Description

Technical Field

The steps and principles for releasing the workpiece are similar and will not be described in detail.

[0052] In a modified embodiment of this application, to increase the stability of the heart clamp operation, a longitudinal limiting groove 25 is also provided on the clamping platform 2, and a longitudinal limiting shaft 73 is also provided on the synchronous lifting frame 7; the longitudinal limiting shaft 73 is movably disposed within the longitudinal limiting groove 25.

[0055] The sensor located outside the cylinder 1 can form a detection pair with the magnetic component located on the piston part 111. In practical applications, multiple Hall sensors can be set to detect the working status of the clamp. For example, a release position sensor SENS01 is set at the upper part of the cylinder 1, and a clamping position sensor SENS02 is set at the bottom of the cylinder 1. When the magnetic component on the piston part 111 reaches the SENS01 position, a stop signal is generated to prevent over-releasing. When the magnetic component on the piston part 111 reaches the SENS02 position, a stop signal is generated to prevent over-clamping.
