[0035] like Figures 1 to 14As shown, an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention proposes a self-locking heavy-duty tool sleeve, comprising a shell 1, an expansion cap 6, a centering block 5 and a spring plunger 4, the expansion cap 6 is slidably connected to the shell 1, and a plurality of spring plungers 4 are provided on the side wall of the shell 1 in the form of a circular array, the head of each spring plunger 4 passes through the shell 1 and abuts against a centering block 5, and each centering block 5 is slidable along the radial direction of the shell 1; each centering block 5 includes a positioning plate 51 and a connecting block 55, a positioning plate 51 is provided on one side of the connecting block 55, and a transition slope surface 57 is provided on the bottom surface of the positioning plate 51; the head of each spring plunger 4 is connected to the connecting block 55 of a centering block 5, and when working, the end of the positioning plate 51 facing away from the connecting block 55 abuts against the tool 7, and one end of the expansion cap 6 is provided with an inclined portion 63, and when working, each connecting block 55 abuts against the outer surface of the inclined portion 63.

[0036] In the above embodiment, it should be noted that each spring plunger 4 adopts the structure of an existing spring plunger, which specifically includes: The plunger body has a threaded outer circle and can be directly screwed into the housing 1; it is also fixed by a retaining ring or a pressure cover and does not have an outer thread; the interior is a hollow cavity structure for accommodating the plunger rod and spring, and a stop surface is provided at the bottom of the cavity to limit the spring compression stroke.

[0037] The plunger rod directly contacts the object to be tightened, transmits the spring force, and realizes the tightening, positioning or resetting action.

[0038] The head of the plunger rod can be one of a flat head, a spherical head, a conical head or a serrated head. The rod body of the plunger rod is cylindrical and slides with the cavity of the plunger body.

[0039] The spring is located between the plunger body and the plunger rod, with one end resting against the bottom of the body and the other end resting against the tail of the plunger rod.

[0040] A limit step is provided inside the plunger body to prevent the plunger rod from falling off when the spring is compressed; some models have a retaining ring or a snap ring installed at the end of the plunger rod to limit the maximum extension length.

[0041] An O-ring or dust ring can be installed between the plunger body and the plunger rod to prevent impurities from invading and affecting the spring performance.

[0042] The number of spring plungers 4 is at least three, and at least three spring plungers 4 are inserted on the side wall of the housing 1 in the form of a circular array. Preferably, the number of spring plungers 4 is 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8; the number of centering blocks 5 and spring plungers 4 is the same.

[0043] The cross-sectional shapes of the expansion cap 6 and the housing 1 are both circular.

[0044] The working principle of this knife sleeve is as follows: when the tool 7 is inserted, the pull pin of the tool 7 will contact the multiple centering blocks 5 positioning plates 51, and the inclined surface of the pull pin will contact the transition slope surface 57 on the positioning plate 51. Under the action of the axial component of the spring plunger 4, the spring plunger 4 will be compressed, and the multiple centering blocks 5 will all move backward. After the pull pin is inserted, due to the elastic force of the spring plunger 4, the multiple centering blocks 5 will rebound, locking the tool 7. The flat surfaces of the upper ends of the multiple positioning plates 51 cooperate to clamp the root cylindrical surface of the pull pin, at this time achieving self-locking, and the tool cannot be removed. When the tool 7 needs to be removed, under the action of external force, by pressing down the expansion cap 6, the inclined portion 63 of the expansion cap 6 presses down, causing the multiple centering blocks 5 to be subjected to radial force, causing the multiple centering blocks 5 to move backward, releasing the self-locking, and achieving the purpose of loosening the tool.

[0045] The self-locking principle of this knife set is as follows Figure 14 As shown, when the transition slope surface 57 of the positioning plate 51 of the centering block 5 abuts against the rivet inclined surface of the tool 7, according to the rivet parameters of the tool 7, θ in the figure is 60°; at this time, F1 is greater than F2 multiplied by ; Represents the friction coefficient, which is about 0.15; F1 represents the radial component of the centering block 5 in the housing 1; F2 represents the axial component of the centering block 5 in the housing 1; and the self-locking angle of the pull pin of the tool 7 should be between 8.5° and 10°, so the pull pin can be pulled out without self-locking; when the pull pin of the tool 7 is inserted into place, the plane of the upper end of the positioning plate 51 of the centering block 5 contacts the root of the pull pin of the tool 7, and then the plane of the upper end of the centering block 5 is in the vertical plane of the pull pin of the tool 7. At this time, θ is greater than or equal to 0° and less than 8.5°, which meets the self-locking condition, and F1 is less than F2 multiplied by θ represents the contact angle between the positioning block 5 and the pull pin of the tool 7, F pull represents the axial tension of the pull pin, and F represents the total tension of the pull pin and the positioning block 5 in contact.

[0046] An inclined surface 53 is provided on the connecting block 55, and an inclined portion 63 is provided at one end of the expansion cap 6. When working, the inclined surface 53 of each connecting block 55 is in surface contact with the outer surface of the inclined portion 63 to ensure that the contact of the expansion cap 6 during use is surface contact, thereby ensuring the expansion effect and further increasing the service life of the knife sleeve; in addition, when the knife is loosened, the elastic force of the spring plunger 4 can push the centering block 5 to automatically reset, pushing the inclined portion 63 of the expansion cap 6 to reset and driving the expansion cap 6 to reset, thereby realizing the automatic reset of each component of the knife sleeve and indirectly increasing the service life of the knife sleeve.

[0047] The technical effects achieved by the above embodiments are as follows: the tool sleeve has a simple structure and is easy to assemble and unassemble, and the spring plunger 4 and other wearing parts are easy to replace, which saves costs; the tool sleeve has a self-locking function through the coordinated arrangement of the spring plunger 4 and the centering block 5, which can simultaneously meet the clamping of light-load and heavy-load tools 7, and solves the problem of heavy-load tools easily falling off; it has good versatility, and due to the arrangement of multiple spring plungers 4, the tool sleeve can be suitable for tools 7 of various specifications, and there is no need to match tool sleeves of various specifications according to the load of the tool 7, thereby improving the working efficiency of the machine tool; due to the coordinated arrangement of multiple centering blocks 5 in multiple directions, comprehensive positioning of the tool 7 is achieved, ensuring that the tool is firmly loaded on the tool sleeve, avoiding the risk of heavy-load tools 7 accidentally detaching from the tool sleeve, and thus avoiding the occurrence of tool falling accidents, indirectly ensuring the safety of the operator, and the structure of the centering block 5 replaces the previous structure of the steel ball and bushing, solving the failure problem of easy cracking at the matching point between the bushing and the steel ball, and improving the service life.
