Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clamping structures, and in particular to a brush blank clamping mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] A bristle implantation machine is a device used to implant fibers (such as hair, bristles, etc.) into a specific base material. During the production process, holes are drilled in the brush blank, and then bristles are implanted to produce the brush. Both during processing and transportation, clamps are needed to hold and fix the brush blank.
[0003] A search revealed that Chinese Patent CN214855048U discloses a multi-functional clamp for a hair-planting machine, comprising a base, a clamp shaft, a clamp bridge, a tail clamp, and a floating assembly. The clamp shaft is mounted on top of the base, the tail clamp is fixed to the base, and the floating assembly is located between the tail clamp and the clamp bridge. The floating assembly includes a floating finger seat, a first floating finger, a second floating finger, a third floating finger, a first elastic structure, and two floating finger fixing plates. The floating finger seat has three partitions, dividing it into three areas. A first elastic structure is installed in each of the three areas, and the first, second, and third floating fingers are respectively mounted above the first elastic structures in each of the three areas. The floating finger springs act on the first, second, and third floating fingers, ensuring they are in close contact with the back of the brush handle, thus providing a clamping effect.
[0004] While the above solution can achieve clamping and fixation, it suffers from complex structure, resulting in numerous parts and high cost, and requires further improvement. Utility Model Content
[0005] This application provides a brush blank clamping mechanism, which has the advantages of simple structure, few parts and stable clamping.
[0006] This application provides a brush blank clamping mechanism, which adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A brush blank clamping mechanism includes a main body, a lifting plate disposed on the main body, a drive source disposed on the main body to drive the lifting plate to move up and down, clamping plates symmetrically disposed on both sides of the main body, the middle part of the clamping plate being rotatably connected to the main body, one end of the clamping plate being connected to the lifting plate via a connecting rod, one end of the connecting rod being hinged to the lifting plate, the other end of the connecting rod being hinged to the clamping plate, and the end of the clamping plate away from the connecting rod forming a clamping end.
[0008] Optionally, the main body has a mounting groove, the drive source is installed in the mounting groove, the drive source includes a cylinder, and the lifting plate is fixed on the piston rod of the cylinder.

[0017] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0018] 1. When the drive source drives the lifting plate to descend, the connecting rod drives the clamping plate to rotate around the central rotation point, and the two clamping ends move away from each other to achieve the release operation. Conversely, driving the lifting plate to rise will bring the two clamping ends closer together to achieve the clamping operation. The overall structure is simple, with few parts, resulting in low production costs, and the clamping has good stability.
[0019] 2. The hollowed-out groove design effectively saves material for the clamping plate and reduces the overall weight, making the clamping mechanism lighter overall;
[0020] 3. The swing arm design allows for connection and installation via perforations, which also enable the swing arm to rotate, thereby expanding the clamping mechanism's mobility in another rotational dimension and making it easier to grip brush blanks from different locations.
[0021] 4. The clamp and the clamping plate are detachably connected, and the appropriate clamp can be replaced in different situations to clamp different specifications and models of brush blanks, which effectively improves applicability and practicality. In addition, the clamping groove design of the clamping rod can further improve the clamping stability and reduce the possibility of brush blanks falling off accidentally. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-2 This application will be described in further detail.
[0027] A brush blank clamping mechanism, such as Figure 1 As shown, the device includes a main body 1, with a mounting groove 2 on the top of the main body 1. A drive source 3 is fixedly installed in the mounting groove 2. A lifting plate 4 is provided on the top of the main body 1. The lifting plate 4 is located on the drive source 3 and is driven by the drive source 3 to achieve vertical lifting. In addition, clamping plates 5 are provided on opposite sides of the main body 1. The clamping plates 5 are elongated. The middle part of the clamping plates 5 is rotatably connected to the two sides of the main body 1 by means of a rotating shaft 6. The top of the clamping plates 5 is connected to the lifting plate 4 by a connecting rod 7. One end of the connecting rod 7 is hinged to the lifting plate 4, and the other end of the connecting rod 7 is hinged to the top of the clamping plate 5. The end of the clamping plate 5 away from the connecting rod 7 forms a clamping end.
[0028] When the drive source 3 drives the lifting plate 4 to descend, the connecting rod 7 drives the clamping plate 5 to rotate around the central pivot point, so that the clamping ends move away from each other and the release operation is achieved; conversely, when the drive source 3 drives the lifting plate 4 to rise, the connecting rod 7 drives the clamping ends of the clamping plate 5 to move closer to each other, so that the clamp 12 is operated. The overall structure is simple, with few parts, resulting in low production cost, and the clamping has good stability.
[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the drive source 3 is a cylinder, and the top of the piston rod of the cylinder is fixed on the lifting plate 4. The vertical extension and retraction of the piston rod realizes the lifting and lowering of the lifting plate 4. In this embodiment, there are 4 connecting rods 7, and there are two connecting rods 7 on each side of the lifting plate 4. The multiple connecting rods 7 improve the connection stability between the clamping plate 5 and the lifting plate 4, and at the same time ensure good power transmission. The lifting plate 4 and the clamping plate 5 are provided with grooves 8 for hinged installation of the ends of the connecting rods 7. The design of the grooves 8 facilitates the installation of the ends of the connecting rods 7, and the grooves 8 provide room for the rotation of the connecting rods 7 to avoid jamming and interference.
[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, a connecting groove 9 is provided on the opposite side of the clamping end of the clamping plate 5. The connecting groove 9 is used for the installation and fixation of the clamp 12. Multiple mounting holes 10 are provided in the connecting groove 9. Both ends of the connecting groove 9 penetrate the end wall of the clamping end. Multiple mounting holes 10 are spaced apart along the length of the connecting groove 9. In actual use, the clamp 12 can be fixedly installed on the clamping end to clamp the brush blank 11. The two ends of the connecting groove 9 facilitate the horizontal sliding insertion of the clamp 12 and also allow for fine adjustment of the horizontal position of the clamp 12. Then, the clamp is fixed by inserting screws into the mounting holes 10. This also enables the clamp 12 to be detachably connected to the clamping plate 5. In different situations, the appropriate clamp 12 can be replaced to clamp different specifications and models of brush blanks 11, effectively improving applicability and practicality. In addition, the design of the clamping groove 15 of the clamping rod 14 can further improve the clamping stability and reduce the possibility of the brush blank 11 falling accidentally.
[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the clamp 12 includes a body 13 and clamping rods 14. The body 13 has a protrusion that matches the connecting groove 9. The clamping rods 14 and the body 13 are connected and fixed by screws to achieve a detachable connection. Four clamping rods 14 are symmetrically arranged, and clamping grooves 15 are provided on the opposite side of the bottom end of the clamping rods 14. When actually clamping the brush blank 11, the side of the brush blank 11 is clamped by the clamping grooves 15 to improve the stability of clamping. In this embodiment, the clamping grooves 15 are arc grooves, which can be used for more brush blanks 11 of different specifications.
[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a swing arm 16 is fixedly connected to the main body 1. The end of the swing arm 16 away from the main body 1 has a through hole 17 for connection and installation. In actual use, the swing arm 16 can be rotatably connected to the required component through the through hole 17, realizing the rotatable installation of the swing arm 16, thereby expanding the activity of another rotational dimension of the clamping mechanism, making it easier to grasp the brush blank 11 in different places. A through groove 18 is provided on the end wall of the swing arm 16. The through groove 18 is a narrow groove and communicates with the through hole 17, so that the installation of the through hole 17 has a certain external expansion adaptability, further improving applicability.
[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, recessed slots 19 are provided on the surface of the clamping plate 5 and the surface of the swing arm 16. The design of the slots 19 effectively saves the material of the clamping plate 5 and the swing arm 16, as well as the overall weight, making the clamping mechanism lighter and easier to handle, install and use.
[0034] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
