Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical clamping technology, specifically to a fixed mechanical clamping fixture for machining. Background Technology

[0002] Mechanical fixtures play a crucial role in the machinery manufacturing process. They are devices used to fix the workpiece in place, ensuring that it occupies the correct position during machining or inspection, thereby guaranteeing machining accuracy and operational safety.

[0003] A machining fixture with publication number CN215967588U includes a base with a groove inside. A first motor is installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the groove, and a first threaded column is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor. The advantages of this machining fixture are that, by incorporating a first motor, a first threaded column, a threaded cylinder, a first toothed plate, a second toothed plate, and a gear, the first motor drives the first threaded column to rotate, causing the threaded cylinder to move on the surface of the first threaded column. This causes the threaded cylinder to move the first toothed plate and a connecting block, which in turn causes the connecting block to move a first L-shaped clamping plate. The first toothed plate then drives the gear, which in turn drives the second toothed plate, which in turn drives the second L-shaped clamping plate. This allows the first and second L-shaped clamping plates to move closer together or further apart, facilitating the clamping and fixing of parts of different sizes.

[0004] The existing technology has the following shortcomings: the existing mechanical fixtures cannot be easily adjusted according to the shape and size of the workpiece during the clamping process. When clamping irregularly shaped workpieces, the fixtures are affected by the shape of the workpieces, making it impossible for the fixtures to clamp them stably. Specific fixtures are required to fix them, which increases the processing cost of irregularly shaped workpieces and affects the processing efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a fixed mechanical fixture for machining. The distance between the two support plates can be adjusted by moving the movable rack, the height of the movable plate can be adjusted by moving the movable toothed plate, and the distance between the two clamping plates can be adjusted by rotating the lead screw. This allows the fixture to be adjusted according to the shape and size of the workpiece, so that the fixture can stably clamp and fix workpieces of different shapes and sizes, thereby solving the above-mentioned shortcomings in the technology.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a fixed mechanical clamp for machining, including a fixing mechanism, and further comprising:

[0027] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1 The mechanical clamp for machining shown includes a fixing mechanism 1, a support mechanism 2 disposed on the top of the fixing mechanism 1, and a clamping mechanism 3 disposed on the top of the support mechanism 2.

[0028] To facilitate the clamping of workpieces of different lengths, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the support mechanism 2 includes two support plates 201 respectively disposed at the top ends of the fixing mechanism 1. The clamping mechanism 3 includes movable plates 301 respectively disposed on the top of the two support plates 201. Movable toothed plates 302 are fixedly installed on the bottom of each of the two movable plates 301. A rotating shaft 307 is rotatably installed on the inner wall of the opposite side of each of the two movable plates 301. A third motor 308 is installed on one of the movable plates 301. The third motor 308 drives the rotating shaft 307 connected to its movable plate 301. Mounting plates 309 are fixedly installed on the opposite ends of the two rotating shafts 307. On opposite sides of 09, there are adjusting screws 311. The upper and lower outer walls of the adjusting screws 311 are threaded with clamping plates 312. The height of the movable plate 301 can be adjusted by moving the movable toothed plate 302 up and down inside the support plate 201. The rotation of the adjusting screws 311 can adjust the distance between the two clamping plates 312 at the same end, so that the four clamping plates 312 can clamp and fix the two ends of the workpieces of different sizes. At the same time, the third motor 308 drives one of the rotating shafts 307 to rotate, which can cause the workpiece to flip, so that the workpiece can be processed in different positions conveniently.

[0029] To ensure the stability of the support plate 201 during adjustment, such as Figure 1-3As shown, the fixing mechanism 1 includes a fixing plate 101. A mounting base 102 is fixedly installed at both ends of the bottom of the fixing plate 101. A slide rail 103 is fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the fixing plate 101. Two support plates 201 are slidably connected to both ends of each slide rail 103. A first motor 203 is fixedly installed at the middle of the bottom of the fixing plate 101. The output shaft of the first motor 203 passes through the fixing plate 101 and is located above the fixing plate 101. A rotating gear 204 is fixedly sleeved on the output shaft, and a rack meshes on both sides of the rotating gear 204. 202, each rack 202 is connected to a support plate 201. The fixing plate 101 can install and fix the first motor 203. The operation of the first motor 203 causes the rotating gear 204 to rotate. Through the meshing action between the rotating gear 204 and the movable rack 202, the two movable racks 202 move relative to each other or away from each other on the top of the fixing plate 101, which in turn drives the two support plates 201 to move relative to each other or away from each other on the outer wall of the slide rail 103, thereby stably adjusting the distance between the two support plates 201.

[0030] To ensure the stability of the movable plate 301 during height adjustment, such as Figure 2-4 As shown, the top of the support plate 201 has a storage slot 205 for placing the movable toothed plate 302, and the movable toothed plate 302 is slidably installed in the storage slot 205. A second motor 303 is fixedly installed on one outer wall of the support plate 201. The output shaft of the second motor 303 is fixedly sleeved with a drive gear 304 that meshes with the adjacent movable toothed plate 302. A limiting groove 206 communicating with the storage slot 205 is opened on the side away from the drive gear 304. A telescopic rod 306 is fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the limiting groove 206, and a slider 305 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the telescopic rod 306. 305 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the adjacent movable toothed plate 302 away from the drive gear 304. The storage groove 205 can store the movable toothed plate 302. The second motor 303 works to make the drive gear 304 rotate. Through the meshing action between the drive gear 304 and the movable toothed plate 302, it can move along the inner wall of the storage groove 205. At the same time, the limiting groove 206 and the telescopic rod 306 can limit the movement of the slider 305, so that the movable toothed plate 302 remains stable during the movement, and thus the movable plate 301 remains stable during the height adjustment process.

[0031] To ensure the stability of the clamping plate 312 during adjustment, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, each of the two mounting plates 309 has a mounting groove 310 on its inner wall at one of its opposite ends. Each mounting groove 310 is rotatably connected to an adjusting screw 311. The top and bottom of the inner wall of the mounting groove 310 are movably connected to the outer walls of the two clamping plates 312 at the same end. The mounting groove 310 can install and fix the adjusting screw 311. The rotation of the adjusting screw 311 allows the clamping plates 312 on its top and bottom outer sides to move along the inner wall of the mounting groove 310 on their outer sides, thereby keeping the clamping plates 312 stable during the adjustment process, so that the clamping plates 312 can stably clamp and fix the workpiece.

[0032] When machining a workpiece, the mechanical fixture is mounted on the surface of the machine tool or machining equipment via the mounting base 102. The mechanical fixture is connected to the control equipment of the machining equipment via wiring. The control equipment then activates the first motor 203, driving the rotating gear 204 to rotate. Through the meshing of the gears, the two movable racks 202 move relative to or away from each other on the top of the fixed plate 101, thereby causing the two support plates 201 to move relative to or away from each other on the outer sides of the two slide rails 103. This allows adjustment of the length of the space inside the fixture. Simultaneously, the control equipment activates the second motor 303, driving the drive gear 304 to rotate. Through the meshing of the drive gear 304 and the movable gear plate 302, it moves up and down along the inner wall of the receiving groove 205. Simultaneously, the slider 305 moves along the inner wall of the limiting groove 206, thereby extending or retracting the telescopic rod 306, allowing the movable gear plate 302 to move... The process remains stable, allowing for height adjustment of the movable plate 301. This enables the fixture to be easily adjusted according to the height of the workpiece, ensuring that both ends of the workpiece contact the two mounting plates 309. By rotating the two adjusting screws 311, the top and bottom clamping plates 312 can move along the inner wall of the mounting groove 310 on their outer sides. This allows the two clamping plates 312 at the same end to clamp and fix the outer walls of both ends of the workpiece, enabling the fixture to easily clamp and fix workpieces of different shapes and sizes. Simultaneously, the control device enables the third motor 308 to rotate, causing the rotating shaft 307 to rotate. This allows the mounting plate 309 to rotate the workpiece, facilitating processing at different positions of the workpiece and improving the machining efficiency. This embodiment specifically solves the problem of low machining efficiency caused by the inability of existing mechanical fixtures to easily clamp and fix irregularly shaped workpieces of different shapes and sizes.

[0033] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
