The first bending tool was moved forward to cut the wire into a predetermined length between the die and the base, and the wire was pressed against the core and both ends of the wire were pushed in parallel to both sides forward of the core, and bent. Further, a pair of second bending tools provided at the front of the core mold so as to be able to move forward and backward opposingly are moved to approach each other, and both ends of the wire rod which is pushed forward and both sides of the core by the first bending tool. The wire is bent deeply inward so as to be wound around the core, and an opening slightly larger than the wire rod is formed between both ends of the wire. After the core is pulled out of the bent wire, the wire is fed to the feed mechanism end by the feed mechanism. Transfer to the secondary processing position set in the section, and bend first at this transfer end point The chain ring of the chain end that has been suspended in a suspended state at the secondary processing position enters the opening, and this state is held at the end of the feed mechanism, and a pair of third rings provided so as to be able to move forward and backward opposingly. The two ends of the wire are bent deeply into the chain ring at the chain end to form a chain ring, and then the chain is pulled up by one length by the pulling mechanism.
There has been proposed a method of manufacturing a chain by repeatedly performing an operation of rotating a degree to hold a newly formed chain end chain ring at a predetermined standby position. (For example, as a prior art,

By the way, in the conventional chain manufacturing apparatus as described above, at the primary processing position set in front of the die, both ends of the wire are almost completely moved by the first bending tool with respect to the core. Pressing and bending forward at a right angle, and then bending the pair of second bending tools inwardly and inwardly so as to wind both ends of the wire around the core by moving the pair of second bending tools in opposition, also bending at the primary processing position The finished wire is transported to the secondary processing position, where a pair of third bending tools are moved in opposition to each other to bend the both ends of the wire further deeply and abut both ends of the wire to form a chain ring. However, since both ends of the wire are simultaneously bent, the residual stress formed on the chain ring and remaining on the chain ring is increased, which not only affects the strength of the chain, but also affects the surface of the chain ring.

Further, the core mold used is required to have sufficient strength against external pressure when both ends of the wire are simultaneously bent. For this reason, in the production of a chain in a form that uses a relatively thick wire made of a hard material and reduces the center hole of the chain ring,
Due to the strength of the core mold, the size of the chain, particularly the size of the hole, may be limited. Further, the first, second, and third bending tools used for bending the both ends of the wire, and the core dies and the like which are disposed so as to be able to protrude and retract at the primary processing position, are all connected to a drive mechanism and have a timing. In order to operate, these operation mechanisms are complicated, the number of components required for forming a chain ring is increased, and the handling of the device requires skill and advanced techniques.

The above-mentioned primary bending mechanism is provided vertically at a side of a wire rod fed out of a die, and has a fixed core type having a wire passing gap formed between fixing bases, and a primary core type opposed to the fixed core type. It is provided with a movable bending tool that is provided to be able to move forward and backward, and that cuts the wire fed from the die and presses one end of the wire against a fixed core to bend it into a U-shape. preferable. With this configuration, after the wire is cut by the forward movement of the movable bending tool, one end of the wire is securely bent into a U-shape in such a manner that it is pushed into the insertion recess provided in the bending tool together with the fixed core mold. Then, the wire rod which has been released from the bending force by the retreat of the bending tool can fall under the fixed core mold by its own weight and can be placed on the fixed base. Therefore, the transfer to the secondary processing position by the feed mechanism need only be performed by linearly moving the wire on the fixed base toward the secondary processing position in such a manner as to push the bent portion of the wire.

[0010] With this configuration, the end of the wire is bent into a U-shape by being pushed together with the movable core into an insertion recess provided in the fixed bending tool by the forward movement of the movable core. At this time, as the end of the wire becomes deeper, the bent end of the wire inserted into the chain ring at the chain end first moves away from the fixed base by dragging the chain ring at the chain end, and the end of the wire is a movable core type. The bending work proceeds while being placed on the receiving seats on both sides and supported horizontally, and the bending work is completed, and the two ends of the wire abut to form a new chain ring.

[0011] Thereafter, when the movable core die retreats and the chain is pulled up by a part length during the retreat, the newly formed chain ring comes off from the movable core die and is moved between the movable core die and the fixed base end. And the movable core returns to the standby position. Here, when the chain is rotated by 90 degrees, the newly formed chain ring, like the chain ring at the end of the previous chain, has its upper half protruding above the fixing base and attached to the end surface of the fixing base. The hole is then made to stand by in the direction in which the bent end portion of the wire rod to be transferred on the fixed base enters. Therefore, in the bending process of the end of the wire at the secondary processing position for assembling to the chain, the wire is to be incorporated into the chain ring of the chain end in the suspended state. Swing is free, and the chain ring at the chain end is free to move in the space formed behind the movable core mold. Therefore, the movement is reliably performed without being affected by the existence of the chain.
