The driving wheel and the driven member are oppositely and rotatably mounted on the bottom plate, the fixed bracket is positioned adjacent to the driven member and fixed with the conveying belt.
Abstract:
A manufacturing machine for processing a product includes a frame, a processing device, an input conveyor belt, an output conveyor belt, two work-stations, two manipulators, and two work-stations. The processing device processes the product. The input conveyor belt transfers the product to the processing device. The output conveyor belt transfers the product after the product being processed. Two work-stations load the product. The two manipulators take the product from the input conveyor belt to the two work-stations, and take the product from the two work-stations to the output conveyor.
Abstract:
In a production line small parts or conductor ends are transported by workpiece carriers from work station to work station in a production direction. First and second groups of work stations. First and second transfer devices move the workpiece carriers from work station to work station in the groups. An interchange device is connected between the two transfer devices, the first transfer device handing over the workpiece carriers to the interchange device and the interchange device feeding the workpiece carriers to the second transfer device. The interchange device serves as an adapter for different workpiece carrier spacings (pitch dimensions) of the first and second groups. The workpiece carriers are maintained in positive positions upon the transfer devices and the interchange device, each of which is independently driven to allow synchronism to be accomplished when a carrier is transferred to or from the interchange device.
Abstract:
An apparatus for positioning a workpiece carrier in a machining station includes at least one positioning device. The workpiece carrier is movable on a rail system and one or more machining stations are arranged along the rail system for machining a workpiece arranged on the workpiece carrier. The at least one positioning device is arranged in an area of the machining station and has fixtures for positioning and high-precision retention of the workpiece carrier with respect to a stationary reference surface. The positioning device further includes fixtures for decoupling the workpiece carrier from the rail system, and a deceleration and acceleration device for the workpiece carrier.
Abstract:
A lathe or each of lathes of a machining system comprises a head stock, which is transferred on a rail mechanism. The rail mechanism includes a vertically guiding rail which is mounted on a horizontally guiding rail. A turret has a turret support which has a pair of turret support attaching surfaces. The turret is attached with either of turret support attaching surfaces. A extruded horizontally guiding rail is located between both the bed bodies, each of which is included in each of the lathes. The extruded horizontally guiding rail is identical with a connecting guiding rail which connects the one horizontally guiding rail of the one lathe with the other horizontally guiding rail of the other lathe. A work stocking means is located between the bed bodies. A reversing means for reversing works is provided with the head stock.
Abstract:
There is disclosed an apparatus for performing conditioning operations including cutting operations such as beveling for welding, chamfering to aid in starting thread cutting, thread cutting and lead cutting and inspecting operations such as bevel or chamfer inspection and threads inspection on the ends of seamless steel pipes or round bars transferred from the preceding forming stage such as the rolling stage. The apparatus comprises a plurality of end processing multifunction machines each capable of performing by itself the above-mentioned processing operations and a plurality of end inspecting multifunction machines each capable of performing by itself the above-mentioned inspecting operations and these machines are arranged on one side or both sides of a single-line transverse transfer system. Each steel pipe or round bar to be processed is subjected to the end processing operations at a single fixed position and to the end inspecting operations also at a single fixed position.
Abstract:
This invention deals with an apparatus for transporting workpieces between the chucks of various machining stations and for centering the workpieces relative to the chucks, having at least one spider that is movable step-by-step about a trunnion and whose arms are longitudinally adjustable relative to the trunnion, each arm having at its free end a workpiece carrier that is rotatably mounted about its own axis of rotation.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a machine tool as well as to a method for operating the machine tool. The machine tool comprises a workpiece carrier (20) that can be incrementally rotated about an incremental advance axis (22) and has several carrier sides (25). A first workpiece chuck unit (26) for holding a workpiece in a first position (P1) and a second workpiece chuck unit (27) for holding a workpiece in a second position (P2) are arranged on each carrier side (25). In each angular position or incremental advance position of the workpiece carrier (20), one carrier side (25) is in a loading station (30), one carrier side (25) is in an unloading station 31, and the respectively other carrier sides (25) are in respectively one work station (32). A workpiece changing device (34) is provided, said device moving a partially machined workpiece (16a) out of the first position (P1) in the unloading station (31) into the second position (P2) in the loading station. The position change of the partially machined workpiece (16a) preferably also takes place during the incremental advance movement of the workpiece carrier (20). Preferably, the partially machined workpiece (16a) can be turned in doing so.
