Definitions

  • the first of these stations contains a mechanism for severing a pin of a predetermined length from a rod or wire by means of two notching blades which reciprocate in opposite directions to each other within the same plane extending transverse to the axis of the rod.
  • the first station further contains a press closely adjacent to and preceding the severing mechanism for clamping the rod in a fixed position during the severing operation and for bending at the same time the central part of the pin before being severed to provide the link when subsequently bent with a curved back.
  • the second station contains a single bending unit in which the previously severed pin is bent in one continuous operation to its final shape by two bending rollers which roll the pin about a bending mandrel and are connected to guide rollers which roll along guideways so that the bending rollers themselves are indirectly guided and only have to engage with the pin during the bending operation.
  • the present invention relates to an apparatus for producing very accurate one-piece chain links which comprises a mechanism for severing pins of the required length for each chain link from a supply of rod stock or wire, a press for bending the rod or wire so as to provide one longitudinal side, the so-called back, of a subsequently bent link with an inward curvature, and a bending mechanism which comprises a bending mandrel and movable bending tools which are operatively associated with this mandrel.
  • An apparatus of the above-mentioned type which was known prior to this invention comprises a first bending station in which a pin which has previously been cut by shears ott a supply of rod stock or wire is first provided by means of a pressing die with a central curvature to form the inwardly curved back of a link as required in the production of accurate chain links.
  • this pin is then bent by two pairs of bending tools which are movable back and forth about a bending mandrel which is divided into two parts within the central plane of the link.
  • the pin In this bending operation, the pin is bent so far about the mandrel that the ends of the pin will still be sufliciently spaced from each other to permit the adjacent link which has been previously bent to its final shape to be inserted into the newly formed link.
  • the two parts of the mandrel are thereafter separated from each other for such a distance that the gap between them will be large enough to permit the new chain link to be withdrawn.
  • This partly bent link is then conveyed to a second bending station in which it will be resiliently held by two final bending mandrels between which by a pair of tongs the last-completed link will be inserted through the opening between the ends of the partly bent link.
  • This second bending station is further provided with two lateral bending tools which are movable in opice posite directions to each other and the ends of which facing the link have a bifurcated shape in accordance with the final outer shape of the link. These bending tools then move toward each other and thereby bend the link to its final shape. The link is then moved to a gauging or calibrating station in which its shape is corrected so that the ends of the bent pin will be disposed accurately opposite to and in alignment with each other.
  • This apparatus has primarily the disadvantage that the operation of bending the pin to the final shape of a chain link has to be carried out in several separate stations and that, since between the individual bending stations the link has to be released several times and must then be newly placed into and clamped in the exact positions as required, it is practically impossible to avoid inaccuracies in the dimensions and shape of the links.
  • the apparatus according to the invention comprises two separate stations which are spaced from each other.
  • the first of these stations contains the severing or cutting mechanism and also the press for bending the central part of a pin so that after the pin has been bent to its final link shape, the back of the link will be inwardly curved
  • the second station contains the entire bending mechanism in the form of a single unit for bending the pin successively to its desired final link shape about a mandrel which is provided with a recess for receiving one side of the adjacent link which has been previously bent to its final shape.
  • This bending mechanism comprises two bending rollers which are movable along, and are positively guided by, guideways and are adapted to close the link completely for being subsequently welded in a conventional manner.
  • the apparatus according to the invention further comprises suitable means for conveying the pin from the first station to the second station and for inserting it in this second station in the proper position for being bent.
  • the apparatus according to the invention has the further advantages that the bending mechanism may be made of a relatively simple design and construction, that the wear upon its elements will be very low, and that it permits the arms of the pin which are subsequently to be welded together to be bent inwardly beyond a position in which they are in straight alignment with each other so that, when the bending rollers are removed, these arms will spring back to the desired position.
  • the bending rollers are preferably not guided directly in guideways but by means of guide rollers which are movable within guide grooves which may be provided in an element which may be combined with the mandrel to form a single unit which may be removable and be exchanged by another unit.
  • This has the advantage that the mandrel together with the element containing the guide grooves may be combined with each other at any place away from the machine.
  • the bending rollers are not guided directly in guideways but by means of separate guide rollers, the wear upon the bending rollers will be relatively low since it is only caused by their movement along the pin while bending the latter.
  • the severing mechanism comprises two Wedge-shaped notching blades which are movable coaxially and simultaneously in opposite directions to each other transverse- 1y to the axis of the material to be severed and the cutting edges of which are directed toward each other.
  • the two notching blades are impressed from opposite sides into the rod or wire material so as to sever from it one pin of a predetermined length after another, each pin will have doubly-inclined end surfaces of a shape similar to a peaked roof.
  • Such end surfaces are of considerable advantage when the abutting ends of each link are subsequently welded together since the heat will then be built up from the inside to the outside which improves the quality of the weld and also the output of the welding apparatus.
  • Each notch is preferably impressed into the rod material to a depth which is smaller than one half of the diameter of the rod so that a small web remains between the two notches which is then broken otf by moving the adjacent ends of the rod at both sides of the notches relative to each other in a direction transverse to the axis of the rod.
  • the broken substantially plane surface which is thus formed between the flanks of the notches forms together with these flanks a trapezoidal roof-shaped end.
  • Such a shape has the considerable advantage that the points of separation of the pin and the rod are completely devoid of any burr or ridge which in the subsequent work on these parts might break off, lead to interferences in the operation of the respective machines or may burn off in the welding operation which may result in an impure structure of the weld which may impair its solidity and thus also the solidity of the link. It is another advantage of this substantially fiat central part of the trapezoidal ends of each pin that, after the pin has been bent into a link shape and when these ends are pressed against each other during the welding operation, they will not slide along their opposite inclined Hanks and be thereby bent out of a straight axial alignment with each other as it would occur if the ends would terminate in sharp edges and these edges would not accurately meet each other.
  • the small connecting web which remains after the notches are impressed may be broken off as long as the two adjacent rod sections are still located within the severing mechanism. It is then only necessary to provide a pressure member which is adapted to exert a pressure immediately adjacent to the notching blades upon one of the rod sections in a direction transverse to its longitudinal direction and in the longitudinal direction of the cutting edges of the blades, and to provide a stationary support for supporting the other rod section and likewise immediately adjacent to the notching blades.
  • a return spring may be provided which acts upon the blade unit.
  • FIG. 1 shows, diagrammatically and partly in section, a plan view of the individual operating stations of the apparatus according to a first embodiment of the invention
  • FIG. 2 shows a cross section which is taken along the line 11-11 of FIG. 1 and in which the parts illustrated are turned at a right angle to their position in FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 shows a cross section which is taken along the line III-III of FIG. 1;

  • the apparatus according to the invention for producing very accurate one-piece chain links is adapted to carry out all cutting and bending operations in two separate stations which may be spaced at any desired distance from each other.
  • the first station comprises a press 1 which consists of a first pressing tool 2 which for being exchangeable is removably secured to a stationary support 3, for example, by a screw 50, and a second pressing tool 4 which is operatively associated with and movable toward and away from the first tool 2.
  • This second tool 4 is removably secured, for example, by a screw 51, to a lever 5 which is pivotably mounted on an axle 5, as shown in FIG.
  • a rod or wire 8 from which the individual links of a chain are to be produced is first fed from its source to the press 1 in which, while the pressing tool 4 is retracted from tool 2, rod 8 is passed longitudinally for a predetermined distance between the grooved and curved ends of tools 2 and 4 which are facing each other. These ends are provided with corresponding curved recesses 2' extending in the direction of feed of rod 8, the recess in tool 2 being concave and that in tool 4 being convex and the walls of both recesses having corresponding longitudinal grooves.
  • rod 8 when the pressing tool 4 is moved toward tool 2, rod 8 will be bent in a direction transverse to its longitudinal axis so as to provide one side, the so-called back, of the link which is subsequently bent with an inward curvature.
  • This curvature of the back of each link is necessary in order to permit the excess of material which is produced by this curved back to be shifted during the welding operation to the ends of the arms of the link which are being welded together so that, when the welding operation is completed, both longitudinal sides of the link will be straight and extend parallel to each other.
  • the length and curvature of the concave and convex recesses 2' and of the longitudinal grooves in their walls should be variable in accordance with the required length of different series of pins which may be accomplished by exchanging the pressing tools 2 and 4 for others of the required dimensions.
  • a cutting or severing mechanism 10 which comprises a pair of wedgeshaped notching blades 11 and 12 the cutting or notching edges of which are directed toward each other and which are movable equally in opposite directions to each other within the same plane which extends transversely to the straight parts of the axis of rod -8.
  • These two blades 11 and 12 are secured by screws 54 and 55 to a pair of two-armed levers 14 and 15, as shown particularly in FIG. 5, which are pivotable about a common axle 1'3 in opposite directions to each other.
  • setscrews 56 and 57 it is possible to adjust the two blades relative to the central plane of the cutting mechanism.
  • levers 14 and '15 opposite to the ends carrying the blades are provided with rollers 16 and 17 between which a cam plate 18 is pivotably mounted on an axle 13' which extends parallel to the axle 13 and engages with rollers 16 and 17.
  • An arm 19 projecting from cam plate 18 is pivotably connected to one end of a connecting rod 20 the other end of which is slidable around an eccentric 21 on drive shaft 22 so as to pivot the cam plate 18 alternately in one or the other direction about its axle 13'.
  • press 1 While the two notching blades 11 and 12 are moved toward each other, press 1 remains closed and therefore clamps the rod 8 in a fixed position. Since at the other side of blades 11 and 12 rod 8 is not clamped in a fixed position and will therefore be shifted forwardly due to the wedging action of the blades when penetrating into the rod, a lateral pressure would normally be exerted upon the blades which would increase the stresses and wear to which they would be subjected merely by their cutting movement. In order to prevent such a lateral pressure upon the notching blades, the severing or cutting unit is mounted so as to be capable of yielding forwardly in the axial direction of and together with the section which is being severed to form the pin 25.
  • This yielding movement may be attained by mounting the two levers 14 and so as to be slidable as a unit in the forward direction along the axle 13 against the action of a compression spring 23 which, when the levers 14 and 15 are pivoted so as to retract the blades 11 and 12 at the end of their notching movement, returns the lever unit 14, 15 to its normal position in engagement with a fixed stop member 24 which is mounted between the press 1 and the severing mechanism 10.
  • the pin is gripped by a pair of conveying tongs 26 which is movable by suitable driving means, not shown, in the direction of the double-arrow 26 and as soon as the pin is completely severed from rod 8, carries the pin to a bending mechanism 28 and passes the pin through a previously made chain link 27 until its front end abuts against a stop member 58.
  • This chain link 27 which carries those links of a chain which have been previously made is held in a fixed position in the bending mechanism 28 by means of turning tongs 32.
  • press 1 While the pin 25 is being conveyed by the tongs 26 to the bending mechanism 28, press 1 is opened and rod 8 is fed by the feeding mechanism, not shown, for the required length of one pin in the forward direction. Thereafter, press 1 is closed and thereby bends the rod 8 so as to form the curvature for the back of the next link to be bent, and also clamps the rod in a fixed position until the notching blades 11 and 12 have carried out their next operation.
  • the bending mechanism 28 comprises a bending mandrel 29 which, as shown in FIG. 2, is divided into two parts within the plane of the link to be bent.
  • suitable driving means not shown, which are controlled by the drive shaft 22, the part 29' of mandrel 29 may be moved in one direction and the other part 29 is further provided with a recess 59 of a shape corresponding to that of the curved part of pin 25, and with a groove 30 which extends transversely to recess 59 and is adapted to receive the chain link 27 which has been previously produced.
  • tongs may also be turned about their longitudinal axis by means of a rack 63 which meshes with a gear rim 64' on the supporting part 32' and is movable back and forth in stationary guide means 65 (see FIG. 2) by a cam plate 64 which is mounted on a shaft 67 which is connected to drive shaft 22 by miter gears 66.
  • the turning tongs 32 are opened so as to release the chain link 27 which was previously held by them.
  • the connecting rod '62 then retracts the turning tongs which are then turned by rack 63 about an angle of Mandrel 29 is combined with a die 33 into a single unit which may be removed entirely from the bending mechanism if it is to be exchanged by another.
  • This die 33 is provided with a guide groove 34 which is located within a plane which extends parallel to the plane in which the two ends of pin 25 are moved during the bending operation.
  • the shape of guide groove 34 depends upon the desired shape of the chain links to be bent.
  • a pair of guide rollers 35 engage each of which is mounted on one end of an axle pin 36 or 37, respectively.
  • Pin 36 is mounted on the bifurcated end of a bending lever 38 which is curved in the direction toward the holding element 31, and pin 37 is mounted on the corresponding curved and bifurcated end of a bending lever 39.
  • the other end of each of these levers 38 and 39 is pivotably mounted on a slide member 40 or 41, respectively, which is slidable along guideways 68.
  • both slide members are controlled by a pair of cam plates 42 and 43 which are mounted on drive shaft 22 and each of which has a continuous cam groove in one side thereof into which a guide roller 69 or 70 engages which is rotatably mounted on slide member 40 or 41, respectively.
  • a bending roller 44 which is provided with a peripheral groove of a curvature in accordance with the diameter of pin is rotatably mounted on pin 36 or 37 between the two arms of the bifurcated end of each bending lever 38 or 39, respectively.
  • FIG. 3 shows particularly with reference to the bending lever 39 that between the bending roller 44 and one arm of the bifurcated end of the bending lever a roller 45 is mounted on pin 37.
  • This roller 45 is adapted to roll along a guideway 46 which faces the mandrel 29 and is provided on a guide element 47 which is secured to the die 33. Since guide rollers and rollers 45 have the same diameter, the curved surfaces of guideway 46 and of the side wall 34' of guide groove 34 although spaced from each other coincide with each other.
  • guideway 46 only begins and ends at the two edges 48 which are disposed substantially within the same plane as the straight part 34" of the side wall of guide groove 34 which is adjacent to mandrel 29. This is necessary to permit the conveying tongs 26 to open wtihout interference in the bending mechanism 28. Rollers 45 therefore do not become effective until slide members and 41 have been moved for a certain distance toward the mandrel 29 and until guide rollers 35 have been moved within guide groove 34 beyond the crests of the two curved sections of guide groove 34 toward its straight central section. However, during the further bending operation, guide rollers engage upon guideway 46 and support the two axle pins 36 and 37 on both sides of the bending rollers 44. This reduces the wear upon the bending mechanism and upon the bearings of its movable parts considerably and it increases the period during which the parts which may be affected by wear will remain fully effective. This, of course, is also of importance for producing links of very accurate dimensions.
  • Guide groove 34 and guideway 46 are made of such a shape that the bending rollers 44 will bend the pin Without subjecting the mandrel 29 to a high strain.
  • the two slide members 40 and 41 will be moved synchronously from the position as shown in FIG. 1 in the direction of the arrows 49.
  • the slide member 40 will be further moved in the direction of the arrow 49, while the other slide member 41 will be temporarily stopped because during this section of the cycle of operations roller 70 will run along a section of the groove in cam plate 43 which extends concentrically to the drive shaft 22.
  • the connecting rod 62 will then shift the turning tongs 32 toward the mandrel until they can grip the last-bent chain link.
  • cam plate 60 will retract the holding element 31. Due to the weight of the chain suspended thereon, link 27 will then drop so far as the last bent link permits. Subsequently, the upper part 29 and the lower part 29' of the mandrel will move so far upwardly or downwardly, respectively, that the link may be passed through the gap between the two parts of the mandrel,
  • the turning tongs 32 are then retracted and will thereby take the link which they have gripped to a position in which it is turned about an angle of and thus to a position in which link 27 was pre viously located.
  • the two parts 29' and 29 of the mandrel are again moved into engagement with each other.
  • the connecting rod 62 then again moves the turning tongs 32 forwardly until both arms of the link which are held by these tongs but are not as yet welded together lie within the groove 30 of mandrel 29.
  • the bending mechanism 28 is then ready for the insertion of the next pin.
  • FIGS. 7 and 8 illustrate a modification of the apparatus as previously described which permits the angular roofshaped ends of each pin to be made of a trapezoidal shape.
  • the severing mechanism is for this purpose designed so that the cutting edges of the two notching blades 110 and 112 will not penetrate into the rod material 108 up to its center but only so far as to be spaced at a certain distance from each other which, as indicated in FIG. 8, may amount, for example, to approximately one fourth of the diameter of rod 108 from which pins 125 are to be severed. This distance may be varied by means of setscrews 111 and 112'. Further screws 172 which extend through the blades 111 and 112 into the levers 114 and 115 are adapted to lock the blades in the desired positions on these levers.
  • the rake or cutting angle of these blades may be slightly larger than that of blades 11 and 12, even if the maximum width of the notches produced in both apparatus is equal.
  • Such a larger rake angle of the blades 111 and 112 is, of course, of advantage insofar as the wear upon the blades and the danger of their breakage is reduced.
  • the apparatus according to FIG. 7 is provided with a twoarmed pressure lever 173 which is pivotable about a pin 174 which is located between the drive shaft carrying the cam plate 107 and the eccentric 121, and the rod 108 and extends parallel to the axes of this shaft and rod.
  • One end of this lever 173 acts by a pin 173 upon the jaw 126 of the conveying tongs 126 transversely to the longitudinal direction of pin 125 and substantially in the longitudinal direction of the cutting edges of the two blades 111 and 112. Tongs 126 will grip the pin 125 directly adjacent to the blades so that the force which has to be exerted by the pressure lever 173 upon the pin for breaking off the small connecting web only has to be a shearing force.
  • rod 108 aside from being clamped tightly by the press 110 is additionally supported at the other side of blades 111 and 112 by a member 175 which serves as a stationary anvil and is located directly adjacent to the blades so that this end of rod 108 cannot shift and rod 108 will therefore not be bent while the web is being broken off.
  • pressure lever 173 for exerting a pressure upon the jaw 126' of the conveying tongs 126 is produced by a cam 176 which is secured to cam plate 107 and acts upon a roller on the adjacent arm of lever 173. After lever 173 has carried out its pivoting movement as produced by cam 176, the lever will be pivoted back to its original position by a spring, not shown.
  • the operation of pressure lever 173 may also be effected by other suitable driving means, for example, by means of a separate cam plate which may be mounted on the drive shaft.
  • the apparatus as partly illustrated in FIG. 7 may be of the same construction as the apparatus as illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 6c.

  • An apparatus as defined in claim 4 further comprising a pair of slide members, means for reciprocating said slide members, a lever pivotably mounted at one end on each of said slide members, and means for rotatably mounting one of said bending rollers and the associated pair of said guide rollers about a common axis on the other end of said lever.
  • said severing mechanism comprises a pair of wedge-shaped notching blades having cutting edges facing each other, and driving means for reciprocating said blades simultaneously in opposite directions to each other Within a common plane extending transverse to the axis of said rod.
  • said driving means for said blades are adapted to move said blades toward each other so as to penetrate only partly into said rod and to leave a small unsevered connecting web between said rod and said pin, breaking means closely adjacent to and at both sides of said blades, and further driving means for moving said breaking means relative to each other in a direction substantially transverse to the longitudinal direction of said rod and substantially in the longitudinal direction of the cutting edges of said blades for breaking off said web.
  • said breaking means comprise a first stationary element for supporting said rod in a fixed position at one side of and closely adjacent to said blades during the reciprocating movements thereof and a second movable element at the other side of and closely adjacent to said blades and adapted to act upon said pin, said further driving means being adapted to move said second movable element in said substantially transverse direction of said rod and in said substantially longitudinal direction of said cutting edges.
