[0002] In the screw-nut mechanism, some mechanisms have guide rails that are bent and deformed due to insufficient rigidity when overloaded, which can cause large misalignment between the screw and the nut. In addition, in some application areas, the nut and the screw are installed on different equipment. Due to processing and assembly errors, the screw and the nut also have large misalignment. Therefore, during the transmission process, the screw is bent by radial force or excessive transmission, and sometimes even cannot achieve power transmission. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new floating nut so that the transmission process is not affected by misalignment caused by structural deformation or assembly deviation.

[0071] The lead screw 305 includes a connecting section 305a, a first threaded section 305b, a buffer section 305c and a second threaded section 305d in sequence along the length direction. The buffer section 305c is arranged inside the device side plug-in plate 20, and the second threaded section 305d is located outside the device side plug-in plate 20; the cover plate 406 is provided with a limit positioning groove on one side close to the device side plug-in plate 20, and the limit positioning groove has the same inner diameter as the limit installation groove. The outer wall of the connecting end 305a is a smooth surface, and the outer wall of the buffer section 305c is a smooth surface. The middle part of the buffer section 305c has an annular protrusion, which is located in the limit installation groove and the limit positioning groove. The outer side of the buffer section 305c is also sleeved with a flat Surface thrust bearing, the plane thrust bearing is located in the limit installation groove and the limit positioning groove, and the plane thrust bearing is located on the side of the annular protrusion close to the cover plate 406; in the initial state, the first thread segment 305b is threadedly engaged with the floating nut 304, and the second thread segment 305d is not threadedly engaged with the floating nut 101; in the plug-in state, the first thread segment 305b is not threadedly engaged with the floating nut 304, the connecting segment 305a is located inside the floating nut 304, and the second thread segment 305d is threadedly engaged with the floating nut 101; it is worth noting that the end of the second thread segment 305d is a conical structure, which mainly plays a guiding role; the first thread segment and the second thread segment are both trapezoidal threads.

[0072] In the above-mentioned embodiment 1, first, after the driving motor 302 works, the coupling drives the lead screw 305 to rotate clockwise, the lead screw 305 moves, and the first threaded segment 305b at the lead screw 305 is screwed into the floating nut 304, and the lead screw 305 begins to move toward the mold side opposite to the insert plate 10. When the second threaded segment 305d of the lead screw 305 is screwed into the floating nut 1 101, the first threaded segment 305b of the lead screw 305 will gradually finish screwing with the floating nut 304, that is, the connecting segment 305a moves in the floating nut 304, and then the second threaded segment 305d of the lead screw 305 is gradually screwed into the floating nut 1 101. The side plug plate 10 is fixed. At this time, the lead screw 305 continues to move the side plug plate 20 of the device toward the side plug plate 10 of the mold. At the same time, the guide locking member 201 will gradually contact the guide locking sleeve, and gradually guide and position until the two plug plates are inserted into each other. At this time, the guide mechanism completes the guidance and also completes the precise positioning of the plug plates. At this time, the upper proximity switch contacts the proximity member, so that the proximity switch sends a signal that the insertion is in place, which is fed back to the guide locking member 201 for locking action, and at the same time fed back to the hydraulic motor to stop rotating. When the locking action is in place, the sensor of the guide locking mechanism will feed back a signal that the locking is in place, and the locking is completed. At this time, the lead screw and the lead screw nut realize self-locking through the self-locking characteristics of the trapezoidal thread itself, thereby providing a huge locking reaction force to the plug plate; when the plug plate is connected to multiple energy sources, a huge separation force appears in the middle of the plug plate. At this time, in addition to the strong locking force provided by the upper and lower locking mechanisms, the strong self-locking mechanical characteristics between the lead screw and the floating nut can also provide a strong locking force. The force stability of the plug plate under large loads is greatly improved.

[0073] When the work on the plug plate is completed and needs to be separated, at this time, first start the guide locking piece 201 to unlock. After unlocking, start the drive motor to work in reverse. At this time, the screw rotates counterclockwise. When the second threaded section of the screw and the floating nut 1 are about to be screwed out, the first threaded section and the floating nut 2 are screwed in. As the screw continues to rotate, it will continue to drive the device side plug plate to move toward the base. Subsequently, the spring shell will contact the end face of the base. As the screw continues to screw into the floating nut 2, the spring shell will press the buffer spring to provide a certain reaction force to the screw movement until the cover plate 8 is fully fitted into the base. The sensor detects the signal that the plug plate is separated and the hydraulic motor stops working.
