Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of bench vises, and particularly to a multifunctional bench vise with a quick-change jaw. Background Art

[0002] A bench vise, also known as a table vise, is a general fixture for clamping workpieces. The bench vise includes a movable jaw body and a fixed jaw body. A movable jaw is installed on the movable jaw body through screws, and a fixed jaw is installed on the fixed jaw body through screws. The workpiece is placed inside the jaws, and by moving the movable jaw body towards the fixed jaw body, the movable jaw and the fixed jaw cooperate to clamp the workpiece.

[0003] The working surfaces of the movable jaw and the fixed jaw are generally flat. In actual work, relatively few workpieces are regular bodies. Due to the special outer contour of the workpiece, the traditional flat jaws cannot adjust the degree of fit with the workpiece surface according to the actual situation, resulting in unreliable clamping. If the workpiece is forcibly clamped, it is easy to damage the surface or the body of the workpiece, affecting the surface accuracy of the finished product. In the prior art, in order to clamp cylindrical workpieces with different diameters, V-shaped grooves or semi-circular grooves are often provided on the working surfaces of the jaws. By replacing the jaws, the clamping requirements for workpieces of different sizes can be met. Since the jaws are installed on the jaw body through screws, when replacing the jaws, it is necessary to first move the movable jaw body a certain distance relative to the fixed jaw body, and then use an Allen wrench to remove the jaws from the jaw body, and then install the new jaws on the jaw body through screws. After the bench vise has been used for a period of time, oil stains are likely to accumulate on the jaws. When disassembling the screws, it is necessary to clean the oil stains first. Not only is the disassembly and assembly efficiency low, but also the space between the two jaws is limited, and it is easy to hurt the hand during disassembly and assembly, bringing inconvenience to the use process.

[0004] In addition, in the prior art, workpieces with a taper are generally clamped by jaws with flat working surfaces, resulting in an unreliable state. If jaws with different tapers are machined according to the workpiece taper, it will not only lead to too many types of jaw bodies, which is not convenient for storage, increase the processing cost, but also make the disassembly inconvenient.
