Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of clamping equipment, in particular to a clamping table for fixing a workpiece. Background Art

[0002] Milling machines, grinding machines, drilling machines and other processing equipment generally use a clamping table to fix the workpiece to be processed. In the prior art, the clamping table usually includes a workbench, which is provided with a plurality of T-slots and a clamp that slides and engages with the T-slots. Usually, the clamp only clamps the workpiece in the vertical direction or the horizontal direction, which may cause the workpiece to be forced to move during the processing. The clamp that clamps the workpiece in the vertical direction usually includes a pad, a pressure block located above the pad, and a screw. The workpiece is clamped between the pad and the pressure block, and the screw is used to press the workpiece tightly above the pad. The clamp that clamps the workpiece only in the horizontal direction achieves the fixation of the workpiece by abutting against the edge of the workpiece. For example, the Chinese patent with publication number CN210849972U discloses a T-slot clamp, including a workbench and a T-clamp. The T-clamps are connected by an elastic band, and the elastic band is used to reposition the workpiece. The aforementioned T-slot clamps may have the following issues: 1. The clamp secures the workpiece by interfering with the edge of the workpiece, then wrapping an elastic band around the edge. This means the workpiece may shift during machining due to interference alone. 2. If the workpiece is thin, interfering with the elastic band and clamp results in poor securing.

[0003] In view of this, the present invention proposes a clamping table for fixing a workpiece to solve the above problem. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model overcomes the deficiencies of the above-mentioned technology and provides a clamping table for fixing workpieces.

[0010] Preferably, the lower seat is provided with a third screw hole for threaded connection with the connecting screw, the third screw hole passes through the lower seat in a vertical direction, and the bottom of the connecting screw passes through the third screw hole and is connected to the top of the clamping joint.

[0011] Preferably, the workpiece table is provided with a plurality of mutually parallel T-slots at equal intervals.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0013] 1. The present invention utilizes at least two clamps, with vertical screws pressing the workpiece against the lower seat to secure the workpiece's position vertically. Furthermore, the vertical planes contact the workpiece's edges to secure the workpiece's position horizontally. By securing the workpiece's position in two directions, the workpiece is stably positioned on the workbench, ensuring it will not shift or wobble during subsequent machining, thereby improving machining accuracy.

[0014] 2. The utility model connects the upper seat and the lower seat by connecting bolts. The distance between the upper seat and the lower seat can be adjusted, so that workpieces of different thicknesses can be clamped between the upper seat and the lower seat, which is highly practical.

[0022] The following examples further illustrate the features of the present invention and other related features to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art:

[0023] Reference Figure 1-4 , an embodiment of a clamping table for fixing a workpiece of the present invention is proposed:

[0024] A clamping table for fixing a workpiece 3 comprises a workpiece table 1. The workpiece table 1 is provided with a T-slot 11, and at least two clamps 2 are slidably engaged with the T-slot 11. The clamp 2 comprises a lower seat 21 for supporting the workpiece 3, and a clamping joint 22 for slidably engaging with the T-slot 11 is provided at the bottom of the lower seat 21. An upper seat 23 is connected to the upper side of the lower seat 21 through a connecting mechanism, and a recess 231 for accommodating the edge of the workpiece 3 is provided at the lower end of one side of the upper seat 23, and the inner side of the recess 231 is a vertical plane 232, and the vertical plane 232 is used to contact the edge of the workpiece 3, and the upper seat 23 is provided with a protrusion 233 located above the recess 231, and the protrusion 233 is provided with a fixing screw hole 234 connected to the recess 231, and the fixing screw hole 234 is used to connect a vertical screw 24. The vertical screw 24 is used to press the workpiece 3 tightly against the lower seat 21.

[0025] like Figure 3 As shown, the connection mechanism includes a connecting bolt 25. The upper seat 23 is provided with a first screw hole 236, which vertically extends through the lower seat 21. The lower seat 21 is provided with a second screw hole 211. The connecting bolt 25 is sequentially connected to the first screw hole 236 and the second screw hole 211, thereby connecting the upper seat 23 and the lower seat 21. The distance between the upper seat 23 and the lower seat 21 can be adjusted by the connecting bolt 25, so that the upper seat 23 and the lower seat 21 can clamp workpieces 3 of different thicknesses between them, which is highly practical.

[0026] The connection mechanism also includes a connecting post 26. A through-hole 235 is provided at the center of the upper seat 23 for the connecting post 26 to pass through. The diameter of the through-hole 235 matches the diameter and width of the connecting post 26. A countersunk hole 261 is provided at the center of the connecting post 26, which is connected to the lower seat 21 via a connecting screw 262. The center of the upper seat 23 is connected to the lower seat 21 via the connecting post 26, strengthening the connection between the upper and lower seats 23 and 21, forming a stable support structure that can firmly support and clamp the workpiece 3 during machining, preventing the workpiece 3 from slipping under stress.

[0027] The lower seat 21 is provided with a third screw hole 212 which passes through the lower seat 21 in the vertical direction. The third screw hole 212 passes through the lower seat 21 in the vertical direction. The connecting screw 262 is connected with the countersunk hole 261, the third screw hole 212 and the top of the clamping joint 22 in sequence, so that the connecting column 26, the lower seat 21 and the clamping joint 22 are connected into one. Moreover, the upper seat 23 and the lower seat 21 are connected by the connecting bolt 25, so that the clamp 2 is integrated to avoid the loss of parts.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the workpiece table 1 is provided with a plurality of T-slots 11 parallel to each other at equal intervals, the fixture 2 is detachably connected to the T-slot 11, and the fixture 2 can slide on the T-slot 11 to adjust the position between the fixtures 2 so that the fixture 2 tightly surrounds the workpiece to adapt to workpieces 3 of different shapes and sizes.

[0029] The process of fixing the workpiece 3 of the present invention is as follows: first, install the clamp 2 on the T-slot 11, and slide the clamp 2 so that the clamp 2 tightly surrounds the workpiece 3. Place the workpiece 3 on the lower seat 21, adjust the distance between the upper seat 23 and the lower seat 21 by rotating the connecting bolt 25, and make the vertical plane 232 contact the edge of the workpiece 3, so that the position of the workpiece 3 in the horizontal direction is fixed. Then rotate the vertical screw 24, and the vertical screw 24 presses the workpiece 3 tightly against the lower seat 21, so that the position of the workpiece 3 in the vertical direction is fixed. The fixed workpiece 3 can be processed subsequently. After the processing is completed, rotate the vertical screw 24 so that the vertical screw 24 no longer presses the workpiece 3. Finally, move one of the clamps 2 relative to the T-slot 11 to remove the workpiece 3. The operation is simple.
