On the contrary, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the disclosure of the present application more thorough and comprehensive. It should be understood that the embodiments of the present application and the specific features in the embodiments are detailed descriptions of the technical solutions of the present application, and are not limitations of the technical solutions of the present application. In the case of no conflict, the technical features in the embodiments of the present application and the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0043] Reference Figure 1The utility model discloses a inner support lower pressure clamp 200 top is used for placing the watch back cover of waiting for processing, namely the product 100 in this article, and the clamp 200 is connected with external gas source through first air pipe 300, second air pipe 400, third air pipe 500 three air pipes. The gas source enters from first air pipe 300, and the inner support lower pressure clamp 200 supports and presses the product 100, and the gas source enters from second air pipe 400 and third air pipe 500, and the inner support lower pressure clamp 200 resets, and loosens the product 100.

[0044] Reference Figure 2 The inner support lower pressure clamp 200 is classified from top to bottom according to different functions, and is roughly classified into clamp tool assembly 201, inner support assembly 202, lower pressure assembly 203 and clamp base assembly 204. The clamp tool assembly 201 is the component for clamping the product, and plays the role of positioning and fixing. The inner support assembly 202 is an actuator, and is used for realizing horizontal movement in four radial directions. The lower pressure assembly 203 is an actuator, and is used for realizing vertical downward pressing action of the clamp in the axial direction. The clamp base assembly 204 is used for bearing the clamp and connecting the component of the machine table.

[0045] Reference Figures 3-4 The clamp tool assembly 201 mainly includes product placing block 5 for positioning the watch back cover, inner support block 6 and pressing block. The inner support assembly 202 mainly includes main body 1, piston 12, wedge head support rod 8 and sliding block 9. The lower pressure assembly 203 mainly includes piston rod 16.

[0046] The axial direction of the clamp mentioned in this article refers to the direction of the center straight line of the product 100, and is also the direction of the center straight line of the clamp, is the direction of the downward pressing of the pressing block, and is also the vertical or perpendicular direction. The radial direction of the clamp refers to the direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the clamp and pointing to the center straight line of the product 100. The horizontal direction in this article is parallel to the radial direction of the clamp. The center axis of the piston rod 16 and the center axis of the wedge head support rod 8 in the utility model coincide with the center straight line of the product.

[0047] The product placing block 5 is arranged at the top of the main body 1 and is used for positioning the product 100. The cylinder chamber is arranged at the bottom of the main body 1, and the main body 1 is fixed with the cylinder body 19 in an up-down mode, so that the cylinder chamber is formed. The piston 12 and the piston part of the piston rod 16 are arranged in the cylinder chamber in an up-down mode, so that the cylinder chamber is divided into three chambers. When the middle chamber is filled with air, the piston 12 is driven to move upward, and the piston rod 16 is synchronously driven to move downward.

[0048] The inner support block 6 and the sliding block 9 form an inner support hand. Of course, in other embodiments, the inner support block 6 and the sliding block 9 can be integrally formed into an inner support hand. The inner support hand extends into the product placing block 5 in the radial direction of the clamp, and specifically, the inner support block 6 of the inner support hand extends into the product placing block 5. The wedge support rod 8 is slidingly and sealingly inserted into the cylinder chamber and connected with the piston 12. A plurality of inner support hands are slidingly installed on the main body 1 in different radial directions of the clamp, and simultaneously contact the top wedge inclined surface of the wedge support rod 8, so as to be supported and opened by the upward movement of the wedge support rod 8, thereby clamping the inner side wall of the watch back cover.

The pressing block is located above the product placing block 5 and connected with the rod part of the piston rod 16, so as to press the watch back cover by the downward movement of the piston rod 16.

[0050] That is, the utility model is equivalent to driving the horizontal inner support and the vertical downward product by two sets of cylinder mechanisms, and the two actions can be synchronously linked but do not affect each other. Compared with the prior art, in the downward process, the inner support hand first supports the inner side wall of the watch back cover, and then continues to move downward to pull the pressing block to press the top of the watch back cover. The clamping force of the utility model on the product is more reliable, and the phenomenon of jamming does not occur. Moreover, because the two cylinder mechanisms are combined to share one air chamber, the air path and pipeline can be simplified, the space structure of the clamp is saved, and the clamp is more compact.

[0064] The gas path structure and principle of the embodiment of the utility model will be introduced below

[0065] Reference Figure 8 , 9 In the embodiment of the utility model, the inner side wall of the cylinder chamber is communicated with the first air hole H1 at the position of the annular notch 191, the inner side wall of the cylinder chamber is communicated with the second air hole H2 at the position of the upper edge, the inner side wall of the cylinder chamber is communicated with the third air hole H3 at the position of the lower edge, and the first air hole H1, the second air hole H2 and the third air hole H3 are respectively connected with the external air source through the stainless steel joint 10 to realize the air inlet control of the three gas chambers. Since the space is limited when the stainless steel joint 10 is installed, the first air hole H1 and the third air hole H3 are designed as a Z-shaped gas path.

[0066] Specifically, the first venting hole H1 is in a "Z" shape, including an upper venting groove extending along the radial direction of the clamp on the upper end surface of the cylinder body 19, a lower extending venting hole extending upward from the groove bottom of the upper venting groove, and a first connecting hole provided on the side wall of the cylinder body 19 and directly communicating with the lower extending venting hole along the radial direction of the clamp. The first connecting hole is a threaded hole, and a stainless steel joint 10 is installed in the threaded hole, and an external air pipe 300 is connected to the stainless steel joint 10.

[0067] Specifically, the second venting hole H2 includes a horizontal venting hole provided in the main body 1 along the radial direction and coaxially communicating, and a second connecting hole. The horizontal venting hole directly communicates with the topmost air chamber of the three air chambers along the radial direction of the clamp. The second connecting hole has a larger diameter than the horizontal venting hole and is a threaded hole penetrating the outer side wall of the main body 1. A stainless steel joint 10 is installed in the threaded hole, and an external air pipe 400 is connected to the stainless steel joint 10.

[0068] Specifically, the third venting hole is in a "Z" shape, including a lower venting groove extending along the radial direction of the clamp on the lower end surface of the cylinder body 19, an upper extending venting hole extending downward from the groove bottom of the lower venting groove, and a third connecting hole provided on the side wall of the cylinder body 19 and directly communicating with the upper extending venting hole along the radial direction of the clamp. The third connecting hole is a threaded hole, and a stainless steel joint 10 is installed in the threaded hole, and an external air pipe 500 is connected to the stainless steel joint 10.

[0069] It can be seen that in the present embodiment, the piston 12 divides the cylinder chamber of the main body 11 into two upper and lower cylinder chambers, and the piston rod 16 divides the cylinder chamber of the cylinder body 19 into two upper and lower cylinder chambers. When the cylinder body 19 and the main body 11 are assembled together, the lower cylinder chamber of the main body 11 and the upper cylinder chamber of the cylinder body 19 communicate to form one air chamber, that is, the piston part of the piston rod 16 in the cylinder body 19 and the piston 12 of the main body 11 merge to form one air chamber, so that the two pistons share one air inlet. When the external air pipe 300 is vented, the air enters the air chamber through the second connecting hole, drives the piston 12 to move upward and the piston rod 16 to move downward, and the wedge head of the piston 12 drives the slide block 9 to move radially outward through the inclined surface of the slide block 9, thereby forcing the slide block 9 to move radially outward, and the piston rod 16 pulls the air cylinder pressing block 2 to press the product pressing block 3 downward, thereby achieving pressing and internal supporting, and clamping the product. Conversely, when the air pipes 400 and 500 are vented, the mechanism resets and releases the product.

[0070] The assembly process of the clamp of the present embodiment is as follows:

[0071] The clamp tool assembly 201 and the internal supporting assembly 202 are connected by positioning with the pin 7 and fixed by the internal hexagonal screw 4. After the protrusion at the bottom of the horizontal fixing part of the internal supporting block 6 is positioned in the groove at the top of the slide block 9 of the internal supporting assembly 203, the internal hexagonal screw 4 is used for fixation.

[0072] The inner support assembly 202 is assembled by first installing the O-shaped sealing ring 14 in the mounting hole of the main body 11, installing the C-shaped sealing ring 131 and the O-shaped sealing ring 14 in the side wall groove and the bottom groove of the piston 12 respectively, then installing the four sliding blocks 9 along the guide groove 101 of the main body 11, assembling the T-shaped inclined convex platform 801 of the wedge head support rod 8 according to the inclined T-shaped groove 901 on the sliding block 9, the wedge head support rod 8 passing through the mounting hole in the middle of the main body 11 and then passing through the middle hole of the piston 12, and finally fixing the assembled parts together by the fixing part 15.

[0073] The down pressing assembly 203 is assembled by first installing the O-shaped sealing ring 17 and the C-shaped sealing ring 13 on the piston rod 16, installing the O-shaped sealing ring 18 and the pin 7 on the upper end face of the cylinder body 19, positioning the cylinder body 19 by matching the pin hole on the bottom plate 20 with the pin 7, and finally passing the piston rod 16 through the middle part of the cylinder body 19, the inner support assembly 202 and the clamp tool assembly 201, and installing the cylinder pressing block 2 and the plug screw 1 on the top of the piston rod 16.

[0074] The clamp base assembly 204 is assembled by first installing the O-shaped sealing ring 18 in the groove on the bottom plate 20, then assembling the four-axis base 24 and the bridge plate 20 together by the pin 22 and the internal hexagonal screw 23, and finally fixing the clamp base assembly 204, the inner support assembly 202 and the down pressing assembly 203 together by the internal hexagonal screw 21, and connecting the stainless steel connector 10.

[0075] The process for processing of the utility model is as follows: the employee clamps the product on the clamp 200, then places the product pressing block 3, manually rotates the cylinder pressing block 2 to the (b) state in the Figure 7 , starts the machine switch, the gas source enters from the air pipe 300, the clamp 200 supports and presses the product; after processing is completed, the gas source enters from the gas path 400 and the gas path 500, the clamp moving mechanism resets, the product is loosened, the employee manually rotates the cylinder pressing block 2 to the (a) state in the Figure 7 , takes out the product pressing block 3, and finally takes down the product.

[0076] This utility model discloses a dual-mechanism linkage internal support pressing clamp for processing the contoured surface of a watch back cover. It offers the following advantages: The internal support clamping mechanism prevents material warping due to internal support, reducing clamping time and increasing the clamp's tolerance. Furthermore, the cylinder chamber is divided into three chambers by a piston rod and piston positioned vertically. The middle chamber is shared by the piston rod and piston. When air is introduced, the piston moves upward and simultaneously drives the piston rod downward. Because the wedge-shaped support rod slides and seals into the cylinder chamber and connects to the piston, multiple internal support arms slide along different radial directions on the main body. These arms simultaneously contact the inclined surface of the top wedge of the wedge-shaped support rod, thus opening and clamping the inner wall of the watch back cover as the wedge-shaped support rod moves upward. Simultaneously, the piston rod slides and seals within the wedge-shaped support rod and extends from the product placement block, connecting to the pressure block located above the product placement block. Therefore, it can move with the piston... The downward movement of the rod presses down on the watch back cover, thus the clamp can simultaneously trigger radial horizontal movement and axial vertical movement. The horizontal inner support restricts the X / Y horizontal degrees of freedom of the product, while the downward pressure restricts the Z-axis degree of freedom. Compared with the prior art, which first supports the inner wall of the watch back cover during the downward movement and then continues to move downward to pull the pressure block to press down on the top of the watch back cover, this utility model can achieve linkage between the inner support and the downward pressure without affecting their respective clamping forces. Moreover, both are driven by cylinders, so the clamping force of this utility model is more reliable and will not cause jamming. Furthermore, because the two cylinder mechanisms are combined and share a single air chamber, the air circuit and pipelines can be simplified, saving space in the clamping structure and making the clamp more compact. The pre-precise positioning of the product placement block in this utility model, combined with the hiding method and position of the inner support block, allows this utility model to improve the accuracy of pre-positioning, increase the clamping force, and prevent product deformation.
