Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machine tool clamping technology, specifically to a machine tool clamping component. Background Technology

[0002] A machine tool is a machine used to manufacture machines; it is also called a machine tool or machine tool machine. A lathe is mainly used to machine the surfaces of rotating bodies, such as cylindrical surfaces, conical surfaces, and threads. It is one of the most widely used machine tools. For example, in a machine manufacturing plant, a lathe can be used to machine various shaft parts. The blank material (such as cylindrical steel) is clamped on the lathe spindle, and by adjusting the position of the cutting tool and the feed rate, a shaft that meets the dimensional requirements can be machined. The diameter, length, and surface finish of the shaft can all be controlled through lathe machining.

[0003] In actual machine tool operation, the clamping assembly plays a crucial role in fixing the workpiece. Most existing clamping assemblies rely on mechanical control for rotation, a traditional method that has significant limitations, lacking convenient manual control and adjustment functions. This results in extremely cumbersome and inconvenient mechanical rotation operations during actual production, especially when fine angle adjustments to the clamping assembly are required, such as in high-precision machining tasks where the positioning angle of the workpiece needs to be extremely accurate. Operators often need to spend a lot of time and effort repeatedly adjusting the mechanical device to achieve the required fine-tuning, which not only reduces machining efficiency but may also introduce human error due to operational complexity, affecting product quality and resulting in poor practicality. Therefore, to solve the above problems, a new machine tool clamping assembly is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-4A machine tool clamping assembly includes a convenient rotating mechanism, a clamping mechanism, and a fixing mechanism. The convenient rotating mechanism includes a mounting plate 1, with a mounting groove 2 inside the mounting plate 1. A fixing rod 3 is fixedly connected inside the mounting groove 2. A motor 4 is fixedly mounted at one end of the fixing rod 3. A rotating shaft 5 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 4. A first electric push rod 6 is fixedly mounted at one end of the rotating shaft 5. A limit plate 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the first electric push rod 6. A mounting frame 8 is provided outside the limit plate 7. A limit groove 9 is opened inside the mounting frame 8. A connecting post 10 is fixedly connected to one end of the limit groove 9. A mounting plate 11 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting post 10. A locking block 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting frame 8. A locking groove 13 is opened inside the mounting plate 1. The limit plate 7 and the limit... The mounting plate 11 is slidably connected to the mounting bracket 8, and the locking block 12 is slidably connected to the locking groove 13. The mounting bracket 8 is located on the front side of the mounting plate 1 and is circular in shape. If micro-rotation of the clamping assembly is required, the first electric push rod 6 in the convenient rotation mechanism is activated first to extend and push the limiting plate 7 to slide in the limiting groove 9 of the mounting bracket 8 until the locking block 12 disengages from the locking groove 13. Then, the mounting bracket 8 can be manually rotated to allow it to rotate. When micro-rotation is not required, the mounting bracket 8 can be rotated to align the locking block 12 with the locking groove 13. The first electric push rod 6 drives the limiting plate 7 to return to its original position, allowing the locking block 12 to re-engage in the locking groove 13, thereby fixing the angle of the mounting bracket 8 and the entire clamping assembly.

[0022] In one aspect of this embodiment, when it is necessary to clamp the workpiece, the clamping mechanism is activated, and the second electric push rod 15 in the groove 14 inside the mounting plate 11 extends, pushing the clamping plate 16 to slide within the groove 14. The four clamping plates 16 move closer to each other, and the rubber pad 17 on one side contacts and clamps the workpiece. The pressure sensor 18 inside the rubber pad 17 can monitor the clamping pressure in real time to accurately control the clamping force. The pressure sensor 18 inside the rubber pad 17 can monitor the clamping force in real time and provide feedback information, so that the clamping force can be accurately controlled. This helps to ensure that the workpiece is firmly clamped when clamping workpieces of different materials and shapes, without damaging the workpiece due to excessive clamping force, thus improving the quality and safety of processing. The anti-slip groove 19 makes the clamping plate 16 clamp the object more firmly and less prone to slippage.

[0023] In one aspect of this embodiment, during installation, the entire clamping assembly is fixed to the corresponding position on the machine tool by a fixing mechanism. Specifically, fixing parts are passed through the fixing holes 21 on the fixing plate 20 to secure the mounting plate 1 to the machine tool.

[0024] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During use and installation, the machine tool clamping assembly is fixed to the corresponding position on the machine tool via a fixing mechanism. Specifically, fixing parts are passed through the fixing holes 21 on the fixing plate 20 to secure the mounting plate 1 to the machine tool. When a workpiece needs to be clamped, the first electric push rod 6 retracts, driving the limit plate 7 back to its original position, causing the locking block 12 to re-engage into the slot 13, thereby fixing the angle of the mounting frame 8 and the entire clamping assembly. The clamping mechanism is then activated. The mounting plate 11 has a groove 14 inside. The second electric push rod 15 extends, pushing the clamping plate 16 to slide in the setting groove 14. The four clamping plates 16 move closer to each other, and the rubber pad 17 on one side contacts and clamps the workpiece. The pressure sensor 18 inside the rubber pad 17 can monitor the clamping pressure in real time so as to accurately control the clamping force. At this time, the motor 4 starts, and the rotating shaft 5 at its output end drives the first electric push rod 6, the limit plate 7, and the connected mounting bracket 8, mounting plate 11 and the clamped workpiece to rotate together. All electrical equipment in this solution is powered by an external power supply.

[0025] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
