Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tooling and fixture technology, and in particular to an installation fixture for end face sealing gaskets. Background Technology

[0002] In the fields of mechanical manufacturing and industrial automation, slider assemblies are widely used in CNC machine tools, automated production lines, precision instruments, and other equipment. Their performance directly affects the accuracy, stability, and service life of the equipment. End face gaskets prevent dust, impurities, liquids, and other contaminants from entering the slider, protecting critical components and ensuring its normal operation.

[0003] Traditionally, the installation of end-face seals on sliders relies primarily on manual labor. Operators must attach the seal to the slider's end face and screw it in. Since end-face seals are required at both ends of a slider, manual slider flipping is inefficient and slow, making it unsuitable for large-scale production. Furthermore, prolonged repetitive manual work easily leads to worker fatigue, further reducing efficiency and increasing the defect rate. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is: in order to solve the technical problems of low efficiency and slow installation speed of manual flipping of slider in the prior art, this utility model provides an installation fixture for end face sealing gasket, which shortens the slider installation time and improves work efficiency.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: an installation fixture for end face sealing gaskets, used to install sealing gaskets on both ends of a slider, comprising: a base, a fixture seat, and a flipping assembly. The fixture seat and the flipping assembly are both mounted on the upper surface of the base. One end of the flipping assembly is rotatably connected to the fixture seat. The flipping assembly flips between a horizontal and a vertical state. A guide rail for installing the slider is provided on the flipping assembly, and the guide rail is rotatably mounted on the flipping assembly. The specific technical effects are: by setting the guide rail for quick installation of the slider, and cooperating with the flipping assembly to flexibly flip between a horizontal and a vertical state, the guide rail for positioning the slider allows for quick flipping of the slider's side to an upward position, facilitating subsequent installation of the sealing gasket. The design of the guide rail rotatably mounted on the flipping assembly enables flexible adjustment of the slider's assembly surface. Through the cooperation of the guide rail and the flipping assembly, the end faces of different sides of the slider can be adjusted to an upward position, improving installation efficiency.

[0006] Furthermore, the guide rail is bolted to the flipping assembly, and a collar is fitted over the bolt at the connection between the bolt and the guide rail. The specific technical effect is that the bolt ensures a secure connection between the guide rail and the flipping assembly, while the collar, fitted over the bolt and positioned at the connection, allows the guide rail to rotate relative to the bolt. This design allows the operator to easily rotate the guide rail, enabling flexible adjustment of the slider's mounting surface and meeting the installation requirements of different sides of the slider.

[0007] Furthermore, one end of the flipping assembly is pinned to the fixture seat via a pin.

[0008] Furthermore, one end of the flipping assembly is hinged to the fixture seat via a rotating shaft and a bearing. The rotating shaft is installed at one end of the flipping assembly, and the bearing is sleeved outside the rotating shaft and installed on the fixture seat.

[0009] Furthermore, the fixture base is provided with a stop assembly for abutting the slider when the flipping assembly is in a vertical position. The specific technical effect is that when the flipping assembly is in a vertical position, the slider tends to fall under gravity. The stop assembly forms a stable support below the slider, further improving the installation stability and accuracy of the sealing gasket.

[0010] Furthermore, the stop assembly includes an upper stop and a lower stop. The lower stop is mounted on the fixture seat, and the upper stop is rotatably mounted on the lower stop. The upper stop is operably disposed on the lower stop, and the slider can abut against either the upper or the lower stop. The specific technical advantages are: the upper stop is rotatably mounted on the lower stop, and the rotation of the upper stop allows for switching between standard and extended slider types. One set of fixtures can be used for multiple slider types, reducing the procurement cost of dedicated equipment required for different slider types, and providing strong equipment versatility.

[0011] Furthermore, the stop assembly also includes equal-height bolts and hinges, with both ends of the hinges respectively mounted on the upper stop and the lower stop via the equal-height bolts. The specific technical effect is that the structure of the equal-height bolts and hinges enables the upper stop to flip relative to the lower stop.

[0012] Furthermore, the flipping assembly includes a rotating arm and a track base, the rotating arm being rotatably connected to the clamp seat, the track base being connected to the rotating arm, and the guide rail being rotatably mounted on the track base.

[0013] Furthermore, the mounting fixture for the end face sealing gasket also includes a resistance adjustment device, which is threadedly connected to the fixture seat, and the end of the resistance adjustment device is operably abutted against the flipping assembly.

[0014] Furthermore, the resistance adjustment device is a ball-head plunger, and the fixture seat has a threaded hole for installing the ball-head plunger. The flipping assembly has a groove that matches the ball head of the ball-head plunger. The specific technical effect is that by adjusting the depth of the ball head of the ball-head plunger, the flipping resistance of the flipping assembly can be flexibly adjusted to meet the operational needs of different operators.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] (1) By setting a guide rail and a flipping component, the installation time of the sealing gasket on the upper surface of a single slider is greatly shortened. In large-scale production, the sealing gasket installation work of more sliders can be completed per unit time, which greatly improves production efficiency. It also reduces laborious operations such as manually flipping sliders, reduces the labor intensity of workers, and reduces the number of workers required for the same production task, thereby reducing labor costs.

[0017] (2) This utility model realizes the conversion between ordinary and extended sliders by rotating the upper baffle. One set of fixtures can be used for multiple slider types, reducing the procurement cost of special equipment required for different slider types and making the equipment highly versatile.

[0018] (3) This utility model adjusts the flipping resistance of the flipping component through a resistance adjustment device to meet the operating needs of different operators. Attached Figure Description

[0029] Example 1

[0030] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, the mounting fixture for the end face sealing gasket in this embodiment is used to install the sealing gaskets 101 on both ends of the slider 1. It includes a base 2, a fixture seat 3, and a flipping assembly 4. Both the fixture seat 3 and the flipping assembly 4 are mounted on the upper surface of the base 2. One end of the flipping assembly 4 is rotatably connected to the fixture seat 3. The flipping assembly 4 can flip between a horizontal and a vertical state. A guide rail 5 for installing the slider 1 is provided on the flipping assembly 4, and the guide rail 5 is rotatably mounted on the flipping assembly 4. Therefore, by setting the guide rail 5 for quick installation of the slider 1, and cooperating with the flipping assembly 4 to flexibly flip between a horizontal and a vertical state, and cooperating with the guide rail 5 for positioning the slider 1, the side of the slider 1 can be quickly flipped to an upward position, facilitating the subsequent installation of the sealing gasket 101. The design of the guide rail 5 rotatably mounted on the flipping assembly 4 enables flexible adjustment of the slider 1's mounting surface. Through the cooperation of the guide rail 5 and the flipping assembly 4, the end faces of different sides of the slider 1 can be adjusted to an upward position, improving installation efficiency.

[0031] In this embodiment, the guide rail 5 is mounted on the flipping assembly 4 by bolts 6. A collar 7 is fitted over the bolt 6 and positioned at the connection between the bolt 6 and the guide rail 5. Thus, the bolt 6 ensures a secure connection between the guide rail 5 and the flipping assembly 4, while the collar 7, fitted over the bolt 6 and positioned at the connection between the bolt 6 and the guide rail 5, allows the guide rail 5 to rotate relative to the bolt 6. This allows the operator to easily rotate the guide rail 5, enabling flexible adjustment of the slider 1's mounting surface and meeting the installation requirements of different sides of the slider 1.

[0032] In this embodiment, one end of the flipping component 4 is pinned to the fixture seat 3 via a pin 8.

[0033] In this embodiment, the clamp base 3 is provided with a stop assembly 9 for abutting the slider 1 when the flipping assembly 4 is in a vertical state. Thus, when the flipping assembly 4 is in a vertical state, the slider 1 tends to fall under the action of gravity, and the stop assembly 9 forms a stable support below the slider 1, further improving the installation stability and installation accuracy of the sealing gasket 101.

[0034] In this embodiment, the stop assembly 9 includes an upper stop 901 and a lower stop 902. The lower stop 902 is mounted on the fixture base 3, and the upper stop 901 is rotatably mounted on the lower stop 902. The upper stop 901 is operably disposed on the lower stop 902, and the slider 1 can abut against either the upper stop 901 or the lower stop 902. Thus, the upper stop 901 is rotatably mounted on the lower stop 902, and the rotation of the upper stop allows for the switching between ordinary and extended slider 1 types. One set of fixtures can be used for multiple slider 1 types, reducing the procurement cost of dedicated equipment required for different slider 1 types, and the equipment has strong versatility.

[0035] In this embodiment, the stop assembly 9 further includes a height equalizing bolt 903 and a hinge 904. The two ends of the hinge 904 are respectively mounted on the upper stop 901 and the lower stop 902 by the height equalizing bolt 903. Thus, the structure of the height equalizing bolt 903 and the hinge 904 enables the upper stop 901 to flip relative to the lower stop 902.

[0036] In this embodiment, the flipping assembly 4 includes a rotating arm 401 and a track base 402. The rotating arm 401 is rotatably connected to the clamp seat 3, the track base 402 is connected to the rotating arm 401, and the guide rail 5 is rotatably mounted on the track base 402.

[0037] In this embodiment, the mounting fixture for the end face sealing gasket also includes a resistance adjustment device 10, which is threadedly connected to the fixture seat 3, and the end of the resistance adjustment device 10 is operably abutted against the flipping assembly 4.

[0038] In this embodiment, the resistance adjustment device 10 is a ball-head plunger 1001. The fixture seat 3 has a threaded hole 301 for mounting the ball-head plunger 1001, and the flipping assembly 4 has a groove 403 that matches the ball head of the ball-head plunger 1001. Therefore, by adjusting the depth of the ball head of the ball-head plunger 1001, the flipping resistance of the flipping assembly 4 can be flexibly adjusted to meet the operating needs of different operators.

[0039] The working process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, the ordinary slider 1 with the sealing gasket 101 to be installed is installed on the guide rail 5. The flipping component 4 is flipped from the horizontal state to the vertical state. At this time, one end face of the slider 1 is facing upward, the upper stop 901 is set on the lower stop 902, and the other end face of the slider 1 abuts against the upper stop 901. Then the sealing gasket 101 on one end face of the slider 1 is installed. After the installation is completed, the flipping component 4 is flipped from the vertical state to the horizontal state. The guide rail 5 is rotated, and the slider 1 installed on the guide rail 5 rotates with the guide rail 5. The flipping component 4 is flipped from the horizontal state to the vertical state again. At this time, the other end face of the slider 1 is facing upward, and the end face of the slider 1 with the sealing gasket 101 installed abuts against the upper stop 901. Then the sealing gasket 101 on the other end face of the slider 1 is installed. Thus, the installation of the sealing gasket 101 on both end faces of one slider 1 is completed. The ordinary slider 1 is then removed from the guide rail 5.

[0041] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation methods and protection scope of the present invention.

[0042] Based on the above, this utility model also has the following embodiments:

[0043] Example 2

[0045] The difference from Embodiment 1 is that: the upper stop 901 is flipped to one side of the lower stop 902, and at this time the upper stop 901 is not set on the lower stop 902. The elongated slider 1, on which the sealing gasket 101 is to be installed, is installed on the guide rail 5. The flipping assembly 4 is flipped from the horizontal state to the vertical state, at which time one end face of the slider 1 faces upward, and the other end face of the slider 1 abuts against the lower stop 902. Then the sealing gasket 101 on one end face of the slider 1 is installed. After the installation is completed, the flipping assembly 4 is flipped from the vertical state to the vertical state. Flip the slider 1 from the horizontal position to the horizontal position, rotate the guide rail 5, and the slider 1 mounted on the guide rail 5 will rotate with the guide rail 5. Flip the flipping assembly 4 from the horizontal position to the vertical position again. At this time, the other end face of the slider 1 is facing upward, and the end face of the slider 1 with the sealing gasket 101 installed is abutting against the lower stop block 902. Then install the sealing gasket 101 on the other end face of the slider 1. This completes the installation of the sealing gasket 101 on both end faces of the slider 1. Remove the extended slider 1 from the guide rail 5.

[0046] Example 3:

[0047] The difference from Embodiment 1 is that in this embodiment, one end of the flipping component 4 is hinged to the fixture seat 3 via a rotating shaft and a bearing. The rotating shaft is installed at one end of the flipping component 4, and the bearing is sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft and installed on the fixture seat 3.

[0048] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0049] (1) By setting the guide rail 5 in conjunction with the flipping component 4, the installation time of the sealing gasket 101 on the upper surface of a single slider 1 is greatly shortened.

It also reduces laborious operations such as manually flipping sliders 1, reduces the labor intensity of workers, reduces the number of workers required for the same production task, and thus reduces labor costs.

[0050] (2) This utility model realizes the transformation between ordinary and extended slider 1 by rotating the upper baffle. One set of fixtures can be used for multiple slider 1 types, reducing the procurement cost of special equipment required for different slider 1 types and making the equipment highly versatile.

[0051] (3) The present invention adjusts the flipping resistance of the flipping component 4 by means of the resistance adjustment device 10 to meet the operating needs of different operators.

[0052] The above description is based on the preferred embodiments of this utility model. Through the above description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined by the scope of the claims.
