Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7As shown, the auxiliary assembly device for a ball spline drive shaft of this utility model includes a base plate 1, a column 2 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base plate 1, a horizontal plate 3 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the column 2, a groove 4 on the front of the horizontal plate 3, a first sliding hole 5 inside the horizontal plate 3, a first cylinder 6 fitted to the inner wall of the first sliding hole 5, a first electric push rod 7 fixedly connected to the bottom of the first cylinder 6 and the upper surface of the base plate 1, a first bearing 8 fixedly connected to the surface of the first cylinder 6, a first connecting frame 9 fixedly connected to the outer ring of the first bearing 8, a left support frame 10 fixedly connected to the front of the first connecting frame 9, a second bearing 11 fixedly connected to the surface of the first cylinder 6, a second connecting frame 12 fixedly connected to the outer ring of the second bearing 11, a right support frame 13 fixedly connected to the front of the second connecting frame 12, a second sliding hole 14 inside the horizontal plate 3, an L-shaped plate 15 fitted to the inner wall of the second sliding hole 14, and the L-shaped plate... The bottom of L-shaped plate 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the first cylinder 6. The front of L-shaped plate 15 is fixedly connected to the second electric push rod 16. The front of the second electric push rod 16 is fixedly connected to the rectangular plate 17. The upper surface of the rectangular plate 17 is fixedly connected to the second cylinder 18. The interior of the first connecting frame 9 and the interior of the second connecting frame 12 are both provided with strip holes 19. The inner wall of the strip holes 19 is in contact with the surface of the second cylinder 18. The upper surface of the bottom plate 1 is fixedly connected to the positioning support column 20. The left and right sides of the positioning support column 20 are both provided with positioning grooves 21. The inner wall of the positioning groove 21 is in contact with the top block 22. The interior of the top block 22 is provided with a through hole 23. The inner wall of the through hole 23 is in contact with the fixing bolt 24. The interior of the positioning support column 20 is provided with a threaded hole 25. The inner wall of the threaded hole 25 is threadedly connected to the surface of the fixing bolt 24. The inner surface of the left support frame 10 and the inner surface of the right support frame 13 are both fixedly connected to the pad block 26.

[0025] The left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13 are both arc-shaped. The center of the left support frame 10 and the center of the right support frame 13 coincide with the axis of the positioning support column 20. The front of the groove 4 is open and the groove 4 is located above the positioning support column 20. The length of the strip hole 19 is greater than the diameter of the second cylinder 18, and the width of the strip hole 19 is equal to the diameter of the second cylinder 18. The depth of the positioning groove 21 is less than the width of the top block 22, and the height of the positioning groove 21 is equal to the height of the top block 22.

[0026] It should be noted that the horizontal plate 3 is supported by the column 2. When the drive shaft is inserted into the positioning support column 20, the drive shaft is located in the groove 4. The drive shaft is positioned and supported by the positioning support column 20 and the top block 22. The height of the left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13 can be adjusted according to the different lengths of the drive shaft by the first electric push rod 7. At the same time, through the cooperation of the L-shaped plate 15 and the second sliding hole 14, the first cylinder 6 can only move up and down in the first sliding hole 5.

[0027] The left support frame 10 can rotate around the first cylinder 6 through the cooperation of the first bearing 8 and the first connecting frame 9. The right support frame 13 can rotate around the first cylinder 6 through the cooperation of the second bearing 11 and the second connecting frame 12. The rectangular plate 17 can be moved back and forth by the second electric push rod 16. When the distance between the rectangular plate 17 and the first cylinder 6 decreases, the opening degree between the left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13 decreases through the cooperation of the second cylinder 18 and the strip hole 19. When the distance between the rectangular plate 17 and the first cylinder 6 increases, the opening degree between the left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13 increases through the cooperation of the second cylinder 18 and the strip hole 19. When the left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13 clamp the drive shaft, the drive shaft can be supported and fixed by the left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13. The pad 26 is made of nylon material to prevent the paint surface of the drive shaft from being crushed or scratched when the left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13 clamp the drive shaft.

[0028] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the distance between the rectangular plate 17 and the first cylinder 6 is increased by the second electric push rod 16. Then, the opening and closing degree between the left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13 is increased through the cooperation of the second cylinder 18 and the strip hole 19. When the opening and closing degree between the left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13 reaches its maximum value, the second electric push rod 16 stops retracting. Next, the drive shaft is inserted into the positioning support column 20, and the drive shaft contacts the upper surface of the top block 22. At this time, the top block 22 supports the drive shaft, and the positioning support column 20 positions the drive shaft. Then, the distance between the rectangular plate 17 and the first cylinder 6 is decreased by the second electric push rod 16, and the distance between the rectangular plate 17 and the first cylinder 6 is decreased through the cooperation of the second cylinder 18 and the strip hole 19. The cooperation with the strip hole 19 reduces the opening degree between the left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13. When the left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13 clamp the drive shaft, the second electric push rod 16 stops extending. At this time, the drive shaft is supported and fixed by the left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13. When it is necessary to remove the drive shaft, the second electric push rod 16 increases the distance between the rectangular plate 17 and the first cylinder 6. The cooperation between the second cylinder 18 and the strip hole 19 increases the opening degree between the left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13. When the opening degree between the left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13 increases to the maximum value, the second electric push rod 16 stops retracting. At this time, the drive shaft can be directly removed from the positioning support column 20.

[0029] When it is necessary to change the height of the left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13, the height of the left support frame 10 and the right support frame 13 can be changed by retracting or extending the first electric push rod 7. When it is necessary to change the height of the top block 22, first unscrew the fixing bolt 24 from the threaded hole 25, then insert the top block 22 into the positioning groove 21 at the specified height, and screw the fixing bolt 24 into the corresponding threaded hole 25. At this time, the top block 22 can be fixed in the positioning groove 21 at the specified height by the cooperation of the fixing bolt 24 and the threaded hole 25.

[0030] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the field.
