Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of knife grinding machine technology, specifically to a knife holder clamping device for a knife grinding machine. Background Technology
[0002] The tool holder clamping device is one of the core components of a knife grinding machine. Its main function is to fix and support the tool, ensuring its stability during the grinding process. It supports the tool and securely fixes it to the holder plate. It can be flexibly adjusted according to the size and shape of the tool to accommodate different types of tools. The design of the tool holder clamping device fully considers humanization, safety, and practicality, making the knife grinding process more convenient and efficient, and greatly improving the service life and machining accuracy of the tool. With this device, the knife grinding machine can better serve the grinding needs of various tools.
[0003] According to Chinese Invention Publication No. CN114290134A, an automatic knife sharpening device is disclosed. 1. In this invention, an automatic knife sharpening structure is adopted. A triangular frame, a sliding column, a sliding sleeve, a knife holder, a sharpening block, and a U-shaped frame are set on the top of the base. At the same time, a drive motor, a rotating disc, a transmission shaft, and an O-shaped guide rail are set between the base and the U-shaped frame. When the limiting stud on the knife holder is unscrewed outward from the locking cylinder on the sliding sleeve, the locking state between the knife holder and the sliding sleeve can be released. The sharpening block with a suitable cutting edge angle can then be adjusted to the top of the knife holder. When the drive motor is powered on, it will drive the rotating disc to rotate. Under the transmission action between the transmission column and the O-shaped guide rail, the sharpening block on the knife holder will swing back and forth horizontally, thereby sharpening the knife body on the clamping plate. This structure can adjust and clamp the knife body and perform automatic sharpening, reducing the workload of the operator, thus comprehensively improving the convenience and efficiency of knife sharpening. 2. In this invention, a self-adjusting clamping structure is adopted. The clamping plate is equipped with a transverse groove, an L-shaped frame, a screw sleeve, a front frame, a second electric hydraulic cylinder, a rubber clamping block, a dual-axis motor, and a double-headed screw. When the dual-axis motor is powered on, it drives the double-headed screw to rotate. Under the transmission action between the double-headed screw and the screw sleeve, the two L-shaped frames slide synchronously inward or outward within the transverse groove of the clamping plate, thereby limiting and clamping both ends of the tool body in the X-axis direction. When the second electric hydraulic cylinder extends outward, it drives the rubber clamping block to move backward, thereby pressing the tool body against the clamping plate along the Y-axis direction. This structure allows for the adjustment and clamping of tool bodies of different sizes, improving the stability of tool body clamping and grinding, and also enhancing the applicability of the grinding device.
[0004] However, there are some issues to consider when implementing the above technical solutions: First, the device only clamps the blade on both sides. During sharpening, the blade may shake due to insecure fixing, causing blade damage and safety accidents. Second, the device rigidly fixes the blade during sharpening. If the force is uneven or vibrated suddenly, the device may not be able to counteract the force, which may also cause blade damage. Utility Model Content

A telescopic rod 308 is provided on the inner side of the slide 307, and a clamping plate 309 is provided on the inner side of the telescopic rod 308. A first slide groove 311 is provided at the front of the slide 307, and a second slide groove 315 is provided at the rear of the slide 307.
[0028] Specifically, the limiting rod 301 is fixedly connected to the grinding base 1, the connecting frame 302 is fixedly connected to the limiting rod 301, the threaded rod 303 is rotatably connected to the connecting frame 302, and a motor 304 is rotatably connected above the threaded rod 303. The motor 304 is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 302 and electrically connected to the controller 2. The lifting frame 305 forms a movable structure with the grinding base 1 through the threaded rod 303. The motor 304 rotates the threaded rod 303 to drive the lifting frame 305 to move up and down to match different sized tools. When disassembling the tools, it is raised to increase space and facilitate operation.
[0029] Specifically, two sets of slide rails 306 are provided. The slide rails 306 and the lifting frame 305 are welded together. The slide frame 307 is slidably connected to the slide rails 306. The slide frame 307 is electrically connected to the controller 2. The slide frame 307 moves back and forth on the slide rails 306, so that the tool moves back and forth in the grinding seat 1 for grinding.
[0030] Specifically, multiple sets of telescopic rods 308 are provided. One end of the telescopic rod 308 is fixedly connected to the slide 307, and the telescopic rod 308 is electrically connected to the controller 2. The other end of the telescopic rod 308 is welded with a clamping plate 309. When the telescopic rod 308 extends, the clamping plate 309 tightens to clamp the tool.
[0031] Specifically, a pad 310 is bonded to the inner side of the clamping plate 309. The pad 310 is sized to match the clamping plate 309. The pad 310 is made of rubber. The rubber pad 310 can increase the friction between the clamps and provide a space for unloading force, so as to avoid damage to the blade caused by uneven force or vibration.
[0032] Specifically, a first slider 312 is slidably connected inside the first slide groove 311. The first slider 312 can be fixed to the slide frame 307 by the first bolt 313.

Then the first bolt 313 is tightened to fix the position and prevent the tool handle from moving forward when grinding.
[0033] Specifically, a second slider 316 is slidably connected to the outer side of the second slide groove 315. The second slider 316 can be fixed to the slide 307 by the second bolt 317. A blade limiting groove 318 is welded on the front of the second slider 316. The second slider 316 moves in the second slide groove 315 to lock the blade limiting groove 318 behind the blade. Then, the second bolt 317 is tightened to fix the position and prevent the tool from moving backward.

Then the hook 320 is connected to the bracket 321 to improve the stability of the knife.
[0035] Working principle: First, the motor 304 rotates the working thread rod 303, driving the lifting frame 305 to move up and down to match different sized tools. It rises when disassembling tools, increasing space for easier operation. Next, the tool is placed under the slide 307, the telescopic rod 308 extends, and the clamping plate 309 tightens, clamping the tool. The rubber pad 310 increases the friction between the clamps and provides stress relief space, preventing damage to the blade caused by uneven force or vibration. Then, the first slider 312 moves within the first groove 311, causing the tool handle limit block 314 to fit against the tool handle. Finally, the first bolt is tightened. 313 is fixed in position to prevent the tool handle from moving forward during grinding. The second slider 316 moves within the second slide groove 315 to lock the blade limiting groove 318 behind the blade. Then, the second bolt 317 is tightened to fix the position and prevent the tool from moving backward. Together with the tool handle limiting block 314, the tool is fixed and stable. At the same time, for tools of different sizes, the elastic strap 319 is wrapped around the tool handle. Then, the hook 320 is connected to the bracket 321 to improve the stability of the tool fixation. After the tool is fixed, the lifting frame 305 descends. Finally, the slide 307 moves back and forth on the slide rail 306, so that the tool moves back and forth within the grinding seat 1 for grinding.
