How does the corner cylinder rotate? Case study of handling the corner cylinder

How does the angle cylinder rotate?





The 90-degree corner pressing cylinder is also called a corner cylinder. The working principle of the cylinder is the same as that of the rotary clamping cylinder. It is also a clamping device driven by pneumatic or hydraulic pressure. During operation, the piston completes rotation first, and then rotates to the designed position and angle. Then complete the clamping stroke - that is, press down straightly and clamp the workpiece. The pressing stroke of the angle cylinder changes a lot. There are usually 10, 20, 30, and 50 different pressing strokes to choose from. The cylinder can be equipped with a magnetic switch to realize the control of the automation system.





The rotation angle of a general rotary cylinder can be adjusted internally, such as plus or minus 15 degrees, plus or minus 90 degrees, etc. The specific adjustable angle depends on the model. Among them, the gear-type angle cylinders are all adjustable, while the blade-type cylinders need to be carefully selected, as some models are not adjustable.





1. If you choose a directly adjustable rotary cylinder, you can directly adjust the screw on the rotary cylinder.

2. A linear cylinder can be used for indirect angle control, and two cylinders can achieve two angle controls.

3. The specific implementation method is: Set up a cylinder at a certain radius outside the center of the circle that needs to be rotated. When the cylinder makes linear motion, the mechanical component can rotate at a certain angle at the center of the circle. Installing two cylinders in different directions can achieve two angles of rotation. .


4. This method has been used to control the rotary ironing machine before, which requires two cylinders to work alternately.





Corner cylinder handling case





The action principle of this mechanism is relatively simple. Let’s take a look at its principle:
1. The rack rod drives the gear and intermediate shaft to rotate;


2. You can see that there is a top post on the side of the intermediate shaft, and the surface of the intermediate shaft has a chute that matches it. When the top post reaches the horizontal end of the chute, it will enter the vertical direction, and then the intermediate shaft will will drop.







Let's extend it a little further. The rotary clamping cylinder similar to this mechanism is the following:





The working principle of this angle cylinder is as follows:
1. The piston rod moves upward under the action of air pressure. At this time, the steel ball slides in the vertical chute of the rotating shaft;
2. When the steel balls enter the inclined chute, the piston rod begins to rotate while rising;
3. When the piston rod descends, the action is opposite.

Note: The reason why there is a vertical chute on the rotating shaft is to allow the rocker arm on the piston rod to rotate in place before pressing down, because many working conditions require the rocker arm to be vertically down during the final compression. pressure state.
