Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of printing machine components, specifically relating to a pneumatic clamping device for printing machines. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of printing machinery, the clamping device of roll material or printing plate directly affects the printing accuracy and operational stability. Traditional printing press clamping devices mostly adopt mechanical screw or hydraulic clamping structures, which have the following defects: (1) The adjustment process depends on manual turning, which has low operating efficiency and makes it difficult to achieve dynamic pressure compensation; (2) The clamping force is unevenly distributed, which can easily lead to deformation of thin materials or slippage of thick materials; Existing technologies such as CN202911290U, although pneumatically driven, have a single-point force application defect in their push rod mechanism, which leads to the clamping surface being skewed. Long-term unilateral pressure braking can easily lead to shaft deformation. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pneumatic clamping device for printing presses to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a pneumatic clamping device for a printing press, comprising a clamping base, a cylinder mounted on the clamping base, one end of the cylinder connected to a push plate, two rotating arms mounted on the clamping base, the push plate used to push the rotating arms to rotate, the rotating arms being connected by a spring, a bent section at one end of each rotating arm, a push-pull rod at one end of the bent section, a cover plate on the clamping base, a branch plate on one side of the cover plate, a first sliding groove on the branch plate, a guide rod within the first sliding groove, a back plate connecting plate at one end of the guide rod, the back plate connecting plate connecting to a back plate, a brake plate on the back plate, a second sliding groove on the back plate connecting plate, and the push-pull rod within the second sliding groove.
[0005] Preferably, a mounting plate is provided on the side of the clamp base.
[0006] Preferably, a shaft is provided on the fixture base, and the rotating arm is sleeved on the shaft.
[0007] Preferably, the shaft is a hollow structure, and a screw is threaded into the shaft.
[0008] Preferably, the bent section is bent toward the fixture base.
[0009] Preferably, a baffle is provided at one end of the guide rod.
[0010] Preferably, the baffle is fixed to one end of the guide rod by screws.
[0011] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows: 1. By using a cylinder to drive an inverted triangular push plate, the vertical thrust is converted into the synchronous rotational motion of the symmetrical rotating arm. Combined with an arc-shaped back plate and a double sliding groove guide mechanism, a progressively enveloping clamping surface is automatically formed during the closing process, so that the clamping force is evenly distributed along the circumference of the material and the clamping sides are symmetrical, thus avoiding bending of the clamped shaft.
[0012] 2. The design of the swing arm bending section provides installation space for the back panel, making the overall structure more compact. Attached Figure Description
