[0002] Transmission lines are the main components of the power system, and transmission lines are erected by transmission towers. The transmission towers are mainly composed of bolt-fastened profiles. The acceptance quality and subsequent maintenance of the bolts connecting the profiles are crucial to the stable operation of the power system.
[0003] Maintenance of the bolts mentioned above requires a special wrench, namely a torque wrench, which can be set according to the position of the bolts on the profiles, and can largely tighten or replace the bolts at different positions on the transmission tower frame;
[0004] However, the torque wrenches currently used have a sleeve installed on their clamping part, which is used to tighten or replace the bolts on the transmission tower frame. However, the bolts on the transmission tower frame have different diameters, and various sleeves that match the bolt diameters are required to perform the tightening or replacement operations. This will cause the following problems:
[0005] 1. When dealing with bolts of different diameters, it is necessary to frequently replace the sleeve that matches the bolt specifications, resulting in long service time and low efficiency;
[0006] Second, the socket is usually installed on one side of the end of the wrench. For the bolt position on the transmission tower frame, the wrench cannot be used due to the position of the bolt. Due to factors such as the narrow space, the wrench cannot be rotated, resulting in the inability to replace or tighten the bolt. Summary of the Invention

[0035] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0039] (4) The torque wrench mentioned in the present invention can effectively solve the problem of bolt tightening on the existing transmission tower through the wrench clamping mechanism at the front end. The construction environment is harsh, and when people work at height, it is inconvenient to use the tightening wrench due to the flange skirt around the bolt, which poses a high safety hazard to workers after working for a long time. It is convenient for construction workers to operate and improves work efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0055] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of the present invention easier to understand, the present invention is further explained below with reference to specific illustrations.
[0056] Example 1
[0057] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a wrench clamping mechanism includes a flange fixing part 1, a screw member and a clamping assembly. The bolt clamped by the clamping assembly is used as a reference, that is, in the axial direction and the radial direction. A clamping assembly is installed on one end face of the flange fixing part 1. The clamping assembly includes a fixing block 19 and a plurality of flange clamping rods 3. The flange fixing part 1 is sleeved on the outside of the fixing block 19. The plurality of flange clamping rods 3 are arranged along the bottom of the fixing block and are symmetrically distributed along the radial direction of the flange fixing part 1. The flange fixing part 1 is sleeved on the screw member. The bottom of the screw member extends through the flange fixing part 1 and is threadedly engaged with the plurality of flange clamping rods 3. The flange fixing part 1 and the screw member undergo relative movement in the vertical direction, so that the plurality of flange clamping rods 3 are respectively threadedly engaged with the screw member and move closer to or farther away from each other in the vertical direction, thereby clamping or loosening the bolt.
[0058] The fixing block 19 is sleeved on the screw member in the axial direction, and the fixing block 19 and the screw member are locked together by the screw. As the screw member rotates in the flange fixing part 1, the fixing block 19 and the clamping assembly rotate, so that the flange clamping rod 3 can loosen or tighten the bolt after clamping the bolt. Specifically:
[0059] The wrench clamping mechanism further includes a flange mounting portion 4, the interior of which has a mounting chamber 41; the screw member includes a screw 2 and a fixing seat 18, and the screw member 18 is fixed to the fixing seat 18 along the axial direction.
[0060] The screw rod 2 is provided with a smooth section 201 along the axial direction, and the smooth section 201 is fixed to the fixing seat 18 along the axial direction and extends into the installation chamber 41 along the vertical direction; the smooth section 201 corresponds to the fixing block 19 along the axial direction, and the fixing block 19 and the smooth section 201 are locked together by screws. As the smooth section 201 rotates in the flange fixing part 1, the rotation of the fixing block 19 and the clamping assembly is realized, so that the flange clamping rod 3 can loosen or tighten the bolt after clamping the bolt; more specifically, a screw hole is opened on the outside of the flange fixing part 1, and the screw hole extends in the radial direction to the contact between the fixing block 19 and the smooth section 201. In the embodiment of the present invention, a half-threaded hole is formed on the smooth section 201 and the fixing block 19 respectively, and the two half-threaded holes are combined to form a threaded hole 20. When a screw enters from the screw hole on the flange fixing part 1, it enters the threaded hole 20 formed by the two half-threaded holes, and the screw hole and the screw do not contact each other, so as to fix the smooth section 201 and the fixing block 19, but cannot fix the screw member and the flange fixing part 1. Therefore, when the screw member rotates, the fixing block 19 can be rotated, and finally the flange clamping rod 3 is rotated, that is, the fixing block 19 and the clamping assembly are rotated, so that the flange clamping rod 3 can loosen or tighten the bolt after clamping the bolt.
[0061] The screw rod 2 also includes a threaded section 202, which is fixedly connected to the smooth section 201 in the axial direction. Each flange clamping rod 3 includes a four-bar linkage 31 and a clamping plate 32. One of the rods in the four-bar linkage 31 extends in its own direction and has a gear 311 at one end. The gear 311 is engaged with the threaded section 202. The top of another rod in the four-bar linkage 31 is fixed to the bottom surface of the flange fixing portion 1. The third rod of the four-bar linkage 31 is hinged to the clamping plate 32. Specifically, the four-bar linkage 31 includes a first link 312, a second link 313, a third link 314 and a fourth link 315, and the first link 312, the second link 313, the third link 314 and the fourth link 315 are hinged to each other. The first connecting rod 312 is connected in a "mouth" shape, wherein the first connecting rod 312 extends along its own direction and bends to form a bent portion, the end of the bent portion extends into the interior of the flange fixing portion 1 and is fixed to the fixing block 19; the second connecting rod 313 and the third connecting rod 314 are respectively hinged to the first connecting rod 312, and the gear 311 is provided at the end of the second connecting rod 313 along its own extension direction, and the gear 311 is engaged with the threaded segment 202; the fourth connecting rod 315 is respectively hinged to the second connecting rod 313 and the third connecting rod 314, and the hinge of the fourth connecting rod 315 and the third connecting rod 314 is also hinged to the clamping plate 32. More specifically, the fourth connecting rod 315 and the clamping plate 52 are integrally formed, and the connection between the fourth connecting rod 315 and the clamping plate 32 forms a bend;
[0062] The gears 311 on the four flange clamping rods 3 are engaged with the threaded section 202 , and the four gears 311 are sequentially arranged along the radial direction of the screw rod 2 .
[0063] The clamping plate 32 has a bent clamping portion 321 , which is parallel to the vertical surface. A plurality of bent clamping portions 321 correspond to the circumference of the bolt.
[0064] The bent clamping portion 321 is provided with an anti-slip pad 3211 along the vertical direction, and the anti-slip pad 3211 is in contact with the circumference of the bolt.
[0065] A spring 14 is sleeved vertically inside the fixing seat 18, and the spring 14 extends out of the fixing seat 18 in its own direction. Specifically, a spring placement groove 181 is provided on the fixing seat 18, and the spring 14 is placed in the spring placement groove 181 in the vertical direction. The fixing seat 18 extends vertically from the bottom of the flange mounting seat 4 into the mounting chamber 41, so that the top of the spring 14 contacts the inner top side wall of the mounting chamber 41. The flange fixing portion 1 is rotatably sleeved on the bottom of the flange mounting portion 4, and the top of the flange mounting portion 4 is also fixed to the housing 6 by screws.
[0066] A limiting shell component 5 is threadedly sleeved on the outer side wall of the flange fixing portion 1 , and the limiting shell component 5 is located on the outer side of the clamping plate 32 .
[0067] The limiting shell assembly 5 includes a connector 54, a truncated cone limiting seat 51 and a plurality of limiting shells 52. The connector 54 is fixed to the top of the truncated cone limiting seat 51. The upper end of the connector 54 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the flange fixing portion 1 in the vertical direction. The plurality of limiting shells 52 are arranged along the circumference of the truncated cone limiting seat 51. A through hole 53 is opened on the truncated cone limiting seat 51, and each limiting shell 52 extends in the vertical direction. The limiting shell 52 is located on the outside of the clamping plate 32, and there is a space between each two adjacent limiting shells 52. There are gaps, each gap corresponding to the through hole 53. Specifically, each limiting shell 52 includes a plurality of limiting arc blocks 521, and the plurality of limiting arc blocks 521 are connected end to end in the vertical direction, and the radius of each two adjacent limiting arc blocks 521 decreases in sequence. The purpose is to design limiting arc blocks 521 of different widths and heights according to the structural strength of different parts of the flange clamping rod 3, so that the entire clamping device will not be deformed due to excessive torque during operation.
[0068] The top of the limiting arc block 521 located at the highest point is fixedly connected to the bottom of the truncated cone limiting seat 51 in the vertical direction. More specifically, there are four limiting arc blocks 521, and the shape of the through hole 53 is a "cross" structure. The gap between each two adjacent limiting arc blocks 521 corresponds to the through hole 53 of the "cross" structure, and each flange clamping rod 32 enters the limiting shell 52 through the through hole 53 of the "cross" structure, and corresponds to the side wall of the limiting shell 52 in the vertical direction.
[0069] Example 2
[0070] like Figure 3-14 As shown, a torque wrench for tightening transmission tower bolts includes the above-mentioned wrench clamping mechanism, a housing 6 and a torque sensor 7. The housing 7 has a length direction and a width direction. The width direction of the housing 6 is parallel to the vertical direction. The torque sensors 7 are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the housing 6.
[0071] The torque sensor 7 includes a torque sensor housing 71 and two first rotating shafts 72 . The two first rotating shafts 72 are respectively rotatably sleeved on the torque sensor housing 71 along the width direction. One of the first rotating shafts 72 is connected to the above-mentioned wrench clamping mechanism.
[0072] The torque wrench further includes a torque multiplier 8 (it should be noted that the torque multiplier 8 in the present invention adopts a commercially available torque multiplier, such as model T-MULT120, and its structure and torque rotation principle are not elaborated in detail herein) and a drive mechanism 9. The drive mechanism 9 and the torque multiplier 8 are mounted in the housing 6 along the length direction, and the torque multiplier 8 is mounted in the middle position between the drive mechanism 9 and the torque sensor 7;
[0073] The free end of the torque multiplier 8 is connected to the free end of the torque sensor 7 arranged along its horizontal direction. The free end of the torque sensor 7 and the first rotating shaft 72 are jointly sleeved with a bevel gear set 15.
[0074] The drive mechanism 9 is used to drive the free end of the torque multiplier 8 to rotate, thereby driving the free end of the torque sensor 7 to rotate, and then driving the bevel gear set 15 to change direction and rotate, ultimately rotating the first rotating shaft 72, thereby rotating the clamping mechanism. Specifically, the torque multiplier 8 is provided with a second rotating shaft 10, and the torque sensor 7 is provided with a third rotating shaft 11. The second rotating shaft 10 and the third rotating shaft 11 are arranged along the length direction, and one end of the second rotating shaft 10 is connected to one end of the third rotating shaft 11. One end of the third rotating shaft 11 is connected to the fourth rotating shaft 12 in a nested manner along the length direction. The bevel gear set 15 is sleeved on both the fourth rotating shaft 12 and the first rotating shaft 72.
[0075] The driving mechanism 9 is used to drive the second rotating shaft 10 on the torque multiplier 8 to rotate, thereby driving the third rotating shaft 11 to rotate, and then driving the bevel gear set 15 to change direction and finally rotate the first rotating shaft 72, thereby rotating the clamping mechanism.
[0076] The above scheme is adopted to set up a second rotating shaft 10 and a third rotating shaft 11, the purpose of which is to ensure that the force can be unstable under large torque conditions, effectively reducing the force transmission error caused by poor alignment between shafts or other factors; the fourth rotating shaft 12 is adopted mainly to distinguish it from the third rotating shaft 11, the purpose of which is to allow the two rotating shafts to achieve effective collaborative work while maintaining independent functions, which not only ensures the stability and accuracy of the torque sensor 7, but also improves the transmission efficiency and reliability of the overall system.
[0077] In order to achieve a better torque effect, the diameters of the second rotating shaft 10 , the fourth rotating shaft 12 and the third rotating shaft 11 are set to decrease in sequence.
[0078] The flange mounting portion 4 is fixed to the housing 6. Specifically, the flange mounting portion 4 is fixed to the housing 6 by screws.
[0079] A connecting piece 16 is installed below the first rotating shaft 72. The connecting piece 16 extends in the vertical direction, and its bottom penetrates and extends into the installation chamber 41, so that the connecting piece 16 is clamped with the flange mounting part 4. Specifically, a spring ball 13 is installed on the side wall of the connecting piece 16, and an opening is provided at the top of the flange mounting part 4, which is connected to the installation chamber 41. A spring hole 17 matching the spring ball 13 is provided on the side wall of the spring placement groove 181 in Example 1. The spring ball 13 enters the spring placement groove 181 through the opening and moves, so that the spring ball 13 is in line contact with the inner wall of the spring placement groove 181 and extrusion is generated. When encountering the spring hole 17, the extrusion disappears, and the spring ball 13 extends into the spring hole 17 under the action of its own structure, so that the spring ball 13 is in line contact with the inner wall of the spring hole 17. At this time, the spring ball 13 is restricted in the spring hole 17, and the connecting piece 16 is connected to the fixing seat 18.
[0080] The bevel gear set 15 includes two bevel gears 151 , one of the bevel gears 151 is sleeved on the fourth rotating shaft 12 , and the other bevel gear 151 is sleeved on the first rotating shaft 72 , and the two bevel gears 151 are meshed with each other.
[0081] The driving mechanism 9 includes a motor 91 and a battery 92. The motor 91 is installed in the housing 6, and the output end of the motor 91 extends along the length direction and is connected to the second rotating shaft 10.
[0082] The battery 92 is pluggably installed at one end of the housing 6 . The output end of the battery 92 is located inside the housing 6 and is electrically connected to the motor 91 .
[0083] It should be noted that the torque sensor 7 adopts a torque sensor in the prior art, such as the model: LZN1-D dynamic torque sensor, which detects the torque value by a strain gauge fixed on its transmission shaft. The strain gauge is fixed on the surface of the transmission shaft (not shown in the figure) and is a sensitive element that can detect torque. The torque sensor 7 transmits the signal through a slip ring. The slip ring is a commonly used component in motors or rotating machinery (not shown in the figure) and is used to transmit electrical signals between fixed and rotating parts. The torque sensor 7 transmits the signal to the external data acquisition system through the slip ring. When the motor 911 works and drives the torque sensor 7 to work, the fourth shaft 12 rotates. At this time, the strain gauge can detect the micro-deformation of the fourth shaft 12, thereby converting it into a corresponding torque value and transmitting the data through the wireless transmission module.
[0084] This wrench operates in the following manner:
[0085] The present invention is powered by a battery 92 to drive a motor 91 (the motor 91 is provided with a switch, which can be turned on or off by opening and closing the switch, and for ease of operation, the switch extends out of the housing 6). The output end of the motor 6 rotates, thereby driving the rotation of the second rotating shaft 10 on the torque multiplier 8, thereby driving the rotation of the third rotating shaft 11 and the fourth rotating shaft 12 in turn, thereby driving the rotation of the bevel gear 151 on the fourth rotating shaft 12, and driving the rotation of the bevel gear 151 on the first rotating shaft 72, that is, realizing the change from the rotation of the output end of the motor 91 in the longitudinal direction to the rotation of the first rotating shaft 72 in the vertical direction, that is, realizing reversal, converting the horizontal axial force into a longitudinal axial force, thereby driving the rotation of the connecting member 16, driving the rotation of the fixing seat 18, driving the screw 2 to rotate, thereby driving the flange clamping rod 3 to tighten. The second link 313 is connected to the first link 312, and the second link 313 is connected to the first link 312, so that the fourth link 313 moves in the opposite direction relative to the movement of the gear on the screw. The third link 314 connects the first link 312 and the fourth link 315, so that the fourth link 315 is deflected relative to the vertical plane. The plurality of fourth links 315 are deflected at the same time, and then the plurality of clamping plates 32 are deflected at the same time, so that the plurality of bent clamping portions 321 are deflected at the same time, that is, the opening or tightening state is achieved), so that the bolt can be clamped, that is, the torque multiplier 8 amplifies the torque of the motor 4, and transmits the torque to the screw 2 through the transmission of the bevel gear set 15 of the torque sensor 7. The screw 2 then transmits the torsional force to the gear 311 that is meshed with the meshing screw 2.
[0086] The spring 14 located inside the fixing seat 18 is mainly responsible for resetting the flange clamping rod 3 on the auxiliary screw 2 when the bolt reaches the tightened state. By starting the motor 91, mainly the reverse operation of the servo motor, the bottom end of the clamping plate 32 of the wrench clamping mechanism is placed in the groove of the hexagon socket bolt, thereby realizing the removal of the hexagon socket bolt;
[0087] In addition, after the flange clamping rod clamps the bolt, it is then tightened in the threaded hole to fix the screw and the fixed block, so that it rotates at the output end of the starting motor 6, thereby driving the rotation of the second rotating shaft 10 on the torque multiplier 8, thereby driving the rotation of the third rotating shaft 11 and the fourth rotating shaft 12 in turn, thereby driving the rotation of the bevel gear 151 on the fourth rotating shaft 12, and driving the rotation of the bevel gear 151 on the first rotating shaft 72, that is, realizing the change from the rotation of the output end of the motor 91 in the longitudinal direction to the rotation of the first rotating shaft 72 in the vertical direction, that is, realizing reversal, converting the horizontal axial force into a longitudinal axial force, thereby driving the rotation of the connecting piece 16, driving the fixing seat 18, the screw 2 and the fixing block 19 to rotate together, thereby driving the flange clamping rod 3 to rotate, that is, realizing loosening or tightening the bolt.
[0088] The above shows and describes 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 to the above embodiments. Various changes and improvements can be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Such changes and improvements are within the scope of the present invention. The scope of protection claimed in the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
