Detailed Implementation
[0022] The present patent can be further understood through the specific embodiments given below, but they are not intended to limit the present patent.
[0023] Example 1: A clamping and centering assembly for a strip-shaped component includes: a left base 1 and a right base 2 spaced apart. The upper surfaces of the left base 1 and the right base 2 are each equipped with a left support plate 91 and a right support plate 92 that can move left and right, respectively, through at least one set of first guide rails 81 and first sliders 82. A locking slider 11 mounted on the first guide rail 81 is connected to the first slider 82. The locking slider 11 has a threaded through hole 12. One end of a bolt 13 is embedded in the threaded through hole 12. When the bolt 13 is in the locked state, the end face of the bolt 13 embedded in the threaded through hole 12 is tightly fitted with the first guide rail 81. When the bolt 13 is in the unlocked state, the bolt 13 is loosely fitted with the first guide rail 81.
[0024] A left push plate 31 and a right push plate 32 are movably mounted on the upper surfaces of the left support plate 91 and the right support plate 92. The left push plate 31, which can move left and right, is connected to the piston rod of a left cylinder 51 mounted on the left support plate 91. The right base 2, which moves in the opposite direction to the left push plate 31, is connected to the piston rod of a right cylinder 52 mounted on the right support plate 92. The left cylinder 51 and the right cylinder 52 extend and retract synchronously. The right end face of the left push plate 31 extends to the outside of the left base 1 and is equipped with at least one left push block 41. The left end face of the right push plate 32 extends to the outside of the right base 2 and is equipped with at least one right push block 42 corresponding to the left push block 41.
[0025] Before use, according to the model and length of the strip workpiece to be processed, first place the bolts in the unlocked state and adjust the position of the left and right support plates on the first guide rail so that the position of the left and right support plates matches the length of the strip workpiece to be processed. Then place the bolts in the locked state to fix the position of the left and right support plates on the first guide rail. This can adapt to workpieces of different models and lengths, and also improve the centering accuracy.
[0026] When the left cylinder 51 and the right cylinder 52 switch from the first state to the second state, the left push plate 31 and the right push plate 32 move closer to each other until the corresponding left push block 41 and right push block 42 each make contact with the end face of the strip workpiece 100 located between them.
[0027] The aforementioned threaded through hole 12 is located in the middle region of the upper surface of the locking slider 11.
[0028] An elastic block 14 is installed at one end of the bolt 13 that is embedded in the threaded through hole 12. When the bolt 13 is in the locked state, the elastic block 14 is in pressure contact with the first guide rail 81.
[0029] A wrench part 15 is provided on one end of the bolt 13 located outside the locking slider 11.
[0030] The aforementioned left push plate 31 and right push plate 32 are each mounted on the left base 1 and right base 2 via at least one set of second slide rails 61 and second sliders 62.
[0031] Both the left push block 41 and the right push block 42 mentioned above are flexible push blocks.
[0032] Example 2: A clamping and centering assembly for a strip-shaped component, comprising: a left base 1 and a right base 2 spaced apart, wherein each of the upper surfaces of the left base 1 and the right base 2 is equipped with a left support plate 91 and a right support plate 92 that can move left and right, respectively, via at least one set of first guide rails 81 and first sliders 82; a locking slider 11 mounted on the first guide rails 81 is connected to the left support plate 91 and the right support plate 92; the locking slider 11 has a threaded through hole 12; one end of a bolt 13 is embedded in the threaded through hole 12; when the bolt 13 is in the locked state, the end face of the bolt 13 embedded in the threaded through hole 12 is tightly fitted with the first guide rail 81; when the bolt 13 is in the unlocked state, the bolt 13 is loosely fitted with the first guide rail 81.
[0033] A left push plate 31 and a right push plate 32 are movably mounted on the upper surfaces of the left support plate 91 and the right support plate 92. The left push plate 31, which can move left and right, is connected to the piston rod of a left cylinder 51 mounted on the left support plate 91. The right base 2, which moves in the opposite direction to the left push plate 31, is connected to the piston rod of a right cylinder 52 mounted on the right support plate 92. The left cylinder 51 and the right cylinder 52 extend and retract synchronously. The right end face of the left push plate 31 extends to the outside of the left base 1 and is equipped with at least one left push block 41. The left end face of the right push plate 32 extends to the outside of the right base 2 and is equipped with at least one right push block 42 corresponding to the left push block 41.
[0034] When the left cylinder 51 and the right cylinder 52 switch from the first state to the second state, the left push plate 31 and the right push plate 32 move closer to each other until the corresponding left push block 41 and right push block 42 each make contact with the end face of the strip workpiece 100 located between them.
[0035] In normal conditions, the left and right cylinders are in the first state, at which time the distance between the left and right push blocks is at its maximum.
[0036] The strip-shaped workpiece is transported between the left and right push blocks by an external transport platform. At this time, the left and right cylinders are synchronously driven to switch from the first state to the second state. The left and right push blocks move closer to each other until they are in contact with the end face of one end of the strip-shaped workpiece, thereby achieving the centering and calibration of the workpiece.
[0037] The aforementioned threaded through hole 12 is located in the middle region of the upper surface of the locking slider 11.
[0038] An elastic block 14 is installed at one end of the bolt 13 that is embedded in the threaded through hole 12. When the bolt 13 is in the locked state, the elastic block 14 is in pressure contact with the first guide rail 81.
[0039] Both the left push block 41 and the right push block 42 mentioned above are silicone blocks; there are two of each of the left push block 41 and the right push block 42.
[0040] The aforementioned left cylinder 51 and right cylinder 52 are each mounted on the left side of the left push plate 31 and the right side of the right push plate 32 via a support base 7.
[0041] The first state of the left cylinder 51 and the right cylinder 52 is the piston rod retracted state, and the second state of the left cylinder 51 and the right cylinder 52 is the piston rod extended state.
[0042] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0043] Before use, according to the model and length of the strip workpiece to be processed, first place the bolts in the unlocked state and adjust the position of the left and right support plates on the first guide rail so that the position of the left and right support plates matches the length of the strip workpiece to be processed. Then place the bolts in the locked state to fix the position of the left and right support plates on the first guide rail. This can adapt to workpieces of different models and lengths, and also improve the centering accuracy.
[0044] In normal conditions, the left and right cylinders are in the first state, at which time the distance between the left and right push blocks is at its maximum.
[0045] The strip-shaped workpiece is transported between the left and right push blocks by an external transport platform. At this time, the left and right cylinders are synchronously driven to switch from the first state to the second state. The left and right push blocks move closer to each other until they are in contact with the end face of one end of the strip-shaped workpiece, thereby achieving the centering and calibration of the workpiece.
[0046] The clamping and centering assembly using the aforementioned strip-shaped component achieves centering of the strip-shaped workpiece in its width direction through synchronous and opposing left and right push blocks, thereby calibrating the workpiece's positional accuracy and improving the precision and quality of subsequent workpiece processing. Furthermore, it can adjust the distance between the left and right push plates mounted on the left and right support plates according to the workpiece's length, thus adapting to workpieces of different models and lengths and improving versatility and centering accuracy.

They should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
