Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0057] The included angles between the center lines of adjacent stop plates 6 are the same.

[0058] The embodiments of the present application are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0059] See also Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the present application provides a one-way constant angle automatic rotation device, which includes:

[0060] Tooling guide beam 1;

[0061] A base 3 is fixed on the tooling guide rail beam 1, and a turntable 4 is rotatably provided on the top surface of the base 3 via a rotating shaft 5. A plurality of stop plates 6 of different sizes are evenly spaced around the outer side of the turntable 4, and the stop plates 6 are rectangular plates;

[0062] A hydraulic cylinder 8 is provided on the tooling guide rail beam 1 via a hydraulic cylinder support 9, and the hydraulic cylinder 8 is transmission-connected to the rotating shaft 5;

[0063] A tooling seat 2 is slidably arranged on the tooling guide rail beam 1, and the tooling seat 2 is driven by a cylinder 10 configured on the tooling guide rail beam 1 to slide on the tooling guide rail beam 1;

[0064] The tooling seat 2 and the hydraulic cylinder 8 are respectively located on both sides of the base 3; wherein,

[0065] The included angles between the center lines of adjacent stop plates 6 are the same.

[0066] Furthermore, the telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder 8 is provided with a rack 7;

[0067] The bottom surface of the base 3 is provided with a gear 14 sleeved on the rotating shaft 5 , and the rack 7 is matched with the gear 14 .

[0068] Furthermore, a rack guide limit block 24 is provided on the bottom surface of the base 3;

[0069] A strip-shaped slot 70 is provided on one side of the rack 7;

[0070] When the rack 7 is extended and retracted by the hydraulic cylinder 8 , the rack guide limit block 24 slides in the strip-shaped slot 70 . When the rack guide limit block 24 abuts against one end of the strip-shaped slot 70 , the movement of the rack 7 is restricted.

[0071] Furthermore, a one-way clutch 13 is provided between the gear 14 and the rotating shaft 5;

[0072] The one-way clutch 13 is used to control the gear 14 to drive the rotating shaft 5 to rotate in a preset rotation direction.

[0073] Furthermore, both ends of the cylinder 10 are fixed on the tooling guide rail beam 1 through a first pull seat 19 and a second pull seat 20 respectively.

[0074] Furthermore, a first pull seat 19 and a second pull seat 20 are respectively provided at both ends of the cylinder 10;

[0075] The first pull seat 19 is fixed to the bottom surface of the base 3;

[0076] The second pull seat 20 is fixed on the tooling guide rail beam 1 .

[0077] Furthermore, a ball-stud spring plug 12 is provided on the bottom surface of the base 3;

[0078] The bottom of the turntable 4 is provided with a plurality of pits 15;

[0079] One of the recesses 15 corresponds to one of the stop plates 6;

[0080] When the turntable 4 rotates to cause the ball stud spring plug 12 to sink into the pit 15 , the stop plate 6 corresponding to the pit 15 faces the tooling seat 2 .

[0081] Furthermore, a shaft sleeve 25 is provided on the outside of the shaft 5;

[0082] The rotating shaft sleeve 25 is fixedly connected to the base 3 .

[0083] Furthermore, the hydraulic cylinder 8 drives the rack 7 to move via the pin 16 .

[0084] In summary, the advantages of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application are:

[0085] Since the stop plates 6 are of different lengths, multiple stop plates 6 are installed on the turntable 4. Each time the turntable 4 rotates to a fixed value of 90 degrees, the stop plate 6 can be switched to a working state, instead of using a screw to push the tooling seat to change position. This eliminates the risk of poor tooling seat position accuracy caused by the gap between the screw and the nut, greatly reduces the labor intensity of workers and improves production efficiency.

[0086] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present application is implemented as follows:

[0087] The length of the major components of the EMU body generally ranges from 20 meters to 26 meters. During production, 14 to 18 sets of this device are required.

[0088] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the tooling seat 2 is suitable for multiple vehicle models, and there are multiple positioning positions on the tooling guide beam 1. The function of this device is to automatically move the tooling seat 2 to the correct positioning position, reducing the labor intensity of workers and significantly reducing the adjustment time.

[0089] like Figure 3 As shown, the cylinder 10 pulls the tooling seat 2 against the stop plate 6 through the second pull seat 20 connected to the tooling seat 2, showing the tooling seat 2 in a positioned working state; the base 3 and the hydraulic cylinder support 9 are fixed to the tooling guide rail beam 1;

[0090] The rotating shaft sleeve 25 is fixed to the base 3 with screws. The rotating shaft 5 and the rotating shaft sleeve 25 are matched with high precision. The rotating shaft 5 can rotate but does not shake.

[0091] like Figure 4 As shown, the gear 14 and the rack 15 adopt high-precision gapless meshing transmission. The rack 15 can be extended and retracted under the action of the hydraulic cylinder 8. The length of each extension can make the gear 14 rotate 90 degrees; the rack 15 moves in the rack guide limit block 24.

[0092] like Figure 5 As shown, the rack 15 has a slot, the length of which is exactly equal to the sum of the length of the rack guide limit block 24 and the diameter of the pitch circle of the quarter gear 14, thereby ensuring that the rack 15 can rotate the gear 14 90 degrees when it is extended once.

[0093] like Figure 6 As shown, the one-way clutch 13, the gear 14 and the rotating shaft 5 are fixed together by the flat key 22 and the flat key 3 23; the turntable 4 and the rotating shaft 5 are fixed together by the flat key 1 21;

[0094] The above two parts and the rotating shaft 5 together form component 1 through the shaft retaining ring 11, the shaft retaining ring 18, the pressure cover 17, the stop plate 6, etc., wherein the stop plate 6 is multiple pieces with different lengths corresponding to different vehicle models, and the installation screws are in the groove of the turntable 4.

[0095] like Figure 7 As shown, the one-way clutch 13 consists of an inner ring and an outer ring, and both the inner and outer rings have keyways. The outer ring can only rotate in one direction relative to the inner ring and cannot rotate in the reverse direction. Based on the reverse rotation principle of the one-way clutch 13, Figure 6 In the illustrated component 1, the gear 14 and the turntable 5 can only rotate in one direction driven by the rack 15 and cannot rotate in the reverse direction. This is the key point for the smooth operation of the device.

[0096] It should be noted that Figure 7 Schematic diagram of the one-way clutch 13 , which includes an outer ring 130 and an inner ring 131 disposed inside the outer ring 130 , wherein the outer ring is configured with an outer ring keyway 132 , and the inner ring 131 is configured with an inner ring keyway 133 .

[0097] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, a ball-head spring plug 12 is installed on the base 3. There is a spring inside the ball-head spring plug 12, and the ball on it can be retracted into the body under external force;

[0098] There are four pits at the bottom of the turntable 5. After assembly, the ball stud spring plug 12 is just against one of the pits on the turntable 5. Every time the turntable 5 rotates 90 degrees, the ball stud spring plug 12 will then be against the next pit. The purpose of this design is to provide damping for the turntable so that the one-way clutch 13 can rotate smoothly in one direction.

[0099] If the tooling seat 2 is to be moved to another position to change the vehicle model, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the entire transformation process is as follows:

[0100] Step 1: The rodless chamber of the cylinder 10 is inflated, and the cylinder piston rod extends to push the tooling seat 2 away from the stop plate 6. At this time, the tooling seat 2 does not affect the rotation of the turntable 5.

[0101] In step 2, the rodless chamber of the hydraulic cylinder 8 is filled with oil, and the rack 15 is driven to move to the right through the pin shaft 16. Under the non-return action of the one-way clutch 13, the gear 14 drives the turntable 5 to rotate 90 degrees, and the next stop plate 6 is rotated to the working position. At the same time, the ball head spring plug 12 is pressed into the next pit of the turntable 5.

[0102] In step 3, the rod chamber of the cylinder 10 is inflated and the rodless chamber is exhausted. The cylinder piston rod drives the tooling seat 2 to retreat and dock on the new stop plate 6, thereby changing the position of the tooling seat 2.

[0103] In step 4, if the stop plate 6 to be selected happens to be not adjacent to the original stop plate and the turntable 5 needs to be rotated 180 degrees or 270 degrees, step 3 is not executed temporarily. First, the rod chamber of the hydraulic cylinder 8 is filled with oil and the rodless chamber is drained. At this time, the one-way clutch 13 is in a rotatable state, and the ball stud spring plug 12 provides a damping effect on the turntable 5, which can keep the turntable 5 stationary.

[0104] Step 5: After the rack 15 is fully retracted, the operation of step 2 is performed again to turn the non-adjacent stop plate 6 to the working position. The appropriate stop plate can be selected by multiple operations.

[0105] Step 6, finally carry out step 3, return the tooling seat 2 and dock it on the selected stop plate to complete the entire vehicle model change operation.

[0106] In addition, if there are many types of vehicles, for example, if a 60-degree change is required, the number of stopper plate slots of the turntable is changed to 6, and the length of the slot of the rack 15 is changed at the same time. According to the same operation, a 60-degree change can be achieved.
