Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water outlet technology, and in particular to an automated clamping fixture for water outlets. Background Technology

[0002] In modern manufacturing, plastic products, castings, or injection molded parts often have excess sprues after molding. This part of the material needs to be removed through subsequent processes to ensure the appearance quality and dimensional accuracy of the product. In the production of car keys, operators need to place the key components into a fixed fixture for positioning, and then use tools or semi-automatic devices to complete the cutting process.

[0003] Existing clamping fixtures still use simple pressure plates or manual screw clamps, which cannot achieve fast and stable automatic clamping of key components. Unstable clamping may cause the key blank to shift, and splashing may occur at the cut point at the moment of cutting, which not only has an adverse effect on equipment operation, but also affects operational safety. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automated clamping fixture for removing sprues, which can stably clamp the key assembly from multiple angles, prevent the key blank from shifting during processing, and effectively prevent splashing from the sprue.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: an automated clamping fixture for removing sprue nozzles, comprising a fixture plate, a cutting seat on the fixture plate, a boss on the cutting seat, a cutting groove on the boss for placing a key assembly, the key assembly comprising a key blank and a sprue nozzle connected to the key blank, a fixing component for pressing and fixing the key assembly on the side of the cutting seat; a chip suction groove on the cutting seat, a chip suction channel inside the cutting seat, the chip suction channel communicating with the chip suction groove, the end of the chip suction channel away from the chip suction groove being connected to an external dust collection device, a mesh cover layer on the chip suction groove, the sprue nozzle abutting against the mesh cover layer. By adopting the above technical solution, reliable clamping of the key blank is achieved, chip removal can be completed simultaneously during the cutting process, keeping the processing area clean, and the suction force fixes the sprue nozzle through the mesh cover, ensuring that the key assembly remains stable when cutting the sprue nozzle and avoiding splashing of the sprue nozzle at the moment of cutting.

[0006] A further feature of this invention is that the mesh layer has multiple through holes. By adopting the above technical solution, the debris generated during the cutting process can pass smoothly through the through holes and be sucked away, avoiding accumulation and interference with the movement of the cutting tool.

[0007] A further feature of this invention is that the fixing assembly includes a clamping cylinder disposed on the side of the cutting seat and a clamping block disposed on the actuating end of the clamping cylinder. A clamping groove is formed on the boss for the clamping block to be inserted. The clamping block passes through the clamping groove and abuts against the key blank, so that the key blank is fixed on the boss. By adopting the above technical solution, the key blank can be clamped laterally, achieving multi-directional clamping, improving clamping strength, and thus ensuring stability during cutting.

[0008] A further feature of this invention is that the fixing assembly also includes a rotary lifting cylinder disposed on the side of the boss. The actuating end of the rotary lifting cylinder is provided with a clamping claw, which clamps the key blank to prevent the key blank from detaching from the boss. By adopting the above technical solution, the rotary lifting cylinder controls the angle adjustment and lifting of the clamping claw to control the clamping and releasing of the key assembly.

[0009] A further feature of this invention is that the cutting groove is provided with a slot, and the bottom of the key blank is provided with a first buckle and a second buckle. The first buckle engages with the slot, and the second buckle engages with the abutment groove. By adopting the above technical solution, the key blank is firmly positioned on the cutting seat and is not prone to displacement.

[0010] A further feature of this invention is that the bottom of the key blank is provided with a first connecting pin and a second connecting pin, and the cutting groove is provided with a corresponding first limiting groove and a second limiting groove. The first connecting pin is inserted into the first limiting groove, and the second connecting pin is inserted into the second limiting groove. By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting effect of the key blank on the cutting seat is further enhanced, preventing the key assembly from being displaced due to high-frequency vibration, improving cutting accuracy, and ensuring product quality.

[0011] A further feature of this invention is that both the clamping block and the clamping claw are made of rubber. By adopting the above technical solution, a stable clamping force can be provided during the clamping process, and the pressure marks or scratches on the key surface can be effectively prevented.

[0012] A further feature of this invention is that: a groove is provided on the boss, a limiting block is slidably arranged in the groove, the limiting block abuts against the key blank, and a locking nut is threadedly connected to the limiting block. By adopting the above technical solution, if the size of the key blank is smaller than the cutting groove, the limiting block can be adjusted to help press the key blank, which can adapt to key blanks of different specifications.

[0013] A further feature of this invention is that a guide protrusion is provided on the side wall of the slide groove, and a guide slot is provided on the limiting block. The guide protrusion and the guide slot are inserted and engaged. By adopting the above technical solution, it is ensured that the position of the limiting block is accurate and does not get stuck during the adjustment process, and it will not fall off due to external force.

[0014] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. This utility model effectively prevents the key blank from shifting during processing by using multiple clamping structures, ensuring accurate sprue removal and a smooth cutting surface.

[0016] 2. The cutting seat of this utility model is equipped with a chip suction groove and a chip suction channel, and is connected to an external dust collection device. It can simultaneously remove dust during processing and can also use negative pressure to adsorb water inlet, effectively preventing the cutting edge from splashing.

[0017] 3. The automated clamping structure of this utility model greatly reduces manual intervention, avoids uneven clamping due to operator error, and improves product consistency.

[0018] 4. The limiting block can be flexibly adjusted according to the shape of the key blank, giving this tooling good compatibility and versatility, and making it suitable for different types of key blanks. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, this utility model provides an automated clamping fixture for removing sprue nozzles, including a fixture plate 1. A cutting seat 2 for supporting a key assembly 3 is mounted on the fixture plate 1. The cutting seat 2 has a boss 21 with a cutting groove 211 for placing the key assembly 3. The key assembly 3 includes a key blank 31 and a sprue nozzle 32 connected to the key blank 31. The sprue nozzle 32 is excess material generated during injection molding and needs to be removed in subsequent processing. A fixing component 4 is provided on one side of the cutting seat 2 to facilitate the removal of material generated during the cutting process. The cutting base 2 is equipped with a chip suction groove 22 and a chip suction channel 23 inside the cutting base 2. One end of the chip suction channel 23 is connected to the chip suction groove 22, and the other end can be connected to an external dust collection device. A mesh cover layer 24 is provided above the chip suction groove 22 to prevent large pieces of material or debris from entering the chip suction channel 23 and causing blockage. At the same time, the negative pressure generated during chip suction can be used to firmly adhere the sprue part 32 to the mesh cover layer 24 to achieve the function of auxiliary pressing. The mesh cover layer 24 is provided with multiple through holes 241 to enhance chip penetration efficiency and maintain good airflow.

[0027] The fixing component 4 includes a clamping cylinder 5 disposed on the side of the cutting seat. The output end of the clamping cylinder 5 is connected to a clamping block 51. A clamping groove 25 is formed on the boss 21 for the clamping block 51 to be inserted. The clamping block 51 can pass through the clamping groove 25 and abut against the key blank 31. The other end of the boss 21 stops the key blank 31, so that it is clamped in the horizontal direction.

[0028] The fixing component 4 also includes a rotary lifting cylinder 41 disposed on the side of the boss 21. The actuating end of the rotary lifting cylinder 41 is provided with a clamping claw 42, which clamps the key blank 31 to restrict the key blank 31 from disengaging from the boss 21 and prevent it from shifting during subsequent cutting.

[0029] Both the clamping block 51 and the clamping claw 42 are made of rubber. By utilizing the flexibility and cushioning properties of rubber, they can provide sufficient clamping force and effectively protect the surface of the workpiece, thus ensuring the quality of the finished product.

[0030] The cutting base 2 is provided with a slot 26, and the bottom of the key blank 31 is provided with a first buckle 311 and a second buckle 312. The first buckle 311 engages with the slot 26, and the second buckle 312 engages with one end of the pressing groove 25. The bottom of the key blank 31 is also provided with a first connecting pin 313 and a second connecting pin 314. The first connecting pin 313 is cross-shaped, and the second connecting pin 314 is L-shaped. The cutting base 2 is provided with a first limiting groove 27 and a second limiting groove 28 of corresponding shapes. The first connecting pin 313 engages with the first limiting groove 27, and the second connecting pin 314 engages with the second limiting groove 28, thereby ensuring the stable positioning of the key blank 31 and avoiding deviation or shaking during the cutting process.

[0031] The boss 21 is provided with a sliding groove 29, and a limiting block 6 is slidably installed in the sliding groove 29. The limiting block 6 abuts against one side of the key blank 31. If the size of the key blank 31 is smaller than the cutting groove 211, the limiting block 6 can be adjusted to help press the key blank 31. A locking nut 61 is threaded on the limiting block 6. By adjusting the locking nut 61, it moves downward. When it abuts against the cutting seat 2, the limiting block 6 can be locked, thereby adapting to key blanks 31 of different sizes. In order to prevent the limiting block 6 from shifting during the sliding process, a guide protrusion 291 is provided on the side wall of the sliding groove 29, and a guide slot 62 is provided on the limiting block 6. The guide protrusion 291 and the guide slot 62 are inserted and matched to ensure that the limiting structure runs smoothly.

[0032] The basic working principle of this embodiment is as follows: The operator or robot arm places the key blank 31 with a water inlet into the cutting groove 211 on the cutting seat 2. The first buckle 311 at the bottom of the key blank 31 engages with the first slot 26 of the cutting seat 2. The first connecting pin 313 and the second connecting pin 314 are inserted into the corresponding first limiting groove 27 and the second limiting groove 28. At the same time, the second buckle 312 on the key blank 31 is inserted into the pressing groove 25 of the boss 21. After the pressing cylinder 5 is started, the pressing block 51 at its output end passes through the pressing groove 25 and abuts against the side of the key blank 31, forming a lateral clamping. The control system drives the rotating lifting cylinder 41 to make the clamping claw 42 clamp against the key blank 31. The key blank 31 is then positioned, and the rotating lifting cylinder 41 presses down, causing the clamping claw 42 to press down on the upper surface of the key blank 31, achieving vertical clamping and fixing, ensuring that the entire key blank 31 is firmly fixed. At the same time, the chip suction channel 23, in conjunction with the external dust suction device, is activated to firmly adhere the sprue part 32 to the mesh cover layer 24. After clamping, the external cutting mechanism can cut off the sprue part 32 connected to the key blank 31. Because the sprue part 32 is pressed against the mesh cover layer 24, it can maintain an appropriate height and is supported, making the cutting stable. During the cutting process, since plastic chips are easy to fly, the external dust suction device sucks the chips into the chip suction channel 23, keeping the processing area clean.

[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes or modifications made to the structure, features and principles described in the claims of the present utility model patent application are included in the scope of the present utility model patent application.
