[0027] The power assembly 102 comprises a motor piece 109 fixed on the rear end surface of the base plate 100, and the working shaft of the motor piece 109 is fixedly connected with the rotating disc piece 104;

[0028] The auxiliary expansion clamp has the advantages that the system structure design, the precise motion control and the high-efficiency power transmission are combined;

[0029] The base plate 100 and the mounting plate 101 are connected through high-strength rigid connection to form a stable three-dimensional support frame, which not only provides a deformation-resistant mechanical basis for the expansion operation, but also realizes integrated design of motion guidance and load bearing through the radial slide grooves 107 group on the front end surface of the mounting plate 101, the axis of the slide grooves 107 passes through the center of the rotating disc, so that the expansion rod 105 is always linearly displaced along the preset geometric track during the radial movement, and the friction loss and positioning deviation caused by lateral deviation are eliminated.

[0030] The power assembly 102 adopts the coaxial direct drive structure of the motor piece 109 and the rotating disc piece 104, realizes instantaneous response and linear controllability of power output, and combines the arc-shaped blocks 108 group distributed at equal angles on the periphery of the rotating disc, so that the arc-shaped block 108 profile converts the rotary motion into smooth radial thrust of the expansion rod 105 at the moment of contact, and the thrust curve is smooth and continuous, avoiding damage of impact load to the sheath material.

[0031] The expansion rod 105 array realizes high-precision synchronization under the cooperation of the rotating disc-arc-shaped block 108-slide groove 107, the radial displacement deviation of all expansion rods 105 is small, the sheath is uniformly expanded at all points in the circumferential direction, and the problems of uneven material stretching, local wrinkling or stress cracking caused by expansion are avoided.

[0032] The modular design of the expansion assembly 103 supports quick replacement of rotating discs and expansion rod 105 combinations of different diameter specifications, and through adjustment of the curvature radius of the arc-shaped block 108 and the length of the slide groove 107, the sheath of multiple specifications can be covered.

[0033] The overall structure adopts a composite material scheme of wear-resistant hard alloy and self-lubricating bearing, which can still maintain the stability of the motion pair gap in long-term high-frequency operation, and cooperates with the protective shell and the intelligent overload protection mechanism to significantly improve the service life and operation safety of the equipment.

[0034] The utility model discloses auxiliary expansion clamp passes through the stable connection of base plate 100 and mounting plate 101 and forms rigid support structure, and the coaxial direct drive design of motor piece 109 and carousel piece 104 in power assembly 102 is combined, realizes the high efficiency and operating stability of power transmission, and the flaring assembly 103 ensures the uniformity of circumferential stress in the flaring process, effectively avoids the deformation or damage caused by local stress concentration of the sheath, and the overall structure has compactness and function integration, which can adapt to the expansion demand of different specifications of sheath, greatly improve the operation efficiency through automatic flaring, reduce the manual operation strength, reduce the production cost on the basis of guaranteeing the consistency of flaring quality.

[0035] In the embodiment of the utility model, a plurality of through lifting installation holes 111 are formed on the mounting plate 101, and the plurality of lifting installation holes 111 are arranged equidistantly around the periphery of the carousel piece 104, the flaring assembly 103 further comprises a lifting rod piece 112 installed in the lifting installation hole 111, and the power assembly 102 further comprises a telescopic cylinder piece 113 fixedly arranged on the rear end surface of the base plate 100, the working shaft of the telescopic cylinder piece 113 is fixedly arranged with the lifting rod piece 112, and the lifting rod piece 112 is in abutting cooperation with the inner ring of the sheath.

[0036] The utility model discloses through the collaborative working mechanism of lifting rod piece 112 and telescopic cylinder piece 113, on the basis of radial flaring, the axial expansion dimension is superimposed, the multi-stage composite flaring effect is formed, and the forming precision and structural stability of the complex sheath are significantly improved.

[0037] The concentric layout of the equidistantly distributed lifting installation holes 111 on the mounting plate 101 and the carousel piece 104 forms a spatially staggered mechanical action network of the lifting rod piece 112 and the flaring rod 105, wherein the telescopic cylinder piece 113 pushes the lifting rod piece 112 to accurately lift along the axis of the lifting installation hole 111 through the rigid direct drive mode, after the flaring rod 105 completes radial flaring, the lifting rod piece 112 inserts into the inner ring of the sheath with a preset stroke and applies radial expansion force, and the problem of over-tightness in the sheath material joint process is effectively eliminated through radial multi-directional superimposed expansion.

[0038] The end of the lifting rod adopts involute curved surface design and forms progressive contact with the inner wall of the sheath, and the closed-loop regulation of the cylinder pressure and displacement of the servo control system ensures that the pressure gradient during the expansion process is always lower than the material yield threshold, avoiding the inner wall scratching or tearing.

[0039] The time and space action sequence of the lifting rod and the flaring rod 105 is optimized kinematically, and the cylinder synchronous action is triggered when the carousel rotates to the specified angle, ensuring seamless connection of the two-stage flaring action.

[0040] The modular design of the lifting assembly allows for quick replacement of lifting rods of different diameters. By adjusting the ratio between the cylinder stroke and the radial displacement of the 105-piece flaring rod, adaptive flaring control can be achieved from thin-walled elastomers to thick-walled composite materials. This composite flaring mechanism is particularly suitable for the precision assembly of asymmetrical irregular-shaped leather sleeves.

[0041] In this embodiment of the utility model, the outer wall of the flared rod 105 is provided with a recessed first arc-shaped positioning groove 114. The first arc-shaped positioning groove 114 extends downward from the upper end of the flared rod 105, and a first rounded corner 115 is provided at the junction of the first arc-shaped positioning groove 114 and the upper end of the flared rod 105.

[0042] In this embodiment of the invention, the first arc-shaped positioning groove 114 and the first rounded corner 115 structure provided on the outer wall of the flaring rod 105 significantly improve the positioning accuracy and equipment reliability of the flaring operation through the synergistic optimization of geometric morphology.

[0043] The first arc-shaped positioning groove 114 extends along the axial direction of the flared rod 105 and forms a continuous and close contact with the outer wall of the sleeve. This allows the sleeve material to extend evenly along the groove surface during the flaring process, effectively suppressing the deviation caused by circumferential sliding, eliminating the stress concentration effect of traditional right-angle edges, avoiding indentations or micro-cracks on the sleeve surface when the flared rod 105 moves repeatedly, and reducing the risk of fatigue failure of the rod itself under alternating loads.

[0044] During the flaring stage, the leather sleeve is positioned using the first arc-shaped positioning groove 114.

[0045] In this embodiment of the utility model, the outer wall of the lifting rod 112 is provided with an S-shaped second arc-shaped positioning groove 116. The second arc-shaped positioning groove 116 extends downward from the upper end of the lifting rod 112, and a second rounded corner 117 is provided at the junction of the second arc-shaped positioning groove 116 and the upper end of the lifting rod 112.

[0046] In this embodiment of the invention, the S-shaped second arc-shaped positioning groove 116 and the second rounded corner 117 structure provided on the outer wall of the lifting rod 112 significantly enhance the dynamic stability and material adaptability of the flared opening through biomimetic curved surface design and stress optimization.

[0047] The second arc-shaped positioning groove 116 with continuous S-shaped curvature forms a gradual guide trajectory along the axial direction of the lifting rod 112. Its three-dimensional curved surface structure can guide the inner wall material of the sleeve to flow orderly along the preset path during the lifting process, effectively offsetting the torsional deformation caused by non-expansion, and making the flaring process smoother.

[0048] It is especially suitable for high-precision flaring operations on difficult-to-process leather sleeves such as super-elastic silicone and multi-layer composite materials.

[0049] In this embodiment of the utility model, the inner wall of the lifting rod 112 is provided with a through clearance groove 118, and the outer edge of the turntable 104 is accommodated in the clearance groove 118.

[0050] By setting the clearance groove 118, interference between the lifting rod 112 and the turntable 104 is avoided.

[0051] In this embodiment of the utility model, the turntable 104 is provided with an elastic abutment hole 119, and a ball screw 120 is fixedly installed in the elastic abutment hole 119. A ring of limiting holes 121 are provided at equal intervals on the front end face of the mounting plate 101, and the ball screw 120 is elastically abutted and engaged in the limiting hole 121.

[0052] By using ball screws 120, the position of the mounting plate 101 can be maintained after it is rotated to the predetermined position, making the flaring process more stable.

[0053] In this embodiment of the utility model, rounded corner portions 122 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the flared rod 105, and the rounded corner portions 122 abut against the arc-shaped protrusion 108.

[0054] The abutting engagement between the rounded corner 122 and the arc-shaped protrusion 108 makes the radial flaring sliding of the flaring rod 105 smoother.

[0055] In this embodiment of the present invention, mounting blocks 123 protruding rearward are respectively formed on both sides of the rear end face of the substrate 100.

[0056] This facilitates the mounting, fixing, and circumferential positioning of the substrate 100 on the worktable.

[0057] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
