Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of key processing, and more specifically, it relates to an adjusting mechanism for a key processing fixture. Background Art

[0002] A horizontal key machine is a device specifically used for processing keys. It adopts a horizontal structural design and usually has a sturdy body and a precise processing system. Its working principle is to drive a tool by a motor to perform operations such as cutting and grinding on a key blank to replicate or produce a key that meets the requirements. The horizontal key machine focuses on stability and precision in design and can handle various types and complexities of keys, including common household keys, car keys, etc. It is equipped with adjustable fixtures to ensure that the key blank maintains a stable position during the processing. The operation interface is usually relatively simple and intuitive, facilitating operators to set parameters and control operations. Some high-end horizontal key machines also have automation functions, such as automatic feed and automatic measurement, further improving the processing efficiency and precision. Generally speaking, the horizontal key machine has become an indispensable and important tool in the key processing industry with its efficient, precise, and stable performance.

[0003] However, the integrated fixture in the existing technology for horizontal key machines can usually only hold and cannot perform position adjustment. When encountering a thick key, the cut will be non-perpendicular, resulting in inaccurate key cutting. At the same time, it is also difficult to achieve the processing of arcs.

[0004] Therefore, to solve the above technical problems, this application proposes an adjusting mechanism for a key processing fixture. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] Aiming at the deficiencies of the existing technology, the purpose of the utility model is to provide an adjusting mechanism for a key processing fixture.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solution: An adjusting mechanism for a key processing fixture includes an adjusting seat installed on one side of the fixture and a support plate A installed on the key machine. A support plate B is slidably connected to the surface of the support plate A, and the adjusting seat is hinged to the support plate B. Both the support plate A and the support plate B are equipped with locking components to loosen or lock the height adjustment and up-and-down floating adjustment of the adjusting seat.

[0007] Preferably, a guide rail is fixedly connected to the surface of the support plate A, and the slider on the guide rail is connected to the support plate B through an M screw. The relative sliding between the support plate A and the support plate B is realized through the guide rail and the slider.

[0008] Preferably, the locking assembly includes a wrench A mounted on the support plate A and a wrench B mounted on the support plate B. Locking is achieved by adjusting the wrenches, which is more convenient for the staff to operate.

[0009] Preferably, both the wrench A and the wrench B are fixed by check screws, which can effectively prevent the wrench A and the wrench B from loosening and slipping. When the object has a tendency to break away, the head or nut of the screw will directly block the movement of the object and limit its breaking-away travel.

[0010] Preferably, a handle is fixedly connected to the adjusting seat for controlling its height adjustment and up-and-down floating adjustment, which is more convenient for the staff to perform the adjustment operation.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. When the locking component on the support plate A controls locking and the locking component on the support plate B is loosened, the adjusting seat can rotate up and down around the connection point on the support plate B; thereby driving the up-and-down rotation of the fixture. When the locking component on the support plate B controls locking and the locking component on the support plate A is loosened, the adjusting seat can be pulled up and down to float. In this way, after adjusting and locking, it is convenient to realize arc machining, thus solving the problem in the background art that it is difficult to perform arc machining.

[0013] 2. When the locking component on the support plate B controls locking and the locking component on the support plate A is loosened, the adjusting seat can be pulled up and down to float. The adjusting seat drives the up-and-down movement of the support plate B, and the support plate B moves up and down along the support plate A, thereby driving the up-and-down floating of the fixture. In this way, after adjusting and locking, it can avoid the slot of the thick key being not straight during cutting, thus solving the problem in the background art that when encountering a thick key, the cut will be not perpendicular.

[0020] As Figures 1-4 shown, the present utility model provides an adjusting mechanism for a key processing fixture, including an adjusting base 2 installed on one side of the fixture 1, and a support plate A 3 installed on a key machine. A support plate B 4 is slidably connected to the surface of the support plate A 3. The adjusting base 2 is hinged to the support plate B 4. Locking components 5 are installed on both the support plate A 3 and the support plate B 4 to loosen or lock the height adjustment and up-and-down floating adjustment of the adjusting base 2.

[0021] During use, when the locking component 5 on the support plate A 3 controls locking and the locking component 5 on the support plate B 4 is loosened, the adjusting base 2 can rotate up and down around the connection point on the support plate B 4; thereby driving the up-and-down rotation of the fixture 1. When the locking component 5 on the support plate B 4 controls locking and the locking component 5 on the support plate A 3 is loosened, the adjusting base 2 can be pulled up and down to float. The adjusting base 2 drives the up-and-down movement of the support plate B 4, and the support plate B 4 moves up and down along the support plate A 3, thereby driving the up-and-down floating of the fixture 1. After the positions of the up-and-down rotation and the up-and-down movement are both adjusted, both locking components 5 are locked, and the state of the fixture 1 can be fixed (both the up-and-down rotation and the up-and-down floating are locked). The up-and-down rotation is convenient for realizing arc machining; the small up-and-down floating can avoid the slot of the thick key being not straight during cutting.

[0022] A guide rail 6 is fixedly connected to the surface of the support plate A 3. The slider on the guide rail 6 is connected to the support plate B 4 through an M2.5 screw 7. The adjusting base 2 is installed on the support plate B 4 through a D12 screw 8 and locked with a D12 nut 9. The adjusting base 2 can rotate along the outer wall of the D screw. The locking component 5 includes a wrench A 501 installed on the support plate A 3 and a wrench B 502 installed on the support plate B 4. A handle 10 is fixedly connected to the adjusting base 2 for controlling its height adjustment and up-and-down floating adjustment.

[0023] When wrench A501 controls locking and wrench B502 loosens, the adjusting seat 2 is controlled by the handle 10 to rotate up and down around the D12 screw 8; thereby driving the up and down rotation of the fixture 1. When wrench B502 controls locking and wrench A501 loosens, the adjusting seat 2 is controlled by the handle 10 to float up and down, thereby driving the up and down floating of the fixture 1. The adjusting seat 2 drives the slider on the guide rail 6 to move up and down along the guide rail 6 through the support plate B4. After the positions of the up and down rotation and the up and down movement are adjusted, both wrench A501 and wrench B502 are locked, and the state of the fixture 1 can be fixed.

[0024] Furthermore, both wrench A501 and wrench B502 are fixed by the check screw 11, which can effectively prevent wrench A501 and wrench B502 from loosening and slipping.

[0025] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it is not intended to limit the present invention in any form; any ordinary technician in the industry can smoothly implement the present invention according to the illustrations in the specification and the above description; however, any equivalent changes made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention by using the technical content disclosed above, such as minor modifications, decorations, and evolutions, are all equivalent embodiments of the present invention; at the same time, any equivalent changes, modifications, and evolutions made to the above embodiments based on the essence of the present invention still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
