Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vibration damping tower production technology, specifically to quick-change tooling for vibration damping tower clamps. Background Technology

[0002] During the production of vibration damping towers, a robotic arm connected to a grappling fixture first removes the flow divider cone from the mold and sends it to a trimming machine to cut off the flow divider cone and surrounding slag. Then, a transport fixture is used to move the main body of the vibration damping tower to the next process. However, changing fixtures typically involves using flanges with bolts, and the flanges have dozens of bolts, making fixture changes cumbersome. Furthermore, manual verification of the fixture type is required to adjust the robotic arm's movement path, wasting time. On the other hand, the fixtures also require electrical circuits and air pipes for operation; haphazard placement can affect the movement range of the robotic arm and fixtures. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a quick-change fixture for shock absorber tower clamps. It allows for rapid clamp replacement by setting a first quick-change plate on a robotic arm and a second quick-change plate on the clamp, connected by two pairs of screws. Simultaneously, multiple sensors and sensor triggers are installed on both the first and second quick-change plates. Different combinations of sensors and corresponding sensor triggers distinguish the type of clamp connected to the robotic arm, eliminating the need for manual confirmation and making the process more convenient and efficient. Furthermore, air pipe connection components and circuit connection components are provided on both the first and second quick-change plates for easy consolidation and fixation of electrical conduits.

Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 3 The quick-change fixture for the shock absorber tower according to a preferred embodiment of this application includes a quick-change assembly 1, a sensing assembly 2, an air pipe docking assembly 3, and a circuit docking assembly 4. The quick-change assembly 1 is provided with a first quick-change plate 11 for connecting a robotic arm and a second quick-change plate 12 for connecting different types of fixtures. The first quick-change plate 11 and the second quick-change plate 12 are threaded together by two pairs of screws 121. The sensing assembly 2 includes several sensors 21 disposed on the first quick-change plate 11 and several sensor 21 triggers disposed on the second quick-change plate 12 and cooperating with the sensors 21. The air pipe docking assembly 3 includes several main air pipe docking plugs 31 embedded in the first quick-change plate 11 and several auxiliary air pipe docking plugs 32 embedded in the second quick-change plate 12 and cooperating with the main air pipe docking plugs 31. A sealing structure 33 is provided between the main air pipe docking plugs 31 and the auxiliary air pipe docking plugs 32. The circuit docking assembly 4 includes a main circuit docking plug 41 embedded on the first quick-change plate 11 and an auxiliary circuit docking plug 42 embedded on the second quick-change plate 12 and cooperating with the main circuit docking plug 41.

[0027] According to the embodiment of this utility model, a first quick-change plate 11 is set on the robotic arm, and a second quick-change plate 12 is set on the fixture. The first quick-change plate 11 and the second quick-change plate 12 are connected by two pairs of screws 121, thereby quickly completing the fixture replacement. At the same time, multiple sensors 21 and sensor 21 triggers are respectively installed on the first quick-change plate 11 and the second quick-change plate 12. Different sensors 21 and corresponding sensor 21 triggers are combined to distinguish the type of fixture connected to the robotic arm, eliminating the need for manual confirmation and making it more convenient and faster. In addition, an air pipe docking assembly 3 and an electrical circuit docking assembly 4 are set on the first quick-change plate 11 and the second quick-change plate 12 to facilitate the convergence and fixation of electrical pipelines. It should be noted that multiple sensors 21 can be combined in any number to distinguish the fixture, thereby expanding the types and number of fixtures that this quick-change tooling can connect to.

[0028] The following detailed description uses specific examples:

[0029] Please see Figure 3 The sealing structure 33 includes a sealing ring 331 and a conical connecting groove 332, and the sealing ring 331 is fitted onto the main air pipe.

[0030] The end of the main air pipe connector 32 faces the auxiliary air pipe connector 32. The tapered connecting groove 332 is formed on the second quick-release plate and corresponds to and communicates with the auxiliary air pipe connector 32. By using the sealing ring 331 in conjunction with the tapered connecting groove 332, a seal can be formed between the main air pipe connector 31 and the auxiliary air pipe connector 32, thereby preventing air pipe leakage.

[0031] Please see Figure 2 The main airway connector 31 and the auxiliary airway connector 32 are marked with labels 34. By marking the positions of the airway connectors, different airway connectors can be distinguished, ensuring that the airways connected to the main airway connector 31 and the auxiliary airway connector 32 are consistent and preventing incorrect insertion.

[0032] Please see Figure 2 The two pairs of screws 121 are detachably disposed on both sides of the second quick-change plate 12. Two pairs of connecting plates 111, which mate with the screws 121, are disposed on both sides of the first quick-change plate 11. Each connecting plate 111 has a pair of threaded holes. Connecting the two quick-change plates via the two pairs of screws 121 and connecting plates 111 is more efficient than directly connecting the robotic arm and fixture via flanges.

[0033] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The first quick-change plate 11 is provided with several positioning elements 112, which are located near the screw 121. The second quick-change plate 12 is provided with several positioning holes 122 that mate with the positioning elements 112. The edge of the second quick-change plate 12 is provided with several auxiliary positioning blocks 123, and the first quick-change plate 11 is provided with several positioning grooves 113 that mate with the auxiliary positioning blocks 123. The positioning elements 112 and the auxiliary positioning blocks 123 can better position the two quick-change plates, thereby ensuring the smooth connection of the screw 121 with the connecting plate 111, the air pipe connection assembly 3, and the circuit connection assembly 4.

[0034] Please see Figure 3 Both the first quick-change plate 11 and the second quick-change plate 12 are provided with connecting flanges 114, and locating pins 1141 are provided on the connecting flanges 114. The connection flanges 114 and locating pins 1141 facilitate direct connection to clamps or robotic arms.

[0035] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0036] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
