[0002] The gas meter connection plate is a key component connecting the gas meter and the pipeline, playing a role in ensuring a stable connection and unobstructed gas transmission path. It is generally made of high-pressure resistant and corrosion-resistant materials such as metal, and has good sealing and pressure resistance to prevent gas leakage.
[0003] The automated production device for gas meter connection plates integrates mechanical, electrical, and sensing technologies to automate the entire process from raw material processing to finished product output. It uses PLC and other control devices to issue commands to drive robotic arms, conveyor belts, and other actuators. With the help of sensors to monitor the processing status in real time, it automatically completes processes such as stamping, welding, and assembly.
[0004] In existing technologies, some automated production equipment for gas meter connection plates can only fix the external parts of the connection plate with traditional fixing devices, making it difficult to effectively support the internal parts. As a result, the connection plate is prone to shaking due to uneven force during processing, which affects processing accuracy and reduces product quality. Therefore, an automated production equipment for gas meter connection plates is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides an automated production device for gas meter connection plates, which aims to improve the problem that connection plates in the prior art are prone to shaking due to uneven force.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] An automated production device for gas meter connection plates includes a housing with an internal cavity. A fixed box is rotatably connected to the left inner wall of the cavity. A cylinder is fixedly connected to the left inner wall of the fixed box. A driven platform is fixedly connected to the driving end of the cylinder. Multiple driven plates are rotatably connected to the outside of the driven platform. Multiple driven slots are opened inside the fixed box. A driven block is slidably connected inside the driven slot. A cylinder is fixedly connected to the right side of the driven platform. A linkage platform is fixedly connected to the driving end of the cylinder. Multiple linkage plates are fixedly connected to the right side of the linkage platform. A linkage block is rotatably connected to the right side of the linkage plate. Multiple linkage slots are opened inside the fixed box. A support block is slidably connected inside the linkage slot. A carrier plate is slidably connected to the rear inner wall of the cavity. Multiple portable components are fixedly connected to the front side of the carrier plate.
[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0009] The portable component includes a base plate, the interior of which has two connecting slots. Multiple springs are fixedly connected to the top inner wall of one of the connecting slots, and a sliding block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the multiple springs.
[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0011] The internal threaded connection of the moving block has two screws, and the two moving blocks are provided with cutting tools on their adjacent sides;
[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0013] The driven plate is rotatably connected to the left side of the driven block, and the right side of the linkage block is rotatably connected to the left side of the support block;
[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0015] A power supply compartment is fixedly connected to the left side of the housing, and a control console is provided on the front side of the housing;
[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0017] The external sliding connection of the moving block is inside the connecting groove, and the external rear thread of the screw is threaded to the inside of the base plate;

[0019] Two guide rods are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cavity, and a gripping mechanism is slidably connected to the outside of the two guide rods;
[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0021] The housing has an internal slot, and the rear side of the base plate is fixedly connected to the front side of the carrier plate.
[0022] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0023] 1. In this utility model, the operation of cylinder one drives the driven platform to move to the right, which in turn drives the driven plate to move synchronously, thereby pulling the driven block to slide in the driven groove and clamping and fixing the gas meter connecting plate externally. By starting cylinder two, the linkage platform is driven to move to the right, which drives the linkage plate to push the linkage block, which in turn drives the support block to slide outward in the linkage groove, fixing the inner wall of the connecting plate. Thus, the gas meter connecting plate is clamped and fixed from the outside and inside by the coordinated work of cylinder one and cylinder two, respectively, effectively avoiding the shaking of the connecting plate during grinding. At the same time, the design of clamping from the inside and outside simultaneously enhances the fixing effect and improves the practicality of the device.
[0024] 2. In this utility model, by loosening the screws on the moving blocks, the springs utilize elastic deformation to push the moving blocks on both sides to slide to the sides, thereby releasing the moving blocks from fixing the tool. By moving the moving blocks on both sides inward, and then tightening the screws, the corresponding positions inside the base plate guide the screws, causing the moving blocks to re-clamp the tool. This greatly shortens the downtime for tool replacement, significantly improves production efficiency, is simple and convenient to operate, reduces the difficulty and labor intensity of operators, and has a stable and reliable structure, ensuring the firmness of tool fixing and the safety of the processing process.

[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 3This utility model provides an embodiment of an automated production device for gas meter connection plates, including a housing 1. The housing 1 provides installation space and support for internal devices. A cavity is provided inside the housing 1, which provides installation space for the internal devices. A fixing box 2 is rotatably connected to the left inner wall of the cavity. The fixing box 2 provides fixing and support for a cylinder 3. The cylinder 3 is fixedly connected to the left inner wall of the fixing box 2. The cylinder 3 is externally fixed during the grinding of the connection plate. A driven platform 4 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the cylinder 3. The driven platform 4 receives force from the cylinder 3 and moves. Multiple driven plates 5 are rotatably connected to the outside of the driven platform 4. The driven plates 5 receive force from the driven platform 4 and move synchronously. Multiple driven slots 6 are provided inside the fixing box 2, which provide space for driven blocks 7.
[0033] A driven block 7 is slidably connected inside the driven groove 6. The driven block 7 receives the pulling force from the driven plate 5 and slides inward to fix and polish the outside of the connecting plate. A cylinder 2 8 is fixedly connected to the right side of the driven platform 4. The cylinder 2 8 is the power source for fixing the inside of the connecting plate. A linkage platform 9 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the cylinder 2 8. The linkage platform 9 moves by receiving the force from the cylinder 2 8. Multiple linkage plates 10 are fixedly connected to the right side of the linkage platform 9. The linkage plates 10 move synchronously by receiving the force from the linkage platform 9. A linkage block 11 is rotatably connected to the right side of the linkage plate 10, thereby pushing the linkage. Block 11 operates synchronously. The interior of the fixed box 2 has multiple linkage grooves 12. The linkage grooves 12 provide space for the support block 13. The support block 13 is slidably connected inside the linkage groove 12. The support block 13 receives the force from the linkage block 11 and slides outward to fix the inner wall of the connecting plate. It cooperates with the external fixation to fix the outside and inside of the connecting plate, so that it will not shake when it is being polished. The rear inner wall of the cavity is slidably connected to the carrier plate 14. The carrier plate 14 provides fixation and support for the portable components. Multiple portable components are fixedly connected to the front side of the carrier plate 14.
[0034] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4The portable component includes a base plate 15, which provides space for connecting slots 16. Two connecting slots 16 are formed inside the base plate 15, which provide fixation and support for springs 17. Multiple springs 17 are fixedly connected to the top inner wall of one of the connecting slots 16. The springs 17 have an elastic function and provide elastic support for its moving block 18. The moving block 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the multiple springs 17. The two moving blocks 18 provide fixation and support for the cutter 20. Two screws 19 are threaded inside the moving block 18. When the cutter 20 is placed in the appropriate position, the screws 19 are rotated to guide the screws 19 into the corresponding position of the base plate 15, thereby guiding the moving block 18 to move inward and thus fixing the cutter 20. The cutter 20 is set on the adjacent side of the two moving blocks 18. The cutter 20 is used to grind the gas meter connection plate.
[0035] Reference Figures 2 to 4 The driven plate 5 is rotatably connected to the left side of the driven block 7. The driven block 7 receives the force from the driven plate 5 and slides synchronously, thereby fixing the outside of the gas meter connection plate. The right side of the linkage block 11 is rotatably connected to the left side of the support block 13. The support block 13 receives the thrust from the linkage block 11 and slides outward, thereby fixing the inside of the gas meter connection plate. The left side of the housing 1 is fixedly connected to the power supply chamber 21, which provides motor power to the device. This is prior art and will not be described in detail. The front side of the housing 1 is provided with a control console 22, which allows the operator to observe the real-time production status of the device and control the device. The outside of the moving block 18 is slidably connected to the inside of the connecting groove 16, which provides opening space for the moving block 18.
[0036] The screw 19 is threaded to the inside of the base plate 15. When the operator screws in the screw 19, it can guide the moving block 18 and thus drive the external device to be fixed. Two guide rods 24 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cavity. The guide rods 24 provide guidance and support for the gripping mechanism 25. The gripping mechanism 25 is slidably connected to the outside of the two guide rods 24. The gripping mechanism 25 is used to provide a power source for the robotic arm and can grip and place the polished gas meter connection plate. The housing 1 has a placement groove 23 inside. The placement groove 23 is used to place the base plate 15 of the gas meter connection plate, which facilitates the gripping mechanism 25 to place the polished gas meter connection plate. The rear side of the base plate 15 is fixedly connected to the front side of the carrier plate 14. The carrier plate 14 provides fixation and support for the base plate 15.
[0037] Working principle: When using this automated production device for gas meter connection plates, when the gas meter connection plates need to be clamped and fixed for grinding, cylinder 3 operates, which in turn drives the driven table 4 to move to the right. The driven table 4 then drives the driven plate 5 to move synchronously, which in turn pulls the driven block 7 to slide in the driven groove 6, clamping and fixing the outside of the gas meter connection plate. At the same time, by starting cylinder 8, the linkage table 9 is driven to move to the right. The linkage table 9 drives the linkage plate 10 to push the linkage block 11, which in turn drives the support block 13 to slide outward in the linkage groove 12, fixing the inner wall of the connection plate. Through the coordinated action of cylinder 3 and cylinder 8, the connection plate is firmly clamped from both the inside and outside, ensuring that it will not shake during the grinding process.
[0038] When the tool 20 needs to be disassembled, the operator loosens the screws 19 on the shift block 18, and then the spring 17 uses elastic deformation to push the shift blocks 18 on both sides to slide to the sides. The shift blocks 18 then loosen and release the tool 20, so the old tool 20 can be taken out. When installing the new tool 20, the tool 20 is placed in a suitable position, and the shift blocks 18 on both sides are moved inward. Then, the screws 19 are tightened. The corresponding position inside the base plate 15 guides the screws 19, so that the shift blocks 18 re-clamp the tool 20, quickly completing the tool 20 replacement process and improving production efficiency.
[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
