Then, as in the case of the short side trimming stage 20, the workpiece inner pressing member 71 and the workpiece outer pressing member 70 (see FIG. 13) of the long side trimming stage 50 sandwich the cylindrical workpiece 90 and the outer fitting portion. The cylindrical workpiece 90 is positioned and controlled at a predetermined position in the vertical direction by the servo motor 49. And the lower end part of the long side wall 92,92 which protruded from the cut surface (1st cut surface 95) of the short side wall 91,91 among the cylindrical workpiece | work 90 is a side wall of the slide cutter 54, as shown in FIG. The receiving grooves 54 </ b> A and 54 </ b> A are inserted, and the positions of the long side walls 92 and 92 near the lower end are disposed between the inner blade 55 and the outer blade 52.

  At this time, in the trimming apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment, the upper surface of the slide cutter 54, that is, the upper surfaces of the inner blades 55 and 55, and the first of the short-side sidewalls 91 and 91 cut first in the cylindrical workpiece 90. The control data of the servo motor 49 is set so that a clearance of 0.05 [mm] or less is formed between the cut surface 95 (see FIG. 1). In this state, the inner fitting portion 30 reciprocates in the lateral direction H2, and the lower edge portions of the long side walls 92, 92 are cut as shown in FIG. A second cut surface 97 (see FIG. 1) is formed in the part, and the entire opening edge of the cylindrical workpiece 90 is trimmed. Then, the workpiece inner pressing member 71 and the workpiece outer pressing member 70 are raised, and the cylindrical workpiece 90 is transferred to the pair of clamping members 12 and 12 on the terminal end side of the transfer device 11, and is conveyed to the workpiece discharge portion P2.

Here, since the workpiece inner pressing member 71 is positioned and controlled by the servo motor 49 and the workpiece outer pressing member 70 is driven by the servo motor 49, it is not necessary to replace the workpiece inner pressing member 71 as in the prior art. The cutting position in the cylindrical workpiece 90 can be easily adjusted or changed to an arbitrary position by position control by the servo motor 49. That is, by changing the setting of the stop position of the workpiece inner pressing member 71 by position control by the servo motor 49, the cut surfaces of the short side wall 91 and the long side wall 92 of the cylindrical workpiece 90 can be made flush. In addition, the cut surface of the short side wall 91 and the cut surface of the long side wall 92 can be shifted, and the overall height of the cylindrical workpiece 90 can be changed.

In the state where the inner blade 55 (see FIG. 17) of the long side trimming stage 50 is floated, the long side walls 92 and 92 are cut to form the second cut surface 97, The second cutting surface 97 can be shifted, or the long side walls 92 and 92 can be cut with the inner cutting edge 55 of the long side trimming stage 50 in contact with the first cutting surface 95. It is also possible to form the second cut surface 97 so that the first cut surface 95 and the second cut surface 97 are completely flush with each other.

  Here, if the first cut surface 95 and the second cut surface 97 are shifted, the inner blade 55 of the long side trimming stage 50 does not slide in contact with the first cut surface 95 of the short side wall 91. There is no possibility that the first cut surface 95 is scraped off by the inner blade 55, and the first cut surface 95 is maintained in a good state. In this case, the height difference between the pair of long side walls 92 after trimming (after cutting) is 0.05 [mm] or less with respect to the height of the pair of short side walls 91 after trimming (after cutting). The first cut surface 95 when the cover plate (not shown) is applied to the first cut surface 95 and the second cut surface 97 of the cylindrical workpiece 90 for welding or brazing. And the step of the second cut surface 97 is less likely to become an obstacle.

  The workpiece inner pressing member 71 and the workpiece outer pressing member 70 are used not only for adjusting the cutting position in the cylindrical workpiece 90 but also as means for fitting the cylindrical workpiece 90 into the outer fitting portion 21. be able to.

  Further, when the cylindrical workpiece 90 is cut, the workpiece inner pressing member 71 moves in the workpiece cutting direction together with the inner fitting portion 30, and the cylindrical workpiece 90 receives the sliding force from the workpiece inner pressing member 71 to be removed. Although it is feared that the fitting portion 21 is inclined, in the trimming apparatus 10 of the present embodiment, the workpiece contact portion and the inner fitting portion that are in contact with the bottom wall 93 of the cylindrical workpiece 90 in the workpiece inner pressing member 71. The sliding force applied to the cylindrical workpiece 90 from the workpiece inner pressing member 71 is suppressed by the slide joints 38K and 57 provided between the workpiece 30 and the slide joint 38K. Thereby, the trimming process can be performed in a state in which the inclination of the cylindrical workpiece 90 in the outer fitting portion 21 is suppressed, and the shape quality of the cut surface of the cylindrical workpiece 90 can be improved. Further, since the leaf spring 39 for urging the workpiece contact portion 37 to the origin position with respect to the support main body portion 36 is provided, the contact position with the workpiece contact portion 37 with respect to the bottom wall 93 of the cylindrical workpiece 90 is constant. Become.
