Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clamping mechanism technology, specifically a clamping mechanism for steel ball processing. Background Art

[0002] When processing steel balls, they need to be fixed in place before deep processing such as drilling or grinding. Using a clamping mechanism to hold the steel balls provides greater safety during operation and avoids the need for manual handling, thus preventing potential hazards from manual operation.

[0003] Existing clamping mechanisms require fixing to the machine tool during steel ball processing. After fixing, a series of processing steps such as grinding and polishing are performed. When dealing with steel balls of different inner diameters, the clamping mechanism needs to be adjusted to follow the inner diameter of the steel ball. The adjustment process is generally done by using bolts and nuts. During the entire adjustment process, the bolts need to be calibrated and rotated to adjust the inner diameter of the clamping mechanism. The process is cumbersome and the adjustment method is inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides an embodiment of a clamping mechanism for processing steel balls. The clamping mechanism includes a front clamping block 1, an inner groove 5, a connecting structure 8, and a rear clamping block 2. The inner groove 5 is formed on the end face of the front clamping block 1, and a groove is provided inside the inner side of the inner groove 5. The connecting structure 8 is provided on one side of the front clamping block 1, and the rear clamping block 2 is provided at the end of the connecting structure 8 away from the front clamping block 1. The rear clamping block 2 is connected to the front clamping block 1 through the connecting structure 8. Furthermore, the distance between the front clamping block 1 and the rear clamping block 2 is adjusted by using the connecting structure 8. In this way, the distance between the front clamping block 1 and the rear clamping block 2 can be adjusted according to the inner diameter of the steel ball, which is convenient for adjusting and clamping according to the inner diameter of the steel ball.

[0029] Both the front clamping block 1 and the rear clamping block 2 have circular grooves 6 at their top ends. The circular grooves 6 at the top ends of the front clamping block 1 and the rear clamping block 2 form a semi-circular groove. The circular grooves 6 at the top ends of the front clamping block 1 and the rear clamping block 2 are used to fix and clamp the steel ball. The distance between the front clamping block 1 and the rear clamping block 2 is adjusted by using the connecting structure 8. At this time, the steel ball to be clamped can be placed inside the circular groove 6, and then the distance between the front clamping block 1 and the rear clamping block 2 can be adjusted.

[0030] A shaped groove 7 is provided on one side wall of the rear clamping block 2. The side wall of the shaped groove 7 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting structure 8. A connecting rod 3 is fixedly provided on the outer surface of both the front clamping block 1 and the rear clamping block 2. Several sets of threaded holes 4 are opened at equal intervals on the surface of the connecting rod 3. When in use, the front clamping block 1 or the rear clamping block 2 is first fixed on the operating machine tool using the connecting rod 3 and the threaded holes 4. After being fixed on the operating machine tool, subsequent operations are carried out.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The connecting structure 8 includes a fixing block 83 fixed to the surface of the irregular groove 7, a rotating spring 84 fixed to one end of the fixing block 83, a connecting block 82 fixed to the end face of the rotating spring 84, a connecting rod 81 fixed to the top of the connecting block 82, and a connecting ridge 85 wrapped around the outer wall of the connecting rod 81. The inner diameters of the connecting rod 81 and the connecting ridge 85 match the inner diameter of the inner groove 5. The outer side of the connecting ridge 85 rotates and fits against the inner wall of the inner groove 5. A locking block 86 is fixed to the end face of the connecting ridge 85. The locking block 86 engages with the inside of the groove at one end of the inner side of the inner groove 5. The groove is used to limit the torque brought by the rotating spring 84. To further explain, the distance between the front clamping block 1 and the rear clamping block 2 is adjusted by the connecting structure 8. During the adjustment process, since the fixed block 83 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the irregular groove 7, the rotating spring 84 on one side of the fixed block 83 drives the connecting rod 81 to rotate inside the inner groove 5. When the rotation approaches the groove provided inside the inner groove 5, the torque of the rotating spring 84 drives the locking block 86 to engage with the groove provided inside the inner groove 5, thereby limiting the position of the connecting structure 8 inside the inner groove 5.

[0032] Working principle: First, the front clamping block 1 or the rear clamping block 2 is fixed to the machine tool using the connecting rod 3 and the threaded hole 4. After being fixed to the machine tool, subsequent operations are performed. The distance between the front clamping block 1 and the rear clamping block 2 is adjusted using the connecting structure 8. During the adjustment process, because the fixing block 83 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the irregular groove 7, the rotation spring 84 on one side of the fixing block 83 drives the connecting rod 81 as a whole to rotate inside the inner groove 5. When the rotation approaches a groove body set inside the inner groove 5, the torque of the rotation spring 84 drives the clamping block 86 to engage with the inner groove body. The groove body inside the groove 5 engages, thereby limiting the position of the connecting structure 8 inside the groove 5. The connecting structure 8 is used to adjust the distance between the front clamping block 1 and the rear clamping block 2. This allows the distance between the front clamping block 1 and the rear clamping block 2 to be adjusted according to the inner diameter of the steel ball. This facilitates adjustment based on the inner diameter of the steel ball. By adjusting the distance between the front clamping block 1 and the rear clamping block 2 using the connecting structure 8, the steel ball to be clamped can be placed inside the circular groove 6. Then, the distance between the front clamping block 1 and the rear clamping block 2 can be adjusted to clamp the steel ball inside the circular groove 6.

[0033] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
