Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of truck retarder clamps, specifically a clamp for fixing large truck retarders. Background Technology

[0002] Large truck retarders are crucial equipment for ensuring safe vehicle operation. They assist the braking system in effectively controlling vehicle speed, especially in conditions such as downhill driving. Common types include hydraulic retarders, which generate braking force through fluid resistance, providing large and stable braking power; and eddy current retarders, which operate on the principle of electromagnetic induction, offering rapid response and easy control. Retarders significantly reduce the frequency of use of traditional braking systems, lower the risk of brake pad wear and heat fade, improve braking reliability, and ensure driving safety.

[0003] A communication clamp disclosed in CN 2509781374 U uses a clamping seat to stably hold the mounting base on the left or right clamp to achieve stable installation of the communication equipment. Moreover, the front end of the mounting base is provided with at least two hook-shaped bodies, preferably four hook-shaped bodies, which are evenly distributed in two rows and two columns. The same communication equipment is directly connected through several hook-shaped bodies, and multi-point fixation ensures the stability of the connection.

[0004] This communication clamp uses a clamping seat to stably hold the mounting base onto the left or right clamp to achieve stable installation of the communication equipment. However, this clamp can only fix communication equipment of the same size. When the communication equipment is small, the inner side of the clamp cannot fit tightly against the outer side of the communication equipment, resulting in an unstable clamping. Therefore, it needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a clamp for fixing a large truck retarder, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a clamp for fixing a retarder of a large truck, including a first clamp, a second clamp rotatably connected to the inner side of the first clamp, a clamping mechanism provided on the inner side of the second clamp, an adjusting mechanism provided on the outer side of the clamping mechanism, a limit bolt threadedly connected to the inner side of the first clamp, a nut threadedly connected to the outer side of the limit bolt, and the nut fixedly connected to the right side of the back end of the second clamp;

[0007] The clamping mechanism includes a first threaded rod, which is threaded to the inner side of the second clamp. A flexible plate is rotatably connected to the inner side of the first threaded rod. A limit rod is fixedly connected to the outer side of the flexible plate. A rotating disk is fixedly connected to the outer side of the first threaded rod. A size plate is provided on the top of the rotating disk. The size plate is fixedly connected to the top of the outer side of the second clamp.

[0008] Preferably, there are two limiting rods, which are fixedly connected to the outside of the flexible plate. The limiting rods can limit the movement of the flexible plate, making it more stable during movement.

[0009] Preferably, there are two first threaded rods, which are respectively threaded to the inner sides of the first clamp and the second clamp. The position of the soft plate inside the first clamp and the second clamp can be adjusted by the first threaded rods, so that the first clamp and the second clamp can fix retarders of different sizes.

[0010] Preferably, the first clamp and the second clamp have circular holes inside that correspond to the position of the limiting rod, and the limiting rod is slidably connected to the inside of the circular hole, so that the limiting rod can slide inside the first clamp and the second clamp through the circular hole.

[0011] Preferably, the adjustment mechanism includes a fixed frame, which is fixedly connected to the bottom outer side of the flexible plate. A second threaded rod is threadedly connected to the inner side of the fixed frame. The inner side of the second threaded rod is rotatably connected to the outer side of the flexible plate. A threaded plate is threadedly connected to the outer side of the second threaded rod. A sliding rod is fixedly connected to the outer side of the threaded plate. A linkage plate is fixedly connected to the outer side of the sliding rod. The linkage plate is slidably connected to the outer side of the limiting rod.

[0012] Preferably, there are two slide rods, which are fixedly connected to the outside of the threaded plate and slidably connected to the inside of the fixing frame. The slide rods can limit the movement of the threaded plate, making the threaded plate more stable during movement.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a clamp for fixing a large truck retarder, which has the following advantages:

[0014] 1. The clamping mechanism of this large truck retarder fixing clamp has a first threaded rod threadedly connected to the inner side of the second clamp. By rotating the rotating disk, the first threaded rod can be driven to make linear movement in the second clamp, thereby moving the soft plate closer to or away from the large truck retarder, ensuring the uniformity of the clamping force. The soft plate can avoid causing hard damage to the surface of the large truck retarder. The setting of the size plate makes it easy for operators to intuitively understand the current movement size of the soft plate, and facilitates precise adjustment to adapt to large truck retarders of different sizes and specifications.

[0015] 2. The clamp for fixing the large truck retarder, through the set adjustment mechanism, by rotating the second threaded rod, since the second threaded rod is threadedly connected to the threaded plate, and the threaded plate is connected to the linkage plate through the sliding rod, and the linkage plate is slidably connected to the outside of the limit rod, when the second threaded rod rotates, the threaded plate will move along the axial direction of the second threaded rod, thereby driving the linkage plate and the sliding rod to slide on the limit rod. The flexible plate can fix large truck retarders of different sizes, achieving more precise clamping of the large truck retarders. Attached Figure Description

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.

[0023] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0024] This utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0025] Example 1

[0026] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a clamp for fixing a retarder of a large truck, including a first clamp 1, a second clamp 2 rotatably connected to the inner side of the first clamp 1, a clamping mechanism 4 provided on the inner side of the second clamp 2, an adjusting mechanism 3 provided on the outer side of the clamping mechanism 4, a limit bolt 5 threadedly connected to the inner side of the first clamp 1, a nut 6 threadedly connected to the outer side of the limit bolt 5, and the nut 6 fixedly connected to the right side of the back end of the second clamp 2;

[0027] The clamping mechanism 4 includes a first threaded rod 44, which is threaded to the inner side of the second clamp 2. A flexible plate 45 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the first threaded rod 44. A limit rod 41 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the flexible plate 45. A rotating disk 43 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the first threaded rod 44. A size plate 42 is provided on the top of the rotating disk 43. The size plate 42 is fixedly connected to the top of the outer side of the second clamp 2.

[0028] Furthermore, there are two limiting rods 41, which are fixedly connected to the outside of the flexible plate 45. The limiting rods 41 can limit the movement of the flexible plate 45, making the flexible plate 45 more stable during movement.

[0029] Furthermore, there are two first threaded rods 44, which are threaded to the inner sides of the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 respectively. The position of the soft plate 45 inside the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 can be adjusted by the first threaded rods 44, so that the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 can fix retarders of different sizes.

[0030] Furthermore, the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 have circular holes inside that correspond to the position of the limiting rod 41, and the limiting rod 41 is slidably connected to the inside of the circular hole. Through the circular holes, the limiting rod 41 can slide inside the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] Please see Figure 1-4 Furthermore, based on Embodiment 1, the adjustment mechanism 3 further includes a fixed frame 34, which is fixedly connected to the bottom outer side of the flexible plate 45. A second threaded rod 33 is threadedly connected to the inner side of the fixed frame 34. The inner side of the second threaded rod 33 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the flexible plate 45. A threaded plate 35 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the second threaded rod 33. A slide rod 31 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the threaded plate 35. A linkage plate 32 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the slide rod 31. The linkage plate 32 is slidably connected to the outer side of the limiting rod 41.

[0033] Furthermore, there are two slide rods 31. The two slide rods 31 are fixedly connected to the outside of the threaded plate 35, and the two slide rods 31 are slidably connected to the inside of the fixing frame 34. The slide rods 31 can limit the movement of the threaded plate 35, making the threaded plate 35 more stable during movement.

[0034] In actual operation, when this device is used, the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 are put on the outside of the large truck retarder. The limit bolt 5 is rotated so that the limit bolt 5 can rotate inside the nut 6, so that the limit bolt 5 can adjust the distance between the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2. The size plate 42 is set so that the staff can easily observe the distance moved by the first threaded rod 44, so that the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 can fix the large truck retarder.

[0035] When the truck retarder is small, the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 cannot effectively fix the large truck retarder. Rotating the first threaded rod 44 allows the flexible plate 45 to move, enabling the flexible plate 45 to clamp and fix the large truck retarder. When the left and right sides of the flexible plate 45 cannot fit tightly against the large truck retarder, rotating the second threaded rod 33 allows the second threaded rod 33 to move the sliding rod 31 through the threaded plate 35. The sliding rod 31 then moves the limiting rod 41 through the linkage plate 32, which in turn moves the flexible plate 45, allowing the flexible plate 45 to fit tightly against the outside of the large truck retarder, thus improving the clamping effect of the flexible plate 45.

[0036] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.
