[0019] Please refer to Figures 1-5As shown in the figure, a workpiece fixing device for a universal testing machine includes a base 1. A placing table 2 is installed on the base 1. A sliding groove 3 is formed on the placing table 2. Two groups of sliding blocks 6 are symmetrically assembled in the sliding groove 3. A sliding plate 7 is installed on the sliding block 6. A clamping block 8 is installed on the sliding plate 7. An assembly groove 9 is formed inside the clamping block 8. A plurality of rod grooves 10 are formed on the inner wall of the front plate of the clamping block 8. A positioning rod 11 is installed in the rod groove 10. A plurality of positioning grooves 12 are formed on the positioning rod 11. Two groups of lifting grooves 13 are symmetrically formed inside the clamping block 8. A second lead screw 14 is rotatably installed on the inner wall of the lifting groove 13. The top side of the second lead screw 14 penetrates through the top plate of the clamping block 8 and is welded with a second knob 15. A lifting block 24 is assembled in the lifting groove 13. The lifting block 24 is fixedly connected to the side walls of a plurality of positioning rods 11. The lifting block 24 is sleeved around the second lead screw 14 and is in sliding fit with the second lead screw 14 through threads. A plurality of rod holes 16 are formed on the front plate of the clamping block 8. A sliding rod 17 penetrates through the rod hole 16. A limiting block 18 is installed on the sliding rod 17. A first lead screw 4 is rotatably installed on the inner wall of the sliding groove 3. The thread directions of the first lead screw 4 are symmetrically opposite. One side of the first lead screw 4 penetrates through the side wall of the placing table 2 and is welded with a first knob 5. The first lead screw 4 penetrates through the sliding block 6. The sliding block 6 is in sliding fit with the first lead screw 4 through threads. A connecting groove 19 is formed on the inner wall of the assembly groove 9. A connecting block 20 is assembled in the connecting groove 19. A moving plate 21 is installed on the connecting block 20. The moving plate 21 is slidably assembled in the assembly groove 9. A groove 22 is formed on the top plate of the clamping block 8. A pushing block 23 is assembled in the groove 22. The pushing block 23 is fixedly connected to the moving plate 21. During operation, in the process of clamping and fixing a workpiece by the existing fixing device of a universal testing machine, since the contact area between the clamping plate and the irregular workpiece is small, it is difficult to clamp and fix the irregular workpiece, resulting in poor adaptability of the fixing device. By placing the irregular workpiece on the placing table 2 and rotating the first knob 5, the first lead screw 4 is driven to rotate. The first lead screw 4 drives the two groups of sliding blocks 6 on it to move relatively synchronously. The two groups of sliding blocks 6 drive the two groups of sliding plates 7 to move relatively synchronously. The two groups of sliding plates 7 drive the two groups of clamping blocks 8 to move relatively synchronously. The two groups of clamping blocks 8 move towards the irregular workpiece. During the moving process, the sliding rod 17 on the clamping block 8 contacts the irregular workpiece. The irregular workpiece pushes the sliding rod 17 into the clamping block 8 according to its own shape. At this time, the irregular workpiece is surrounded by the sliding rods 17 on the two groups of clamping blocks 8;
[0020] At this time, rotate the two groups of second knobs 15 on the clamping block 8. The second knobs 15 drive the second lead screw 14 to rotate. The second lead screw 14 drives the lifting block 24 on it to move vertically downward. The lifting block 24 drives a plurality of positioning rods 11 to move vertically downward. The positioning rods 11 press and fix the sliding rod 17 at its bottom side, realizing the positioning of the sliding rod 17. The sliding rod 17 changes from a sliding state to a fixed state. Therefore, the two groups of clamping blocks 8 clamp and fix the irregular workpiece through the sliding rods 17;
[0021] When disassembling an irregular workpiece, by rotating the first knob 5 in the reverse direction, two groups of clamping blocks 8 are driven to move synchronously and in opposite directions. The sliding rods 17 on the two groups of clamping blocks 8 no longer clamp the irregular workpiece, realizing the disassembly of the irregular workpiece. Then, by pushing the push block 23, the push block 23 drives the moving plate 21 to move, and the moving plate 21 pushes the sliding rod 17 on the clamping block 8 to move, so that the limiting block 18 on the sliding rod 17 is in contact with the inner wall of the assembly groove 9, realizing the neat return of the sliding rod 17, which is convenient for the next clamping use; this structure can clamp and fix the irregular workpiece through the sliding rod 17, which is beneficial to improving the adaptability of the fixing device.
[0022] Working principle: In the process of clamping and fixing a workpiece by the existing fixing device of a universal testing machine, since the contact area between the clamping plate and the irregular workpiece is small, it is difficult to clamp and fix the irregular workpiece, resulting in poor adaptability of the fixing device. By placing the irregular workpiece on the placing table 2 and rotating the first knob 5, the first lead screw 4 is driven to rotate. The first lead screw 4 drives two groups of sliders 6 on it to move synchronously and relatively. The two groups of sliders 6 drive two groups of sliding plates 7 to move synchronously and relatively. The two groups of sliding plates 7 drive two groups of clamping blocks 8 to move synchronously and relatively. The two groups of clamping blocks 8 move towards the irregular workpiece. During the movement, the sliding rod 17 on the clamping block 8 contacts the irregular workpiece, and the irregular workpiece pushes the sliding rod 17 into the clamping block 8 according to its own shape. At this time, the irregular workpiece is surrounded by the sliding rods 17 on the two groups of clamping blocks 8; at this time, rotate two groups of second knobs 15 on the clamping block 8. The second knob 15 drives the second lead screw 14 to rotate. The second lead screw 14 drives the lifting block 24 on it to move vertically downward. The lifting block 24 drives a plurality of positioning rods 11 to move vertically downward. The positioning rods 11 press and fix the sliding rod 17 on its bottom side, realizing the positioning of the sliding rod 17. The sliding rod 17 changes from a sliding state to a fixed state. Therefore, the two groups of clamping blocks 8 clamp and fix the irregular workpiece through the sliding rod 17; when disassembling the irregular workpiece, by rotating the first knob 5 in the reverse direction, two groups of clamping blocks 8 are driven to move synchronously and in opposite directions. The sliding rods 17 on the two groups of clamping blocks 8 no longer clamp the irregular workpiece, realizing the disassembly of the irregular workpiece. Then, by pushing the push block 23, the push block 23 drives the moving plate 21 to move, and the moving plate 21 pushes the sliding rod 17 on the clamping block 8 to move, so that the limiting block 18 on the sliding rod 17 is in contact with the inner wall of the assembly groove 9, realizing the neat return of the sliding rod 17, which is convenient for the next clamping use; this structure can clamp and fix the irregular workpiece through the sliding rod 17, which is beneficial to improving the adaptability of the fixing device.
