As Figure 1 As shown, the end cover 9 and the top plate 2 are respectively located at the axial ends of the cylinder body 8.

[0042] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned fluid source can be a gas source or a liquid source. When the fluid source is a gas source, the piston shaft 5 and the piston cylinder 6 form a cylinder structure, and if the fluid source is a liquid source, the piston shaft 5 and the piston cylinder 6 form a hydraulic cylinder structure. As a preferred embodiment, the fluid source is set as a gas source in this embodiment, and further, it can be a compressed gas source. The compressed gas source includes components such as gas cylinders, connecting pipes and air pumps, which are existing components and are not described here.

[0044] In this embodiment, the end cover 9 can be fixed to the axial second end of the cylinder body 8 by a plurality of screws 12, such as three screws 12, and the three screws 12 are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction. Figure 7 As shown, the branch flow channel 11 is a semi-tube structure, which does not form a closed circumference, but a semicircular channel structure. In order to avoid air leakage, an annular sealing ring 13 can be provided between the end cover 9 and the cylinder body 8, and any piston cylinder 6 and any branch flow channel 11 are located in the inner ring of the annular sealing ring 13 to avoid leakage when the compressed gas source injects gas into the piston cylinder 6. As a preferred solution, a sealing ring mounting groove 14 can be provided at the second axial end of the cylinder body 8, that is, on the end face of the cylinder body 8 close to the end cover 9. The sealing ring mounting groove 14 is a closed-loop structure, and any piston cylinder 6 and any branch flow channel 11 are located in the inner ring of the sealing ring mounting groove 14. The annular sealing ring 13 is embedded in the sealing ring mounting groove 14. When the end cover 9 and the cylinder body 8 are connected by screws 12, the annular sealing ring 13 will be squeezed and deformed, thereby forming an end cover sealing structure between the end cover 9 and the cylinder body 8.

[0045] In this embodiment, the end cap 9 is provided with a pipe joint 15 that communicates with the main channel 10. This pipe joint 15 is located on the outer surface of the end cap 9 and is connected to the long side of the main channel 10. This allows connection to a compressed gas source when the clamping force of the top plate 2 needs to be adjusted. This pipe joint 15 is preferably a GB / T3754.1-1983 ferrule-type butt-end straight-through pipe joint G256.

[0046] In this embodiment, the axial first end of the cylinder body 8, that is, the center of the end surface close to the top plate 2, is provided with a support shaft mounting hole coaxial therewith, and the axial second end of the support shaft 1 is provided with a support shaft step, and the axial second end of the support shaft 1, that is, the end close to the cylinder body 8, is inserted into the support shaft mounting hole, and after the support shaft step is pressed by the support shaft pressure plate 16, the support shaft pressure plate 16 is fixed to the step end surface of the support shaft mounting hole by the screw 17, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 shown.

[0047] In this embodiment, the cylinder body 8 is preferably provided with three piston cylinders 6, and the three piston cylinders 6 are evenly distributed on the periphery of the support shaft 1. Figure 7 As shown, three branch flow channels 11 are correspondingly provided and are respectively connected to the three cylinders 6 - 1 .

[0048] In this embodiment, the end surface of any piston shaft 5 close to the top plate 2 is set as a spherical end surface 5-1, and the side surface of the top plate 2 provided with the spherical concave surface is further provided with grooves 2-1 with the same number as the piston shaft 5. The grooves 2-1 are provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the piston shaft 5, and the piston shaft 5 is plugged into the corresponding groove 2-1. The groove 2-1 is a cylindrical groove with a flat bottom and a cylindrical side wall. Figure 5 As shown, the top of the spherical end surface 5 - 1 of the piston shaft 5 abuts against the bottom of the groove 2 - 1 , and an annular offset swing gap 18 is left between the annular side wall of the groove 2 - 1 and the outer wall of the piston shaft 5 .

[0049] In this embodiment, a connection piece for mounting a chuck is provided on the side of the top plate 2 that is away from the spherical groove, i.e., the side away from the cylinder body 8. The chuck is generally a three-jaw chuck to clamp the valve seat. Based on the structure of the three-jaw chuck, the connection piece can be provided as three connection flanges 19 evenly distributed along the circumference, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to adapt to three-jaw chucks of different specifications, three sets of connecting parts can be set on the side of the top plate 2 away from its spherical groove. The three connecting flanges 19 of each set of connecting parts are evenly distributed around the circumference. The connecting flanges 19 of the three sets of connecting parts are respectively located on three different circular rings. The three circular rings form a concentric circular ring structure with the support shaft screw 3 as the center. As a further preferred solution, Figure 2As shown, a reference line is set at every 120° central angle with the support shaft screw 3 as the center of the circle, and the three connecting flanges 19 of each group of connecting parts are respectively set on the three reference lines.

[0050] In this embodiment, a connector for connecting to a manipulator or a drive shaft is provided on the side of the end cap 9 away from the cylinder body 8. This connector may also be a connecting flange 19. As a preferred embodiment, three connecting flanges 19 may be provided on the side of the end cap 9 away from the cylinder body 8, and the three connecting flanges 19 may be evenly distributed around the circumference.

[0051] In this embodiment, a sealing ring 20 and a guide wear-resistant ring 21 are provided between the outer wall of each piston shaft 5 and the inner wall of the corresponding cylinder barrel 6-1 of the piston cylinder 6. The sealing ring 20 is preferably an O-ring, embedded in a sealing ring groove on the outer wall of the piston shaft 5, while the guide wear-resistant ring 21 is embedded in a groove on the inner wall of the cylinder barrel 6-1. Preferably, the guide wear-resistant ring 21 is provided at the cylinder mouth of the piston cylinder 6, and the sealing ring 20 is provided at the end of the piston shaft 5 away from the top plate 2. The provision of the sealing ring 20 creates a closed air cavity between the end of the piston shaft 5 away from the top plate 2 and the bottom of the piston cylinder 6. This closed air cavity communicates with the aforementioned branch flow channel 11, thereby adjusting the axial movement of the piston shaft 5 by changing the volume of this closed air cavity. Preferably, this embodiment may also include a dustproof sealing ring 23 at the cylinder mouth of the piston cylinder 6 to ensure that the interior of the piston cylinder 6 remains clean during movement of the piston shaft 5 and prevent dust from entering the piston cylinder 6. The dustproof sealing ring 23 may be an A-type rubber dustproof sealing ring.

[0052] In this embodiment, each piston cylinder 6 is equipped with a muffler 22. The muffler 22 is disposed on the outer wall of the cylinder body 8 and communicates with the interior of the piston cylinder 6. The muffler 22 is a conventional noise reduction device that reduces the noise generated when the compressed air source inflates the piston cylinder 6.

[0053] In this embodiment, the screws 12 and 17 used are preferably hexagon socket head screws.

[0054] The working principle of the chuck 100 of this embodiment is described in detail below. The elastic member 7 is preferably a cylinder spring, and specifically a cylindrical helical compression spring such as Figure 4 As shown, in actual operation, the cylindrical helical compression spring is placed between the piston shaft 5 and the end cover 9 in a compressed state, and the two ends of the cylindrical helical compression spring are respectively abutted against or connected to the tail of the piston shaft 5 and the end cover 9.

[0055] The chuck 100 is specifically a universal chuck with adjustable preload, which is essentially a flexible chuck. In the structure of the chuck 100, the top plate 2 contacts the spherical end surface 5-1 of the piston shaft 5, and the three piston shafts 5 are respectively supported by three cylinder springs (cylindrical helical compression springs) so that the spherical end surface 5-1 can always fit (contact) with the bottom end surface of the groove on the top plate 2 under the action of the springs, so that the top plate 2 can swing universally with the convex spherical surface of the support shaft screw 3 as the center within the design range, while having a suitable preload. Generally, the elastic force of the cylinder spring (cylindrical helical compression spring) is relatively small. When a larger preload is required, it is necessary to connect a compressed air source with a filtered pressure reducing valve to the pipe joint 15 on the outer circle of the end cover 9, and apply the air source pressure to the rear end of the piston shaft 5 (the end away from the top plate 2), thereby increasing the preload of the top plate 2 and achieving the effect of adjusting the pressing force between the valve seat sealing surface on the top plate 2 and the spherical surface of the sphere.

[0056] The universal adjustment form of the top plate 2 in the above-mentioned chuck of the present technical solution is realized based on the floating gap 4 between the support shaft screw 3 and the top plate 2 and the three-point support structure of the piston shaft 5. Specifically, the universal adjustment of the top plate 2 is achieved by passing compressed air into the piston cylinder 6. At the same time, the pressing force of the piston shaft 5 on the top plate 2 is increased. In actual operation, the pre-tightening force of the top plate 2 is achieved by jointly adjusting the pressure of the cylinder spring (cylindrical helical compression spring) and the compressed air. The chuck 100 of the present technical solution can not only compensate for the position accuracy between the valve seat sealing surface and the spherical surface of the sphere through the universal adjustment of the top plate 2, but also increase the pre-tightening force of the top plate on the valve seat by filling compressed air, thereby ensuring in real time that the valve seat sealing surface is always pressed against the spherical surface of the sphere, thereby ensuring the grinding effect and grinding accuracy.

[0057] It should be noted that it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, from all perspectives, the embodiments should be regarded as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. It is intended that all changes that fall within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims be included in the present invention, and any reference signs in the claims should not be construed as limiting the claims to which they relate.

At the same time, those skilled in the art will find that the specific implementation methods and application scopes may vary based on the concept of the present invention.
