[0004] However, especially when facing the rapid installation and disassembly of a large number of automotive pipe fittings, operators need to tighten or loosen the screws one by one, which consumes a lot of time and manpower. Therefore, an automotive clamp is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[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] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a vehicle clamp, including a base 1, a retaining ring 2 hinged to the top of the base 1, the retaining ring 2 being movable for clamping, a vertical plate 3 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, an adjustment mechanism 4 provided above the base 1, the adjustment mechanism 4 including a limiting plate 406, a first screw 404 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the limiting plate 406, the limiting plate 406 providing mounting for the first screw 404, allowing the first screw 404 to rotate stably on the limiting plate 406, a threaded sleeve threadedly connected to the outer wall of the first screw 404, the rotation of the first screw 404 causing the threaded sleeve to move, a threaded plate 405 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded sleeve, the movement of the threaded sleeve causing the threaded plate 405 to move in the same direction. In the first step, a connecting rod 410 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the threaded plate 405. The connecting rod 410 provides a limit for the threaded plate 405. Therefore, the rotation of the first screw 404 will drive the threaded plate 405 to move. One end of the connecting rod 410 is fixedly connected to a fixing plate 409, which serves as a connection. The bottom of the fixing plate 409 is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 408, so that when the connecting rod 410 moves vertically up and down, it can drive the fixing plate 409 to move together. The outer wall of the connecting plate 408 is fixedly connected to a hinge plate 407, which serves as a connection. The outer wall of the hinge plate 407 is hinged to the outer wall of the retaining ring 2. This allows the retaining plate 409 to move when it is driven to move, thereby driving the retaining ring 2 to move around its own hinge point.
[0025] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3A fixed base 401 is fixedly connected to the top of the vertical plate 3. A worm gear 402 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the fixed base 401. The worm gear 402 is rotated by manual control. A worm wheel 403 is meshed with the outer wall of the worm gear 402. The rotation of the worm gear 402 will drive the worm wheel 403 to rotate. The outer wall of the inner ring of the worm wheel 403 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the first screw 404. The rotation of the worm wheel 403 drives the first screw 404 to rotate. There are two limiting plates 406, which are set one above the other. The limiting plate 406 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the vertical plate 3, allowing the limiting plate 406 to be installed stably. A limiting rod is fixedly connected between the two limiting plates 406, and the limiting rod provides a limiting effect for the threaded plate 405. The outer wall of the limiting rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the threaded plate 405. A through groove is opened on the outer wall of the vertical plate 3, and the connecting rod 410 passes through the through groove and is slidably connected to the inner wall of the through groove. The through groove provides space for the connecting rod 410 to move through. A baffle 411 is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting rod 410, and the baffle 411 has a blocking effect.
[0026] Reference Figure 2 - Figure 4 The top of the retaining ring 2 is provided with an auxiliary mechanism 5, which includes a mounting base 501. The bottom of the mounting base 501 is fixedly connected to the top of the retaining ring 2, providing a stable mounting platform. The inner wall of the mounting base 501 is threadedly connected to a second screw 502. The bottom end of the second screw 502 is rotatably connected to a pressure plate 503. By controlling the rotation of the second screw 502, the pressure plate 503 can be driven to move vertically up and down. The pressure plate 503 is arc-shaped. The outer wall of the second screw 502 is threadedly connected to a damping nut 504, which provides damping and avoids axial force from affecting the stability of the pressure plate 503.
[0027] Working principle: The worm gear 402 is rotated by manually operating an external tool. The rotation of the worm gear 402 will drive the worm wheel 403 to rotate, which in turn drives the first screw 404 to rotate. Under the limit of the limit rod, the entire threaded plate 405 will move vertically up and down. As the threaded plate 405 moves vertically up and down, the connecting rod 410 will follow suit. Since the retaining ring 2 is hinged to the base 1, the connecting rod 410 will slide left and right in the through groove, thereby adapting to the arc movement of one side of the fixed plate 409 where the retaining ring 2 is located, thus completing the clamping effect.
[0028] After clamping is completed, the second screw 502 can be rotated to drive the pressure plate 503 to press down, and the pressure plate 503 can be used to further tighten it. The arc-shaped surfaces on both sides of the pressure plate 503 naturally limit the rotation when in contact with the cable. The pressure plate 503 is flexible, avoiding wear on the cable caused by rigid contact. The second screw 502 can also be reversed appropriately to loosen the clamping force, creating a larger gap between the cables, which can better promote heat dissipation.
[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
