Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of jigs, specifically to a jig for printing a nail cartridge protective cover. Background Technology

[0002] A staple cartridge cover printing fixture is a device used to fix and restrict the staple cartridge cover. After the staple cartridge cover is fixed on the fixture, the fixture is moved to the bottom of the printing equipment, and the printing equipment prints on the staple cartridge cover on the fixture. Existing staple cartridge cover printing fixtures include a fixture body with a limiting groove on the fixture body that matches the outer contour of the staple cartridge cover to be printed. Before printing, the staple cartridge cover is placed in the limiting groove of the fixture, and the limiting groove limits the staple cartridge cover.

[0003] However, in the existing technology, the printing fixture for the staple cartridge cover generates a certain amount of friction between the printing head and the staple cartridge cover during printing. This can cause the staple cartridge cover to be "squeezed out" of the fixture's limiting groove by the printing head, resulting in printing interruptions and an increased product defect rate. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a printing fixture for a nail cartridge protective cover.

The fixture is mainly used to fix the staple cartridge protective cover to the device, and then the fixture is transferred to a printing machine, where the printing machine prints the staple cartridge protective cover on the fixture. After printing is completed, the staple cartridge protective cover is removed, and then the next printing operation is repeated.

[0022] The fixture includes:

[0023] The fixture body 1 has a limiting groove 10, which is recessed inward from the outer surface of the fixture body 1 to a predetermined depth.

[0024] The clamping mechanism 2 is used to clamp and fix the nail cartridge protective cover placed in the limiting groove 10 of the fixture body 1. The clamping mechanism 2 includes a drive cylinder 21 and a clamping member 27. The drive cylinder 21 has a piston rod 22. The piston rod 22 extends and retracts under the drive of the drive cylinder 21. The piston rod 22 drives the clamping member 27 to move. When the clamping member 27 moves to a preset position, the clamping member 27 fixes and holds the nail cartridge protective cover on the fixture body 1.

[0025] Please refer to some embodiments of this application. Figure 2 The clamping mechanism 2 further includes a support block and a support rod. The support rod is fixedly connected to the clamping member 27 on one hand, and pivotally connected to the support block on the other hand, so that the support rod can pivot relative to the support block. The piston rod 22 of the drive cylinder 21 is connected to the support rod, so that when the piston rod 22 extends or retracts, it drives the support rod to pivot relative to the support block. The pivoting of the support rod simultaneously drives the clamping member 27 to move. It should be explained that pivotal connection means that the support rod is fixedly connected to the support block on one hand, and can rotate relative to the support block on the other hand.

[0026] Please refer to some embodiments of this application. Figure 2The support block includes a first support block 23 and a second support block 24, which have the same structure. The support rod includes a first support rod 25, a second support rod 26, and a converging section 28, which have the same structure.

The first support block 23 and the fourth support block 24 are pivotally connected to the converging section 28 via a first pivot 211, thereby allowing the assembly of the first support rod 25, the second support rod 26, and the converging section 28 to pivot relative to the first support block 23 and the second support block 24.

[0027] Please refer to some embodiments of this application. Figure 2 The first support rod 25 is provided with a first sliding groove 250, and the second support rod 26 is provided with a second sliding groove (not shown in the figure). The structure of the second sliding groove is the same as that of the first sliding groove 250. The first sliding groove 250 passes through the first support rod 25, and the second sliding groove passes through the second support rod 26. The first sliding groove 250 and the second sliding groove are aligned. There is a preset distance between the first support rod 25 and the second support rod 26, so that an insertion groove 29 is formed between the first support rod 25 and the second support rod 26. The end 240 of the piston rod 22 is inserted into the insertion groove 29, and the sliding rod 210 passes through the first sliding groove and the second sliding groove to fix the piston rod 22, the first support rod 25, and the second support rod 26 together, so that when the piston rod 22 extends or retracts, it drives the support rod to pivot relative to the support block.

[0028] Please refer to some embodiments of this application. Figure 2 The first sliding groove 250 and the second sliding groove are arc-shaped grooves with a preset length. When the piston rod 22 extends or retracts, it drives the sliding rod 210 to slide in the first sliding groove 250 and the second sliding groove, thereby driving the support rod to move up and down. In this application, since the first sliding groove and the second sliding groove are arc-shaped grooves, when the piston rod 22 extends or retracts, it drives the sliding rod to slide in the sliding groove, which in turn forces the entire support rod to pivot relative to the support block.

[0029] Please refer to some embodiments of this application. Figure 2The piston rod 22 has a first outer plane 241 on its end 240, and a portion of the first outer plane 241 extends into the insertion groove 29 between the first support rod 25 and the second support rod 26. In this application, since the outer surfaces of the first support rod 25 and the second support rod 26 are flat, a portion of the end 240 of the piston rod 22 is set as the first outer plane 241 for better fit, so that the piston rod 22 can be more easily inserted into the insertion groove 29.

[0030] Please refer to some embodiments of this application. Figure 2 The first support block 23 includes a first component segment 231, a second component segment 232, and a third component segment 233.
