[0006] Preferably, the movable sleeve is vertically slidably connected to a sliding rod, a telescopic spring is fixedly sleeved on the top of the sliding rod, and the lower end of the telescopic spring is fixedly connected to the movable sleeve.
[0007] Preferably, a No. 2 detection plate is fixed to the lower end of the sliding rod, a No. 3 spring telescopic rod is connected between the No. 1 detection plate and the No. 2 detection plate, and the bottom of the No. 2 detection plate is flush with the bottom of the compensation plate.
[0008] Preferably, a second spring telescopic rod is arranged in an array between the clamping plate and the compensation plate, and the second spring telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the clamping plate and the compensation plate.
[0009] Preferably, a connecting plate is fixed to the side of the clamping plate away from the No. 1 detection plate, and a through hole is opened on the connecting plate along the outer side of the positive and negative screw rods. Fixed plates are fixed to the upper and lower ends of one side of the No. 1 mounting plate, and the upper and lower ends of the positive and negative screw rods are rotatably connected to the fixed plate.
[0010] Preferably, one side of the mounting plate is symmetrically provided with a guide groove, the inner wall of the guide groove is slidably connected with a guide block, and one side of the guide block is fixedly connected to the screw sleeve.
[0011] Preferably, a driving motor is fixedly mounted on the bottom of one side of the mounting plate, the rotors at both ends of the driving motor are connected to driving bevel gears through keyways, the bottoms of the forward and reverse screw rods are connected to transmission bevel gears through keyways, and the transmission bevel gears are meshedly connected with the driving bevel gears.
[0012] A working method for placing an automatic clamping fixture comprises the following steps:
[0013] Step 1: Place the workpiece to be clamped and fixed between the two compensation plates. The workpiece applies pressure to the clamping weighing sensor under the action of gravity. The clamping weighing sensor senses the pressure change and converts the change into an electrical signal to transmit to the external computer. The external computer controls the driving motor. The output end of the driving motor drives the driving bevel gear to rotate. The driving bevel gear drives the forward and reverse screws to rotate through the meshing with the transmission bevel gear. The forward and reverse screws drive the two moving plates to approach each other through the meshing with the screw sleeve, thereby moving the clamping plate to clamp the workpiece.
[0014] Step 2: During the clamping process, the No. 1 spring telescopic rod, the No. 2 spring telescopic rod and the No. 3 spring telescopic rod are all contracted and deformed, the No. 2 detection plate is close to the workpiece, and pushes the slide bar to slide in the moving sleeve, thereby driving the telescopic spring to extend. During the clamping period, the pressure detected by the clamping weighing sensor increases. After the pressure detected by the clamping weighing sensor increases to a certain value and does not change, the external computer controls the drive motor to turn off and turns on the detection cylinder;
[0015] Step 3: After the detection cylinder is opened, its piston rod extends, driving the detection weighing sensor to move towards the direction of the workpiece and exerting thrust on the workpiece. The detection weighing sensor detects the thrust exerted by the detection cylinder on the workpiece. If the thrust detected by the detection weighing sensor increases to a certain value and does not change, the external computer controls the detection cylinder piston rod to stop extending;
[0016] Step 4: During the extension of the piston rod of the detection cylinder, the No. 2 detection plate is close to the workpiece. If the workpiece is firmly clamped, the position of the workpiece does not change during the extension of the piston rod of the detection cylinder, and the workpiece does not drive the No. 2 detection plate to move. The No. 2 detection plate, the slide rod and the movable sleeve have no lateral displacement, and the displacement sensor has no signal change, indicating that the workpiece is firmly clamped;
[0017] Step 5: If the displacement sensor has a signal change, it means that the workpiece is not firmly clamped. The external computer receives the electrical signal transmitted by the displacement sensor, and then controls the compensation cylinder to start. The piston rod of the compensation cylinder extends, driving the compensation plate to further close to the clamped workpiece, thereby further fixing the workpiece;
[0018] Step 6: After the subsequent processing of the workpiece is completed, the external computer controls the drive motor rotor to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby reversing the forward and reverse screws, driving the moving plate to reset. At the same time, the external computer controls the detection cylinder and compensation cylinder piston rods to retract, driving the detection weighing sensor and compensation plate to reset, releasing the clamping of the workpiece, and then the workpiece can be removed.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0020] 1. The present invention can drive the two moving plates to approach each other through the meshing with the screw sleeve during the rotation process by setting the positive and negative screws, so as to perform preliminary clamping on the workpiece to be clamped, thereby ensuring the basic function of the device. The No. 1 spring telescopic rod is used to connect the moving plate and the clamping plate, and plays a certain buffering and protective role, reducing the damage to the workpiece after clamping. The clamping weighing sensor is used to send an electrical signal to an external computer, thereby controlling the start and shut down of the driving motor, and can also detect the clamping condition of the clamping plate on the workpiece, so as to avoid excessive clamping pressure and damage to the workpiece. The detection cylinder and the detection weighing sensor are used to cooperate with the displacement sensor to detect whether the clamped workpiece is firmly clamped. The structures such as the moving sleeve and the displacement sensor can be used to detect whether the workpiece has a displacement change under the push of the detection cylinder. If there is a displacement change, it means that the workpiece is not firmly clamped. The compensation cylinder can be controlled to start by the external computer when the workpiece is not firmly clamped. The piston rod of the compensation cylinder extends a certain length to push the compensation plate to further clamp the workpiece, thereby improving the clamping effect of the workpiece.
[0021] 2. The telescopic spring and the third spring telescopic rod of the present invention can ensure that the second detection plate is always in close contact with the clamped workpiece, and then when the workpiece moves, the second detection plate can drive the sliding rod and the moving sleeve to produce lateral displacement, so that the displacement sensor detection signal changes, and the signal is transmitted to the external computer, thereby controlling the start of the compensation cylinder to further clamp the workpiece;
[0022] 3. The present invention uses a driving motor, a driving bevel gear and a transmission bevel gear to drive the forward and reverse screws to rotate, and the guide groove and the guide block are used to limit the screw sleeve to ensure normal engagement between the screw sleeve and the forward and reverse screws.

[0037] A working method for placing an automatic clamping fixture comprises the following steps:
[0038] Step 1: Place the workpiece to be clamped and fixed between the two compensation plates 15. The workpiece applies pressure to the clamping weighing sensor 16 under the action of gravity. The clamping weighing sensor 16 senses the pressure change, converts the change into an electrical signal and transmits it to an external computer. The external computer controls the driving motor 29. The output end of the driving motor 29 drives the driving bevel gear 30 to rotate. The driving bevel gear 30 drives the forward and reverse screw rods 8 to rotate by meshing with the transmission bevel gear 31. The forward and reverse screw rods 8 drive the two moving plates 5 to approach each other by meshing with the screw sleeve 6, thereby moving the clamping plate 10 to clamp the workpiece.
[0039] Step 2: During the clamping process, the No. 1 spring telescopic rod 9, the No. 2 spring telescopic rod 14 and the No. 3 spring telescopic rod 27 are all contracted and deformed, the No. 2 detection plate 28 is close to the workpiece, and pushes the slide bar 24 to slide in the movable sleeve 23, thereby driving the telescopic spring 25 to extend. During the clamping period, the pressure detected by the clamping weighing sensor 16 increases. After the pressure detected by the clamping weighing sensor 16 increases to a certain value and does not change, the external computer controls the drive motor 29 to turn off and turns on the detection cylinder 18;
[0040] Step 3: After the detection cylinder 18 is opened, its piston rod extends, driving the detection weighing sensor 20 to move toward the direction of the workpiece and exerting thrust on the workpiece. The detection weighing sensor 20 detects the thrust exerted by the detection cylinder 18 on the workpiece. If the thrust detected by the detection weighing sensor 20 increases to a certain value and does not change, the external computer controls the piston rod of the detection cylinder 18 to stop extending;
[0041] Step 4: During the extension of the piston rod of the detection cylinder 18, the second detection plate 28 is close to the workpiece. If the workpiece is firmly clamped, the position of the workpiece does not change during the extension of the piston rod of the detection cylinder 18, and the workpiece will not drive the second detection plate 28 to move. The second detection plate 28, the slide bar 24 and the movable sleeve 23 have no lateral displacement, and the displacement sensor 26 has no signal change, indicating that the workpiece is firmly clamped;
[0042] Step 5: If the displacement sensor 26 has a signal change, it means that the workpiece is not firmly clamped. The external computer receives the electrical signal transmitted by the displacement sensor 26, and then controls the compensation cylinder 12 to start. The piston rod of the compensation cylinder 12 extends, driving the compensation plate 15 to further close to the clamped workpiece, thereby further fixing the workpiece;
[0043] Step 6: After the subsequent processing of the workpiece is completed, the external computer controls the drive motor 29 to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby reversing the forward and reverse screws 8, driving the movable plate 5 to reset. At the same time, the external computer controls the detection cylinder 18 and the compensation cylinder 12 to retract the piston rods, driving the detection weighing sensor 20 and the compensation plate 15 to reset, thereby releasing the clamping of the workpiece, and then the workpiece can be removed.
[0044] Working principle: When in use, the workpiece to be clamped and fixed is placed between the two compensation plates 15. The workpiece applies pressure to the clamping weighing sensor 16 under the action of gravity. The clamping weighing sensor 16 senses the pressure change and converts the change into an electrical signal to be transmitted to an external computer. The external computer controls the driving motor 29. The output end of the driving motor 29 drives the driving bevel gear 30 to rotate. The driving bevel gear 30 drives the forward and reverse screw rods 8 to rotate through the engagement with the transmission bevel gear 31. The forward and reverse screw rods 8 drive the two moving plates 5 to approach each other through the engagement with the screw rod sleeve 6, thereby moving the clamping plate 10 to clamp the workpiece. During the clamping process, The spring telescopic rod 9, the second spring telescopic rod 14 and the third spring telescopic rod 27 are all contracted and deformed, the second detection plate 28 is close to the workpiece, and pushes the slide bar 24 to slide in the movable sleeve 23, thereby driving the telescopic spring 25 to extend. During the clamping period, the pressure detected by the clamping weighing sensor 16 increases. After the pressure detected by the clamping weighing sensor 16 increases to a certain value and does not change, the external computer controls the drive motor 29 to close and open the detection cylinder 18. After the detection cylinder 18 is opened, its piston rod extends, driving the detection weighing sensor 20 to move in the direction close to the workpiece and applying thrust to the workpiece to detect the weighing. The sensor 20 detects the thrust applied by the detection cylinder 18 to the workpiece. If the thrust detected by the detection weighing sensor 20 increases to a certain value and does not change, the external computer controls the detection cylinder 18 piston rod to stop extending. During the extension of the detection cylinder 18 piston rod, the second detection plate 28 is close to the workpiece. If the workpiece is firmly clamped, the position of the workpiece does not change during the extension of the detection cylinder 18 piston rod, and the workpiece will not drive the second detection plate 28 to move. The second detection plate 28, the sliding rod 24 and the movable sleeve 23 have no lateral displacement, and the displacement sensor 26 has no signal change, indicating that the workpiece is firmly clamped. If the displacement sensor 26 has a signal The signal changes, indicating that the workpiece is not firmly clamped. The external computer receives the electrical signal transmitted by the displacement sensor 26, and then controls the compensation cylinder 12 to start. The piston rod of the compensation cylinder 12 extends, driving the compensation plate 15 to further close to the clamped workpiece, thereby further fixing the workpiece. After the subsequent processing of the workpiece is completed, the external computer controls the drive motor 29 rotor to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby reversing the forward and reverse screw rods 8, driving the moving plate 5 to reset. At the same time, the external computer controls the detection cylinder 18 and the compensation cylinder 12 piston rods to retract, driving the detection weighing sensor 20 and the compensation plate 15 to reset, thereby releasing the clamping of the workpiece, and the staff can remove the workpiece.

After the pressure detected by the clamping weighing sensor (16) increases to a certain value and does not change, the external computer controls the drive motor (29) to turn off and turns on the detection cylinder (18); Step 3: After the detection cylinder (18) is opened, its piston rod extends, driving the detection weighing sensor (20) to move in a direction close to the workpiece and exert a thrust on the workpiece. The detection weighing sensor (20) detects the thrust exerted by the detection cylinder (18) on the workpiece. If the thrust detected by the detection weighing sensor (20) increases to a certain value and does not change, the external computer controls the piston rod of the detection cylinder (18) to stop extending; Step 4: During the extension of the piston rod of the detection cylinder (18), the second detection plate (28) is in close contact with the workpiece. If the workpiece is firmly clamped, the position of the workpiece does not change during the extension of the piston rod of the detection cylinder (18), and the workpiece does not drive the second detection plate (28) to move. The second detection plate (28), the sliding rod (24) and the movable sleeve (23) all have no lateral displacement, and the displacement sensor (26) has no signal change, indicating that the workpiece is firmly clamped; Step 5: If the displacement sensor (26) has a signal change, it means that the workpiece is not firmly clamped. The external computer receives the electrical signal transmitted by the displacement sensor (26), and then controls the compensation cylinder (12) to start. The piston rod of the compensation cylinder (12) extends, driving the compensation plate (15) to further close to the clamped workpiece, thereby further fixing the workpiece; Step 6: After the subsequent processing of the workpiece is completed, the external computer controls the drive motor (29) to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby reversing the forward and reverse screws (8) and driving the movable plate (5) to reset. At the same time, the external computer controls the piston rods of the detection cylinder (18) and the compensation cylinder (12) to retract, driving the detection weighing sensor (20) and the compensation plate (15) to reset, thereby releasing the clamping of the workpiece, and then the workpiece can be removed.
