[0044] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and in no way constitutes a limitation to the present invention and its application or use. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0045] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a torque detection device, including a bracket 11, a first connecting shaft 20, a first clamping part 30 and a second clamping part 40. The first connecting shaft 20 is rotatably connected to the bracket 11; the first clamping part 30 is rotatably connected to the bracket 11. The first connecting shaft 20 drives the first clamping part 30 to rotate. The inside of the first clamping part 30 has a flow-through air passage. The first clamping part 30 includes an air path structure 31, a second connecting shaft 32 and a clamping structure 33 connected in sequence. At least a part of the flow-through air passage is located in the air path structure 31. Gas flows in the flow-through air passage to drive the clamping structure 33 to clamp or release the product; the second clamping part 40 is used to clamp one end of the product away from the first clamping part 30.
[0046] With this solution, the first connecting shaft 20 rotates to drive the first clamping part 30 to rotate. The flow air passage inside the first clamping part 30 is used to transmit gas to drive the clamping structure 33 to clamp the product. The two shafts of the first connecting shaft 20 and the second connecting shaft 32 are provided to eliminate the cumulative error during the rotation process and avoid inaccurate torque measurement caused by the error. The second clamping part 40 clamps the lower half of the product, and the first clamping part 30 clamps the upper half of the product and rotates to measure the torque during the torsion process. The flow air passage is arranged inside the first clamping part, and there is no need to set an external air pipe, which avoids the influence of the inertia force of the external air pipe on the torque accuracy detected by the torque detection device.
[0047] As Figure 3 shown, the flow air passage includes a first air passage 311, a second air passage 321 and a third air passage 331 that are connected in sequence. The first air passage 311 is arranged inside the air path structure 31, the second air passage 321 is arranged inside the second connecting shaft 32, and the third air passage 331 is arranged inside the clamping structure 33.
[0048] It can be understood that the first air passage 311, the second air passage 321 and the third air passage 331 are connected in sequence to transmit gas, and the clamping structure 33 is driven by the gas to clamp the upper half of the product. The first air passage 311 is arranged inside the air path structure 31, the second air passage 321 is arranged inside the second connecting shaft 32, and the third air passage 331 is arranged inside the clamping structure 33, thus avoiding the setting of an external air pipe and preventing the inertia force generated by the external air pipe during the rotation process from affecting the torque detection accuracy.
[0049] In a specific embodiment of the present utility model, the air path structure 31 is a pneumatic slip ring.
[0050] In a specific embodiment of the present utility model, the pneumatic slip ring is reprocessed, two holes are opened at the bottom to penetrate the original air passage in the pneumatic slip ring, and then the original air passage interface is blocked with a plug to change the side air outlet to the bottom air outlet to obtain the first air passage 311. The second air passage 321 is opened inside the second connecting shaft 32, and the first air passage 311 is communicated with the second air passage 321. The side air path of the air claw 332 is changed to the bottom and is hermetically connected to the second connecting shaft 32. With such a setting, all the externally hung air pipes on the side can be cancelled and changed to an internal air passage, effectively avoiding the influence of the externally hung air pipe on the torque test.

The first clamping blocks 333 are connected to the air claw 332, and the third air passage 331 is arranged inside the air claw 332. The gas in the third air passage 331 drives the plurality of first clamping blocks 333 to clamp or loosen the product.
[0052] Gas is transmitted through the third air passage 331 inside the air gripper 332, and the gas drives multiple first clamping blocks 333 to clamp the product, so as to rotate the upper half of the product to obtain the torque curve during the rotation of the product.

[0054] With such an arrangement, the first bearing does not need to ensure coaxiality. Therefore, setting one first bearing can ensure the rotation of the first connecting shaft 20 while saving costs. The second bearing needs to ensure the coaxiality of the air path structure 31 and the clamping structure 33. Therefore, two second bearings are set to ensure coaxiality. Setting two shafts, namely the first connecting shaft 20 and the second connecting shaft 32, can avoid the accumulation of errors during the rotation process and prevent the accumulated errors from affecting the accuracy of torque detection.

[0061] The base 12 is used to support the feeding structure 70. The feeding structure 70 drives the bracket 11 to move up and down, thereby driving the first clamping part 30 to move up and down, so that the first clamping part 30 can move downward to clamp the upper half of the product and move upward to release the upper half of the product.
[0062] In a specific embodiment of the present utility model, the feeding structure 70 can be driven by pneumatic, electric and other means.
[0063] As Figure 1 shown, the torque detection device further includes a base 12. The second clamping part 40 includes a clamping seat 41 and a plurality of second clamping blocks 42. The clamping seat 41 is fixedly connected to the base 12, and the clamping seat 41 drives the plurality of second clamping blocks 42 to clamp the lower half of the product.

[0065] In a specific embodiment of the present utility model, the clamping seat 41 can drive the second clamping blocks 42 to clamp the lower half of the product in a pneumatic or electric manner.

The buffer structure is arranged between the second clamping blocks 42 and the product, and the buffer structure is used to protect the product and prevent the product from slipping.
[0067] The buffer structure is arranged on the surface of the second clamping blocks 42. When the second clamping part 40 clamps the lower half of the product, the buffer structure plays a buffering role to avoid damage to the product caused by clamping. At the same time, it avoids the phenomenon of the product slipping during the twisting process.
[0068] As Figure 1 shown, the torque detection device further includes a human-machine interaction panel 80 and a base 12. The human-machine interaction panel 80 is connected to the base 12, and the human-machine interaction panel 80 is electrically connected to the first clamping part 30 and the second clamping part 40.
