[0002] In the forging and pressing industry, different specifications of anvils are often required to be replaced according to different workpiece shapes, sizes and processing technology requirements. The connecting structure between the anvil and the movable cross beam of the common forging press is relatively complex, resulting in cumbersome anvil replacement work. Usually, the anvil is first lifted by a large lifting device, and then the fasteners such as bolts are disassembled manually. This disassembly process is very time-consuming and labor-intensive, requiring a large amount of labor time, which affects the forging and pressing production efficiency and continuity. SUMMARY

[0031] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the upper anvil 12 is connected to the lower connecting seat of the forging machine crossbeam 13 by a slot and a tenon. A slot is provided on the lower connecting seat of the crossbeam 13, and the cross section of the slot (along the sliding direction) is a right-angled trapezoid, wide inside and narrow outside. A tenon with matching external dimensions is provided on the top of the upper anvil 12. When the tenon and the slot are matched, one side is connected tightly in the form of a half dovetail groove in the width direction of the slot, and a square hole-shaped gap is left on the other side. A locking mechanism 11 is inserted into the square hole-shaped gap.

[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, the locking mechanism 11 includes two parallel and opposite support plates 1, with an adjustable spacing between the two support plates 1. After the locking mechanism 11 is inserted, the support plates 1 on both sides are expanded so that they abut the crossbeam 13 connecting seat and the upper anvil 12 in the horizontal direction (the width of the slot), thereby filling the horizontal gap left by the engagement of the slot and the tenon, and completing the connection and fixation of the upper anvil 12.

[0035] In the above-mentioned locking mechanism 11, the adjustment mechanism for adjusting the distance between the two support plates 1 includes a first support 3, a second support 5, and a driving rod 6. The driving rod 6 is located between the two support plates 1, and its axis is parallel to the length direction of the support plates 1. A crank 7 is provided at the tail of the driving rod 6. The first support 3 and the second support 5 are sleeved on the driving rod 6, and the distance between the two is adjustable on the driving rod 6. The first support 3 is connected to the support plates 1 on both sides through the connecting rod 4, and the second support 5 is also symmetrically connected to the support plates 1 on both sides through the connecting rod 4. Therefore, as shown in Figure 4 (a) or Figure 4 (b), when the distance between the first support 3 and the second support 5 changes, the two support plates 1 will be driven to expand or close under the drive of multiple connecting rods 4.

[0036] Specifically, combined Figure 3As shown, the drive rod 6 has a threaded section, and the first support 3 has a threaded sleeve inside. The first support 3 is connected to the threaded section, forming a screw drive mechanism. When the drive rod 6 rotates, the first support 3 moves horizontally along the drive rod 6. The second support 5 has a plain sleeve or a bearing inside, and only rotates with the drive rod 6, without axial movement. The corresponding active state is shown in Figure 4(a). Rotating the drive rod 6 moves the first support 3 toward or away from the second support 5.

[0037] The threads on the drive rod 6 are 33° trapezoidal threads. Trapezoidal threads have high root strength and are less susceptible to fracture at high temperatures. Furthermore, the clearance design of the trapezoidal threads allows for sufficient space between the thread pairs to accommodate deformation during thermal expansion, reducing damage caused by thermal stress.

[0038] Referring to Figure 4(a), the trapezoidal structure formed by the four hinge points between the same side support plate 1 and the two supports (marked by light-colored lines in the figure) may cause the support plate 1 to deflect due to the existence of quadrilateral instability. Figure 2 As shown, four springs 2 are evenly distributed at the four corners between the two support plates 1 to ensure force balance between the two support plates 1 and prevent deflection of the support plates 1. The springs 2 also act as a vibration dampener, protecting the inner spacing adjustment mechanism; and provide additional locking force when the threads expand due to heat, preventing them from loosening.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] As shown in Figure 4(b), based on Example 1, the drive rod 6 is equipped with two threaded segments with opposite rotation directions. Correspondingly, threaded sleeves are provided on the inner sides of the first and second supports 3 and 5, respectively acting as screw nuts to mate with the two threaded segments, forming two opposing screw drive mechanisms. Rotation of the drive rod 6 causes the first and second supports 3 and 5 to translate synchronously toward or away from each other.

[0041] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating the orientation or position relationship, are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0042] The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments. Any obvious improvement, replacement or deformation that can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the essential content of the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
