Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machine tool automated loading and unloading fork arm technology, and in particular to a detachable fork arm assembly. Background Technology

[0002] The machine tool automated loading and unloading fork arm is a key component in automated machine tool loading and unloading equipment. It is mainly used to grab and transport workpieces, realize automatic loading and unloading operations in the machine tool processing process, thereby improving production efficiency, reducing labor costs, and improving product quality stability.

[0003] The existing fork arms are not easy to disassemble, and it is not convenient to replace the fork arms according to different product models. Even if there are some fork arms that can be disassembled, the ends of the two fork arms are connected by a key, and the load-bearing capacity of the fork arms is small.

[0004] To address this, we propose a detachable fork arm assembly. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of the existing manufacturing technology, the applicant provides a detachable fork arm assembly in which the first and second fork arms are connected by a T-key and a sliding groove, and further restricted by a connecting block in the first and second grooves, thereby increasing the load-bearing capacity of the fork arm assembly.

[0006] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A detachable fork arm assembly includes:

[0008] First section of the fork arm;

[0009] The second fork arm is detachably connected to the first fork arm.

[0010] The first fork arm has a T-groove on the side near the second fork arm, and a T-key is provided in the T-groove. The second fork arm has a sliding groove on the side near the first fork arm, and the T-key can slide into the sliding groove to connect the first fork arm and the second fork arm.

[0011] The bottom of the first fork arm has a first groove, and the bottom of the second fork arm has a second groove. A connecting block is provided in the first groove and the second groove. One side of the connecting block contacts one side of the first groove but not one side of the second groove, and the other side of the connecting block contacts the other side of the second groove but not the other side of the first groove.

[0012] Its further features are:

[0013] The T-key is connected to the first fork arm by screws.

[0014] Both sides of the connecting block are chamfered to facilitate quick installation.

[0015] The width of the T-key gradually increases from one end to the other, and the width of the groove gradually decreases from one end of the second fork arm inward.

[0016] The connecting block is connected to the first and second fork arms by screws.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0018] This utility model features a compact and reasonable structure, and is easy to operate. A T-shaped key is placed in a T-slot, and then the T-shaped key and the first fork arm are connected by screws. The protruding side of the T-shaped key is then slid into the groove of the second fork arm. When the T-shaped key is fully installed or nearly fully installed in the groove, the first groove of the first fork arm and the second groove of the second fork arm are connected. A connecting block is installed into the first and second grooves, with one side of the connecting block contacting one side of the first groove but not one side of the second groove, and the other side of the connecting block contacting the other side of the second groove but not the other side of the first groove. The connecting block is fixed to the first and second fork arms by screws.

[0019] In addition, this utility model also has the following advantages:

[0020] (1) During disassembly, remove the screws that fix the connecting block to the first fork arm and the second fork arm, remove the connecting block from the first groove and the second groove, move the first fork arm so that the T-key moves outside the slide groove, and the first fork arm and the second fork arm separate; this facilitates quick replacement of the first fork arm according to different products, and the first fork arm is set outside the second fork arm. The fork arm assemblies are used in pairs, and the distance between the two first fork arms is increased, that is, the opening range of the two first fork arms is larger.

[0021] (2) The first and second fork arms are connected by a T-key and a sliding groove, and then the connecting block is set in the first and second grooves to restrict them, which can increase the load-bearing capacity of the fork arm assembly. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] like Figures 1-7 As shown, a detachable fork arm assembly includes a first fork arm 1 and a second fork arm 2, which are detachably connected.

[0032] One side of the first fork arm 1 is connected to one side of the second fork arm 2.

[0033] The first fork arm 1 has a T-slot 101 on the side near the second fork arm 2, and a first groove 102 is provided at the bottom of the first fork arm 1. The T-key 3 is disposed in the T-slot 101 and is detachably connected to the first fork arm 1. One side of the T-key 103 protrudes from the first fork arm 1. The width of the T-key 103 gradually increases from one end to the other.

[0034] In one embodiment, the T-key 3 is connected to the first fork arm 1 by screws.

[0035] The second fork arm 2 is provided with a groove 201 on the side near the first fork arm 1. The width of the groove 201 gradually decreases from one end of the second fork arm 2 inward.

[0036] The bottom of the second fork arm 2 is provided with a second groove 202.

[0037] Both sides of the connecting block 4 are chamfered to facilitate quick installation of the connecting block 4.

[0038] The width of the first groove 102 is greater than the width of the connecting block 4, and the width of the second groove 202 is greater than the width of the connecting block 4.

[0039] During connection, the T-key 3 is placed in the T-slot 101, and then the T-key 3 and the first fork arm 1 are connected by screws. The protruding side of the T-key 3 is then slid into the groove 201 of the second fork arm 2. When the T-key 3 is fully installed or nearly fully installed in the groove 201, the first groove 102 of the first fork arm 1 and the second groove 202 of the second fork arm 2 are connected. The connecting block 4 is installed into the first groove 102 and the second groove 202. One side of the connecting block 4 contacts one side of the first groove 102 but not one side of the second groove 202, and the other side of the connecting block 4 contacts the other side of the second groove 202 but not the other side of the first groove 102. The connecting block 4 is then fixed to the first fork arm 1 and the second fork arm 2 by screws.

[0040] During disassembly, remove the screws that fix the connecting block 4 to the first fork arm 1 and the second fork arm 2, remove the connecting block 4 from the first groove 102 and the second groove 202, move the first fork arm 1 so that the T-key 3 moves outside the slide groove 201, and the first fork arm 1 and the second fork arm 2 separate; this facilitates quick replacement of the first fork arm 1 according to different products, and the first fork arm 1 is set outside the second fork arm 2. The fork arm assemblies are used in pairs, and the distance between the two first fork arms 1 is increased, that is, the opening range of the two first fork arms 1 is larger.

[0041] The first fork arm 1 and the second fork arm 2 are connected by a T-key 3 and a slide groove 201. The connecting block 4 is set in the first groove 102 and the second groove 202 to restrict the load, which can increase the load-bearing capacity of the fork arm assembly.

[0042] The above description is an explanation of the present utility model and not a limitation thereof. The scope of the present utility model is defined by the claims. Within the protection scope of the present utility model, any form of modification may be made.
