Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a machining fixture that can be quickly clamped during the machining process, and belongs to the field of machining fixture technology. Background Technology

[0002] Machining is a process of processing mechanical parts using mechanical equipment. Its purpose is to alter the size, shape, surface characteristics, or performance of mechanical parts to meet design and functional requirements. Common machining equipment includes lathes, drilling machines, milling machines, planers, grinding machines, punching machines, and CNC machine tools, among others. These machines can perform operations such as cutting, stamping, and dicing. During the machining process, fixtures are used to clamp and position the workpiece, ensuring its stable position throughout the process and guaranteeing machining accuracy.

[0003] On some high-speed lathes or CNC machining centers, the requirements for fixtures are more stringent. Not only must the fixtures be securely clamped, but they must also clamp quickly to match the machining speed, thereby significantly improving machining efficiency. Therefore, ordinary reciprocating fixtures cannot meet these requirements, necessitating the development of a high-efficiency fixture capable of rapid clamping and releasing to satisfy the rapid clamping needs of machining equipment. Utility Model Content

[0021] This utility model consists of a housing 1, a stepper motor 2, a drive shaft 3, a drive gear 4, a driven shaft 5, a driven gear 6, a crank wheel 7, a crank connecting rod 8, a pin 9, a slider 10, and a slide rail 11.

[0022] As shown in the figure, the housing 1 is a hollow cuboid composed of a front cover 12, a rear cover 13, a middle frame 14, and fixing bolts 15. The front cover 12 and the rear cover 13 are rectangular plates, and the middle frame 14 is a rectangular frame located between the front cover 12 and the rear cover 13. The four corners of the front cover 12, the rear cover 13, and the middle frame 14 have connecting screw holes 16, and the fixing bolts 15 connect the front cover 12, the middle frame 14, and the rear cover 13 into one unit through the connecting screw holes 16.

[0023] As shown in the diagram, the stepper motor 2 is installed in the middle position outside the rear cover 13 of the housing 1. The rear cover 13 and the front cover 12 of the housing 1 each have a drive shaft hole 17 in their middle portions. The drive shaft hole 17 in the rear cover 13 is a through hole, while the drive shaft hole 17 in the front cover 12 is a blind hole on the inner wall of the front cover. The two ends of the drive shaft 3 are rotatably engaged with the through hole in the rear cover 13 and the blind hole in the front cover 12, respectively. The drive gear 4 is fixedly installed on the drive shaft 3 between the rear cover 13 and the front cover 12 via a flat key. The motor shaft of the stepper motor 2 is connected to the drive shaft 3, and the stepper motor 2 drives the drive shaft 3 to rotate. The drive gear 4 installed on the drive shaft 3 rotates along with the drive shaft 3.

[0024] As shown in the figure, there are driven shaft holes 18 on both sides of the drive shaft hole 17 of the housing 1. Two driven shafts 5 are installed on both sides of the drive shaft 3 of the housing 1 through the driven shaft holes 18. The driven shaft hole 18 of the rear cover 13 of the housing 1 is a blind hole, and the driven shaft hole 18 of the front cover 12 of the housing is a through hole. The diameter of the driven shaft hole 18 matches the diameter of the driven shaft 5. The rear ends of the two driven shafts 5 are respectively embedded in the blind holes of the two driven shaft holes 18 of the rear cover 13, and the front ends of the two driven shafts 5 pass through the through holes of the driven shaft holes 18 of the front cover 12. The front ends of the two driven shafts 5 are respectively installed with crank wheels 7 through flat keys.

[0025] As shown in the figure, two driven shafts 5 are each fixed with a driven gear 6, which meshes with the driving gear 4. When the driving gear 4 rotates with the driving shaft 3, it drives the driven gear 6 to rotate. The two driven shafts 5 rotate with the two driven gears 6, thereby driving the crank wheels 7 at the front end of the two driven shafts 5 to rotate.

[0026] As shown in the diagram, one end of each of the two crank connecting rods 8 is connected to the edge of each of the two crank wheels 7 by pins 9, and the other end of each of the two crank connecting rods 8 is connected to the outer end of each of the two sliders 10 by pins 9. One end of each of the two crank connecting rods 8 is connected to the upper and lower parts of each of the two crank wheels 7 by pins 9, and the other end of each of the two crank connecting rods 8 is connected to the rear part of each of the two sliders 10 by pins 9. Thus, when the drive shaft 3 and drive gear 4 rotate counterclockwise, the two driven gears 6 and driven shaft 5 rotate clockwise, and the two crank wheels 7 also rotate clockwise. Since the two crank connecting rods 8 are connected to the upper and lower parts of the two crank wheels 7 respectively, when the two crank wheels 7 rotate clockwise, they can drive the two crank connecting rods 8 to move simultaneously to the right and left, respectively. The two crank connecting rods 8 can then drive the two sliders 10 to move towards each other in the slide rail 11, clamping and releasing the machined parts.

[0027] As shown in the figure, slide rails 11 are fixed on the surface of the front cover 12 of the box 1 above and below the two sliders 10, respectively. The sliders 10 are embedded in the slide rails 11, and the two sliders 10 are in sliding engagement with the two slide rails 11 respectively. The front ends of the two sliders 10 are opposite each other, and the machine is clamped between the front ends of the two sliders 10.

[0028] As shown in the figure, two slide rails 11 are fixed to the surface of the front cover 12 of the housing 1 by mounting bolts 23. The upper and lower parts of the front cover 12 of the housing 1 have slide rail mounting screw holes 20, which are parallel to the length direction of the front cover 12. Each slide rail 11 consists of a fixing plate 21 and a slide groove 22. The fixing plate 21 is a rectangular strip with fixing holes that correspond to the slide rail mounting screw holes 20 on the front cover 12. The mounting bolts 23 securely connect the fixing plate 21 to the slide rail mounting screw holes 20 on the front cover 12. The slide groove 22 is an L-shaped long strip. The upper edge of the slide groove 22 is welded to the lower end of the fixing plate 21, and the lower outer side of the slide groove 22 is perpendicular. A slider 10 is embedded inside the L-shaped long strip of the slide groove 22, and the slider 10 slides against the inner wall of the slide groove 22.

[0029] As shown in the figure, the slider 10 is a cuboid. The upper and lower ends of the two sliders 10 are respectively embedded in the upper and lower slide rails 11 on both sides of the front cover 12 of the housing 1, allowing them to slide within the slide rails 11. The rear of each slider 10 has an arc-shaped groove 24 for mounting the crank connecting rod 8. The thickness of the bottom surface of the arc-shaped groove 24 matches the thickness of the crank wheel 7. The two ends of the crank connecting rod 8 are placed on the upper surface of the crank wheel 7 and the bottom surface of the arc-shaped groove 24, respectively. Pin holes are located on the upper surface of the crank wheel 7 and the bottom surface of the arc-shaped groove 24, and pins 9 are connected to the front end of the crank connecting rod 8 through these pin holes. The front ends of the two sliders 10 are arc-shaped, matching the diameter of the machine component, which is clamped between the arc-shaped front ends of the two sliders 10.

[0030] The usage process of this utility model is as follows:

[0031] Before clamping the machine part, select a slider 10 that matches the exterior of the machine part so that the arc shape at the front end of the slider 10 can tightly clamp the two sides of the machine part.

[0032] When clamping the machine part, the stepper motor 2 is started. The motor shaft of the stepper motor 2 drives the drive shaft 3 and the drive gear 4 to rotate. The drive gear 4 drives the two driven shafts 5 to rotate through the two driven gears 6. The two driven shafts 5 drive the crank wheel 7 on the surface of the front cover 12 of the housing 1 to rotate. The two crank wheels 7 drive the two sliders 10 to move left and right in the slide rail 11 through the crank connecting rod 8 respectively. The machine part is clamped between the two sliders 10.
