Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of numerical control machine tool processing equipment, in particular to a clamp fixing mechanism for a numerical control machine tool. Background Art

[0002] A CNC machine tool is a machine tool that uses a computer control system to accurately control the machining process. It can automatically perform pre-programmed machining operations and has the characteristics of high precision, high efficiency and flexibility. CNC machine tools are usually composed of mechanical structures, CNC systems, drive systems and sensors. By inputting machining programs and parameters, CNC machine tools can complete various complex machining tasks, such as milling, turning, drilling, etc. CNC machine tools generally need to use a fixture to clamp the workpiece during machining. The fixture is a device used to clamp the workpiece on the CNC machine tool for machining. It can be controlled by the CNC system to automatically clamp and release the workpiece to achieve an efficient and precise machining process.

[0003] When CNC machine tools are clamping and fixing, the workpiece is generally clamped by two automatically controlled clamps. When it comes to workpieces of different diameters, the corresponding clamp heads need to be replaced to ensure uniform clamping force and workpiece processing stability. At the same time, the clamp heads also need to be disassembled and repaired regularly. The current CNC machine tool clamp fixing mechanism usually fixes the clamp bodies with bolts. Although this fixing method is stable, it will waste a long time during disassembly, thereby extending the downtime of the equipment and causing a decrease in production efficiency. At the same time, when the clamp head clamps the workpiece, the outer wall of the workpiece will be damaged due to excessive clamping force, resulting in poor use effect. Utility Model Content

The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0024] Please refer to Figure 1-5A CNC machine tool fixture fixing mechanism comprises a base plate 1, and a fixing block 2 is fixedly connected to both sides of the front and rear ends of the base plate 1, and a plurality of fixing blocks 2 are provided with fixing holes 201 for installing bolts; so that the fixing block 2 can be firmly fixed in the required position by a plurality of bolts to ensure that it will not move or loosen during use, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the system; through a plurality of fixing holes 201, the connection points between the fixing block 2 and other components can be increased, thereby enhancing the stability and bearing capacity of the entire structure; two groups of fixing seats 3 are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1, and hydraulic cylinders 4 are fixedly connected to the two groups of fixing seats 3, and connecting seats 5 are fixedly connected to the piston rods of the two groups of hydraulic cylinders 4; fixture seats 6 are inserted into the two groups of connecting seats 5, and fixture heads are fixedly connected to the two groups of fixture seats 6 7. The two groups of clamp seats 6 and the corresponding clamp heads 7 are all of an integrated structure; this can ensure that the connection between the clamp seats 6 and the clamp heads 7 is more secure, reducing the possibility of failure of the clamp heads 7 due to looseness or deformation of the connection parts, thereby enhancing the stability and reliability of the clamp heads 7, increasing the overall rigidity, reducing deformation and vibration, and improving the processing accuracy and quality. At the same time, it simplifies the manufacturing and installation processes and improves production efficiency. The two groups of clamp heads 7 are fixedly connected with protective pads 8, and the two groups of protective pads 8 are made of polyurethane as raw material; polyurethane has good wear resistance, can effectively resist friction and wear, and extend the service life of the protective pads 8. Polyurethane has good resistance to many chemicals, can maintain stability in harsh working environments, and is not easily corroded or damaged.

[0025] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, a connecting assembly 9 is provided between the two groups of connecting seats 5 and the corresponding clamp seats 6, and the connecting assembly 9 includes a connecting rod 901 slidably connected to the two sides of the connecting seat 5, and a slot corresponding to the clamp seat 6 is opened on the front end surface of the connecting seat 5, and the clamp seat 6 is installed in the center of the slot; the center position of the slot can ensure that the clamp seat 6 is accurately positioned and installed, so that the alignment between the clamp seat 6 and the connecting seat 5 is more precise, thereby ensuring the accuracy and stability of workpiece clamping, which can effectively improve the stability of the clamp head 7, reduce processing errors and workpiece damage caused by the offset or shaking of the clamp seat 6, and facilitate subsequent limit fixing operations while completing rapid positioning. Corresponding installation slots are opened on both sides of the slot and the clamp seat 6, and the other ends of the two connecting rods 901 pass through the center of the corresponding installation slot; it can be achieved through the two connecting rods 901 The connecting seat 5 and the clamp seat 6 are fixed to each other, so that they have strong connection stability, ensuring the clamping effect of the clamp head 7. A limited slide groove 902 is set on the top of the connecting seat 5, and one end of the two connecting rods 901 is fixedly connected to a connecting frame 903, and the two connecting frames 903 are slidably connected to the center of the limited slide groove 902. The two connecting frames 903 are fixedly connected with springs 904, and the other ends of the two springs 904 are connected to the connecting seat 5. The tops of the two connecting frames 903 are fixedly connected with pull plates 905; the staff only needs to open the two pull plates 905 with one hand, thereby driving the two connecting frames 903 to slide in the center of the limited slide groove 902, and the two connecting rods 901 slide accordingly, leaving the center of the clamp seat 6, and then directly take out the clamp seat 6 and the clamp head 7. The disassembly operation is relatively simple compared to the traditional fixing method.

[0026] The working principle of the utility model is: first, the fixing block 2 is installed on the equipment by bolts, and then the workpiece is placed between the two groups of clamp heads 7, and then the two groups of hydraulic cylinders 4 are started. The piston rods of the two groups of hydraulic cylinders 4 drive the two groups of connecting seats 5 to move, and then the clamp head 7 moves accordingly to clamp the workpiece located in the center. The setting of the two groups of clamp heads 7 makes the clamping more balanced and stable, and has strong stability. After the workpiece is clamped, its end can be processed, and the operation when the other end is replaced is the same. When it is necessary to clamp workpieces of different sizes or to maintain the clamp head 7, the staff only needs to open the two pull plates 905 with one hand, and then drive the two connecting frames 903 to slide in the center of the limiting slide groove 902, and the two connecting rods 901 slide accordingly, leaving the center of the clamp seat 6, and then directly take out the clamp seat 6 and the clamp head 7. The disassembly operation is relatively simple compared with the traditional fixing method, saving manpower, and the installation operation is the same.
