Definitions

  • the invention relates to apparatuses for cambering a tool of a bending apparatus according to the preamble of claim 1 and claim 2.
  • Such apparatuses serve for adjusting a compensation for the deflection of the upper beam at high loads occurring in a bending apparatus.
  • a known apparatus usually a high number of adjusting elements along the length of the tool are provided which only provide a local support of the tool (see DE-A-17 52 346). Further for adjusting a desired camber all adjusting elements have to be adjusted accurately. As moreover all adjusting elements have a different shape or design and must be made with a relatively high accuracy, the manufacturing costs of the known apparatus are high.
  • EP-0 067 766 discloses an apparatus according to the preamble of claim 1 and claim 2.
  • one of the adjusting wedges is moveable in a direction transverse to their longitudinal direction.
  • actuating means for moving the movable adjusting wedges are required along the length of this wedge.
  • the joining complementary surfaces of the wedges are shaped in a complicated manner.
  • the invention aims to provide apparatuses of this type which are simple and can be made at relatively low cost.
  • one adjusting wedge is mounted stationary and the other adjusting wedge is slidable.
  • both adjusting wedges each consist of two or more adjusting wedge parts connected to each other, wherein the curved complementary surfaces of the subsequent adjusting wedge parts are staggered in vertical direction.
  • the mechanical manufacturing of the adjusting wedges becomes simple if the adjusting wedges are made of a relatively soft steel, wherein the movable surfaces of the adjusting wedge(s) are provided with a bronze layer.
  • the adjusting wedges are mounted on the lower beam and are received in a recess in the lower side of the tool table.
  • Fig. 1 shows a bending apparatus 1 comprising a stationary lower beam 2, on which a tool table 3 is mounted. A die 4 is fixed on the tool table 3.
  • the bending apparatus 1 further comprises an upper beam 5 movable up and down and driven by two cylinder piston assemblies 6.
  • sensors 7 are mounted near the cylinder piston assemblies 6, only one of the sensors being shown in fig. 1.
  • Said sensors 7 are supported by substantially C-shaped supports 8 fully free of the frame of the bending apparatus 1, so that a deformation of the web plates 9 (only one of which is shown in fig. 1) during exertion of high forces does not affect the sensors 7.
  • the upper beam 5 carries a stamp 10 which cooperates with the die 4 for bending a material plate.
  • the stamp 10 or the die 4 With an opposite bending-through is generally indicated as camber. With a correct adjustment of the camber, a straight bending line is obtained during the bending operation.
  • the bending apparatus 1 For adjusting the camber the bending apparatus 1 is provided with a camber apparatus 11 comprising two adjusting wedges 12, 13 disposed upon eachother and further shown in figs. 2-5.
  • the adjusting wedges 12, 13 are mounted on the lower beam 2, wherein a recess 14 is provided in the lower side of the tool table 3, in which recess the adjusting wedges 12, 13 are received.
  • the tool table 3 is connected to the lower beam 2 under spring pressure, for which purpose in the shown embodiment three lateral rods 15 are mounted near the ends of the tool table 3 and in the centre of the lower beam 2, respectively, which lateral rods protrude outwardly of the lower beam 2 on both sides.
  • Draw bolts 16 protrude through each lateral rod 15 on both sides of the lower beam 2, by means of which draw bolts 16 the tool table 3 is fixed, wherein Belleville- washers or cupped spring washers 18 are provided between each bolt head 17 and the lateral rods 15.
  • the adjusting wedges 12, 13 are slidable with respect to eachother in longitudinal direction, in that at the embodiment shown the upper wedge 12 is slidable backward and forward, while the lower adjusting wedge 13 is attached to the lower beam 2.
  • the actuation of the adjusting wedge 12 is provided through a draw/push bolt 19 which is movable backward and forward through a 90° transmission 20 by rotating a shaft 21 of the transmission 20.
  • the shaft 21 can be rotated with a manually operable adjusting wheel or alteratively by means of an electromotor.
  • the adjusting wedges 12, 13 are shown in a neutral position, wherein the upper surface 22 of the adjusting wedge 12 extends parallel to the lower surface of the adjusting wedge 13 and therefore no correction of the bending-through of the upper beam or the stamp 10, respectively, takes place.
  • the upper surface 22 should be provided with a bending-through opposite to the bending-through of the upper beam 5, which opposite bending-through can be indicated as camber curve.
  • the adjusting wedge has been moved maximum to the left, whereby the upper surface 22 has the maximum opposite bending-through, which is indicated strongly exaggerated in fig. 5 by a dashed line 24 with respect to a straight line 25.
  • the maximum bending-through for a length of the adjusting wedges of 3 m is approximately 1 mm.
  • the desired bending-through of the upper surface 22 of the adjusting wedge 12 for compensating the bending-through of the upper beam 5 is obtained in that the joining complementary surfaces 26, 27 in the side view of figs. 4 and 5 has a somewhat S-shaped curved trend, wherein the highest point 28 and the lowest point 29 of the curved surfaces 26, 27 in the neutral position of fig. 4 lies substantially at the location of the respective sensors 7.
  • the trend of the curved surfaces 26, 27 substantially corresponds with the integral of the camber curve 24 shown in fig. 5.
  • both adjusting wedges 12, 13 can for example consist of two interconnected adjusting wedge parts 30, 31 and 32, 33, respectively, wherein the curved complementary surfaces 26, 27 of the subsequent adjusting wedge parts 30, 31 and 32, 33, respectively, are staggered in vertical direction as shown in figs. 6, 7.
  • the described camber apparatus 11 shows the advantage that the adjusting wedges 12, 13 extend along the whole length of the die 4 to be cambered, so that the support of the tool table 3 and thereby of the die 4 is provided along substantially the whole length.
  • the operation of the camber apparatus 11 is very simple. Further the manufacturing of the adjusting wedges 12, 13 is not very complicated so that the manufacturing costs are relatively low.
  • camber apparatus is mounted on the lower beam, it is of course also possible to incorporate the camber apparatus in the upper beam. Further only the lower adjusting wedge 13 or both adjusting wedges 12, 13 could be movable instead of the upper adjusting wedge 12.
  • the adjusting wedges 12, 13 are made of relatively soft steel, whereby the mechanical machining of the curved surfaces 26, 27 is relatively simple.
  • the surfaces 22 and 26 of the movable adjusting wedge 12 are provided with a layer of bronze.
