Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of stacking and transfer clamping technology, specifically a clamping device for clamping the main root of stacked cylindrical bars. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial production, the handling and stacking of cylindrical bars is a common operation, especially in metal processing, building materials, and machinery manufacturing. Traditional cylindrical bar clamping devices mostly employ manual or simple mechanical structures, which suffer from problems such as unstable clamping, low operating efficiency, and limited applicability. Particularly when handling cylindrical bars of different lengths and diameters, traditional devices often struggle to achieve precise adjustment and stable clamping, leading to slippage and displacement during handling, thus affecting production efficiency and safety.

[0003] With the continuous development of automation technology, the requirements for cylindrical bar clamping devices are becoming increasingly stringent. While existing automated clamping devices have improved operational efficiency to some extent, they still have many shortcomings in their structural design. For example, some devices cannot adapt to bars of different lengths, or lack sufficient stability and precision during clamping. Furthermore, existing devices have complex structures, high manufacturing costs, and are difficult to maintain and replace parts, limiting their widespread application in actual production.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a cylindrical bar clamping device that is simple in structure, flexible in operation, and widely applicable, capable of stably and accurately clamping and transporting cylindrical bars of different lengths and diameters, while possessing high structural strength and durability to meet the needs of modern industrial production.

[0008] The drive motor is fixedly installed in the middle of the mounting bracket, and the output shaft of the drive motor is connected to the adjusting screw in each group of the transmission components.

[0009] Based on the above technical solutions, in order to ensure that the connector can be stably assembled on the mounting bracket in a relatively sliding posture and to achieve a fixed combination with the retractable bracket, the following technical solutions are provided.

[0010] The mounting bracket includes a base plate and side plates fixed to both sides of the base plate. The base plate has two sets of strip-shaped through grooves arranged in the same straight direction. The upper and lower surfaces of the base plate are respectively fixed with an upper guide rail and a lower guide rail, which are arranged on both sides of the strip-shaped through grooves.

[0011] The connector includes an upper positioning plate, a lower positioning plate, a connecting seat, an upper guide groove, and a lower guide groove. A connecting seat is fixed between the upper and lower positioning plates. The connecting seat is arranged in the strip-shaped through groove. The upper guide groove is fixedly installed at the bottom of the upper positioning plate and slidably inserted into the upper guide rail. The lower guide groove is fixedly installed at the top of the lower positioning plate and slidably inserted into the lower guide rail. The retractable bracket is fixedly installed at the bottom of the lower positioning plate.

[0013] The two sets of side plate brackets of the mounting bracket are fixedly connected to the connecting plate. The adjusting screw is rotatably mounted on the connecting plate. The connecting member also includes a rotating seat fixedly connected to the upper positioning plate. The rotating seat is rotatably connected to the adjusting screw.

[0014] Based on the above technical solutions, in order to ensure that the fixed bracket can be stably installed on the mounting bracket, and to ensure that the fixed bracket and the take-up bracket or two sets of take-up brackets can stably clamp the cylindrical bar, the following technical solutions are provided.

[0015] A pad is arranged between the base plate of the fixed bracket and the mounting bracket. The fixed bracket and the retractable bracket are arranged at the same horizontal position. Vertically arranged clamps are fixed to the outer ends of both the fixed bracket and the retractable bracket.

Detailed Implementation

[0033] 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.

[0034] Please see Figure 1-6A clamping device for picking up stacked cylindrical bars one by one includes a mounting bracket 1 and a take-up and release bracket 21, a drive motor 3, and a transmission assembly assembled on the mounting bracket 1. The take-up and release bracket 21 is arranged along the length direction of the mounting bracket 1, and at least one set of take-up and release brackets 21 is provided. When one set of take-up and release brackets 21 is provided, a fixed bracket 22 is also fixedly installed on the mounting bracket 1. The fixed bracket 22 is arranged along the length direction of the mounting bracket 1.

[0035] Each set of take-up and take-down brackets 21 is equipped with a transmission assembly, which includes a connector 41 and an adjusting screw 42. The connector 41 is slidably mounted on the mounting bracket 1 and moves along the length of the mounting bracket 1. The take-up and take-down bracket 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connector 41. The adjusting screw 42 is rotatably mounted in the mounting bracket 1 and is kept in a screwed connection with the adjusting screw 42.

[0036] The drive motor 3 is fixedly installed in the middle of the mounting bracket 1, and the output shaft of the drive motor 3 is connected to the adjusting screw 42 in each group of transmission components.

[0037] The mounting bracket 1, as well as the take-up and take-down bracket 21 and the fixing bracket 22, are all made of channel steel by cutting and welding, which can ensure their own structural strength, thereby ensuring stable clamping, transfer and stacking of cylindrical bars.

[0038] When the drive motor 3 is running, it can drive the adjusting screw 42 to rotate stably around its own axis, thereby driving the connecting piece 41 and the take-up and take-down bracket 21 connected to the connecting piece 41 to run stably along the length direction of the mounting bracket 1, so as to achieve precise adjustment of the specific position of the take-up and take-down bracket 21.

[0039] When the clamping device uses two sets of horizontally opposed take-up and release brackets 21, both sets of take-up and release brackets 21 can be driven by the drive motor 3 through the transmission component to run stably, so as to move closer or further away from each other. The two sets of take-up and release brackets 21 respectively clamp the two ends of the cylindrical bar material, and stably clamp the cylindrical bar material.

[0040] When the clamping device uses one set each of the take-up bracket 21 and the fixed bracket 22, the fixed bracket 22 is always in a fixed position relative to the mounting bracket 1, while the take-up bracket 21 is driven by the drive motor 3 through the transmission component to achieve effective adjustment of the distance between the take-up bracket 21 and the fixed bracket 22, thereby effectively clamping the cylindrical bar material between the fixed bracket 22 and the take-up bracket 21, and stably clamping it.

[0041] When the length of the bar being operated is large, two sets of symmetrically arranged take-up and release brackets 21 and corresponding transmission components can be installed on the mounting bracket 1. The two sets of take-up and release brackets 21 run synchronously in opposite directions, which can increase their opening and closing distance, thereby ensuring stable clamping of cylindrical bars of larger length.

[0042] When the length of the bar stock being operated is small, a single take-up and release bracket 21 and a fixed bracket 22 can be used together. The fixed bracket 22 is relatively stationary, while the take-up and release bracket 21 is driven by the drive motor 3 and the transmission assembly. The opening and closing distance between the two is small to accommodate cylindrical bars with short lengths, but this simplifies the structure of the clamping device and controls manufacturing costs.

[0043] To ensure that the connector 41 can be stably assembled on the mounting bracket 1 in a relatively sliding posture and to achieve a fixed combination with the retractable bracket 21, the following technical solution is provided.

[0044] The mounting bracket 1 includes a base plate 11 and side plates 12 fixed to both sides of the base plate 11. The base plate 11 has two sets of strip-shaped through grooves 111 arranged in the same straight direction. The upper and lower surfaces of the base plate 11 are respectively fixed with an upper guide rail 112 and a lower guide rail 113, and the upper guide rail 112 and the lower guide rail 113 are arranged on both sides of the strip-shaped through grooves 111.

[0045] The connector 41 includes an upper positioning plate 411, a lower positioning plate 412, a connecting seat 413, an upper guide groove 414, and a lower guide groove 415. The connecting seat 413 is fixed between the upper positioning plate 411 and the lower positioning plate 412. The connecting seat 413 is arranged in the strip-shaped through groove 111. The upper guide groove 414 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the upper positioning plate 411 and slidably inserted into the upper guide rail 112. The lower guide groove 415 is fixedly installed at the top of the lower positioning plate 412 and slidably inserted into the lower guide rail 113. The retractable bracket 21 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the lower positioning plate 412.

[0046] Mounting bracket 1 adopts a structure of base plate 11 and side plate 12, which can ensure its own structural strength. Specifically, it can be made of channel steel.

[0047] Each component in connector 41 is a separate design and is assembled and fixed by bolts. Specifically, the upper guide groove 414 and the lower guide groove 415 are fixed to the upper positioning plate 411 and the lower positioning plate 412 respectively by corresponding bolt assemblies. The upper positioning plate 411, the connecting seat 413, the lower positioning plate 412, and the retractable bracket 21 are fixedly assembled by through bolt assemblies. This design facilitates the disassembly and assembly of connector 41 on mounting bracket 1 for the replacement of fixed bracket 22 or retractable bracket 21, while the strip groove 111 ensures that connector 41 is fixedly connected to the retractable bracket 21 arranged below mounting bracket 1.

[0048] The upper guide rail 112, the lower guide rail 113, and the matching upper guide groove 414 and lower guide groove 415 can ensure that the connector 41 and the take-up and take-down bracket 21 slide stably in a straight line.

[0049] To ensure that the adjusting screw 42 can be stably assembled in the mounting bracket 1 and achieve a rotary connection with the connector 41, the following technical solution is provided.

[0050] The two sets of side plates 12 of the mounting bracket 1 are fixedly connected to the connecting plate 121. The adjusting screw 42 is rotatably mounted on the connecting plate 121. The connecting piece 41 also includes a rotating seat 416 fixedly connected to the upper positioning plate 411. The rotating seat 416 is rotated with the adjusting screw 42.

[0051] The connection plate 121 ensures that the adjusting screw 42 is stably installed in a relatively rotating posture, and the rotary joint 416 provided on the connector 41 can be rotaryly connected with the adjusting screw 42, thereby driving the connector 41 to run stably in a straight line by the rotating adjusting screw 42.

[0052] To ensure that the fixed bracket 22 can be stably installed on the mounting bracket 1, and to ensure that the fixed bracket 22 and the take-up bracket 21 or two sets of take-up brackets 21 can stably clamp the cylindrical bar, the following technical solution is provided.

[0053] A pad 13 is arranged between the fixed bracket 22 and the base plate 11 of the mounting bracket 1. The fixed bracket 22 and the retractable bracket 21 are arranged at the same horizontal position. Vertically arranged clamps 23 are fixed to the outer ends of both the fixed bracket 22 and the retractable bracket 21.

[0054] The pad strip 13 can adjust the height of the fixed bracket 22, thereby ensuring that the fixed bracket 22 and the retractable bracket 21 are set at the same horizontal position. The fixed bracket 22, the pad strip 13 and the base plate 11 of the mounting bracket 1 are fixed together by bolts, which facilitates their assembly and disassembly.

[0055] The clamping plates 23 provided on the fixed bracket 22 and the take-up and put-down bracket 21 along the vertical direction can ensure effective clamping of both ends of the cylindrical bar.

[0056] To ensure that the clamping device can be stably assembled on the moving parts of the stacking or transfer equipment, and that the stacking or transfer equipment drives the clamping device and the clamped cylindrical bar to perform transfer or stacking operations, while ensuring that the drive motor 3 is stably assembled on the mounting bracket 1, the following technical solution is provided.

[0057] A connecting frame 14 is fixedly connected to the middle section of the mounting bracket 1. The connecting frame 14 has an assembly through hole 141. The drive motor 3 is fixedly installed in the connecting frame 14. A drive bevel gear 31 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 3. A transmission bevel gear 421 is fixedly connected to the inner end of the adjusting screw 42. The transmission bevel gear 421 and the drive bevel gear 31 are engaged.

[0058] The connecting frame 14 is also cut from channel steel and welded to the side plate 12 of the mounting bracket 1 to form a unified whole. The assembly through hole 141 provided on it can be connected to the transfer or stacking equipment through bolt assembly, and the transfer or stacking equipment drives the clamping device to operate.

[0059] When the drive motor 3 is running, it can drive the drive bevel gear 31 to rotate, which in turn drives the transmission bevel gear 421 and the adjusting screw 42 to operate stably.
