[0002] In modern manufacturing, die-cast parts are widely used in many fields such as automobiles, aerospace, and electronics, and their quality directly affects the performance and safety of the final product. Therefore, the quality inspection of die-cast parts plays a crucial role in the entire production process.
[0003] Meanwhile, the patent specification with application number CN222095782U discloses a suspension fixture for shot blasting die-cast parts, "including a lifting rod, a lifting ring fixedly connected to the upper end of the lifting rod, several No. 1 connecting pipes movably installed on the lifting rod, an installation pipe fixedly connected to the side of the No. 1 connecting pipe, a No. 1 adjusting rod movably installed inside the installation pipe, a sliding rod fixedly connected to one end of the No. 1 adjusting rod, and two No. 2 connecting pipes fixedly connected to the other end of the No. 1 adjusting rod. The die-cast parts are suspended on the hook. The No. 1 adjusting rod is moved so that each die-cast part moves outward by a different distance, so that the die-cast parts are not in the same circle. Then, the protective frame is moved to both sides to store the die-cast parts inside the protective frame. The protective rod is pulled outward to form a protective structure on both sides of the die-cast parts, separating each die-cast part and preventing the die-cast parts from colliding with each other during shot blasting, causing damage and deformation."

[0027] 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.
[0028] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model provides a suspension frame device for assisting in the quality inspection of die-cast parts, including a support vertical rod 1. A counterweight 2 is installed at the bottom end of the support vertical rod 1. The counterweight 2 provides a stable support foundation for the entire suspension frame device, which can effectively prevent the device from tipping over due to instability of the center of gravity during operation and ensure the safety of operation. A power motor 23 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the counterweight 2. A worm gear 22 is fixedly connected to the output end of the power motor 23. A worm wheel 24 is meshed with the outer surface of the worm gear 22. A rotating shaft 21 is fixedly sleeved on the inner surface of the worm wheel 24. The top end of the rotating shaft 21 passes through the counterweight 2 and is fixedly connected to the support vertical rod 1. The power motor 23 drives the worm gear 22 and the worm wheel 24 to rotate, thereby driving the support vertical rod 1 to rotate. The horizontal angle of the support crossbar 56 can be adjusted, expanding the working range of the suspension frame device and facilitating the operation of die-cast parts in different positions. A lifting and translation component 5 is provided on the inner surface of the support vertical rod 1.
[0029] The lifting and translating assembly 5 includes a second power motor 51, which is fixedly connected to the supporting vertical rod 1. One end of the supporting vertical rod 1 has a lifting groove 53. The upper and lower inner walls of the lifting groove 53 are rotatably connected to a lead screw 52. The output end of the second power motor 51 passes through the top of the supporting vertical rod 1 and is fixedly connected to the lead screw 52. The outer surface of the lead screw 52 is threaded with a lifting seat 54. One end of the lifting seat 54 is fixedly connected to a supporting horizontal rod 56. The bottom end of the supporting horizontal rod 56 is fixedly connected to an electric slide rail 55. The outer surface of the electric slide rail 55 is slidably connected to a clamping assembly 8, which enables the suspension frame to adjust its position in both the vertical and horizontal directions. Through subsequent control of the lifting and translating assembly 5, the die-cast parts can be accurately lifted to the required positions such as the cleaning machine 6 and the quality inspection table 7, greatly improving the transfer efficiency and positioning accuracy during the quality inspection process of the die-cast parts.
[0030] Specifically, a cleaning machine 6 and a quality inspection table 7 are located directly below the support crossbar 56. The cleaning machine 6 and the quality inspection table 7 are located directly below the support crossbar 56, which facilitates the clamping assembly 8 to quickly transfer the die casting between the cleaning and quality inspection processes, effectively improving the efficiency of die casting quality inspection and reducing the time cost of transferring die casting between processes.
[0031] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, an inclined reinforcing rib 57 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the support crossbar 56. One end of the reinforcing rib 57 is fixedly connected to the lifting seat 54. The inclined reinforcing rib 57 enhances the connection strength between the support crossbar 56 and the lifting seat 54, making the support crossbar 56 more stable when bearing the weight of the die-cast part, ensuring the stability of the suspension device and reducing the safety risks caused by the instability of the support structure.
[0032] Furthermore, the bottom end of the counterweight 2 is fixedly connected to a mounting plate 4, and the inner surface of the mounting plate 4 is provided with several fastening bolts 3. Through the mounting plate 4 and the fastening bolts 3, the suspension device can be firmly installed in the designated position, avoiding shaking or displacement during operation, improving the safety and reliability of the device, and ensuring the stability of the device during long-term use.
[0033] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the clamping assembly 8 includes a fixed base 81, which is slidably connected to an electric slide rail 55. A support frame 83 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the fixed base 81 via a connecting rod. A power motor 91 is fixedly connected to the top end of the support frame 83. The output end of the power motor 91 passes through the top end of the support frame 83 and is fixedly connected to a lead screw 90. A lifting block 89 is threaded onto the outer surface of the lead screw 90. Four connecting rods 82 are rotatably connected to the outer surface of the lifting block 89. Two corresponding connecting rods 82 are rotatably connected to a moving block 88. A slide rod 84 is fixedly connected to the inner walls of both sides of the support frame 83. Two moving blocks 88 are slidably connected to the slide rod 84. A clamping plate 87 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of each of the two moving blocks 88. The power motor 91 drives the lead screw 90 to rotate, causing the lifting block 89 to rise and fall, thereby driving the moving block 88 to slide on the slide rod 84, realizing the opening and closing of the clamping plate 87. This allows for flexible and stable clamping of die-cast parts of different sizes, improving the adaptability of the device to die-cast parts of different specifications.
[0034] It is worth noting that each of the two clamping plates 87 has a soft pad 86 fixedly connected to one end. Each of the two clamping plates 87 and the two soft pads 86 has several through-hole circular grooves 85. The soft pads 86 on the clamping plates 87 can prevent damage to the surface of the die casting when clamping it, thus protecting the appearance quality of the die casting. The through-hole circular grooves 85 can reduce water residue when cleaning the die casting, which is beneficial to improving the cleaning effect and preventing water from causing secondary pollution to the die casting or affecting the accuracy of subsequent quality inspection.
[0035] Among them, motor 23, motor 51, and motor 91 are existing technologies and will not be described in detail. Additionally, this utility model also includes a power supply, controller, and switch, which are not the main technical points of this patent and will not be described in detail. The wiring diagram of the motors in this utility model is common knowledge in the field, and their working principle is already known technology. The appropriate model is selected based on actual use; therefore, the control method and wiring layout of the motors will not be explained in detail.
[0036] Working principle and process: When quality inspection of die castings is required, firstly, the worm gear 22 is driven to rotate by the power motor 23. The worm gear 22 drives the worm wheel 24 and the rotating shaft 21 to rotate, thereby adjusting the angle of the support vertical rod 1 so that the support horizontal rod 56 is in a suitable position. Then, the lead screw 52 is driven to rotate by the power motor 51. The lead screw 52 drives the lifting seat 54 to move up and down in the lifting groove 53 to adjust the height of the support horizontal rod 56. Next, the electric slide rail 55 drives the clamping assembly 8 to move above the die casting. The lead screw 90 is driven to rotate by the power motor 91. The lead screw 90 causes the lifting block 89 to descend. Through the connecting rod 82, the moving block 88 slides on the slide rod 84, so that the clamping plate 87 closes and clamps the die casting. After that, the die casting is moved to the cleaning machine 6 for cleaning by the electric slide rail 55. After cleaning, it is moved to the quality inspection table 7 for quality inspection. After quality inspection, it is placed in the packaging box.
