[0023] It should be noted that all directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in this utility model embodiment are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.

[0024] Furthermore, in this utility model, the use of terms such as "first" and "second" is for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated.

[0025] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connection," "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, "fixing" can mean a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; it can mean a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can mean a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can mean the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise explicitly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0027] This utility model proposes an automatic circumferential gripping device for brake disc assembly, which aims to use an automated mechanism to fit and assemble the brake disc with the wheel hub, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0028] The automatic circumferential gripping device for brake disc assembly proposed in this utility model will be described below in specific embodiments:

[0029] In the technical solution of this embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, an automatic circumferential gripping device for a brake disc assembly includes:

[0030] Frame 1, with guide rail 11 installed on it;

[0031] Telescopic cylinder 2 is slidably connected to guide rail 11 via a slider and is driven by drive mechanism 12.

[0032] The fixed frame 3 is fixedly connected to the piston rod of the telescopic cylinder 2, and the fixed frame 3 is provided with a slide rail 31 along its length.

[0033] Two floating grippers 4 are slidably connected to the slide rail 31;

[0034] The bidirectional telescopic cylinder 5 is connected to two floating grippers 4 via its main telescopic arm and auxiliary telescopic arm, respectively, and is used to drive the two floating grippers 4 to move towards or away from each other.

[0035] Furthermore, the drive mechanism 12 is a linear module.

[0036] Furthermore, the floating gripper 4 has gripping parts 41 at both ends for contacting the brake disc, and a support plate 42 in the middle of the floating gripper 4.

[0037] Furthermore, a soft protective layer 411 is provided on the end face of the gripping part 41.

[0038] Furthermore, it also includes a first cable chain 6, one end of which is fixed to the telescopic cylinder 2, and the other end is slidably connected to the frame 1.

[0039] Furthermore, it also includes a second cable chain 7, one end of which is fixed to the telescopic cylinder 2, and the other end is slidably connected to the fixed frame 3.

[0040] Furthermore, it also includes a linear guide post, one end of which is movably mounted on the telescopic cylinder 2, and the other end is fixed on the fixing frame 3, for guiding purposes.

[0041] Working principle:

[0042] After the brake disc reaches the predetermined position on the roller conveyor;

[0043] The linear module is activated, driving the telescopic cylinder 2 to move above the brake disc;

[0044] The telescopic cylinder 2 is activated, which drives the fixed frame 3 to move downwards until it reaches the position of the brake disc;

[0045] When the bidirectional telescopic cylinder 5 is activated, it drives the two floating grippers 4 to move towards each other on the slide rail 31, thereby causing the gripping part 41 to abut against the brake disc and the support plate 42 to abut against the bottom of the brake disc.

[0046] After clamping the brake disc, activate the telescopic cylinder 2 to drive the fixed frame 3 to move upward to a safe position;

[0047] The linear module is activated, driving the telescopic cylinder 2 to move along the guide rail 11 to the designated position.

Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
