Abstract
A crust bending apparatus includes a positioning assembling and a bending assembly. The positioning assembly includes a conveyance cylinder, a conveyance block, a positioning cylinder, a positioning rod, a positioning block, a holding cylinder, a holding rod, and a holding block. The bending assembly includes a bending cylinder, a bending rod, a bending block, first and second pivot pins, a line-to-rotation conversion member, and an outer casing. The bending rod has an end coupled to the bending cylinder and an opposite end forming a projection having a circular cross-section on a side surface thereof. The projection is received in a position constraint slot defined in the line-to-rotation conversion member. The apparatus is operated with power cylinder based mechanisms to replace human labor in bending a metal crust in order to reduce undesired influence of human factor and also to realize stable assembling operation and improve product passing rate and throughput.
