Embodiment Construction

[0014] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The following examples are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention more clearly, but not to limit the protection scope of the present invention.

[0015] Such as figure 1 As shown, a flexible clamp includes at least three baffles 1, and the three baffles 1 form a triangle and are distributed around the clamped part. Each baffle 1 is covered with a flexible airbag 2, and the baffle 1 is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet connected to the flexible airbag 2, the air inlet is connected with the air pump 4, and the air outlet is connected with the air outlet regulating valve 5. The air outlet regulating valve 5 is a solenoid valve with a wireless transmission module, which can communicate with the controller wirelessly.

[0016] The working surface where the flexible airbag 2 is in contact with the workpiece is provided with a pres...

Abstract

The invention discloses a flexible clamp which comprises a plurality of platy baffles. Each baffle is covered with a flexible air bag. Each baffle is provided with an air inlet hole and an air outlet hole which communicate with the corresponding flexible air bag. Each air inlet hole is connected with an inflation pump. Each air outlet hole is connected with an air outlet adjusting valve. The working face, in contact with a workpiece, of each flexible air bag is provided with a pressure induction piece. The pressure induction pieces, the inflation pumps and the air outlet adjusting valves are in wireless signal connection with a controller. The controller judges whether the clamped workpiece is tightly clamped or not according to signals transmitted by the pressure induction pieces, and the clamping degree is controlled by adjusting the inflation pumps and the air outlet adjusting valves. By means of the flexible clamp, the probability that workpieces high in brittleness are damaged can be effectively lowered, in addition, the flexible air bags can be effectively attached to the outer surfaces of workpieces irregular in shape, and the clamping degree is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a flexible clamp. Background technique [0002] In the prior art, there is a fixture for horizontally fixing workpieces, which mainly includes a workbench and a baffle on the workbench. The baffle is driven by a driving device and can move relative to the workbench to realize workpiece clamping or loosening. However, in the process of mechanical production and manufacturing, it is usually encountered that irregular workpieces need surface processing. For the above-mentioned fixtures, the working surface and the workpiece are mostly in hard contact. For workpieces with high brittleness and irregular shapes, This kind of fixture is easy to cause damage to the clamped workpiece, reduces the qualified rate of products, and affects production efficiency. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, provide a flexible clamp, and solve the technical proble...
