Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of punch press clamping, in particular to a clamping device for a punch press. Background Art
[0002] A punch press is a mechanical device that uses a stamping die to process metal materials. Mechanical force or a hydraulic system is used to rapidly press the upper die against the lower die, deforming or shearing the material to the desired shape or size. Punching presses are widely used in the manufacture of various metal parts, such as sheet metal, automotive components, and appliance housings. During the stamping process, the workpiece or die must remain stationary, otherwise machining deviations will occur, affecting the quality of the finished product. Therefore, a clamping device is required for punch presses. The clamping device can firmly secure the workpiece to prevent movement or vibration.
[0003] There are many types of clamping devices, including mechanical clamps, hydraulic clamps, pneumatic clamps and electric clamps. These clamps can be used individually or in combination according to different application scenarios and needs to ensure that the punch press can achieve efficient and precise processing under various process conditions. In electric clamps, the clamping mechanism is driven by a motor to achieve automatic clamping operation. The motor drives the lead screw and converts the motor's rotational motion into linear movement or rotation of the clamping jaws, thereby clamping or releasing the workpiece.
[0004] However, existing electric clamps have certain limitations in practical applications. When faced with workpieces of different shapes or sizes, the clamping and positioning effects of electric clamps are poor. Electric clamps usually drive the jaws through a motor and use a screw or gear system to convert the motor's rotational motion into linear or rotational motion of the jaws to achieve clamping of the workpiece. However, the jaws of this type of clamp are usually pre-designed fixed shapes that are suitable for workpieces of specific sizes or shapes. When it is necessary to clamp workpieces of different shapes or sizes, the shape and motion trajectory of the jaws cannot flexibly adapt to these changes. Since the jaws cannot automatically adjust their contact surface according to the shape of the workpiece, the contact between the clamping surface and the workpiece is insufficient and only contacts in some areas, resulting in uneven distribution of clamping force and unstable clamping. In addition, since the clamping angle or position of the jaws cannot be adjusted, the workpiece will be displaced or rotated during the clamping process, further increasing the processing error. This limitation not only affects the stability of the clamping, but also directly affects the quality and efficiency of the overall processing. Utility Model Content

[0038] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3The utility model provides an embodiment of a clamping device for a punching machine, comprising a base 1, wherein the base 1 is internally connected to a bolt 4 through a threaded connection, and the rotation of the bolt 4 can enable the displacement adjustment within the base 1, thereby achieving adaptation to workpieces of different sizes. A driving assembly is provided on one side of the base 1, and the driving assembly is used to drive the rotation of the bolt 4, thereby driving the bolt 4 to move forward and backward along its threaded axis, thereby adjusting the position of the splint 6, and a ball 5 is fixedly connected to one end of the bolt 4, and the ball 5 is rotatably connected to the ball sleeve 8 through its outer wall. The design of the ball 5 enables the bolt 4 to maintain a stable connection with the ball sleeve 8 during rotation, without affecting the angle adjustment of the splint 6, and the outer wall of the ball sleeve 8 is fixedly connected to the splint 6, and the splint 6 is used to clamp the workpiece, and both sides of the splint 6 are fixedly connected with convex The design of block 7 and protrusion 7 enables the splint 6 to fit workpieces of different shapes more firmly, ensuring the clamping stability. A limiting column 9 is also fixedly connected to the inside of the base 1. The function of the limiting column 9 is to provide a sliding guide for the slider 10 to ensure that the clamping device does not deviate during operation. The outer wall of the limiting column 9 is slidably connected to the slider 10. The sliding of the slider 10 can effectively adjust the position and angle of the splint 6 to adapt to workpieces of different shapes and sizes. The outer wall of the slider 10 is rotatably connected to the support rod 11. One end of the support rod 11 is connected to the slider 10, and the other end is rotatably connected to the ball 2 12. The outer wall of the ball 2 12 is engaged with the ball sleeve 8, ensuring that the splint 6 can be adaptively adjusted according to the shape of the workpiece during the clamping process, thereby enhancing the adaptability of the equipment to different workpieces.
[0039] The reset assembly includes a first spring 13, which is sleeved on the outer wall of the limit column 9. One end of the first spring 13 is fixedly connected to the inside of the base 1, and the other end is fixedly connected to one end of the slider 10. When the slider 10 deviates during operation, the first spring 13 can generate a reset force to restore the slider 10 to its initial position, ensuring the stability and operation convenience of the equipment. The driving assembly includes a telescopic rod 2 and a motor 3. One end of the telescopic rod 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the base 1. The length change of the telescopic rod 2 enables the relative position of the motor 3 to be adjusted to adapt to the size and shape of different workpieces. The other end of the telescopic rod 2 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the motor 3. The output end of the motor 3 is connected to the bolt 4. The rotation output of the motor 3 can drive the rotation of the bolt 4, thereby adjusting the clamping device to achieve precise clamping of the workpiece. The outer wall of the limit column 9 is sleeved with a reset assembly, which is used to reset the slider 10 to its initial position after the operation is completed;
[0040] Specifically, the output end of motor 3 drives bolt 4 to rotate. Since bolt 4 partially extends into base 1 during rotation, motor 3 is connected to base 1 via telescopic rod 2. Therefore, when bolt 4 moves, telescopic rod 2 contracts, thereby driving motor 3 and bolt 4 to move synchronously. Bolt 4 is connected to ball sleeve 8 on clamp 6 via ball sleeve 1 5 at one end. Therefore, when bolt 4 rotates within ball sleeve 8, it does not cause clamp 6 to rotate along with it. Clamp 6 can then firmly clamp the workpiece. The bumps 7 on either side of clamp 6 can fit workpieces of different shapes. When the workpiece is asymmetrical, during the fitting process, clamp 6 is connected to ball sleeve 2 12 on both sides via ball sleeve 8. Clamp 6 is then positioned on the outer wall of limit column 1 9 via support rod 11 and slider 10. At the same time, the tension of first spring 13 ensures that clamp 6 remains stably positioned and provides auxiliary support even when tilted. When the splint 6 needs to be replaced to adapt to various types and shapes of workpieces, it is only necessary to separate the ball sleeve 8 from the ball 5 on the splint 6 to quickly install other types of splints 6, thereby achieving the effect of adapting to workpieces of different shapes and simplifying the replacement of the splint 6, thereby improving operational convenience and work efficiency.
[0041] Reference Figure 4-Figure 6The base 1 is provided with a slide groove 14, which is used for the sliding guide of the limit block 16 to ensure that the limit block 16 slides in a straight line inside the base 1 and maintains a stable operating state. The base 1 is also provided with a linearly arranged card groove 15, which is used to cooperate with the card block 20 so that the limit device can be locked in a specific position, thereby ensuring the positioning accuracy of the workpiece. The limit block 16 is slidably connected to the inside of the slide groove 14. The sliding movement of the limit block 16 can drive the movement of the entire positioning mechanism to adapt to workpieces of different sizes. , one side of the limit block 16 is fixedly connected to the limit column 2 17, and the limit column 2 17 plays a role in providing limit support in the slide groove 14 by cooperating with other components. The limit block 16 is internally fixedly connected to the limit column 3 18. The function of the limit column 3 18 is to provide support for the sliding of the connecting plate 22, and the sliding connection of the limit column 3 18 ensures that the connecting plate 22 can operate stably, thereby driving the limit function of the entire clamping mechanism. The outer wall of the limit column 3 18 is slidably connected with a symmetrically arranged connecting plate 22, and the connecting plate 22 is structurally The symmetrical arrangement ensures uniform force during the clamping and limiting process without offset. The connecting plate 22 is internally connected to a connecting rod 19 for connecting the card block 20 and the connecting plate 22, so that the movement of the card block 20 is synchronized with the connecting plate 22, thereby realizing the limiting and unlocking operations. One end of the connecting rod 19 is rotatably connected to the card block 20, which is embedded in the card slot 15. When the limiting block 16 slides to a specific position, the card block 20 can extend into the card slot 15 to fix the limiting block 16. The card block 20 and the card slot 15 are embedded. The combined design ensures that the positioning device can be accurately locked in the required position during operation, avoiding accidental movement of the limit block 16. The outer wall of the limit column 3 18 is provided with a second spring 21. The function of the second spring 21 is to provide a rebound force for the limit mechanism so that the block 20 can be quickly reset when needed. One end of the second spring 21 is fixedly connected to the inside of the limit block 16, and the other end is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plate 22. The tension of the spring ensures that the block 20 can remain in the reset state when not in use, avoiding the limit block 16 from loosening during operation.
[0042] Specifically, the position of the limiting column 17 can be flexibly adjusted according to the size or position of the workpiece to be installed. The specific operation is that the limiting block 16 is driven to slide smoothly in the slide groove 14 by pushing the limiting column 17, and the block 20 in the slide groove 14 is firmly connected to the connecting plate 22 through the connecting rod 19, ensuring that the block 20 always maintains a limiting effect on the outer wall of the limiting column 18. At the same time, the elastic force of the second spring 21 provides tension support for the block 20, so that the block 20 can naturally extend out of the limiting block 16 and be firmly embedded in the inside of the card slot 15. In this way, the limiting block 16 accurately limits the positioning of the limiting column 17, ensuring the stability and safety of the workpiece during the installation process, and finally achieving the purpose of effectively limiting the workpiece, ensuring the smooth progress of the entire installation process.
[0043] Working principle: When using the workpiece processing and forming auxiliary equipment, first adjust the position of the limit column 2 17 according to the workpiece to be installed, and only need to drive the limit block 16 to slide in the slide groove 14 through the limit column 2 17. The block 20 in the slide groove 14 is connected to the outer wall of the limit column 3 18 through the connecting rod 19 and the connecting plate 22, and is supported by the tension of the second spring 21, so that the block 20 extends out of the limit block 16 and is embedded in the card slot 15, and then the limit column 2 17 is limited by the limit block 16, so as to achieve the effect of limiting the workpiece, and then the output end of the motor 3 drives the bolt 4 to rotate. Since the bolt 4 will extend into the base 1 when it rotates, the motor 3 and the base 1 are connected by the telescopic rod 2. Therefore, when the bolt 4 is displaced, the telescopic rod 2 contracts, thereby synchronizing the motor 3 and the bolt 4. When the workpiece is asymmetrical, the two sides of the splint 6 are connected with the ball 2 12 through the ball sleeve 8 and the support rod 11 and the slider 10 are limited on the outer wall of the limit column 9, and the tension support of the first spring 13 is used to limit the splint 6 when it is tilted, and provide auxiliary support. When the splint 6 needs to be replaced to adapt to various types of workpieces, it is only necessary to separate the ball sleeve 8 from the ball 15 through the splint 6, and then different types of splints 6 can be installed, thereby achieving the effect of adapting to workpieces of different shapes and facilitating the replacement of the splint 6.
[0044] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
