Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of PVD coating of the long and narrow surface of a compressor sliding vane, in particular to a clamp used for PVD coating of the long and narrow surface of a compressor sliding vane. Background Art

[0002] PVD technology involves using physical methods under vacuum conditions to vaporize the surface of a material source (solid or liquid) into gaseous atoms or molecules, or partially ionize it into ions. Through a low-pressure gas (or plasma) process, a thin film with specialized properties is deposited on the substrate surface. PVD is a major surface treatment technique. PVD coating technologies are primarily categorized into three types: vacuum evaporation, vacuum sputtering, and vacuum ion plating. The main methods of physical vapor deposition include vacuum evaporation, sputtering, arc plasma, ion plating, and molecular beam epitaxy. Corresponding vacuum coating equipment includes vacuum evaporation, sputtering, and vacuum ion plating machines. With advancements in deposition methods and technologies, physical vapor deposition can deposit not only metal and alloy films, but also compounds, ceramics, semiconductors, and polymer films.

[0003] When applying PVD coating to compressor vanes, it is often sufficient to coat only the long and narrow surfaces. However, the fixtures currently used for PVD coating of compressor vanes cannot stably fix the compressor vanes because the compressor vanes are relatively thin. If the compressor vanes move during coating, the coating effect will be affected. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model addresses the deficiencies in the prior art and provides a clamp for coating the long and narrow surfaces of compressor vanes with PVD coatings, which stably clamps the compressor vanes and improves the coating effect of the PVD coatings on the compressor vanes.

[0008] a top plate, disposed on the mounting post on the other side of the base;

[0009] a power mechanism connected to the top plate;

[0010] a fixed clamping block connected to the mounting post;

[0013] a cylinder connected to the top of the top plate;

[0014] a screw rod, disposed inside the mounting column, with one end connected to the cylinder and the other end connected to the base;

[0015] A slide rail is provided inside the mounting column;

[0016] a slider, threadedly connected to the screw rod and slidably connected to the slide rail;

[0017] A connecting rod has one end connected to the slider and the other end connected to the movable clamping block.

[0018] As an optional solution of the technical solution of the present invention, a limit block is provided at the upper end of the slide rail to limit the slider from sliding out of the slide rail.

[0019] As an optional solution of the technical solution of the present utility model, a groove is provided on the fixed clamping block, and the size of the groove matches the size of the movable clamping block.

[0020] As an optional solution of the technical solution of the present utility model, the connecting rod is slidably connected to the mounting column.

[0021] As an optional solution of the technical solution of the present utility model, the fixed clamping block is movably connected to the movable clamping block.

[0022] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0023] The utility model provides a fixture for coating the long and narrow surfaces of compressor vanes with PVD coatings, wherein a screw is driven to rotate by a cylinder, and the screw drives a slider to slide on a slide rail, and the slide rail drives a movable clamping block to move through a connecting rod, and when the movable clamping block is away from a fixed clamping block, the movable clamping block does not clamp the compressor vane, and when the movable clamping block enters a groove of a fixed clamping block to compact the compressor vane, the movable clamping block clamps the compressor vane, thereby achieving stable clamping of the compressor vane and improving the coating effect of the PVD coating of the compressor vane.

[0037] like Figure 1 、 3 As shown, in order to achieve effective and stable clamping of the compressor vane, a groove is provided on the fixed clamping block 5, and the size of the groove matches the size of the movable clamping block 6, so that the movable clamping block 6 can fit into the groove on the fixed clamping block 5, and the movable clamping block 6 is movably connected to the fixed clamping block 5.

[0038] In order to achieve the movement flexibility of the connecting rod 45 , the connecting rod 45 is slidably connected to the mounting column 2 .

[0039] The working process of this embodiment is as follows: first, the cylinder 41 is controlled to drive the screw 42 to rotate, so that the slider 44 slides on the slide rail 43, and the slider 44 drives the movable clamping block 6 to move upward through the connecting rod 45; then, the compressor vane is placed on the groove of the fixed clamping block 5 to ensure that the long and narrow surfaces on both sides of the compressor vane are not blocked; then, the cylinder 41 is controlled to drive the screw 42 to rotate, so that the slider 44 slides on the slide rail 43, and the slider 44 drives the movable clamping block 6 to move into the groove on the fixed clamping block 5 through the connecting rod 45, so that the movable clamping block 6 compacts the compressor vane; then, PVD coating is performed; then, the cylinder 41 is controlled to drive the screw 42 to rotate, so that the slider 44 slides on the slide rail 43, and the slider 44 drives the movable clamping block 6 to move upward through the connecting rod 45; then, the compressor vane is removed from the fixed clamping block 5.
