[0028] Please see Figures 1-4A material clamping device includes a mounting bracket 1, an inner cooling clamp 2, an outer cooling clamp 3, a drive assembly, an outer clamp connecting assembly, and an inner clamp connecting assembly. The drive assembly is connected to the mounting bracket 1. The first output end of the drive assembly is connected to the outer cooling clamp 3 through the outer clamp connecting assembly. The second output end is connected to the inner cooling clamp 2 through the inner clamp connecting assembly. The first and second output ends of the drive assembly extend simultaneously to drive the outer clamp connecting assembly and the inner clamp connecting assembly to move, thereby achieving the centering and clamping of the inner cooling clamp 2 and the outer cooling clamp 3.
[0029] Specifically, the drive assembly includes a double-headed open-end clamping cylinder 10, which is connected to the mounting bracket 1 and located between the first connecting plate 4 and the second connecting plate 7.

[0030] Specifically, the double-ended open-clamp cylinder 10 is mounted on the cylinder mounting plate 15. The lower end of the cylinder mounting plate 15 is connected to a flat key 16, which is connected to the flat key groove on the upper surface of the mounting bracket 1. The front and rear ends of the flat key 16 have a 5mm gap with the keyway of the mounting bracket 1, which can be used to adjust the alignment of the inner cooling clamp 2 and the outer cooling clamp 3 during installation.
[0031] Specifically, a buffer 17 is connected to the double-headed open clamp cylinder 10. The buffer fixing plate is installed above the front mounting bracket 1 of the double-headed open clamp cylinder 10 and is fixed with screws, which plays a buffering role when the cooling clamp is clamped.
[0032] Specifically, the inner clamping plate connecting assembly includes a first connecting plate 4, with a first guide rod 5 connected to each end of the first connecting plate 4, and a first clamping block 6 connected to the other end of each of the two first guide rods 5. The upper ends of the two first clamping blocks 6 are connected to the inner cooling clamping plate 2.
[0033] Specifically, the extension or retraction of the extended end of the double-headed open clamping cylinder 10 drives the first connecting plate 4 to move, and the movement of the first connecting plate 4 drives the inner cooling clamping plate 2 to move via the first guide rod 5.
[0034] Specifically, the outer clamping plate connecting assembly includes a second connecting plate 7, with a second guide rod 8 connected to each end of the second connecting plate 7, and a second clamping block 9 connected to the other end of each of the two second guide rods 8. The upper ends of the two second clamping blocks 9 are connected to the outer cooling clamping plate 3.
[0035] Specifically, the extension or retraction of the extended end of the double-headed open clamping cylinder 10 drives the second connecting plate 7 to move, and the movement of the second connecting plate 7 drives the outer cooling clamping plate 3 to move via the second guide rod 8.
[0036] Specifically, it also includes two guide seats 11, which are respectively connected to the front ends of the mounting bracket 1 on both sides; the guide seats 11 are respectively provided with a first guide hole 12 and a second guide hole 13, and a linear bearing 14 is provided in both the first guide hole 12 and the second guide hole 13; the first guide rod 5 passes through the first guide hole 12 and its outer wall is slidably connected to the linear bearing 14; the second guide rod 8 passes through the second guide hole 13 and its outer wall is slidably connected to the linear bearing 14.
[0037] Specifically, it also includes a cylinder mounting assembly; the cylinder mounting assembly includes a cylinder mounting plate 15, on which a double-ended open-clamp cylinder 10 is mounted. The lower end of the cylinder mounting plate 15 is connected to a flat key 16, which is connected to a flat key groove on the upper surface of the mounting bracket 1. A buffer 17 is connected to both the first and second output ends of the double-ended open-clamp cylinder 10.
[0038] Specifically, a first cooling channel is provided inside the inner cooling clamp 2, a first cooling passage is provided inside the first clamping block 6, and the inside of the first guide rod 5 is a hollow channel, which connects to the first cooling passage, and the first cooling passage connects to the first cooling channel; the end of the first guide rod 5 away from the inner cooling clamp 2 is connected to a first L-shaped threaded joint.
[0039] Specifically, a second cooling channel is provided inside the outer cooling clamp 3, a second cooling passage is provided inside the second clamping block 9, and the second guide rod 8 has a hollow channel inside, which connects to the second cooling passage, which in turn connects to the second cooling channel; the end of the second guide rod 8 away from the outer cooling clamp 3 is connected to a second L-shaped threaded connector. A first sealing ring is provided at the connection between the first guide rod 5 and the first clamping block 6. A second sealing ring is provided at the connection between the second guide rod 8 and the second clamping block 9. This prevents cooling water leakage.
[0040] Specifically, the extension and retraction of the double-headed open-end clamping cylinder 10 causes the inner cooling plate 2 and the outer cooling plate 3 to clamp together. Cooling water can flow through water pipes via L-shaped threaded joints, the first guide rod 5, and the second guide rod 8 into the inner cooling plate 2 and the outer cooling plate 3. The clamped cooling plates can cool the bottle pack. The double-headed open-end clamping cylinder 10 has a synchronization mechanism function, which can always ensure that the cooling plates are centered and clamped. It can ensure centered clamping and prevent the flaring phenomenon during centered clamping, thereby effectively preventing the phenomenon of one end not being clamped tightly, and thus ensuring that the bottle pack is effectively centered when the mold is open.
[0041] This material handling clamping device effectively prevents the cooling plates from not clamping simultaneously from front to back, resulting in a flared opening. In traditional material handling clamping devices, the synchronization mechanism is located at the guide rod. If there is a machining deviation at any point, whether it is the rack, the synchronizing shaft positioning hole, or the gear positioning hole, the cooling plates will not be clamped tightly after assembly. This requires replacing parts, which is very troublesome. The synchronization mechanism of this new structure is located inside the open clamping cylinder, ensuring quality and preventing the cooling plates from not clamping tightly.
[0042] This material handling clamping device connects the outer cooling clamp 3 to the outer clamping plate connecting assembly via the drive assembly; the drive assembly also connects the inner cooling clamp 2 to the inner clamping plate connecting assembly. The synchronization mechanism is moved into the cylinder, thus eliminating the need for a series of complex-to-machine parts such as racks, gears, and synchronizer shafts. This avoids situations where the cooling clamps cannot be clamped tightly due to machining quality issues, reducing costs and making assembly simpler and more convenient than before.
[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model. Although the 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 this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
