[0002] The traditional driving tool cannot be folded, and occupies more than twice the area of the standard tool when the machine tool is changed or stored, resulting in insufficient utilization of the production line space of less than 50%, and frequent disassembly and transportation takes more than 5 minutes per time.
[0003] The fixed clamping structure only supports a single keyway angle (such as 90°, 120°), and custom tools are required for processing non-standard angle workpieces, with an average custom period of 7 days and a cost increase of 30%-200%.
[0004] The single-point driving structure is prone to workpiece slipping (scrap rate > 5%), and an angle deviation of 0.1°-0.5° is generated when the torque is > 80 Nm; the steel buckle is prone to fatigue fracture (service life < 12,000 times) due to repeated bending, and the corrosion of the cooling liquid aggravates the wear, with an average monthly downtime maintenance of 8 hours.
[0005] At the same time, the driving tool cannot be quickly switched, and cannot meet the needs of more workpiece processing, with a small application range.
[0006] Based on this / therefore, a keyway clamping driving tool for machine tool is proposed. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0010] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: base positioning and installation: the base piece is the installation base body of the whole tool, which is used for fixing to the machine tool;
[0011] Storage state: when the tool is not used or needs to be transported and stored, the four rotary position adjusting rods can be folded inward for storage;
[0012] In the storage state, the rotary position adjusting rod is fixed by the buckle piece to prevent it from swinging freely, protecting the adjusting rod and the limiting clamping plate thereon, while significantly reducing the overall profile size of the tool, facilitating storage and avoiding bumps.
[0013] Work preparation deployment and preliminary positioning: when the tool needs to be used, according to the specifications and positions of the keyways of the shaft to be machined by the machine tool, select the corresponding specification of the limiting clamping plate, install it at the end of the rotary position adjusting rod, release the rotary position adjusting rod from the buckle piece and turn it outwards to reach the working position;
[0014] Four all or corresponding position of a locking screw adjustably abuts on the turned out rotary position adjusting rod, locking the rotary position adjusting rod, at this time the limiting clamping plate clamps into the keyway of the shaft to be machined, and the shaft to be machined is stably positioned.
[0015] The base piece includes a base piece body, one end of the base piece body is provided with a connecting column, the other end of the base piece body is provided with a base mounting screw, and four circumferentially distributed avoidance slot areas are opened at the other end of the base piece body. When the rotary position adjusting rod is stored, the limiting clamping plate is clamped inside the avoidance slot area at the corresponding position.
[0016] With the above structure, the main body bears: the base piece body is the core structural component of the entire tool, all other components (buckle piece, limiting piece, rotary position adjusting rod, etc.) are directly or indirectly installed thereon, bearing the structure of the entire tool and transmitting the torque during machining; machine tool connection interface: the connecting column provides a standard or customized interface for quickly and accurately connecting the entire tool to the main shaft, dividing head or other driving devices of the machine tool. This is the main way for the tool to receive the rotary power of the machine tool; the base mounting screw is located at the other end of the base piece body, providing a fixing point for the buckle piece and the limiting piece; four circumferentially distributed avoidance slot areas: storage state space guarantee: when the rotary position adjusting rod is folded down for storage, the limiting clamping plate can be smoothly inserted into the avoidance slot area, achieving compact storage.
[0017] The buckle piece includes an internal screw hole block, which is cylindrical, and is detachably screwed onto the base mounting screw and abuts against the base piece body. The outer edge of the internal screw hole block is provided with four circumferentially distributed flexible clamping plates integrally formed thereon, the flexible clamping plates are C-shaped, both ends of the flexible clamping plates are provided with clamping protrusions integrally formed thereon, and the positions of the flexible clamping plates correspond to the positions of the avoidance slot areas.
[0018] With the above structure, the core of the buckle piece is the internal screw hole block, which is screwed onto the base mounting screw;
[0019] When tightened, the end face of the inner threaded hole block will tightly abut against the end face of the base body, thereby firmly fixing itself at a designated position of the base body and achieving axial positioning;
[0020] Flexible clamping structure: the outer edge of the inner threaded hole block is integrally connected with four circumferentially distributed flexible clamping plates; each flexible clamping plate is C-shaped, which gives it good elastic deformation capability; the positions of the flexible clamping plates accurately correspond to those of the four avoidance slot regions on the base body;
[0021] Storage and locking process: when the rotary position adjusting rod needs to be stored, the limiting clamping plate will fall into the corresponding avoidance slot region; when the rotary position adjusting rod is pressed to the storage position, its shaft or a specific part will press against the clamping protrusions at both ends of the flexible clamping plate;
[0022] The design of the clamping protrusions allows the rotary position adjusting rod to spread apart the C-shaped flexible clamping plate under pressure, causing elastic deformation; once the rotary position adjusting rod is fully in place, the elastic restoring force of the flexible clamping plate will drive the clamping protrusions to rebound and snap onto the corresponding structure of the rotary position adjusting rod, preventing it from popping up or loosening on its own;
[0023] Release process: when the rotary position adjusting rod needs to be used, the operator only needs to exert an upward pulling force on the rotary position adjusting rod; this force will overcome the elastic clamping force of the flexible clamping plate, forcing the clamping protrusions to open again; when the pulling force is sufficient, the rotary position adjusting rod can be pulled out of the clamping protrusions, and the limiting clamping plate will flip out of the avoidance slot region and enter the working state.
[0024] The clamping piece is made of high-elasticity polypropylene plastic through integral injection molding.
[0025] With the above structure, the high elasticity and excellent fatigue resistance of polypropylene plastic are utilized to reliably and durably achieve elastic clamping and release of the rotary position adjusting rod in the storage state.

[0027] With the above structure, installation and axial positioning: the limiting piece body is screwed on the base installation screw through the inner threaded hole column inside it;
[0028] When tightened, the end face of the inner threaded hole column will tightly abut against the end face of the lower installed inner threaded hole block; this stacking installation mode (base piece body → buckle piece → limiting piece) ensures: accurate axial positioning: the limiting piece closely adheres to the buckle piece and the base piece body, eliminating axial gaps; overall rigidity is enhanced: the three are pressed tightly by the base installation screw, forming a stable whole;
[0029] Coaxiality guarantee: ensures that the rotation center of the limiting piece is consistent with the base piece; torque transmission: the cross section of the limiting piece body is spline-shaped; the spline structure provides extremely high torsional stiffness and precise circumferential positioning capability; when the base piece (through the connecting column) receives the machine torque rotation, the torque is transmitted to the spline structure of the limiting piece body through the base installation screw (or the mating surface of the base piece body and the limiting piece); the spline design ensures that the torque is efficiently, without slip, and without angular error, transmitted to the entire limiting piece;
[0030] Hinge and installation of the rotation and position adjustment rod: four circumferentially distributed avoidance gaps are opened at the end of the limiting piece body; the rotation column is screwed in the avoidance gap; hinge point: the rotation column serves as a hinge pin, and the rotation and position adjustment rod is hinged to the rotation column (i.e., there should be a corresponding hole on the rotation and position adjustment rod to accommodate the rotation column); this allows the rotation and position adjustment rod to rotate (adjust the angle) and flip (fold / unfold) around the axis of the rotation column;
[0031] Provide swing space: the avoidance gap provides the necessary swing space for the rotation and position adjustment rod when rotating to adjust the angle and flipping, to avoid interference with the limiting piece body;
[0032] Adjusting rod working space: adjusting rod placement hole: located in the middle position of the four avoidance gaps, it is a larger hole or slot; when the rotation and position adjustment rod is flipped upward to the unfolded working position, the rod portion (especially the root part near the hinge point) can be accommodated in the adjusting rod placement hole; this provides deeper and more stable accommodation space for the adjusting rod, ensuring that it has good support at the root when in the working state (under the driving torque), reducing the cantilever effect, and improving rigidity and stability; at the same time, it is connected with the avoidance gap, facilitating the flipping of the adjusting rod from the folded state;
[0033] Adjusting rod angle locking: four circumferentially distributed screw holes are alternately arranged with the avoidance gaps (i.e., located between adjacent two avoidance gaps);
[0034] Abutting hole: located inside the adjusting rod placement hole (closer to the center axis of the limiting piece), and connected with the adjusting rod placement hole and the avoidance gap;
[0035] Tightening screw: screwed into the corresponding position of the screw hole; locking process: the rotation adjusting rod is rotated (indexing) to the required working angle; the operator tightens the corresponding position of the tightening screw; the tip of the tightening screw passes through the screw hole and abuts against the hole; the screw tip directly and firmly abuts against the root side of the rotation adjusting rod (located in the adjusting rod hole); the huge friction generated by the screw (or possible slight deformation) firmly locks the rotation adjusting rod at the current angle position, preventing it from rotating when transmitting driving torque.
[0036] The rotation adjusting rod includes an adjusting rod body, a hinged connecting rod fixed at the outer edge end of the adjusting rod body, the hinged connecting rod being rotationally arranged on the corresponding position of the rotating column, the thickness of the hinged connecting rod being equal to the width of the avoidance gap, a limiting through hole being formed in the adjusting rod body, a sealing rubber ring being arranged inside the limiting through hole, the included angle between the axis of the limiting through hole and the hinged connecting rod being °, the axis of the limiting through hole being collinear with the axis of the screw hole when the rotation adjusting rod is turned out, an inner screw hole rod being fixed at the end of the adjusting rod body, a limiting clamping plate being detachably screwed at the end of the inner screw hole rod, the diameter of the adjusting rod body being equal to the hole diameter of the abutting hole, the adjusting rod body being clamped on the limiting member body and the inner screw hole rod being clamped inside the corresponding flexible clamping plate when the rotation adjusting rod is accommodated.
[0037] With the above structure, the hinged and turned motion: the rotation adjusting rod is connected with the limiting member through the hinged connecting rod; the hinged connecting rod is rotationally arranged on the rotating column (the rotating column serves as a pin shaft), so that the whole rotation adjusting rod can rotate (angle adjustment) and turn (accommodation / deployment) around the axis of the rotating column;
[0038] The thickness of the hinged connecting rod is equal to the width of the avoidance gap on the limiting member; it is ensured that the hinged connecting rod can smoothly and gaplessly shake when rotating during angle adjustment, improving the adjustment accuracy and working stability;
[0039] Angle adjustment: the operator holds the adjusting rod body, which can be rotated around the axis of the rotating column; the rotation angle range is limited by the surrounding structure (such as the adjacent adjusting rod or the limiting member body), and it is usually freely adjustable within a certain range;
[0040] Angle locking (working state): a limiting through hole is formed in the adjusting rod body; when the rotation adjusting rod is turned up and deployed to the working position and angle adjustment is performed, the axis of the limiting through hole is collinear with the axis of the corresponding screw hole on the limiting member;
[0041] The diameter of the adjusting rod body is equal to the hole diameter of the abutting hole on the limiting member; when the tightening screw is screwed in from the screw hole, the tip thereof will: pass through the abutting hole (the hole diameter is equal to the rod diameter, providing accurate guidance and support); directly and firmly abut against the inner wall of the limiting through hole; the huge friction generated by the tightening screw firmly locks the adjusting rod body at the current angle position, preventing it from rotating around the rotating column when transmitting driving torque;
[0042] Sealing rubber ring: located inside the limiting through hole; mainly plays the role of preventing dust and cooling liquid from entering, protecting the contact surface of the screw and the hole wall, reducing wear and corrosion, and possibly providing slight damping or uniform contact pressure; not the main bearing locking force;
[0043] Limiting clamping plate installation: the end of the adjusting rod body is fixed with an internal threaded rod; the limiting clamping plate is detachably screwed on the end of the internal threaded rod through the self-provided screw rod; a modular interface is provided, which facilitates quick replacement of different specifications of limiting clamping plates according to the size or shape of the workpiece keyway, or replacement after wear;
[0044] Storage state: storage action: the rotary adjusting rod is folded and turned down (or inward) around the rotating column; positioning and clamping: the adjusting rod body is clamped on the limiting member body: the rod body of the adjusting rod body will fall into the adjusting rod hole of the limiting member, and its diameter is equal to the contact hole, which may help to preliminarily position in the hole;
[0045] The internal threaded rod is clamped inside the flexible clamping plate: as the adjusting rod is completely folded in place, the internal threaded rod will be pressed between the clamping protrusions at both ends of the corresponding flexible clamping plate of the clamping member;
[0046] The elasticity of the flexible clamping plate causes the clamping protrusions to clamp the internal threaded rod (the rod diameter matches the spacing between the clamping protrusions), firmly locking the rotary adjusting rod in the storage position;
[0047] The adjusting rod body located in the adjusting rod hole also provides additional positioning and support.
[0048] Compared with the prior art, the keyway clamping driving tool for machine tools has the following advantages:
[0049] The foldable elastic clamping system realizes one-key storage and release of the rotary adjusting rod through the high-elasticity polypropylene clamping member, reduces the storage volume, shortens the state switching time, and greatly improves the storage and operation efficiency.

The front side of the base component 1 is provided with a buckle component 2 and a limiting component 4. Four circumferentially distributed rotation adjustment rods 3 are hinged on the limiting component 4. When the rotation adjustment rods 3 are retracted, they are engaged with the buckle component 2. Four circumferentially distributed set screws 6 are screwed onto the limiting component 4. The set screws 6 are adjustable and abut against the rotate adjustment rods 3 after they are flipped out. The end of the rotate adjustment rod 3 is detachably provided with a limiting engagement plate 5.

[0067] Main body bearing: the base piece body 7 is the core structural part of the whole tool, all other parts (buckle 2, limiting piece 4, rotary position adjusting rod 3, etc.) are directly or indirectly installed on it, bearing the structure of the whole tool and transmitting the torque during machining; Machine tool connection interface: the connecting column 9 provides a standard or customized interface for quickly and accurately connecting the whole tool to the spindle, dividing head or other driving devices of the machine tool. This is the main way for the tool to receive the rotary power of the machine tool; The base installation screw 19 is located at the other end of the base piece body 7, providing a fixed point for the buckle 2 and the limiting piece 4; Four circumferentially distributed avoidance groove areas 8: storage state space guarantee: when the rotary position adjusting rod 3 is folded down for storage, the limiting clamping plate 5 can be smoothly embedded in the avoidance groove area 8, realizing compact storage.

[0102] The elasticity of the flexible clamping plate 11 causes the clamping protrusions 10 to clamp the inner threaded hole rod 24 (the diameter of the inner threaded hole rod 24 matches the spacing between the clamping protrusions), firmly locking the rotary position adjusting rod 3 in the storage position;
[0103] The adjusting rod body 22 located in the adjusting rod placement hole 16 also provides additional positioning and support.

[0116] Lock the storage state: press the rotary position adjusting rod, so that the inner threaded hole rod 24 spreads the clamping protrusions 10 of the flexible clamping plate 11; the clamping protrusions 10 elastically clamp the inner threaded hole rod 24, fixing the adjusting rod; effect: minimizes the size of the tooling, protecting the components from collision.
[0117] III. Working state operation flow
[0118] Release the rotary position adjusting rod: pull the rotary position adjusting rod 3 upwards to make the elastic deformation of the clamping protrusion 10 release the inner threaded hole rod 24; turn the rotary position adjusting rod outward to the working position;
[0119] Adjust the angle and lock: rotate the rotary position adjusting rod 3 to make the limit clamping plate 5 match the workpiece key groove angle;

[0121] Tighten the fixing screw 6, the tip of which penetrates the abutting hole 17 and enters the inner wall of the limit through hole 23 (the diameters are equal to ensure rigid abutment);
[0122] The sealing rubber ring prevents dust and enhances friction;
[0123] Drive the workpiece: the limit clamping plate 5 is embedded in the workpiece key groove;
[0124] Machine tool torque transmission path: base piece (spline anti-torsion) → limit piece → locked rotary position adjusting rod → limit clamping plate → workpiece.
