BACKGROUND

1. Field of the Invention


Example embodiments of the present invention relates in general to the field of a rotary punching apparatus, and more specifically to a rotary punching apparatus which can perform punching on a desired position without regard to the punching position on a sheet which becomes an object of punching and simultaneously enable a shape on the sheet to have the continuity and a uniformly punched surface.


2. Description of the Related Art


In general, a punching apparatus is an apparatus for punching a predetermined part such as pictures, cards, letter papers and the like (hereinafter referred to as “sheet”) and can perform punching in a simple circular shape so as to keep papers and exhibit an aesthetic sense to the sheet by punching the sheet in various shapes such as flower patterns for decoration.


A conventional punching apparatus will be concretely explained with reference to FIG. 1, the conventional punching apparatus includes a punching member 101 provided with a punching blade having a pattern of a specific shape, an upper jig 111 having a guide hole 112 which the punching blade is penetrated, a lower jig 113 having a punching hole 114 which the punching blade is also penetrated, and a base 121 configured to support the lower jig 113. Further, since the punching is performed only when the punching blade 102 of the punching member 101, the guide hole 112 and the punching hole 114 are accurately aligned in a straight line, ends of the upper jig 111 and the lower jig 113 are formed in a form of “custom character” in a body by a coupling part 115. Thus, a fixed aperture is formed between the upper jig 111 and the lower jig 113, and the aperture is constructed so as to insert a sheet to be punched into the aperture.

As illustrated in FIGS. 2 to 5, the rotary punching apparatus 200 includes a punching member 210, an upper jig 220, an upper plate 230, a lower jig 240 and a lower plate 250.


The punching member 210 protrudes and forms a pressurization plate 211 having a semi-circular shape in a form of a thin plate, a punching blade 212 which directs downwardly in a lower end of the pressurization plate 211 and has a pattern of a specific shape, and a spring holder 213 in a hemisphere shape at a regular interval in a position which an interference with the punching blade 212 is not generated in a lower end of the pressurization plate 211.


The upper jig 220 penetrates and forms a guide hole 221 having the pattern of the specific shape opposite to the punching blade 212 inside and couples a spring 224 between the spring holders 213 and 223 by locating a spring holder 213 opposite to the spring holder 213 of the punching member 210, without being interfered with the guide hole 221. As a result, the upper jig 220 may support elastically the punching member 210, and insert and fix a seating plate 222 into a seating hole 231a of an upper rotation plate 231 by protruding a seating plate 222 in a lower end of the upper jig 220.


The upper plate 230 is formed in a cylinder shape, is provided with two insertion holes 230a, which penetrate a side of the upper plate 230, in a position symmetrical to each other, and enables a guide unit 238 to be inserted and fixed to inside of the insertion hole 230a. The upper plate 230 is seated on a guide groove 230b by forming the guide grove 230b centered in a circumference inside thereof, and provided with the upper rotation plate 231 fixed and coupled with the upper plate 230 by a pressurization plate 237. Eight magnets 233 and 234 are fixed and formed on a lower surface of the upper plate 230 at a regular interval.


The magnet 233 having N-polarity and the magnet 234 having S-polarity can form the magnetic force contrary to each other by being crossed and arranged to each other by four.


The guide unit 238 is composed of a fixing body 238a, an elastic body 238b which elastically supports in an inner direction of the upper plate 230 by supporting elastically the fixing body 238a, and a fixing plate 238c which enables the elastic body 238b to be fixed to the insertion hole 230a.


The upper rotation plate 231 penetrates and forms the seating hole 231a in a semi-circular shape inside thereof, and is provided with 4 rotation units 232 along a side of an upper surface of the upper rotation plate 231. The upper rotation plate 231 is formed by penetrating a lower surface of the upper rotation plate 231 from an upper surface so as to form 4 magnets 235 and 236 which are respectively crossed and arranged into N-polarity and S-polarity.


Further, the upper rotation plate 231 has 12 fixing grooves 231c along the circumference so as to be engaged with the guide unit 238.


The rotation unit 232 is composed of a bearing 232a, a support body 232b and a guide hole 232c, and formed on the upper rotation plate 231. Additionally, the rotation unit 232 enables the upper rotation plate 231 to be rotated along the guide groove 230b in a state that the bearing 232a is seated to the guide groove 230b on the upper plate 230, and prevents the bearing 232a from being separated from the upper rotation plate 231 through the support body 232b and the guide hole 232c.


The bearing 232a may selectively use any one of a ball bearing or a roller bearing.


Further, though it isn't illustrated in drawings, according to another example embodiment of the present invention, the upper rotation plate 231 may be rotated along the guide groove 230b, by projecting and forming a plurality of hemisphere protrusions (not shown) on an upper and a lower surface of the upper rotation plate 231 and locating the protrusions in the guide groove 230b.


The lower jig 240 is provided with a seating plate 242 in the same shape as the upper jig 220 in a lower end. A punching hole 241, which penetrates an upper surface of the lower jig 240, is formed as the same pattern as the punching blade 212.


The lower plate 250 is symmetrically corresponded to the upper plate 230 upward and downward, and the configuration is the same as the upper plate 230.


Further, the lower plate 250 locates 8 magnets 253 and 254 opposite to the magnets 233 and 234, which are located on a lower surface of the upper plate 230, on an upper surface. The S-polarity magnet 253 is located in the N-polarity magnet 233 and the N-polarity magnet 254 is located in the S-polarity magnet 234, thereby enabling the magnets to be aligned in a fixed position due to respective magnetic force.


The lower rotation plate 251 is the same configuration as the upper rotation plate 31 and is located to enable magnets 255 and 256 penetrated and inserted inside thereof to be symmetrical to the magnets 235 and 236 of the upper rotation plate 231. Also, the lower rotation plate 251 enables the magnets 235, 236, 255 and 256 to be aligned in the fixed position due to N-polarity and S-polarity. Accordingly, the upper rotation plate 231 can be engaged with the lower rotation plate 251.


The coupling connection of the present invention will now be explained.


Since the upper plate 230 and the lower plate 250 have the same configuration, the coupling relationship of the upper plate 230 will be only described in detail.


After the magnets 235 and 236 are fixed by crossing and arraying the N-polarity and the S-polarity on the upper rotation plate 231, a plurality of the bearings 232a are inserted into the guide hole 232c of the upper rotation plate 231.


In case that the bearing 232a is inserted so as to be located in the guide groove 230b of the upper plate 230, the upper rotation plate 231 is located on the horizontal line with the insertion hole 230a of the upper plate 230 and has a shape which the guide unit 238 pressurizes a side of the upper rotation plate 231.


In this state, in case that the pressurization plate 237 is forcibly put and inserted into the upper plate 230, the bearing 232a is located between the guide groove 230b of the upper plate 230 and the guide groove 236a of the pressurization plate 237. Also, the bearing 232a may enable the bearing 232a to be smoothly slid between the guide grooves 230b and 236a.


Further, a punching may be performed by inserting and fixing the upper jig 220 to the seating hole 231a of the upper rotation plate 231, and the lower jig 240 on the lower rotation plate 251 of the lower plate 250 in the same manner, and enabling patterns of the upper jig 220 and the lower jig 240 to be located on a vertical line.


Further, since the fixing body 238a of the guide unit 238 gives pressure to the upper rotation plate 231, the upper rotation plate 231 may be operated at a regular rotation angle by enabling the fixing groove 231c to be located in the fixing body 238a, when the upper rotation plate 231 is rotated and operated.



FIG. 6 is a plan view illustrating a rotary punching apparatus according to a second embodiment of the present invention.


Referring to FIG. 6, the fixing body 238a may be seated to the fixing groove 231c of the upper rotation plate 231 through its own elastic restoration force by being composed of an elastic piece 238a′ which is formed with the upper plate 230 in a body.


Further, though this is not illustrated in drawings, in case that the punching member (not shown) is formed in a fan shape at an angle of 30°˜60°, the shape of the upper jig and the lower jig which are engaged with the punching member is also the same shape as the punching member and is attached and detached to/from the seating hole of the rotation plate, so that the pattern of various shapes can be only punched by replacing the upper jig and the lower jig, without replacing the plate.


Hereinafter, an operation state of the rotary punching apparatus according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 7 to 10.


Referring to FIGS. 7 to 10, after a seat (S) is located between the upper plate 250 and the upper plate 230, the magnets 233 and 234 of the upper plate 230 and magnets 253 and 254 of the lower plate 250 may be located in the same line and aligned to each other. Further, in case that the magnets 235 and 236 of the upper rotation plate 231 and the magnets 255 and 256 of the lower rotation plate 251 are aligned to each other in the same manner, the punching member 210 may be vertically operated upward and downward by enabling the guide hole 221 of the upper jig 220 and the punching hole 241 of the lower jig 240 to be corresponded to each other.


Further, in case that the pressurization plate 211 of the punching member 210 is pressurized, the punching blade 212 moves along the guide hole 221 and a cutting surface is formed by cutting the seat (S). If the pressure of the pressurization plate 211 is removed, the pressurization plate 211 goes upward due to elastic force of the spring 224 and the punching member is restored into the original position. In case of being rotated as much as desired in a restored state, the rotation plates 231 and 251 may be rotated and operated just as much as an angle which the fixing groove 231c is formed, and thus punch accurately a pattern of a continuous shape as much as a rotated and operated angle in a desired position or a symmetrical position.


Further, by commonly applying to the upper plate 230 and the lower plate 250, and forming the punching member 210, the upper jig 220 and the lower jig 240 in a body, only the punching member 210, the upper jig 220 and the lower jig 240 are replaced in case that the pattern is replaced into the pattern of the specific shape, thereby being capable of using economically patterns of various shapes.



FIG. 11 is an exploded perspective view illustrating the rotary punching apparatus according to a third embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 12 is a partial expanded cross-sectional view illustrating a position correction member of the rotary punching apparatus illustrated in FIG. 11.


Referring to FIGS. 11 or 12, the punching apparatus 300 is composed of an upper jig 311 on which a specific pattern of a shape is formed, a punching member 310 including a pressurization plate 313 which a punching blade 312 is formed in the same shape as the pattern of the upper jig 311, an upper rotation plate 320 configured to enable the punching member to be coupled, and an upper plate 330 configured to enable the upper rotation plate 320 to be rotated and coupled. Further, the punching apparatus 300 is composed of a lower jig 340 which a punching hole 341 is formed in the same shape as the pattern formed in the punching member 310, a lower rotation plate 350 coupled with the lower jig 340 and the lower plate 360 coupled with a lower rotation plate 350.


The punching member 310 directs downward to the pressurization plate 311 and a lower end of the pressurization plate 311, penetrates and forms the punching blade 312 having the pattern of the specific shape, and is coupled with the upper jig 311 in which a guide hole (not shown) having the same pattern as the punching blade 312 is formed.


The upper rotation plate 320 penetrates a coupling hole 320a in the same shape as the pattern of the punching member 310 so as to enable the punching member 310 to be coupled, and forms a plurality of grooves 321 of the hemisphere shape which are sink inward on a lower surface of the upper rotation plate 320.

Further, the upper plate 330 is provided with a plurality of magnets 332 at a regular interval along a lower part of the circumference of the upper plate 330.


It is desirable that the magnets 323 and 332 respectively have the polarity opposite to that of a magnet as described below. For example, in case that the magnets 323 and 332 have N-polarity, the mutual position may be set due to a mutual magnetic force by enabling magnets 353 and 362 located in the lower part to have S-polarity. Further, a fixed position may be accurately aligned due to a position correction unit 351.


The lower jig 340 is provided with the same punching hole 341 as shape of specific pattern of the punching member 310.

It is desirable that the position correction member 352 is formed in the same shape as the groove 321 so as to be seated to the groove 321.


For example, as illustrated in FIG. 12, the groove 321 is formed in a hemisphere shape, and the seating groove 352a is formed in a position opposite to the groove 321 on an upper surface of the lower rotation plate 350. Then, if the position correction member 352 is inserted and coupled so as to be protruded to an upper part on the seating groove 352a, the position correction member 352 may be rotated and operated inside of the seating groove 352a.


At this case, the protruded position correction member 352 is practicable to some degree of preventing the separation from the seating groove 352a. The punching blade 312 provided on the upper plate 330 and the punching hole 341 provided on the lower plate 360 are firstly set to be in position of the magnets 332 and 362, in which the seat (S) is located in the midst, and is aligned on the mutual fixed position by the position correction member 352 and the groove 321.


Further, the position correction member 352 may make it possible to accurately align the mutual fixed position by the magnetic force of the magnet 324 by providing the magnet 324 on a vertical line of the groove 321.


The lower plate 360 has the same configuration as the upper plate 330, and may be aligned on the mutual fixed position by the upper plate 330 and the magnet 362.

Referring to FIG. 13, the upper part of a position correction member 352′ is formed in a hemisphere shape and a lower part is formed in a warhead of a cylinder shape. In case that the lower part of the position correction member 352′ is pressed by an elastic body 351′ in a state of being inserted into a seating groove 352a′, the position correction member 352′ is protruded into the upper part of the lower rotation plate 350 and aligned to the groove 321 of the upper rotation plate 320.


The position correction members 352 and 352′ may be used of a nonmetal materials or metal materials. Preferably, the metal materials can be used so as to be arrayed by the magnet 324.


Further, the position correction members 352, 352′ are composed of magnets and have the polarity crossed to that of the magnet 324, so that the upper rotation plate 320 and the lower rotation plate 350 may be aligned in the fixed position.



FIG. 14 is a partial expanded plan view illustrating a punching state of a sheet according to the punching apparatus of the present invention.


As illustrated in FIG. 14, the punching member 310 includes a guide blade 314 located in an outer of the punching blade 312. The pattern of the punching blade 312 is rotated by the upper rotation plate 320 and the lower rotation plate 350 and punched with continuity at a fixed angle. At this time, it is desirable that the guide blade 314 is formed smaller than a punched surface 312a so that a punched surface 314a can be offset by the punched surface 312a punched by the guide blade 314.



FIG. 15 is an exploded perspective view illustrating the rotary punching apparatus according to a fifth embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 16 is a cross-sectional view illustrating an align structure of the rotary punching apparatus illustrated in FIG. 15, and FIG. 17 is a partial expanded cross-sectional view illustrating an align structure of the rotary punching apparatus illustrated in FIG. 16.


Referring to FIGS. 15 to 17, the punching apparatus 400 includes an upper jig 411 on which a pattern of specific shape is formed, a punching member 410 including a pressurization plate 413 which a punching blade 412 is formed in the same shape as the pattern of the upper jig 411, an upper rotation plate 420 configured to enable the punching member to be coupled, and an upper plate 430 configured to enable the upper rotation plate to be rotated and coupled. Further, the punching apparatus 400 includes a lower jig 440 which a punching hole 441 is formed in the same shape as the pattern formed in the punching member 410, a lower rotation plate 450 coupled with the lower jig 440, and a lower plate 460 coupled with the lower rotation plate 450.

It is desirable that the magnets 423 and 432 respectively have the polarity opposite to that of a magnet as described below. For example, if the magnets 423 and 432 have N-polarity, magnets 453 and 462 located in the lower part have S-polarity, so that the mutual position may be set due to the mutual magnetic force. Further, a fixed position may be accurately aligned by a position correction unit 451.

When a light is radiated by inserting and fixing the light source 452b to the seating groove 452a after the seating groove 452a is formed on the lower rotation plate 450, the light is radiated to the upper part through the light projection hole 425 formed on the upper rotation plate 420. At this case, when the light radiated from the seating groove 452a by making the size of the seating groove 452a and the light projection hole 425 the same is transmitted, a shadow of the seating groove 452a is projected on the seat (S). In case that the projected shadow is identified with the light projection hole 425 using the light projection plate 424 of the light projection hole 425, the upper rotation plate 420 and the lower rotation plate 450 may be aligned in a fixed position.


Further, a more accurate align effect may be obtained by forming mixed lines 426a and 426b which two lines are crossed each other on the seating groove 452a and the light projection plate 424.


The light source 452b may use anything that can be distinguished on the light projection plate 424 by projecting a generated light through the seat S. It is desirable to use a lamp.
