Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of workpiece clamping technology, specifically a workpiece clamping fixture for cutting equipment processing. Background Technology

[0002] Workpiece clamps for cutting equipment are specialized devices used to precisely position and securely hold workpieces during cutting processes (such as laser cutting, plasma cutting, mechanical sawing, and waterjet cutting). Their core function is to fix the workpiece in a preset position using mechanical structures or auxiliary components, ensuring that the workpiece does not shift, vibrate, or deform during cutting, thereby guaranteeing dimensional accuracy, shape consistency, and improving processing safety and efficiency.

[0003] However, while existing workpiece fixtures for cutting equipment can clamp workpieces of different shapes, when clamping irregularly shaped workpieces, the fixtures are not easy to replace the clamping plates, and the clamping is unstable and not secure, which leads to the workpiece moving during processing. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a workpiece fixture for cutting equipment, which solves the problems of inconvenient clamp plate replacement, unstable and insecure clamping during workpiece clamping, leading to workpiece movement during processing.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a workpiece clamp for cutting equipment, comprising a lower clamp, a sliding frame and a lower protective pad fixedly connected to the top of the lower clamp, an adjusting seat slidably connected to the inner side of the sliding frame, an upper clamp bolted to one side of the adjusting seat, an upper mounting groove on the front of the upper clamp, an upper sliding groove on the inner side of the upper mounting groove, an upper clamping plate installed on the inner side of the upper mounting groove via the upper sliding groove, a lower mounting groove on the front of the lower clamp, a lower sliding groove on the inner side of the lower mounting groove, a lower clamping plate installed on the inner side of the lower mounting groove via the lower sliding groove, an adjusting groove on one side of both the lower and upper clamps, a locking rod slidably connected to the inner side of the adjusting groove, a return spring installed on the outer side of the locking rod, and a locking slot on one side of both the upper and lower clamps.

[0006] Preferably, a mounting plate is welded to the bottom of the lower clamp, and mounting openings are provided at the four corners of the top of the mounting plate.

[0007] Preferably, an adjusting motor is fixedly connected inside the lower clamp, and the driving end of the adjusting motor is fixed with an adjusting screw through a coupling. The adjusting screw is threadedly connected to the adjusting seat.

[0008] Preferably, upper slides are fixedly connected to both sides of the upper clamping plate, the upper slides are movably connected to the upper slide groove, and an upper clamping pad is fixedly connected to the bottom of the upper clamping plate.

[0009] Preferably, a sliding frame is fixedly connected to both sides of the lower clamping plate, the sliding frame is movably connected to the sliding groove, and a lower clamping pad is fixedly connected to the top of the lower clamping plate.

[0010] Preferably, an upper protective pad is fixedly connected to the bottom of the upper clamp, and both the upper and lower protective pads are made of rubber material.

[0011] This utility model provides a workpiece clamp for processing in a cutting device, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] This type of workpiece fixture for cutting equipment comprises a lower clamping seat, a lower clamping plate, an upper clamping seat, and an upper clamping plate. When using the fixture, the operator places the workpiece between the upper and lower clamping plates and then starts the adjusting motor. The adjusting motor drives the adjusting screw to rotate, and the adjusting seat slides up and down via the sliding frame due to the rotation direction of the adjusting screw. When the adjusting seat moves the upper clamping seat downwards, the upper clamping plate clamps the workpiece. During workpiece clamping, if the workpiece has an irregular shape, the operator can push the upper and lower clamping plates forward. The upper and lower sliding frames on the upper and lower clamping plates move through the upper and lower sliding grooves, respectively, causing the upper and lower clamping plates to move out of the upper and lower mounting slots. The operator can then install a clamping plate of the appropriate shape for replacement, following the reverse order. This allows for easy clamping plate replacement, enabling the use of adaptable plates according to workpiece clamping requirements, ensuring stable and secure clamping, and preventing workpiece movement during processing.

[0020] In this embodiment, a mounting plate 1 is welded to the bottom of the lower clamp 3. Mounting holes 2 are opened at the four corners of the top of the mounting plate 1. The mounting plate 1 is installed by inserting bolts into the mounting holes 2 and then tightening the bolts. At this time, the bolts will fix the mounting plate 1 in the installation position.

[0021] In this embodiment, an adjusting motor 13 is fixedly connected inside the lower clamp 3. The driving end of the adjusting motor 13 is fixed with an adjusting screw 14 through a coupling. The adjusting screw 14 is threadedly connected to the adjusting seat 5. By starting the adjusting motor 13, the adjusting motor 13 drives the adjusting screw 14 to rotate, and the adjusting seat 5 will slide up and down through the sliding frame 4 due to the rotation direction of the adjusting screw 14.

[0022] In this embodiment, upper slides 801 are fixedly connected to both sides of the upper clamping plate 8. The upper slides 801 are movably connected to the upper slide groove 602. An upper clamping pad 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the upper clamping plate 8. When clamping the workpiece, the upper clamping pad 9 can protect the workpiece and prevent clamping marks from appearing on the workpiece.

[0023] In this embodiment, a lower slide frame 1101 is fixedly connected to both sides of the lower clamping plate 11. The lower slide frame 1101 is movably connected to the lower slide groove 16. A lower clamping pad 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the lower clamping plate 11. When clamping the workpiece, the lower clamping pad 12 can protect the workpiece and prevent clamping marks from appearing on the workpiece.

[0024] In this embodiment, an upper protective pad 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the upper clamp 6. Both the upper protective pad 7 and the lower protective pad 10 are made of rubber material. The upper protective pad 7 and the lower protective pad 10 made of rubber material can better protect the workpiece and prevent damage to the workpiece.

[0025] Working Principle: When using the workpiece clamping fixture in the cutting equipment, the operator places the workpiece between the upper clamping plate 8 and the lower clamping plate 11, and then starts the adjusting motor 13. The adjusting motor 13 drives the adjusting screw 14 to rotate, and the adjusting seat 5 slides up and down through the sliding frame 4 because of the rotation direction of the adjusting screw 14. When the adjusting seat 5 drives the upper clamping seat 6 to move downward, the upper clamping plate 8 clamps the workpiece. During the clamping process, when the workpiece has an irregular shape and needs to be replaced, the operator pulls the locking rod 18 to one side. The locking rod 18 drives the return spring 19 to retract, and at the same time, the rod 18 moves out of the locking port 802. Then the operator can... Push the upper clamping plate 8 and the lower clamping plate 11 forward. The upper slide 801 and the lower slide 1101 on the upper clamping plate 8 and the lower clamping plate 11 move through the upper slide groove 602 and the lower slide groove 16, so that the upper clamping plate 8 and the lower clamping plate 11 move out of the upper mounting groove 601 and the lower mounting groove 15 respectively. Then, the staff installs the clamping plate with the appropriate shape for replacement. The replacement can be done by installing in the reverse order. After the replacement is completed, release the locking rod 18. The return spring 19 pushes the locking rod 18 to insert into the locking hole 802 of the upper clamping plate 8 and the lower clamping plate 11 and plays a limiting and fixing role. This completes the use of this utility model. This utility model has a simple structure and is safe and convenient to use.
