DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] To deepen the understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with implementation examples and accompanying drawings. The present invention can be implemented in the following ways:
[0027] Reference Figure 1-8 A fixture for processing tee fittings of faucets includes a bridge plate 1, on which a plywood assembly 2 for clamping the tee fitting is symmetrically provided. The design of the two plywood assemblies 2 enables the fixture to process two tee fittings 7 at the same time, thereby improving production efficiency. The plywood assembly 2 includes a fixed plywood 21 and a movable plywood 22, and the other side of the movable plywood 22 is provided with an adjustment assembly 3 for controlling the movable plywood 22 to approach or move away from the fixed plywood 21. When the adjustment assembly 3 pushes the movable plywood 22 close to the fixed plywood 21, the tee fitting 7 can be clamped; when the adjustment assembly 3 pushes the movable plywood 22 away from the fixed plywood 21, the tee fitting 7 can be taken out.
[0028] In order to enable the adjustment component 3 to push the movable splint 22, the outer end of the adjustment component 3 is movably mounted on the baffle 4; the adjustment component 3 includes a sliding block 31 and a screw 32 fixedly connected to the sliding block 31, the rod body of the screw 32 is threadedly connected to the baffle 4, and the baffle 4 is provided with a threaded hole 41 for the screw 32 to pass through. The nut 321 of the screw 32 protrudes outside the baffle 4. The outer end surface of the nut 321 is provided with a hexagonal recessed hole 322, so that the screw 32 can be rotated by a hexagonal wrench; the sliding block 31 is fixedly connected to the movable splint 22 at the other end relative to the screw 32. When the screw 32 is rotated, the screw 32 drives the movable splint 22 closer to or away from the fixed splint 21 through the sliding block 31.
[0029] To ensure that the movable splint 22 can precisely grip the tee fitting 7, two guide rods 5 are symmetrically positioned between the baffle 4 and the fixed splint 21 to guide the reciprocating motion of the movable splint 22. The two guide rods 5 extend through the upper and lower ends of the movable splint 22, one end of each guide rod 5 being fixedly connected to the fixed splint 21 and the other end to the baffle 4. Specifically, the movable splint 22 is provided with guide holes 221 through which the two guide rods 5 pass. The fixed splint 21 is provided with positioning recesses 211 at its upper and lower ends, facing the movable splint 22, for the two guide rods 5 to abut against. This design allows the sliding block 31 and the tee fitting 7 to be located between the two guide rods 5, which not only allows the tee fitting 7 to expose the front and back sides of the secondary pipe 71 and the main pipe opening for grinding, drilling, tapping and other processing, but also improves production efficiency; in addition, the movable splint 22 can only move back and forth along the direction of the two guide rods 5, so that the movable splint 22 can accurately clamp the tee fitting 7 when it is close to the fixed splint 21, greatly improving the processing accuracy.
[0030] To ensure that the shapes of the two facing sides of the movable clamping plate 22 and the fixed clamping plate 21 are compatible with the tee fitting 7, the movable clamping plate 22 is provided with a concave arcuate surface 222 on the side facing the tee fitting 7, which is compatible with the side of the secondary pipe 71 of the tee fitting 7. The fixed clamping plate 21 is provided with an arcuate groove 212 on the side facing the tee fitting 7, which is compatible with the side of the main pipe 72 of the tee fitting 7. This design not only improves clamping accuracy but also prevents wear on the surface of the tee fitting 7 during the clamping process.
[0031] In addition, in order to ensure that the baffle 4 is firmly installed, a fixing block 6 for fixing the baffle 4 on the bridge plate 1 is provided at the outer end of the baffle 4. One side of the fixing block 6 is welded to the baffle 4, and the bottom is welded to the bridge plate 1.
[0032] The two ends of the bridge plate 1 are provided with a plurality of mounting holes 11 for mounting the entire fixture. During installation, the fixture is placed on the machine tool and then fixed on the machine tool with screws passing through the mounting holes 11, which is easy and quick to operate.
[0033] Instructions for use: First, align the main pipe end of the tee fitting 7 with the arc-shaped groove 212 of the fixed clamping plate 21 and insert it. Then, manually tighten the screw 32 using a hexagonal wrench. The screw 32 drives the movable clamping plate 22 along the guide rod 5 toward the fixed clamping plate 21 through the sliding block 31 until the tee fitting 7 is clamped. After processing is completed, use the hexagonal wrench to loosen the screw 32. The screw 32 drives the movable clamping plate 22 along the guide rod 5 away from the fixed clamping plate 21 through the sliding block 31, thereby loosening the tee fitting 7. The operation is simple and quick.
[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
