[0026] The following description sufficiently illustrates specific embodiments of the invention to enable those skilled in the art to practice and reproduce the invention.

[0027] like Figure 1The figure shows the use state of the large-scale long-arm workpiece balance clamping mechanism of the present invention.

[0028] The large-scale long-arm workpiece balanced clamping mechanism comprises two clamping mechanism monomers 1 which are placed opposite to each other, and the large-scale long-arm workpiece 2 is placed on the two clamping mechanism monomers 1 .

[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the structure of the clamping mechanism monomer 1 in the present invention; Figure 3 As shown, it is a front view of the clamping mechanism monomer 1 of the present invention; Figure 4 As shown, it is a right view of the clamping mechanism monomer 1 of the present invention; Figure 5 , which is a top view of the clamping mechanism monomer 1 of the present invention.

[0030] The clamping mechanism unit 1 includes: a base plate 11, a flap 12, a cylinder 13, and a clamping vertical plate 14. A first arc-shaped groove is longitudinally opened on the top of the base plate 11, and the cylinder 13 is placed in the first arc-shaped groove, and the front end of the cylinder 13 is located outside the first arc-shaped groove; the flap 12 is welded to the upper part of the cylinder 13, and the clamping vertical plate 14 is connected (welded or bolted) to the top of the base plate 11, and the clamping vertical plate 14 is located at the rear of the first arc-shaped groove.

[0031] A second arc groove is formed at the bottom of the flap 12, and the cylinder 13 is welded in the second arc groove; or a through groove is formed on the side of the cylinder 13, and the bottom of the flap 12 is welded in the through groove. The radius of the first arc groove, the second arc groove, and the cylinder 13 are the same. Lubricating grease is applied in the first arc groove.

[0032] Two clamping plates 14 are connected to the upper part of the bottom plate 11, and the two clamping plates 14 are parallel to each other. The opening of the first arc groove is located at the front end of the top of the bottom plate 11. The bottom plate 11 can be provided with a plurality of mounting through holes to facilitate fixing the bottom plate 11. The clamping plates 14 and the bottom plate 11 are hollow structures to reduce weight.

[0033] In order to further keep the bottom plate 11 level, support bodies 15 are respectively provided on both sides of the bottom plate 11 (welded or bolted), and support columns are provided on the tops of the support bodies 15 to facilitate the placement of large long-arm workpieces 2 with a relatively large width.

[0034] The method of using the large long-arm workpiece balanced clamping mechanism is as follows:

[0035] Step 1: Install two clamping mechanism monomers 1 on the machine fixture so that the two cylinders 13 are in a horizontal coaxial state;

[0036] The base plate 11 is positioned and clamped on the machine fixture so that the two cylinders 13 are in a horizontal coaxial state.

[0037] Step 2: hoist the large long-arm workpiece between the two clamping vertical plates 14, adjust the machining position of the large long-arm workpiece, and place the large long-arm workpiece on the flap 12;

[0038] Place two jacks on both sides of the lower part of the large long-arm workpiece, use the two jacks to rotate the large long-arm workpiece, and align the machining position.

[0039] Since the two cylinders 13 are in a horizontal coaxial state and the flap 12 is in the same horizontal plane, after a large long-arm workpiece is placed on the flap 12, only circumferential alignment is required without axial alignment, which greatly improves the alignment efficiency.

[0040] Step 3: After the large long-arm workpiece is aligned, the machine fixture drives the two clamping mechanism units 1 to move, and the two clamping vertical plates 14 clamp the large long-arm workpiece. The lathe uses the alignment position as a reference point to set machining parameters and machines the machining position.

[0041] After the two clamping upright plates 14 clamp the large long-arm type workpiece, the sling is removed.

[0042] The terms used in the present invention are illustrative and exemplary, rather than restrictive. Since the present invention can be implemented in various forms without departing from the spirit or essence of the technical solution, it should be understood that the above embodiments are not limited to any of the aforementioned details, but should be widely interpreted within the spirit and scope defined by the attached claims, so all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the claims or their equivalents should be covered by the attached claims.
