Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of tooling and fixture technology, and in particular relates to a tooling and fixture for automotive calipers used in machining centers. Background Technology

[0002] Automotive calipers are crucial components of a vehicle's braking system, used to decelerate, stop, or maintain a stationary position. The caliper uses hydraulic pressure generated by the master cylinder to apply force to the outer protruding portion of the brake pad, causing the internal piston to expand and push the brake pad against the brake disc, significantly increasing the vehicle's braking force.

[0003] Existing equipment is inconvenient for positioning tooling fixtures during use. When the user is processing the automotive caliper, the tooling fixture may move simultaneously, affecting the user's normal processing of the automotive caliper. In addition, the method of fixing the tooling fixture is relatively cumbersome, which reduces the user's work efficiency. Therefore, we propose an automotive caliper tooling fixture for machining centers. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a machining center automotive caliper fixture. By fixing the second limiting plate to the fixing block in the slide groove, the fixture body can be fixed on the reserved plate. This solves the problems of existing equipment being inconvenient to position the fixture during use, potentially causing the fixture to move simultaneously when the user is machining the automotive caliper, affecting the user's normal machining of the caliper, and the fixture fixing method being cumbersome, which reduces the user's work efficiency.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] The present invention is an automotive caliper tooling fixture for machining centers, comprising a fixture body, a reserved plate slidably connected to the bottom outer wall of the fixture body, a plurality of positioning holes being formed on the inner wall of the reserved plate, and an installation mechanism being provided on the inner wall of the reserved plate;

[0007] The installation mechanism includes several limiting plates. The outer walls of the limiting plates are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the fixture body. A number of limiting grooves are formed on the inner wall of the reserved plate near one of the limiting plates. A limiting shaft is slidably connected to the inner wall of each limiting groove. The outer wall of the limiting shaft is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting plate. A number of sliding grooves are formed on the inner wall of the reserved plate. A number of sliding grooves are formed on the inner wall of the positioning hole near one of the sliding grooves. A number of limiting plates are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bottom of the fixture body near one of the sliding grooves. The inner wall of the reserved plate is slidably connected to... The fixture has several pull rods. Several fixing blocks are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the pull rod near the second limiting plate. The outer wall of the fixing blocks is slidably connected to the outer wall of the second limiting plate. A fixing plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the pull rod near the second sliding groove. Several springs are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing plate. The outer wall of the springs is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second sliding groove. A shock-absorbing spring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing plate near the springs. The outer wall of the shock-absorbing spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second sliding groove. A positioning mechanism is provided on the inner wall of the fixture body.

[0008] Furthermore, the positioning mechanism includes several fixed seats, the outer wall of which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixture body, and a limit rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixed seat on the left side.

[0009] Furthermore, a threaded rod is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed seat on the right side, and the outer wall of the threaded rod is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixture body.

[0010] Furthermore, the outer walls of both the threaded rod and the limiting rod are slidably connected to toothed sliders, and the outer walls of the toothed sliders are slidably connected to the inner walls of the fixture body.

[0011] Furthermore, a plurality of toothed sliders are slidably connected to the outer wall of the bottom end of the clamp body near the toothed slider, and the outer wall of the toothed sliders engages with the outer wall of the toothed slider.

[0012] Furthermore, a number of teeth are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the toothed slider near the spring, and a rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the central axis of the inner wall of the clamp body.

[0013] Furthermore, a gear disk is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft, and the outer wall of the gear disk meshes with the outer wall of the teeth.

[0014] Furthermore, a handle is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded rod, and several limiting grooves are opened and closed on the inner wall of the end of the clamp body near the toothed slider.

[0015] Furthermore, the inner wall of the limiting groove 2 is slidably connected with an arc-shaped clamping plate, the outer wall of the arc-shaped clamping plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the toothed slider 2, and the inner wall of the arc-shaped clamping plate is rotatably connected with several arc-shaped clamping plates 2.

[0016] Furthermore, the inner wall of the second arc-shaped clamp is rotatably connected to several third arc-shaped clamps, and the outer wall of the third arc-shaped clamp is fixedly connected to several elastic pads.

[0017] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. This invention incorporates a second limiting plate. When the device is to be used, the main body of the clamp is installed on the reserved plate before use. Several second limiting plates on the bottom of the clamp main body are aligned with the slide groove and inserted. During the installation of the second limiting plate inside the slide groove, the second limiting plate will abut against the fixing block, causing the pull rod to slide outward. As the pull rod slides outward, it will drive the fixing plate to slide outward. The movement of the fixing plate will compress several springs and shock-absorbing springs, making it easy for the user to fix the clamp on the reserved plate. This prevents the clamp from shifting due to external forces during subsequent normal use, which would affect the user's use. At the same time, the installation method of the clamp is relatively simple.

[0019] 2. This invention incorporates elastic pads. When the device is in use, the car caliper is placed between the elastic pads. Turning the handle causes the threaded rod to rotate, causing the toothed slider near the threaded rod to slide on the clamp body. The sliding of the toothed slider near the threaded rod causes another toothed slider to move around the left circumference of the toothed slider, causing the toothed slider away from the threaded rod to slide simultaneously and in the opposite direction on the limit rod. This allows for a certain degree of adjustment of the clamp, enabling it to automatically adapt to and position calipers of different shapes and sizes, facilitating the user's processing of the calipers. Furthermore, the positioning method of the device is simple and convenient.

[0020] Of course, any product implementing this invention does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] Please see Figure 1-6 As shown, the present invention is an automotive caliper tooling fixture for machining centers, including a fixture body 1. A reserved plate 101 is slidably connected to the bottom outer wall of the fixture body 1. A plurality of positioning holes 102 are opened on the inner wall of the reserved plate 101. An installation mechanism 2 is provided on the inner wall of the reserved plate 101. Through the positioning holes 102, it is convenient for the user to fix the reserved plate 101 by passing the external bolt through the positioning holes 102. After the positioning holes 102 are fixed, the position of the fixture body 1 can be fixed.

[0032] The mounting mechanism 2 includes several limiting plates 202. The outer walls of the limiting plates 202 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the fixture body 1. A reserved plate 101 has several limiting grooves 201 on its inner wall near one end of the limiting plates 202. A limiting shaft 203 is slidably connected to the inner wall of each limiting groove 201. The outer wall of the limiting shaft 203 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting plate 202. Passing the limiting shaft 203 through the positioning hole on the limiting plate 202 will insert it into the limiting groove 201, and rotating the threaded rod 303 will fix the fixture body 1 onto the reserved plate 101. The inner wall of the fixture body 1 has several sliding grooves 204. The inner wall of the positioning hole 102 near the sliding groove 204 has several second sliding grooves 205. Several second limiting plates 206 are fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the end of the fixture body 1 near the sliding groove 204. Several pull rods 207 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the reserved plate 101. Pulling the pull rods 207 will cause the fixed plate 209 to move and compress several springs 211. At the same time, the pull rods 207 will pull the fixed block 208 outward during the outward pulling process. To disengage the second limiting plate 206 from its clamped state, several fixing blocks 208 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the end of the pull rod 207 near the second limiting plate 206. The outer walls of the fixing blocks 208 are slidably connected to the outer wall of the second limiting plate 206. A fixing plate 209 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the end of the pull rod 207 near the second slide groove 205. Several springs 211 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing plate 209. Due to their own elasticity, the springs 211 will always press against the interior of the second slide groove 205, causing the fixing plate 209 at the other end to clamp against the interior of the second limiting plate 206, thereby... The limiting plate 206 is fixed on the reserved plate 101. The outer wall of the spring 211 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 205. A shock-absorbing spring 210 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing plate 209 near the spring 211. The outer wall of the shock-absorbing spring 210 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 205. The inner wall of the clamp body 1 is provided with a positioning mechanism 3. The spring 211 can exert a certain elastic force on the fixing plate 209, enhance the pressure of the fixing block 208 against the limiting plate 206, and prevent the limiting plate 206 from falling off the fixing block 208 on its own.

[0033] After several limiting plates 206 on the fixture body 1 are inserted into the slide groove 204 through the reserved plate 101, the limiting plates 206 will press against the fixing block 208 during insertion, causing it to move outward. The outward movement of the fixing block 208 will drive the pull rod 207 to move outward, causing the fixing plate 209 to compress several springs 211. When the limiting plates 206 are fully installed in the fixing block 208, the springs 211 will have elastic force to compress the fixing plate 209 and reset it, thereby causing the fixing block 208 to be locked on the limiting plates 206, thus fixing the fixture body 1 on the reserved plate 101.

[0034] The positioning mechanism 3 includes several fixed seats 301. The outer wall of each fixed seat 301 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixture body 1. A limit rod 302 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the left fixed seat 301. A threaded rod 303 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the right fixed seat 301. The outer wall of the threaded rod 303 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixture body 1. Rotating the handle 309 causes the threaded rod 303 to rotate, causing the toothed slider 304 to slide inside the fixture body 1. As the toothed slider 304 slides, it drives the toothed slider 305 to rotate through the teeth 306. The outer walls of both the threaded rod 303 and the limit rod 302 are slidably connected to the toothed slider 304. The outer wall of the toothed slider 304 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixture body 1. The fixture body 1 has a sliding connection. Several toothed sliders 305 are slidably connected to the outer wall of the bottom of the toothed slider 304. The toothed sliders 305 can limit the movement trajectory of the toothed sliders 305, so that the toothed sliders 305 can only move in a circle around the toothed slider 304. The outer wall of the toothed sliders 305 meshes with the outer wall of the toothed slider 304. Several teeth 306 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the toothed slider 304 near the spring 211. Since the outer wall of the teeth 306 meshes with the outer wall of the toothed sliders 305, when the toothed slider 304 near the threaded rod 303 moves, it will drive the toothed sliders 305 to rotate through the teeth 306, thereby causing the toothed slider 304 away from the threaded rod 303 to move.

[0035] Rotating the handle 309 will cause the threaded rod 303 to rotate, causing the toothed slider 304 on the side closer to the threaded rod 303 to slide on the inner wall of the fixture body 1. As the toothed slider 304 on the side closer to the threaded rod 303 slides, it will drive the toothed slider 305 to rotate through the teeth 306, thereby causing the toothed slider 304 on the side farther from the threaded rod 303 to slide on the inner wall of the fixture body 1.

[0036] A rotating shaft 307 is fixedly connected to the central axis of the inner wall of the clamp body 1. A gear disk 308 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 307. The outer wall of the gear disk 308 meshes with the outer wall of the teeth 306. A handle 309 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded rod 303. The threaded rod 303 can fix the position of the handle 309 to prevent the handle 309 from falling off. At the same time, rotating the handle 309 can drive the threaded rod 303 to rotate, causing the toothed slider 304 on the outer wall of the threaded rod 303 to slide on the inner wall of the clamp body 1. Several limiting grooves 310 are opened and closed on the inner wall of the clamp body 1 near the toothed slider 305. The inner wall of the limiting grooves 310 is slidably connected to... The arc-shaped clamp 311 has its outer wall fixedly connected to the outer wall of the toothed slider 305. The movement of the toothed slider 304 will cause the toothed slider 305 to slide within the limiting groove 310. The movement of the toothed slider 305 will cause the arc-shaped clamp 311 to move and fix the car caliper. Several arc-shaped clamps 312 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the arc-shaped clamp 311. Several arc-shaped clamps 313 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the arc-shaped clamps 312. Several elastic pads 314 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the arc-shaped clamps 313. The elastic pads 314 can prevent the pressure of the arc-shaped clamp 311 clamping the car caliper from being too great and causing damage to the car caliper.

[0037] The movement of toothed slider 304 will cause toothed slider 2 305 to slide within the limiting groove 2 310. The movement of toothed slider 2 305 will cause arc-shaped clamping plate 311 to move and fix the car caliper. Through the arc-shaped clamping plate 2 312 and arc-shaped clamping plate 313, the clamp body can always be in contact with the outer wall of the car caliper, thereby strengthening the fixing effect. At the same time, the elastic pad 314 can prevent the overall clamping pressure of arc-shaped clamping plate 311 from being too high and causing damage to the car caliper.

[0038] One specific application of this embodiment is:

[0039] When the staff needs to use the equipment, before use, the clamp body 1 is installed on the reserved plate 101. Several limiting plates 206 at the bottom of the clamp body 1 are aligned with the slide groove 204 and inserted. During the installation of the limiting plates 206 inside the slide groove 204, the limiting plates 206 will abut against the fixing block 208, causing the pull rod 207 to slide outwards. The outward sliding of the pull rod 207 will drive the fixing plate 209 to slide outwards. The movement of the fixing plate 209 will compress several springs 211 and shock-absorbing springs 210. When the limiting plates 206 are fully installed... After the clamping block 208 is fully engaged, the springs 211 and 210 will automatically reset the fixing plate 209 due to their own elasticity, causing the pull rod 207 to reset as well. This will then lock the fixing block 208 into the limiting plate 206, preventing the clamping body 1 from detaching from the reserved plate 101. To remove the clamping body 1, simply pull the pull rod 207 outwards. After the clamping body 1 is fixed on the reserved plate 101, the limiting shaft 203 is inserted into the limiting groove 201 after passing through the limiting slot on the limiting plate 202 and rotating half a turn. This allows for further... To enhance the fixing effect and prevent the fixture body 1 from shaking during subsequent processing, the automotive caliper is then placed between the elastic pads 314. Turning the handle 309 causes the threaded rod 303 to rotate, causing the toothed slider 304 near the threaded rod 303 to slide on the fixture body 1. The sliding of the toothed slider 304 near the threaded rod 303 causes the toothed slider 305 to rotate around the toothed slider 304, causing the toothed slider 304 away from the threaded rod 303 to slide simultaneously and in the opposite direction on the limiting rod 302. 4. The movement of the toothed slider 305 causes the arc-shaped clamp 311 to move simultaneously and in opposite directions on the limiting groove 310. During the clamping process, the arc-shaped clamp 313 will first contact the car caliper and rotate within the arc-shaped clamp 312, so that the outer wall of the arc-shaped clamp 313 fits against the outer wall of the car caliper. When the arc-shaped clamp 313 cannot fit completely, the arc-shaped clamp 312 will rotate within the arc-shaped clamp 311, thereby strengthening the fit between the arc-shaped clamp 313 and the car caliper and completing the fixation of the car caliper.
