Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of internal expansion jigs, and particularly relates to an internal expansion clamping mechanism for bicycle assembly. Background Art
[0002] A bicycle, also known as a pedal bike or a bicycle, is usually a small two-wheeled vehicle on land. After a person rides on it, it uses the foot pedal as power and is an environmentally friendly means of transportation. Bicycles are traditional industries with a history of more than 100 years. Due to environmental protection and traffic problems, bicycles have once again become popular means of transportation and fitness tools for residents in various countries, especially in developed countries. The focus of the world bicycle industry is shifting from traditional means of transportation for commuting to sports, mountain, and leisure types. Bicycles are relatively common sports, fitness, leisure, and entertainment products. During the assembly process of bicycles, it is often necessary to use an internal expansion clamping mechanism to clamp bicycle components to facilitate bicycle assembly.
[0003] The patent with the publication number CN212919045U discloses an internal expansion jig for thin-walled flexible parts, including an external fixed clamping device and an internal expansion clamping device. The internal expansion clamping device includes an internal bottom plate, a plurality of internal guide rails, and a plurality of internal clamping jaws. The plurality of internal guide rails are fixedly arranged on the internal bottom plate, and each internal guide rail is provided with one of the internal clamping jaws; the plurality of internal clamping jaws jointly clamp the inner surface of the circumference of the thin-walled flexible part; the external clamping device includes a base and a plurality of external clamping jaws fixed on the base; the internal bottom plate is arranged in the middle area surrounded by the plurality of external clamping jaws. The external jig for thin-walled flexible parts designed by adopting this scheme can clamp thin-walled flexible parts well.
[0004] However, when the above-mentioned internal expansion jig for thin-walled flexible parts is actually used, there are still many disadvantages. For example, when assembling a bicycle tire, since the clamping devices of this jig are all rigid components, it is easy to damage the bicycle tire during clamping, and it is not convenient to clamp arc-shaped workpieces, resulting in poor practicability.

The threaded telescopic tube 3 is evenly distributed in a ring shape about the central axis of the inflation tube 2. The end of the inflation tube 2 is threadedly connected with a sealing plug 8. The sealing plug 8 can be rotated to open the inflation tube 2. Through the inflation tube 2, in cooperation with the threaded telescopic tube 3 and the inner cavity of the hollow frame 4, the main telescopic airbag 6 and the auxiliary telescopic airbag 5 can be inflated, so that the main telescopic airbag 6 and the auxiliary telescopic airbag 5 are stretched. The stretching of the auxiliary telescopic airbag 5 can open the inner wall of the tire outer skin.

The stretching of the auxiliary telescopic airbag 5 can open the inner walls of the tire skin on both sides. The tire liner can be pushed into the outer skin by stretching the main telescopic airbag 6, which is convenient for assembling the bicycle tire. The setting of the soft rubber pad 7 can prevent wear between the liner and the hollow frame 4. At the same time, the main telescopic airbag 6 and the auxiliary telescopic airbag 5 are used to expand and clamp the tire components, which can prevent damage to the outer side of the tire components, thereby improving the practicality of the device.
