The bottom side of the spindle has a mounting plate, and the outside of the mounting plate is surrounded by multiple mounting positions. At present, the tool can be detachably installed on the corresponding mounting position by bolt connection.

[0003] However, this disassembly and assembly method requires repeatedly screwing multiple bolts when disassembling and assembling the tool, which is time-consuming and laborious. In view of this, it is urgent to propose a tool installation device for a vertical turret to quickly complete the disassembly and assembly of the tool and improve the workpiece processing preparation efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model proposes a vertical turret self-locking device to solve the above problems.

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] The utility model provides a vertical turret self-locking device, comprising:

[0007] The power box body has a mounting plate at the bottom;

[0008] The mounting seat is provided with a plurality of mounting seats around the outer side of the mounting plate, and a sliding groove penetrating from top to bottom is provided on the outer side of each mounting seat, and a limit stopper is provided on the top of the sliding groove, and limit grooves are provided on both sides of the sliding groove, and a clamping groove is provided at the bottom of the two limit grooves close to each other, and a clamping column is slidably inserted in the clamping groove, and a spring is connected between the inner end of the clamping column and the inner wall of the clamping groove, and a first arc abutment surface is provided on the bottom side of the end of the two clamping columns close to each other;

[0009] A tool seat has a tool installed at the bottom. A sliding block adapted to the slide groove is arranged on the rear side of the tool seat. Limiting strips adapted to the limiting groove are arranged on both sides of the sliding block. The top sides of the two limiting strips are respectively provided with second arc abutment surfaces.

[0010] Furthermore, a control groove is provided on the bottom side of the card slot, and a shift block is provided on the bottom side of the card column and slides through the bottom of the control groove.

[0011] Furthermore, a locking groove is provided on the surface of the slide groove, a rotating rod is rotatably installed in the locking groove, a locking cam is provided on the rotating rod, and a locking groove is provided on the rear side of the sliding block.

[0012] Furthermore, one end of the rotating rod passes through the bottom of the mounting seat and is provided with a locking rod, one end of the locking rod is connected to the rotating rod, and the other end faces the raised side of the locking cam.

[0013] Furthermore, the bottom of the mounting seat is provided with limit posts on both sides of the rotating rod, and the locking rod can respectively abut against the two limit posts to allow the locking cam to rotate until its protruding side faces outside or inside the locking groove.

[0014] It can be seen from the above technical solution that the utility model provides a vertical turret self-locking device:

[0015] 1. When installing the tool seat, the slider can be pushed into the slide groove from bottom to top, and the two limit strips can be correspondingly slid into the limit grooves. When the second arc abutment surface abuts against the first arc abutment surface, under the action of thrust, the second arc abutment surface will slide in contact with the first arc abutment surface to push the two clamping columns into the clamping grooves respectively until the bottom ends of the two limit strips are located above the clamping columns. Under the action of the spring elastic force, the clamping columns rebound and abut against the bottom of the slider, so that the slider is clamped between the limit baffle and the two clamping columns, thereby realizing the rapid installation of the tool seat, which is conducive to saving the installation time of the tool seat and improving the efficiency of workpiece processing preparation;

However, the utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without violating the connotation of the utility model, so the utility model is not limited by the specific implementation disclosed below.

[0028] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be a central element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be a central element at the same time. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only implementation method.

[0029] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used herein in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0030] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a vertical turret self-locking device provided in this embodiment includes a power box 1, a mounting seat 2 and a tool seat 3.

[0031] See also Figure 1A mounting plate 11 is disposed at the bottom of the power housing 1. The structures of the power housing 1 and the mounting plate 11 can adopt the current conventional vertical turret structure, so no further details are given.

[0032] The mounting seat 2 is surrounded by a plurality of mounting plates 11, such as Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a slide groove 21 which passes through from top to bottom is provided on the outer side of each mounting seat 2, a limit baffle 26 is provided on the top of the slide groove 21, and limit grooves 22 are provided on both sides of the slide groove 21. A clamping groove 23 is provided on the bottom of the two limit grooves 22 close to each other, and a clamping column 24 is slidably inserted in the clamping groove 23. A spring 25 is connected between the inner end of the clamping column 24 and the inner wall of the clamping groove 23. The spring 25 can provide an elastic force to push the clamping column 24 out of the clamping groove 23, and a first arc abutment surface 241 is provided on the bottom side of one end of the two clamping columns 24 close to each other.

[0033] See also Figure 3-Figure 5 A tool 31 is installed at the bottom of the tool seat 3, and the tool seat 3 with different tools 31 can be replaced according to different processing needs. A slider 32 adapted to the slide groove 21 is provided on the rear side of the tool seat 3, and limiting strips 33 adapted to the limiting groove 22 are provided on both sides of the slider 32, so that the slider 32 can be slidably connected with the slide groove 21, and the two limiting strips 33 can be slidably connected in the two limiting grooves 22, and the top sides of the two limiting strips 33 are respectively provided with second arc abutment surfaces 331.

[0034] When installing the tool seat 3, the slide block 32 can be pushed into the slide groove 21 from bottom to top, and the two limit bars 33 can slide into the limit groove 22 accordingly. When the second arc abutment surface 331 abuts against the first arc abutment surface 241, under the action of thrust, the second arc abutment surface 331 will slide in contact with the first arc abutment surface 241 to push the two clamping columns 24 into the clamping groove 23 respectively until the bottom ends of the two limit bars 33 are located above the clamping columns 24. Under the elastic force of the spring 25, the clamping columns 24 rebound and abut against the bottom of the slide block 32, so that the slide block 32 is clamped between the limit baffle 26 and the two clamping columns 24, so as to realize the rapid installation of the tool seat 3, which is beneficial to saving the installation time of the tool seat 3 and improving the efficiency of workpiece processing preparation. When removing the tool seat 3, it is only necessary to push the two clamping columns 24 into the clamping groove 23 to make the tool seat 3 slide down and move out of the slide groove 21.

[0035] It should be noted that the longitudinal distance between the limit baffle 26 and the clamping column 24 is adapted to the longitudinal length of the slider 32 , so that the slider 32 is clamped between the limit baffle 26 and the clamping column 24 .

[0036] Preferably, a control groove 231 is provided on the bottom side of the card slot 23, and a shift block 242 is provided on the bottom side of the card column 24 to slide through the bottom of the control groove 231. The card column 24 can be pushed into the card slot 23 by sliding the shift block 242, so as to facilitate the removal of the tool seat 3.

[0037] like Figure 2-5 As shown, in one embodiment, a locking groove 27 is provided on the surface of the slide groove 21, and a rotating rod 28 is rotatably installed in the locking groove 27, and a locking cam 281 is provided on the rotating rod 28. The rotation of the rotating rod 28 can make the convex side of the locking cam 281 protrude out of the locking groove 27, and a locking groove 321 is provided on the rear side of the slider 32. When the slider 32 is located between the limiting baffle 26 and the clamping column 24 and is clamped, the locking groove 321 will be opposite to the locking cam 281. At this time, the rotating rod 28 is rotated to make the convex side of the locking cam 281 protrude out of the locking groove 27, and the convex side of the locking cam 281 can be stuck in the locking groove 321, so as to further limit the slider 32 longitudinally. At the same time, the locking cam 281 will provide a thrust to push the slider 32 outward, so that the limiting strip 33 can squeeze the limiting groove 22, so that the tool seat 3 can be more tightly installed on the mounting seat 2.

[0038] Furthermore, one end of the rotating rod 28 passes through the bottom of the mounting seat 2 and is provided with a locking rod 282 to facilitate the rotation of the rotating rod 28. One end of the locking rod 282 is connected to the rotating rod 28, and the other end faces the raised side of the locking cam 281, which is conducive to presenting the direction of the raised side of the locking cam 281 to the outside, thereby helping workers to position.

[0039] Preferably, the bottom of the mounting base 2 is provided with limit columns 29 on both sides of the rotating rod 28, and the locking rod 282 can respectively abut against the two limit columns 29 to make the locking cam 281 rotate until its protruding side faces outside the locking groove 27 or inside the locking groove 27. By limiting the rotation stroke of the locking rod 282, when it rotates to both ends of the stroke, the protruding side of the locking cam 281 can be respectively inserted into the abutting groove 321 or retracted into the locking groove 27, which is helpful to assist workers in controlling the rotation angle of the rotating rod 28.
