Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical processing and assembly technology, specifically to a pallet guide rail assembly fixture. Background Technology

[0002] Guide rails are used in linear reciprocating motion applications. By assembling guide rails with pallets, the linear movement of the pallets can be achieved. Guide rails are generally assembled manually. During assembly, the guide rails need to be clamped onto the pallet. The existing assembly method requires first clamping one guide rail onto one side of the pallet, and then clamping the other guide rail onto the other side of the pallet. This assembly method has low work efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a pallet guide rail assembly fixture, which fixes the pallet by positioning components to prevent the pallet from moving during the assembly of the guide rail, thus ensuring good stability; by using two pushing devices to act on the guide rails on both sides of the pallet respectively, the guide rails on both sides of the pallet can be assembled simultaneously, resulting in high work efficiency and a simple assembly method.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution used in this utility model is as follows:

[0005] The present invention relates to a pallet guide rail assembly fixture, comprising a base and positioning components disposed on the base; pushing devices are provided on both sides of the base, the base being used to accommodate the pallet, the positioning components being used to fix the pallet, and the pushing devices being used to push the guide rails installed on both sides of the pallet to engage with the pallet.

[0006] Preferably, multiple positioning elements are provided, and the positioning elements position the pallet along the length and width directions of the base.

[0007] Preferably, the positioning member has a first positioning plane and a second positioning plane. The first positioning plane is parallel to the length direction of the chassis, and the second positioning plane is parallel to the width direction of the chassis. The first positioning plane and the second positioning plane respectively abut against the tray housed on the base.

[0008] Preferably, in the length direction of the base, at least some of the positioning members position the pallet in opposite directions; in the width direction of the base, at least some of the positioning members position the pallet in opposite directions.

[0009] Preferably, at least some of the positioning elements are spaced apart along the length direction of the base, and at least some of the positioning elements are spaced apart along the width direction of the base.

[0010] Preferably, the pushing device includes a push rod and a guide bracket, the guide bracket having a guide hole; the push rod is movably disposed in the guide hole; the push rod is used to push the guide rail to move.

[0011] Preferably, the surface of the push rod is provided with a protrusion, the horizontal height of which is higher than the horizontal height of the guide bracket.

[0012] Preferably, the pushing device includes a linkage rod and a toggle rod; the toggle rod is hinged to the base, one end of the toggle rod is hinged to one end of the linkage rod, and the other end of the linkage rod is hinged to the push rod.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the pallet guide rail assembly fixture of this utility model are mainly reflected in the following aspects: the pallet is supported by the base, and the two pushing devices act on the guide rails on both sides of the pallet respectively, so that the guide rails on both sides of the pallet can be assembled at the same time, which is highly efficient; at the same time, the pallet is fixed by the positioning parts to prevent the pallet from moving during the assembly of the guide rails, which is stable.

[0014] The pallet is fixed by positioning components along both the length and width directions, which can restrict the pallet's movement in both the lateral and longitudinal directions. At the same time, a first positioning plane parallel to the length direction of the chassis is set to achieve longitudinal positioning of the pallet, and a second positioning plane parallel to the width direction of the chassis is set to achieve lateral positioning of the pallet. The structure is simple.

[0015] Meanwhile, along the length and width of the base, some positioning components position the pallet in opposite directions; the positioning components can restrict the pallet from moving to the left along the length of the base, and also restrict the pallet from moving to the right along the length of the base; the positioning components can restrict the pallet from moving upward along the width of the base, and also restrict the pallet from moving downward along the width of the base.

[0016] Positioning elements are spaced apart along the length and width of the base. The positioning elements are distributed in different areas of the base, and multiple positioning elements contact different positions of the pallet to fix the pallet, resulting in good stability.

[0017] By setting a guide bracket to guide the push rod, the push rod can move along the axial direction of the guide hole, resulting in good stability of the push rod movement. At the same time, a protrusion is set to limit the range of motion of the push rod and prevent the push rod from disengaging from the guide bracket.

[0018] This invention supports the tray with a base and uses two pushing devices that interact with the guide rails on both sides of the tray, allowing for simultaneous assembly of the guide rails on both sides. This results in high work efficiency and a simple assembly method. Furthermore, positioning components secure the tray, preventing movement during guide rail assembly and ensuring good stability.

[0028] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can better understand this utility model and implement it. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit this utility model. In this embodiment, it should be understood that the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "front", "back", "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 accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model 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 limiting this utility model.

[0029] It should be noted that when one element is considered to be "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to and integrated with the other element, or there may be an intervening element present. The terms "mounted," "one end," "the other end," and similar expressions used in this invention are for illustrative purposes only.

[0030] This embodiment provides a tray guide rail assembly fixture, such as Figures 1-7 As shown, the device includes a base 1 and positioning components 2 mounted on the base 1. Pushing devices 3 are provided on both sides of the base 1. The base 1 is used to accommodate a tray 4, the positioning components 2 are used to fix the tray 4, and the pushing devices 3 are used to push the guide rails 5 mounted on both sides of the tray 4 to engage with the tray 4. The base 1 supports the tray 4, and the two pushing devices 3 act on the guide rails 5 on both sides of the tray 4 respectively, allowing for simultaneous assembly of the guide rails 5 on both sides of the tray 4, resulting in high work efficiency. Simultaneously, the positioning components 2 fix the tray 4, preventing it from moving during guide rail assembly, thus ensuring good stability.

[0031] The positioning element 2 is provided in multiple parts, and the positioning element 2 positions the tray 4 along the length and width directions of the base 1. It can restrict the movement of the tray 4 in both the lateral and longitudinal directions.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, at least some of the positioning members 2 are spaced apart along the length direction of the base 1, and at least some of the positioning members 2 are spaced apart along the width direction of the base 1. (Refer to...) Figure 1 As shown, the positioning elements 2 are distributed at intervals both along the length and width of the base 1. The positioning elements 2 are spaced apart along the length and width of the base 1, and are distributed in different areas of the base 1. Multiple positioning elements 2 contact different positions of the tray 4 to fix the tray 4, resulting in good stability.

[0033] The positioning component 2 has a first positioning plane 21 and a second positioning plane 22. The first positioning plane 21 is parallel to the length direction of the chassis, and the second positioning plane 22 is parallel to the width direction of the chassis. The first positioning plane 21 and the second positioning plane 22 respectively abut against the tray 4 housed on the base 1. The first positioning plane 21, which is parallel to the length direction of the chassis, achieves longitudinal positioning of the tray 4; the second positioning plane 22, which is parallel to the width direction of the chassis, achieves lateral positioning of the tray 4. The structure is simple.

[0034] Along the length of the base 1, at least some of the positioning members 2 position the tray 4 in opposite directions; the positioning members 2 can restrict the tray 4 from moving to the left along the length of the base 1, and can also restrict the tray 4 from moving to the right along the length of the base 1; along the width of the base 1, at least some of the positioning members 2 position the tray 4 in opposite directions; the positioning members 2 can restrict the tray 4 from moving upward along the width of the base 1, and can also restrict the tray 4 from moving downward along the width of the base 1.

[0035] The pushing device 3 includes a toggle lever 31, a linkage lever 32, a push rod 33, and a guide bracket 34. The guide bracket 34 has a guide hole (not shown in the figure). The push rod 33 is movably disposed in the guide hole. The push rod 33 is used to push the guide rail to move. By setting the guide bracket 34 to guide the push rod 33, the push rod 33 can move along the axial direction of the guide hole, and the movement of the push rod 33 has good stability.

[0036] The actuating rod 31 is hinged to the base 1. One end of the actuating rod 31 is hinged to one end of the linkage rod 32, and the other end of the linkage rod 32 is hinged to the push rod 33. The push rod 33 is driven to move up and down by swinging the actuating rod 31.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, a protrusion 331 is provided on the surface of the push rod 33, and the horizontal height of the protrusion 331 is higher than the horizontal height of the guide bracket 34. The protrusion 331 restricts the range of motion of the push rod 33 and prevents the push rod 33 from disengaging from the guide bracket 34.

[0038] Reference Figures 3-7 As shown, hooks 41 are provided on both sides of the tray 4; slots 51 are provided on the guide rail 5; when assembling the guide rail 5, align the slots 51 of the guide rail 5 with the hooks 41 of the tray 4, then place the guide rail 5 on the tray 4, and then swing the lever 31 to drive the push rod 33 to extend and contact the guide rail 5. The push rod 33 pushes the guide rail 5 to move so that the hooks 41 clamp the guide rail 5.
