Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of quenching machine tool accessories, specifically relating to a novel floating platform structure for a quenching machine tool transformer. Background Technology
[0002] In the induction hardening process, in order to ensure that the workpiece is heated evenly, the secondary winding of the transformer of the hardening machine tool and the workpiece inductor must maintain a constant and consistent gap. The floating platform equipped on the traditional Efudi hardening machine tool is designed to achieve this function. It allows the transformer to float slightly in the X and Y axis directions to adaptively compensate for the slight alignment deviations that may occur between the machine tool and the workpiece during the processing.
[0003] However, the existing floating platform structure has obvious defects: First, after frequent operation, its floating mechanism is prone to "dead points" in certain positions due to wear or structural reasons, causing the transformer to jam when moving. This jamming will make it impossible to guarantee the gap between the sensor and the workpiece. At best, it will cause uneven heating temperature of the workpiece, inconsistent quenching hardness and layer depth, seriously affecting product quality; at worst, it may cause the sensor to directly hit the workpiece, resulting in serious electric shock accidents and damaging the expensive sensor and workpiece.
[0004] In addition, the alternative floating platforms available on the market generally have problems such as complex structure and excessive weight, which are not suitable for the Efudi quenching machine tool, which has strict requirements for flexibility and space. Most importantly, the central structure of the traditional floating platform is solid, while the electrical circuit of the quenching machine tool needs to pass through the center of the floating platform, which makes most commercially available floating platforms unusable due to structural incompatibility. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a novel floating platform structure to solve the problems of flexibility, reliability, and central through-hole.
[0006] The specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0007] A novel floating platform structure for a quenching machine tool transformer includes four corner posts and four sliding rods. Each corner post is fixedly connected to one end of two sliding rods. The four corner posts and four sliding rods are arranged in a rectangular shape to form a rectangular frame. Each sliding rod is slidably connected to two sliders. Each sliding rod is fitted with two springs, and the two ends of the springs are fixedly connected to the opposite surfaces of the sliders and corner posts, respectively.
[0008] The middle sections of the slide rods on the left and rear sides are slidably connected to two locking blocks, respectively.
[0009] Furthermore, each of the locking blocks has a screw hole on its end face, which is threadedly connected to a locking bolt, and the end of the locking bolt abuts against the slider.
[0010] Furthermore, each slider is fixedly provided with a fixing seat at its end, and each fixing seat has fixing holes at its four corners.
[0011] Furthermore, the bottom ends of the four sliders on the front and rear sides are all connected and fixed to the floating platform base through a fixing seat, and the top ends of the four sliders on the left and right sides are all connected and fixed to the floating platform work surface through a fixing seat.
[0012] Furthermore, each of the two locking blocks is fixedly provided with a fixing seat 2 at its end, and each fixing seat 2 is also provided with fixing holes at its four corners.
[0013] Furthermore, the locking block on the rear side is connected and fixed to the floating platform base via the second fixing seat, and the locking block on the left side is connected and fixed to the floating platform work surface via the second fixing seat.
[0014] The technical effects achieved by this utility model are as follows:
[0015] This invention utilizes a sliding pair consisting of four sliding rods and eight sliders, along with springs fitted onto the sliding rods, to provide the floating platform with smooth and automatically resetting multi-directional floating capability. This design effectively eliminates the "dead point" problem caused by uneven wear in traditional structures, fundamentally avoiding transformer movement jamming and ensuring the continuity and stability of the quenching process. Furthermore, the floating platform of this invention adopts a rectangular frame layout, the core advantage of which lies in the through space formed in the middle. This design perfectly solves the wiring problem of electrical circuits in quenching machine tools, allowing the wiring to pass through the center of the floating platform without obstruction, without affecting any function of the floating platform, greatly improving the compatibility and practicality of the equipment. Compared with similar products on the market, this structure eliminates the complex guiding mechanism and heavy base, using standard components such as corner posts and sliding rods, making the overall structure more compact and extremely lightweight. This not only reduces manufacturing costs but also makes its configuration on Efudi machine tools more flexible.
[0016] This utility model innovatively features a locking block with a locking bolt. When it is necessary to fix the position of the transformer, the worktable and the base can be quickly locked and fixed by simply rotating the bolt. The operation is simple and the locking is reliable, meeting the needs of different processing conditions. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The attached diagram lists the components represented by each number as follows:
[0020] 1. Angle post; 2. Slide rod; 3. Spring; 4. Slider; 5. Locking bolt; 6. Fixing seat one; 7. Locking block; 8. Fixing seat two; 9. Screw hole. Detailed Implementation
[0021] To make the objectives and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is merely used to describe one or more specific embodiments of this utility model and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by this utility model.
[0022] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a novel floating platform structure for a transformer in a quenching machine tool includes four corner posts 1 and four sliding rods 2. Each corner post 1 is fixedly connected to one end of two sliding rods 2. The four corner posts 1 and the four sliding rods 2 are arranged in a rectangular shape to form a rectangular frame. Each sliding rod 2 is slidably connected to two sliders 4. Two springs 3 are sleeved on each sliding rod 2. The two ends of the springs 3 are fixedly connected to the opposite surfaces of the sliders 4 and the corner posts 1, respectively. Through the sliding pair formed by the four sliding rods 2 and the eight sliders 4, and in conjunction with the springs 3 sleeved on the sliding rods 2, the floating platform provides a smooth and automatically reset multi-directional floating capability for the working surface. This design effectively eliminates the "dead point" problem caused by uneven wear in traditional structures, fundamentally avoids the phenomenon of transformer movement jamming, and ensures the continuity and stability of the quenching process.
[0023] The middle parts of the left and rear slide rods 2 are slidably connected to the two locking blocks 7 respectively.
[0024] Each locking block 7 has a screw hole 9 on its end face. The screw hole 9 is threadedly connected to the locking bolt 5. The end of the locking bolt 5 abuts against the slider 4. By setting the locking block 7 with the locking bolt 5, when it is necessary to fix the position of the transformer, the worktable and the base can be quickly locked and fixed by simply turning the bolt. The operation is simple and the locking is reliable, which meets the needs of different processing conditions.
[0025] Each slider 4 is fixedly provided with a fixing seat 6 at its end, and each fixing seat 6 has fixing holes at its four corners.
[0026] The bottom ends of the four sliders 4 on the front and rear sides are all connected and fixed to the floating platform base through the fixed seat 6, and the top ends of the four sliders 4 on the left and right sides are all connected and fixed to the floating platform work surface through the fixed seat 6.
[0027] Both locking blocks 7 are fixedly provided with fixing seats 2 8 at their ends, and fixing holes are also provided at the four corners of each fixing seat 2 8.
[0028] The rear locking block 7 is connected and fixed to the floating platform base via the second fixing seat 8, and the left locking block 7 is connected and fixed to the floating platform work surface via the second fixing seat 8.
[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When this device is in use, the four sliders 4 on the front and rear sides are connected and fixed to the floating platform base through the fixed seat 6 and the fixed hole, and the four sliders 4 on the left and right sides are connected and fixed to the floating platform worktable surface through the fixed seat 6 and the fixed hole. Then, the floating platform base is connected to the magnetic pole of the quenching machine tool, and the floating platform worktable surface is connected to the transformer of the quenching machine tool.
[0030] During the quenching process, when there is a slight misalignment between the workpiece and the machine tool, the transformer will cause the floating table to move relative to the base. This displacement will be transmitted to the sliders 4 on the left and right sides, causing them to slide along the corresponding slide rods 2, compressing or stretching the corresponding springs 3, thereby realizing the adaptive floating of the table relative to the base in the X and Y directions, ensuring that the gap between the sensor and the workpiece is constant;
[0031] When processing is complete or when a fixed position is required, the locking bolts 5 on the two locking blocks 7 can be tightened respectively. The ends of the locking bolts 5 generate a large frictional force with the slide rod 2, thereby firmly fixing the locking blocks 7 to the slide rod 2. Since the left locking block 7 is fixed to the worktable surface and the rear locking block 7 is fixed to the base, when both are locked, the relative fixation of the worktable surface and the base is indirectly achieved, thus achieving the locking purpose.
[0032] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the field.
