Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of cold plate processing, and in particular to a quick-change tooling for multi-surface processing of cold plates. Background Art

[0002] Cold plates, also known as cooling plates or liquid cold plates, are metal plates with a circulating fluid inside. They provide cooling, significantly improving cooling efficiency when airflow is insufficient. They are widely used in battery cooling, data center cooling, laser and medical equipment cooling, and industrial applications.

[0003] In the prior art, when processing a cold plate, it is necessary to use a clamping device such as a vise to fix the cold plate before processing. When processing multiple different surfaces, the cold plate needs to be removed, rotated to adjust the position, and then fixed and installed to process different surfaces. The processing of multiple different surfaces requires repeating the above scheme multiple times to achieve processing of multiple surfaces of the cold plate. In the process of multiple disassembly and clamping, not only is the operation complicated and the workload large, but the multiple clamping will also cause clamping errors, reduce processing accuracy, and cause clamping, resulting in surface damage of parts, thereby affecting the appearance quality.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new technical solution to improve one or more problems existing in the above solutions. Utility Model Content

[0016] In a possible implementation, the second limiting frame has four limiting slots, and the rotation angles between adjacent limiting slots are all 90°.

[0017] In a possible implementation, there are four limit blocks, and the rotation angles between adjacent limit blocks are all 90°.

[0036] Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, example embodiments can be embodied in many forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete and will fully convey the concepts of the example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The described features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

[0037] In addition, the accompanying drawings are merely schematic illustrations of the present application and are not necessarily drawn to scale. Identical reference numerals in the figures denote identical or similar parts, and thus repetitive descriptions thereof will be omitted. Some of the blocks shown in the accompanying drawings are functional entities that do not necessarily correspond to physically or logically separate entities. These functional entities may be implemented in software, in one or more hardware modules or integrated circuits, or in different networks and / or processor devices and / or microcontroller devices.

[0038] This example embodiment first provides a cold plate multi-surface processing quick change tooling. Figures 1 to 7 As shown in the figure, the tooling for processing multiple surfaces of the cold plate includes a pallet fixture 200, a pressing plate 300, a tooling pallet 400 and a tooling base 500; wherein, the pallet fixture 200 is used to place the cold plate 100 to be processed; the pressing plate 300 is fixedly connected to the pallet fixture 200, and is used to fix the cold plate 100 to be processed on the pallet fixture 200; the tooling pallet 400 is fixedly arranged on the bottom surface of the pallet fixture 200, and has a rotating shaft 420 in the middle of the top surface; the tooling base 500 has a fixing portion 510, and a rotating shaft hole 512 in the middle of the fixing portion 510, and the rotating shaft 420 is rotatably and adjustably connected to the rotating shaft hole 512.

[0039] Through the above-mentioned quick-change tooling for multi-sided processing of cold plates, the cold plate 100 to be processed can be fixed on the pallet fixture 200 through the pressing plate 300, and then the tooling pallet 400 is rotatably connected to the tooling base 500 to meet the processing requirements of multiple surfaces of the cold plate through the processing end on the top of the machine tool without disassembly, thereby greatly improving the processing efficiency and shortening the cold plate processing time from 90 minutes to 48 minutes. At the same time, it avoids the problem of inaccurate cold plate processing and clamping of the cold plate caused by multiple clamping.

[0040] It should be noted that optional, such as Figure 1 As shown, the pressing plates 300 are L-shaped plates, and there are four of them, which are fastened to the tooling tray 400 by bolts, so as to press the cold plate to be processed.

[0041] In one embodiment, the pallet fixture 200 has a first limiting frame 210, which includes a first limiting bar 211 and a second limiting bar 212. The first limiting bar 211 is located on the upper portion of the top surface of the pallet fixture 200, and the second limiting bar 212 is located on the side of the top surface of the pallet fixture 200. The first limiting bar 211 and the second limiting bar 212 are used to limit the position of the cold plate 100 to be processed.

[0042] Optionally, both ends of the first limiting strip 211 have grooves for accommodating the protruding portion of one end of the cold plate.

[0043] In one embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the top surface of the tray fixture 200 has a guide groove 220 to ensure that the cold plate 100 will not be difficult to remove due to the tension of the water at the bottom after processing and flushing.

[0044] Optionally, the bottom of the tray clamp 200 has a holding groove 230 to facilitate the rotation of the tray clamp 200.

[0045] In one embodiment, the top surface of the tooling tray 400 has a second limiting frame 410 , the top surface of the fixing portion 510 has a limiting block 513 , and the second limiting frame 410 is fixedly engaged with the limiting block 513 .

[0046] It should be noted that optional, such as Figure 6 As shown, the second limiting frame 410 is composed of four semi-arc-shaped protrusions, and the four semi-arc-shaped protrusions form a limiting groove.

[0047] Optionally, the limiting groove is V-shaped, which facilitates centering when the limiting block 513 is engaged.

[0048] Optionally, the fixing portion 510 further includes a fixing disk 511 , and the shaft hole 512 and the limit block 513 are both located on the fixing disk 511 . With this embodiment, the position of the processing surface of the cold plate after rotation adjustment can be adjusted by rotating the fixing disk.

[0049] Further, such as Figure 6 As shown, the second limiting frame 410 has four limiting slots, and the rotation angles between adjacent limiting slots are all 90°, so as to adjust the position of the processing surface after the cold plate is rotated and adjusted.

[0050] Furthermore, there are four limit blocks 513 , and the rotation angles between adjacent limit blocks 513 are all 90°.

[0051] It should be noted that, since the rotation angles between the limiting blocks 513 are all 90° and the rotation angles between the adjacent limiting grooves are all 90°, it can be achieved that each time the pallet fixture rotates, one surface of the cold plate 100 to be processed can be aligned.

[0052] In one embodiment, the tooling base 500 further includes: a fixing seat 520 and an auxiliary fixing device 530; one side of the fixing seat 520 is fixedly connected to the fixing part 510, and is used to fix the fixing part 510 on the processing machine tool; the auxiliary fixing device 530 is a pneumatic switch, which is connected to the rotating shaft hole 512, and is used to adsorb the tooling pallet 400 on the fixing part 510 when it is turned on.

[0053] It should be noted that by vertically placing the fixing base 520 on the processing machine, the cold plate is vertically placed on the processing machine. The auxiliary fixing device 530 can be used to firmly fix the tray clamp holding the cold plate 100 to be processed on the tooling base when the cold plate to be processed is heavy.

[0054] In one embodiment, a plurality of connection holes are formed around the top surface of the tray fixture 200 for connecting the pressing plate 300 to the top surface of the tray fixture 200 .

[0055] Optionally, the connection hole is located on the first limiting frame 210 of the tray clamp 200 .

[0056] It should be noted that if Figure 3 As shown, there are A1-A8 connecting holes around the top surface of the pallet clamp 200, and the position of the pressing plate 300 can be replaced according to processing needs. For example, when processing the left and right sides, the pressing plates are installed at A1, A2, A5, and A6 to fix the cold plate 100 to be processed. When processing the lower surface, the pressing plate 300 installed at A5 and A6 is moved to A4 and A7 to fix the cold plate 100 to be processed, thereby avoiding the pressure plate 300 affecting the cold plate processing.

[0057] During processing, the tooling base 500 is placed flat on the processing machine tool, and then the tray clamp 200 is fixed on the tooling base 500 through the tooling tray 400, and the cold plate 100 to be processed is limited in the first limit frame 210 and fixed by the pressing plate 300. The top surface of the cold plate 100 to be processed is processed. After the processing is completed, the tooling base 500 is placed upright on the processing machine tool, and the auxiliary fixing device 530 is opened to prevent the tooling tray 400 from slipping, and then one side of the processed cold plate 100 is processed. After the processing is completed, the auxiliary fixing device 530 is closed, and the tray clamp 200 is rotated 90°, and then the tooling tray 400 is engaged with the tooling base 500, and the auxiliary fixing device 530 is opened to prevent the tooling tray 400 from slipping, and then the other side of the processed cold plate 100 is processed.
