Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fluid connectors, and in particular to a fluid butt joint, a fluid butt joint mechanism and a workpiece processing device. Background Art

[0002] At present, in the processing production line of large parts, processing tools driven by air sources are used to process various parts of the parts. In the specific processing process, the processing tools need to change different positions to ensure that the entire large part is processed.

[0003] In order to supply air to the processing tooling driven by the air source, in the existing production lines, an air supply joint is usually set at each processing station, and the air supply joint is quickly docked with the butt joint set on the processing tooling, so that the air supply joint can supply air to the processing tooling. It is understandable that in order to avoid docking failure due to poor docking accuracy when the processing tooling changes and docks between different positions, a spring floating structure is usually set on at least one of the air supply structure and the butt joint. Taking the butt joint as an example, a spring group is usually set between the processing tooling and the butt joint. The axial direction of the spring group is along the docking direction of the butt joint. During docking, the spring group undergoes elastic deformation to make the butt joint match the docking orientation of the air supply joint.

[0004] However, the above-mentioned spring group structure is easily affected by the gravity of the butt joint and produces structural deformation in the vertical direction, which causes unexpected friction between the butt joint and the air supply joint during the butt joint process, making it difficult to achieve smooth butt joint between the two. Summary of the invention

[0005] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a fluid butt joint, a fluid butt joint mechanism and a workpiece processing device with a smoother butt joint process and higher butt joint reliability in order to solve the problem of the relatively sluggish butt joint process between two butt joints in the prior art.

[0006] A first aspect of an embodiment of the present application provides a fluid docking joint, comprising: a docking plate, one side of which is provided with a fluid docking interface;

[0007] A first connection base and a second connection base are located on a side of the docking plate away from the docking interface; and

[0008] At least two elastic members, the first connection base is connected to a side of the docking plate away from the docking interface, and the at least two elastic members are arranged between the first connection base and the second connection base at intervals along a first direction, so that the first connection base can swing relative to the second connection base along the first direction;

[0009] The dimension of the elastic member along the first direction is smaller than the dimension of the elastic member along the second direction;

[0010] Wherein, the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are perpendicular to each other pairwise, and the third direction is the direction from the first connection base to the second connection base.

[0011] In one embodiment, the elastic member includes a first end connected to the first connection base, a second end connected to the second connection base, and an elastic portion located between the first end and the second end.

[0012] The elastic portion is configured as a bent structure capable of elastically deforming along the first direction.

[0013] In one embodiment, the elastic portion is configured as a sheet-like member.

[0014] In one embodiment, the elastic portion includes a plurality of holding portions arranged at intervals along the third direction, and a joint portion joined between two adjacent holding portions. Two adjacent joint portions protrude toward different sides of the holding portion along the first direction to define a bent structure.

[0015] In one embodiment, the first end and the second end of the elastic member are respectively provided with a first fixing portion and a second fixing portion. A first mounting portion is provided at a position corresponding to the first fixing portion on the first connection base, and a second mounting portion is provided at a position corresponding to the second fixing portion on the second connection base. The first fixing portion is connected to the first mounting portion, and the second fixing portion is connected to the second mounting portion.

[0016] In one embodiment, the number of holding portions is three, and the number of joint portions is two. One joint portion and the holding portions at both ends of one joint portion define a first bent segment, and the other joint portion and the holding portions at both ends of the other joint portion define a second bent segment. The elastic portion further includes two straight segments.

[0017] The head end and the tail end of one of the straight segments are respectively connected to the first fixing portion and the head end of the first bent segment.

[0018] The tail end and the head end of the other straight segment are respectively connected to the second fixing portion and the tail end of the second bent segment.

[0019] In one embodiment, both the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion are configured as flange portions protruding from the elastic portion toward the first direction. The first mounting portion is configured as a first engaging groove for engaging with the first fixing portion, and the second mounting portion is configured as a second engaging groove for engaging with the second fixing portion.

[0020] In one embodiment, both the first engaging groove and the second engaging groove are configured as through grooves extending along the second direction.

[0021] The first card slot is further provided with at least two first positioning members, and the at least two first positioning members are used to block both sides of the first fixing portion in the second direction when the first fixing portion is engaged in the first card slot; and / or

[0022] The second card slot is further provided with at least two second positioning members, and the at least two second positioning members are used to block both sides of the second fixing portion in the second direction when the second fixing portion is engaged in the second card slot.

[0023] In one embodiment, the number of the elastic members is two, and the two elastic members are arranged at intervals in the first direction.

[0024] In one embodiment, the elastic members are arranged parallel to each other.

[0025] In the second aspect of the embodiments of the present application, a fluid docking mechanism is provided, including the above-mentioned fluid docking joint.

[0026] In one embodiment, the number of the fluid docking joints is two. One of the fluid docking joints is communicated with a fluid supply source, and the other fluid docking joint is communicated with a fluid using tooling, so as to communicate the fluid using tooling with the fluid supply source when the two fluid docking joints are docked.

[0027] In one embodiment, a docking installation portion is provided on the docking plate in each fluid docking joint, and the two fluid docking joints are connected through the docking installation portion, so that the docking interfaces in the two fluid docking joints are docked and sealed and conducted.

[0028] In one embodiment, the fluid docking mechanism further includes a driving component, and the driving component is used to drive one of the fluid docking joints to dock with the other fluid docking joint.

[0029] In the third aspect of the embodiments of the present application, a workpiece processing device is provided, including a clamping mechanism and the above-mentioned fluid docking mechanism, and the fluid supply joint in the fluid docking mechanism is arranged on the clamping mechanism.

[0030] The beneficial effects of the above-mentioned fluid docking joint, fluid docking mechanism and workpiece processing device:

[0031] In the above solution, on the one hand, since at least two elastic members are arranged at intervals between the first connection base and the second connection base, and the two elastic members provide elastic force, the first connection base can swing relative to the second connection base along the first direction. When the second connection base is connected to an external tooling, the docking plate connected to the first connection base can swing relative to the external tooling in the first direction to adapt to the docking requirements of the external joint, that is, the docking accuracy between the fluid docking joint and the external joint can be ensured.

[0032] On the other hand, by making the dimension of the elastic member in the first direction smaller than the dimension of the elastic member in the second direction, the elastic stiffness of the elastic member in the second direction is larger, and it is not easy to deform in the second direction. As long as the second direction of the elastic member is along the gravity direction (i.e., the vertical direction) during installation and the first direction is along the horizontal direction during installation, the first connection base and the second connection base are not easy to move relative to each other in the gravity direction. In other words, it is difficult for the docking plate and the external tooling to move relative to each other in the gravity direction. When the precision error of the external tooling and the external joint in the gravity direction is not large, even if the weight of the docking plate is large, it can effectively ensure the docking precision of the docking plate and the external joint in the gravity direction and achieve compliant and reliable docking between the two.

[0048] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the following will describe the detailed implementation manners of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to fully understand the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0049] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of the present invention.

[0050] In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "a plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0051] In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "mounted", "connected", "connected to", "fixed", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or integrated; it may be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it may be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it may be the communication inside two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly limited. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0052] In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the first feature being "on" or "under" the second feature may be that the first and second features are in direct contact, or the first and second features are in indirect contact through an intermediate medium. Moreover, the first feature being "above", "over" and "on top of" the second feature may be that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or merely indicates that the first feature has a higher horizontal height than the second feature.

[0053] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may also be an intermediate element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are only for illustrative purposes and do not represent the only implementation.

[0054] The fluid docking joint, fluid docking mechanism and workpiece processing device according to the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the fluid in the present application can be a liquid or a gas, etc. Here, the fluid is taken as an example of a gas for illustration. The situation where the fluid is of other types is similar and will not be elaborated here.

[0055] In addition, for the sake of convenience of description, the relative movement direction of the fluid docking joint 100 and the external joint is defined as the docking direction, that is, the direction D from the first connection base to the second connection base. In the fluid docking joint 100, the first direction H, the second direction V and the third direction S that are perpendicular to each other are defined, where the third direction S is the direction from the first connection base to the second connection base.

[0056] In other words, the thickness direction of the elastic member is the first direction H, the height direction of the elastic member is the second direction V, and the length direction of the elastic member is the third direction S. When each elastic member is disposed between the first connection base and the second connection base, the length direction of the elastic member is along the direction D from the first connection base to the second connection base. At this time, both the first direction H and the second direction V of the elastic member are perpendicular to the direction D from the first connection base to the second connection base.

[0057] Figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of the fluid docking joint provided by the embodiment of the present application, Figure 2 is an exploded structural diagram of the fluid docking joint provided by the embodiment of the present application, Figure 3 is a schematic structural diagram of the elastic member in the fluid docking joint provided by the embodiment of the present application.

[0058] Referring to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 , the fluid docking joint 100 of this embodiment includes a docking plate 10, at least two elastic members 20, and a first connection base 30 and a second connection base 50. A docking interface 11 is provided on one side of the docking plate 10. Exemplarily, the docking interface 11 is used to communicate with the fluid interface of the external joint when the fluid docking joint 100 is docked with the external joint.

[0059] The first connection base 30 and the second connection base 50 are both located on the side of the docking tray 10 away from the docking interface 11 of the fluid. In addition, the first connection base 30 is connected to the side of the docking tray 10 away from the docking interface 11 of the fluid, and at least two elastic members 20 are arranged between the first connection base 30 and the second connection base 50 along the first direction H at intervals; so that the first connection base 30 can swing along the first direction H relative to the second connection base 50.

[0060] At least two elastic members 20 are used to provide elastic force so that the first connection base 30 has a tendency to swing relative to the second connection base 50 along the first direction H of the elastic members 20;

[0061] A dimension of the elastic member 20 along the first direction H is smaller than a dimension of the elastic member 20 along the second direction V.

[0062] In the above scheme, on the one hand, since at least two elastic components 20 are arranged between the first connecting base 30 and the second connecting base 50 at intervals, the first connecting base 30 can swing relative to the second connecting base 50 along the first direction H by providing elastic force with the two elastic components 20. When the second connecting base 50 is connected to the external tooling, the docking plate 10 connected to the first connecting base 30 can adapt to the docking requirements of the external joint and swing relative to the external tooling in the first direction H, that is, the docking accuracy of the fluid docking joint 100 and the external joint can be guaranteed.

[0063] On the other hand, by making the dimension of the elastic member 20 along the first direction H smaller than the dimension of the elastic member 20 along the second direction V, the elastic stiffness of the elastic member 20 in the second direction V is relatively large, and it is not easy to deform in the second direction V. As long as the second direction V of the elastic member 20 is along the gravity direction (i.e., the vertical direction) and the first direction H is along the horizontal direction during installation, the first connection base 30 and the second connection base 50 are not easy to move relative to each other in the gravity direction. In other words, it is difficult for the docking tray 10 and the external tooling to move relative to each other in the gravity direction. When the accuracy error of the external tooling and the external joint in the gravity direction is not large, even if the weight of the docking tray 10 is large, the docking accuracy of the docking tray 10 and the external joint in the gravity direction can be effectively guaranteed, and the two can be docked smoothly and reliably.

[0064] The docking interface 11 may be disposed on an outer surface of the docking disk 10 . When the fluid docking connector 100 is docked with an external connector, the docking interface 11 is connected to the fluid interface of the external connector.

[0065] The docking tray 10 can be formed as a block or a disk as a whole, and a fluid channel for fluid flow can be formed inside the docking tray 10, and the two ends of the fluid channel are respectively used to communicate with the fluid use tooling and the external connector. The end of the fluid channel used to connect to the external connector can form the above-mentioned docking interface 11, and the end of the fluid channel used to connect to the fluid use tooling can be connected to a conversion joint, which can include, for example, a first conversion joint 12 connected to the top of the docking tray 10, and a second conversion joint 13 connected to the bottom of the docking tray 10.

[0066] In order to facilitate docking with an external connector, a docking mounting portion 14 may also be provided on the docking plate 10. Figure 1 As shown, the docking installation portion 14 can be a slot opened on the docking plate 10 .

[0067] Continue to refer to Figure 2 The first connection base 30 is connected to the side of the docking interface 11 on the docking tray 10 that is away from the fluid, that is, the first connection base 30 and the docking interface 11 are located on the opposite side of the docking tray 10, and the first connection base 30 and the second connection base 50 are located on the side of the docking tray 10 that is away from the fluid docking interface 11, and the elastic member 20 is arranged between the first connection base 30 and the second connection base 50, so that the second connection base 50, the elastic member 20, the first connection base 30, and the docking tray 10 are arranged in sequence in the docking direction D of the docking tray 10.

[0068] In a specific implementation, the elastic member 20 may include a first end connected to the first connecting base 30, a second end connected to the second connecting base 50, and an elastic portion 23 located between the first end and the second end, so that the elastic member 20 is connected between the first connecting base 30 and the second connecting base 50.

[0069] It should be noted that, in the actual application of the fluid butt joint 10 of this embodiment, the elastic member 20, the first connection base 30, and the second connection base 50 can be arranged in the following postures:

[0070] The first direction H of the elastic member 20 is arranged along the horizontal direction, the second direction V of the elastic member 20 is arranged along the vertical direction, and the third direction S of the elastic member is arranged along the docking direction of the docking tray.

[0071] In the present application embodiment, Figure 1Taking the setting of the elastic member 20 as an example, since the dimension of the elastic member 20 along the first direction H of the elastic member is smaller than the dimension of the elastic member 20 along the second direction V of the elastic member, the elastic member 20 can provide an elastic force, and the elastic force causes the first connection base 30 to have a tendency to swing relative to the second connection base 50 along the first direction H of the elastic member 20, that is, the first connection base 30 can swing left and right in the horizontal direction relative to the second connection base 50 and is not easy to swing in the vertical direction.

[0072] Exemplarily, in order to make the displacement of the elastic member in the vertical direction smaller, it can be considered that the dimension of the first direction H of the elastic member 20 is much smaller than the dimension of the second direction V of the elastic member 20. For example, the elastic part 23 can be constructed as a sheet-like member.

[0073] This means that the elastic part 23 is generally sheet-like, which means that the dimension of the first direction H of the elastic part 23 is much smaller than the dimensions of the second direction V and the third direction S. The elastic part 23 can be made of a material with a relatively large stiffness such as metal.

[0074] Further, the elastic part 23 is constructed as a bent structure that can elastically deform along the first direction H. In this way, an elastic force can be generated to enable the first connection base 30 and the second connection base 50 to move relative to each other in the horizontal direction.

[0075] Figure 4 It is a schematic structural diagram of another structure of the elastic member in the fluid docking joint provided by the embodiment of the present application.

[0076] Referring to Figure 3 、 Figure 4 , in some examples, the elastic part 23 includes a plurality of holding parts 25 arranged at intervals along the third direction S, and a joint part 26 joined between two adjacent holding parts 25. The two adjacent joint parts 26 protrude toward different sides of the holding part 25 along the first direction H to define a bent structure 23. In this way, a folded line structure or a wrinkled structure is formed on the whole elastic member 20. This folded line structure or wrinkled structure makes the elastic member 20 have a relatively large elastic stiffness in the second direction V and makes the first end and the second end of the elastic member 20 prone to relative displacement.

[0077] In the embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 , for the convenience of connecting the elastic member 20 with the first connection base 30 and the second connection base 50, the first end and the second end of the elastic member 20 are respectively provided with a first fixing part 21 and a second fixing part 22. A first mounting part 31 is provided at a position corresponding to the first fixing part 21 on the first connection base 30, and a second mounting part 51 is provided at a position corresponding to the second fixing part 22 on the second connection base 50. The first fixing part 21 is connected to the first mounting part 31, and the second fixing part 22 is connected to the second mounting part 51.

[0078] Exemplarily, both the first fixing part 21 and the second fixing part 22 are configured as flange parts protruding from the elastic member 20 in the first direction H. The first mounting part 31 is configured as a first engaging groove 32 for engaging with the first fixing part 21, and the second mounting part 51 is configured as a second engaging groove 52 for engaging with the second fixing part 22. Specifically, in implementation, the cross-sections of the first fixing part 21 and the second fixing part 22 can be in the shape of the English letter "T", and the first mounting part 31 and the second mounting part 51 can be "T" - shaped grooves. Of course, this application is not limited thereto. As long as the engagement between the first fixing part 21 and the first mounting part 31, and the engagement between the second fixing part 22 and the second mounting part 51 can be achieved, the cross-sectional shapes of the first fixing part 21 and the second fixing part 22 can be other shapes, and the cross-sectional shapes of the first mounting part 31 and the second mounting part 51 can also be other shapes.

[0079] Continuing to refer to Figure 2 , it can be understood that, for the convenience of installing the first fixing part 21 and the second fixing part 22, both the first engaging groove 32 and the second engaging groove 52 are configured as through grooves extending in the second direction V. At this time, in order to fix the first fixing part 21 and the second fixing part 22, at least two first positioning members 33 are further provided in the first engaging groove 32. The at least two first positioning members 33 are used to block both sides of the first fixing part 21 in the second direction V when the first fixing part 21 is engaged in the first engaging groove 32; and / or

[0080] At least two second positioning members 53 are further provided in the second engaging groove 52. The at least two second positioning members 53 are used to block both sides of the second fixing part 22 in the second direction V when the second fixing part 22 is engaged in the second engaging groove 52. Here, the outer contour shape of the first positioning member 33 is adapted to the first engaging groove 32, that is, it is formed as a "T" - shaped member, and the outer contour shape of the second positioning member 53 is adapted to the second engaging groove 52, and can also be formed as a "T" - shaped member.

[0081] It can be understood that, for the convenience of maintaining, disassembling and assembling the elastic member 20, a first buffer layer (not shown) is provided between the first engaging groove 32 and the first positioning member 33, and a second buffer layer (not shown) can also be provided between the second engaging groove 52 and the second positioning member 53.

[0082] Figure 5 This is a top view of the fluid docking joint provided by the embodiment of the present application.

[0083] In addition, Figure 3 、 Figure 5In the example, it is described by taking three holding portions 25 and two engaging portions 26 formed on the elastic member 20 as an example. At this time, one engaging portion 26 and the holding portions 25 at both ends of one engaging portion 26 define a first bending section 231, and the other engaging portion 26 and the holding portions 25 at both ends of the other engaging portion 26 define a second bending section 232. The elastic portion 23 further includes two straight sections 24; the head and tail ends of one straight section 24 (for example, the straight section located on the upper side of the Figure 3 drawing surface) are respectively connected to the first fixing portion 21 and the head end of the first bending section 231; the tail end and the head end of the other straight section 24 (for example, the straight section located on the lower side of the Figure 3 drawing surface) are respectively connected to the second fixing portion 22 and the tail end of the second bending section 232.

[0084] It can be understood that the number of the engaging portions 26 and the holding portions 25 can also be set as required. For example, referring to Figure 4 , the number of the holding portions 25 can be five, and the number of the engaging portions 26 can be four..

[0085] In other cases where the number of the holding portions 25 and the engaging portions 26 is other, the arrangement between adjacent engaging portions 26, the connection between one straight section and the adjacent engaging portion 26, and the connection between the other straight section and the adjacent engaging portion 26 are similar to the above, and will not be elaborated here.

[0086] In the embodiment of the present application, continuing to refer to Figure 2 , the number of the elastic members 20 is at least two, and at least two elastic members 20 are arranged at intervals in the first direction H. This can improve the load-bearing capacity of the elastic members 20 and can avoid the gravity of the docking plate 10 causing the elastic members 20 to deform in the second direction V. It should be noted that in this embodiment, it is described by taking the number of the elastic members 20 as two as an example. For other cases where the number of the elastic members 20 is other, it is similar to this, and will not be elaborated here.

[0087] In addition, it can be understood that when the number of the elastic members 20 is at least two, the elastic members 20 are arranged parallel to each other, that is, the installation postures of the elastic members 20 are the same. This can make the deformation conditions of the elastic members 20 roughly the same, and the deformation conditions at the corresponding positions on the elastic members 20 are also roughly the same.

[0089] Reference Figure 6 、 Figure 7 In an embodiment of the present application, a fluid docking mechanism 300 is further provided, including the above-mentioned fluid docking joint 100. It can be understood that the structure, function, working principle, etc. of the fluid docking joint 100 have been described in detail above and will not be elaborated here.

[0090] In some examples, the number of fluid docking joints is two. One fluid docking joint 100' is in communication with a fluid supply source, and the other fluid docking joint 100'' is in communication with a fluid usage tooling, so as to connect the fluid usage tooling with the fluid supply source when the two fluid docking joints 100', 100'' are docked. Specifically, the second connection base 50' in the fluid docking joint 100' is connected to a driving device described later, and the second connection base 50'' in the fluid docking joint 100'' is connected to the fluid usage tooling.

[0091] Exemplarily, docking mounting portions are provided on the docking disks of each fluid docking joint, and the two fluid docking joints 100', 100'' are docked through the respectively provided docking mounting portions 14', 14'', so that the docking interfaces 11', 11'' in the two fluid docking joints 100', 100'' are sealed and conducted.

[0092] The connection between the two docking mounting portions 14', 14'' can be snap connection, plug connection, etc. Here, the plug connection of the two docking mounting portions 14', 14'' is taken as an example for illustration.

[0093] Reference Figure 7 、 Figure 8 , the docking mounting portion 14' on the fluid docking joint 100' is an insertion pin 201, and the docking mounting portion 14'' on the fluid docking joint 100'' is configured as a slot 202 for the insertion pin 201 to insert;

[0094] A jacking member 2011 capable of moving radially along the insertion pin 201 is provided on the outer surface of the insertion pin 201. The jacking member 2011 is used to press against the inner wall of the slot 202 when the insertion pin 201 is inserted into the slot 202. In this way, the positioning of the insertion pin 201 and the slot 202 in the docking direction D can be realized.

[0095] Continuing to refer to Figure 8 , the fluid docking mechanism 300 further includes a driving assembly 310. The driving assembly 310 is used to drive one of the fluid docking joints 100' to dock with the other fluid docking joint 100'', or drive one of the fluid docking joints 100' to disengage from the other fluid docking joint 100''.

[0096] Specifically, the driving component 310 includes a cylinder 311 and a cylinder bracket 320. The cylinder 311 is fixed on the cylinder bracket 320. A backing plate 312 is provided at the end of the piston rod of the cylinder 311. The second connection base 50' in the fluid docking joint 100' is connected to the backing plate 312. When the cylinder 311 works and the piston extends or retracts, the second connection base 50' is driven to extend or retract through the backing plate 312.

[0097] The cylinder bracket 320 includes a base 321, an integral frame 322 disposed on the base 321, and a dust cover 324 covering the integral frame 322. The integral frame 322 is fixed on the base 321 by adjusting bolts 323 and the relative height with the base 321 can be adjusted through the adjusting bolts 323. The dust cover 324 covers the outside of the integral frame 322. The cylinder bracket 320 further includes a cylinder base 325. The cylinder base 325 is connected to the integral frame 322, and the cylinder 311 is fixed on the cylinder base 325, that is, the cylinder 311 is fixed on the integral frame 322 through the cylinder base 325.

[0098] In addition, the cylinder bracket 320 further includes a bellows cover 326, a bellows cover front mounting plate 327, and a trachea tray 328.

[0099] Wherein, the bellows cover front mounting plate 327 is fixed on the backing plate 312, so that both ends of the bellows cover 326 can be respectively connected to the integral frame 322 and the bellows cover front mounting plate 327, and thus the bellows cover 326 can cover the outside of the cylinder 311.

[0100] The trachea tray 328 is fixed on the surface of the bellows cover front mounting plate 327 and is covered inside the bellows cover 326. In addition, a front trachea socket strip 329 and a rear trachea socket strip 330 are also provided inside the cylinder bracket 320. Among them, the front trachea socket strip 329 is installed on the bellows cover front mounting plate 327, the rear trachea socket strip 330 is installed on the integral frame 322, and the front trachea socket strip 329 and the rear trachea socket strip 330 are connected by a trachea. The trachea can be supported on the trachea tray 328. The front trachea socket strip 329 can communicate with the first conversion joint 12' on the fluid docking joint 100', and the rear trachea socket strip 330 can communicate with the fluid supply source.

[0101] In this way, when the fluid docking joint 100' and the fluid docking joint 100” are docked, the fluid in the fluid supply source passes through the rear trachea socket strip 330, the trachea (not shown), the front trachea socket strip 329, the first conversion joint 12' (or the second conversion joint 13'), the fluid channel (not shown) in the fluid docking joint 100', the fluid channel (not shown) in the fluid docking joint 100”, the first conversion joint 12”, and the second conversion joint 13” and then enters the fluid using tooling.

[0102] In the above solution, the height and horizontal angle of the overall frame 322 can be changed by adjusting the height of the adjusting bolt 323, achieving good effects.

[0103] In addition, the dust cover 324 and the bellows cover 326 can provide a sealed space for the cylinder 311, having a dust-proof function. And the setting of the air pipe tray 328 can also prevent the interference between the air pipe and the cylinder 311.

[0104] The working process of the fluid docking tooling in the embodiment of the present application is described below.

[0105] When the fluid docking joint 100” reaches the docking range of the fluid docking joint 100', the cylinder 311 acts, and its piston rod pushes the backing plate 312 to drive the second connection base 50' in the fluid docking joint 100' to move in the direction approaching the first connection base 30”. The docking installation part 14' in the fluid docking joint 100' is docked with the docking installation part 14” in the fluid docking joint 100”, that is, the insertion pin 201 is inserted into the slot 202.

[0106] When the docking interface 11' in the fluid docking joint 100' is hermetically connected to the docking interface 11” in the fluid docking joint 100”, the lifting part 2011 in the insertion pin 201 is lifted to the wall of the slot 202, realizing the locking of the fluid docking joint 100' and the fluid docking joint 100”, and realizing the connection of the fluid between the fluid usage tooling and the fluid supply source.

[0107] When the docking is released, the lifting part 2011 retracts into the insertion pin 201, and the piston rod in the cylinder 311 retracts, driving the backing plate 312 and the second connection base 50' in the fluid docking joint 100' to move in the direction away from the first connection base 30”. The fluid docking joint 100' and the fluid docking joint 100” are separated.

[0108] Figure 8 It is a schematic structural diagram of the workpiece processing device 500 provided by the embodiment of the present application.

[0109] Refer to Figure 8 , the embodiment of the present application also provides a workpiece processing device 500, including a clamping mechanism 510 and the above-mentioned fluid docking mechanism 300. The fluid docking joint 100' in the fluid docking mechanism 300 is arranged on the clamping mechanism 510, and the fluid docking joint 100' is arranged on the fluid usage tooling.

[0110] Among them, the specific structure, function, working principle, etc. of the fluid docking mechanism 300 have been described in detail above and will not be elaborated here.

[0111] In this embodiment, a clamping mechanism 510 is provided at the machining station of the workpiece 400. The clamping mechanism 510 includes a clamping mechanism main body 511 and legs 512 supported on the lower side of the clamping mechanism main body 511. The workpiece 400 can be clamped on the clamping mechanism main body 511.

[0112] Specifically, the fluid docking joint 100' can be arranged on the clamping mechanism 510, for example, on the legs 512. The fluid docking joint 100' can communicate with the fluid supply source. The fluid docking joint 100'' can be relatively fixed to the tooling (fluid-using tooling) for machining the workpiece 400. For example, both the fluid docking joint 100'' and the fluid-using tooling can be arranged on a movable AGV cart.

[0113] When the fluid-using tooling needs to machine Figure 8 the position shown on the right side of the drawing, the AGV cart can carry the fluid-using tooling and the fluid docking joint 100'' to dock with the fluid docking joint 100' shown on the right side, so that the fluid supply source supplies fluid to the fluid-using tooling. When the machining of the right side position of the workpiece 400 is completed and it is necessary to machine other positions of the workpiece 400, such as the middle part of the workpiece 400, the AGV cart can carry the fluid-using tooling and the fluid docking joint 100'' to Figure 8 dock with the fluid docking joint 100' shown in the middle of the drawing, so that the fluid supply source supplies fluid to the fluid-using tooling. Of course, the installation position of the fluid docking joint 100' is not limited to this and can be set according to actual needs.

[0114] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity of description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered as the scope described in this specification.

The description is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of the invention patent. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several deformations and improvements can be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the invention patent should be subject to the appended claims.
