Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cutting tool testing technology, and in particular to a clamp for mounting a tool holder. Background Technology

[0002] Cutting tools need to be inspected during the manufacturing process. In order to make it easier to inspect the cutting tools during the machine setup, it is necessary to clamp the cutting tools along with the BT tool holder. Therefore, a fixture is needed to clamp the tool holder, that is, to place the tool holder and the cutting tool together on the cutting tool inspection instrument. The previous design of the cutting tool inspection instrument placed the tool holder on a standard V-block. The contact between the tool holder and the V-block was a line contact, with a large contact area, which increased the rotational friction. Consequently, the high friction made it inconvenient to rotate.

[0003] A search revealed a patent: a clamp for holding a tool holder (CN214418620U). The clamp includes a U-shaped support block mounted on a worktable and V-shaped clamping blocks at both ends of the top of the U-shaped support block. The top of the U-shaped support block is clamped to the bar stock via the V-shaped clamping blocks, and the circumferential side of the bar stock makes point contact with the circumferential side of the tool holder. While this structure is adjustable, the adjustment efficiency is reduced, and it is inconvenient.

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings, the designer actively researched and innovated in order to create a new type of clamp for holding tool holders, which would make it more valuable for industrial use. Utility Model Content

A left vertical support block and a right vertical support block are connected to the left and right sides of the transverse support block, respectively. A left V-shaped clamping block and a right V-shaped clamping block are connected to the top of the left and right vertical support blocks, respectively. A bar stock is connected to each of the left and right V-shaped clamping blocks, and the circumferential side of the bar stock makes point contact with the circumferential side of the tool holder. An adjusting connecting fixing block is connected to the left side of the transverse support block. A slide rail is connected to the adjusting connecting fixing block, and a moving block is connected to the slide rail. A left vertical support block that moves synchronously with the moving block is connected to the moving block. A locking component for locking the left vertical support block is connected to the transverse support block.

[0008] Preferably, in the clamp for mounting a tool holder, the transverse support block has a convex structure, and the right vertical support block is bolted to the recess of the transverse support block of the convex structure.

[0009] Preferably, in the clamp for holding a tool holder, the slide rail is equipped with a movable rack, the movable block is connected to an adjusting rod, and the adjusting rod is connected to a gear that meshes with the movable rack.

[0010] Preferably, in the clamp for mounting a tool holder, the adjusting connecting fixing block has an L-shaped structure and a scale is engraved on the adjusting connecting fixing block.

[0011] Preferably, in the clamp for holding a tool holder, the locking assembly includes a locking fixing plate connected to a transverse support block. A guide sliding hole is provided at the central axis of the locking fixing plate, and a guide groove is provided on the locking fixing plate opposite to the guide sliding hole. A left vertical support block is slidably connected to the guide groove, and a locking bolt is slidably connected to the guide sliding hole. One end of the locking bolt passes through the guide sliding hole and is screwed into the screw hole of the left vertical support block.

[0012] By means of the above solution, this utility model has at least the following advantages:

[0013] 1. The clamping fixture of the present invention adopts the above-mentioned structure. By using the bar material to make point contact with the tool holder in the V-shaped clamping block, the wear area is reduced and the stability is increased compared with the traditional line contact. Moreover, by clamping the bar material, it is easy to replace the new bar material after wear, and the operation is simple.

[0014] 2. This utility model achieves adjustment of the left vertical support block through locking components, adjusting connecting fixing blocks, slide rails and moving blocks, thereby adjusting the levelness of the tool holder on it, ensuring the jumping and swaying during manual rotation, and improving the measurement accuracy. At the same time, the adjustment method is simple, convenient and quick.
