[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 8 This embodiment provides a multi-functional clamping fixture capable of clamping electronic cigarette accessories. In this embodiment, the electronic cigarette accessories include a battery 13, a housing 11, and a charging module 12. The first accessory mentioned in this invention is the housing 11, the second accessory is the charging module 12, and the third accessory is the battery 13. In this invention, the housing 11 needs to be pre-positioned before the battery 13 is installed inside the housing 11, and then the charging module 12 is installed at the end of the housing 11, wherein the charging module 12 and the housing 11 form a combined assembly. The multi-functional clamping fixture needs to fix the battery 13, the housing 11, and the charging module 12 separately, and then use the fixture to install multiple accessories together.

[0025] It should be noted that this embodiment provides a clamping example for electronic cigarettes, but the multi-functional clamping fixture in this embodiment is not limited to electronic cigarettes, and can also be used for clamping multiple accessories of other products.

[0026] The multi-functional clamping fixture includes a carrier body 1, a flipping assembly 2, a double-sided limiting assembly 3, a clamping assembly 4, a gap adjustment assembly 5, a positioning structure 6, a push plate assembly 7, and a cable routing assembly 8.

[0027] Among them, the flipping component 2, the double-sided limiting component 3, the pressing component 4, the gap adjustment component 5, the positioning structure 6, the push plate component 7, and the wiring component 8 are all installed on the carrier body 1 to complete the limiting and installation of the shell 11, the charging module 12, and the battery 13.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7The housing 11 is first installed on the carrier body 1. The gap adjustment component 5 is then installed on the housing 11 for gap adjustment when the battery 13 is inserted into the housing 11. The clamping component 4 clamps the housing 11 from one side, clamping and positioning the housing 11 in the width direction. The push plate component 7 pushes and presses the housing 11 from the end, clamping and positioning the housing 11 in the length direction. The double-sided limiting component 3 is detachably installed at the end of the carrier body 1. One side of the double-sided limiting component 3 limits the other end of the housing 11, that is, the push plate component 7 pushes the end of the housing 11, so that the other end of the housing 11 is limited to one side of the double-sided limiting component 3. Adhesive can be applied inside the housing 11 for bonding with the battery 13. Next, the battery 13 is installed on the flip assembly 2 through the positioning structure 6. Then, the flip assembly 2 is rotated 180° to snap the battery 13 into the housing 11. During the process of the battery 13 entering the housing 11, the gap between the battery 13 and the housing 11 is adjusted by the gap adjustment component 5. Then, the battery 13 is pressed slightly to make the glue in the housing 11 fully contact the battery 13, thus completing the bonding and positioning of the battery 13 and the housing 11.

[0029] Remove the gap adjustment component 5, remove the double-sided limiting component 3, then install the charging module 12 at the end of the housing 11 near the double-sided limiting component 3, then flip the double-sided limiting component 3 over so that the double-sided limiting component 3 is connected to the carrier body 1, so that the other side of the double-sided limiting component 3 limits the assembly of the housing 11 connected to the charging module 12.

[0030] After the charging module 12 and housing 11 are assembled and positioned, the wiring harness 8 is then connected to the carrier body 1 to secure the wiring at the rear of the battery 13 or housing 11. Once completed, the entire fixture is fed into the production line for subsequent operations.

[0031] The housing 11, charging module 12, and battery 13 in this invention need to be pre-fixed before installation. During the installation of the battery 13 onto the housing 11, multiple limiting mechanisms are applied. After the charging module 12 is installed at the end of the housing 11, a double-sided limiting component 3 is also used for fixation. This component flips itself so that its different sides align with the main body 1, limiting the positions of the housing 11 and the assembled end with the charging module 12 installed. This ensures precise positioning of the housing 11, charging module 12, and battery 13 with the main body 1 as the base, reducing installation errors between components and improving the overall quality of the electronic cigarette.

[0032] Reference Figure 2The vehicle body 1 includes a first mounting slot 14 and a second mounting slot 15, both of which are elongated slots, and are spaced apart. The first mounting slot 14 is used to mount the housing 11 and the charging module 12, and the battery 13 is confined within the second mounting slot 15.

[0033] Combination Figure 4 The double-sided limiting component 3 is located near the first mounting groove 14 and is detachably mounted on the end of the vehicle body 1. The double-sided limiting component 3 is connected to the end of the vehicle body 1 via magnetic attraction. Specifically, the vehicle body 1 includes a splicing surface 16 for connecting to the double-sided limiting component 3. The splicing surface 16 is provided with a first magnet 161 and a first guide hole 162. The double-sided limiting component 3 includes a first connecting surface 31 and a second connecting surface 32, which are arranged opposite to each other. By flipping the double-sided limiting component 3, the first connecting surface 31 and the second connecting surface 32 can be respectively mated and connected to the splicing surface 16.

[0034] The first connecting surface 31 and the second connecting surface 32 are each provided with a second magnet 311 and a first guide post 312. The first magnet 161 and the second magnet 311 have opposite magnetic properties and can attract each other. The first guide post 312 and the first guide hole 162 can guide each other for precise positioning. In this way, the double-sided limiting assembly 3 is attracted to each other by magnets and precisely positioned by mutual guidance through the first guide post 312 and the first guide hole 162, realizing the detachable connection between the double-sided limiting assembly 3 and the carrier body 1.

[0035] Of course, a first guide post 312 can also be set on the splicing surface 16, and a first guide hole 162 can be set on the first connecting surface 31 and the second connecting surface 32 to achieve the guiding cooperation between the two.

[0036] The double-sided limiting assembly 3 also includes a first limiting structure 33 and a second limiting structure 34. The first limiting structure 33 and the second limiting structure 34 are groove-shaped structures, which can limit the ends of the housing 11 and the charging module 12, respectively. The first limiting structure 33 is disposed on the side wall of the first connecting surface 31, and the second limiting structure 34 is disposed on the side wall of the second connecting surface 32. When the double-sided limiting assembly 3 is connected to the carrier body 1 through the first connecting surface 31, the end of the housing 11 (at this time, the charging module 12 is not assembled with the housing 11) can be limited within the first limiting structure 33; when it is necessary to limit the combination of the charging module 12 and the housing 11, the charging module 12 is assembled onto the housing 11, the double-sided limiting assembly 3 is flipped, the second connecting surface 32 is connected to the carrier body 1, and the end of the charging module 12 is limited within the second limiting structure 34.

[0037] It should be noted that during the installation of the housing 11, charging module 12, and battery 13, the first limiting structure 33 first limits the end of the housing 11. The charging module 12 is not yet installed on the housing 11. The battery 13 is first flipped and installed inside the housing 11. Glue can be applied inside the housing 11, and the battery 13 is glued to the inside of the housing 11. After the battery 13 is positioned, the double-sided limiting assembly 3 is removed, that is, pulled outward from the end of the carrier body 1. The charging module 12 is then assembled with the housing 11. The double-sided limiting assembly 3 is flipped, and the second connecting surface 32 in the double-sided limiting assembly 3 is connected to the carrier body 1. The second limiting structure 34 is used to limit the charging module 12. After the limiting is completed, the multi-functional clamping fixture can be transferred to other workstations along the production line for the next step of the operation.

[0038] The double-sided limiting component 3 in this embodiment can limit the housing 11, and can also limit the combination of the charging module 12 and the housing 11 with different structures after being rotated 180°, that is, to achieve the limiting of two different structures at the same position, which is convenient and quick.

[0039] The double-sided limiting component 3 can limit the end of the housing 11 in the length direction. The housing 11 still needs to be limited and fixed in the width direction. For this purpose, the carrier body 1 is also provided with a clamping component 4, which can clamp and limit the housing 11 from the long side (i.e. the width direction).

[0040] Combination Figure 5Specifically, the clamping assembly 4 is disposed on one side of the first mounting groove 14. The clamping assembly 4 includes a clamping fixing seat 41, a push block 42, a pull rod 43, an abutment spring 44, and a cam handle 45. The clamping fixing seat 41 is fixedly mounted on the carrier body 1, and the fixing method can be bolt connection or welding. The clamping fixing seat 41 has a hole in which the pull rod 43 slides, and the sliding direction of the pull rod 43 is towards or away from the first mounting groove 14. The end of the pull rod 43 near the first mounting groove 14 is fixedly connected to the push block 42. There can be two abutment springs 44, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the pull rod 43, and the two ends of the abutment springs 44 abut against the push block 42 and the clamping fixing seat 41 respectively. That is, the abutment springs 44 apply an elastic force to the push block 42, so that the push block 42 has a tendency to move towards the first mounting groove 14. Of course, the number of abutment springs 44 can be three, four, or even more. Multiple abutment springs 44 are parallel to each other, and more abutment springs 44 can improve the stability of the pull rod's operation. The cam handle 45 is connected to the other end of the pull rod 43 via a shaft. A retaining ring is provided between the cam handle 45 and the shaft, locking into the shaft and the cam handle 45 to prevent axial movement of the cam handle 45 during rotation. The cam handle 45 and the push block 42 are located on opposite sides of the clamping base 41. The cam handle 45 can rotate at the end of the pull rod 43, and the end of the cam handle 45 abuts against the clamping base 41. Rotating the cam handle 45 at different angles can pull the pull rod 43 to different positions within the clamping base 41, thus placing the push block 42 in different positions. By rotating the cam handle 45, the position of the push block 42 can be adjusted, allowing the push block 42 to selectively abut against the housing 11 within the first mounting groove 14 or to move away from and release the housing 11.

[0041] Combination Figure 7The multi-functional clamping fixture also includes a pusher assembly 7, which is used to push and press the housing 11 along its own length. Specifically, the pusher assembly 7 is mounted on the carrier body 1 and includes a pusher plate 71, a slide rod 72, a pusher spring 73, and a pusher 74. The slide rod 72 is slidably mounted on the bottom of the carrier body 1. If an elongated hole is opened at the bottom of the carrier body 1, the slide rod 72 slides in the elongated hole, and the sliding direction of the slide rod 72 is consistent with the length direction of the housing 11. The pusher plate 71 is fixedly connected to one end of the slide rod 72 and moves away from or towards the end of the housing 11 under the action of the slide rod 72. A pair of pusher springs 73 are provided, arranged side by side, and the extension direction of the pusher springs 73 is consistent with the length direction of the slide rod 72. The two ends of the pusher springs 73 abut against the pusher plate 71 and the carrier body 1, respectively, and the pusher springs 73 apply elastic force to the pusher plate 71, causing the pusher plate 71 to abut against the end of the housing 11. The pusher 74 is connected to the other end of the slide rod 72. The pusher 74 includes a stepped surface 741 and a hole is opened on the pusher 74. The other end of the slide rod 72 can pass through the hole and abut against the stepped surface 741. The slide rod 72 can achieve different displacements in its own length direction at different positions of the stepped surface 741. By moving the pusher 74, one end of the slide rod 72 can be displaced to different positions of the stepped surface 741, so that the slide rod 72 can move back and forth, that is, the pusher plate 71 can move closer to or away from the housing 11, and thus abut or separate from the housing 11.

[0042] In this embodiment, the push plate assembly 7 abuts and fixes the housing 11 from the end of the housing 11 in the length direction, and the pressing assembly 4 abuts and fixes the housing 11 from the side of the housing 11 in the width direction. The positioning of the housing 11 is achieved through the abutment of the two.

[0043] Combination Figure 6 The gap adjustment component 5 is used to adjust the gap between the battery 13 and the housing 11. During the installation of the battery 13 into the housing 11, the gap adjustment component 5 needs to be installed inside the housing 11 first, and then the battery 13 is installed into the housing 11. Specifically, the gap adjustment component 5 includes a positioning seat 51, an end positioning block 52, and a side limiting piece 53. The end positioning block 52 and the side limiting piece 53 are both connected to the bottom of the positioning seat 51, and the connection method can be integral molding or welding. The end positioning block 52 is block-shaped and is used to insert into the groove of the carrier body 1 for positioning the gap adjustment component 5 itself on the carrier body 1. The side limiting piece 53 is used to lock into the side of the housing 11. There are two side limiting pieces 53, which are respectively attached to the inner sidewall extending in the length direction of the housing 11, adjusting the gap between the two sides of the battery 13 and the two sides inside the housing 11. The positioning seat 51 also has a guide hole, which can be guided and positioned on the carrier body 1 through the guide post.

[0044] Specifically, the gap adjustment component 5 is used as follows: First, insert the gap adjustment component 5 into the housing 11. Then, flip the battery 13 into the housing 11. The end positioning block 52 is inserted into the carrier body 1 and guided by the guide post to ensure that the gap adjustment component 5 is stably positioned on the carrier body 1, guaranteeing that the battery 13 remains in the same position and does not wobble when inserted into the housing 11. Two side limiting pieces 53 are respectively locked between the two sides of the battery 13 and the two sides of the housing 11 to adjust the gap between the sides. After the battery 13 is bonded to the housing 11, pull the gap adjustment component 5 upwards. The gap between the battery 13 and the housing 11 can be adjusted by using the gap adjustment component 5, allowing for quick and easy insertion and removal.

[0045] Battery 13 is mounted on flipping assembly 2. Specifically, flipping assembly 2 includes flipping base plate 21, which is rotatably engaged with carrier body 1. Carrier body 1 has a shaft, and flipping base plate 21 includes bearing 22. The shaft passes through bearing 22, allowing flipping base plate 21 to rotate relative to carrier body 1. Positioning structure 6 is mounted on flipping base plate 21 and is used for positioning and fixing battery 13.

[0046] The positioning structure 6 includes a rotating locking block 61, which is rotatably mounted on the flip base plate 21. A magnet can be mounted on the rotating locking block 61 for engaging with the flip base plate 21. When the rotating locking block 61 flips downwards, it engages with the flip base plate 21, confining the battery 13 within the second mounting groove 15. It should be noted that a portion of the flip base plate 21 is located at the bottom of the second mounting groove 15; that is, the two sidewalls of the battery 13 are confined within the second mounting groove 15, while the bottom of the battery 13 is located on the flip base plate 21. Therefore, when the flip base plate 21 rotates, it can cause the battery 13 to move upwards and disengage from the second mounting groove 15.

[0047] Combination Figure 3 The positioning structure 6 also includes a detachable suction seat 622 and a negative pressure device (not shown in the figure). The negative pressure device is a common structure, consisting of a vacuum pump and piping. The flip base plate 21 includes a suction hole 621, one end of which extends to the bottom of the battery 13, i.e., the second mounting groove 15, and the other end extends to the end of the flip base plate 21 body. The suction seat 622 is used to connect with the negative pressure device and provide negative pressure suction within the suction hole 621. The connection between the suction seat 622 and the flip base plate 21 also uses magnetic attraction and guide post engagement, and the connection method is the same as that of the double-sided limiting component 3 and the carrier body 1.

[0048] During the positioning process of battery 13, firstly, battery 13 is installed in the second mounting groove 15 (part of the main body of the flip base plate 21 is located at the bottom of the second mounting groove 15, the two side walls of battery 13 are limited in the second mounting groove 15, and the bottom of battery 13 is installed on the flip base plate 21). The rotating buckle is flipped to pre-position battery 13 in the second mounting groove 15. Then, the suction seat 622 is inserted into the flip base plate 21 to perform negative pressure adsorption on battery 13. After the battery 13 is adsorbed by negative pressure, the rotating buckle is opened. At this time, because battery 13 is adsorbed from the bottom by negative pressure, it will not fall or shift when it is flipped with the flip base plate 21. The flip base plate 21 is flipped 180° to flip and snap the battery 13 into the housing 11, completing the installation of battery 13 and housing 11.

[0049] Combination Figure 8 The multi-functional clamping fixture also includes a wiring assembly 8, which is detachably mounted on the carrier body 1 and can limit the wiring harness of the electronic cigarette. Specifically, after the battery 13 is flipped and positioned by the flipping assembly 2, the wiring assembly 8 is inserted into the carrier body 1. The carrier body 1 is provided with at least two sockets 17, each socket 17 is provided with a ball plunger 171, and the wiring assembly 8 includes at least two pins 81. The pins 81 are inserted into the corresponding sockets 17 and positioned by the ball plunger 171. A limiting channel 82 is formed between the two pins 81, which constrains the wiring harness, keeping it within the limiting channel 82 and preventing the wiring harness from becoming tangled. The wiring harness referred to in this embodiment is the wiring harness used to connect the housing 11 or the battery 13, and this wiring harness can be used for subsequent performance testing of the electronic cigarette.

[0050] Because the multi-functional clamping fixture moves along the assembly line, it requires multiple processes. The main body 1 of the carrier is also equipped with multiple anti-collision blocks 18, which are elastic elements such as rubber. The anti-collision blocks 18 are bolted to the ends or sides of the main body 1 to protect the multi-functional clamping fixture from impact damage.

[0051] The main body of the vehicle 1 includes multiple guide sleeves 19, which can be guided and engaged with other components to move in a straight line.
