All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0033] Please refer to Figures 1-6 , the present invention provides a technical solution: a quick clamping mechanism for a vertical balancing machine, including: a fixed plate 1, a main shaft seat 2, a vibration plate 3 and a pneumatic clamping assembly 4. There are two vibration plates 3 arranged in parallel between the fixed plate 1 and the main shaft seat 2. One side of the vibration plate 3 is fixedly installed on the main shaft seat 2, and the opposite side is fixedly installed on the fixed plate 1.
[0034] The pneumatic clamping assembly 4 includes a cylinder block 41, a piston 42, and a spreading member 43. The cylinder block 41 is rotatably installed in the spindle base 2. An air inlet joint 411 is provided at one end of the cylinder block 41, and a product positioning groove 412 is provided at the opposite end. The air inlet joint 411 communicates with the cavity inside the cylinder block 41. The piston 42 is elastically connected in the cavity of the cylinder block 41. An elastic element 421 (specifically, a spring can be used) is provided between the piston 42 and the cylinder block 41. A positioning rod 422 is provided on the back surface of the piston 42. The positioning rod 422 passes through the bottom surface of the product positioning groove 412. An expansion block 423 is provided at the end of the positioning rod 422. The spreading member 43 is sleeved on the positioning rod 422. An opening is provided on the side wall of the spreading member 43, so that the spreading member 43 can expand and open or contract and fit the positioning rod 422 to realize product clamping and positioning and loosening. A flange 431 is provided at the top of the spreading member 43. A first inclined surface 432 is provided on the outer side wall of the spreading member 43. A second inclined surface 413 corresponding to the first inclined surface 432 in position is provided on the inner wall of the cylinder block 41. A third inclined surface 433 is provided on the inner side wall of the spreading member 43. A fourth inclined surface 4231 corresponding to the third inclined surface 433 in position is provided at the bottom of the expansion block 423.
[0035] A first mounting block 21 is provided at the bottom of the spindle base 2. A second mounting block 11 is provided on the fixing plate 1. A first insulating member 61 and a second insulating member 62 are respectively provided on both sides of the detection sensor 6. One side of the first insulating member 61 contacts the first mounting block 21, and the opposite side contacts the detection sensor 6. A locking screw 111 is provided on the second mounting block 11. The locking screw 111 is threadedly connected to the second mounting block 11. The end of the locking screw 111 contacts the second insulating member 62. A through hole 31 corresponding to the locking screw 111 in position is provided on the vibration plate 3. Concave pits and convex platforms with shapes matching the detection sensor 6 can be provided on both the first insulating member 61 and the second insulating member 62 to ensure the positioning effect of the detection sensor 6.
[0036] The first insulating member 61 and the second insulating member 62 cooperate to clamp the detection sensor 6 between the first mounting block 21 and the second mounting block 11. The locking screw 111 is used to adjust the clamping force. When the driving motor 5 drives the cylinder block 41 to rotate through the transmission belt 51, the product to be clamped rotates accordingly. When the product rotates, due to imbalance, it will shake. The shaking is transmitted to the first mounting block 21 through the spindle base 2, and the distance between the first mounting block 21 and the second mounting block 11 changes, and the pressure received by the detection sensor 6 changes accordingly. The detection sensor 6 converts the pressure change amount into an electrical signal and transmits it to the controller, so as to calculate the imbalance amount of the product and realize the imbalance test of the product.
[0037] A driving motor 5 is provided on the fixing plate 1. A driven wheel 414 is sleeved on the cylinder block 41. The transmission end of the driving motor 5 is connected to the driven wheel 414 through a transmission belt 51. The driving motor 5 drives the cylinder block 41 to rotate through the transmission belt 51, thereby driving the product positioned in the product positioning groove 412 to rotate.
[0038] A plurality of bearings 44 arranged along the axial direction of the cylinder block 41 are provided on the cylinder block 41. The inner ring of the bearing 44 is sleeved on the cylinder block 41, and the outer ring of the bearing 44 contacts the inner wall of the main shaft seat 2, realizing the rotatable installation of the cylinder block 41.
[0039] A first annular protrusion 22 is provided on the top surface of the main shaft seat 2. A second annular protrusion 415 corresponding to the first annular protrusion 22 in position is provided on the cylinder block 41. The diameter of the second annular protrusion 415 is larger than that of the first annular protrusion 22. The first annular protrusion 22 cooperates with the second annular protrusion 415 to form a "labyrinth" - shaped sealing structure between the main shaft seat 2 and the cylinder block 41, preventing sundries from entering the gap between the main shaft seat 2 and the cylinder block 41 and ensuring the stable rotation of the cylinder block 41. In addition, a "labyrinth" - shaped sealing structure can also be realized when the diameter of the second annular protrusion 415 is smaller than that of the first annular protrusion 22.
[0040] A scale plate 45 is provided on the top of the cylinder block 41, which is convenient for judging the rotation angle of the product after the product is clamped and positioned.
[0041] Working principle: When clamping the product, first, compressed air is introduced into the cylinder block 41 through the air inlet joint 411. The piston 42 drives the positioning rod 422 to move upward. At this time, since the first inclined surface 432 of the spreading member 43 is squeezed by the second inclined surface 413 during the upward movement, the spreading member 43 contracts and fits the positioning rod 422, and the flange 431 at the top of the spreading member 43 is blocked or hidden by the expansion block 423. In this way, the product can be inserted into the product positioning groove 412. After the product is inserted in place, the compressed air is turned off, and the piston 42 is reset (moves downward) under the action of the elastic element 421, driving the positioning rod 422 to move downward. At this time, since the first inclined surface 432 of the spreading member 43 on the positioning rod 422 is no longer squeezed by the second inclined surface 413 during the downward movement, and at the same time, the expansion block 423 contacts the third inclined surface 433 through the fourth inclined surface 4231, the spreading member 43 is expanded, and the spreading member 43 presses the product through the flange 431, realizing the automatic clamping of the product. When the pneumatic clamping assembly 4 clamps the product, it uses a spring and compressed air to act inside, with simple clamping, fast speed, compact structure, and stable and reliable performance.
[0042] The above are only the preferred specific embodiments of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
