Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a workpiece clamping and adsorption platform for a gantry milling machine tool, belonging to the technical field of clamping equipment. Background Technology

[0002] For surface grinding of sheet metal workpieces, vacuum adsorption platforms or magnetic chucks are usually used as tooling fixtures to fix the workpiece.

[0003] Vacuum adsorption platforms require an additional vacuum generation system, such as a vacuum pump or vacuum generator. Furthermore, the preparation work for clamping workpieces is cumbersome, requiring cleaning of the platform and sealing grooves, filling seals, and checking the vacuum level. Users must also pay close attention to the airtightness of the vacuum lines and the possibility of seal failure due to uneven workpieces. In terms of clamping safety, convenience, and economy, they are inferior to magnetic chucks. Magnetic chucks only work on some magnetic metals and cannot be used on non-magnetic materials. When processing different materials, users need to change between the two types of tooling fixtures mentioned above, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, reducing production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a workpiece clamping and adsorption platform for gantry machining centers.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a workpiece clamping and adsorption platform for a gantry milling machine tool, comprising an adsorption platform body, wherein a first adsorption area and a second adsorption area are symmetrically arranged along the length direction on the top surface of the adsorption platform body; multiple magnetic adsorption grooves are uniformly distributed along the length direction of the adsorption platform body in both the first and second adsorption areas, and the magnetic adsorption grooves are used to fill electromagnetic coils; multiple uniformly distributed vacuum adsorption ports are provided in both the first and second adsorption areas, and a first vacuum air source interface and a second vacuum air source interface are respectively provided at both ends of the side of the adsorption platform body, wherein the multiple vacuum adsorption ports in the first adsorption area are all connected to the first vacuum air source interface, and the multiple vacuum adsorption ports in the second adsorption area are all connected to the second vacuum air source interface.

[0006] Preferably, the top surface of the adsorption platform body is provided with a plurality of sealing grooves extending through its length direction, the plurality of sealing grooves being evenly distributed along the width direction of the adsorption platform body, and the plurality of sealing grooves being used to fill sealing material.

[0007] Preferably, the depth of the sealing groove is equal to the depth of the magnetic groove.

[0008] Preferably, the cross-section of the magnetic groove is rectangular.

[0009] Preferably, the adsorption platform body is made of steel.

[0010] Due to the application of the above technical solution, this utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0011] This utility model discloses a workpiece clamping and adsorption platform for a gantry milling machine. By setting multiple vacuum adsorption ports and a vacuum air source interface on the adsorption platform body for vacuum adsorption, and magnetic suction grooves and electromagnetic coils for electromagnetic adsorption, the vacuum adsorption platform and electromagnetic chuck are integrated into one. Users do not need to change the clamping platform according to the workpiece material, thereby saving the time of changing the platform, improving production efficiency, and reducing the downtime of the equipment.

[0016] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0017] As attached Figure 1-2 As shown, the workpiece clamping adsorption platform for a gantry machining center according to this utility model includes an adsorption platform body 1. In this embodiment, the adsorption platform body 1 is made of steel, and a first adsorption area 11 and a second adsorption area 12 are symmetrically arranged along its length on the top surface of the adsorption platform body 1.

[0018] Multiple magnetic suction grooves 2 are uniformly distributed along the length of the adsorption platform body 1 in both the first adsorption region 11 and the second adsorption region 12. In this embodiment, the cross-section of the magnetic suction groove 2 is rectangular, and the magnetic suction groove 2 is used to fill the electromagnetic coil. The electromagnetic coil can be connected to an external wire, and after being energized, it uses the electromagnetic effect to adsorb metal workpieces, thereby realizing the adsorption of metal plates.

[0019] Multiple uniformly distributed vacuum adsorption ports 3 are provided in both the first adsorption region 11 and the second adsorption region 12. The two ends of the side of the adsorption platform body 1 are respectively provided with a first vacuum air source interface 4 and a second vacuum air source interface 5. The multiple vacuum adsorption ports 3 in the first adsorption region 11 are all connected to the first vacuum air source interface 4, and the multiple vacuum adsorption ports 3 in the second adsorption region 12 are all connected to the second vacuum air source interface 5. By cooperating the first vacuum air source interface 4 with the multiple vacuum adsorption ports 3 in the first adsorption region 11 and the second vacuum air source interface 5 with the multiple vacuum adsorption ports 3 in the second adsorption region 12, the adsorption of non-metallic plates is achieved by vacuum adsorption.

[0020] Multiple sealing grooves 6 extending through the length of the adsorption platform body 1 are provided on the top surface of the adsorption platform body 1. The multiple sealing grooves 6 are evenly distributed along the width direction of the adsorption platform body 1, and all of the multiple sealing grooves 6 are used to fill sealing material. In this embodiment, the sealing material refers to rubber strips or silicone strips. By setting the sealing grooves 6 and filling the sealing grooves 6 with sealing material, the gap between the adsorption platform body 1 and the plate is effectively filled, thereby preventing gas leakage and ensuring the vacuum adsorption effect of the adsorption platform body 1.

[0021] This solution integrates the vacuum adsorption platform and the electromagnetic chuck by setting multiple vacuum adsorption ports 3 and a vacuum air source interface on the adsorption platform body 1, and magnetic suction slots 2 and electromagnetic coils for electromagnetic adsorption. This eliminates the need for users to change the clamping platform based on the workpiece material, thus saving time on platform changes, improving production efficiency, and reducing equipment downtime.

[0022] As a preferred embodiment, the depth of the sealing groove 6 is equal to the depth of the magnetic suction groove 2, which facilitates processing and ensures a flat surface, further improving the adsorption effect.

[0023] The workpiece clamping and adsorption platform described in this application can be applied to various equipment of gantry machining tools, such as the moving platform of gantry grinders, belt grinders, gantry milling machines, and gantry planers. It can also be installed on the fixed platform of slides and saddles to improve clamping efficiency.

[0024] The above are merely specific application examples of this utility model and do not constitute any limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model; all technical solutions formed by equivalent transformation or equivalent substitution fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
