For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0030] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the adaptive clamp includes a support 10, a screw mechanism 20 arranged on the support 10, a left nut 31 and a right nut 32 arranged on the screw mechanism 20, a left chuck assembly 41 arranged on the left nut 31, and a right chuck assembly 42 arranged on the right nut 32, a left transition assembly 51 is arranged between the left chuck assembly 41 and the left nut 31, and a right transition assembly 52 is arranged between the right chuck assembly 42 and the right nut 32.
[0031] Continue to see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The support 10 is provided with a guide groove 61 , the bottom of the left nut 31 is provided with a left guide block 62 embedded in the guide groove 61 , and the bottom of the right nut 32 is provided with a right guide block 63 embedded in the guide groove 61 .
[0032] Continue to see Figure 2 The screw mechanism 20 includes a bearing 21 arranged on the support 10, a screw 22 arranged on the bearing 21, and a handle 23 arranged at one end of the screw 22. The left nut 31 and the right nut 32 are threadedly connected to the screw 22. When the screw 22 rotates with the handle 23, the left nut 31 and the right nut 32 approach or move away from each other.
[0033] The left clamping assembly 41 and the right clamping assembly 42 are both multi-stage semicircular movable blocks, and the plane side of the multi-stage semicircular movable blocks is the clamping side. The left transfer assembly 51 and the right transfer assembly 52 are also multiple groups of semicircular movable blocks.
[0034] The multi-stage semicircular movable block is formed by nesting at least two stages of semicircular movable blocks graded according to a nesting relationship, wherein the movable blocks with smaller radius are gradually nested into the movable blocks with larger radius and can slide relative to them along the arc surface.
[0035] Figure 1 The left clamp assembly 41 and the right clamp assembly 42 are four-stage semicircular movable blocks of the same structure. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The third level semicircular movable block is a three-level semicircular movable block, and the fourth level semicircular movable block can be derived from the three-level semicircular movable block. This embodiment takes the three-level semicircular movable block as an example, which includes a first movable block 411 with the largest radius, two second movable blocks 412 embedded in the first movable block 411, and four third movable blocks 413 embedded in the second movable blocks 412. The movable blocks of the same level have the same radius.
[0036] Take a group of adjacent movable blocks nested as an example, such as a first movable block 411 and a second movable block 412, wherein the radius of the first movable block 411 is larger, and the radius of the second movable block 412 is smaller.
[0037] Continue to see Figure 3 The arc surface side of the movable block with a smaller radius, that is, the second movable block 412, is provided with a non-through slide groove 414 extending along the arc surface, and the embedded surface of the movable block with a larger radius, that is, the first movable block 411 connected thereto, is provided with a slider 415 interlocking with the slide groove 414. The movement of the movable block with a smaller radius 412 relative to the movable block with a larger radius 411 is limited by the movement area of the slider 415 in the slide groove 414. In this embodiment, the slider 415 can slide within the slide groove 414 by ±30°. The arc of the direct contact surface between the movable block with a smaller radius 412 and the movable block with a larger radius 413 is larger than the arc of the slide groove 414.
[0038] like Figure 4 and 5 As shown, the upper edge of the slide groove 414 along the axial direction is provided with an upper groove 4141, and the lower edge is provided with a lower groove 4142; the upper edge of the slider 415 along the axial direction is provided with an upper protrusion 4151 that cooperates with the upper groove 4141, and the lower edge is provided with a lower protrusion 4152 that cooperates with the lower groove 4142, and the slide groove 414 and the slider 415 are interlocked through the cooperation of the groove and the protrusion.
[0039] Continue to see Figure 4, all movable blocks are respectively divided into upper and lower parts, so that the assembly of the grooves and protrusions is simpler. Taking the third movable block 413 as an example, the movable block includes an upper movable block 4131, a lower movable block 4132 corresponding to the upper movable block 4131, and a bolt 4133 that fixes the upper movable block 4131 and the lower movable block 4132. The upper groove is located in the upper movable block with a smaller radius, the lower groove is located in the lower movable block with a smaller radius, the upper protrusion is located in the upper movable block with a larger radius, and the lower protrusion is located in the lower movable block with a larger radius. In this way, the upper movable blocks are first nested, and the lower movable blocks are first nested, and then the upper and lower parts are assembled and fixed with bolts.
[0040] In this embodiment, the left transfer assembly 51 and the right transfer assembly 52 are two-stage semicircular movable blocks of the same structure, such as Figure 6 and 7 As shown, the structure of the left transfer assembly 51 is described as an example, which includes a large movable block 511 and a small movable block 512 nested in the large movable block 511. The splicing method between the two movable blocks can be referred to above and will not be repeated. The difference is that the small movable block 512 and the upper movable block and the lower movable block in the large movable block 511 are fixed by a pin 513, and the pin 513 is partially located in the upper movable block and partially located in the lower movable block. The first movable block 411 is fixed to the large movable block 511. The small movable block 512 is fixedly connected to the left nut 31 on the screw rod through a through hole 514 extending from the bottom.
[0041] Continue to see Figure 1 When the adaptive clamp is in use, the handle 23 is manually rotated, and the movement is transmitted to the left chuck assembly 41 and the right chuck assembly 42 through the screw mechanism 20. The left chuck assembly 41 and the right chuck assembly 42 begin to move inward or outward synchronously. When the movable blocks thereon encounter the workpiece 01, the semicircular movable blocks of various levels from small to large will adaptively rotate to fit the shape of the workpiece 01, thereby achieving the purpose of fitting and clamping the workpiece 01.
[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the utility model, rather than to limit them. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, a person skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the above embodiments can still be modified, or some or all of the technical features can be replaced by equivalents, and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the utility model.
