[0007] The beneficial effects of adopting the utility model are:
[0008] The meshing member described in the utility model is slidably connected to the main body, and a driving member is provided on the main body. The rotation of the driving member is converted into a linear displacement of the meshing member, thereby controlling the meshing member to approach or move away from the screw rod.

At the same time, it can also limit the upper connecting plate from rotating with the screw rod, thereby ensuring that the upper clip and the lower clip can open and close normally; in addition, when the engaging member is disengaged from the screw rod, the second spring acts on the lower connecting plate, and drives the sliding member to move as a whole through the lower connecting plate, thereby controlling the upper clip to move away from the lower clip, realizing the automatic separation of the upper clip and the lower clip, without the need for the user to perform manual operation, providing convenience for the user, and helping to improve the user experience.
[0013] Preferably, a stabilizing ring is installed on the lower connecting plate, and the stabilizing ring is sleeved on the outside of the screw and adapted to the screw so that the stabilizing ring can slide relative to the screw along the screw axis.

[0034] Embodiment 1:
[0035] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this embodiment shows a clamping device, including a main body 1, a screw rod 11, an upper clamping piece 12, a lower clamping piece 13, a sliding member 3 and a locking handle 14 installed on the screw rod 11, wherein the main body 1 is a cylindrical structure, the sliding member 3 includes an upper connecting plate 31, an intermediate sliding shaft 32 and a lower connecting plate 33 connected in sequence, the lower connecting plate 33 is slidably connected to the inside of the main body 1, one end of the intermediate sliding shaft 32 is fixed to the lower connecting plate 33, and the other end extends along the axial direction of the main body 1 to the outside of the main body 1 and is fixedly connected to the upper connecting plate 31, and the two ends of the screw rod 11 are respectively The locking handle 14 is fixed to the end of the screw rod 11 close to the upper connecting plate 31, and the locking handle 14 rotates to drive the rotation of the screw rod 11. The upper clamp 12 is fixedly installed on the upper connecting plate 31, and the lower clamp 13 is fixedly installed on the end of the main body 1. A clamping space is formed between the upper clamp 12 and the lower clamp 13 to facilitate clamping the crossbeam of the bicycle. The sliding member 3 moves along the axial direction of the main body 1 to control the upper clamp 12 to approach or move away from the lower clamp 13.
[0036] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, a meshing member 22 is slidably provided in the main body 1, and a convex tooth 223 meshing with the screw rod 11 is provided at one end of the meshing member 22 facing the screw rod 11. A driving member 23 is provided on the main body 1. The meshing member 22 and the main body 1 are relatively fixed in the axial direction of the screw rod 11, and the sliding direction of the meshing member 22 remains perpendicular to the axial direction of the screw rod 11. The driving member 23 is threadedly connected to the meshing member 22. When the driving member 23 rotates, it drives the meshing member 22 to be relatively close to or away from the screw rod 11, so that the meshing member 22 can remain meshed with or disengaged from the screw rod 11.
[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, when the upper clamping piece 12 and the lower clamping piece 13 clamp the crossbar of the bicycle, the driving member 23 rotates the electric engagement member 22 to move toward the screw rod 11 until the convex teeth 223 engage with the screw rod 11. Through the cooperation of the engagement member 22 and the screw rod 11, the screw rod 11 can be restricted from moving axially at will, thereby achieving axial locking of the screw rod 11 to maintain the clamping force of the upper clamping piece 12 and the lower clamping piece 13. When the spacing between the upper clamping piece 12 and the lower clamping piece 13 needs to be fine-tuned to adapt to the bicycle, When the cross beam of the bicycle is clamped, the screw rod 11 can be driven to rotate by rotating the locking handle 14. Since the screw rod 11 is engaged with the engaging member 22, the screw rod 11 will move along the axial direction of the main body 1 during the rotation. The movement of the screw rod 11 drives the upper connecting plate 31 to move, thereby controlling the upper clamp 12 to approach or move away from the lower clamp 13, so that the clamping space can adapt to bicycles with various cross beam shapes, and the upper clamp 12 and the lower clamp 13 can be adjusted steplessly, which is beneficial to improving the application range of the clamping device.
[0038] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, when the bicycle needs to be installed between the upper clamp 12 and the lower clamp 13 or the bicycle needs to be removed, the engaging member 22 is controlled by rotating the driving member 23 to move away from the screw rod 11 in the radial direction of the screw rod 11 until the convex teeth 223 of the engaging member 22 are disengaged from the screw rod 11. At this time, the engaging member 22 releases the restriction on the screw rod 11, and the screw rod 11 can move freely in the axial direction of the main body 1. The movement of the screw rod 11 drives the upper connecting plate 31 to move, thereby controlling the upper clamp 12 to approach or move away from the lower clamp 13. Since the screw rod 11 and the main body 1 are not constrained in the axial direction, the adjustment speed of the upper clamp 12 can be accelerated, so as to achieve rapid clamping or disengagement of the bicycle cross beam, which is beneficial to improving maintenance efficiency.
[0039] The driving member 23 described in this embodiment converts the circumferential rotation into the linear displacement of the meshing member 22, thereby controlling the meshing member 22 to approach or move away from the screw rod 11. When the meshing member 22 remains meshed with the screw rod 11, the driving member 23 rotates to control the meshing member 22 to move away from the screw rod 11 in the radial direction of the screw rod 11. The disengagement direction of the meshing member 22 can reduce the friction between the meshing member 22 and the screw rod 11, thereby reducing the external force required to disengage from the screw rod 11, making the disengagement of the meshing member 22 from the screw rod 11 faster and more labor-saving. At the same time, it can also reduce the possibility of the meshing member 22 getting stuck, making the cooperation between the meshing member 22 and the screw rod 11 more stable and reliable.
[0040] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in order to make the rotation of the driving member 23 more labor-saving and convenient, the end of the driving member 23 away from the meshing member 22 in this embodiment is exposed from the main body 1 and is fixedly connected with an unlocking switch 24. The unlocking switch 24 rotates to drive the driving member 23 to rotate, thereby controlling the meshing member 22 to approach or move away from the screw rod 11. The unlocking switch 24 has two rotation directions, namely an unlocking direction and a locking direction. When the unlocking switch 24 rotates toward the unlocking direction, the driving member 23 controls the meshing member 22 to move away from the screw rod 11, so that the meshing member 22 is disengaged from the screw rod 11; and when the unlocking switch 24 rotates toward the locking direction, the driving member 23 controls the meshing member 22 to approach the screw rod 11, so that the meshing member 22 remains meshed with the screw rod 11. The unlocking switch 24 can increase the circumferential side area of the driving member 23, provide a larger force application surface for the user, and make the rotation of the driving member 23 more labor-saving. It provides convenience for the user's operation and is conducive to improving the user's experience; in addition, a torsion spring 241 is provided between the unlocking switch 24 and the main body 1, and the two ends of the torsion spring 241 act on the unlocking switch 24 and the main body 1 respectively. The torsion spring 241 makes the unlocking switch 24 have a movement tendency to rotate in the locking direction, that is, the engaging member 22 has a movement tendency to maintain engagement with the screw rod 11. When the engaging member 22 is engaged with the screw rod 11, the torsion spring 241 can strengthen the matching strength of the engaging member 22 and the screw rod 11, and improve the locking ability of the engaging member 22 to the screw rod 11, thereby making the upper clamping piece 12 and the lower clamping piece 13 clamp the bicycle more stably and reliably, providing convenience for the user to repair the bicycle; in addition, the torsion spring 241 can also reduce the possibility of the engaging member 22 and the screw rod 11 being separated at will, thereby reducing the possibility of the bicycle falling off, which is conducive to improving the safety of the maintenance process.
[0041] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a mounting sleeve 2 is provided at the end of the main body 1, and the mounting sleeve 2 is fixed in the main body 1. The mounting sleeve 2 is provided with a through hole 25 for the screw rod 11 to pass through and a sliding cavity 21 for the engaging member 22 to slide, wherein the sliding cavity 21 penetrates the mounting sleeve 2 along the radial direction of the mounting sleeve 2, the through hole 25 is kept in communication with the sliding cavity 21, and the axial direction of the through hole 25 is kept perpendicular to the axial direction of the sliding cavity 21, and a first spring 225 is provided between the main body 1 and the engaging member 22, and the two ends of the first spring 225 are respectively against the inner wall of the engaging member 22 and the main body 1, and the first spring 225 makes the engaging member 22 have a movement tendency to move toward the screw rod 11, and when the engaging member 22 is kept in mesh with the screw rod 11, the first spring 225 can form a resistance to the engaging member 22 from disengaging from the screw rod 11, further reducing the possibility of the engaging member 22 from arbitrarily disengaging from the screw rod 11, making the meshing of the engaging member 22 and the screw rod 11 more stable and reliable, so that the clamping device can keep stably clamping the bicycle.
[0042] It should be noted that, in order to make the cooperation between the first spring 225 and the engaging member 22 more stable, the end of the engaging member 22 described in this embodiment is provided with a positioning groove for the first spring 225 to extend into, and the positioning groove can form a circumferential limit for the first spring 225, thereby reducing the possibility of misalignment between the first spring 225 and the engaging member 22, which is beneficial to improving the positioning stability of the first spring 225 and the engaging member 22; in addition, in other embodiments, the end of the sliding cavity 21 away from the driving member 23 can be a closed end, at this time, the two ends of the first spring 225 are respectively lower than the inner walls of the engaging member 22 and the mounting sleeve 2; or in other embodiments, the sliding cavity 21 can also be formed by the inner wall and integrally formed with the main body 1, thereby eliminating the setting of the mounting sleeve 2.
[0043] like Figure 4 As shown, the engaging member 22 in this embodiment includes a connecting seat 221 and an engaging block 222, wherein the connecting seat 221 is a U-shaped structure, the engaging block 222 is inserted into the U-shaped structure and fixedly connected to the connecting seat 221, and a avoidance hole 224 for the screw rod 11 to pass through is provided between the engaging block 222 and the connecting seat 221, and a convex tooth 223 cooperating with the screw rod 11 is provided at one end of the engaging block 222 facing the avoidance hole 224, and the driving member 23 is threadedly connected to the end of the connecting seat 221 to form a thread self-locking, thereby improving the connection stability and vibration resistance of the driving member 23 and the connecting seat 221, reducing the possibility of loosening of the driving member 23 and the connecting seat 221 due to vibration, and avoiding the driving member 23 from rotating at will, thereby making the engagement of the engaging member 22 with the screw rod 11 more stable and reliable.
[0044] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, in the present embodiment, a second spring 34 is provided in the main body 1, and the second spring 34 is restricted between the lower connecting plate 33 and the main body 1. When the upper clamping piece 12 and the lower clamping piece 13 keep clamping the bicycle cross beam, the second spring 34 is in a compressed state; when the engaging member 22 is disengaged from the screw rod 11, the engaging member 22 releases the axial limit of the screw rod 11, and the second spring 34 acts on the lower connecting plate 33 and controls the lower connecting plate 33 to move upward, and drives the upper connecting plate 31 to move under the action of the intermediate sliding shaft 32, thereby controlling the upper clamping piece 12 to move away from the lower clamping piece 13, thereby realizing the automatic separation of the upper clamping piece 12 and the lower clamping piece 13, without the need for manual operation by the user, providing convenience for the user and helping to improve the user experience; in addition, the intermediate sliding shaft 32 can guide the sliding member 3 to slide, making the sliding member 3 slide more smoothly, reducing the possibility of the sliding member 3 being stuck, and at the same time, it can also limit the upper connecting plate 31 from rotating with the screw rod 11, thereby ensuring that the upper clamping piece 12 and the lower clamping piece 13 can open and close normally.
[0045] In order to keep the screw rod 11 stable, the lower connecting plate 33 in this embodiment is installed with a stabilizing ring 331. The stabilizing ring 331 is sleeved on the outside of the screw rod 11 and adapted to the screw rod 11, so that the stabilizing ring 331 can slide relative to the screw rod 11 along the axis of the screw rod 11. The stabilizing ring 331 can limit the screw rod 11, thereby effectively reducing the shaking amplitude of the screw rod 11, making the rotation of the screw rod 11 more stable, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the overall structure of the clamping device.
[0046] In this embodiment, the end of the main body 1 away from the lower clamp 13 is provided with a connecting portion 15 for fixing to an external clamp. The connecting portion 15 can fix the clamping device to the external clamp, making the connection between the clamping device and the external clamp more convenient and quick, and also can make the clamping device remain stable after clamping the bicycle. In addition, the clamping height of the bicycle can be increased by the external clamp to facilitate the maintenance of the bicycle.
[0047] Embodiment 2:
[0048] like Figure 7 As shown, the main difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that: the side of the driving member 23 described in this embodiment away from the engaging member 22 passes through the main body 1 and is threadedly connected to the main body 1, the driving member 23 is rotatably connected to the engaging member 22, and the driving member 23 and the engaging member 22 are relatively fixed in the axial direction of the driving member 23. When the driving member 23 rotates, under the action of the main body 1, the driving member 23 gradually emerges or extends into the main body 1. Since the driving member 23 and the engaging member 22 are relatively fixed in the axial direction of the driving member 23, the driving member 23 drives the engaging member 22 to approach or move away from the screw rod 11, so that the engaging member 22 can engage with or disengage from the screw rod 11. At the same time, the driving member 23 is rotatably connected to the engaging member 22, so the engaging member 22 will not rotate with the driving member 23 during the rotation of the driving member 23.
[0049] The other structures of the second embodiment are the same as those of the first embodiment, and will not be described in detail again.
[0050] Embodiment three:

An end away from the column 42 is provided with an opening 431 for the clamping device to extend into the sleeve 43. The clamping assembly 44 includes a mounting seat 441, a driving shaft 444, a compression spring 445, an upper clamping block 442 and a lower clamping block 443. The driving shaft 444 is used to drive the upper clamping block 442 and the lower clamping block 443 to move closer to or away from each other. A notch is provided on the side wall of the sleeve 43. The upper clamping block 442 and the lower clamping block 443 are arranged at the position of the notch so that the upper clamping block 442 and the lower clamping block 443 can pass through the notch to clamp the clamping device.
[0052] During use of this embodiment, the unlocking switch 24 is first used to control the rotation of the driving member 23, thereby driving the engaging member 22 away from the screw rod 11 until the protruding teeth 223 of the engaging member 22 disengage from the screw rod 11. At this time, the engaging member 22 releases the restriction on the screw rod 11, and under the action of the second spring 34, the sliding member 3 slides axially along the main body 1 as a whole, and the sliding member 3 drives the screw rod 11 to move toward the end away from the main body 1. At the same time, the electric upper clamp 12 moves away from the lower clamp 13, thereby increasing the distance between the upper clamp 12 and the lower clamp 13, so as to facilitate placing the crossbeam of the bicycle between the upper clamp 12 and the lower clamp 13.
[0053] Afterwards, the engaging member 22 is kept disengaged from the screw rod 11, and the sliding member 3 is dragged to move the upper clamping piece 12 and the lower clamping piece 13 to approach each other, until both the upper clamping piece 12 and the lower clamping piece 13 are against the bicycle crossbar, and the driving member 23 is controlled to rotate by the unlocking switch 24, thereby driving the engaging member 22 to approach the screw rod 11, until the convex teeth 223 of the engaging member 22 are kept engaged with the screw rod 11, at which time the engaging member 22 forms an axial limit for the screw rod 11, and then the locking handle 14 is rotated to rotate the screw rod 11, and the upper clamping piece 12 is electrically driven to continue to approach the lower clamping piece 13, thereby increasing the clamping force of the upper clamping piece 12 and the lower clamping piece 13 on the bicycle crossbar, making the clamping of the bicycle more stable.
[0054] After the fixing clamp completes clamping the bicycle, the connecting portion 15 of the fixing clamp is extended into the sleeve 43 through the opening 431 of the sleeve 43. After the fixing clamp is adjusted to a suitable position, the driving shaft 444 is controlled to rotate by the locking handle 14, thereby driving the upper clamp block 442 and the lower clamp block 443 to approach each other, so that the upper clamp block 442 and the lower clamp block 443 clamp the fixing clamp, thereby limiting the rotation of the fixing clamp to facilitate maintenance personnel to perform maintenance; when it is necessary to adjust the bicycle body, the upper clamp block 442 and the lower clamp block 443 are controlled to separate by the locking handle, and the upper fixing clamp can rotate freely. After the adjustment is completed, the fixing clamp is clamped again by the upper clamp block 442 and the lower clamp block 443, and maintenance work can be carried out.
[0055] The above is only a specific implementation of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model includes but is not limited to the contents described in the drawings and the above specific implementation. Any modification that does not deviate from the functional and structural principles of the utility model will be included in the scope of the claims.
