Description

L'invention se rapporte à une tête de profilage équipée de moyens anti-flexion pour former, par roulage, des plaques de tôle ou équivalent présentant un certain profil, par exemple en U, en V ou autre selon le préambule de la revendication 1. L'invention concerne également les machines équipées de telles têtes de profilage.The invention relates to a profiling head equipped with anti-bending means for forming, by rolling, plates of sheet metal or equivalent having a certain profile, for example U, V or other according to the preamble of claim 1. The invention also relates to machines equipped with such profiling heads.

Dans une ligne de profilage d'une machine à profiler, la tôle est progressivement formée par passage à travers des têtes de profilage équipées de cassettes de roulage. Les machines de profilage comportent une ou plusieurs lignes de profilage jusqu'à atteindre le profil souhaité. Pour chaque ligne, la tôle est déroulée à partir d'une bobine, formée par passage à travers les cassettes de roulage des têtes de profilage, puis recueillie sur un convoyeur de sortie équipé de cisaille de découpe en plaques et enfin empilée. En sortie, des cintreuses peuvent être prévues pour cintrer les plaques de tôle profilées. Des équipements électroniques de pilotage des lignes de profilage sont également prévus.In a profiling line of a profiling machine, the sheet is progressively formed by passing through profiling heads equipped with rolling cassettes. The profiling machines comprise one or more profiling lines until the desired profile is reached. For each line, the sheet is unrolled from a reel, formed by passing through the rolls of rolling profiling heads, then collected on an output conveyor equipped with plate cutting shears and finally stacked. At the outlet, bending machines can be provided for bending the shaped sheet metal plates. Electronic equipment for controlling the profiling lines is also provided.

Chaque cassette de roulage des têtes de profilage comporte un jeu de deux arbres parallèles sur lesquels des galets et entretoises sont montés. La tôle est formée par passage entre ces moyens de roulage présentant respectivement un profil complémentaire, les deux arbres étant réglés en distance sur des montants verticaux en fonction des épaisseurs de tôle. Un châssis de support des arbres comportant les montants verticaux et une embase est prévu.Each rolling cassette of the profiling heads comprises a set of two parallel shafts on which rollers and spacers are mounted. The sheet is formed by passing between these rolling means respectively having a complementary profile, the two shafts being adjusted in distance on vertical uprights according to the sheet thicknesses. A support frame for the shafts comprising the vertical uprights and a base is provided.

Afin de réduire les coûts et le poids des têtes de profilage, la tendance actuelle est de diminuer sensiblement le diamètre des arbres de montage et des galets. Cependant, l'utilisation de tels arbres entraînent des problèmes de flexion et de déréglage des arbres du fait de leur déformation suite aux contraintes dynamiques générées par le poids des tôles et par leur avancée dans les lignes de profilage. Le réglage ne peut alors être réalisé que par serrage des bagues de roulement des galets, ce qui provoque dans le temps un effet de creusement des bagues par le travail de l'arbre.In order to reduce the costs and the weight of the profiling heads, the current trend is to substantially reduce the diameter of the mounting shafts and rollers. However, the use of such shafts cause problems of bending and adjustment of the trees due to their deformation due to the dynamic stresses generated by the weight of the sheets and their advancement in the profiling lines. Adjustment can then be achieved by clamping the rollers of the rollers, which causes in time a digging effect of the rings by the work of the shaft.

De plus, les arbres ne sont jamais parfaitement cylindriques et leur faux-rond peut, en rotation, provoquer leur éjection.In addition, the trees are never perfectly cylindrical and their runout may, in rotation, cause their ejection.

Pour remédier à ces problèmes, l'invention prévoit de rendre solidaire le réglage de l'ensemble des arbres et des moyens de formage et de prévoir des moyens d'adaptation en flexion.To remedy these problems, the invention provides to make the adjustment of all shafts and forming means integral and to provide bending adaptation means.

Plus précisément, l'invention a pour objet une tête de profilage comportant au moins une cassette de formage à galets avec les caractéristiques énoncées dans la revendication 1.More specifically, the subject of the invention is a profiling head comprising at least one roller forming cassette with the features set forth in claim 1.

Ainsi, aucun réajustement des moyens de réglage latéraux ou anti-flexion n'est nécessaire, cet ajustement étant asservi : aucun déréglage ne peut se produire, les moyens de transmission du réglage vertical, - poutre et/ou embase -, restant en pression. La poutre peut également servir de contre-flexion. L'adjectif « vertical » (ou verticaux) signifie perpendiculaire(s) aux arbres dans le plan formé par les axes de ces arbres.Thus, no readjustment of the lateral adjustment means or anti-bending is necessary, this adjustment being enslaved: no adjustment can occur, the transmission means of the vertical adjustment, - beam and / or base - remaining pressure. The beam can also serve as a counter-flexion. The adjective "vertical" (or vertical) means perpendicular (s) to the trees in the plane formed by the axes of these trees.

Selon des modes de réalisation particulièrement avantageux :

  • la poutre peut être montée soit du côté opposé à l'embase, soit du côté opposé à l'embase et du même côté que l'embase par rapport à la (ou aux) cassette(s) de formage ;
  • la liaison entre les arbres et l'embase et/ou la poutre étant réalisée par des tiges, au moins l'une de ces tiges présentant une hauteur ajustable ;
  • le réglage latéral d'alignement de l'outillage est effectué par des moyens de centrage, notamment des vis filetées, en liaison avec le montant vertical, cette liaison pouvant être réalisée par des flasques disposés de part et d'autre du montant ;
  • au moins un élément de réglage anti-flexion peut comporter, dans le cadre d'un réglage latéral d'alignement de l'outillage, une bague conique fendue suffisamment épaisse pour servir d'entretoise ; sur cette bague est monté un roulement dont le palier interne présente la même conicité que celle de la bague ; la position relative du roulement qui avance sur la bague est réglée latéralement par déplacement relatif du palier conique le long de la bague conique à l'aide d'un moyen d'ajustage approprié, notamment un écrou en liaison avec une portion filetée de la bague fendue, un galet ou une entretoise ; un tel déplacement induit un resserrement ou desserrement asservi de cette bague;
  • au moins un élément de réglage possède un palier externe partiel, formé d'une section de cylindre, dans lequel la tige de liaison à l'embase ou à la poutre vient se fixer; cette disposition permet de réduire les coûts par la mise en oeuvre d'une quantité réduite de matière, seule une portion de palier externe étant utile pour le réglage ;
  • la hauteur ajustable de la tige est réalisée par un moyen de serrage monté sur une extrémité de cette tige introduite dans l'orifice d'un embout.
According to particularly advantageous embodiments:
  • the beam can be mounted either on the opposite side to the base, or on the opposite side to the base and on the same side as the base relative to the (or) forming cassette (s);
  • the connection between the shafts and the base and / or the beam being made by rods, at least one of these rods having an adjustable height;
  • the lateral alignment adjustment of the tooling is performed by centering means, in particular threaded screws, in connection with the vertical upright, this connection can be performed by flanges arranged on either side of the upright;
  • at least one anti-bending adjustment element may comprise, in the context of a lateral alignment adjustment of the tool, a conical ring slit sufficiently thick to serve as a spacer; on this ring is mounted a bearing whose inner bearing has the same taper as that of the ring; the relative position of the bearing advancing on the ring is set laterally by relative displacement of the conical bearing along the conical ring by means of a suitable adjusting means, in particular a nut in connection with a threaded portion of the ring. split, a roller or a spacer; such a displacement induces a tightening or loosening of this ring;
  • at least one adjusting element has a partial outer bearing, formed of a cylinder section, in which the connection rod to the base or the beam is fixed; this arrangement reduces costs by the implementation of a reduced amount of material, only an outer bearing portion being useful for adjustment;
  • the adjustable height of the rod is formed by a clamping means mounted on one end of this rod inserted into the orifice of a nozzle.

L'invention a également pour objet une machine de profilage comportant une bobine de stockage de tôle, plusieurs têtes de profilage progressif comme définies ci-dessus, un convoyeur de sortie équipé de cisaille de découpe en plaques de la tôle profilée, un bac d'empilement des plaques et des équipements électroniques de pilotage des lignes de profilage formées par chaque tôle profilée. En sortie, des cintreuses peuvent être prévues pour cintrer les plaques de tôle profilées.The invention also relates to a profiling machine comprising a sheet metal storage coil, several progressive profiling heads as defined above, an output conveyor equipped with plate cutting shears profiled sheet, a tray of stacking of the plates and electronic equipment for driving profiling lines formed by each profiled sheet. At the outlet, bending machines can be provided for bending the shaped sheet metal plates.

En référence à la figure 1, la tête de profilage 1 vue en coupe principale est équipée d'une cassette de roulage 2 comportant un jeu de deux arbres parallèles 20 et 30.With reference to the figure 1 , the profiling head 1 seen in main section is equipped with a rolling cassette 2 having a set of two parallel shafts 20 and 30.

Des galets 201 à 217 sont montés sur l'arbre 20 et les galets 301 à 310 sont montés sur l'arbre 30. La plupart de ces galets sont montés sur roulements 3. Des entretoises 200 et 300 sont montées directement sur les arbres 20 et 30 afin de caler les galets d'un arbre sur les galets correspondants de l'autre arbre. Les galets et les entretoises forment l'outillage de roulage.Rollers 201 to 217 are mounted on the shaft 20 and the rollers 301 to 310 are mounted on the shaft 30. Most of these rollers are mounted on bearings 3. Spacers 200 and 300 are mounted directly on the shafts 20 and 30 to wedge the rollers of one shaft on the corresponding rollers of the other shaft. The rollers and spacers form the rolling tool.

La tôle à former vient s'insérer entre les galets ainsi positionnés en regard et présentant respectivement un profil complémentaire. Les deux arbres étant réglés en distance sur des montants verticaux latéraux 41 et 51 en fonction de l'écart souhaité entre les galets des arbres situés en regard pour une épaisseur donnée de tôle à former.The forming sheet is inserted between the rollers thus positioned opposite and respectively having a complementary profile.

Les arbres de montage et les galets ont un diamètre réduit par rapport à ceux utilisés classiquement. Dans l'exemple de réalisation, le diamètre des arbres est de 60 mm, alors qu'un diamètre conventionnel est de 100 mm.The mounting shafts and rollers have a reduced diameter compared to those conventionally used. In the exemplary embodiment, the diameter of the shafts is 60 mm, whereas a conventional diameter is 100 mm.

Les éléments de réglage latéral 71 fixés au montant 51 comportent des moyens d'alignement de l'outillage par centrage, comme détaillé ci-dessous, alors que les éléments de réglage 61 montés sur l'autre montant 41 ne comportent pas de système de centrage.The lateral adjusting elements 71 fixed to the upright 51 comprise tool alignment means by centering, as detailed below, while the adjustment elements 61 mounted on the other upright 41 do not include a centering system. .

Dans l'exemple de réalisation, une poutre de réglage 80 est montée sur les montants verticaux, à l'aide de raccords 81 et d'écrous de réglage 82, parallèlement aux arbres de montage 20 et 30. Des éléments de réglage anti-flexion 90 et 91 sont montés sensiblement en position centrale de chaque arbre, respectivement en liaison avec l'embase 60 et la poutre de réglage 80 par l'intermédiaire des tiges 4 et 5. La tige 4 présente une hauteur ajustable grâce à un ensemble 6 d'écrou/contre-écrou monté sur une extrémité filetée 4a de cette tige 4. La tige est introduite dans l'orifice 7a non fileté d'un embout 7. L'autre tige 5 est montée fixe sur la poutre de réglage 80 à l'aide de moyens connus de l'homme du métier.In the exemplary embodiment, an adjusting beam 80 is mounted on the vertical uprights, using connectors 81 and adjusting nuts 82, parallel to the mounting shafts 20 and 30. Anti-bending adjustment elements 90 and 91 are mounted substantially in the central position of each shaft, respectively in connection with the base 60 and the adjusting beam 80 via the rods 4 and 5.

Les éléments de réglage latéraux 61, 71 et anti-flexion 90, 91 sont montés sur des roulements 3 et 3a, et s'ajustent automatiquement au réglage vertical effectué sur les butées 44 et 54.The lateral adjustment elements 61, 71 and anti-flexion 90, 91 are mounted on bearings 3 and 3a, and automatically adjust to the vertical adjustment made on the stops 44 and 54.

De manière plus détaillée, s'agissant du réglage d'alignement latéral, les figures 2a, 2b et 2c illustrent une vue latérale et des vues en coupe de la figure 1 concentrée sur un élément 71 de réglage d'alignement de l'outillage. Un tel élément comporte deux boulons de centrage à vis filetées 72 et 73. Les boulons sont montés sur deux flasques 74 et 75, disposés extérieurement à deux parois 57 et 58 du montant 51, pour traverser les parois 57 et 58.In more detail, with regard to the lateral alignment adjustment, the Figures 2a, 2b and 2c illustrate a side view and sectional views of the figure 1 concentrated on a tool alignment adjusting element 71. Such an element comprises two centering bolts with threaded screws 72 and 73. The bolts are mounted on two flanges 74 and 75, disposed externally on two walls 57 and 58 of the upright 51, to pass through the walls 57 and 58.

Dans le cadre du réglage latéral d'alignement de l'outillage, un élément de réglage anti-flexion est illustré en figure 3a. Un tel élément 90 comporte une bague conique 92a fendue longitudinalement selon l'axe X'X de l'arbre 20. La bague présente une épaisseur suffisante pour servir d'entretoise. Sur cette bague 92a, est monté un roulement 3a dont le palier interne 30 présente la même conicité que celle de la bague 92a. La position relative du roulement 3a sur la bague est réglée latéralement par déplacement relatif (flèche F) de ce roulement le long de la bague conique 92a à l'aide d'un écrou 32 en liaison avec une portion filetée 93 de la bague fendue. Un tel déplacement induit simultanément un resserrement ou desserrement asservi de cette bague.As part of the lateral alignment adjustment of the tooling, an anti-bending adjustment element is illustrated in figure 3a . Such an element 90 comprises a conical ring 92a slotted longitudinally along the axis X'X of the shaft 20. The ring has a thickness sufficient to serve as a spacer. On this ring 92a is mounted a bearing 3a whose inner bearing 30 has the same taper as that of the ring 92a. The relative position of the bearing 3a on the ring is set laterally by relative movement (arrow F) of this bearing along the conical ring 92a by means of a nut 32 in connection with a threaded portion 93 of the split ring. Such a displacement simultaneously induces a constriction or loosening of this ring.

Un autre élément anti-flexion 91 est illustré en figure 3b. Cet élément se compose d'une bague fendue 92b de même type que la bague 92a et d'un roulement 3a à palier interne conique 30, identique au roulement associé à la bague 92a. Un déplacement latéral entraîne le glissement du roulement 3a sur la bague 92b dont le diamètre reste constant par augmentation ou diminution de l'ouverture de la fente de la bague. Le déplacement est assuré par le galet 305 qui appuie contre le roulement 3a.Another anti-flexion element 91 is illustrated in figure 3b . This element consists of a split ring 92b of the same type as the ring 92a and a bearing 3a conical inner bearing 30, identical to the bearing associated with the ring 92a. A lateral displacement causes the rolling of the bearing 3a on the ring 92b whose diameter remains constant by increasing or decreasing the opening of the slot of the ring. The displacement is provided by the roller 305 which bears against the bearing 3a.

La figure 4 illustre en coupe transversale selon un plan variable A-A de la figure 1, les deux éléments de réglage anti-flexion 90 et 91 des figures 3a et 3b. La figure met en évidence l'utilisation de paliers externes partiels 94a, 94b formés d'une section de cylindre disposée au regard de la tige 4 de liaison à l'embase 60 ou la tige 5 de liaison à la poutre 80. Les extrémités des tiges 4 et 5 viennent se fixer respectivement dans les paliers partiels 94a et 94b. Cette réduction de longueur de palier, avantageuse en terme de coût, est justifiée par le fait que seule une portion de palier externe est utile pour le réglage. Les paliers internes 30 restent complets.The figure 4 illustrates in cross-section according to a variable plan AA of the figure 1 , the two anti-bending adjustment elements 90 and 91 of the Figures 3a and 3b . The figure highlights the use of external bearings partial 94a, 94b formed of a cylinder section disposed opposite the connecting rod 4 to the base 60 or the rod 5 connecting to the beam 80. The ends of the rods 4 and 5 are respectively fixed in the bearings Partials 94a and 94b. This reduction in bearing length, advantageous in terms of cost, is justified by the fact that only an outer bearing portion is useful for adjustment. The inner bearings 30 remain complete.

L'invention n'est pas limitée à l'exemple décrit et représenté. Selon d'autres modes de réalisation de l'invention :

  • des éléments de centrage latéral 71 peuvent être montés sur les deux montants verticaux 41 et 51 ;
  • plusieurs cassettes peuvent être montées entre l'embase et la poutre de réglage ;
  • d'autres types de moyens de serrage des bagues des tiges ou des butées, par exemple à lame ou à clipsage, peuvent être mis en oeuvre.
The invention is not limited to the example described and shown. According to other embodiments of the invention:
  • lateral centering elements 71 can be mounted on the two vertical uprights 41 and 51;
  • several cassettes can be mounted between the base and the adjusting beam;
  • other types of clamping means rod rings or stops, for example blade or clipping, can be implemented.
