Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of brake disc processing equipment, and in particular relates to an automatic clamping mechanism for a brake disc grinding process. Background Art
[0002] The brake disc, in simple terms, is a round plate that rotates when the car is moving. The brake caliper clamps the brake disc to generate braking force. When you step on the brake, it clamps the brake disc to slow down or stop the car.
[0003] At present, the production of brake discs is carried out through a melting and casting process, that is, the alloy material is melted and then cast into shape to produce brake discs. Brake discs produced by melting and casting inevitably have many burrs, which inevitably requires the brake discs to be polished. Currently, the brake discs are polished manually, placed on a grinder, clamped for polishing, and then removed manually, which makes the workers' labor intensity high and the safety poor. In addition, the workers' working environment is not conducive to their health due to the large amount of grinding dust. Utility Model Content

[0014] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and is by no means a limitation on the utility model and its application or use. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0015] Unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement, numerical expressions and numerical values of the parts and steps described in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the utility model. At the same time, it should be understood that, for ease of description, the sizes of the various parts shown in the accompanying drawings are not drawn according to the actual proportional relationship. The technology, methods and equipment known to ordinary technicians in the relevant field may not be discussed in detail, but in appropriate cases, the technology, methods and equipment should be regarded as a part of the authorization specification. In all examples shown and discussed here, any specific value should be interpreted as merely exemplary, rather than as a limitation. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following drawings, so once a certain item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent drawings.
[0016] For ease of description, spatially relative terms such as "above", "above", "on the upper surface of", "above", etc. may be used here to describe the spatial positional relationship between a device or feature and other devices or features as shown in the figure. It should be understood that spatially relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation described in the figure. For example, if the device in the accompanying drawings is inverted, the device described as "above other devices or structures" or "above other devices or structures" will be positioned as "below other devices or structures" or "below other devices or structures". Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below". The device can also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially relative descriptions used here are interpreted accordingly.
