DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0027] As Figures 1-7 shown, an electric spark coating device includes a fixed seat 1 and an electric spark coating gun 11. A disc 2 is rotatably connected to the top of the fixed seat 1. A clamping mechanism for clamping a workpiece is provided on the disc 2. A servo motor 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed seat 1. The output end of the servo motor 4 passes through the inside of the fixed seat 1 and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the disc 2. Support plates 5 are fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the fixed seat 1. A fixed box 6 is fixedly connected between the support plates 5. An inclined block 7 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the disc 2. A pair of fixing plates 8 are fixedly connected to the bottom end inside the fixed box 6. A transmission rod 9 is rotatably connected between the fixing plates 8. A sliding block 10 is slidably connected through the bottom of the fixed box 6 at a position corresponding to the inclined block 7. The inclined surface at the bottom of the sliding block 10 is in contact with the inclined surface at the top of the inclined block 7. A sliding groove 12 is formed at the top of the sliding block 10. A first rack 13 is slidably connected to the inside of the sliding groove 12. A first gear 14 meshing with the first rack 13 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the transmission rod 9 at a position corresponding to the first rack 13. A first spring 15 is fixedly connected between the inside of the sliding groove 12 and the side wall of the first rack 13;

[0028] A ratchet mechanism for preventing reverse rotation is provided on the outer wall of the transmission rod 9. A U-shaped frame 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom end inside the fixed box 6 and located behind the first rack 13. An extrusion inclined block 17 is hinged to the back side of the first rack 13. An inclined groove 18 in contact with the inclined surface of the extrusion inclined block 17 is formed at the bottom of the U-shaped frame 16. A through groove 19 is formed at the middle position of the bottom of the fixed box 6. A second rack 20 is slidably connected to the top of the through groove 19 and penetrates through the front side of the fixed box 6. A second gear 21 meshing with the second rack 20 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the transmission rod 9 at a position corresponding to the second rack 20. The electric spark coating gun 11 is arranged below the second rack 20. A fourth spring 27 is fixedly connected between the top end inside the fixed box 6 and the top of the first rack 13. Limiting plates 22 are fixedly connected to both sides of the first rack 13. A second spring 23 is fixedly connected between the limiting plates 22 and the side wall of the extrusion inclined block 17;

[0029] When coating the upper surface of a circular workpiece, first clamp the workpiece on the disc 2 through the clamping mechanism. Then, control the servo motor 4 to start and drive the disc 2 to rotate, and at the same time drive the lower inclined block 7 to rotate. When the lower inclined block 7 rotates one circle, it will squeeze the upper inclined block 10 upward, and then drive the first rack 13 to slide upward. Thus, through the squeezing of the inclined groove 18 on the squeezing inclined block 17, at this time, the side wall of the first rack 13 will limit the downward flipping position of the squeezing inclined block 17. Therefore, when the squeezing inclined block 17 slides to the side wall of the U-shaped frame 16, it will squeeze the first rack 13 to slide to the meshing position with the first gear 14, and at the same time stretch the first spring 15. Subsequently, through the continuous movement of the first rack 13, it will drive the meshing first gear 14 to rotate, and at the same time compress the fourth spring 27. Then, through the transmission rod 9, it will drive the second gear 21 on the other side to rotate, and further drive the meshing second rack 20 to move. Thus, by rotating the disc 2 one circle, the electric spark coating gun 11 is driven to move a part. Repeating this process can achieve the full coating of the workpiece;

[0030] Meanwhile, when the lower inclined block 7 moves out and releases the extrusion on the upper inclined block 10, at this time, the squeezing inclined block 17 slides to the top of the U-shaped frame 16. Then, through the pulling force of the first spring 15, the first rack 13 slides out of the meshing position with the first gear 14. Then, through the elastic force of the fourth spring 27, the first rack 13 is pushed downward. At the same time, the side wall of the U-shaped frame 16 will squeeze the squeezing inclined block 17 to turn over, and at the same time stretch the second spring 23 to prevent the first rack 13 from driving the first gear 14 to rotate during the return journey. Subsequently, when the first rack 13 returns to its original position, it will drive the squeezing inclined block 17 to slide out of the extrusion position with the U-shaped frame 16. Then, through the elastic force of the second spring 23, the squeezing inclined block 17 is pulled to turn over and reset.

[0031] To prevent the reverse rotation of the first gear 14 from affecting the stability of the adjusted electric spark coating gun 11, the ratchet mechanism includes a ratchet 24 and a ratchet block 25. The ratchet 24 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the transmission rod 9. A recessed groove is provided on the front side of the fixed box 6. The middle of the ratchet block 25 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the groove and the end is engaged with the outer wall of the ratchet 24. A third spring 26 is fixedly connected between the front side of the fixed box 6 and the top of the ratchet block 25. When the first rack 13 drives the first gear 14 to rotate, the ratchet 24 will be driven to rotate simultaneously through the transmission rod 9. Since one end of the tooth block of the ratchet 24 is arc-shaped, when the ratchet 24 rotates, it will drive the ratchet block 25 to slide out of the engagement position. Subsequently, when the first gear 14 stops rotating, the ratchet block 25 will continue to be stuck in the tooth groove to ensure that the first gear 14 and the ratchet 24 will not rotate in reverse,

[0032] A scroll spring 35 is fixedly connected between the side wall of the first gear 14 and the outer wall of the transmission rod 9. Thus, after the workpiece coating is completed, the ratchet block 25 can be pressed downward. Since the middle of the ratchet block 25 is hinged in the groove, and when the first gear 14 rotates, the scroll spring 35 will be gradually compressed, and then the third spring 26 will be stretched, thereby driving the ratchet block 25 at the other end to slide out of the engagement position. Subsequently, the first gear 14 will be driven to reverse by the elastic force of the scroll spring 35, and then drive the electric spark coating gun 11 to reset. Finally, when the ratchet block 25 is released, the ratchet block 25 will be pulled back to its original position by the elastic force of the third spring 26, and at the same time, the other end of the ratchet block 25 will be driven to snap into the outer wall of the ratchet wheel 24.

[0033] In order to facilitate the flexible adjustment of the coating starting position according to the processing requirements, an L-shaped plate 28 is slidably connected to the bottom of the second rack 20. The bottom of the L-shaped plate 28 is fixedly connected with a mounting plate 29. The electric spark coating gun 11 is bolted to the front side of the mounting plate 29. A screw 30 is threadedly connected to the bottom of the L-shaped plate 28, and the top of the screw 30 abuts against the bottom of the second rack 20. When the position of the electric spark coating gun 11 needs to be adjusted, first use a tool to screw out the screw 30 to relieve the extrusion of the bottom of the second rack 20, then the L-shaped plate 28 can be slid on the bottom of the second rack 20 to move, so as to realize the position adjustment of the electric spark coating gun 11. After the adjustment is completed, use a tool to tighten the screw 30 in the reverse direction to squeeze the bottom of the second rack 20.

[0034] In order to facilitate the precise adjustment of the position of the electric spark coating gun 11, a scale plate 31 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second rack 20 through a through groove 19. A pointer 32 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the L-shaped plate 28. A dimension groove 33 is opened at the bottom of the scale plate 31. When sliding the L-shaped plate 28 to adjust the position of the electric spark coating gun 11, the position of the pointer 32 on the dimension groove 33 can be observed to know the specific position of the adjustment of the electric spark coating gun 11.

[0035] In order to facilitate the clamping and fixing of workpieces of different sizes, the clamping mechanism includes clamping plates 3. There are a pair of clamping plates 3. An inwardly recessed adjustment groove is opened at the top of the disc 2. A bidirectional lead screw 34 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the adjustment groove. The bottoms of the clamping plates 3 are both threadedly connected to the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw 34. A hand wheel 36 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the bidirectional lead screw 34 passing through the disc 2. When clamping and fixing a circular workpiece, first place the workpiece between the clamping plates 3 on the disc 2, and then rotate the hand wheel 36 to drive the bidirectional lead screw 34 to rotate, thereby driving the two clamping plates 3 connected by threads to move towards each other to clamp and fix both sides of the workpiece. When taking out, rotate the hand wheel 36 in the reverse direction.

[0036] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments, and what is described in the above embodiments and the specification is only the principle of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, various changes and improvements will occur to the present invention, and all these changes and improvements fall within the scope of the present invention claimed. The scope of protection required by the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
