[0035] The technical solutions provided by the various embodiments of this application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0036] Please see Figure 1-4As shown in this embodiment: a pressure-adjustable fixture includes a fixed base 1. The fixed base 1 has a vertical slide 11 extending vertically along its central axis. An adjusting bolt 2 that can move in the vertical direction is installed at the upper end of the vertical slide 11. A clamping member 3 for clamping a workpiece 9 is installed at the lower end of the vertical slide 11. The workpiece 9 is inserted into the central through hole of the clamping member 3. An inner sleeve 4 that can slide in the vertical direction is provided in the vertical slide 11. The inner sleeve 4 and the adjusting bolt 2 are connected by an elastic member 5. When the workpiece 9 is installed in the clamping member 3, the upper end of the workpiece 9 abuts against the lower end face of the inner sleeve 4. By adjusting the position of the adjusting bolt 2 on the vertical slide 11, the compression amount of the elastic member 5 is adjusted, thereby changing the pressure applied by the inner sleeve 4 to the workpiece 9.

[0037] It should be noted that the elastic element 5 is a spring.

[0038] In some embodiments, such as Figures 7-8 As shown, the vertical slide 11 consists of an adjustment section 12, a sliding section 13, and a mounting section 14 from top to bottom. The apertures of the mounting section 14 and the adjustment section 12 are larger than the aperture of the sliding section 13. It should be noted that this segmented aperture design provides precise installation and positioning space for each functional component: the large apertures of the adjustment section 12 and the mounting section 14 can be adapted to larger components such as the fixed sleeve 6 and the clamping component 3, ensuring their stable assembly; the small aperture of the sliding section 13 can provide precise guidance for the inner sleeve 4 inside, limiting the radial displacement of the inner sleeve 4 during the sliding process and ensuring the axial transmission accuracy of the pressure of the inner sleeve 4 on the workpiece 9. At the same time, the stepped structure formed by different apertures can provide axial positioning for the fixed sleeve 6, the clamping component 3, etc., preventing them from accidentally shifting during operation, further improving the assembly stability and motion reliability of the overall structure. Each segment has a clear function and does not interfere with each other, facilitating the individual disassembly and maintenance of components.

[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figures 5-8 As shown, the adjusting part 12 is connected to the fixed sleeve 6 via an internal thread. The fixed sleeve 6 has a sliding through hole 61 along its central axis. The rod of the adjusting bolt 2 is threaded to the upper end of the sliding through hole 61. The inner sleeve 4 can be slidably installed in the sliding through hole 61. It should be noted that the internal thread connection between the adjusting part 12 and the fixed sleeve 6 enables the quick disassembly and fine-tuning of the fixed sleeve 6. The sliding through hole 61 of the fixed sleeve 6 serves as a unified guiding reference, allowing the thread adjustment of the adjusting bolt 2 and the sliding movement of the inner sleeve 4 to share the same axis. This effectively avoids radial misalignment caused by assembly deviations and ensures a linear correspondence between the compression of the elastic element 5 and the pressure of the inner sleeve 4.

[0040] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6As shown, a blind hole 41 is provided at the central axis of the inner sleeve 4. The opening of the blind hole 41 is located on the upper end face of the inner sleeve 4. The elastic element 5 is housed in the blind hole 41. A pressure pin 7 is provided between the inner sleeve 4 and the adjusting bolt 2. The rod of the pressure pin 7 is inserted into the blind hole 41. The lower end face of the rod of the pressure pin 7 abuts against the upper end face of the elastic element 5, and the upper end face of the pressure pin 7 abuts against the lower end face of the adjusting bolt 2. It should be noted that the blind hole 41 of the inner sleeve 4 provides axial constraint space for the elastic element 5, which can effectively prevent the elastic element 5 from shifting laterally or tilting during compression or rebound. The angled design ensures that the elastic force always acts on the workpiece 9 axially. The setting of the pressure pin 7 forms a rigid transition structure, which not only avoids the local stress concentration caused by the direct contact between the adjusting bolt 2 and the elastic element 5, but also uniformly converts the displacement of the adjusting bolt 2 into the compression of the elastic element 5, making the pressure adjustment more linear and controllable. In addition, the insertion and cooperation between the pressure pin 7 and the blind hole 41 can also center the inner sleeve 4 and the central axis of the adjusting bolt 2, ensuring the coaxiality of the overall structure, reducing the additional torque caused by eccentricity, and further improving the stability of the fixture in clamping the workpiece 9.

[0041] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the rod of the adjusting bolt 2 is threaded with a locking nut 8. After the fixture adjusts the pressure on the workpiece 9, the locking nut 8 can be tightened onto the upper end face of the fixing sleeve 6 to lock the position of the adjusting bolt 2. It should be noted that the locking nut 8 provides a reliable mechanical anti-loosening guarantee for pressure adjustment: after the adjusting bolt 2 completes the pressure preset, by tightening the locking nut 8 onto the upper end face of the fixing sleeve 6, the friction between the threads can be used to form an axial preload, which effectively counteracts the loosening of the adjusting bolt 2 caused by vibration, impact and other factors during the working process, ensuring that the compression of the elastic element 5 remains stable, thereby maintaining a constant clamping pressure on the workpiece 9. In addition, this structure does not require an additional complex locking mechanism. It can achieve quick locking and unlocking simply by the threaded engagement of the nut and the bolt, which simplifies the operation process and allows for flexible loosening when the pressure needs to be readjusted, taking into account both pressure stability and adjustment flexibility.

[0042] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1-3As shown, the clamping member 3 is installed inside the mounting part 14. The clamping member 3 includes a bushing 31. A mounting through hole 35 for mounting the workpiece 9 is provided at the central axis of the bushing 31. Two strip-shaped elastic grooves 32 are provided circumferentially on the outer peripheral wall of the lower end of the bushing 31. The elastic grooves 32 are used to allow the lower end of the bushing 31 to undergo elastic deformation when the workpiece 9 is inserted into the mounting through hole 35. It should be noted that the design of the elastic grooves 32 provides a controllable elastic deformation margin for the lower end of the bushing 31: when the workpiece 9 is inserted, the lower end of the bushing 31 can... The radial adaptive adjustment achieved by the opening of the elastic groove 32 can easily accommodate workpieces 9 within different tolerance ranges, and can generate uniform radial clamping force during deformation reset, improving the stability of workpiece 9 installation; at the same time, the elastic deformation process can buffer the impact force when workpiece 9 is inserted, avoiding damage to workpiece 9 or bushing 31 caused by hard contact, which is especially suitable for clamping precision or brittle workpieces 9; in addition, the two circumferentially spaced strip grooves make the deformation stress distribution more uniform, reduce local fatigue wear, and extend the service life of bushing 31.

[0043] It should be noted that the bushing 31 is made of PEEK, which has wear resistance, low coefficient of friction and good toughness. The workpiece 9 is installed inside the bushing 31, which can protect the workpiece 9 from being pinched or scratched.

[0044] In some embodiments, such as Figure 9 As shown, the clamping component 3 includes an O-ring 33. An annular groove 36 is formed on the outer peripheral wall of the lower section of the bushing 31. The O-ring 33 is housed in the annular groove 36. It should be noted that the matching design of the O-ring 33 and the annular groove 36 can significantly improve the clamping performance: the elasticity of the O-ring 33 itself can form a continuous radial preload on the lower section of the bushing 31. When the lower end of the bushing 31 undergoes elastic deformation due to the insertion of the workpiece 9, the O-ring 33 will generate a reverse elastic force with the deformation, further enhancing the clamping force of the bushing 31 on the workpiece 9. Moreover, the O-rings 33 evenly distributed around the annular groove 36 can ensure a more balanced radial force and avoid excessive local stress on the workpiece 9. At the same time, the O-ring 33 can buffer the vibration transmission between the workpiece 9 and the bushing 31, reduce the surface damage of the workpiece 9 caused by hard friction, and play a protective role.

[0045] In some embodiments, such as Figures 2-3As shown, the bushing 31 is installed in the mounting part 14 via the bearing 34. It should be noted that the bearing 34 can significantly optimize the relative motion performance between the bushing 31 and the mounting part 14: On the one hand, the bearing 34 can convert the sliding friction between the bushing 31 and the mounting part 14 into rolling friction, greatly reducing the friction coefficient during relative motion, reducing component wear, and extending the overall service life of the fixture; on the other hand, the bearing 34 can form a precise radial positioning for the bushing 31, ensuring the coaxiality of the bushing 31 and the fixed seat 1, preventing the bushing 31 from radially shifting or shaking during operation, and improving the coaxiality accuracy of the workpiece 9 clamping. In addition, when the workpiece 9 needs to rotate around its own axis, the bearing 34 can enable the bushing 31 to drive the workpiece 9 to achieve low-resistance and high-stability rotation, avoiding rotation jamming caused by excessive frictional resistance, and further expanding the applicable scenarios of the fixture.

[0046] The same or similar parts between the various embodiments in this specification can be referred to mutually. Each embodiment focuses on describing the differences from other embodiments.

[0047] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
