Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of machining and relates to a clamp, and more particularly to a hinged pressure plate clamping device suitable for machining. Background Technology

[0002] As is well known, fixtures are frequently used to fix workpieces during machining processes such as milling and drilling in machining centers. However, for some workpieces with large machining areas, thin thickness, and excessive overhang, deformation or unstable clamping may occur during machining due to issues such as tool deflection, clamping force, cutting force, and limitations of the workpiece's own structure. This can ultimately lead to unstable machining dimensions, poor surface finish, and tool marks.

[0003] To effectively solve the above problems and ensure good contact with the workpiece surface, a hinged clamping device suitable for machining centers is provided. This is especially convenient when the operator has difficulty accessing the workpiece's clamping point. It distributes the clamping force evenly across a pair of clamping plates via levers, ultimately pressing the workpiece vertically against the support surface. An adjusting support is installed in the long slot at the tail of each movable clamping plate, effectively preventing the support force generated by the plate's rotation. Simultaneously, a conical washer is added between the spherical shoulder nut and the plate surface. This prevents the hinge bolt from bending under stress when the workpiece tilts due to changes in workpiece height, ensuring reliable clamping and effectively preventing workpiece slippage during machining.

[0013] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. For example... Figure 1 As shown, a hinged clamping device suitable for machining includes: a T-shaped seat 1, a cylindrical pin 2, a first pin shaft 3, a first hinge bolt 4, a lever 5, a welding machine body 6, a first anti-loosening hexagonal thin nut 7, a first adjusting support 8, a first movable pressure plate 9, a first compression spring 10, a first conical washer 11, a first spherical shoulder nut 12, a first support 13, a workpiece 14, a second support 15, a second conical washer 16, a second spherical shoulder nut 17, a second compression spring 18, a second movable pressure plate 19, a second adjusting support 20, a second anti-loosening hexagonal thin nut 21, a second pin shaft 22, and a second hinge bolt 23.

[0014] In this embodiment, the T-shaped seat 1 is first suspended in the inner cavity of the welding machine body 6 using several hexagonal head screws. A rectangular through slot is provided in the middle of the lever 5 and passes through the upper part of the T-shaped seat 1. The cylindrical pin 2 is installed in the round hole of the rectangular through slot in the middle of the T-shaped seat 1 and the lever 5. The first hinge bolt 4 and the second hinge bolt 23 are respectively installed in the grooves provided on both sides of the lever 5. The first pin 3 and the second pin 22 are respectively installed in the round holes in the first hinge bolt 4, the second hinge bolt 23 and the grooves on both sides of the lever 5. The first compression spring 10 and the second compression spring 18 pass through the first hinge bolt 4 and the second hinge bolt 23 until the other end is in contact with the upper surface of the welding machine body 6. The first support 13 and the second support 15 are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the welding machine body 6 using several hexagonal head screws. The first adjusting support 8 and the second adjusting support 20 are vertically fixed at the threaded holes on the upper surface of the welding machine body 6. The first anti-loosening hexagonal thin nut 7 and the second anti-loosening hexagonal thin nut 21 lock the first adjusting support 8 and the second adjusting support 20 respectively. The oblong holes on the first movable pressure plate 9 and the second movable pressure plate 19 pass through the upper threads of the first hinge bolt 4 and the second hinge bolt 23, respectively. The long grooves below the tails of the first hinge bolt 4 and the second hinge bolt 23 are in contact with the ball heads on the upper parts of the first adjusting support 8 and the second adjusting support 20. The flat surfaces of the first conical washer 11 and the second conical washer 16 are respectively fitted onto the first hinge bolt 4 and the second hinge bolt 23 up to the top of the first movable pressure plate 9 and the second movable pressure plate 19. The first spherical shoulder nut 12 and the second spherical shoulder nut 17 are screwed into the threads of the first hinge bolt 4 and the second hinge bolt 23, and their spherical surfaces are in contact with the conical surfaces of the first conical washer 11 and the second conical washer 16.

[0015] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: After placing the workpiece 14 to be processed on the first support 13 and the second support 15, the first moving pressure plate 9 and the second moving pressure plate 19 at the left and right ends are moved horizontally inward respectively. The first spherical shoulder nut 12 or the second spherical shoulder nut 17 at one of the locations is rotated clockwise. The first moving pressure plate 9 and the second moving pressure plate 19 simultaneously begin to be subjected to a downward force and move downward along the waist-shaped circular hole on the two moving pressure plates. The corresponding first compression spring 10 and second compression spring 18 below the first moving pressure plate 9 and the second moving pressure plate 19 are compressed respectively. The force of the first spherical shoulder nut 12 or the second spherical shoulder nut 17 is applied to the lever 5 by the first hinge bolt 4 or the second hinge bolt 23, and the clamping force is evenly distributed to the two moving pressure plates. Finally, the workpiece 14 is vertically pressed onto the first support 13 and the second support 15.

[0016] After processing is completed, the first spherical shoulder nut 12 or the second spherical shoulder nut 17 at one of the locations should be loosened counterclockwise. The first compression spring 10 and the second compression spring 18 under the first moving pressure plate 9 and the second moving pressure plate 19 will rebound, and the two moving pressure plates will automatically return to their original positions, thereby eliminating the pressing state of the first moving pressure plate 9 and the second moving pressure plate 19.

[0017] This utility model has a compact structure, is easy to operate, and is safe and reliable to use. In the process of clamping and releasing the workpiece, it adopts a hinged pressure plate clamping form, which has a high degree of automation, ensures cutting stability and safety, improves workpiece processing efficiency, and reduces the labor intensity of the operator.

Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still make formal modifications to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
