[0016] In order to more clearly understand the technical means of the present invention and implement it according to the contents of the specification, the specific implementation methods of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention but are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0017] This specific embodiment describes in detail the O-ring expansion device described in this application, such as Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, the O-ring expansion device includes: a pin insertion mechanism 1 and a plate pulling mechanism 2, two plates 21 are provided on the plate pulling mechanism 2, and the two plates 21 can approach each other under the drive of the elastic member, the pin insertion mechanism 1 is provided with an insertion pin 11, and the bottom end of the insertion pin 11 is provided with a material picking member with a wide top and a narrow bottom. The O-ring is made of elastic material, and the inner ring of the O-ring can be sleeved on the middle part of the material picking member. The material picking member can extend from top to bottom between the two plates 21 under the drive of external force, and the outer peripheral wall of the material picking member can squeeze the two plates 21. The two plates 21 can move away from each other and compress the elastic member under the squeeze of the material picking member, and the bottom surface of the O-ring can abut against the top surfaces of the two plates 21. The top end of the material picking member can pass through the inner ring of the O-ring and expand the O-ring under the drive of external force. When in use, first manually put the inner ring of the O-ring on the middle of the material picking piece. The diameter of the middle of the material picking piece is the same as the inner diameter of the inner ring of the O-ring in the initial state. At this time, the inner ring of the O-ring can just fit in the middle of the material picking piece and fix the O-ring through friction. Then manually grab the pin mechanism 1 and align the material picking piece between the two plates 21. Then, extend the material picking piece from top to bottom between the two plates 21. The side wall of the material picking piece squeezes the two plates 21 and separates the two plates 21. At this time, the bottom surface of the O-ring can rest against the plates 2 1, the plate 21 can prevent the O-ring from moving downward. As the picker gradually moves downward and extends between the two plates 21, the top of the picker can extend into the inner ring of the O-ring. Because the diameter of the top of the picker is larger than the inner diameter of the O-ring in its initial state, the O-ring can be expanded by the top of the picker, thereby achieving the effect of expanding the O-ring. Compared with manually stretching the O-ring to achieve the expansion of the O-ring, the operation is more convenient. At the same time, because the size of the top of the picker is fixed, the consistency of each expansion is also better. It has the advantage of facilitating the expansion of the O-ring.
[0018] Optionally, in this embodiment, the pin mechanism 1 includes a shell 12 and a pin 11. A fixing hole is formed through the shell 12. The pin 11 is fixed in the fixing hole, and a material-removing piece at the bottom end of the pin 11 extends out of the fixing hole.
[0019] Optionally, in this embodiment, the plate-pulling mechanism 2 includes two plates 21, a base plate 22, a slide rail 23, two slide seats 24, two fixed plates 29, two optical axes 26 and two elastic members. The slide rail 23 is fixed to the top surface of the base plate 22, and the two slide seats 24 are slidably connected to the slide rail 23 side by side. One plate 21 corresponds to one slide seat 24, and the plate 21 is fixed to the top end of the slide seat 24. The two fixed plates 29 are vertically fixed to the side surfaces of the base plate 22 in opposite directions. The side walls of the slide seats 24 are provided with a first connecting hole, and one fixed plate 29 corresponds to one slide seat 24, an optical axis 26 and an elastic member. The first end of the optical axis 26 is fixed to the fixed plate 29, and the second ends of the optical axis 26 face each other. The second end of the optical axis 26 is slidably passed through the first connecting hole, and the elastic member is sleeved on the optical axis 26. The two ends of the elastic member respectively abut against the fixed plate 29 and the slide seat 24, and the optical axis 26 and the slide rail 23 are parallel to each other. When the material picking piece extends between the two plates 21, the two plates 21 move away from each other under the pressure of the material picking piece, and at the same time compress the elastic member. When the material picking piece is separated from the plates 21, the two plates 21 are reset under the drive of the elastic member.
[0020] Optionally in this embodiment, the elastic member is a compression spring.
[0021] In this embodiment, the pin 11 is optionally made of an antistatic material, and the pick-up member includes a root 13, a transition section 14, and an end 15. The root 13 is located at the top of the pick-up member, the transition section 14 is located in the middle of the pick-up member, and the end 15 is located at the bottom of the pick-up member. The root 13 is truncated cone-shaped, with a top diameter greater than a bottom diameter of the root 13. The top of the root 13 connects to the bottom of the pin 11. The end 15 is conical, with a top diameter greater than a bottom diameter of the end 15. The transition section 14 is cylindrical, with the two ends of the transition section 14 connecting the bottom end of the root 13 and the top end of the end 15, respectively. A limit member 16 is protruding from the outer peripheral wall of the top end of the root 13, and the top end of the O-ring can abut against the limit member 16. The limit member 16 can serve as a limit to prevent the O-ring from excessive upward movement and separation from the pick-up member.
[0022] This embodiment optionally further includes a fixing base 17. The top of the fixing base 17 is fixed to the side wall of the housing 12. Two connecting pins 18 are protruding from the bottom of the fixing base 17. Two second connecting holes 25 are defined in the guide plate 21 for the connecting pins 18 to extend into. A positioning plate 27 is disposed between the slide 24 and the guide plate 21. A protrusion 28 is disposed at the bottom of the positioning plate 27. A positioning member is fixed to the top surface of the bottom plate 22. The positioning member is located between the two protrusions 28. Driven by a compression spring, the two protrusions 28 can approach each other and abut against the positioning member, thereby preventing the two guide plates 21 from contacting each other. This creates a gap between the two guide plates 21, facilitating the insertion of a material removal component between the two guide plates 21.
[0023] The use of the O-ring expansion device in this embodiment has the advantage of being easy to expand the O-ring.
