Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automated clamping technology, specifically a shock-absorbing and buffering device for automated equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Automated equipment refers to large-scale complete sets of equipment that can operate or be controlled automatically according to prescribed procedures or instructions without human intervention. Also known as automated devices, they consist of a main unit and auxiliary devices. They are simple in structure and easy to operate, but are significantly limited by manufacturing processes and are generally only suitable for small-scale production with small batches and many product varieties. Their advantages include lower investment and easier maintenance, but their disadvantages include incomplete control over product quality and inability to guarantee product quality stability.

[0003] In the production of automated equipment, many automated devices rely on buffers. Buffers not only reduce large direct impact forces but also protect the equipment from damage caused by excessive or frequent impacts. Commonly used buffer mechanisms consist of oil-free bushings, guide rods, connecting plates, and compression springs connected together. However, the machining accuracy and installation requirements of oil-free bushings, guide rods, and connecting plates are relatively high. If any of these components malfunctions, the buffer mechanism may jam and stop operating. Therefore, it is necessary to design a buffer mechanism with low machining accuracy and low installation requirements that can meet the usage requirements and avoid jamming.

[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a shock-absorbing and buffering device for automated equipment to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a shock-absorbing and buffering device for automated equipment to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A shock-absorbing and buffering device for automated equipment includes a lower connecting plate. A guide rod is fixedly connected to the top of the lower connecting plate. A lower spring is sleeved on the side surface of the guide rod. A guide sleeve is fixedly connected to the top of the guide rod. A ball spring is sleeved on the side surface of the guide sleeve. A universal fixing nut is threaded onto the side surface of the guide sleeve. An upper connecting plate is provided on the top of the lower connecting plate. A ball seat is fixedly connected inside the upper connecting plate. A universal ball is movably connected inside the ball seat. A guide rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the universal ball. An upper spring is sleeved on the side surface of the guide rod. Through the cooperation of the guide rod, the guide rod, and the guide sleeve, the upper spring, the lower spring, and the ball spring can play a buffering role, preventing damage to the product when used downwards and damage to the equipment when used upwards. The universal ball cooperates with the guide sleeve and the ball seat. There is a ball spring below. The compression state of the ball spring is adjusted by the universal fixing nut to control the eccentricity adaptability of the buffer mechanism, thereby avoiding the phenomenon of jamming and stopping operation due to poor processing accuracy, misalignment, and high installation requirements.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the lower connecting plate has a through hole one inside, and the upper connecting plate has a through hole two inside. The diameter of the through hole two is smaller than the diameter of the through hole one, and the through hole one and the through hole two are connected.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a fixing plate is fixedly connected to one side of the lower connecting plate, and a connecting hole is opened inside the fixing plate, and a connecting plate is movably connected inside the connecting hole.

[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model: a connecting rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plate, a connecting spring is sleeved on the side surface of the connecting rod, a tapered pin is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod, and a knob is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting rod. The tapered pin and the tapered hole cooperate to make installation and disassembly more convenient and quick. The tapered pin also has good self-locking properties, which can effectively prevent loosening after installation. At the same time, it has strong tensile and shear resistance, which can prevent the connection between the automated equipment and the device from loosening due to vibration or impact, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the entire structure.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the lower connecting plate is the same size as the upper connecting plate, the lower springs are distributed in a rectangular array, and the side surface of the guide sleeve is provided with external threads and is adapted to the universal fixing nut.

[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the diameter of the ball spring is smaller than the diameter of the universal fixing nut, the universal balls are distributed in a rectangular array, and the upper spring and the lower spring have the same diameter.

[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the fixing plates are arranged in a rectangular array, the diameter of the connecting spring is slightly smaller than the diameter of the connecting disc, and the conical pin is conical in shape and adapted to the conical hole.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. Through the cooperation of guide rod one, guide rod two and guide sleeve, the upper spring, lower spring and ball spring can play a buffering role. When in use, it will not crush the product when it is downward and will not damage the equipment when it is upward. The universal ball cooperates with the guide sleeve and ball seat. There is a ball spring at the bottom. The compression state of the ball spring is adjusted by the universal fixing nut to control the eccentricity of the buffer mechanism, thereby avoiding the phenomenon of jamming and stopping operation caused by poor machining accuracy, misalignment, high installation requirements.

[0016] 2. The use of tapered pins and tapered holes makes installation and disassembly more convenient and quick. The tapered pins also have good self-locking properties, which can effectively prevent loosening after installation. At the same time, they have strong tensile and shear resistance, which can prevent the connection between the automated equipment and the device from loosening due to vibration or impact, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the entire structure.

[0023] 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.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 5 This embodiment provides a shock-absorbing and buffering device for automated equipment, including a lower connecting plate 1. A guide rod 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the lower connecting plate 1. A lower spring 3 is sleeved on the side surface of the guide rod 2. A guide sleeve 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the guide rod 2. A ball spring 5 is sleeved on the side surface of the guide sleeve 4. A universal fixing nut 6 is threadedly connected to the side surface of the guide sleeve 4. An upper connecting plate 7 is provided on the top of the lower connecting plate 1. A ball seat 8 is fixedly connected inside the upper connecting plate 7. A universal ball 9 is movably connected inside the ball seat 8. A guide rod 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the universal ball 9. An upper spring 11 is sleeved on the side surface of the guide rod 10. A through hole 1 is opened inside the lower connecting plate 1. 2. The upper connecting plate 7 has a through hole 2 13 inside. The diameter of through hole 2 13 is smaller than the diameter of through hole 1 12. Through hole 1 12 communicates with through hole 2 13. When in use, the operator determines the installation position of the device, then aligns the conical pin 19 with the conical groove opened on the automated equipment, holds the knob 20 and presses it down. The knob 20 drives the connecting plate 16 to move downward. When the connecting plate 16 moves downward, the connecting plate 16 pushes the conical pin 19 into the conical hole through the connecting rod 17. At this time, the connecting spring 18 is in a compressed state. The operator rotates the knob 20 to make the conical pin 19 rotate in the conical hole. The conical pin 19 and the conical hole cooperate to lock the device with the automated equipment, which is convenient for installation.

[0026] Example 2

[0027] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 5This embodiment is based on the previous embodiment, but differs in that a fixing plate 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the lower connecting plate 1. A connecting hole 15 is provided inside the fixing plate 14, and a connecting disc 16 is movably connected inside the connecting hole 15. A connecting rod 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting disc 16. A connecting spring 18 is sleeved on the side surface of the connecting rod 17. A conical pin 19 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod 17, and a knob 20 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting rod 17. The lower connecting plate 1 and the upper connecting plate 7 are the same size. The lower springs 3 are arranged in a rectangular array. The side surface of the guide sleeve 4 is provided with external threads and is adapted to the universal fixing nut 6. The diameter of the ball spring 5 is smaller than the diameter of the universal fixing nut 6. The universal balls 9 are arranged in a rectangular array. The upper spring 11 has the same diameter as the lower spring 3. The fixing plate... The upper connecting plate 7 is arranged in a rectangular array. The diameter of the connecting spring 18 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the connecting plate 16. The conical pin 19 is conical in shape and fits the conical hole. When the automated equipment is subjected to external impact or vibration, the upper connecting plate 7 will move relative to the lower connecting plate 1. At this time, the upper spring 11 and the lower spring 3 begin to compress, absorbing and dispersing the impact force. At the same time, the ball spring 5 will also be compressed to a certain extent, further increasing the buffering effect. The universal ball 9 rotates freely inside the ball seat 8, allowing the upper connecting plate 7 to move and adjust flexibly in multiple directions. When the external force disappears, the upper spring 11 and the lower spring 3 will gradually return to their original state, driving the upper connecting plate 7 and the lower connecting plate 1 to return to their initial position. The eccentricity of the buffer mechanism is controlled by adjusting the compression state of the ball spring 5 through the universal fixing nut 6.
