Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of corrosion protection for automotive mufflers, and specifically to a corrosion protection clamping fixture for automotive mufflers. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of automotive mufflers, surface anti-corrosion treatment is a crucial step in improving product durability and lifespan. Currently, common surface anti-corrosion methods, such as spraying protective paint, require ensuring uniform coverage of the entire outer surface of the muffler. However, existing tooling has significant drawbacks when clamping the muffler. Typically, the tooling directly clamps the muffler surface, preventing the clamped area from contacting the sprayed material, creating blank areas for anti-corrosion treatment. To treat these blank areas, the conventional approach is to wait for the sprayed area to dry, then readjust the tooling, using clamping components in other locations to clamp the muffler, exposing the previously clamped area for re-spraying. This method is not only cumbersome but also significantly reduces production efficiency.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to design a high-efficiency anti-corrosion clamping fixture for automotive mufflers that can effectively solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0017] The following is a description of the embodiments and appendices. Figures 1-3 The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below.
[0018] Example 1
[0019] A corrosion-resistant clamping fixture for automotive mufflers includes: a frame 1 and two symmetrically arranged clamping assemblies 2. Each clamping assembly 2 includes a rotating rod 21, a connecting piece 22, a pressure block 23, a spring 24, a push rod 25, and a fixing piece 26. The rotating rod 21 is slidably disposed within a guide sleeve 11 of the frame 1 and can rotate within the guide sleeve 11. A top rod 12 is provided on the outer side of the frame 1 to restrict the sliding of the rotating rod 21. The connecting piece 22 is slidably sleeved at the tail end of the rotating rod 21 at intervals. The pressure block 25... A connecting rod 231 is rotatably connected to the upper part of the muffler. The lower end of the connecting rod 231 is rotatably connected to the connecting piece 22. At least two sets of pressure blocks 23 are symmetrically arranged. The fixing piece 26 is fixed on the rotating rod 21 and located between the connecting pieces 22. The spring 24 is sleeved on the rotating rod 21 and located between the left connecting piece 22 and the fixing piece 26. The push rod 25 is threaded on the rotating rod 21 and located to the left of the leftmost connecting piece 22. The outer diameter of the push rod 25 is equal to the inner diameter of the inlet and outlet ports 31 of the muffler.
[0020] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0021] When it is necessary to clamp the muffler 3, the single-sided clamping assembly is deployed. The rotating rod 21, along with its connected front end connector 22, pressure block 23, spring 24, push rod 25, and fixing member 26, are precisely aligned with the muffler's inlet and outlet ports 31 and inserted to an appropriate depth. At this time, the radial displacement of the rotating rod 21 is locked by the top rod 12 on the outside of the frame 1, ensuring its stable position. Because the outer diameter of the push rod 25 fits perfectly with the inner diameter of the inlet and outlet ports, after insertion, the push rod 25 precisely blocks the inlet and outlet ports 31, effectively preventing the anti-corrosion treatment liquid from spraying into the muffler. Next, the operator manually rotates the push rod 25. Due to the threaded structure, the push rod 25 begins to move axially along the rotating rod 21, pushing the leftmost connecting piece 22 to slide along the end of the rotating rod 21. During the rotation of the push rod 25, the connecting piece 22 slides along the end of the rotating rod 21, which in turn drives the pressure block 23 to move outwards via the connecting rod 231. The pressure block 23 smoothly expands towards the inner wall of the muffler 3 until it tightly adheres to the inner wall of the muffler 3, completing the single-sided tightening and fixing action. The clamping assembly on the other side follows the same operating procedure, simultaneously tightening the muffler to achieve stable clamping.
[0022] After clamping, the operator rotates the rotating rod 21. Since the rotating rod 21 can rotate flexibly within the guide sleeve 11 of the frame 1, this rotation causes the clamped muffler 3 to rotate synchronously. At this time, a 360-degree all-around spraying operation can be performed on the side of the muffler, ensuring that every part of the side is evenly covered with anti-corrosion treatment liquid. At the same time, the left and right end faces of the muffler can also be sprayed simultaneously. The entire clamping assembly adopts an innovative method of internal support fixation, abandoning the traditional external clamping mode, effectively avoiding the blank areas of anti-corrosion treatment caused by external clamping, and comprehensively improving the efficiency and quality of anti-corrosion treatment.
[0023] The internal spring 24 serves two purposes: firstly, it buffers and finely adjusts the clamping force; secondly, after the muffler is sprayed, the muffler is released from its tension, and the push rod 25 is rotated outward. The pressure block 25 moves inward under the reverse push of the spring 24 until it is reset and can be removed from the inlet and outlet ports 31.
[0024] As a further preferred embodiment, the connectors 22 are provided in three sets at intervals, the fixing member is located between the left connector 22 and the middle connector 22, the spring 24 is located between the left connector 22 and the fixing member 26, and the pressure block 23 is connected to the connectors 22 respectively through three sets of connecting rods 231; when the push rod 25 pushes the leftmost connector 22, the three sets of connectors 22 can more evenly transmit the thrust through the connecting rods 231 to the pressure block 23, so that the pressure block 23 clamps the muffler more stably from multiple positions.
[0025] As a further preferred embodiment, the frame 1 is provided with a fixing plate 13 on the outside, the top rod 12 is threadedly connected to the fixing plate 13, the rotating rod 21 is provided with an annular groove 211 on the outside, the top rod 12 can be placed downward in the annular groove 211, by rotating the top rod 12, it can be moved downward and embedded in the annular groove 211 on the outside of the rotating rod 21, thereby limiting the radial position of the rotating rod 21 and ensuring the stability of the clamping state.
[0026] As a further preferred embodiment, a rotating plate 212 is fixed to the outer end of the rotating rod 21. The operator can drive the rotating rod 21 to rotate by directly rotating the rotating plate 212, which facilitates the operator to rotate the muffler and achieve uniform spraying on the side.
[0027] As a further preferred embodiment, a rubber sheet 232 is fixed to the outside of the pressure block 23. When the pressure block 23 pushes the muffler tight, the rubber sheet 232 directly contacts the inner wall of the muffler. On the one hand, the rubber sheet 232 can increase the friction between the pressure block 23 and the muffler, making the pre-tightening more secure and preventing the muffler from sliding during the anti-corrosion treatment. On the other hand, the rubber sheet 232 can prevent the pressure block 23 from causing hard damage to the inside of the muffler, thereby improving the product yield.
[0028] The preferred embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make numerous modifications and variations based on the concept of this utility model without creative effort. Therefore, all technical solutions that can be obtained by those skilled in the art based on the concept of this utility model through logical analysis, reasoning, or limited experimentation on the basis of existing technology should be within the scope of protection defined by the claims.
