[0018] The present utility model will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings through specific embodiments. It should be noted here that the description of these embodiments is used to help understand the present utility model, but does not constitute a limitation to the present utility model. In addition, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of the present utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0019] See Figures 1 to 2 , what is shown in the figure is a structure of an electric discharge machining electrode fixture. The electric discharge machining electrode fixture structure is installed on an electric discharge machining machine tool and is used for clamping an electrode in the electric discharge machining step. The electric discharge machining electrode fixture structure includes: a fixture main rod 1, a main rod connecting block 2, a fixture extension rod 3, an extension rod connecting block 4, a fixture electrode rod 5, an electrode rod clamping block 6, etc.
[0020] The fixture main rod 1 extends along the vertical direction. The fixture main rod 1 has a main rod first end and a main rod second end that are opposite to each other. The main rod first end of the fixture main rod 1 is fixed. The main rod second end of the fixture main rod 1 is fixedly connected to the main rod connecting block 2.
[0021] In specific implementation, the main rod first end of the fixture main rod 1 is the upper end, and the main rod second end of the fixture main rod 1 is the lower end.
[0022] In specific implementation, the main rod first end of the fixture main rod 1 is fixed by the chuck of the electric discharge machining machine tool.
[0023] In specific implementation, the main rod second end of the fixture main rod 1 and the main rod connecting block 2 are of an integral structure.
[0024] The main rod connecting block 2 has a through hole 20 for the extension rod to pass through. The axial direction of the through hole 20 for the extension rod to pass through is perpendicular to the axial direction of the fixture main rod 1.
[0025] The fixture extension rod 3 passes through the extension rod through-hole 20. The fixture extension rod 3 is in shaft-hole fit with the extension rod through-hole 20. The fixture extension rod 3 is displaced along the axial direction of the extension rod through-hole 20 (see Figure 1 and Figure 3 , Figure 1 wherein the main rod connection block 2 is away from the extension rod connection block 4, Figure 3 and
[0026] wherein the main rod connection block 2 is close to the extension rod connection block 4) and rotates about the axis of the extension rod through-hole 20.
[0027] Preferably, the main rod connection block 2 has an extension rod locking member 7. When the fixture extension rod 3 is displaced to a specified position and / or a specified angle, the extension rod locking member 7 locks the fixture extension rod 3 to prevent it from further displacement and / or rotation.
[0028] Specifically, when implemented, the extension rod locking member 7 is a locking screw. The extension rod locking member 7 passes through the main rod connection block 2 and extends along the radial direction of the fixture extension rod 3. The extension rod locking member 7 abuts against the fixture extension rod 3, and the fixture extension rod 3 is locked.
[0029] The fixture electrode rod 5 passes through the electrode rod through-hole 40. The fixture electrode rod 5 is in shaft-hole fit with the electrode rod through-hole 40. The fixture electrode rod 5 is displaced along the axial direction of the electrode rod through-hole 40 and rotates about the axis of the electrode rod through-hole 40 (see
[0030] and Figure 1 and Figure 4 , Figure 1 wherein the fixture electrode rod 5 is vertical, Figure 4 and
[0031] wherein the fixture electrode rod 5 is inclined).
[0032] In specific implementation, the electrode rod locking member 8 is a locking screw. The electrode rod locking member 8 passes through the extension rod connecting block 4 and extends along the radial direction of the fixture electrode rod 5. The electrode rod locking member 8 abuts against the fixture electrode rod 5, and the fixture electrode rod 5 is locked.
[0033] The fixture electrode rod 5 has an opposite electrode rod first end and electrode rod second end. The electrode rod first end of the fixture electrode rod 5 has an electrode rod shoulder 50. The electrode rod shoulder 50 is used to prevent the fixture electrode rod 5 from leaving the electrode rod through hole 40. The electrode rod second end of the fixture electrode rod 5 is fixedly connected to the electrode clamping block 6. The electrode clamping block 6 is used to clamp the electrode.
[0034] In specific implementation, the electrode clamping block 6 has a fixed inverted L-shaped plate 61 and a movable inverted L-shaped plate 62. The horizontal portion of the fixed inverted L-shaped plate 61 is fixedly connected to the electrode rod second end of the fixture electrode rod 5. The vertical portion of the fixed inverted L-shaped plate 61 is opposite to the vertical portion of the movable inverted L-shaped plate 62. The vertical portion of the fixed inverted L-shaped plate 61 and the vertical portion of the movable inverted L-shaped plate 62 are movably connected by a bolt and nut 63. That is, the vertical portion of the movable inverted L-shaped plate 62 can move towards or away from the vertical portion of the fixed inverted L-shaped plate 61 to adjust the distance between the two (see Figure 1 and Figure 5 , Figure 1 wherein the vertical portion of the fixed inverted L-shaped plate 61 and the vertical portion of the movable inverted L-shaped plate 62 are at a small distance, Figure 5 wherein the vertical portion of the fixed inverted L-shaped plate 61 and the vertical portion of the movable inverted L-shaped plate 62 are at a large distance), the purpose is to adapt to electrodes of different sizes and specifications. Preferably, the horizontal portion of the movable inverted L-shaped plate 62 has a chute 64. The vertical portion of the fixed inverted L-shaped plate 61 is inside the chute 64. The purpose is to ensure that the movable inverted L-shaped plate 62 can move smoothly.
[0035] The above only expresses the implementation modes of the present utility model, and its description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as a limitation to the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present utility model, several deformations and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the present utility model patent shall be subject to the appended claims.
