The description of the invention is merely exemplary and explanatory and should not limit the scope of the protection scope of the present invention.

As is shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the present invention is shown as follows: the present invention relates to a fault detectable sheet body fixed distance conveying and punching assembly, including a frame 1 and a conveying trough seat 2 disposed on the frame 1; a feed trough 3 is disposed in the middle portion of the conveying trough seat 2, and a processing frame 12 is disposed on the conveying trough seat 2; the processing frame 12 is sequentially provided with a punching device 13 and a grinding device 14 matching with the sheet body 4 in the conveying trough seat 2, the frame 1 is disposed with a feed motor 5 and a feed screw 6 cooperating with each other, the feed screw 6 is sleeved with movable feed blocks 7, the movable feed block 7 is connected with a movable feed seat 8, the movable feed seat 8 is provided with a feed lift cylinder 9, the feed lift cylinder 9 is disposed with a feed lift block 10; several feed blocks 11 which can travel along the feed trough 3 are uniformly provided on the feed lift block 10, and on the processing rack 12 is provided a position detecting device 14, which comprises detection lifting cylinder 21 provided on the processing rack 12, under the detecting lifting cylinder 21 is connected the detecting block 22, and the said detecting block is located on the left side of the feeding block 11 on the processing station, to the right of the detecting block 22 is provided an acoustic wave range finder 24. The position detecting device may measure the position of the feeding block on the processing station by lifting the acoustic wave range finders on the position detecting device, and conduct integrity check to the fixed distance feeding part and maintain the entire assembly.

As is shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the width of the detecting block 22 is larger than that of the feeding trough 3; on the lower part of the front and rear side of the detecting block 22 are provided the second contact sensors 25 cooperating with the conveying trough seat 2; to the left side of the detecting block 22 is provided an acoustic wave range finder 24; the two acoustic wave range finders 24 are of the same height, and the distance from the acoustic wave range finder 24 to the bottom of the detecting block 22 is less than the thickness of sheet bodies 4. By designing two acoustic wave range finders, it is possible to measure accurately position of the feeding block on the processing station and that of the previous sheet body on the processing station, to ensure the accuracy of feeding.

As is shown in FIG. 2, the feed block 11 is an L-shaped block, and the length of horizontal portion thereof is consistent with the length of the sheet body; the feed blocks 11 located at the punching station and the grinding station are provided with a discharging opening 28 matching with the punching and grinding portion of the sheet body; the feed lift block 10 is provided with a collect port 29 which is connected with the discharging opening 28; on the movable feeding seat 8 is provided a collection assembly 15 cooperating with the collect port 29. By designing the feeding block, it is possible to support the sheet body, and improve sheet body punching effect; furthermore, with the discharging opening working in cooperation with the collecting device, punched rejects may be collected to avoid any interference with the feeding part.

As is shown in FIG. 3, the detecting block 22 is a right angle block and its horizontal part is located on the upper right side of its vertical part, and the horizontal part of the detecting block 22 is flush with the right side of the vertical part of feed blocks 11; to the lower right end of horizontal part of the detecting block 22 are provided two first contact sensors 23 and the two first contact sensors 23 respectively cooperate with the right and left side of the feed blocks 11 by contact. By the structural design of the position detecting block, it is possible to know whether the height of the feeding blocks is accurate with the first contact sensors and the second contact sensors. If the feed block is too high, adjustment is required to avoid that the sheet body is pressed down to deformation during punching and if the feeding block is too low, good support to the sheet body during punching cannot be achieved. Furthermore, by utilizing two first contact sensors, it is possible to know whether thickness of the vertical parts of the feeding blocks is qualified.

As is shown in FIGS. 2 and 5, the punching device may include a punching cylinder 26 provided on the processing rack 12; the lower end of the punching cylinder 26 is connected to the punching pressing block 31 fitting the sheet body 4 on the conveying trough seat 2; the punching mounting slot 32 is provided on the lower part of the punching pressing block 31 upward, and the punching mounting slot 32 shares the same axis with the discharging opening 28 provided on the feed blocks 11 on the processing station; in the punching mounting slot 32 is provided a punching head 27 fitting the sheet body 4. The punching pressing block can press and hold the sheet body in position, and promise that no shaking will occur during punching.

As is shown in FIG. 5, the punching head 27 may include a punching lifting cylinder 33 provided in the punching mounting slot 32 vertically; a rotary punching motor 34 is connected to the lower part of the punching lifting cylinder 33; the lower end of the rotary punching motor 34 is connected to a punching bit 35 and the lower part of the punching bit 35 is annular cutter. By the annular cutter cooperating with the rotary punching motor, a rotary cutting can be achieved to ensure good performance of punching.

As is shown in FIG. 6, the collecting device 15 includes a collecting frame 37 provided on the movable feeding seat 8; to the outside of the collecting frame 37 is sleeved a material blocking frame 38 which may move upward and downward; the left and right side boards of the material blocking frame 38 are vertical plates; the front and rear side boards of the material blocking frame 38 are vertical plates and the upper board of the material blocking frame 38 is a slanting plate which tilts outward and upward; on the movable feeding seat 8 are provided collecting frame fixing blocks 39 matching the material blocking frame 38 by gripping bolts 40; when the collecting frame fixing blocks 39 hold the collecting frame 37 in position, the material blocking frame 38 is provided on the upper side of the collecting frame fixing block 39; the left and right side boards of the material blocking frame 38 are higher than the front and rear side boards, and on the feed lifting block 10 are provided positioning slots 41 cooperating with the left and right side boards of the material blocking frame 38. With the delicate design of material blocking frame together with the collecting frame fixing blocks, good material stopping effect can be achieved, in the meantime, the left and right side boards of the material blocking frame can be plugged into the feeding lifting block, so during feeding, the collecting frame can be fed together, and the material blocking frame can act to synchronize movement of the feeding block and the movable feeding seat to facilitate accurate horizontal movement of the feed lifting block.

The operation of the assembly is as follows:

Debug the device first, then put the iron sheet into the left part of the feeding slot 3 on the feeding slot seat 2; rotate the feeding screw 6 by the feeding motor 5, thereby drive the movable feeding seat 8 to move to the left, thereby the feeding block 11 is moved to the left of the sheet body 5; the feeding lift cylinder 9 drives the feeding lift block 10 to move up, thereby the feed block 11 is raised and vertical portion thereof passing through the feeding slot 3; the feed motor 5 is rotated reversely to drive the feed screw 6 to rotate reversely, thereby drive the feeding block 11 to move to the right; during that, the sheet body 4 is touched and is driven to move to the right by a certain distance to complete a fixed distance movement. Subsequently, the sheet body is repeatedly placed and moved for a fixed distance, the first sheet body will be fed to the punching station by the feeding block 11 matching the punching station during the process of feeding for a fixed distance; the punching cylinder 26 may drive the punching pressing block 31 to press and hold the sheet body in position, drive the punching bit 35 to rotate with the rotary punching motor 34 and drive the punching bit 35 downwards with the punching lifting cylinder 33, furthermore the annular cutter under the punching bit 35 may cut the sheet body 4, and stop rotation. The punching lifting cylinder 33 may drive the punching bit 35 to press down and finish the punching process. The punched reject may be collected from the discharging opening 28 to the collecting frame 37 through the collection opening 29.

The above process may repeat on the following sheet bodies. The punched product may be driven by the subsequent feed block to the right side of the feeding trough 3, and taken away. In the whole punching process, the detecting lifting cylinder 21 may drive the detecting block 22 down at appropriate intervals. Whether the feeding height of the feed blocks 11 is proper can be detected by checking whether the first contact sensors and the second contact sensors generate inductive signals. If the first contact sensors 23 generate a signal but the second contact sensors don't, the feed blocks may be too high, and the total assembly needs commissioning. If the first contact sensors 23 do not generate the signal and the second contact sensors do, the feed block may be too low, and the total assembly needs commissioning. If both the first contact sensors and the second contact sensors generate signals, the feed blocks are in the appropriate height. Then measure the distance with the acoustic wave range finders. If the results obtained by the right acoustic wave range finder agree with the theoretical value, feeding position of the feeding block 11 on the processing station is accurate and otherwise, inaccurate. If the results obtained by the left acoustic wave range finder agree with the theoretical value, the feeding of the previous processing station is accurate. If not, the feeding of the previous processing station is not accurate or the size of the sheet body is not correct, reviewing and commissioning is necessary. In this way, the above operation can be monitored and maintained in real time. And when the reject material in the collecting frame 37 reaches a certain amount, the collecting frame fixing block 39 may be disconnected by removing the gripping bolts 40, and the material blocking frame 38 will fall off. Then the collecting frame 37 and material blocking frame 38 may be removed to finish cleaning.
