Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to devices in the field of mechanical equipment assembly, and in particular to a fastener clamping and fixing device for use in confined spaces. Background Technology

[0002] Bolt and nut fastening is one of the important methods of assembling mechanical equipment parts. When tightening or disassembling bolts and nuts, if a single wrench is used to tighten only the bolt or nut, the nut or bolt that it is paired with will usually rotate together, which will not meet the assembly requirements. Therefore, it is necessary for two people to hold the bolt and nut with one hand or one person to hold two wrenches with both hands to tighten or disassemble the fasteners.

[0003] In actual assembly operations, due to limitations imposed by the structure of the components or their installation location, it is often impossible for two people to work together or for a single person to use two wrenches. Instead, single-person, single-wrench work is the only option, resulting in poor assembly quality, wasted time, and reduced worker efficiency. Therefore, how to achieve single-person, single-wrench work in confined spaces where two-person collaboration is inconvenient, while ensuring assembly quality and improving efficiency, has become an urgent problem to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0004] To enable single-person, single-wrench assembly in confined spaces and improve efficiency while ensuring assembly quality, this invention provides a fastener clamping and fixing device for such spaces. The device uses a clamping mechanism mounted on the upper frame to clamp the components to be assembled in conjunction with the lower frame. A slot in the lower frame positions the nut to be assembled, preventing it from rotating when the worker tightens the bolt. This solves the technical problem of poor assembly quality and low efficiency in confined spaces.

[0005] The solution adopted by this utility model to solve the technical problem is:

[0006] A fastener clamping and fixing device for confined spaces includes an upper frame with an L-shaped structure for installation and support, the short straight section of which has a mounting hole in the vertical direction; a lower frame fixed to the lower end of the long straight section of the upper frame, arranged parallel to the short straight section of the upper frame, and having a first slot and a second slot inside, the second slot being located above the first slot and having a larger size than the first slot; a clamping device assembled inside the mounting hole; a component to be assembled arranged on the upper part of the lower frame, and its vertical position is locked by the clamping device; a nut to be assembled assembled inside the second slot; and a bolt to be assembled passing through the component to be assembled and the lower frame successively, and being assembled and connected to the nut to be assembled; wherein, the size of the first slot is adapted to the thread outer diameter of the bolt to be assembled, allowing the bolt to be assembled to pass through the lower frame; and the size of the second slot is adapted to the parallel side distance of the nut to be assembled, allowing the nut to be assembled to be locked and positioned inside the second slot.

[0007] The clamping device disclosed in this embodiment includes a stop washer fixedly disposed at the lower part of the mounting hole, with a through hole inside that matches the inner diameter of the mounting hole; a rebound spring, one end of which is fixedly disposed at the lower part of the stop washer, and the other end extending vertically downward; and a pin, the top end of which passes through the stop washer and the mounting hole successively, and the bottom end of which is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rebound spring.

[0008] The auxiliary handrail disclosed in this embodiment is fixed on the outer side wall of the upper frame, and the position of the inner side wall of the upper frame is adjusted so that it effectively fits the vertical surface of the component to be assembled.

[0009] The lower frame disclosed in this embodiment can be disassembled and replaced according to the thread outer diameter of the bolt to be assembled and the parallel edge distance of the nut to be assembled, so that the dimensions of the first slot and the second slot are adapted to it.

[0010] Positive effects:

[0011] This invention features an assembly hole on the short, straight section of the upper frame, into which a tightening device is installed. A lower frame is fixed at the lower end of the long, straight section of the upper frame, and a first and second slot of different sizes are provided inside the lower frame. The tightening device engages with the lower frame to lock the vertical position of the components to be assembled. The second slot then positions the nut to be assembled, preventing it from rotating when the worker tightens the bolt. A suitable wrench is then used to tighten the bolt until the assembly requirements are met, enabling single-person, single-wrench assembly in confined spaces. This device is simple and convenient to operate, easy to disassemble and maintain, and lightweight, allowing for portable measurement in confined spaces, effectively improving assembly efficiency. It is suitable as a fastener clamping and fixing device for use in confined spaces. Attached Figure Description
