in the plants of the known type.
  • the feeding unit of the transverse wires crosses the advancement surface on which the longitudinal wires are brought forward.
  • such crossing occurs in correspondence of a free space determined between a completed mesh and the longitudinal wires of a mesh to be made, inserted specifically on the advancement surface itself or separated, for example by cutting means, from the longitudinal wires of the already realized mesh.
  • the method can in fact be realized advantageously both in the case where the longitudinal wires are fed already cut to the advancement surface, i.e. as pre-cut bars, and in the case where they are cut on the advancement surface itself, by means of said cutting means.
  • Said cutting means can be arranged, for example, upstream of the joining unit.
  • the passage of the feeding unit of the transverse wires through said advancement surface can advantageously take place in a suitable phase relation to the feeding motion, for unloading the already realized mesh, and / or inserting the longitudinal wires of the new mesh to be made on the advancement surface.
  • Figures 1 to 13 show a schematic side view of the apparatus according to the invention in successive operating steps of feeding and transferring of the transverse wires of a metal mesh being realized.
  • 1 indicates the apparatus according to the invention for realizing, for example, metal meshes 2 (see Figure 1 ), by joining longitudinal wires 3, arranged parallel and suitably spaced apart, with respect to transverse wires 4, also arranged suitably spaced and, preferably, in a perpendicular manner with respect to said longitudinal wires 3.

  • the advancement unit 10 comprises actuating means, not shown in the figure, suitable for operating the advancement, preferably at pitch, of the longitudinal wires 3 on an advancement surface P along an advancement direction A.
  • the advancement unit 10 preferably comprises guide members 11 suitable to guide the longitudinal wires 3 in a desired centre-to-centre and alignment condition on the advancement surface P.
  • the centre-to-centre distance between the guide members 11 is preferably adjustable, to allow the realization of meshes of any kind.
  • Each guide member 11 preferably forms a duct inside which a longitudinal wire 3 is inserted following the advancement on the advancement surface P.
  • Each guide member 11 is preferably provided with a flared-shaped opening section 12 to facilitate said insertion.
  • the joining unit 30 is arranged downstream of said advancement unit 10, according to said advancement direction A.

More precisely, the joining unit 30 can comprise a first series of welding electrodes 31, arranged above the advancement surface P, and a second series of welding electrodes 32, arranged below the same surface.
  • Each pair of welding electrodes 31, 32 is capable of welding a longitudinal wire 3 to at least one transverse wire 4 suitably overlapping thereto.
  • each pair of welding electrodes 31, 32 is movable relative to the advancement surface P, alternately between a rest configuration, in correspondence of which at least one of the welding electrodes 31, 32 is separate from the advancement surface P, and an active configuration of welding, in correspondence of which said welding electrodes 31, 32 are approached to the advancement surface P in such a way as to clamp the elements to be joined, in the illustrated case, a longitudinal wire 3 to a transverse wire 4 overlapping the first.
  • the series of welding electrodes 31, 32 is connected to a respective electric power supply assembly, so as to operate, in a suitable phase relation to said welding configuration, the joining of the overlapping elements.
  • the feeding unit 20 of the transverse wires 4 comprises a plurality of loading devices 21, aligned in a transverse direction with respect to the advancement direction A, in a number which is sufficient to adequately support the transverse wires 4, in particular according to their length and to the respective section.
  • Each loading device 21 is suitable for intercepting a transverse wire 4, already cut to size or continuously unwound and cut specifically, and for conducting it through a transfer motion which is transverse to the taken wire in a respective fixing position, interposed between the welding electrodes 31, 32, as described in detail below.
  • the transverse wire 4 preferably comes from feeding and / or unwinding means, arranged laterally to the advancement surface P, for example comprising a drawing and / or straightening device.

  • the transverse wire 4 may come from a portion P1 or from an opposite portion P2, with respect to the advancement surface P of the longitudinal wires 3, and thus arrive to the feeding unit 20 at an inlet position, correspondingly, on the portion P1 or on the opposite portion P2.
  • the loading devices 21 are preferably aligned transversely to the advancement direction A of the longitudinal wires 3 and, preferably, are carried by the same support structure, not shown for simplicity.
  • the same feeding unit 20 is selectively active both on the portion P1 of the advancement surface P and on the opposite portion P2.
  • the feeding unit 20 is movable with a positioning motion, preferably alternating, between a first operating configuration, in correspondence of which the loading devices 21 are positioned and operate from the portion P1 of space with respect to the advancement surface P, and a second operating configuration, in correspondence of which the same loading devices 21 are positioned and operate from the opposite portion P2 of space, with respect to the same advancement surface P.
  • the loading devices 21 are movable with said positioning motion, preferably alternating, between the said first operating configuration and said second operating configuration.
  • the advancement surface P is arranged horizontally and, in this case, the first and second operating configuration of the loading devices 21 of the feeding assembly 20 are respectively arranged above and below the advancement surface P itself.
  • said portion P1 defines, in this case, the half-space above the advancement surface P, while the opposite portion P2 defines the half-space below.
  • Said supporting structure is preferably actuated for this purpose by respective actuating means, preferably by suitable transmission members, for example articulation members, so as to accomplish this positioning motion through the advancement surface P and thus bring the loading devices 21 from portion P1 to the opposite portion P2 with respect to the advancement surface P and vice versa.
  • Said positioning motion may be, for example, a motion at least partly circular, or a translational motion or a combination of these motions, in any case suitable to position the loading devices 21 correspondingly on the portion P1 or on the opposite portion P2.
  • the positioning motion of the feeding unit 20 is actuated in a suitable phase relation to the advancement motion of the longitudinal wires 3 in the advancement direction A, in order to avoid any interference of the same unit 20, in particular, with the elements 3, 4 of the produced or awaiting to be produced mesh 2.
  • the motion of the loading devices 21 can be actuated through the advancement surface P in the time interval between the realization of a mesh 2 and of the other.
  • the loading devices 21 can be positioned upstream or downstream of the joining unit 30.
  • a free space S is determined on the same advancement surface P (see Figure 7 ), thanks to the advancement of the mesh 2 just completed and / or to the stopping of the longitudinal wires 3 possibly already inserted into the guide members of the advancement unit 10 for the realization of a subsequent mesh 2.
  • This free space S is therefore suitable for the passage without interference of the feeding unit 20, from the portion P1 to the opposite portion P2 or vice versa, with respect to the advancement surface P. Therefore, in this time interval the longitudinal wires 3 are temporarily stopped upstream of the feeding unit 20, so during said positioning motion the feeding unit 20 does not interfere with them (see, in particular, Figures 6 to 11 ).

  • the feeding unit 20 can advantageously integrate auxiliary storage members, suitable for storing the transverse wires 4 subsequently inserted and feeding them in a suitable phase relation to the loading devices 21. The presence of said storage members therefore serves to optimize the production cycle, freeing the operations of inserting the transverse wires 4 in the apparatus 1 from the operations of feeding the same wires 4 to the joining unit 30 by the loading devices 21.
  • the mobile gripping member 22 is preferably made of a gripper member comprising a pair of cooperating jaws, actuated, for example by contrasting elastic means and / or suitable control means, for example with cams or other types, for receiving between them, in said pick-up positions B1, B2, a respective transverse wire 4 and releasing it, in said fixing positions F1, F2, for joining a respective longitudinal wire 3 on the corresponding side.
