[0016] The usage and beneficial effects of this magnesium alloy sample gripping device are as follows: When using this device, it is installed on the corresponding drive fixture. The drive fixture moves the entire device to the gripping position. A reduction motor rotates, driving a lead screw, which, in turn, moves a sliding disc vertically through the threaded engagement of the lead screw and the screw hole. Simultaneously, the vertical movement of the sliding disc pulls the upper end of the swing arm, causing the swing arm to swing and grip the magnesium alloy sample. After gripping, the drive fixture moves the entire device to the placement position to place the magnesium alloy sample. The reduction motor then reverses, releasing the sample. During the gripping process, the pressure plate swings along with the swing arm until it clamps against the side of the sample. The pressure plate increases the clamping contact area and friction. When the pressure plate is not gripping a sample, a spring is used to limit its movement to prevent it from jumping.

Detailed Implementation

[0027] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0028] In this utility model, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, outside" in the terminology only represent the orientation of the term in its conventional use or are common terms understood by those skilled in the art, and should not be regarded as a limitation on the term.

[0029] See Figure 1-6 The magnesium alloy sample gripping device shown includes a base 1, on which multiple swing arms 11 are hinged circumferentially. A mounting plate 3 is connected to the upper end of the base 1 via multiple arc supports 2. A sliding disc 8 is slidably mounted inside the multiple arc supports 2, and a screw hole is provided in the center of the sliding disc 8. A reduction motor 5 is mounted on the mounting plate 3, and a lead screw 21 with a threaded engagement with the screw hole is axially connected to the shaft end of the reduction motor 5. Radial slots corresponding to the swing arms 11 are provided on the sides of the sliding disc 8, and waist grooves 25 are provided on both sides of the radial slots. Protrusions 24 that can slide within the waist grooves 25 are provided on both sides of the upper end of each swing arm 11. A lower extension arm 17 bent inwards is provided at the lower end of each swing arm 11, and a pressure plate 13 is rotatably mounted at the end of the lower extension arm 17. The upper back of the pressure plate 13 is connected to the lower extension arm 17 via a spring 18.

[0030] By implementing the above technical solution, when using the magnesium alloy sample gripping device, the device is installed on the corresponding drive fixture. The drive fixture moves the entire device to the gripping position. The rotation of the reduction motor 5 drives the lead screw 21 to rotate, and the threaded engagement between the lead screw 21 and the screw hole drives the sliding disc 8 to move vertically. Simultaneously, the vertical movement of the sliding disc 8 pulls the upper end of the swing arm 11 to move, thus swinging the swing arm 11 to grip the magnesium alloy sample. After gripping, the device is moved to the placement position by the drive fixture to place the magnesium alloy sample. The reduction motor 5 then reverses to release the magnesium alloy sample. During the gripping of the magnesium alloy sample by the swing arm 11, the pressure plate 13 swings along with the clamping process until it clamps against the side of the magnesium alloy sample. The pressure plate 13 increases the clamping contact area and increases friction. When the pressure plate 13 is not gripping a magnesium alloy sample, a spring 18 is used to limit the pressure plate 13 to prevent it from jumping. The driving fixture, such as a three-axis drive platform or a multi-axis robotic arm, is connected to the mounting plate 3 and can move the magnesium alloy sample gripping device as a whole.

[0031] In this embodiment, the bottom of the swing arm 11 is provided with a U-shaped opening, and shaft holes are provided on both sides of the U-shaped opening. A protrusion 20 is provided at the center of the back of the pressure plate 13, and convex shafts 12 rotating around the shaft holes are provided on both sides of the protrusion 20. With this arrangement, the pressure plate 13 can rotate about the axis of the convex shafts 12. The bottom of the swing arm 11 is an arc coaxial with the convex shafts 12, and the pressure plate 13 contacts the arc surface, increasing the structural strength.

[0032] In this embodiment, a first connecting plate 23 is provided on the upper back of the pressure plate 13, and a second connecting plate 16 is provided on the front upper end of the lower extension arm 17. Both the first connecting plate 23 and the second connecting plate 16 are provided with through holes, and the two ends of the spring 18 are provided with hooks that can hook into the through holes. This arrangement provides a way to install the spring 18, with hooks at both ends of the spring 18 hooking into the corresponding through holes.

[0033] In this embodiment, a rubber pad 14 is provided on the inner side of the pressure plate 13, and a plurality of laterally extending T-shaped strips 19 are provided on the back of the rubber pad 14. A plurality of T-shaped grooves are provided on the inner side of the pressure plate 13 to fit into the T-shaped strips 19. With this arrangement, the rubber pad 14 can increase the friction with the magnesium alloy sample on the one hand, and avoid damaging the magnesium alloy sample on the other hand.

[0034] In this embodiment, the chassis 1 has multiple recesses 9 arranged circumferentially; a pin 27 is disposed within each recess 9, and a rotating arm 26 rotatably connected to the pin 27 is disposed in the middle of the swing arm 11, with the upper end of the rotating arm 26 extending toward the center of the chassis 1. With this arrangement, the middle of the swing arm 11 swings around the pin 27, and the rotating arm 26 moves the lower end of the swing arm 11 outward, increasing the clamping radius.

[0035] In this embodiment, to further improve the clamping effect of the swing arm 11 structure, an upper extension arm 28 parallel to the main body of the swing arm 11 is connected to the upper end of the rotating arm 26. A transverse arm 29 parallel to the rotating arm 26 is provided at the upper end of the upper extension arm 28, and protrusions 24 are disposed on both sides of the transverse arm 29. When the sliding disc 8 moves vertically, the protrusions 24 on both sides can slide within the waist groove 25.

[0036] In this embodiment, a bearing 10 is installed in the middle of the chassis 1, and the lower end of the lead screw 21 is inserted into the bearing 10. This arrangement increases the rotational stability of the lead screw 21.

[0037] In this embodiment, a vertical guide groove 15 is provided on the inner side of the arc support 2, and a sliding block 22 that slides within the vertical guide groove 15 is provided on the outer side of the sliding disk 8. This arrangement allows the sliding block 22 to slide vertically within the vertical guide groove 15, preventing the sliding disk 8 from rotating.

[0038] In this embodiment, a fixing plate 6 is connected to the mounting plate 3 via multiple connecting rods 4, and a shaft arm 7 is connected to the upper end of the fixing plate 6. This arrangement allows the shaft arm 7 to connect with the drive fixture.

[0039] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific details of the above embodiments. Within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solution of the present invention, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0040] It should also be noted that the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any suitable way without contradiction. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, this utility model will not describe the various possible combinations separately.

[0041] Furthermore, various different embodiments of this utility model can be combined in any way, as long as they do not violate the spirit of this utility model, they should also be regarded as the content disclosed by this utility model.
