Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clamping technology, and in particular to a quick clamping clamp with a self-locking function. Background Technology
[0002] When using self-locking quick-clamping fixtures, a type of quick-clamping fixture with a self-locking function is often used. This device is capable of quickly loading and unloading workpieces by automatically locking itself in a clamped state. Through mechanical structure design, it achieves rapid clamping and automatically maintains the clamping force without continuous manual operation or additional auxiliary fixation. On the one hand, it greatly improves clamping efficiency, saves operation time, and speeds up the production pace. On the other hand, it enhances the stability and reliability of clamping, effectively preventing workpiece loosening due to accidental vibration, external forces, and other factors, ensuring machining accuracy, and reducing scrap rate. It is especially suitable for machining scenarios with frequent workpiece changes and high requirements for production efficiency and quality.
[0003] A quick-clamping fixture with a self-locking function first places the workpiece in the fixture, then operates the fixture's drive mechanism to move the jaws quickly and clamp the workpiece. During the clamping process, the self-locking mechanism is triggered, achieving automatic locking through a special mechanical structure or device. This ensures that the fixture can firmly fix the workpiece during subsequent processing, preventing the workpiece from loosening due to external forces or vibrations. When it is necessary to release the workpiece, the corresponding unlocking device is operated to release the self-locking state, and then the jaws are released through the drive mechanism, thus completing one clamping process.
[0004] In existing technologies, some quick-clamping fixtures with self-locking functions rely primarily on external force to maintain their locking state. For example, lever-type and eccentric wheel-type fixtures, after initial locking through manual operation, lack an effective mechanical self-locking mechanism. When subjected to workpiece processing vibration, external impact, or wear caused by long-term use, they are prone to loosening, which not only affects the workpiece positioning accuracy but may even lead to the safety hazard of workpiece falling off. While pneumatic and hydraulic driven fixtures can maintain locking through continuous fluid pressure, they require a stable air or hydraulic source. Once the power is interrupted, such as by pipeline leakage or equipment failure, the locking force will disappear instantly, making passive self-locking impossible. Therefore, a quick-clamping fixture with self-locking function is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0032] 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.
[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The present invention provides an embodiment of a quick clamping fixture with a self-locking function, comprising a base 1, which is used for support and fixation to ensure the overall stability of the fixture. A clamping mechanism is provided on the top of the base 1, and a self-locking mechanism is provided on the top of the base 1.
[0034] The clamping mechanism includes a fixed block a2, which is a sliding support structure for the push rod 3 and also a connecting base for the linkage swing arm 5. The push rod 3 is slidably connected inside the fixed block a2. When an external force is applied to the push rod 3, it can slide in the sliding channel of the fixed block a2 and the fixed block b4. The sliding of the push rod 3 drives the fastening block 19 to move together, thereby realizing the clamping or releasing action of the workpiece. The top left side of the push rod 3 is fixedly connected to the fixed block b4, which is a sliding support structure for the push rod 3, thereby realizing the clamping of the workpiece.
[0035] The left and right sides of the fixed block a2 are fixedly connected to the linkage swing arm 5, which transmits power and amplifies the force. When the operating handle 7 drives the hinge pin ring 6 to move through the adjustment component, the linkage swing arm 5 will swing accordingly, converting the small force of the operating handle 7 into a larger clamping force, thereby realizing the rapid clamping of the workpiece. The left and right sides of the inner wall of the linkage swing arm 5 are fixedly connected to the hinge pin ring 6. When the operating handle 7 moves up and down, the hinge pin ring 6 will move accordingly, and transmit the motion to the push rod 3 through the linkage swing arm 5, thereby realizing the action of the clamping mechanism.
[0036] The top of the hinge pin ring 6 is equipped with an adjustment component. When the operator manually moves the operating handle 7 up and down, the operating handle 7 will drive the hinge pin ring 6 to move, thereby controlling the clamping and releasing actions of the fixture through the linkage of the swing arm 5 and the push rod 3. The left and right sides of the outer wall of the hinge pin ring 6 are fixedly connected to the limit rods 8 to restrict the movement of the push rod 3, prevent the push rod 3 from being excessively displaced during the sliding process, and ensure that the fixture operates within the normal working range. The bottom of the fixed block a2 is fixedly connected to the top right side of the base 1, and the outside of the push rod 3 is slidably connected to the inside of the fixed block b4.
[0037] The self-locking mechanism includes a self-locking base 9 for realizing the self-locking function. Through the cooperation of the locking link 12 and the locking spring 13, the movement state of the clamping mechanism is locked to prevent accidental loosening. The internal space of the self-locking base 9 is provided with a slot 10, which is used to store the locking top block 14 in the unlocked state. The top of the self-locking base 9 is fixedly connected to a self-locking lever 11. When the operator moves the self-locking lever 11, the locking link 12 drives the locking top block 14 to move up and down, thereby realizing the locking and unlocking of the self-locking mechanism. The outer left side of the self-locking base 9 is fixedly connected to the outer right side of the push rod 3.
[0038] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The adjustment assembly includes an operating handle 7, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the top of the hinge pin ring 6. The left and right sides of the inner wall of the limiting rod 8 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the outer wall of the push rod 3. The self-locking lever 11 is internally fixedly connected to a locking link 12, which transmits the movement of the self-locking lever 11 to the locking top block 14. When the self-locking lever 11 is moved, the locking link 12 pushes the locking top block 14 into the positioning groove 16 to achieve self-locking. Conversely, when the self-locking lever 11 is reset, the locking top block 14 exits from the positioning groove 16 to release the self-locking.
[0039] A locking spring 13 is fitted on the outer bottom side of the locking link 12 to provide preload force, ensuring that the locking top block 14 always remains in contact with the positioning groove 16 to prevent accidental unlocking. The locking link 12 is externally slidably connected to the inside of the self-locking base 9. The bottom of the locking link 12 is fixedly connected to the locking top block 14. When the locking link 12 pushes the locking top block 14 into the positioning groove 16, the locking top block 14 locks the push rod 3, keeping the clamping mechanism locked. When the locking top block 14 exits from the positioning groove 16, the self-locking is released. The locking top block 14 is externally slidably connected to the inside of the self-locking base 9, and the locking spring 13 is externally fixedly connected to the inside of the self-locking base 9.
[0040] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3A support plate 15 is fixedly connected to the top right side of the base 1, which provides guidance and limiting function for the locking top block 14. It can be accurately locked into the positioning groove 16 to ensure the stability and reliability of the self-locking mechanism. The positioning groove 16 is opened in the internal space area of the support plate 15 to receive the locking top block 14. When the locking top block 14 slides into the positioning groove 16, the self-locking mechanism enters the locked state, and the push rod 3 of the clamping mechanism is fixed and cannot continue to move, thereby realizing the self-locking function.
[0041] The locking top block 14 is externally fixedly connected to the inside of the positioning groove 16. The outer left side of the push rod 3 is fixedly connected to the telescopic rod 17, which is used to provide additional clamping force during the clamping process to ensure the stability of the clamping mechanism. The telescopic rod 17 is sleeved with a spring a18. When the push rod 3 moves to the right, the telescopic rod 17 is compressed and the spring a18 stores elastic potential energy. When the push rod 3 retracts to the left, the spring a18 releases energy and pushes the telescopic rod 17 to reset, ensuring the stability of the clamping mechanism. The outer right side of the spring a18 is fixedly connected to the outer left side of the push rod 3.
[0042] A fastening block 19 is fixedly connected to the outer left side of the telescopic rod 17, which works in conjunction with the baffle 20. When the telescopic rod 17 moves to the left, the fastening block 19 will contact the baffle 20, thereby clamping the workpiece. A baffle 20 is fixedly connected to the top left side of the base 1, which serves as a fixed support surface and clamps the workpiece together with the fastening block 19. The outer left side of the fastening block 19 is slidably connected to the outer right side of the baffle 20.
[0043] Working principle: When the workpiece needs to be clamped, the operator manually pulls the operating handle 7 downwards. The operating handle 7 drives the hinge pin ring 6 to move. The movement of the hinge pin ring 6 causes the linkage swing arm 5 to swing accordingly. The swing of the linkage swing arm 5 causes the push rod 3 to slide within the sliding channel of the fixed block a and the fixed block b. The sliding of the push rod 3 simultaneously drives the limit rod 8 to move, and the sliding of the push rod 3 also drives the fastening block 19 and the telescopic rod 17 to move. At this time, the telescopic rod 17 is compressed, and the spring a sleeved on the outside of the telescopic rod 17 is also compressed. The fastening block 19 gradually moves closer to the baffle 20 until it cooperates with the baffle 20 to clamp the workpiece. When it is necessary to release the workpiece, the operator manually pulls the operating handle 7 upwards. The operating handle 7 drives the hinge pin ring 6 to move in the opposite direction, and the linkage swing arm 5 swings in the opposite direction, thereby driving the push rod 3 to slide in the opposite direction. The limit rod 8 also moves in the opposite direction with the push rod 3. At this time, the compressed spring a The energy is released, pushing the telescopic rod 17 to reset, and the fastening block 19 moves with the telescopic rod 17 in a direction away from the baffle 20, thereby releasing the workpiece.
[0044] In the initial state, the self-locking mechanism is in the unlocked state, and the locking top block 14 is stored in the slot 10 inside the self-locking base 9. When the operator moves the self-locking lever 11, the self-locking lever 11 drives the locking top block 14 to move downward through the locking link 12. The locking top block 14 slides into the positioning slot 16 inside the support plate 15. At this time, the locking spring 13 is compressed, providing a preload to ensure that the locking top block 14 remains in contact with the positioning slot 16, thereby locking the push rod 3 and putting the clamping mechanism into the locked state to prevent accidental loosening. When it is necessary to unlock, the operator resets the self-locking lever 11, and the elastic force of the locking spring 13 pushes the locking link 12 to move upward, causing the locking top block 14 to exit from the positioning slot 16 and return to the slot 10. The self-locking is released, and the push rod 3 returns to the movable state.
[0045] 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.
