[0025] 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.

[0026] This utility model provides two technical solutions:

[0027] Figures 1 to 4 The first implementation is shown:

[0028] A panel loading fixture for brake shoes includes a base 1, with movable seats 2 symmetrically slidably connected above the base 1. A motion component is installed above the base 1 to drive the two movable seats 2 to move towards each other. Side clamping shells 3 are symmetrically slidably connected to the sides of the two movable seats 2 that are close to each other. Connecting blocks 4 are slidably connected to the inner walls of the side clamping shells 3. A side clamping plate 22 is fixed between the two adjacent connecting blocks 4. A placement cavity 5 for placing stacked brake shoes is formed between the two movable seats 2 and the two side clamping plates 22.

[0029] A fixed shell 6 is fixed above the base 1 between the two movable seats 2. Elastic components are installed above the fixed shell 6 and below the two movable seats 2. The elastic components are used to lift the brake shoes in the placement cavity 5.

[0030] A feeding assembly is installed on the base 1 to press the brake shoe down from the placement cavity 5 and then push the brake shoe out of the placement cavity 5.

[0031] The motion assembly includes a motor 7 fixed above the base 1, a bidirectional screw 8 rotatably connected above the base 1, one end of the bidirectional screw 8 being fixed to the output end of the motor 7, and two movable seats 2 being symmetrically threaded to the outer wall of the bidirectional screw 8.

[0032] Two movable seats 2 are symmetrically provided with movable grooves 9 on their sides that are close to each other. Slide rods 10 are symmetrically fixed in the movable grooves 9. The side clamping shell 3 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the movable groove 9 and to the outer wall of the slide rod 10. Rubber rings 11 are fixed on both sides of the side clamping shell 3 at the positions corresponding to the slide rods 10. The rubber rings 11 are tightly connected to the slide rods 10.

[0033] The elastic component includes a central top plate 12 slidably connected above the fixed shell 6, and mounting grooves 15 are opened on the inner walls below the two movable seats 2. A side top plate 13 is slidably connected above the mounting grooves 15. The tops of the central top plate 12 and the side top plate 13 are both arc-shaped. Several springs 14 are fixed on the inner wall of the fixed shell 6 and the inner wall of the mounting grooves 15. The upper end of the spring 14 located on the inner wall of the fixed shell 6 is fixed to the bottom of the central top plate 12, and the upper end of the spring 14 located on the inner wall of the mounting grooves 15 is fixed to the bottom of the side top plate 13.

[0034] The brake shoe panel loading fixture in this application features an adjustable side clamp 22 and a movable seat 2, which can flexibly adapt to brake shoes of different sizes and shapes. This design solves the problem that the storage mechanism in the prior art is not easy to adjust according to the size of the brake shoe, and improves the versatility and adaptability of the fixture.

[0035] Figure 1The second embodiment is shown. The main difference from the first embodiment is that the feeding assembly includes a first electric push rod 16 fixed above the base 1. A push plate 17 is fixed to the extended end of the first electric push rod 16. The push plate 17 is located below the side clamping plate 22. A bracket 19 is fixed above the base 1. The first electric push rod 16 passes through the bracket 19. A rotating plate 18 is rotatably connected to the top of the bracket 19. A second electric push rod 20 is fixed to the rotating plate 18 directly above the placement cavity 5. A pressure plate 21 is fixed to the extended end of the second electric push rod 20.

[0036] This application automates the feeding process by setting up a feeding assembly, including a first electric push rod 16 and a second electric push rod 20, which are used to push out the brake shoes and press down the brake shoes, respectively. This reduces manual operation and improves production efficiency.

[0037] Working principle:

[0038] First, the brake shoes to be processed are neatly stacked in the placement cavity 5 of the tooling; the brake shoes can be easily placed in by retracting the second electric push rod 20 and rotating the rotating plate 18 away from the top of the placement cavity 5.

[0039] Based on the size of the brake shoe, the positions of the side clamping shell 3 and the moving seat 2 are adjusted to make the placement cavity 5 fit the size of the brake shoe. First, the drive motor 7 rotates the bidirectional screw 8, causing the two moving seats 2 to move in opposite directions. Then, the two side clamping shells 3 are pushed, causing the rubber ring 11 to move on the outer wall of the slide rod 10. Since the rubber ring 11 and the outer wall of the slide rod 10 have a certain friction, it can be ensured that the side clamping shell 3 will not easily shift after moving to the required position. The movement of the side clamping shell 3 will drive the connecting block 4 and the side clamping plate 22 to move, and the placement cavity 5 is adjusted to fit the size of the brake shoe.

[0040] Then, the second electric push rod 20 moves the pressure plate 21 down, pressing the brake shoe out of the placement cavity 5. When the brake shoe is pressed down, the center top plate 12 and the side top plate 13 both move down to compress the spring 14. Then, the first electric push rod 16 extends the push plate 17, thereby pushing the brake shoe out from below the placement cavity 5, completing the panel loading of the brake shoe. Then, the first electric push rod 16 retracts the push plate 17, and the center top plate 12 and the side top plate 13 are reset again under the action of the spring 14.
