[0002] With the rapid development of modern industrial technology, the metal surface processing technology, especially in the manufacture of aero-engine blades, turbofan and other metal sheets, the requirement for processing precision is increasing.

Secondly, there are also a small part of flexible clamps that can clamp the edge of the metal sheet, which can improve the stress limit and effectively reduce the deformation probability of the metal sheet during processing, but due to design reasons, the distance from different clamping points to the edge of the metal sheet is still large, and the uneven stress distribution cannot be eliminated, and the processing precision and surface quality will still be affected.

[0048] Please refer to Figures 1-10As shown, the present application provides a kind of technical scheme of clamping device for metal surface treatment: a kind of clamping device for metal surface treatment, including mounting bracket 1, two lifting mounting plates 2 are movably installed on the side plate of mounting bracket 1 along the longitudinal direction, two lifting mounting plates 2 are moved up and down along the side plate under the action of built-in drive in mounting bracket 1 and adjust the interval, the side of two lifting mounting plates 2 adjacent is respectively equipped with upper locating seat 3 and lower locating seat 4, and pre-clamping assembly 5 is installed between upper locating seat 3 and lower locating seat 4, pre-clamping assembly 5 is composed of two opposite installation telescopic rod and chuck, and a plurality of telescopic frames 6 are slidably connected in ring shape on upper locating seat 3 and lower locating seat 4 by being set with sliding hole up and down, and the end of telescopic frame 6 is equipped with clamping assembly 7 for clamping metal sheet, and edge finding mechanism 8 is installed between telescopic frame 6 and clamping assembly 7 on upper locating seat 3, and drive mechanism 9 for driving telescopic frame 6 is installed in lower locating seat 4, and controller 10 for regulating the operation of the clamping device is installed on two lifting mounting plates 2.
[0049] Edge finding mechanism 8 includes air cavity 801, connecting piece 11 and rolling seat 811. Air cavity 801 is centrally provided in upper locating seat 3 and is communicated with sliding hole, air inlet pipe 802 is connected to air cavity 801, sliding sealing ring 803 is arranged at the end of telescopic frame 6 on upper locating seat 3, sliding sealing ring 803 ensures the air tightness between telescopic frame 6 and sliding hole of upper locating seat 3, air passage 804 is further provided in the inside of telescopic frame 6, and flow rate sensor 805 and electromagnetic valve 806 are further installed at the end of sliding hole of upper locating seat 3. When air inlet pipe 802 pressurizes air cavity 801, telescopic frame 6 in the sliding hole of upper locating seat 3 will begin to slide outward with the increase of air pressure.
[0050] Connecting piece 11 is movably installed on one side of upper clamping assembly 7, touch rod 807 is connected to the outside of connecting piece 11, sensing slide rod 808 is slidably and sealingly connected to the other end of touch rod 807 by being provided with sliding cavity, and a plurality of air release holes 809 are further provided on the arm of touch rod 807. The lower end of sensing slide rod 808 can be rectangular and matched with the lower opening of touch rod 807 to avoid the rotation of sensing slide rod 808 during the telescopic process. When the sealing end of sensing slide rod 808 moves above air release hole 809, the upper end of sliding cavity of touch rod 807 is in a sealed state, and when the sealing end of sensing slide rod 808 moves below air release hole 809, the upper end of sliding cavity of touch rod 807 is in a venting state. Conduit 810 is connected between telescopic frame 6 and touch rod 807 for connecting air passage 804 and sliding cavity in touch rod 807. Rolling seat 811 is fixed at the lower end of sensing slide rod 808, one side of rolling seat 811 is provided with a roller for contacting the surface of metal sheet during edge finding process, and spring 812 is sleeved on the end of sensing slide rod 808 outside touch rod 807 for applying force to sensing slide rod 808 and rolling seat 811 in the direction away from touch rod 807.
[0051] To clamp a metal sheet, the distance between the two lifting mounting plates 2 is first adjusted to separate the two clamping heads of the pre-clamping assembly 5. The metal sheet is then placed between the pre-clamping assemblies 5, and the distance between the two lifting mounting plates 2 is reduced until the sheet is initially clamped by the pre-clamping assembly 5. The clamping assembly 7 is then in contact with the surface of the metal sheet, and the rolling seat 811 is pressed against the upper surface of the metal sheet. The sensing slide 808 retracts into the contact rod 807, and the spring 812 is compressed. The sealing end of the sensing slide 808 moves above the air vent 809. The upper end of the sliding cavity of the contact rod 807, the conduit 810, the air passage 804, and the air cavity 801 are now sealed. The controller 10 then activates an external air pump to pressurize the air inlet pipe 802 to standard pressure. The telescopic frame 6 within the upper positioning seat 3 and the clamping assembly 7 at its end slide outward under the action of the air pressure. During this sliding process, the end of the clamping assembly 7 and the rollers of the rolling seat 811 maintain contact with the upper surface of the metal sheet.
[0052] When any rolling seat 811 moves beyond the edge of the metal sheet, the sensing slide bar 808 pops out from the contact bar 807 under the action of the spring 812. At this time, the sealing end of the sensing slide bar 808 moves to the bottom of the vent hole 809. Figure 9 As shown, the seal between the upper end of the sliding cavity of the feeler rod 807, the conduit 810, the air passage 804, and the air cavity 801 is broken. The telescopic frame 6, where the rolling seat 811 is located, moves to the predetermined position and stops sliding. Simultaneously, after the seal is broken, the flow rate sensor 805 corresponding to the telescopic frame 6 detects the airflow and feeds it back to the controller 10. The controller 10 controls the corresponding solenoid valve 806 to close and stop the air release. The air cavity 801 is now sealed again, and the air pressure is restored. The remaining telescopic frames 6 that have not yet reached their predetermined positions continue to move under this pressure until all reach their predetermined positions. At this point, the distance from the clamping contact point of all clamping assemblies 7 with the metal sheet to the edge of the metal sheet is equal.
[0053] Through the edge-finding mechanism 8, the clamping assembly 7 is moved to the edge of the metal sheet for clamping, and all clamping points are at the same distance from the edge of the metal sheet, so that the stress on the edge of the metal sheet during processing is more uniform and less likely to deform, which significantly improves the processing accuracy and surface quality of the metal sheet. Secondly, the clamp is driven to move by air pressure, and after it is in place, it actively releases pressure to position and close the solenoid valve 806, which does not affect the movement and edge-finding of other clamps. The overall structure is simple, the positioning is precise, the degree of automation is high, and the clamping efficiency is significantly improved.
[0054] The clamping assembly 7 comprises a hydraulic component 701, an electromagnet 705 and an elastic air cover 707. The hydraulic component 701 is installed at the end of the telescopic frame 6, and is directly controlled by the controller 10 to accurately exert a set pressure on the lower clamping point. The telescopic end of the hydraulic component 701 is provided with a connecting rod 702, the end of the connecting rod 702 is slidingly connected with a clamping pipe 703, the end of the connecting rod 702 is slidingly and sealingly connected with a sealing cavity on one side of the clamping pipe 703, and the outer side of the connecting rod 702 is provided with a return spring 704. The electromagnet 705 is embeddedly installed in the clamping pipe 703, the end of the clamping pipe 703 is provided with a rolling part 12, and the positions of the upper and lower rolling parts 12 correspond to each other, so that the upper and lower clamping points of the metal sheet can coincide to improve the positioning effect, and the clamping pipe 703 is movably provided with a permanent magnet 706 matched with the electromagnet 705 in a sliding cavity, for driving the connecting piece 11 and the touch rod 807 to rotate.
[0055] The elastic air cover 707 is installed on the inner wall of the sealing sliding cavity of the clamping pipe 703 to block the air hole, and the control sheet 708 connected with the permanent magnet 706 is movably installed in the sealing sliding cavity of the clamping pipe 703. When the control sheet 708 is not in contact with the elastic air cover 707, the elastic air cover 707 is in an open state, and when the control sheet 708 moves to be horizontal with the elastic air cover 707, the elastic air cover 707 is closed under pressure to block the air hole. At this time, the sealing sliding cavity of the clamping pipe 703 is in a sealed state, and the end of the connecting rod 702 cannot slide in the sealing sliding cavity of the clamping pipe 703, and the relative positions of the two are fixed.
[0056] When the telescopic frame 6 is extended from the upper positioning seat 3 and the lower positioning seat 4 under the action of the edge searching mechanism 8 or the driving mechanism 9, the return spring 704 is in a contracted state, and the control sheet 708 is located above the elastic air cover 707. When passing through the arc or undulation of the metal sheet surface, the clamping pipe 703 can overcome the elastic force of the return spring 704 and extend along the connecting rod 702, so that the rolling part 12 is always in contact with the upper and lower surfaces of the metal sheet. As shown in the figure, the electromagnet 705 is kept powered on to generate sufficient repulsive force on the permanent magnet 706 to ensure that the rolling seat 811 at the end of the touch rod 807 is in contact with the upper surface of the metal sheet, and the control sheet 708 is away from the elastic air cover 707, so that the clamping pipe 703 can extend along the connecting rod 702. Figure 5
[0057] The clamping assembly 7 in the device is divided into upper and lower parts according to the installation position and is installed at the end of the telescopic frame 6 on the upper positioning seat 3 and the lower positioning seat 4. After the telescopic frame 6 on the upper positioning seat 3 drives the clamping assembly 7 to complete the edge searching, the telescopic frame 6 on the lower positioning seat 4 can drive the clamping assembly 7 to extend to the specified position under the drive of the driving mechanism 9 until the upper and lower rolling parts 12 correspond to each other. At this time, the controller 10 can first control the electromagnet 705 to change the current direction to generate an attractive force on the permanent magnet 706, and the permanent magnet 706 slides to the electromagnet 705 direction to drive the connecting piece 11 to rotate 90 degrees, as shown in FIG. 8, to complete the folding of the edge searching mechanism 8. At the same time, since the control sheet 708 is moved to the side of the elastic air cover 707 under the drive of the permanent magnet 706 to close it, the relative position of the connecting rod 702 and the clamping pipe 703 is fixed. At this time, the controller 10 can continue to control all the hydraulic parts 701 to output a constant pressure, that is, all the rolling parts 12 correspond to each other to complete the clamping of the metal sheet and the clamping force is constant. Figure 10
[0058] Through the clamping assembly 7, the telescopic property of the clamping pipe 703 is used to make the clamping assembly 7 match the uneven metal surface during edge searching, improve the adaptability and practicality of the clamping device, and through the cooperation of the electromagnet 705 and the permanent magnet 706, the quick locking of the connecting rod 702 and the clamping pipe 703 and the quick folding of the edge searching mechanism 8 are realized, avoiding interference with the processing of the edge of the metal sheet, and both can be completed synchronously through reasonable design, good linkage, and avoiding structural redundancy.
[0059] The connecting piece 11 includes an adjusting rod 111 and a connecting block 113. The adjusting rod 111 is rotationally connected in a groove on one side of the clamping pipe 703, and the touch rod 807 is slidably connected with the adjusting rod 111 through a square shaft formed at the end. The connection of the square shaft can limit the touch rod 807 to slide relative to the adjusting rod 111 without rotating. The upper end of the touch rod 807 is rotationally connected with an adjusting sleeve 112, and the adjusting sleeve 112 is threadedly connected with the outer wall of the adjusting rod 111. By rotating the adjusting sleeve 112, the relative distance between the adjusting rod 111 and the touch rod 807 can be set, that is, the distance between the rolling seat 811 and the rolling part 12 is adjusted. This operation is also a setting and adjustment of the distance between the clamping point of the clamp and the edge of the metal sheet. One end of the connecting block 113 is rotationally connected to the lower edge of the permanent magnet 706, and the other end is slidably connected with the sliding groove on the adjusting rod 111. When the permanent magnet 706 slides up and down, the connecting block 113 can ensure the stable connection of the permanent magnet 706 and the end of the adjusting rod 111 without interference.
[0060] The flexible setting of the distance between the clamping point of the clamp and the edge of the metal sheet is realized through the connecting piece 11, the edge searching capability is optimized, the adaptability and practicality of the clamping device to different clamping requirements are further improved, and the stability of the connection between the adjusting rod 111 and the permanent magnet 706 is ensured under the premise that no motion interference is generated by using the connecting block 113.
[0061] The rolling part 12 comprises a pressure ball 121. The pressure ball 121 is installed in a ball groove at the top end of the clamping pipe 703 and can rotate freely. The surface of the pressure ball 121 is provided with an anti-skid coating. The top end of the clamping pipe 703 is also movably installed with a magnetic pressing block 122 matched with the pressure ball 121 by opening an inner groove. The magnetic pressing block 122 is controlled to slide in the clamping pipe 703 by the electromagnet 705. When the pressure ball 121 needs to be pressed to position the metal sheet, the electromagnet 705 generates an attractive force to the permanent magnet 706. When the permanent magnet 706 is located close to the electromagnet 705, the magnetic pressing block 122 is subjected to a repulsive force of the electromagnet 705 and is pressed on the pressure ball 121, so that the pressure ball 121 is positioned and cannot rotate. Conversely, when the telescopic frame 6 drives the clamping assembly 7 to move horizontally, the electromagnet 705 generates an attractive force to the magnetic pressing block 122. The pressure ball 121 can roll freely.
[0062] Through the rolling part 12, the activity and locking of the pressure ball 121 are synchronously linked and controlled by using the change of the attractive force and the repulsive force of the electromagnet 705 to the magnetic pressing block 122. The control is flexible, the state switching is rapid, the flexibility during edge searching is ensured, and the stability during clamping is also ensured.
[0063] The driving mechanism 9 comprises a motor 901, a lead screw 903, an electric automatic clutch 905 and a distance sensor 906. The motor 901 is installed in a mounting cavity inside the lower positioning seat 4. The output end of the motor 901 is connected with a main gear 902. The lead screw 903 is rotatably connected in a sliding hole of the lower positioning seat 4. The telescopic frame 6 in the sliding hole of the lower positioning seat 4 is sleeved on the lead screw 903 through a hole and the end part is connected with a sliding piece on the lead screw 903. The end part of the lead screw 903 is installed with a secondary gear 904. The electric automatic clutch 905 is installed in the mounting cavity inside the lower positioning seat 4 and is connected with the main gear 902 and the secondary gear 904 respectively. The electric automatic clutch 905 can be controlled to be connected or disconnected by the controller 10 to establish or break the power output of the main gear 902 to the secondary gear 904. The distance sensor 906 is installed on the rolling seat 811. When the rolling seat 811 slides out of the edge of the metal sheet, the distance sensor 906 extends to the lower side of the metal sheet. At this time, the distance sensor 906 can detect the distance between the rolling seat 811 and the lower clamping pipe 703, so as to judge whether the pressure ball 121 on the lower clamping pipe 703 is aligned with the pressure ball 121 on the upper clamping pipe 703.
[0064] When the edge finding mechanism 8 finishes finding the edge, the upper pressure ball 121 is in place, the controller 10 controls the motor 901 to start and the electric self-control clutch 905 ensures that all the auxiliary gears 904 can accept the power output of the main gear 902, the motor 901 drives all the lead screws 903 to rotate, and the telescopic frame 6 on the lower positioning seat 4 starts to slide out. When the controller 10 determines that the pressure ball 121 on any clamping pipe 703 is aligned with the pressure ball 121 on the upper clamping pipe 703 through the distance sensor 906, it immediately cuts off the power output of the main gear 902 to the lead screw 903 where the clamping pipe 703 is located through the electric self-control clutch 905. When all the pressure balls 121 are in place, the motor 901 can be turned off.
[0065] Through the driving mechanism 9, the displacement distance of the telescopic frame 6 on the lower positioning seat 4 is accurately controlled, ensuring that the lower pressure ball 121 can correspond to the position of the upper pressure ball 121, further improving the positioning accuracy of the clamping point.
[0066] The controller 10 is electrically connected with the flow rate sensor 805, the electromagnetic valve 806, the hydraulic part 701, the electromagnet 705, the electric self-control clutch 905, and the distance sensor 906 through wires.
[0067] The catheter 810 is made of high-pressure spring hose, which can not only ensure the telescopic property of the catheter 810, but also optimize the contraction state to avoid winding.
[0068] The inner sides of the upper positioning seat 3 and the lower positioning seat 4 are connected with the telescopic frame 6 through the opening of horizontal grooves, which can ensure the stability of the telescopic frame 6 during movement and provide support for the telescopic frame 6 during clamping, improving the clamping effect.
[0069] Working principle: When metal sheets need to be clamped, the electromagnet 705 is powered on to generate enough repulsive force on the permanent magnet 706, then the distance between the two lifting mounting plates 2 is adjusted to separate the two clamping heads of the pre-clamping assembly 5, then the metal sheets are placed between the pre-clamping assembly 5, and the distance between the two lifting mounting plates 2 is reduced until the metal sheets are preliminarily clamped by the pre-clamping assembly 5. At this time, the pressure ball 121 is in contact with the two side surfaces of the metal sheet, the rolling seat 811 is also pressed on the upper surface of the metal sheet to make the slide rod 808 retract into the touch rod 807, and the spring 812 and the return spring 704 are both in compression.
[0070] The controller 10 then activates the external air pump to pressurize the air inlet pipe 802 to the standard air pressure, and the telescopic frame 6 in the upper positioning seat 3 slides outward under the action of the air pressure. During the sliding process, the pressure ball 121 and the rollers of the rolling seat 811 remain in contact with the upper surface of the metal sheet. When any rolling seat 811 moves beyond the upper edge of the metal sheet, the sensing slide bar 808 pops out from the touch rod 807 under the action of the spring 812, and the air vent 809 begins to deflate. The flow rate sensor 805 corresponding to the telescopic frame 6 where the touch rod 807 is located detects the airflow and feeds it back to the controller 10. The controller 10 controls the corresponding solenoid valve 806 to close and stop the deflation. At this time, the air cavity 801 returns to a sealed state, the air pressure is restored, and the other telescopic frames 6 that have not yet reached their intended positions continue to move until they all reach the predetermined positions. At this point, the upper pressure ball 121 completes the edge search.
[0071] The controller 10 then activates the motor 901, which, under the action of the electric automatic clutch 905, drives all the screws 903 to rotate, causing the telescopic frame 6 on the lower positioning seat 4 to begin sliding out. When the controller 10 determines, via the distance sensor 906, that the pressure ball 121 on any clamping tube 703 is aligned with the pressure ball 121 on the clamping tube 703 above, the electric automatic clutch 905 immediately cuts off the power output from the main gear 902 to the screw 903 on that clamping tube 703. Once all the pressure balls 121 are in place, the motor 901 is turned off.
[0072] Finally, the controller 10 controls the electromagnet 705 to change the direction of the current, generating an attractive force on the permanent magnet 706. The permanent magnet 706 slides toward the electromagnet 705, causing the adjustment rod 111 to rotate 90 degrees, completing the folding of the edge-finding mechanism 8. Simultaneously, the control plate 708, driven by the permanent magnet 706, moves to the side of the elastic air cover 707, closing it. The connecting rod 702 and the clamping tube 703 are locked, and the pressure ball 121 is also locked by the magnetic pressing block 122. At this point, the metal sheet is positioned and can be processed.
