Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of clamps, in particular to a clamp capable of fixing a plurality of metal products. Background Art
[0002] Metal product fixtures play a vital role in the field of industrial manufacturing and processing. With the advancement of science and technology and the development of the manufacturing industry, the demand and application scope of metal product fixtures are also expanding. They refer to tools used to fix and position metal materials during manufacturing and processing. Early metal product fixtures were relatively simple and were mainly used for manual operations, such as pliers and wrenches. With the progress of industrialization, mechanical processing and automated production have become increasingly popular, and the requirements for metal product fixtures have become higher and higher. The use of metal product fixtures can greatly improve production efficiency. Especially on automated production lines, suitable fixtures can greatly reduce manual intervention and achieve fast and accurate clamping.
[0003] For example, the Chinese authorized patent "A Metal Product Processing Fixture" with announcement number CN218575974U includes a fixed mounting plate, bolt fixing holes, a lifting hydraulic rod, a support top plate, a support base and a metal product workpiece clamping device. The metal product workpiece clamping device includes a driving motor, a rotating double-headed screw, a screw support plate, a support plate slide groove, a support plate sliding block, a movable support plate, a support vertical plate, a rotating motor, a rotating transmission shaft, a driven shaft support plate, a clamping plate driven shaft and a metal product movable clamping plate.
[0004] Although the above-mentioned existing technology solves the problem that the current metal product processing fixture is inconvenient to automatically adjust according to the size of the workpiece, and is inconvenient to firmly clamp the workpiece and adjust the angle, but with the continuous expansion of the scale of metal product production, a single fixed fixture is not convenient to cooperate with the processing equipment of the production line to complete the simultaneous processing of multiple metal products, which has a great impact on production efficiency. Moreover, the fixture has poor stability during the clamping process. Excessive clamping force can easily cause damage to the metal product, while too little clamping force will cause the metal product to fall during the processing process. Therefore, it does not meet the existing needs. In this regard, we propose a fixture that can fix multiple metal products. Utility Model Content

[0010] Preferably, a support spring is installed outside the pressure sensor, and two ends of the support spring are respectively fixed to the movable clamp and the clamping block.
[0011] Preferably, both sides of the upper end surface of the base are provided with empty grooves, which are connected to the driving cavity to provide a movable space for the toggle rod.
[0012] Preferably, mounting seats are fixedly provided at the four corners of the base.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0014] 1. The utility model can realize the synchronous clamping of multiple metal products. The conventional lower elbow is in an open state. The staff only needs to place the metal products one by one between the front and rear clamping blocks. After the placement is completed, the servo motor is turned on, and the driving shaft is driven to rotate at an angle under the action of the transmission mechanism, and the inclined transmission arm is driven to move in the horizontal direction. During the movement, the connecting arm forms traction on the elbow, so that the upper end of the elbow rotates with the first rotating shaft as the center of the circle, so that the clamping block is constantly close to the metal product, so as to fix the metal product. The device has a simple structure and is easy to operate. It can quickly fix multiple metal products at the same time through the driving shaft, and the flexibility is effectively improved, while the processing efficiency is improved.
[0015] 2. The utility model is provided with a self-locking mechanism. The output shaft of the servo motor drives the worm wheel to rotate. The tooth groove of the worm wheel is surrounded by the spiral protrusion of the worm. The contact surface between the worm and the worm wheel forms a spiral friction transmission surface. The rotation of the worm drives the worm wheel to rotate, thereby realizing the angle adjustment of the drive shaft. Due to the self-locking property between the worm and the worm wheel, it can ensure that the drive shaft remains limited at the adjusted angle, further improving the stability of the clamping block.
[0016] 3. The utility model provides a movable chuck at one end of the clamping block. During the movement of the elbow rod, the movable chuck contacts the metal product first. As the movable chuck moves toward the inside of the clamping block, it contacts the pressure sensor. The pressure sensor detects the pressure value in real time. When the set value is reached, it indicates that the clamping force of the movable chuck on the metal product is moderate. At the same time, the servo motor is stopped to be fixed at this position. On the one hand, damage to the metal product is avoided during the clamping process, and on the other hand, loosening of the metal product and the clamp is avoided during the processing.
