Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of socket testing equipment, specifically a clamping structure for a socket insertion and removal testing device. Background Technology
[0002] The applicant previously applied for and was granted a utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN221571816U, which discloses a plug-in / plug-out testing device for socket production, including a base, a testing structure, and two clamping structures. A disc is rotatably connected to the top of the base. The clamping structure includes a base plate and a sliding plate. Several clamping stations are provided on the sliding plate. Each clamping station includes a cavity, a clamping assembly, and a driving assembly. The cavity is located inside the sliding plate, which has through holes and through slots. Two limiting slots are provided on the cavity wall. The driving assembly includes a sleeve, a threaded rod, a sliding rod, two half-gears, two rotating plates, and two sliding bars. A rack and a connecting block are provided on the sliding bars. The sleeve has sliding grooves and threaded holes. The clamping assembly includes two clamping plates. The testing structure includes a bracket, a hydraulic cylinder, a lifting plate, and several plugs. This utility model can fully utilize the time when the sockets are being tested; after one set of sockets is tested, the next set can immediately rotate to the testing structure for testing, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0003] This utility model includes a clamping structure with multiple clamping stations for clamping sockets, enabling the simultaneous placement of multiple sockets for simultaneous testing. However, in actual use, the applicant found that each clamping station needs to be operated individually to simultaneously fix all sockets in the clamping structure. This clamping method is inefficient and has room for improvement.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model proposes a new technical solution to solve the problem of insufficient work efficiency caused by the need to operate each clamping station one by one to fix each socket in the clamping structure at the same time. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a clamping structure for a socket insertion and removal testing device, which aims to achieve the technical effect of more conveniently installing sockets and improving work efficiency by driving each clamping station to clamp or release simultaneously through a linkage structure.
[0006] A clamping structure for a socket insertion and removal testing device includes a base plate, a sliding plate slidably connected to the top of the base plate, and a plurality of clamping stations disposed on the sliding plate.
[0007] The sliding plate is also provided with a linkage structure for simultaneously driving each clamping station. The linkage structure includes a first cavity, a first rotating shaft, a driving component, and several first driving gears. The first cavity is opened inside the sliding plate. The first rotating shaft is rotatably connected between the front and rear cavity walls of the first cavity through bearings. Several first driving gears are all located inside the first cavity and are all fixedly sleeved on the outside of the first rotating shaft. The driving component is disposed inside the first cavity and is used to drive the first rotating shaft to rotate.
[0008] Several clamping stations are arranged at equal intervals from front to back, and each corresponds to one of the first driving gears. Each clamping station includes an inner cavity, a strip-shaped groove, a turntable, a shaft, and two clamping plates. The inner cavity is located inside the sliding plate and on the left side of the first cavity. The strip-shaped groove is located on the left side wall of the inner cavity, extending laterally and leading to the outside of the sliding plate. Strip-shaped limiting grooves with the same extending direction are provided on both the upper and lower sides of the strip-shaped groove. The turntable is rotatably connected to the inside of the inner cavity. Two arc-shaped sliding grooves are provided on the left side wall of the turntable, each corresponding to a strip-shaped groove and arranged in a centrally symmetrical manner. One end of the groove is close to the center of the turntable, and the other end is away from the center of the turntable. Both clamping plates slide along the strip-shaped through groove and are arranged symmetrically front and back. A limiting block for inserting into and sliding along the strip-shaped limiting groove is fixed on the outer wall of the clamping plate. The left end of the clamping plate extends to the left side of the sliding plate, and the right end of the clamping plate extends into the first cavity and is fixed with a sliding rod for inserting into and sliding along the arc-shaped sliding groove. The shaft and the sliding plate are rotatably connected by a bearing. The left end of the shaft is located in the inner cavity and is fixedly connected to the center of the right side wall of the turntable. The right end of the shaft is located in the first cavity and is fixed with a first driven gear that meshes with the first driving gear.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the driving component rotates the first rotating shaft. The first rotating shaft drives several first driving gears to rotate simultaneously. The several first driving gears drive several first driven gears to rotate simultaneously. The several first driven gears drive several shafts to rotate simultaneously. The several shafts drive several turntables to rotate simultaneously. Thus, each clamping station is driven simultaneously.
[0010] When the turntable rotates, the position of its arc-shaped sliding groove changes. Since the clamping plate can only slide back and forth along the strip-shaped groove, and the sliding rod is fixedly connected to the clamping plate, it can also only move back and forth. Therefore, when the turntable rotates, the arc-shaped sliding groove drives the sliding rod and clamping plate to slide back and forth, and the position of the sliding rod relative to the arc-shaped sliding groove also changes. When the clamping plate slides along the strip-shaped groove, it drives the limiting block to slide along the strip-shaped limiting groove. The limiting block and the strip-shaped limiting groove prevent the clamping plate from falling off. When the turntable rotates forward, the position of the sliding rod relative to the arc-shaped sliding groove moves from near the center to away from the center, meaning the two sliding rods move in opposite directions, thereby driving the two clamping plates to move in opposite directions, clamping the socket at the workstation. Similarly, when the turntable rotates in the reverse direction, the position of the sliding rod relative to the arc-shaped sliding groove moves from away from the center to near the center, meaning the two sliding rods move towards each other, thereby driving the two clamping plates towards each other, clamping the socket at the workstation.
[0011] This utility model uses a linkage structure to simultaneously clamp or release each clamping station, thereby making it easier to assemble and disassemble each socket and improving work efficiency.
[0012] A further feature of this invention is that the driving component includes a worm gear and a worm. The worm gear is located inside the first cavity and is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the first rotating shaft. The worm is rotatably connected to the sliding plate through a bearing. The bottom of the worm is located inside the first cavity and meshes with the worm gear, and the top of the worm is located above the sliding plate.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, when the first rotating shaft needs to be rotated by the drive component, the worm gear is rotated. The worm gear drives the worm wheel meshing with it to rotate. The worm wheel drives the first rotating shaft, which is fixedly connected to it, to rotate. The self-locking effect between the worm wheel and the worm gear can improve the stability of the first rotating shaft, thereby ensuring that the socket can be stably clamped between the two clamping plates.
[0014] Further features of this invention: A second cavity is provided inside the base plate. A second rotating shaft is rotatably connected between the front and rear walls of the second cavity via bearings. Two second driving gears are fixedly sleeved on the outside of the second rotating shaft. The front end of the second rotating shaft extends out of the base plate. A horizontally extending strip-shaped groove is provided on both the front and rear sides of the top of the base plate. A lead screw is rotatably connected to the strip-shaped groove via bearings. One end of the lead screw passes into the second cavity and is fixedly fitted with a second driven gear that meshes with the second driving gear. A nut seat that slides along the strip-shaped groove is threadedly sleeved on the outside of the lead screw. The top end of the nut seat extends out of the strip-shaped groove and is fixedly fitted with a connecting block. The connecting block is fixedly connected to the sliding plate.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is necessary to adjust the sliding plate to align the external test structure with the socket's insertion hole, the second rotating shaft is rotated. The second rotating shaft drives the second driving gear fixed thereon to rotate. The second driving gear drives the second driven gear meshing with it to rotate. The second driven gear drives the lead screw fixedly connected to it to rotate. The lead screw drives the nut seat to move left and right along the strip-shaped sliding groove. The nut seat drives the connecting block to move left and right. The connecting block drives the sliding plate to move left and right.
[0016] A further feature of this invention is that a rotating handle is fixed to the top of the worm gear and the front end of the second rotating shaft.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the worm gear and the second shaft can be rotated more conveniently by turning the handle.

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] A clamping structure for a socket insertion / removal testing device, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, it includes a base plate 1 and a sliding plate 2 slidably connected to the top of the base plate 1. The sliding plate 2 is provided with several clamping stations and a linkage structure for simultaneously driving each clamping station.
[0028] The linkage structure includes a first cavity 3, a first rotating shaft 4, a driving component, and several first driving gears 5. The first cavity 3 is located inside the sliding plate 2. The first rotating shaft 4 is rotatably connected between the front and rear side walls of the first cavity 3 via bearings. The several first driving gears 5 are all located inside the first cavity 3 and are all fixedly sleeved on the outside of the first rotating shaft 4. The driving component includes a worm gear 6 and a worm 7. The worm gear 6 is located inside the first cavity 3 and is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the first rotating shaft 4. The worm 7 is rotatably connected to the sliding plate 2 via bearings. The bottom of the worm 7 is located inside the first cavity 3 and meshes with the worm gear 6. The top of the worm 7 is located above the sliding plate 2.
[0029] Several clamping stations are arranged at equal intervals from front to back, and each corresponds to one of the first driving gears 5. Each clamping station includes an inner cavity 8, a strip-shaped through groove 9, a turntable 10, a shaft 11, and two clamping plates 12. The inner cavity 8 is located inside the sliding plate 2 and on the left side of the first cavity 3. The strip-shaped through groove 9 is located on the left side wall of the inner cavity 8. The strip-shaped through groove 9 extends laterally and leads to the outside of the sliding plate 2. Strip-shaped limiting grooves 13 with the same extending direction are provided on both the upper and lower sides of the strip-shaped through groove 9. The turntable 10 is rotatably connected to the inside of the inner cavity 8. Two arc-shaped sliding grooves 14 are provided on the left side wall of the turntable 10. Both arc-shaped sliding grooves 14 correspond to the strip-shaped through groove 9 and are arranged in a centrally symmetrical manner. One end of the arc-shaped sliding groove 14 is close to the center of the turntable 10, and the other end is away from the center of the turntable 10. Both clamping plates 12 slide along the strip-shaped through groove 9 and are arranged symmetrically front to back. A limiting block 15 is fixed to the outer wall of the clamping plate 12 for inserting into and sliding along the strip-shaped limiting groove 13. The left end of the clamping plate 12 extends to the left side of the sliding plate 2. The right end of the clamping plate 12 extends into the first cavity 3 and is fixed with a sliding rod 16 for inserting into and sliding along the arc-shaped sliding groove 14. The shaft 11 is rotatably connected to the sliding plate 2 via a bearing. The left end of the shaft 11 is located inside the inner cavity 8 and is fixedly connected to the center of the right side wall of the turntable 10. The right end of the shaft 11 is located inside the first cavity 3 and is fixed with a first driven gear 17 that meshes with the first driving gear 5.
[0030] Additionally, a second cavity 18 is provided inside the base plate 1. A second rotating shaft 19 is rotatably connected between the front and rear walls of the second cavity 18 via bearings. Two second driving gears 20 are fixedly sleeved on the outside of the second rotating shaft 19. The front end of the second rotating shaft 19 protrudes from the base plate 1. A horizontally extending strip groove 21 is provided on both the front and rear sides of the top of the base plate 1. A lead screw 22 is rotatably connected to the strip groove 21 via bearings. One end of the lead screw 22 passes into the second cavity 18 and is fixedly fitted with a second driven gear 23 that meshes with the second driving gear 20. A nut seat 24, which slides along the strip groove 21, is threadedly sleeved on the outside of the lead screw 22. The top end of the nut seat 24 protrudes from the strip groove 21 and is fixedly fitted with a connecting block 25. The connecting block 25 is fixedly connected to the sliding plate 2.
[0031] When it is necessary to adjust the sliding plate 2 to align the external test structure with the socket's insertion hole, rotate the second rotating shaft 19. The second rotating shaft 19 drives the second driving gear 20 fixed thereon to rotate. The second driving gear 20 drives the second driven gear 23 meshing with it to rotate. The second driven gear 23 drives the lead screw 22 fixedly connected to it to rotate. The lead screw 22 drives the nut seat 24 to move left and right along the strip-shaped groove. The nut seat 24 drives the connecting block 25 to move left and right. The connecting block 25 drives the sliding plate 2 to move left and right.
[0032] A rotating handle 26 is fixed to the top of the worm gear 7 and the front end of the second rotating shaft 19. Rotating the handle 26 makes it easier to rotate the worm gear 7 and the second rotating shaft 19.
[0033] Working principle:
[0034] Rotate the worm gear 7. The worm gear 7 drives the worm wheel 6, which meshes with it, to rotate. The worm wheel 6 drives the first rotating shaft 4, which is fixedly connected to it, to rotate. The self-locking action between the worm wheel 6 and the worm gear 7 improves the stability of the first rotating shaft 4, thereby ensuring that the socket can be stably clamped between the two clamping plates 12.
[0035] The rotation of the first rotating shaft 4 drives several first driving gears 5 to rotate simultaneously. These first driving gears 5 then drive several first driven gears 17 to rotate simultaneously. These first driven gears 17 then drive several shafts 11 to rotate simultaneously. These shafts 11 then drive several turntables 10 to rotate simultaneously, thus simultaneously driving each clamping station.
[0036] When the turntable 10 rotates, the position of the arc-shaped groove 14 on it changes. Since the clamping plate 12 can only slide back and forth along the strip groove 9, and the sliding rod 16 is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 12, the sliding rod 16 can only move back and forth. Therefore, when the turntable 10 rotates, the arc-shaped groove 14 can drive the sliding rod 16 and the clamping plate 12 to slide back and forth, and the position of the sliding rod 16 relative to the arc-shaped groove 14 also changes. When the clamping plate 12 slides along the strip groove 9, it drives the limiting block 15 to slide along the strip limiting groove 13. The setting of the limiting block 15 and the strip limiting groove 13 can prevent the clamping plate 12 from falling off. When the turntable 10 rotates in the forward direction, the position of the sliding rod 16 relative to the arc-shaped groove 14 moves from near the center to away from the center, that is, the two sliding rods 16 move in opposite directions, thereby driving the two clamping plates 12 to move in opposite directions, clamping the workstation and releasing the socket. Similarly, when the turntable 10 rotates in the opposite direction, the position of the slide rod 16 relative to the arc-shaped slide groove 14 moves from away from the center to near the center, that is, the two slide rods 16 move towards each other, thereby driving the two clamping plates 12 to move towards each other, clamping the socket at the work station.
[0037] This utility model uses a linkage structure to simultaneously clamp or release each clamping station, thereby making it easier to assemble and disassemble each socket and improving work efficiency.
