Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of automation equipment, and particularly relates to a downward pressing mechanism. BACKGROUND

[0002] The downward pressing mechanism is a mechanism for pressing an object to realize pressing test or pressing assembly of the object, and is therefore often applied to production equipment and test equipment. Since the conventional downward pressing mechanism generally drives the pressing plate to lift and descend by a power module to complete pressing of the object, if the surface of the object to be pressed in contact with the pressing plate is a non-planar surface or other surface that cannot be completely attached to the pressing plate, the pressed surface of the object will be unevenly stressed, and thus the object is easily damaged. SUMMARY

[0003] The utility model aims to provide a downward pressing mechanism to solve the technical problem in the background art.

[0004] The downward pressing mechanism comprises a workbench, a support mounted on the workbench, a lifting power module mounted on the support, a lifting frame driven by the lifting power module, and a plurality of hanging piece holes arranged on the lifting frame. Each hanging piece hole is provided with a hanging rod that can lift and descend. The hanging rod is provided with a hanging head for mounting on the hanging piece hole, so that the hanging rod can sag by its own gravity. The lifting frame is provided with a fixing module for fixing the height of the hanging rod.

[0005] When the object with uneven top surface is pressed, the hanging rod is first lowered to contact the top surface of the object by its own gravity, and then the hanging piece is locked by the fixing module. Thereafter, the lifting power module drives the lifting frame to press the top surface of the object.

[0006] Based on the above technical solution, the utility model has the following advantages:

[0007] 1. Before pressing the object, the hanging rod is first lowered to contact the top surface of the object by its own gravity, and then the hanging piece is locked by the fixing module. At this time, the pressure points are evenly distributed on the top surface of the object. Thereafter, the lifting power module drives the lifting frame to lift and descend, thereby evenly pressing the object. Therefore, when the top surface of the object is a non-planar surface, the object can also be evenly pressed, thereby reducing the risk of damage caused by uneven stress.

[0008] 2. Since it can apply uniform downward pressure to items with non-planar top surfaces without the need for a custom-shaped pressure plate, it can be used for items with different top surface shapes, thereby improving the versatility of the application scenarios. In addition, compared to a custom-shaped pressure plate, it can effectively reduce the manufacturing cost of the equipment when pressing down on items of various shapes or when changing the lifting and lowering of items.

[0009] To further optimize the above technical solutions, they can be combined with one or more of the following implementation methods without conflict.

[0010] In some embodiments, an auxiliary plate is provided below the lifting frame. The auxiliary plate has a number of auxiliary holes. The position and number of the auxiliary holes correspond to the position and number of the hanging rods, so that the lower end of each hanging rod can pass through the auxiliary hole at its corresponding position.

[0011] Based on the aforementioned technical solution, the present invention can further achieve the following beneficial effects: enabling the hanging rod to rise and fall more stably by its own weight in a linear motion, thereby making more stable contact with the top surface of the object.

[0012] Traditional fixing modules generally use clamps, cylinders, and lead screws to clamp items with force. Therefore, when fixing the hanging rod, there is a very high chance of damaging the hanging rod. Also, when fixing the hanging rod, the hanging rod may be pushed to move and scratch the items.

[0013] Therefore, in some embodiments, the fixing module includes a control groove disposed in the auxiliary plate, and an elastically deformable airbag tube is disposed in the control groove. One side of the control groove is cut into one side of the auxiliary hole so that a part of the side of the airbag tube passes through one side of the auxiliary hole, and the airbag tube is connected to the air source.

[0014] Based on the aforementioned technical solution, the present invention further achieves the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. After the hanging rod hangs down and contacts the top surface of the item due to its own weight, air is supplied to the air bladder tube through the air source, causing the air bladder tube to expand at the part located in the auxiliary hole. At this time, the expanded part of the air bladder tube will push the hanging rod to stick tightly to the other side of the auxiliary hole, thereby fixing the hanging rod.

[0016] 2. Because air is compressible and the air bladder tube is elastic, the hanging rod has a certain buffer range when and after it is fixed, which can effectively reduce the damage to the hanging rod and prevent the hanging rod from shifting and scratching the items.

[0017] In some implementations, a gap is provided between the auxiliary hole and the hanging rod;

[0018] Based on the technical solutions, the utility model further realizes the beneficial effects:

[0019] 1、In the hanging rod is contacted with the article through the self weight, the hanging rod has the space of displacement (also namely the space of adjusting position), thereby the hanging rod can be contacted with the article more stably;

[0020] 2、When the hanging rod is lifted and lowered through the self weight, the friction between the hanging rod and the air bag pipe can be reduced, thereby the life of the air bag pipe and the hanging rod is improved.

[0021] In some embodiments, the fixing module includes a slide rail and a displacement power module, the slide rail is fixed on the lifting frame, the auxiliary plate is provided with a sliding block sliding on the slide rail, and the displacement power module is used for pushing the auxiliary plate to drive the auxiliary hole to align with or be misaligned with the hanging piece hole, and the displacement power module can be selected from a cylinder module, a lead screw module and other modules that can push the auxiliary plate to move.

[0022] Based on the technical solutions, the utility model further realizes the beneficial effects:

[0023] 1、Optionally, after the hanging rod is contacted with the top surface of the article under the self weight, the displacement power module pushes the auxiliary plate to drive the auxiliary hole to be misaligned with the hanging piece hole, so that the auxiliary hole and the hanging piece hole clamp the hanging rod, thereby the hanging rod is clamped and fixed;

[0024] 2、Optionally, after the hanging rod is pushed to be tightly fixed with the other side of the auxiliary hole at the position where the air bag pipe is inflated, the descending power module drives the lifting frame to rise and reset, at this time, the displacement power module pushes the auxiliary plate to drive the auxiliary hole to be misaligned with the hanging piece hole, so that the auxiliary hole and the hanging piece hole clamp the hanging rod, thereby the hanging rod is further reinforced, so as to avoid the influence of the upward and downward displacement of the hanging rod on the pressing precision and force during the process that the lifting power module drives the lifting frame to lift and press the article.

[0025] In some embodiments, a limiting buffer for contacting the auxiliary plate is installed beside the slide rail.

[0026] Based on the technical solutions, the utility model further realizes the beneficial effects: during the process that the displacement power module pushes the auxiliary plate to drive the auxiliary hole to align with or be misaligned with the hanging piece hole, the auxiliary plate is limited and buffered by the limiting buffer, thereby the auxiliary hole and the hanging piece hole are prevented from being misaligned too much to clamp and damage the hanging rod.

[0027] In some embodiments, a lifting guide column is installed on the workbench, and the lifting frame is provided with a guide sleeve for sleeving and sliding on the lifting guide column.

[0028] Based on the aforementioned technical solution, this utility model further achieves the following beneficial effects: the lifting power module can stably drive the lifting frame to perform lifting activities in a straight line, thereby achieving a more stable application of downward pressure to the object.

[0029] In some implementations, there is a gap between the bottom hole and the support column;

[0030] Based on the aforementioned technical solution, the present invention further achieves the following beneficial effects:

[0031] 1. During the contact period between the support column and the object, provide the support rod with space to adjust its position and tilt, so that the support rod can better contact and adhere to the object;

[0032] 2. When the support rod is raised and lowered, it can reduce the friction between the hanging rod and the airbag tube, thereby improving the life of the airbag tube, spring and support rod. Attached Figure Description
