Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mechanical processing, in particular to a double camshaft cover clamp. Background Art
[0002] During the processing of the dual camshaft cover, the dual camshaft cover needs to be positioned. As the number of product types increases, more and more fixtures are needed for the dual camshaft cover. Since the position relationship between the fixture and other tools needs to be readjusted every time the production line changes products, switching between products will cause long downtime and affect the machine tool operating rate.
[0003] The applicant previously applied for a fixture that uses a structure of a daughter board, a mother board, and a follower. When switching products, only the daughter board needs to be replaced to meet the production adjustment of the new product fixture, thereby improving the efficiency of the machine tool. However, the pin hole positioning + manual screw locking method is often used in this fixture. During the switching process, personnel need to enter the production line and the inside of the machine tool, which is inefficient and poses a safety risk. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the present application proposes a dual camshaft cover clamp, which adopts a hydraulic locking method to avoid the problems caused by personnel tightening screws.
[0005] A dual camshaft cover clamp comprises a sub-plate clamp, an accompanying clamp and a mother plate, the mother plate is provided with a first positioning column, the accompanying clamp is provided with a first positioning groove matching the first positioning column, a second positioning column is provided on the upper part of the accompanying clamp, the sub-plate clamp is sleeved on the second positioning column, a center pull rod is provided inside the second positioning column, a locking steel ball is provided on the upper part of the center pull rod, a hydraulic pump controls the compression and release of the locking steel ball, and a groove matching the locking steel ball is provided on the inner periphery of the sub-plate clamp.
[0006] Furthermore, the side wall of the second positioning column is in a frustum shape.
[0007] Furthermore, a sub-board positioning ring is provided on the lower surface of the sub-board fixture.
[0008] Furthermore, the lower surface of the sub-board clamp, the positioning ring and the accompanying clamp form an airtight space.
[0009] Furthermore, the pallet clamp is provided with an airtight detection passage.
[0010] The technical solution of the utility model has the following technical effects:
[0011] The locking steel ball is controlled by the hydraulic pump. When the center pull rod rises, the locking block is pushed to move in the through hole to compress the spring. When the spring squeezes the locking steel ball, the locking steel ball extends and enters the groove, thereby accurately positioning and fixing the sub-board fixture. When the center pull rod descends, the locking block is released to release the spring. When there is an external force, the locking steel ball can be retracted into the through hole, so that the sub-board fixture can be removed smoothly. The locking steel ball can be controlled by the hydraulic pump to achieve accurate positioning and fixation of the sub-board fixture. Therefore, when replacing the sub-board fixture, there is no need to manually adjust the locking and fixing. On the one hand, it avoids safety risks, and on the other hand, it improves production efficiency. In conjunction with the manipulator, fully automated fixture replacement can be achieved.
[0012] The side wall of the second positioning column is in the shape of a truncated cone. The sub-board fixture only needs to be adjusted to an approximate position to achieve the initial positioning of the sub-board positioning ring and the second positioning column during the downward movement of the sub-board fixture, which is more convenient for the operation of the robot and facilitates the automated replacement of the fixture.

[0019] A dual camshaft cover clamp comprises a sub-plate clamp 1, a traveling clamp 2 and a mother plate 3. The mother plate 3 comprises a platform surface 33, a recessed portion 32 is provided in the middle of the platform surface 33, a first positioning column 31 is provided on the recessed portion 32, the traveling clamp 2 is provided with a first positioning groove 21 matching the first positioning column 31, when the first positioning groove 21 is inserted into the first positioning column 31, the lower surface 24 of the side of the traveling clamp 2 overlaps the platform surface 33, the size of the first positioning groove 21 is slightly larger than the first positioning column 31, when the traveling clamp overlaps the mother plate, the position of the traveling clamp 2 can be fine-tuned.
[0020] A second positioning column 22 is provided on the upper part of the traveling clamp, and the side wall of the second positioning column 22 is truncated cone-shaped. A sub-board positioning ring 12 is provided on the lower surface of the sub-board clamp 1. The sub-board clamp 1 is adjusted to the upper part of the traveling clamp 2, and the sub-board clamp 1 is slowly lowered. When the sub-board positioning ring 12 contacts the second positioning column 22, the positioning ring slides along the truncated cone-shaped side wall of the second positioning column, thereby achieving preliminary positioning of the sub-board clamp, and the sub-board clamp 1 is sleeved on the second positioning column 22.
[0021] A through hole 221 is provided on the side of the second positioning column 22, and a locking steel ball 24 is provided in the through hole 221.
