Background Technology

[0002] In machining and assembly processes, racks, as important transmission components, often need to be clamped and fixed to ensure machining accuracy or assembly quality.

[0003] Existing rack clamping mechanisms typically employ single-sided or asynchronous clamping methods, which present the following problems: uneven clamping force, which can easily lead to rack deformation or clamping failure; inaccurate rack alignment during clamping, affecting subsequent processing or assembly accuracy; and complex operation, making it impossible to achieve fast and stable clamping. Therefore, we need to upgrade and modify existing technologies to overcome these problems and shortcomings. Utility Model Content

[0026] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown in Figure 4, the synchronous rack clamping mechanism provided in this embodiment includes a clamping base 1, a clamping component 2, a driving component 3, and a centering component 4. The clamping component 2 is disposed on the clamping base 1, the driving component 3 is disposed at the bottom of the clamping base 1, and the centering component 4 is disposed on the clamping base 1.

[0028] In this embodiment, the clamping assembly 2 includes a left clamping plate 21 and a right clamping plate 22. The left clamping plate 21 and the right clamping plate 22 are slidably mounted on the surface of the clamping base 1 and symmetrically connected to the driving assembly 3. Adjusting bolts 23 are screwed onto the left clamping plate 21 and the right clamping plate 22 respectively. Inner clamping plates 25 are rotatably connected to the inner side of the adjusting bolts 23. Springs 24 are connected between the two sets of inner clamping plates 25 and the left clamping plate 21 and the right clamping plate 22 respectively. A positioning groove 12 is opened on the surface of the clamping base 1, and a scale line 13 is provided at the upper end of the positioning groove 12. The left clamping plate 21 and the right clamping plate 22 are slidably mounted on the surface of the clamping base 1 and symmetrically connected to the driving assembly 3. The lower end of the clamping plate 22 is provided with positioning sliders 26, and the positioning sliders 26 slide in the positioning groove 12. The left clamping plate 21 and the right clamping plate 22 are controlled to move in opposite directions by the drive component 3 to clamp the rack synchronously. The position of the inner clamping plate 25 is adjusted by the adjusting bolt 23 and the spring 24 to change the clamping force and ensure that the clamping force on both sides is consistent, thereby realizing the clamping operation of the rack. The clamping force can be flexibly adjusted. The clamping force can be precisely set according to the hardness of the rack material and the special requirements of the processing technology to avoid damage to the rack surface due to excessive clamping force.

[0029] In this embodiment, the drive assembly 3 includes two sets of synchronous pulleys 31 rotatably mounted on the bottom of the clamping base 1. A synchronous belt 32 is connected to the synchronous pulleys 31. A motor 35 is connected to the lower end of one synchronous pulley 31. A left connecting rod 33 and a right connecting rod 34 are respectively provided on both sides of the synchronous belt 32. The upper ends of the left connecting rod 33 and the right connecting rod 34 are fixedly connected to the left clamping plate 21 and the right clamping plate 22, respectively. Two sets of guide grooves 11 are provided on the surface of the clamping base 1. The left connecting rod 33 and the right connecting rod 34 slide in the guide grooves 1 on both sides. Inside the clamping base 1, the lower end of the synchronous pulley 31 is rotatably connected to the mounting bracket 36. The two sets of mounting brackets 36 are respectively fixed on the lower surface of the clamping base 1. The synchronous pulley 31 is rotated by the motor 35. The synchronous pulley 31 drives the synchronous belt 32 to rotate. The synchronous belt 32 drives the left connecting rod 33 and the right connecting rod 34 to move in opposite directions, which in turn drives the left clamping plate 21 and the right clamping plate 22 to move in opposite directions. This enables synchronous motion control of the clamping plates, achieves synchronous clamping on both sides, ensures consistent clamping force, and avoids rack deformation or clamping failure.

[0030] In this embodiment, the centering component 4 includes two sets of centering sensors 41 and an indicator light 42 disposed on one side of the centering sensor 41. The centering sensors 41 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the clamping base 1, and the indicator light 42 is fixed on one side of the clamping base 1. The centering sensors 41 facilitate the centering confirmation of the rack. When the centering is accurate, the indicator light 42 sends a signal, which can realize the precise alignment and installation of the rack and improve the processing or assembly accuracy.

[0031] The working principle and process of this utility model are as follows: First, the inner clamping plate 25 is moved by adjusting the bolt 23. The clamping force is precisely set according to the hardness of the rack material and the special requirements of the processing technology. Then, the rack is placed on the clamping base 1 and positioned in the center by the positioning groove 12 and the scale line 13. The centering sensor 41 performs centering detection. When the centering is accurate, the indicator light 42 sends a signal. At this time, the motor 35 can be driven to work. The motor 35 controls the synchronous pulley 31 to rotate. The synchronous pulley 31 drives the synchronous belt 32 to rotate. The synchronous belt 32 drives the left connecting rod 33 and the right connecting rod 34 to move in opposite directions. The two sets of connecting rods drive the left clamping plate 21 and the right clamping plate 22 to move in opposite directions and clamp the rack at both ends respectively.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.
