Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a clamp, in particular to a hinge rebound time testing device. Background Art
[0002] Hinges are widely used. As the connecting parts between the door body and the cabinet body, the hinge has the characteristic of rotating the door body around a fixed axis to open or close the door body. However, the hinge has mechanical inertia when rotating around the axis, and the door body and the cabinet body will produce noise due to collision, so hydraulic hinges are used to reduce the rotation inertia of the hinge. Hydraulic hinges, also known as damping hinges or buffer hinges, refer to a kind of muffler buffer hinge that uses high-density oil to flow in a directional manner in a closed container to achieve an ideal buffering effect. Hydraulic hinges can reduce impact force and reduce damage to the cabinet door when closing the door forcefully.
[0003] At present, the damping hinges on the cabinet doors also have requirements for the rebound time when closing the door. When testing the rebound time of the hydraulic hinge, it is necessary to fix the hinge body, push the cup head to flip, and test the time required for the cup head to open and close. Since the fixture only clamps the main body of the hinge, and the heavier cup head is suspended in the air, if the clamping force on the hinge is not enough, the hinge is easy to loosen, affecting the accuracy of the rebound time test.

A plurality of limit blocks 13 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the positioning groove 12. The space between the limit blocks 13 forms the positioning groove 12. In this embodiment, the limit blocks 13 are in the shape of convex blocks. The height of the convex blocks is not limited and is set according to the height of the workpiece 30; the positioning groove 1 2 is provided with a positioning block, which is used to dock with the groove 33 of the workpiece 30. The positioning block and the groove 33 have mutually matching shapes. With such a configuration, the workpiece 30 can be quickly positioned in the groove 33. The first elastic block 15 and the second elastic block 16 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the positioning block. In this embodiment, two limit blocks 13 are arranged on the same side of the positioning groove 12, and the first elastic block 15 or the second elastic block 16 is arranged in the space between the two limit blocks 13. The number of limit blocks 13 is not limited in this application. The gap between the first elastic block 15 and the second elastic block 16 is smaller than the transverse outer diameter of the part to be clamped of the workpiece 30. With such a configuration, the workpiece 30 can be smoothly placed in the positioning groove 12, and is simultaneously clamped by the first elastic block 15 and the second elastic block 16 in the positioning groove 12, so that the positioning of the workpiece 30 (or the hinge 3) is more reliable. Compared with a complex manipulator or bolt fixing device, the clamp 1 of this embodiment has a simple structure and is easy to operate.
