Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of fastening tools, and in particular relates to a ratchet gland head wrench and a use method. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, the high-voltage module of a new energy vehicle widely adopts a connection mode of a gland head for fastening, so as to realize sealing of the high-voltage module. The high-voltage module specifically refers to a structure capable of converting alternating current and direct current; the gland head, also called a cable fixing head, is installed at a connection between a high-voltage line and the high-voltage module, and plays a role of leading in the high-voltage line, fixing the position of the high-voltage line and sealing the connection. Due to the existence of the high-voltage line, a conventional ratchet wrench cannot be used to tighten the gland head. Due to the limitation of the structure of the high-voltage module, the spacing between the gland heads is small, and the fastening range is small when using a conventional wrench. During the tightening process, the tool cannot be twisted in a single direction to transmit torque, and often needs to be loosened from the gland head and lifted for re-clamping, and then the wrench is twisted again. Therefore, the tightening process needs to be repeated for multiple times, the tightening time is long, the operation efficiency is low, and the tightening precision cannot be guaranteed. The gland head has different sizes, the tooth angle of the existing open ratchet wrench is fixed, and the wrench cannot be tightly matched with various gland nut specifications, thereby affecting the tightening efficiency and quality. SUMMARY

[0003] The purpose of the present application is to provide a ratchet gland head wrench and a use method. The wrench uses a movable open jaw assembly and a high-strength elastic plate spring mechanical structure based on the ratchet principle. During the rotation of the wrench, the force is transmitted, and the wrench does not need to be removed from the gland head when it reaches the physical limit. Only the wrench needs to be rotated in the opposite direction to pull the plate spring away from the movable jaw assembly, so that the movable jaw assembly loosens the gland head. After the wrench reaches the physical limit, no external force is applied to the plate spring to pull it. The plate spring automatically compresses the movable jaw assembly due to its own elasticity, and continues to clamp the gland head. The wrench can continue to twist in the clockwise direction to transmit torque without lifting the gland nut, so as to achieve the purpose of adjusting and fixing in a small space. The wrench also achieves the purpose of monitoring the torque and collecting data through the torque wrench. When the predetermined torque is reached, the wrench stops to ensure the tightening precision. The movable ratchet tightening head has low manufacturing cost and can be quickly inserted and fixed on the torque wrench. According to the specifications of the gland nut, multiple matching tightening heads are prefabricated. Before the tightening work starts, the appropriate tightening head is selected to completely match the gland nut, thereby improving the work efficiency and ensuring the tightening quality.

[0004] The specific scheme content is as follows:

[0005] A kind of ratchet head spanner, including movable ratchet wrench head and torque wrench, movable ratchet wrench head is detachably connected with torque wrench;Movable ratchet wrench head includes open pincer assembly and elastic component, open pincer assembly includes fixed jaw assembly and movable jaw assembly, the middle part side wall of fixed jaw assembly is equipped with rectangular through structure, the rear of movable jaw assembly is inserted in rectangular through structure and is hinged to the middle part of fixed jaw assembly by jaw hinge pin shaft, the front of fixed jaw assembly and movable jaw assembly constitutes C-shaped movable opening structure, the side wall of movable jaw assembly is equipped with open U-shaped inner recess away from jaw hinge pin shaft, the rear of elastic component is fixedly connected on the rear side wall of fixed jaw assembly, the front of elastic component is slidingly crimped on U-shaped inner recess, the rear of fixed jaw assembly is inserted and fixedly connected on the front of torque wrench.

[0006] The connection between the movable ratchet tightening head and the torque wrench of the present invention is detachable, and the rear part of the movable ratchet tightening head is matched and plugged into the rectangular plug-in cavity of the front plug-in part of the torque wrench, and is fixed by the cooperation of the pin and the shaft sleeve. The cooperation of the pin and the shaft sleeve can provide stable support and positioning, reduce friction and wear, and extend the service life. In actual work, the operator can select a matching movable ratchet tightening head and torque wrench according to the gland model, and plug and fix them. The torque wrench can monitor the torque and collect torque data during operation, and stop operating when the predetermined torque is reached to ensure the quality of assembly. The movable ratchet tightening head of the present invention includes an open jaw assembly and an elastic assembly. The front opening assembly is composed of a fixed jaw assembly and a movable jaw assembly hinged together, and the front ends of the two constitute a C-shaped movable opening structure. The jaw arc of the C-shaped movable opening structure should meet the requirements of being able to clamp the gland nut and not easily disengaged. The front of both the fixed jaw assembly and the movable jaw assembly are equipped with curved tooth surfaces. The multiple teeth on these tooth surfaces mate with the outer six faces of the gland nut, ensuring a snug, secure grip. The rear portion of the movable jaw assembly is inserted into the rectangular through-hole structure in the center of the fixed jaw assembly and secured by the jaw hinge pin within the first and second hinge pin holes.

Then, the tail end of the torque wrench is rotated clockwise to tighten the gland nut until the torque wrench is rotated to the physical limit position. The operator then rotates the torque wrench in the opposite direction. During the reverse rotation, there is only a certain friction force on the surface of the gland nut, and it will not be loosened. After the movable jaw assembly is subjected to the reverse steering force, the leaf spring is pulled away from the movable jaw assembly by the reverse external force. The movable jaw assembly is no longer subjected to the pressure of the leaf spring and loosens the gland. After the torque wrench is rotated to the limit position, the leaf spring is no longer subjected to the external force and automatically compresses the movable curved jaw under the elastic force of the leaf spring to re-clamp the gland.
