Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a drilling machine, and more particularly to a drilling machine that is easy to position. Background Technology

[0002] In modern industrial manufacturing, drilling machines are indispensable processing tools, widely used in hole machining processes for various materials. Traditional drilling machines mainly consist of three core components: a base, a drill bit assembly, and a worktable. Their working process involves the base driving the drill bit assembly to reciprocate up and down, using the drill bit assembly to perform drilling operations on the workpiece fixed on the worktable.

[0003] However, in actual production processes, especially when drilling different parts of the same workpiece sequentially, the traditional drilling machine operation method has significant shortcomings. Typically, operators must first securely fix the workpiece to the worktable, complete the drilling at one point, then remove the workpiece from the worktable, readjust its position, and then fix it again to continue to the next drilling point. This repeated process of disassembling, adjusting, and re-fixing the workpiece not only significantly increases the operator's workload but can also lead to positional deviations in the workpiece during multiple clamping operations, affecting machining accuracy. Furthermore, frequent clamping operations significantly reduce the overall machining efficiency of the workpiece, becoming a major bottleneck restricting further improvements in production efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, developing a drilling machine that can optimize this operation process and improve workpiece processing efficiency has become an urgent technical challenge. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0024] 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.

[0025] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a drilling machine that is easy to position, including a support column 1. From top to bottom, the support column 1 is connected to a spindle box 2, a worktable 3, and a base 4. Pipe clamps are installed on the support column 1, including a left ring clamp 5 and a right ring clamp 6 arranged opposite each other. The left ring clamp 5 and the right ring clamp 6 are semi-circular ring structures, and their inner ring size is adapted to the support column 1. The left ring clamp 5 and the right ring clamp 6 are connected by a screw 7. Threaded holes 61 adapted to the screw 7 are respectively opened on the two end faces perpendicular to the right ring clamp 6, and stepped sliding holes 51 adapted to the screw 7 are respectively opened on the two end faces perpendicular to the left ring clamp 5. An arc-shaped notch 62 is formed on the outer wall of the right ring clamp 6. One of the screws 7 extends through the threaded hole 61 to the arc-shaped notch 62, and its front end is connected to... There is a vertical pin 8. Specifically, the side wall of the vertical pin 8 has a screw hole that matches the screw 7, and the two are connected by threads. A fastening handle 9 is hinged on the vertical pin 8. A circular hole 53 is opened on the outer side wall of the left ring clamp 5 in the direction parallel to its diameter, and a connecting rod 10 is inserted into the circular hole 53. The connecting rod 10 is a cylindrical rod. An elongated hole 52 is opened on the inner side wall of the left ring clamp 5, and a matching pad 11 is inserted into the elongated hole 52. One side of the pad 11 is roughly the same as the inner circle curvature of the left ring clamp 5, and the other side forms a groove that matches the connecting rod 10. The groove has strip-shaped anti-slip ridges. The end of the connecting rod 10 away from the left ring clamp 5 is connected to a vise 12. The vise 12 is placed on the upper end of the worktable 3 for clamping the workpiece.

[0026] When using this drilling machine, the operator rotates the fastening handle 9, causing the screw 7 to move relative to the left ring clamp 5 and the right ring clamp 6 under the action of the threaded hole 61 and the stepped sliding hole 51. This allows for quick clamping and loosening of the pipe clamps, and thus rapid adjustment of the vise 12, improving the convenience and efficiency of workpiece drilling position adjustment. Simultaneously with the clamping of the left ring clamp 5 and the right ring clamp 6, the pad 11 engages with the inner wall of the round hole 53 to lock the connecting rod 10.

[0027] Further, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 An extension rod 13 is hinged to the end of the fastening handle 9 away from the vertical pin 8. The extension rod 13 makes it more convenient for the operator to turn the fastening handle 9. In actual operation, when drilling, the operator stands in front of the drilling machine. By using the extended extension rod 13, the operator can operate the fastening handle 9 without adjusting the standing position, thereby further improving the convenience of operation.

[0028] refer to Figure 1In a preferred embodiment, an infrared positioner 14 is installed at the bottom of the spindle box 2. This positioner includes a clamp 141 mounted on the support column 1, a fixing frame 142 fixed to one side of the clamp 141, a clamping member 143 mounted on the fixing frame 142 via a pin, and an infrared transmitter 144 mounted on the clamping member 143. This infrared positioner 14 provides high-precision positioning assistance for drilling operations. The operator can quickly determine the relative drilling position of the drill bit on the workpiece using the markings emitted by the infrared transmitter 144. This allows for intuitive and accurate determination of the drilling position when adjusting the vise 12, reducing errors.

[0029] like Figure 5 As shown, the vise 12 specifically includes a base plate 121 and a threaded adjusting rod 122. The connecting rod 10 is connected to the base plate 121 by bolts 15. The base plate 121 is placed on the upper surface of the workbench 3. The base plate 121 is provided with a front fixed baffle 123, a rear fixed baffle 124 and a movable vise body 125. A through hole is horizontally opened on the rear fixed baffle 124. A nut 126 adapted to the threaded adjusting rod 122 is installed in the through hole. One end of the threaded adjusting rod 122 passes through the nut 126 and is rotatably connected to the movable vise body 125. The other end of the threaded adjusting rod 122 is provided with a handle 127. In addition, the handle 127 is provided with anti-slip texture to improve the grip stability of the operator when adjusting the threaded adjusting rod 122 and prevent the hand from slipping. The operator can quickly clamp and release the workpiece through the handle 127, and adjust the position of the vise 12 through the handle 127.

[0030] By combining the handle 127 and the extension rod 13, the operator can quickly switch the position of the drilling point by holding the handle 127 in the left hand and the extension rod 13 in the right hand.

[0031] In actual operation, the operator first places the workpiece between the front fixed baffle 123 and the movable jaw 125 of the vise 12. Then, by rotating the handle 127, the movable jaw 125 is moved closer to the front fixed baffle 123 via the threaded adjusting rod 122, clamping the workpiece. Next, based on the drilling position determined by the infrared locator 14, the operator rotates the fastening handle 9 to adjust the position of the pipe clamp, moving the vise 12 to the appropriate position. The locking linkage 10 is secured by the clamping action of the pad 11 against the inner wall of the circular hole 53, ensuring the position of the vise 12 and the workpiece is fixed. Then, the spindle box 2 is started for drilling. After drilling is completed, the fastening handle 9 is released, the pipe clamp position is quickly adjusted, and preparation is made for machining the next hole.

[0032] This drilling machine, through the combination of pipe clamps and vise 12, and with the assistance of an infrared positioner, achieves rapid positioning and clamping of workpieces, significantly improving the efficiency and accuracy of drilling, reducing the workload of operators, and is suitable for drilling needs of various workpieces.

[0033] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention, and while the descriptions are specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications, improvements, and substitutions without departing from the inventive concept, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent should be determined by the appended claims.
