The use of "first" and "second" in the description is solely for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and is not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, implicitly specifying the number of the indicated technical features, or implicitly specifying the order of the indicated technical features.
[0027] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, and connecting should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.
[0028] Reference Figure 1 A tool for removing aluminum chips includes: a frame 100, a rotating bracket 150, a clamping mechanism 200, and a positioning mechanism 400; the rotating bracket 150 is rotatably mounted on the frame 100; the clamping mechanism 200 is disposed on the rotating bracket 150, and the rotating bracket 150 can drive the clamping mechanism 200 to flip relative to the frame 100; the positioning mechanism 400 is disposed between the frame 100 and the rotating bracket 150, and the positioning mechanism 400 can relatively fix the rotating bracket 150 and the frame 100, or release the relative fixation effect between the rotating bracket 150 and the frame 100. After the clamping mechanism 200 clamps the box, the staff can scrape the aluminum chips from the exposed front side of the box. Thereafter, the rotating bracket 150 can drive the box to flip through the clamping mechanism 200, thereby changing the orientation angle inside the box and exposing the side of the box that has not been cleaned of aluminum chips. After that, the staff can easily scrape the aluminum chips from the exposed back of the box, thereby achieving the effect of completely removing the aluminum chips from the box. In addition, in the process of scraping the aluminum chips, tools such as air guns can be used to assist. Therefore, by driving the rotating bracket 150 to rotate, the aluminum chips in the box can be quickly and effectively removed, thereby increasing the efficiency of removing aluminum chips while reducing the work intensity of the staff, and effectively avoiding problems such as false alarms caused by the presence of aluminum chips. The positioning mechanism 400 can fix the rotating bracket 150 when the staff is taking and placing the box and the rotating bracket 150, thereby avoiding problems such as shaking of the rotating bracket 150 during the installation of the box, thereby effectively protecting the staff and correspondingly improving the efficiency of the rotating bracket 150 in installing or unloading the box.
[0029] In certain embodiments, reference Figure 1The clamping mechanism 200 is movably mounted on the rotating bracket 150 and is capable of reciprocating relative to the rotating bracket 150. The movement of the clamping mechanism 200 relative to the rotating bracket 150 effectively changes the position of the housing relative to the rotating bracket 150, or the position at which the clamping mechanism 200 grips the housing. This change in housing position effectively prevents collisions between the housing and peripheral components during movement, while the change in gripping position ensures that the clamping mechanism 200 grips a conveniently gripped portion of the housing, thereby effectively and securely securing the housing to the rotating bracket 150.
[0030] In certain embodiments, reference Figure 1 The rotating bracket 150 is provided with a strip-shaped hole 155, and the clamping mechanism 200 is installed with a threaded member. The threaded member is slidably installed in the strip-shaped hole 155 and can clamp the clamping mechanism 200 and the rotating bracket 150. When the threaded member is loosened relative to the rotating bracket 150, the threaded member can slide back and forth in the strip-shaped hole 155, thereby effectively achieving the effect of adjusting the position of the clamping mechanism 200. The spiral clamping of the rotating bracket 150 by the threaded member can fix the clamping mechanism 200 and the box body to the rotating bracket 150, thereby effectively preventing the box body from shaking during rotation.
[0031] Specifically, the threaded member is a bolt. Of course, the threaded member can also be composed of other components, such as a screw, a bolt, etc. The specific implementation method is not unique, but can be adjusted accordingly according to actual conditions, and is not limited here.
[0032] In certain embodiments, reference Figure 1 There are multiple clamping mechanisms 200, each of which can move closer or farther away from the other. Multiple clamping mechanisms 200 can each clamp different parts of the box, effectively improving the stability of the clamping mechanisms 200 in clamping the box. Furthermore, since the distance between each clamping mechanism 200 can be adjusted, it is possible to ensure that the clamping mechanisms 200 can smoothly clamp to a specific position on the box, thereby ensuring that the clamping mechanisms 200 can effectively clamp the box.
[0033] In certain embodiments, reference Figure 2 The clamping mechanism 200 includes a drive cylinder 235 connected to either side of the rotating bracket 150. Each drive cylinder 235 is connected to a clamping block. The clamping blocks on either side of the rotating bracket 150 can move toward or away from each other. When the drive cylinder 235 is activated, it causes the clamping blocks to move. This allows the clamping of the box to be held in place by the clamping blocks on either side of the rotating bracket 150 moving closer together, thereby smoothly clamping the box.
[0034] Specifically, there are four driving cylinders 235, two of which are connected to each side of the rotating bracket 150. A clamping groove 255 is provided on the clamping block, and the box body can be surrounded and clamped by the clamping groove 255.
[0035] In certain embodiments, reference Figure 3 The rotating bracket 150 is connected to a rotating shaft 350, and a handwheel 310 is provided at the end of the rotating shaft 350. The handwheel 310 can drive the rotating bracket 150 to rotate through the rotating shaft 350. When the staff drives the handwheel 310 to rotate, the rotating shaft 350 can be directly and effectively driven to rotate through the handwheel 310, so that the rotating shaft 350 can drive the box to flip through the rotating bracket 150, thereby achieving the purpose of throwing out aluminum chips.
[0036] It is conceivable that the rotating shaft 350 can also be driven by a motor or other components. The specific implementation is not unique, but can be adjusted accordingly according to actual conditions, and is not limited here.
[0037] In certain embodiments, reference Figure 4 The frame 100 is provided with a bearing seat 330, on which the rotating shaft 350 is rotatably mounted. A connecting seat 370 is rotatably mounted on the bearing seat 330, and the rotating bracket 150 is connected to the connecting seat 370. The bearing seat 330 supports the rotating shaft 350, thereby ensuring smooth rotation of the rotating shaft 350. The connecting seat 370 provides a positioning connection between the rotating bracket 150 and the frame 100, thereby effectively improving the kinematic stability of the rotating bracket 150.
[0038] In certain embodiments, reference Figure 3 The rotating bracket 150 is connected to the rotating shaft 350. The positioning mechanism 400 includes a positioning rod 430 and a positioning wheel 450 fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 350. The outer periphery of the positioning wheel 450 is provided with a plurality of positioning grooves 455. The end of the positioning rod 430 can be moved and inserted into at least one of the positioning grooves 455, so that the positioning rod 430 and the positioning wheel 450 can be relatively fixed. When the rotating shaft 350 rotates, it will drive the positioning wheel 450 to rotate together. When it is necessary to fix the rotating shaft 350 and the rotating bracket 150, the positioning rod 430 can be driven to move, and the end of the positioning rod 430 can be inserted into the positioning groove 455, so that the rotating shaft 350 can be fixed through the plug-in effect between the positioning rod 430 and the positioning wheel 450, thereby achieving the effect of fixing the rotating bracket 150 and the box.
[0039] Specifically, a plug connector 440 is provided at the end of the positioning rod 430. The plug connector 440 is hinged to the positioning rod 430 and has a limited rotation angle, thereby ensuring that the plug connector 440 can adapt to the orientation angle of the positioning groove 455, and further ensuring that the plug connector 440 can be smoothly inserted into the positioning groove 455.
[0040] In certain embodiments, reference Figure 5 The frame 100 is movably connected to a lever 410. A positioning rod 430 is connected to the lever 410 and offset from the rotation center of the lever 410. The positioning wheel 450 and the lever 410 are respectively located at both ends of the positioning rod 430. When the lever 410 rotates, it can cause the position offset from its rotation center to flip and move. Therefore, the lever 410 can effectively drive the positioning rod 430 to move, thereby ensuring that the positioning rod 430 can smoothly insert and fix the positioning wheel 450.
[0041] Specifically, one end of the lever 410 is hinged to the frame 100 , and the other end is provided with a pedal, so that the staff can drive the lever 410 by pedaling.
[0042] In certain embodiments, reference Figure 5 The lever 410 is connected to a return spring 420, which is located at an eccentric portion of the lever 410. The return spring 420 can drive the positioning rod 430 to move closer to the positioning wheel 450 through the lever 410. The return spring 420 can drive the positioning rod 430 to automatically insert into the positioning groove 455 through the lever 410, and the elastic force of the return spring 420 can maintain the insertion effect, thereby preventing the positioning rod 430 from automatically separating from the positioning groove 455.
[0043] The technical features of the above-mentioned embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-mentioned embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0044] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by ordinary technicians in the technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
