Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of limiting clamps, in particular to a limiting clamp for a punching machine of a production line. Background Art

[0002] A punch press is a mechanical device that uses pressure and molds to process materials. It is usually used to manufacture metal parts such as automobiles, airplanes, and electrical appliances. The working principle of a punch press is to place the material to be processed on the punch press, and then move the punch head (or upper mold) downward to squeeze and deform the material in the mold to obtain the desired shape and size. In the process of punching the product, a limit fixture is needed to limit the product.

[0003] According to the search, the Chinese patent document, announcement number: CN215657462U, discloses a limit clamp for a punch press. When using the limit clamp for a punch press, first twist the handle, which then drives the screw to rotate, pushes it to move in the fixed block through the thread, pulls the movable block to slide in the clamping seat through the first limit slide groove and the first limit slider, and adjusts the positions of the other two movable blocks in the same way, then places the product on the clamping seat, and turns the handle to push the movable block to move through the screw to clamp the product.

[0004] However, in actual use, the above-mentioned limit clamp needs to manually rotate the handle in sequence to drive the clamp block to move. The three clamp blocks cooperate to clamp the workpiece. However, since the handle needs to be rotated three times, it is impossible to ensure that each clamp block moves the same distance, and thus it is impossible to ensure that the tool is clamped in the center. This makes the position of the workpiece uncertain after being clamped, and the position of the punching machine when processing it is random, which cannot meet actual needs. In addition, if the workpiece is under the punch of the punch during the clamping process, there will be certain safety hazards. To this end, we propose a limit clamp for production line punching machines to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] 1. Technical issues to be solved

[0006] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a limit clamp for a punching machine in a production line, which can center and clamp the workpiece to be punched, ensuring that the workpiece is directly below the punch of the punching machine and is not below the punch of the punching machine before punching, thereby improving safety and solving the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0007] (II) Technical solution

[0008] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a limit clamp for a punching machine in a production line, comprising a punching machine worktable, a guide rail is installed on the top of the punching machine worktable, the outer surface of the guide rail is slidably connected to the bottom plate, the top surface of the bottom plate is fixedly connected to the punching table, two clamps are slidably connected inside the punching table, the two sides of the clamps are fixedly connected to ear blocks, the inner surface of the ear blocks is slidably connected to a light rod, the outer surface of the light rod is sleeved with a spring, the top surface of the bottom plate is rotatably connected to a rotating rod, the outer surface of the rotating rod is plugged with a cam, and the outer surface of the rotating rod is fixedly connected to a connecting rod, one end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to a hinge seat, a No. 1 cylinder is connected to the hinge seat through a shaft, a fixed plate is fixedly connected to the top surface of the bottom plate, the outer surface of the fixed plate is connected to the No. 2 cylinder, and the outer surface of the light rod is movably connected to the side plate.

[0009] Preferably, both ends of the light rod are provided with limit blocks, the outer surface of the cam contacts the side plate and one of the clamping plates, a slide groove is penetrated through the outer surface of the side plate, and the connecting rod is inserted into the slide groove of the side plate.

[0010] Through the above technical scheme, the workpiece to be stamped is placed on the top surface of the stamping table. When the No. 1 cylinder is started, its push rod end drives the hinge seat, the hinge seat drives the connecting rod, the connecting rod drives the rotating rod to rotate, the rotating rod drives the cam to rotate, and the cam hits the side plate and one of the clamps during rotation. In this way, the side plate pulls the limit block at one end of the light rod, and the limit block at the other end of the light rod pulls the other clamp. In this way, the two clamps move toward each other, thereby clamping the workpiece to be stamped and ensuring that the workpiece is in the center position of the stamping table.

[0011] Preferably, two ends of the spring abut against ear blocks, a dovetail groove is provided on the top of the punching table, and the bottom of the clamping plate is fixedly connected to a dovetail tenon.

[0012] Through the above technical solution, the dovetail tenon at the bottom of the splint slides in the dovetail groove of the stamping table during movement, thereby ensuring the correct movement direction of the splint. When the cam moves in the opposite direction, the gap between the side plate and one of the splints becomes smaller, and under the action of the spring, it hits the two ear blocks, thereby driving the two splints to separate, and then the clamped workpiece can be released.

[0013] Preferably, a circular hole is opened in the center of the top of the punching table, a control switch is installed in the circular hole, the control switch is used to control the No. 1 cylinder, and a compression spring is installed in the circular hole, and the top of the compression spring contacts the pressure block.

[0014] Through the above technical solution, when the workpiece is placed on the top surface of the stamping table, the workpiece will press the pressing block to make it move downward, and then the pressing block will press the control switch. The control switch is turned on to start the No. 1 cylinder, and the push rod end of the No. 1 cylinder begins to extend. In this way, after the workpiece is placed on the stamping table, the No. 1 cylinder can be automatically started to drive the two clamps to clamp the workpiece, thereby improving the efficiency of clamping the workpiece.

[0015] Preferably, the top surface of the punch press workbench is fixedly connected to a mounting plate, and a No. 2 cylinder is mounted on the outer surface of the mounting plate.

[0016] Through the above technical scheme, the mounting plate is used to connect the No. 2 cylinder. When the workpiece is clamped by the two clamps, the No. 2 cylinder is started to drive the fixed plate, and the fixed plate drives the bottom plate to move. The two guide rails ensure the movement direction of the bottom plate, and the bottom plate drives the stamping table to move. In this way, the stamping table can be moved to the bottom of the punch of the punch press. By setting the stroke of the No. 2 cylinder, the center of the stamping table can be accurately moved to the bottom of the punch of the punch press, thus avoiding placing the workpiece to be stamped under the punch of the punch press, which not only facilitates the placement of the workpiece but also improves safety.

[0017] Preferably, three buttons are installed on the top surface of the punch press workbench, two of which are used to control cylinder No. 2, and the other button is used to control cylinder No. 1.

[0018] Through the above technical solution, the No. 2 cylinder can only be started when the two symmetrical buttons are started synchronously, thus avoiding misoperation. When the workpiece is clamped by the two clamps, the No. 1 cylinder can be reset by starting another button, so that the two clamps can release the workpiece.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides a limit clamp for a production line punch press, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. The utility model places the workpiece to be punched on the top surface of the punching table. When the No. 1 cylinder is started, its push rod end drives the hinge seat, the hinge seat drives the connecting rod, the connecting rod drives the rotating rod to rotate, the rotating rod drives the cam to rotate, and the cam contacts the side plate and one of the clamping plates during rotation. In this way, the side plate pulls the limit block at one end of the light rod, and the limit block at the other end of the light rod pulls the other clamping plate. In this way, the two clamping plates move toward each other, thereby clamping the workpiece to be punched and ensuring that the workpiece is in the center position of the punching table.

[0021] 2. The utility model starts the No. 2 cylinder to drive the fixed plate, and the fixed plate drives the bottom plate to move. The two guide rails ensure the movement direction of the bottom plate. The bottom plate drives the stamping table to move, so that the stamping table can be moved to the bottom of the punch of the punch press. By setting the stroke of the No. 2 cylinder, the center of the stamping table can be accurately moved to the bottom of the punch of the punch press, thus avoiding placing the workpiece to be stamped under the punch of the punch press, which not only facilitates the placement of the workpiece but also improves safety.
