[0026] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application more clear, the specific embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. The examples of these preferred embodiments are illustrated in the drawings. The embodiments of the present application shown in the drawings and described according to the drawings are merely exemplary, and the present application is not limited to these embodiments.
[0027] Here, in order to avoid obscuring the present application by unnecessary details, only structures and / or processing steps closely related to the scheme according to the present application are shown in the drawings, and other details that are not closely related are omitted.
[0028] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The milling machine column workpiece clamp provided by the embodiments of the present application comprises a base 1, a chuck 2, a bearing top plate 3, and two oppositely arranged clamps 4.
[0029] The chuck 2 is fixed on the base 1 and is used to fix the bottom end of the column workpiece 100;
[0030] The bearing top plate 3 is suspended in the air above the base 1 through a connecting vertical rod 31 arranged on the base 1, and the bearing top plate 3 is provided with a column workpiece accommodation opening 30 in the area above the chuck 2, which is used to allow the column body of the column workpiece 100 to pass through the bearing top plate 3;
[0031] The clamp 4 comprises a jaw block 41, a fixed block 42, and a lead screw 43. The fixed block 42 is attached to the bearing top plate 3, and the fixed block 42 is provided with an internal threaded hole corresponding to the lead screw 43. The lead screw 43 passes through the internal threaded hole of the fixed block 42 and is connected to the jaw block 41, which is used to push the jaw block 41 to move towards the column workpiece accommodation opening 30. The two oppositely arranged jaw blocks 41 approach each other to clamp the column body of the column workpiece 100 located between the two jaw blocks 41.
[0032] The use process of the milling machine column workpiece clamp is as follows:
[0033] The column workpiece 100 to be processed is placed into the column workpiece accommodation opening 30 on the bearing top plate 3, and the bottom end of the column workpiece 100 is inserted into the chuck 2 below through the column workpiece accommodation opening 30, and the bottom end of the column workpiece 100 is clamped and fixed by the chuck 2, and then the two clamping jaws 4 are operated respectively to move the two jaw blocks 41 towards each other, and the two jaw blocks 41 gradually approach each other until they abut against the column body of the column workpiece 100 located in the column workpiece accommodation opening 30, and the two jaw blocks 41 can clamp and fix the column body of the column workpiece 100 by cooperating with each other, so that the column workpiece 100 is fixed at both the top and bottom ends, and the column workpiece 100 can be kept in a stable vertical state for subsequent milling and other machining operations on the upper end face.
[0034] Unlike the existing standardized clamps that only fix the column workpiece 100 horizontally in one plane, the column workpiece clamp can fix both the bottom end and the column body of the column workpiece 100, maintain the balance of the force, and prevent the upper end of the column workpiece 100 from deviating during the milling of the upper end face of the column workpiece 100 by the milling machine, thereby avoiding damage to the workpiece due to milling misalignment and ensuring the yield of the column workpiece 100.
[0035] Furthermore, unlike the existing standard clamps that only fix the column workpiece 100 horizontally at a single point, the column workpiece clamp can distribute the applied force on the column workpiece 100, thereby avoiding excessive force on the column workpiece 100 at a single point due to clamping and causing deformation and damage to the surface of the column workpiece 100.
[0036] In combination with Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1, the connecting vertical rods 31 are telescopic rods, and the number of the connecting vertical rods 31 is four, which are arranged around the chuck 2, and the bearing top plate 3 can be lifted or lowered relative to the base 1 through the connecting vertical rods 31. The telescopic rods are used as the connecting vertical rods 31, which can adjust the length of the connecting vertical rods 31 to change the distance between the bearing top plate 3 and the base 1, change the position of the column body of the column workpiece 100 clamped and fixed by the two clamping jaws 4 according to the requirements, and make the two clamping jaws 4 adapt to column workpieces 100 of different heights.
[0037] Specifically, the shape of the column workpiece accommodation opening 30 needs to adapt to the conventional cylindrical column workpiece 100, which is a circular opening with its center axis passing through the center of the chuck 2, and the lead screws 43 in the two clamping jaws 4 are located on the same radial direction of the column workpiece accommodation opening 30. The bearing top plate 3 is parallel to the base 1.
[0038] In combination with Figure 4As shown, a notch 412 is formed on the jaw surface 411 of the jaw block 41 facing the clearance opening 30 of the column workpiece. The notch 412 is a V-shaped continuous folded surface that is concave inward from the jaw surface 411 towards the fixing block 42, that is, away from the clearance opening 30 of the column workpiece. The V-shaped folded surface of the notch 412 can be tangent to the arc surface of the column workpiece 100. When the jaw block 41 clamps the column workpiece 100, the column body of the column workpiece 100 is inserted into the notch 412, which restricts the horizontal displacement of the column body of the column workpiece 100 and improves its stability.
[0039] Furthermore, the notch 412 of the jaw block 41 is provided with anti-slip texture. The anti-slip texture can be formed by knurling process, which can moderately increase the friction between the jaw surface 411 and the column body of the column workpiece 100, and prevent the column body of the column workpiece 100 from sliding relative to each other.
[0040] Similarly, the chuck 2 is a soft-claw chuck with a silicone pad on the claw, which can increase the friction between the claw and the bottom of the column workpiece 100, and the highly elastic silicone material can protect the column workpiece 100 and prevent damage to the surface of the column workpiece 100.
[0041] This utility model embodiment also provides a milling machine, which includes a milling machine worktable 200 and a column workpiece fixture as described above. The base 1 of the column workpiece fixture is provided with a screw groove 10a, and the base 1 of the column workpiece fixture is fastened to the milling machine worktable 200 by screws.

[0043] The above description is only a specific embodiment of this application.
