Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of vernier caliper processing equipment, and in particular relates to a vernier caliper fixture. Background Technology

[0002] Vernier calipers are a common measuring tool used in machining, precision measurement, and other fields, widely used to measure the length, thickness, inner diameter, outer diameter, and other dimensions of objects. During the assembly of vernier calipers, positioning is necessary. Existing positioning fixtures for vernier calipers mostly only allow for horizontal fixation. For example, Chinese utility model patents with publication numbers CN204461266U and CN213917110U both disclose a positioning device and clamp for fixing vernier calipers. These existing technologies can only position and inspect or install horizontally placed vernier calipers. In the actual assembly process of vernier calipers, some vernier calipers require the installation of screws and spring clips on the side, thus necessitating vertical positioning. However, existing technologies do not yet provide fixtures capable of vertically positioning vernier calipers. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a vernier caliper fixture, which aims to solve the technical problem that the existing technology cannot vertically position the vernier caliper.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a vernier caliper fixture for fixing a vernier caliper. The vernier caliper includes a head end and a tail end. The fixture includes: a base; a first clamping plate and a second clamping plate, which are perpendicularly mounted on the base and are parallel to each other. The same end of the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate extends beyond the base. An insertion space is provided between the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate. The width of the insertion space is adapted to the thickness of the head end of the vernier caliper. The insertion space can accommodate the vernier caliper being inserted vertically therein; and a baffle, wherein the length of the first clamping plate is greater than the length of the second clamping plate. The baffle is disposed at the end of the first clamping plate that extends beyond the base and is used to stop the vernier caliper in the length direction of the first clamping plate.

[0005] Optionally, the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate are provided with clearance grooves at corresponding positions. The clearance grooves pass through the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate along the width direction of the insertion space and are connected to the insertion space.

[0006] Optionally, it also includes a top block, wherein the first clamping plate has a groove along the width direction of the insertion space, the top block is accommodated in the groove and can slide back and forth between an initial position partially inserted into the insertion space and an avoidance position moved out of the insertion space, and an elastic element is provided between the top block and the base, the elastic element being configured to make the top block always have a tendency to move towards the initial position.

[0007] Optionally, the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate are provided with the sliding groove at corresponding positions. There are two top blocks and two elastic elements. The two elastic elements and the two top blocks are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. The two top blocks are arranged opposite each other in the width direction of the insertion space.

[0008] Optionally, the top block is installed in the middle of the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate.

[0009] Optionally, the elastic element is a compression spring.

[0010] Optionally, the top block has a guide radius at one end near the insertion space.

[0011] Optionally, a pad is provided on the base, the pad is located in the insertion space, and the pad is used to support the middle or tail end of the vernier caliper.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the above-mentioned technical solutions of one or more of the vernier caliper fixtures provided in this utility model embodiment have at least one of the following technical effects: the first clamp and the second clamp can limit the rotational freedom of the vernier caliper in the horizontal direction, so that the vernier caliper can always be kept in a vertical state. The baffle can further restrict the flipping of the vernier caliper in the vertical direction. During installation, the vernier caliper only needs to be vertically inserted into the insertion space and the end face of the vernier caliper abuts against the baffle to achieve the limiting. The fixture structure in this utility model can conveniently and quickly limit the vertically placed vernier caliper, and can meet the processing needs of different parts of the vernier caliper.

[0025] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the embodiments of the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0026] In the description of the embodiments of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "length", "width", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the embodiments of this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0027] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of embodiments of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0028] In this embodiment of the invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this embodiment of the invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a fixture for fixing a vernier caliper 100. The vernier caliper 100 includes a head end 110 and a tail end 120. The fixture includes a base 200, a first clamping plate 210, a second clamping plate 220, and a baffle 211.

[0030] The first clamping plate 210 and the second clamping plate 220 are installed perpendicularly to each other on the base 200, with the same end of both the first clamping plate 210 and the second clamping plate 220 extending beyond the base 200. Figure 1 From the perspective shown, the left ends of the first clamping plate 210 and the second clamping plate 220 extend beyond the base 200. An insertion space 300 is left between the first clamping plate 210 and the second clamping plate 220. The width of the insertion space 300 is adapted to the thickness of the first end 110 of the vernier caliper 100 so that the insertion space 300 can accommodate the vernier caliper 100 inserted vertically. The length of the first clamping plate 210 is greater than the length of the second clamping plate 220. A baffle 211 is provided at the end of the first clamping plate 210 that extends beyond the base 200. The baffle 211 is used to stop the vernier caliper 100 in the length direction of the first clamping plate 210.

[0031] Understandably, the first clamping plate 210 and the second clamping plate 220 can limit the rotational freedom of the vernier caliper 100 in the horizontal direction, ensuring that the vernier caliper 100 remains in a vertical position. The baffle 211 further restricts the vertical rotation of the vernier caliper and allows the vernier caliper 100 to rotate freely in the vertical direction. Figure 1The left and right positions of the vernier caliper are limited from a specific viewing angle. During installation, simply insert the vernier caliper vertically into the insertion space 300 and ensure that the end face of the vernier caliper 100 abuts against the baffle 211 to achieve the limiting position. The fixture structure in this utility model can conveniently and quickly limit the vertically placed vernier caliper 100, and can meet the processing needs of different parts of the vernier caliper 100.

[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the first clamping plate 210 and the second clamping plate 220 are each provided with a clearance groove 230 at corresponding positions. The clearance groove 230 passes through the first clamping plate 210 and the second clamping plate 220 along the width direction of the insertion space 300 and communicates with the insertion space 300. Providing the clearance groove 230 facilitates the handling and placement of the vernier caliper 100 by operators or robotic arms, thereby improving the efficiency of loading and unloading.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, a top block 400 is also included. A groove 240 is provided on the first clamping plate 210 along the width direction of the insertion space 300. The top block 400 is housed within the groove 240 and can reciprocate between an initial position partially inserted into the insertion space 300 and a clearance position moved out of the insertion space 300. An elastic element 500 is provided between the top block 400 and the base 200. The elastic element 500 is configured to ensure that the top block 400 always has a tendency to move towards the initial position. When the vernier caliper 100 is not placed in the insertion space 300, the top block 400 is in a position where... Figure 4 As shown in the initial position, during the process of inserting the vernier caliper 100 into the insertion space 300, the vernier caliper 100 will push the top block 400 to the side, causing the top block 400 to be pushed to the position shown in the figure. Figure 3 The avoidance position is shown, and when the vernier caliper 100 is disengaged from the insertion space 300, the top block 400 will return to the initial position under the action of the elastic element 500.

[0034] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the first clamping plate 210 and the second clamping plate 220 are provided with corresponding sliding grooves 240. Two top blocks 400 and two elastic members 500 are provided, with each elastic member 500 and top block 400 corresponding to the other. The two top blocks 400 are positioned opposite each other in the width direction of the insertion space 300. By providing two sliding grooves 240, the vernier caliper 100 can be supported by the top blocks 400 on both sides, preventing it from easily dislodging from the insertion space 300.

[0035] Specifically, such as Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the top block 400 is installed in the middle of the first clamping plate 210 and the second clamping plate 220, which can improve the stability when inserting and removing the vernier caliper 100 and improve the overall stability of the equipment operation.

[0036] It is understood that in some embodiments of this utility model, the elastic element 500 may be a compression spring, which is connected to the top block 400 on the side of the top block 400 away from the insertion space 300.

[0037] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the top block 400 is provided with a guide fillet 410 at one end near the insertion space 300. The guide fillet 410 can provide guidance and a smooth mating surface for the vernier caliper 100, preventing the vernier caliper 100 from getting stuck during insertion.

[0038] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, a pad 250 is provided on the base 200, the pad 250 is located within the insertion space 300, and the pad 250 is used to support the middle or tail end 120 of the vernier caliper 100. Figure 2 and Figure 4 In the illustrated embodiment, the pad 250 supports the middle of the vernier caliper 100 to prevent the tail end 120 of the vernier caliper 100 from flipping downwards. Similarly, when the base 200 is long enough, the pad 250 can also directly support the tail end 120 of the vernier caliper 100.

[0039] The above description, in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of this utility model. It should not be construed that the specific implementation of this utility model is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, the architectural form of this utility model can be flexibly varied without departing from its concept, and a series of products can be derived. Any simple deductions or substitutions should be considered as falling within the patent protection scope defined by the submitted claims.
