[0033] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention 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. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0034] Referring to Figure 1 - Figure 3 As shown in the figure, an embodiment provided by the present invention is a clamping mechanism for the processing of an automotive filter housing, including a table plate 1 for connecting various components. A housing 2 is provided on the upper part of the table plate 1 for cooperating with the installation of the control component 5. Three clamping members 3 are provided on the upper part of the housing 2 for clamping and fixing the filter housing to facilitate its processing. A sliding opening 21 is provided at the top of the housing 2 for cooperating with the movement of the clamping member 3, and a slider 32 is slidably connected thereto. A control component 5 is provided in the middle of the housing 2 for controlling the movement of multiple clamping members 3. A first motor 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the table plate 1 for driving the entire housing 2, the clamping members 3, and the control component 5 to rotate together to facilitate the processing of the filter housing. The output end of the first motor 4 is fixedly connected to a connecting shaft 41 for connecting with the housing 2. The connecting shaft 41 passes through the table plate 1 and is rotatably connected thereto. The top of the connecting shaft 41 is fixedly connected to the housing 2.

[0035] As Figure 4 shown, the control component 5 includes a second motor 51 for providing power to the component, which can rotate forward and backward. The second motor 51 is fixedly connected to the housing 2. The output end of the second motor 51 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 52 for driving a first bevel gear 53 to rotate. The rotating shaft 52 passes through the housing 2 and is rotatably connected thereto. A first bevel gear 53 is fixedly connected to the side of the rotating shaft 52 away from the second motor 51 for driving a second bevel gear 54 to rotate. The control component 5 further includes a second bevel gear 54 for driving a control plate 56 to rotate. The second bevel gear 54 is meshed with the first bevel gear 53. A support rod 55 is passed through and rotatably connected to the middle of the second bevel gear 54 for cooperating with the connection of the second bevel gear 54. A control plate 56 is fixedly connected to the top of the second bevel gear 54 for controlling the movement of multiple clamping members 3. A control groove 561 is provided at the top of the control plate 56, which is in a planar spiral shape for controlling the opening and closing of multiple clamping members 3 to clamp and fix filter housings of different sizes.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 5, the clamping member 3 includes a clamping block 31, which is L-shaped. A slider 32 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the clamping block 31. The positions of the sliders 32 at the lower parts of the three clamping blocks 31 are different, and their positions are adapted to the shape of the control groove 561. It is used to connect with the control groove 561 and the sliding port 21. The upper part of the slider 32 is connected to the sliding port 21. The sliding port 21 can limit the moving direction of the slider 32 to a certain extent. The slider 32 is slidably connected to the control groove 561. A pressing pad 33 is arranged on the outer side of the clamping block 31. It is made of rubber and can be used for multiple clamping members 3 to press and fix the outer shell from the inside of the outer shell. A clamping pad 34 is arranged on the inner side of the clamping block 31. It is made of rubber and is used for anti-slip clamping of the outer shell. The inner side of the clamping block 31 has a certain arc, so that it can better fit the outer shell of the filter. On the sides of the pressing pad 33 and the clamping pad 34 close to each other, two clamping bars 36 are fixedly connected, which are used to cooperate with the connection between the pressing pad 33 and the clamping pad 34 and the clamping block 31. The top of the clamping block 31 is movably connected with a limiting plate 35 through a bolt, which is used to limit the clamping bar 36 to cooperate with the fixing of the pressing pad 33 and the clamping pad 34. Two clamping blocks 351 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the limiting plate 35, which are used to limit the position of the limiting plate 35. Two connecting grooves 312 are opened on both the outer side and the inner side of the clamping block 31, which are used to cooperate with the connection of the clamping bar 36. The clamping bar 36 is movably connected with it. Two clamping grooves 311 are opened on the top of the clamping block 31, which are used to cooperate with the connection of the clamping block 351. The clamping block 351 is movably connected with it.

[0037] Working principle: When in use, place the filter outer shell to be clamped on the top surface of the housing 2, and then turn on the second motor 51. The second motor 51 will drive the rotating shaft 52 to rotate accordingly. The first bevel gear 53 connected to the rotating shaft 52 will rotate accordingly, thereby driving the meshing second bevel gear 54 to rotate. When the second bevel gear 54 rotates, the control plate 56 fixed to it will rotate. When the control plate 56 rotates, the position of the control groove 561 on its upper part will change, and the slider 32 will slide in the control groove 561 accordingly. At the same time, since the upper part of the slider 32 is connected to the sliding port 21, the sliding port 21 will limit the moving direction of the slider 32 to a certain extent. When the control groove 561 rotates, according to its rotation direction, the slider 32 will drive multiple clamping blocks 31 to approach or move away from each other until the clamping pad 34 clamps the filter outer shell. It is also possible to first control multiple clamping blocks 31 to approach each other, then put the filter outer shell on the outside of multiple clamping blocks 31, and then drive the control plate 56 to reverse by the second motor 51, so that multiple clamping blocks 31 open outwards to press against the inner wall of the filter outer shell, thereby fixing the filter outer shell. When it is necessary to drive the filter outer shell to rotate, the first motor 4 can be turned on, and it drives the housing 2 to rotate through the connecting shaft 41.

[0038] When the pressing pad 33 and the clamping pad 34 are damaged due to long-term use and need to be replaced, loosen the bolt between the limiting plate 35 and the clamping block 31, then remove the limiting plate 35 from the clamping block 31, and then pull the pressing pad 33 and the clamping pad 34 upward to disengage the connecting strip 36 connected thereto from the connecting groove 312. Then, snap the connecting strip 36 on the new pressing pad 33 and the clamping pad 34 into the connecting groove 312, snap the clamping block 351 at the lower part of the limiting plate 35 into the clamping groove 311, and then fix the limiting plate 35 and the clamping block 31 with bolts.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
