[0023] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application more clear, the present application is further described in detail below in combination with embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.
[0024] Referring to Figures 1 to 6 , the embodiment includes a C-shaped bracket 1, an anti-skid pad 2, a self-adjusting head 3, a pin 4, a lower swing rod 5, a ball joint 6, a screw rod 7 and a rotating handle 8.
[0025] The C-shaped frame is formed by welding a hollow rectangular tube (an upper top rod) and a C-shaped aluminum piece (a C-shaped support), and a long strip-shaped antiskid pad 2 is bonded to the bottom of the left side (the first section) of the hollow rectangular tube, so as to increase the friction between the C-shaped clamp and the fixed platform and improve the clamping stability.
[0026] A threaded hole is arranged at the bottom end of the C-shaped support 1, and a spherical joint 6, a screw rod 7 and a rotating handle 8 are arranged in the threaded hole. A through hole is arranged at the side edge of the C-shaped support 1, and the through hole is hingedly connected with a lower swing rod 5 through a pin 4. The lower swing rod 5 can freely swing relative to the support, and continuously contacts and supports the spherical joint through the bottom of the lower swing rod. The vertical supporting force of the spherical joint 6 and the screw rod 7 relative to the lower swing rod is transmitted through the rotating handle. A through hole is arranged at the end of the hollow rectangular tube of the C-shaped frame and the lower swing rod 5, and the through hole is connected with a self-adjusting pressure head 3 through the pin 4. The self-adjusting pressure head can freely rotate relative to the support.
[0027] As shown in Figure 1 the utility model discloses a C-shaped support 1, and an antiskid pad 2 is bonded to the bottom of the upper top rod. The self-adjusting pressure head 3 and the lower swing rod 5 are connected to the end and the side edge of the support through pins respectively. The screw rod 7 is screwed into the threaded hole in the right side of the support. The spherical joint 6 and the rotating handle 8 are connected to the upper and lower ends of the screw rod respectively. The spherical joint contacts the bottom of the lower swing rod to form a vertical upward positioning and clamping force.
[0028] As shown in Figure 2 when the workpiece 9 needs to be horizontally positioned, first, the left side position of the upper top rod is placed on the edge of the fixed platform. The end self-adjusting pressure head 3 of the C-shaped support 1 is adjusted to be aligned with the center part of the workpiece. The end self-adjusting pressure head 3 of the lower swing rod 5 is adjusted to be perpendicular to the fixed platform 10. The rotating handle 8 is rotated to increase the force height of the spherical joint 6. Finally, the horizontal positioning of the workpiece is realized.
[0029] As shown in Figure 3 the entire positioning and clamping system includes the gravity from the C-shaped clamp itself, the downward pressure on the end self-adjusting pressure head 3 of the lower swing rod 5, the upward supporting force and horizontal friction force at the antiskid pad 2 of the left end of the upper top rod, and the upward supporting force at the self-adjusting pressure head 3 of the right end of the upper top rod. These different directions and different sizes of forces can make the clamp, the workpiece and the fixed platform reach a relatively stable state after being combined.
[0030] The pin 4 provided in the embodiment is a half tooth bolt-nut assembly.
[0031] It should be noted that the above only describes the preferred application examples of the present application, and is not used to limit the protection scope of the present application. Any technical solution with equivalent replacement or equivalent transformation is within the protection scope of the present application.
