Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hydraulic cylinders, in particular to a hydraulic cylinder installation tool. Background Art

[0002] A hydraulic cylinder installation fixture is a tool and device specifically designed to assist in the installation of hydraulic cylinders. Hydraulic cylinders are essential components in hydraulic systems, converting hydraulic energy (pressure and flow) into mechanical energy (force and motion). They are widely used in applications such as construction machinery, automotive, and aerospace. Installation fixtures play a critical role in ensuring the proper installation and use of hydraulic cylinders. They secure the hydraulic cylinder during installation, preventing installation problems caused by movement or misalignment. They precisely adjust the installation position and alignment of the hydraulic cylinder, ensuring proper alignment with other components of the mechanical system (such as the piston rod and hydraulic lines) to reduce friction and wear. They support heavy or large hydraulic cylinders, providing the necessary stability for easy installation and maintenance. They precisely locate the hydraulic cylinder in a machine or equipment, ensuring accuracy and consistency during repeated installations. They are used for post-installation pressure testing to ensure that the hydraulic cylinder operates properly under system pressure and is free of leaks or other issues. Other tools, such as safety covers and protective nets, protect operators during the installation process and prevent accidental injury. Using these fixtures improves the efficiency and accuracy of hydraulic cylinder installation, reduces installation risks, and ensures the long-term stability of the hydraulic cylinder.

[0003] At present, when disassembling and assembling a pneumatic cylinder, the cylinder needs to be clamped on a clamping mechanism. However, some small factories generally use manual clamping. Manual clamping requires the operator to use manual tools (such as wrenches, clamps, etc.) to fix the cylinder. This is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also inconvenient to operate in a small space. It may take multiple adjustments to achieve a suitable clamping position. Therefore, it does not meet the existing needs. We have proposed a hydraulic cylinder installation tool. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present invention provides a hydraulic cylinder installation tool, which has precise positioning capability, which is crucial for the precision requirements in the assembly and processing processes, and ensures the beneficial effect of consistency of product quality. It solves the problem mentioned in the above background technology that when the pneumatic cylinder is disassembled and assembled, the cylinder needs to be clamped on the clamping mechanism, but some small factories generally use manual clamping. Manual clamping requires the operator to use manual tools (such as wrenches, clamps, etc.) to fix the cylinder, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also inconvenient to operate in a small space, and may require multiple adjustments to achieve a suitable clamping position.

[0005] The utility model provides the following technical solution: a hydraulic cylinder mounting tool, comprising a mounting frame, wherein two mounting frames are provided, a driving gear is provided between the two mounting frames, a clamping arm is provided at one end of the mounting frame, and a driving assembly is provided at the other end of the mounting frame, and the driving assembly is used in conjunction with the driving gear.

[0006] As an optional solution for a hydraulic cylinder installation tool described in the utility model, the side of the mounting frame is connected to a first rotating shaft, two first rotating shafts are provided, the sides of the two first rotating shafts are respectively connected to a first gear, and a second gear is provided at the end of the first gear.

[0007] As an optional solution for a hydraulic cylinder installation tool described in the utility model, the drive assembly includes a cylinder body and a cylinder output shaft, the cylinder body is connected to the side of the mounting frame, and the cylinder output shaft is slidably arranged inside the cylinder body.

[0008] As an optional solution for a hydraulic cylinder installation tool described in the utility model, a slide groove is provided on the side of the mounting frame, a slide plate is provided on the side of the mounting frame, a slider is connected to the bottom of the slide plate, and the slider is slidably engaged with the slide groove.

[0012] As an optional solution for the hydraulic cylinder installation tool described in the utility model, a clamping groove is opened on the side of the clamping arm, and a resistance ball is arranged inside the clamping groove.

[0013] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] This hydraulic cylinder installation tooling uses a clamping arm to engage the hydraulic cylinder with the side of the clamping arm. When the cylinder is activated, the cylinder drives the cylinder output shaft to move, which in turn drives the slide and the slider on the side of the slide to slide in the slideway. Simultaneously, a drive gear on the side of the slide meshes with the first gear, and the second gear at the end of the first gear meshes with the third gear. The third gear drives the clamping arm to squeeze and clamp the hydraulic cylinder, moving the output shaft. A complex gear transmission system precisely controls the position of the clamping arm, allowing the hydraulic cylinder to be precisely clamped in the desired position. This precise positioning capability is crucial for precision requirements during assembly and processing, ensuring consistent product quality. It also solves the problem of manually clamping the cylinder during assembly and disassembly. However, some small factories generally use manual clamping, which requires the operator to use hand tools (such as wrenches and clamps) to secure the cylinder. This is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also inconvenient to operate in confined spaces and may require multiple adjustments to achieve the desired clamping position.

[0015] 2. This hydraulic cylinder mounting fixture incorporates a resistance ball. The resistance ball works in conjunction with the hydraulic cylinder to squeeze the hydraulic cylinder during clamping, increasing the clamping force. This additional force provides a more secure clamp, capable of withstanding greater external impacts and preventing the hydraulic cylinder from accidentally loosening or shifting during processing, assembly, or transportation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] Example 1: This example aims to solve the problem that when disassembling and assembling a pneumatic cylinder, the cylinder needs to be clamped on a clamping mechanism. However, some small factories generally use manual clamping. Manual clamping requires the operator to use manual tools such as wrenches and clamps to fix the cylinder. This is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also inconvenient to operate in a small space. It may take multiple adjustments to achieve a suitable clamping position. Please refer to Figure 1-5 A hydraulic cylinder installation tool includes a mounting frame 110. Two mounting frames 110 are provided. A driving gear 120 is provided between the two mounting frames 110. A clamping arm 130 is provided at the end of the mounting frame 110. A driving assembly 140 is provided at the other end of the mounting frame 110. The driving assembly 140 is used in conjunction with the driving gear 120.

[0024] Mounting frame 110 is connected to a side portion of a first rotating shaft 111. Two first rotating shafts 111 are provided, each of which is connected to a first gear 112. A second gear 113 is provided at the end of first gear 112. Drive assembly 140 includes a cylinder body 141 and a cylinder output shaft 142. Cylinder body 141 is connected to a side portion of mounting frame 110, and cylinder output shaft 142 is slidably disposed within cylinder body 141.

[0025] A slide slot 124 is defined on the side of the mounting frame 110. A slide plate 122 is also provided on the side of the mounting frame 110. A slider 123 is connected to the bottom of the slide plate 122, which slides and engages with the slide slot 124. A second rotating shaft 131 is connected to the side of the slide plate 122. Two second rotating shafts 131 are provided. Two drive gears 120 are provided, and the two drive gears 120 are connected to the sides of the two second rotating shafts 131.

[0026] Cylinder output shaft 142 is connected to the side of slide plate 122. A third shaft 132 is connected to the side of mounting bracket 110. A third gear 133 is connected to the side of third shaft 132. Second gear 113 meshes with third gear 133, which is configured as a half gear. Clamping arm 130 is connected to the side of third gear 133.

[0027] In this embodiment: through the setting of the clamping arm 130, the hydraulic cylinder is clamped on the side of the clamping arm 130, and the cylinder is started. The cylinder drives the cylinder output shaft 142 to move, and the cylinder output shaft 142 drives the slide 122 and the slider 123 on the side of the slide 122 to slide in the slide groove 124. At the same time, the driving gear 120 on the side of the slide 122 is engaged with the first gear 112, and the second gear 113 at the end of the first gear 112 is engaged with the third gear 133 for transmission. The third gear 133 drives the clamping arm 130 to squeeze and clamp the hydraulic cylinder, and the cylinder drives the output shaft to move. The position of the clamping arm 130 is precisely controlled through a complex gear transmission system, so that the hydraulic cylinder can be precisely clamped at the required position. This precise positioning capability is crucial for the precision requirements in the assembly and processing processes, ensuring the consistency of product quality. It also solves the problem that the cylinder needs to be clamped on the clamping mechanism when disassembling and assembling the pneumatic cylinder. However, some small factories generally use manual clamping. Manual clamping requires the operator to use hand tools such as wrenches and clamps to fix the cylinder, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also inconvenient to operate in a small space. It may require multiple adjustments to achieve the appropriate clamping position.

[0028] Example 2: This example is intended to solve the problem of loose clamping. This example is an improvement made on the basis of Example 1. For details, please refer to Figure 1-5 A clamping groove 150 is opened on the side of the clamping arm 130, and a resistance ball 151 is arranged inside the clamping groove 150.

[0029] In this embodiment, the resistance ball 151 is provided. The resistance ball 151 cooperates with the hydraulic cylinder to squeeze the hydraulic cylinder during clamping, thereby increasing the clamping force. This additional force makes the clamping more secure, capable of withstanding greater external impacts, and ensures that the hydraulic cylinder will not accidentally loosen or shift during processing, assembly, or transportation.

[0031] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
