DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] The utility model will be further explained below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiment.
[0026] Embodiment 1
[0027] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the copper pipe clamp of the main body automatic assembly device in this case includes a seat body 700, a left clamp block 701, and a right clamp block 702. The left clamp block 701 and the right clamp block 702 are in elastic sliding connection with the seat body 700 and are driven to move towards each other under the elastic force. The seat body is provided with a shaped sliding groove. The left clamp block and the right clamp block are in the sliding groove and are in clearance fit to slide relative to each other. As shown Figure 3 As shown, the bottom of the left clamp block 701 and the right clamp block 702 is in the sliding groove to form the sliding connection. The opposite ends of the left clamp block 701 and the right clamp block 702 are arranged with elastic members 706 between the corresponding seat body walls in the sliding direction to form the elastic sliding connection between the left and right clamp blocks and the seat body. Of course, the elastic members can also be arranged between the side of the left and right clamp blocks and the corresponding seat body walls. Under the elastic force of the two elastic members 706, the left clamp block and the right clamp block tend to move towards each other. The elastic member 706 is a common spring.
[0028] The left clamp block 701 and the right clamp block 702 form a storage cavity for arranging the corresponding workpiece. The storage cavity at least has a cavity opening 710 in communication with the outside of the side surface of the left and right clamp blocks. As shown Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, in order to facilitate the clamping of the copper pipe, the opposite ends of the left clamp block 701 and the right clamp block 702 are shaped into arc-shaped grooves to better fit the wall of the copper pipe. Of course, the end surface structure of the left and right clamp blocks can be adaptively changed according to the configuration of the clamped workpiece. For the storage cavity, as the left clamp block 701 and the right clamp block 702 move away from each other, a storage cavity for arranging the copper pipe is formed between the left clamp block 701 and the right clamp block 702. In this case, the storage cavity needs to have a cavity opening 710 in communication with the outside of the side surface of the left and right clamp blocks. As shown Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, in this case, the left side surface of the left clamp block 701 and the right clamp block is reserved with a slot. The aperture surrounded by the two is called the cavity opening 710. When the left clamp block and the right clamp block clamp the copper pipe, the horizontal end of the L-shaped copper pipe 705 extends from the cavity opening 710, and the vertical end of the L-shaped copper pipe extends from the top surface of the left and right clamp blocks.
[0029] In this case, a positioning mechanism is added. The positioning mechanism includes a connecting column 703 and a pushing member 704. The connecting column 703 is in elastic sliding connection with the seat body 700. As shown Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3As shown, the through hole, i.e. the through hole 712, is formed on the seat body 700 in the scheme, and the left and right clamping blocks slide along the length direction of the seat body, the through hole 712 extends substantially along the thickness direction of the seat body 700, the through hole 712 passes below the left and right clamping blocks, the connecting column 703 is inserted into the through hole 712, and the left end of the connecting column 703 extends from the side where the cavity opening 710 is located and the push piece 704 is fixed at the left end, the connecting column 703 and the through hole 712 are clearance fitted to slide relative to each other. The elastic member two 711 is arranged on the connecting column 703 in the through hole 712, such as a spring as the elastic member two, the spring is directly sleeved on the connecting column 703 in the through hole 712, one end of the spring abuts against the convex bead on the connecting column and the other end abuts against the hole wall of the through hole, of course, the end of the spring can also be directly welded and fixed with the connecting column wall or the hole wall of the through hole. Under the elastic force of the elastic member two 711, the connecting column 703 moves and the push piece 704 at the left end of the connecting column 703 moves towards the cavity opening 710, in the process of the push piece 704 moving towards the cavity opening 710, the push piece 704 pushes the lateral end of the copper pipe 705 which protrudes outward at the cavity opening 710, so as to make the copper pipe further move into the storage cavity, so as to realize the adjustment of the position.
[0030] For the push piece, its shape can be selected according to the needs, such as the workpiece is the copper pipe 705 in the example, the lateral end of the copper pipe which protrudes outward at the cavity opening is a circular pipe, and the push piece 704 is a cylinder, which can be directly inserted into the pipe cavity during the movement of the push piece, so as to push the copper pipe to move, of course, the push piece can also adopt a flat plate shape, a triangular shape and the like.
[0031] For the connecting column, it can be a single column body or a plurality of column bodies, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the connecting column in the example is composed of two column bodies, the end of the two column bodies which protrudes outward at the side where the cavity opening is located is connected by a horizontal plate, and the push piece 704 is fixed on the horizontal plate. Of course, a horizontal plate can also be formed at the tail end of the push piece, so that the horizontal plate is connected with the column body of the connecting column, or the push piece is directly connected with the column body. Figure 1 , Figure 2 The push piece is above the connecting column in the example, of course, it can also be arranged at the side of the connecting column according to the needs. The right end of the connecting column can protrude from the side of the seat body opposite to the cavity opening, or be in the through hole, and the like. For example, the right end of the connecting column protrudes outward from the through hole, and a spring can also be sleeved on the right end of the outward protrusion to form an elastic sliding connection by abutting against the end face of the cavity opening.
[0032] In use, the left and right clamping blocks are moved away from each other to separate, the connecting column is pushed to move the pushing piece away from the cavity opening, then the workpiece (such as a copper pipe) is placed in the storage cavity between the left and right clamping blocks, the force driving the left and right clamping blocks to move away from each other is removed, the left and right clamping blocks are driven to move towards each other by the elastic force to clamp the workpiece in the storage cavity, the force driving the connecting column is removed and the connecting column is driven to move by the elastic force, and the pushing piece is simultaneously moved towards the cavity opening to push the part of the workpiece in the cavity opening, so that the workpiece is further moved into the storage cavity to complete positioning, and multiple positioning helps to improve the positioning accuracy of the workpiece.
[0033] To facilitate operation, a guide separation mechanism is added in this example. Specifically, the guide separation mechanism includes a guide column 709 and a top block 707. The left clamping block 701 and the right clamping block 702 are each provided with a column body, i.e., the guide column 709. The top block 707 is arranged at the side of the seat body 700 and is in sliding cooperation with the seat body 700. The top block 707 is provided with a top inclined surface, i.e., the guide inclined surface 708, which extends downward and inclines towards the side. The guide column 709 is in a path of movement on the guide inclined surface 708. In use, when the top block moves upward, the guide inclined surface abuts against the guide column, and the guide inclined surface pushes the guide column to move horizontally during the continuous upward movement of the top block, so as to simultaneously move the left clamping block and the right clamping block away from each other.
[0034] To facilitate operation, a telescopic mechanism 718 is added in this example. In this example, a telescopic cylinder is used as the telescopic mechanism 718. The telescopic mechanism 718 drives the top block to move upward, and then the top block can be reset under the action of gravity or other springs. Of course, a lead screw or a gear and rack can also be used as the telescopic mechanism to drive the top block to move.
[0035] Of course, a telescopic mechanism 714 can also be added. In this example, a telescopic cylinder is used as the telescopic mechanism 714. The moving end of the telescopic mechanism 714 pushes the connecting column 703 to move, and simultaneously moves the pushing piece 704 away from the cavity opening, so as to facilitate the subsequent placement of the copper pipe in the storage cavity. After the moving end of the telescopic mechanism 714 is reset, the connecting column 703 is driven to reset under the elastic force of the spring, and the pushing piece pushes the part of the copper pipe in the cavity opening to move the copper pipe towards the storage cavity. Of course, a lead screw or a gear and rack can also be used as the telescopic mechanism to drive the top block to move.
[0036] In use, the seat body 700 is placed on the turntable 715 according to the common use method of the clamp. In this example, a support column 716 is added to connect the telescopic mechanism 714. Figure 4 、 Figure 5As shown, the middle of the rotating disc 715 is shaped with a hole, the top end of the column 716 passes through the hole in the middle of the rotating disc 715 to form a sleeve joint structure, the rotating disc 715 can rotate relative to the column 716, a fixed plate is installed at the column end of the column 716 above the rotating disc 715, and the telescopic mechanism two 714 is arranged on the fixed plate. The seat body 700 is installed at the side of the rotating disc 715, and an installation hole is formed in the longitudinal direction at the rotating disc 715 at the side of the seat 700, and the top block 707 is arranged at the installation hole and gap-fitted to slide relative to each other. The telescopic mechanism one 718 is installed below the path of the top block moving with the rotating disc, as shown Figure 4 、 Figure 5 As shown, the telescopic mechanism one is below the rotating disc, the positions of the telescopic mechanism one and the telescopic mechanism two are fixed in advance, when the rotating disc 715 is rotated to make the top block 707 in the moving path of the moving end of the telescopic mechanism one 718, the connecting column 703 is simultaneously in the moving path of the moving end of the telescopic mechanism two 714, then the connecting column 703 is driven to move by the telescopic mechanism two 714, the pushing piece moves away from the cavity opening, the moving end of the telescopic mechanism one 718 moves up, and then the top block 707 moves up, and the left and right clamping blocks move away from each other to separate, at this time, the workpiece copper pipe can be placed in the storage cavity between the left and right clamping blocks, the moving end of the telescopic mechanism one 718 resets, the top block 707 moves down, the left and right clamping blocks combine to clamp the workpiece in the storage cavity, the moving end of the telescopic mechanism two 714 resets, the connecting column 703 resets, and the pushing piece moves towards the cavity opening, and then the workpiece copper pipe moves towards the storage cavity, and the rotating disc moves to move the clamped and positioned copper pipe to the next process.
[0037] In order to facilitate the resetting of the top block, a resilient piece three 713 can also be arranged between the rotating disc 715 and the top block 707, for example, a spring is used as the resilient piece three, as shown Figure 4 、 Figure 5 As shown, a groove is formed at the side surface of the top block 707, the resilient piece three 713 is arranged in the groove, the top end of the resilient piece three 713 abuts against the rotating disc 715 and the bottom end abuts against the groove wall, when the top block moves up, the resilient piece three is simultaneously compressed, and when the telescopic mechanism one resets, the resilient piece three pushes the top block to reset. Of course, as common sense, the top block and the rotating disc need to be limited to avoid the top block from moving down and separating from the rotating disc, for example, the hole diameter is limited, the top block 707 is T-shaped as shown Figure 4 、 Figure 5 The length of the horizontal part of the top block 707 is greater than the length of the installation hole to form a limit, or a bolt is screwed into the hole wall of the rotating disc installation hole to limit the downward movement of the top block, and this part can be freely selected.

It should be noted that, for ordinary skilled persons in the art, some improvements and decorations without departing from the principles of the present application are also considered to be within the protection scope of the present application.
