Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of horizontal machining center technology, specifically a precision hydraulic clamping fixture for horizontal machining centers. Background Technology

[0002] A horizontal machining center is a CNC machine tool in which the spindle axis is set parallel to the worktable. It is a key piece of equipment in modern manufacturing for efficient and high-precision machining of complex parts. Equipped with a tool magazine and automatic tool changer, it can quickly switch tools and realize multi-process automatic machining.

[0003] Existing technology (publication number CN219725341U, publication date 2023-09-22) discloses a horizontal machining center fixed table, relating to the field of machining fixed table technology. It includes a machining fixed table, a movable support fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the fixed table, a movable fixing device fixedly mounted on the top surface of the fixed table, and a reference positioning component fixedly mounted on the surface of the fixed table. The movable support includes a support unit and a moving unit, and the movable fixing device includes a fixing unit and a clamping unit, with the clamping unit movably mounted on the surface of the fixing unit. By opening heat dissipation grooves on the surface of the machining motherboard, the heat generated during machining can be effectively dissipated, preventing excessive temperature from affecting product quality and the working environment. Simultaneously, the presence of filter holes prevents machining debris from passing through the heat dissipation grooves and affecting equipment safety.

[0004] While existing technologies can effectively dissipate the heat generated by the machine during processing, they cannot stably clamp and limit the workpiece during processing. The workpiece may shift due to the force between it and the tool during processing, thus affecting the accuracy of processing.

[0005] Therefore, we propose a precision hydraulic clamping fixture for horizontal machining centers to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a precision hydraulic clamping fixture for a horizontal machining center, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the workpiece to be processed cannot be stably clamped and limited during processing, and the workpiece may deviate due to the force of contact between it and the tool during processing, thereby affecting the accuracy of processing.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a precision hydraulic clamping fixture for a horizontal machining center, comprising a housing, a worktable for machining workpieces is fixedly connected inside the housing, hydraulic rods are provided on the left and right sides of the worktable inside the housing, and clamping structures are provided at the output ends of the hydraulic rods. The clamping structures clamp the workpiece from the side by moving the side fixing plates they contain. At the same time, auxiliary mechanisms are also provided on the side of the clamping structures. The auxiliary mechanisms clamp the workpiece from the front and rear sides by rotating the front fixing plates they contain.

[0008] Furthermore, the clamping structure includes a side fixing plate, which is fixedly connected to the output end of the hydraulic rod. A storage groove is provided on the inner side of the side fixing plate, and an anti-slip pad is nested inside the storage groove. At the same time, a first spring is fixedly connected between the inner side of the anti-slip pad and the inner wall of the storage groove.

[0009] Furthermore, a limiting rod is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the workbench, and a sliding seat is nested on the outside of the limiting rod. A rotating rod is hinged to the inside of the sliding seat, and the other end of the rotating rod is hinged to the side of the side fixing plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the rotating rod forms a rotating structure with the sliding seat via the side fixing plate, and the sliding seat forms a sliding structure with the rotating rod and the limiting rod.

[0011] Furthermore, the auxiliary mechanism includes a toothed plate, which is fixedly connected to the side of the sliding seat. The upper surface of the worktable is rotatably connected to the front and rear sides of the rotating shaft, and a gear is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating shaft. A rotating plate is fixedly connected to the middle of the rotating shaft, and a buffer bladder is fixedly connected to the front side of the rotating plate. A positive fixing plate is fixedly connected to the outside of the buffer bladder, and a second spring is fixedly connected between the inner side of the positive fixing plate and the rotating plate.

[0012] Furthermore, the gear meshes with the gear plate, and the rotating shaft forms a rotating structure with the worktable through the gear.

[0013] Furthermore, both the positive fixing plate and the rotating plate are arranged in an arc shape, and the positive fixing plate and the rotating plate form a rotating structure through the second spring.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. Place the workpiece to be processed on the upper surface of the worktable and activate the hydraulic rod. At this time, the hydraulic rod can drive the side fixing plate to move inward, thereby clamping and limiting the workpiece to be processed and preventing the workpiece to be processed from shifting in position during subsequent processing.

[0016] 2. An anti-slip pad is provided on the inner side of the side fixing plate. When the side fixing plate clamps the workpiece to be processed, the anti-slip pad will come into contact with the workpiece. At the same time, during the movement and clamping process of the side fixing plate, the anti-slip pad will squeeze the first spring. At this time, the first spring can buffer the force of the side fixing plate movement. Through the cooperation of the anti-slip pad and the first spring, the workpiece can be prevented from being damaged due to excessive clamping force during the clamping process.

[0017] 3. When the side fixing plate moves, it will simultaneously apply tension to the low rotating rod, causing the rotating rod to rotate. At this time, the other end of the rotating rod will simultaneously pull the sliding seat to move on the limiting rod. Through the cooperation between the limiting rod and the sliding seat, the stability of the side fixing plate movement can be improved, and the side fixing plate can better clamp and limit the workpiece.

[0018] 4. During the sliding process, the sliding seat can synchronously drive the toothed plate to move. At this time, the toothed plate can drive the gear meshing with it to rotate. When the gear rotates, it synchronously drives the rotating shaft to rotate, and the rotating shaft drives the rotating plate to rotate. At this time, the fixed plate rotates synchronously under the drive of the rotating plate, thereby providing auxiliary clamping for the front and rear sides of the workpiece and further ensuring the stability of the workpiece placement.

[0019] 5. When the positive fixing plate is attached to the workpiece, the positive fixing plate will simultaneously compress the second spring, causing the second spring to undergo elastic deformation. At the same time, the buffer bag is also compressed. The positive fixing plate cooperates with the second spring and the buffer bag to prevent the workpiece from being damaged due to excessive force when the positive fixing plate is rotated and clamped.

At the same time, a first spring 11 is fixedly connected between the inner side of the anti-slip pad 9 and the inner wall of the storage groove 10.

[0030] Place the workpiece to be processed on the upper surface of the worktable 2 and activate the hydraulic rod 5.

The inner side of the side fixing plate 3 is provided with an anti-slip pad 9. When the side fixing plate 3 clamps the workpiece to be processed, the anti-slip pad 9 will contact the workpiece to be processed. At the same time, during the movement and clamping process of the side fixing plate 3, the anti-slip pad 9 will squeeze the first spring 11. At this time, the first spring 11 can buffer the force of the side fixing plate 3 movement. Through the cooperation of the anti-slip pad 9 and the first spring 11, the workpiece can be prevented from being damaged due to excessive clamping force during the clamping process.

[0031] Example 2: Figure 3 and Figure 4The technical solution shown is provided by this utility model as follows: A precision hydraulic clamping fixture for a horizontal machining center, which discloses a sliding seat 8. The mutual cooperation between the sliding seats 8 can improve the stability of the movement of the side fixing plate 3.

A rotating rod 7 is hinged to the inner side of the sliding seat 8. At the same time, the other end of the rotating rod 7 is hinged to the side of the side fixing plate 3. The rotating rod 7 forms a rotating structure with the sliding seat 8 through the side fixing plate 3, and the sliding seat 8 forms a sliding structure with the limit rod 6 through the rotating rod 7.

[0032] When the side fixing plate 3 moves, it will simultaneously apply a pulling force to the low rotating rod 7, causing the rotating rod 7 to rotate. At this time, the other end of the rotating rod 7 will simultaneously pull the sliding seat 8 to move on the limiting rod 6. Through the cooperation between the limiting rod 6 and the sliding seat 8, the stability of the movement of the side fixing plate 3 can be improved, and the side fixing plate 3 can better clamp and limit the workpiece.

Both the positive fixing plate 4 and the rotating plate 14 are arranged in an arc shape, and the positive fixing plate 4 forms a rotating structure with the rotating plate 14 through the second spring 16.

[0034] During the sliding process, the sliding seat 8 can synchronously drive the toothed plate 13 to move. At this time, the toothed plate 13 can drive the gear 12 meshing with it to rotate. When the gear 12 rotates, it synchronously drives the rotating shaft 15 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 15 drives the rotating plate 14 to rotate. At this time, the positive fixing plate 4 rotates synchronously under the drive of the rotating plate 14, thereby providing auxiliary clamping for the front and rear sides of the workpiece and further ensuring the stability of the workpiece placement. When the positive fixing plate 4 is in contact with the workpiece, the positive fixing plate 4 will synchronously compress the second spring 16, causing the second spring 16 to undergo elastic deformation.
