[0033] Reference Figures 1 to 6 According to the embodiment of the present application, the clamping mechanism is used to clamp the columnar semi-finished product a of the oil-conducting cotton to be cut, wherein the clamping mechanism includes a frame 100, a screw assembly, a driving member, a clamping assembly and a guide structure.

[0034] Specifically, the screw assembly includes a screw rod 210, two nuts 220, and two first support seats 230 spaced apart on the frame 100. One end of the screw rod 210 is rotatably connected to one of the first support seats 230, and the other end of the screw rod 210 is rotatably connected to the other first support seat 230. The screw rod 210 has a first thread segment 211 and a second thread segment 212. The first thread segment 211 and the second thread segment 212 have the same pitch, and the thread directions of the first thread segment 211 and the second thread segment 212 are opposite. The two nuts 220 correspond one to one. The first thread segment 211 and the second thread segment 212 are connected to the screw rod 210, so that when the screw rod 210 rotates, the two nuts 220 can move closer to or farther away from each other. The driving member is connected to one end of the screw rod 210 and is used to drive the screw rod 210 to rotate. The clamping assembly includes two clamping parts 300, and the two clamping parts 300 are connected to the tops of the two nuts 220 one by one. The guide structure is used to limit the rotation of the nut 220 or the clamping part 300 relative to the frame 100, so that the clamping part 300 can only move relative to the frame 100 along the axial direction of the screw rod 210.

[0035] When in use, the screw 210 is driven to rotate by the driving member to drive the two nuts 220 to move closer to or away from each other, thereby driving the two clamping parts 300 to move closer to or away from each other, and thus being able to clamp columnar semi-finished products a of different diameters. There is no need to design and replace clamping mechanisms of different sizes and specifications, which is beneficial to reducing processing costs and improving processing efficiency.

[0036] It should be noted that, in some of the embodiments, each first support seat 230 is provided with a bearing (not shown in the figure) that matches the screw rod 210, so that the screw rod 210 can rotate more smoothly relative to the first support seat 230.

[0037] Reference Figure 1 as well as Figures 3 to 5In some embodiments, the driving member is a rotating block 400, one end of the screw 210 passes through the corresponding first support seat 230 and is connected to the rotating block 400, and the side of the rotating block 400 facing away from the screw 210 is eccentrically connected to a gripping portion 410 for applying force. When in use, force is applied to the gripping portion 410 to manually drive the screw 210 to rotate.

[0038] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the driving member may also be a driving motor (not shown in the figure). When in use, the screw rod 210 is driven to rotate by the driving motor, which is not limited here.

[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 5 In some embodiments, the guide structure includes a slider 310 and a slide rail 110, the slide rail 110 is disposed on the frame 100, and the bottom of the two clamping parts 300 are provided with a slider 310 slidably connected to the slide rail 110, and the structure is simple and easy to implement. Of course, the slide rail 110 disposed on the frame 100 can also be replaced by the slider 310, and correspondingly, the bottom of the two clamping parts 300 are provided with a slide rail 110 slidably connected to the slider 310, which is not limited here.

[0040] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, connecting parts (not shown in the figure) are provided on opposite sides of the nut 220, and the guide structure includes two guide rods (not shown in the figure), and the two guide rods are respectively passed through the two connecting parts, one end of the guide rod is connected to one of the first support seats 230, and the other end of the guide rod is connected to the other first support seat 230, and the axis of the guide rod is parallel to the axis of the screw 210, which is not limited here.

[0041] Of course, the above-mentioned connecting portion can also be arranged at the bottom of the clamping portion 300. Correspondingly, the frame 100 is provided with a fixing portion (not shown in the figure) for connecting the end of the guide rod, which is not limited here.

[0042] Reference Figures 1 to 5 In some of the embodiments, an extension portion 320 extending vertically is provided on one side of any clamping portion 300 facing the other clamping portion 300. When in use, the columnar semi-finished product a is clamped by the extension portion 320, wherein the extension portion 320 extends vertically, which is beneficial to increase the effective clamping area of ​​the clamping assembly, thereby facilitating a more stable clamping of the columnar semi-finished product a.

[0043] Reference Figures 1 to 5In some embodiments, a supporting plate 500 for supporting the columnar semi-finished product a is provided on the frame 100, which helps to prevent the clamped columnar semi-finished product a from escaping from the clamping assembly, wherein at least two second support seats 510 are spaced apart at the bottom of the supporting plate 500 so that there is a gap between the bottom of the supporting plate 500 and the frame 100 that can avoid the screw 210.

[0044] Reference Figures 1 to 5 In some of the embodiments, the two extension portions 320 and the support plate 500 enclose a material channel b for feeding the columnar semi-finished product a. One end of the material channel b is flared, and the flared end of the material channel b can be used as the feeding end of the columnar semi-finished product a. The flared feeding end facilitates the feeding of the columnar semi-finished product a.

[0045] Reference Figures 1 to 5 In some other embodiments, both ends of the material channel b are flared, that is, both ends of the material channel b can be used as feeding ends of the columnar semi-finished product a. When assembling the clamping mechanism of the embodiment of the present application on site, there is no need to consider the feeding direction of the material channel b, which is more flexible and conducive to improving the efficiency of on-site assembly.

[0046] Reference Figures 1 to 3 In some of the embodiments, the clamping mechanism also includes a protective cover 600 disposed above the material channel b, the protective cover 600 is connected to the top of one of the clamping parts 300, and the side of the protective cover 600 facing away from the driving member is an open structure. The protective cover 600 is used to accommodate a cutter for cutting the above-mentioned incision. When the cutter is used to cut the above-mentioned incision on the columnar semi-finished product a, the protective cover 600 can protect the on-site operator to prevent the on-site operator from being accidentally injured by the cutter.

[0047] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some of the embodiments, the end of the material channel b extends to the outside of the protective cover 600, and along the axial direction of the material channel b (i.e., the length direction of the material channel b), a limiting portion 610 is provided on the outer wall of one side of the protective cover 600, extending to just above one end of the material channel b. The limiting portion 610 is used to limit the columnar semi-finished product a from detaching from the material channel b, which is beneficial to improving the stability and reliability of the clamping assembly during operation.

[0048] It should be noted that, in some of the embodiments, an unlockable locking structure 700 is provided on the frame 100 corresponding to the screw 210, and the locking structure 700 is used to limit the rotation of the screw 210. After the clamping assembly clamps the columnar semi-finished product a, the locking structure 700 can limit the rotation of the screw 210 so that the clamping assembly can maintain the state of clamping the columnar semi-finished product a, which is beneficial to improve the stability and reliability of the clamping assembly during operation, thereby preventing the columnar semi-finished product a from loosening, and further beneficial to ensuring the processing quality.

[0049] Reference Figure 1 as well as Figures 4 to 6 In some embodiments, the locking structure 700 includes an adjusting bolt 710 and a locking block 720 arranged on the frame 100, the locking block 720 is provided with a through hole 721 for passing the screw 210, one end of the screw 210 is passed through the through hole 721, the locking block 720 has a notch 722 that passes through the locking block 720 along the axial direction of the through hole 721 and is connected to the through hole 721, the entity parts of the locking block 720 located on both sides of the notch 722 have at least part of the hole wall of the through hole 721, the entity parts of the locking block 720 located on both sides of the notch 722 are provided with a threaded through hole (not shown in the figure) connected to the notch 722, the axes of the two threaded through holes are collinear, and the adjusting bolt 710 is threadedly connected to the two threaded through holes at the same time. When the adjusting bolt 710 is rotated forward, the solid parts of the locking block 720 located on both sides of the notch 722 can be driven to approach each other, thereby reducing the aperture of the through hole 721 to increase the friction between the hole wall of the through hole 721 and the screw rod 210, thereby limiting the rotation of the screw rod 210. When the adjusting bolt 710 is rotated backward, the solid parts of the locking block 720 located on both sides of the notch 722 can return to their original state, thereby releasing the restriction on the screw rod 210.

[0050] Reference Figure 1 as well as Figures 3 to 5 In some of the embodiments, the locking structure 700 further includes a handle 730 disposed at an exposed end of the adjusting bolt 710 and used for applying force, so as to facilitate an on-site operator to rotate the adjusting bolt 710 .
