For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0020] Please refer to Figure 1-2 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a pneumatic clamping and rectifying device for powder metallurgy inserts, including a base plate 1, a pneumatic component, and a clamping and rectifying component. Among them, mounting holes for fixing on the workbench are provided at the four corners of the base plate 1. The pneumatic component is installed at the upper end of the base plate 1. The pneumatic component has a cylinder 2, a pneumatic baffle 3, a pneumatic push block 4, and a fixing plate 5. The cylinder 2 is fixed at the middle position of the end face of the base plate 1, and pneumatic baffles 3 are arranged vertically on both sides of the cylinder 2; the fixing plate 5 can be fixed to the upper end of the pneumatic baffle 3 by screws, the fixing plate 5 is vertically arranged relative to the pneumatic baffle 3, and a through hole for the pneumatic push block 4 to pass through is provided in the middle of the fixing plate 5.
[0021] In this embodiment, the clamping and rectifying component includes a limiting plate 6, a clamping and rectifying insert 7, and a powder metallurgy insert 8. Among them, the limiting plate 6 is located above the fixing plate 5 and its four corners can be connected to the fixing plate 5 by screws. An insert groove is provided in the middle of the limiting plate 6.
[0022] In this embodiment, the clamping and rectifying insert 7 can be installed in the insert groove. An insert groove is provided in the middle of the side of the clamping and rectifying insert 7, and the powder metallurgy insert 8 can be installed on the clamping and rectifying insert 7 and limited in the insert groove.
[0023] In this embodiment, the pneumatic push block 4 is sleeved on the front end of the piston rod of the cylinder 2. The cross section of the pneumatic push block 4 is in an inverted T shape and a push tip is provided at its front end.
[0024] In this embodiment, the push tip can pass through the fixing plate 5 and the limiting plate 6 and extend into the insert groove to cooperate with the clamping and rectifying insert 7. The pneumatic push block 4 can move upward when the cylinder 2 is started to push the clamping and rectifying insert 7 and expand the clamping and rectifying insert 7 outward to achieve the effect of increasing the center distance dimension of the insert.
[0025] In this embodiment, the clamping and rectifying insert 7 and the limiting plate 6 are made of DC53 steel material with high hardness and good wear resistance, and the pneumatic baffle 3 is made of Cr12 die steel.
[0026] Installation and usage instructions:
[0027] During installation: Fix the base plate 1 together with the cylinder 2 and the pneumatic baffle 3 using screws. Then, slip the fixing plate 5 over the pneumatic push block 4 and fix it to the pneumatic baffle 3 with screws. Next, place the clamping insert 7 inside the limit plate 6 and fix it to the fixing plate 5. Then, place the powder metallurgy insert 8 on the clamping insert 7 to complete the installation.
[0028] During use, start the air switch controlling the cylinder 2. The piston of the cylinder 2 drives the pneumatic push block 4 to push the clamping insert 7, thereby expanding the insert outward to achieve the effect of increasing the center distance dimension of the insert. Close the air switch, and the piston of the cylinder 2 resets. Remove the insert and place it in the material box.
[0029] Due to the large sintering deformation of the insert, after sizing with a complete sizing die, there will be some products with undersized dimensions after sizing. At this time, we need to adjust the position of the clamping insert 7 according to the production sizing deformation to adjust the clamping effect. There is no need to replace other parts, making the debugging and line change very fast and flexible, with low fixture manufacturing cost and high production efficiency.
[0030] It should be noted that: During the debugging and production use of the above fixture, it is necessary to confirm the center distance dimension of the insert after clamping.
