Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of spark machine equipment, in particular to an oil tank door locking device. Background Art
[0002] As a high-precision machining device, spark machines are widely used in mold manufacturing, aerospace, and electronic components. Their primary operating principle is to process difficult-to-cut materials, such as mold steel, through electroerosion. The efficient operation of spark machines relies on their complex internal electroerosion and cooling systems, generating significant amounts of high temperature, high pressure, sparks, and coolant. To ensure operator safety, improve work efficiency, and maintain long-term stable operation of the equipment, the design of the oil tank door locking device is crucial. The oil tank door is a crucial component of the spark machine, its primary function being to prevent the escape of high-temperature sparks and coolant, thereby protecting the working environment and operator safety. During operation, the internal environment of a spark machine is extremely harsh, characterized by high voltage and temperature, as well as large amounts of sparks and coolant. These factors place high demands on the oil tank door locking device.
[0003] Many spark machine oil tank door locking devices currently on the market are overly simplistic, locking the door solely through a block that latches onto the inside of the oil tank. This results in poor sealing, posing a risk of leakage, especially after prolonged use. These devices often lack effective sealing and locking mechanisms, are prone to failure in high-pressure and high-temperature environments, and fail to provide reliable protection. This situation not only impacts the normal operation of the spark machine but also poses a potential threat to operator safety and the working environment. Utility Model Content

[0023] The inner wall of the fixing sleeve 4 is placed tightly against the connecting rod 1. A first annular groove is provided in the middle of the connecting rod 1. A first O-ring 9 is installed in the first annular groove to seal between the connecting rod 1 and the fixing sleeve 4. There are four first annular grooves arranged at equal intervals.
[0024] The fixing sleeve 4 includes a sleeve 401 with an external thread on one end. An annular plate 402 is provided at the other end, away from the external thread, and is integrally formed with the sleeve 401. A second annular groove is provided on the inner side of the annular plate 402. A second O-ring 10 is installed in the second annular groove to seal between the annular plate 402 and the oil tank door panel 6.
[0025] The locking nut handle 2 and the stopper 3 are both threadedly connected to the ends of the connecting rod 1 and fixed by machine screws. By rotating the locking nut handle 2, the connecting rod 1 and the stopper 3 are driven to rotate together, so that the stopper 3 is stuck on the inner side of the oil tank body 11 to achieve locking.
[0026] The locking nut handle 2 includes an integrally formed first truncated cone 201 and a second truncated cone 202, wherein the diameter of the first truncated cone 201 is larger than the diameter of the second truncated cone 202, so that the handle can be grasped and rotated by hand.
