[0012] Explanation of numbers in the figure: 1 working platform, 2 pneumatic clamping device body, 3 limit seat, 4 fixed seat, 5 measuring scale, 6 slide slot, 7 foot switch, 8 piston, 9 push rod, 10 push plate, 11 air inlet pipe, 12 exhaust pipe, 13 fixed handle, 14 movable handle. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0013] Referring to the accompanying drawings, the pneumatic clamping device for mechanical crimping pliers of the present application comprises a working platform 1, a fixed seat 4, a pneumatic clamping device body 2 and a limit seat 3, wherein the fixed seat 4, the pneumatic clamping device body 2 and the limit seat 3 are fixed on the working platform 1, the fixed seat 4 and the pneumatic clamping device body 2 are located at both ends of the working platform 1, and the limit seat 3 is located between the fixed seat 4 and the pneumatic clamping device body 2.

[0014] The main body of the pneumatic clamping device body 2 is a cylinder structure, the piston 8 of the cylinder is connected to the push rod 9, the push rod 9 extends out of the cylinder body and is connected to a push plate 10, the push rod 9 is parallel to the working platform 1, and the push plate 10 is perpendicular to the working platform 1. The pneumatic clamping device body 2 controls the movement of the cylinder piston through the foot switch 7 and compressed air, connects the compressed air to the air inlet hole of the foot switch 7, and then connects the cylinder through the air inlet pipe 11 and the exhaust pipe 12, forming a compressed air conduction circuit between the cylinder and the foot switch 7.

[0015] During implementation, a measuring scale 5 is provided on the surface of the working platform 1, and a slide groove 6 is also provided on the surface of the working platform 1. The measuring direction of the measuring scale 5 and the axial direction of the slide groove 6 are respectively parallel to the movement direction of the push plate 10. The limit seat 3 is embedded in the slide groove, and the fixed position of the limit seat 3 relative to the slide groove can be adjusted by a tightening screw.

[0016] In practice, the fixing seat 4 has a longitudinal cavity matching the handle of the crimping pliers, and clamping blocks are provided on both side walls of the cavity, and the handle of one side of the crimping pliers is fixed in the longitudinal cavity of the fixing seat 4 through the clamping blocks on both sides.

[0017] When in use, one side handle of the crimping pliers is vertically fixed on the fixing seat 4 to form a fixed handle 13, and the other side handle seat of the crimping pliers is close to the pneumatic pressing device as a movable handle 14. When the foot switch 7 is stepped on, compressed air enters the cylinder through the air inlet pipe 11, and the piston 8 pushes the push plate 10 to press the movable handle 14 of the crimping pliers toward the fixed handle 13, and the jaws of the crimping pliers are closed to complete the crimping of the cable end terminals; when the foot switch 7 is released, the compressed air is discharged from the cylinder through the exhaust pipe 12, and the piston 8 drives the push plate 10 away from the movable handle 14 of the crimping pliers. The movable handle of the crimping pliers is reset and opened under the action of the spring, and the limit seat 3 is located at the stroke limit of the push plate, which is used to limit the movement stroke of the push plate.

[0018] Driven by the piston 8, the push plate 10 pushes the movable handle of the crimping pliers forward, so that the movable handle of the crimping pliers is combined with the fixed handle to implement crimping of the cable end terminal. When the push plate retreats driven by the piston, the movable handle of the crimping pliers is reset and opened under the action of the spring. The limit seat is located at the stroke limit of the push plate and is used to limit the movement stroke of the push plate.

[0019] Since the displacement distances of the movable handles of the hand-held mechanical crimping pliers for crimping terminal blocks of control cables of different specifications are different, the displacement distances of the movable handles of the hand-held mechanical crimping pliers corresponding to the crimping of terminal blocks of control cables of different specifications are marked on the measuring scale, and the fixed position of the limit seat 3 on the slide groove of the working platform 1 is adjusted so that the displacement distances of the movable handles of the hand-held mechanical crimping pliers corresponding to the crimping of terminal blocks of control cables of the same specifications are the same, so as to ensure that the clamping force exerted on the terminal blocks of control cables of the same specifications when crimping is constant.
