Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical clamping technology, specifically to a floating pressure head limiting structure. Background Technology

[0002] Existing lever clamps such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a base 1 and a lever 2 that is hinged to the base 1 in the middle. A fixed pressure head 3 is provided at the front end of the lever 2. Since the fixed pressure head 3 cannot always be parallel to the surface of the workpiece 4, when pressing the workpiece 4, part of the fixed pressure head 3 will press the workpiece 4, thereby creating an indentation on the surface of the workpiece 4.

[0003] Therefore, those skilled in the art are dedicated to developing a floating pressure head limiting structure that avoids indentation when pressing workpieces. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to develop a floating pressure head limiting structure that avoids indentation when pressing workpieces.

[0005] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following solution:

[0006] A floating pressure head limiting structure includes a lever with a hinge hole in the middle. The upper end of a downwardly extending pressure arm ball head is installed at the front end of the lever. The lower end of the pressure arm ball head is inserted into a limiting plate. The bottom of the pressure arm ball head is provided with a spherical surface. A pressure plate is connected to the bottom of the limiting plate. In a natural state, the spherical surface and the top of the pressure plate do not contact each other. A longitudinal through-hole extending forward and backward is also provided on the lever in front of the pressure arm ball head. The lower end of a limiting cylindrical pin is inserted into the pressure plate. The upper end of the limiting cylindrical pin extends into the strip hole. The upper end of the limiting cylindrical pin can only swing back and forth and cannot move left and right.

[0007] Furthermore, the pressure plate is triangular in shape, and three buffer pads arranged in a triangular pattern are connected to the bottom of the pressure plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the limiting plate is provided with a tapered enlarged hole to accommodate the spherical surface.

[0009] Furthermore, the pressure plate is provided with a threaded hole, and the limiting plate is provided with a bolt that is threadedly connected to the threaded hole.

[0010] The advantages of this utility model are:

[0011] 1. The pressure arm ball head is suspended on the lever by the limiting plate. The pressure arm ball head can be quickly replaced by removing the limiting plate.

[0012] 2. The clamping force is always perpendicular to the working surface of the pressure plate, which can reduce indentations on the clamping surface;

[0013] 3. By adjusting the length, gap and position of the limiting cylindrical pin and the strip hole, the limiting angle of each side can be designed separately, which can adapt to the working environment of the lever clamp and can be used for non-flat surfaces and irregular surfaces.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, a floating pressure head limiting structure includes a lever 2 with a hinge hole 10 in the middle. The upper end of a downwardly extending pressure arm ball head 5 is mounted on the front end of the lever 2. The lower end of the pressure arm ball head 5 is inserted into a limiting plate 6. A spherical surface 7 is provided at the bottom of the pressure arm ball head 5. A pressure plate 8 is connected to the bottom of the limiting plate 6. In a natural state, the spherical surface 7 and the top of the pressure plate 8 do not contact each other. A longitudinally penetrating and extending strip-shaped hole 9 is also provided on the lever 2 in front of the pressure arm ball head 5. The lower end of a limiting cylindrical pin 11 is inserted into the pressure plate 8. The upper end of the limiting cylindrical pin 11 extends into the strip-shaped hole 9. The upper end of the limiting cylindrical pin 11 can only swing back and forth and cannot move left and right. The pressure plate 8 is triangular in shape, and three buffer pads 12 arranged in a triangle are connected to the bottom of the pressure plate 8 to expand the pressing range. The limiting plate 6 is provided with a conical enlarged hole 13 to accommodate the spherical surface 7. The pressure plate 8 is provided with a threaded hole 14, and the limiting plate 6 is provided with a bolt 15 that is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 14. The structure is simple and easy to disassemble and assemble.

[0028] The working principle of this solution is as follows:

[0029] In its natural state, the spherical part 7 does not contact the pressure plate 8 and is suspended on the lever 2 under the influence of gravity. It is guided by the limiting plate 6 and restricts the displacement of the pressure plate 8. The cooperation between the limiting cylindrical pin 11 and the strip hole 9 causes the upper end of the limiting cylindrical pin 11 to swing back and forth but not to move left and right, thereby restricting the rotation and tilting of the pressure plate 8.

[0030] When the pressure plate 8 presses down on the workpiece 4, the spherical part 7 is in contact with the top surface of the pressure plate 8. The clamping force is transmitted along the ball head 5 of the pressure arm and the spherical part 7 to a plane parallel to the surface of the pressure plate 8. The clamping force is always perpendicular to the surface of the pressure plate 8, ensuring that the workpiece is not pressed off at an angle and avoiding indentations on the surface of the workpiece.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications made to the present utility model by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present utility model shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
