Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of high-efficiency processing technology for washing machine clutches, specifically a high-efficiency processing equipment for washing machine clutches based on modular assembly. Background Technology
[0002] In the modern home appliance industry, washing machines, as indispensable household appliances, receive significant attention from consumers regarding their performance and quality. The washing machine clutch, as the core component of a top-loading fully automatic washing machine, is considered the "heart" of the machine, playing a crucial role. After the electric motor starts, the washing machine clutch receives power from the motor via a V-belt. During the washing and rinsing stages, it ensures the washing machine rotates smoothly at low speed; during the spin-drying stage, it achieves high-speed rotation; and at the end of the spin-drying process, it precisely executes the braking operation. A conventional washing machine clutch has a complex structure, typically composed of numerous components working together, including the impeller shaft, spin-drying shaft, torsion spring, brake band, shift fork, clutch lever, ratchet, pawl, clutch sleeve, outer shaft, and gear shaft.
[0003] According to the authorized patent "CN211350378U", a high-efficiency winding processing equipment for clutch coils includes a base, a movable seat, and a rotating shaft mounted on the movable seat. The movable seat is movably connected to the base. A left wall plate and a right wall plate are fixed on the movable seat. The rotating shaft is fixed to the right side of the left wall plate. A drive motor is fixed to the left side of the left wall plate. The output shaft of the drive motor is connected to the rotating shaft. A first circular plate is also fixed to the left end of the rotating shaft. A pair of first cylinders are symmetrically fixed to the left side of the first circular plate. A perforated circular plate that can move left and right is also fitted on the rotating shaft on the right side of the circular plate. The piston rods of the two cylinders pass through the first circular plate and are connected to the perforated circular plate. A device plate is rotatably connected to the right wall plate through a bearing. A second cylinder is fixed to the right side of the device plate. The piston rod end of the second cylinder passes through the device plate and is fixed to the second circular plate. This utility model has high processing efficiency.
[0004] The above-mentioned technical solutions are susceptible to fatigue and lack of experience during manual operation, which can lead to workpiece positioning deviations, resulting in machining defects such as dimensional deviations and surface damage, thus reducing the product qualification rate. At the same time, the mechanical limit structure lacks flexibility and is difficult to adapt to the flexible production needs of multiple clutch models. The equipment changeover and debugging time is long and the production efficiency is low. Furthermore, the repeatability of traditional positioning mechanisms is limited and cannot meet the precision machining requirements of key clutch components (such as teeth and journals), thus restricting the manufacturing capability of high-end products.
[0005] Therefore, this utility model provides a high-efficiency processing equipment for washing machine clutches based on modular assembly. Utility Model Content

[0017] Beneficial effects
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0019] (1) This modular assembly-based high-efficiency processing equipment for washing machine clutches uses a motor-driven lead screw to rotate the moving mechanism, which in turn drives the collar, connecting rod, and stabilizing plate to slide precisely within the base groove, enabling flexible horizontal displacement of the clutch. This mechanism can quickly and accurately transport the clutch to processing stations such as grinding machines. Compared to manual handling or traditional mechanical positioning, it significantly improves processing efficiency and positioning accuracy, reduces processing errors caused by positional deviations, and increases product qualification rate.
[0020] (2) This modular assembly-based high-efficiency processing equipment for washing machine clutches further expands the processing adaptability of the equipment through its lifting mechanism. The cooperation between the slide bar, moving block, and lifting groove allows the connecting plate, movable tube, and locking rod to rise and fall vertically along the stable plate. The design of the compression spring and positioning hole enables the locking rod to achieve rapid positioning and locking during the lifting process. The clutch can be precisely adjusted to a suitable height according to different processing needs, meeting the diverse height requirements of multiple processes such as drilling and grinding, greatly enhancing the versatility and flexibility of the equipment.

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] Please see Figure 1-4 A high-efficiency processing equipment for washing machine clutch based on modular assembly includes a base 1, an electrical control box 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, a controller 3 arranged on the outside of the electrical control box 2, a grinding machine 4 arranged on the outside of the electrical control box 2, a clamping mechanism 5 arranged on the top of the base 1, and a moving mechanism 6 arranged on the top of the base 1.
[0028] The clamping mechanism 5 includes a clamping cover 51, a threaded tube 52 is fixedly connected to the outside of the clamping cover 51, and a screw 53 is threadedly connected to the inside of the threaded tube 52.
[0029] The moving mechanism 6 includes a motor 61, a lead screw 62 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 61, a collar 63 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the lead screw 62, a connecting rod 64 is fixedly connected to the top of the collar 63, a stabilizing plate 65 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting rod 64, and a sliding groove 66 is provided inside the base 1.
[0030] Furthermore: threaded tubes 52 are symmetrically distributed on the outside of clamping cover 51, screw 53 passes through the inner wall of clamping cover 51, and one end of screw 53 is movably connected to the inside of clamping cover 51. Clamping cover 51 is installed on the outside of stabilizing plate 65. Motor 61 is fixedly connected to the side wall of base 1. Lead screw 62 is rotatably connected to the inside of base 1. Connecting rod 64 is slidably connected to the inside of slide groove 66, and the top of connecting rod 64 is fixedly connected to the bottom of stabilizing plate 65.
[0031] It should be noted that: the clamping cover 51 is the core positioning component, and the symmetrically distributed threaded tubes 52 on the outside form a helical transmission structure with the screw 53. The screw 53 passes through the inner wall of the clamping cover 51, and its end contacts the inner wall through a bearing or other movable connection to avoid damage to the workpiece during rotation. When the screw 53 is rotated, the threaded engagement causes the screw 53 to move towards the center of the clamping cover 51, and the clutch component is clamped by the elastic pad or clamping block at the end. The symmetrically distributed threaded tubes 52 ensure uniform clamping force, which is suitable for clutch shaft or disc parts of different specifications.
[0032] Specifically: Motor 61 drives lead screw 62 to rotate, and collar 63 converts the rotational motion into linear motion through lead screw 62 and nut pair. Connecting rod 64 passes through slide groove 66 inside base 1 and connects to stabilizing plate 65, realizing lateral movement of stabilizing plate 65 on the plane of base 1. Lead screw 62 adopts high-precision trapezoidal thread or ball screw 62 to improve transmission efficiency and positioning accuracy. Linear guide rail (not shown) can be set on the inner wall of slide groove 66 to reduce the moving resistance of connecting rod 64 and improve stability.
[0033] As a further improvement of this utility model, a lifting mechanism 7 is provided on the outer side of the stabilizing plate 65. The lifting mechanism 7 includes a slide rod 71, a moving block 72 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the slide rod 71, a lifting groove 73 is provided inside the stabilizing plate 65, a connecting plate 74 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the moving block 72, a movable tube 75 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the connecting plate 74, a snap-fit rod 76 is movably connected inside the movable tube 75, a compression spring 77 is fixedly connected to the snap-fit rod 76, and a positioning hole 78 is provided on the side wall of the stabilizing plate 65.
[0034] Furthermore: the slide rod 71 is snapped onto the outside of the clamping cover 51, and one end of the slide rod 71 is slidably connected to the inside of the lifting groove 73. The moving block 72 is slidably connected to the outside of the stabilizing plate 65 through the slide rod 71. The connecting plate 74 is symmetrically distributed on the outside of the moving block 72. The snap-fit rod 76 is movably connected to the inside of the moving tube 75 through the compression spring 77, and the snap-fit rod 76 is adapted to the positioning hole 78.
[0035] It should be noted that: one end of the slide rod 71 is engaged with the outside of the clamping cover 51, and the other end is inserted into the lifting groove 73 of the stabilizing plate 65. The moving block 72 drives the clamping cover 51 to slide vertically through the slide rod 71. The connecting plate 74 connects the movable tube 75 and the moving block 72. The compression spring 77 pushes the locking rod 76 to engage with the positioning hole 78 to achieve height locking.
[0036] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.
[0037] Working principle: Before processing, the clutch must be precisely fixed. The core component of the clamping mechanism 5 is the clamping cover 51. The threaded tubes 52 and screws 53 symmetrically distributed on the outside of the cover form a fastening system. After the operator places the clutch in the clamping cover 51, he rotates the screw 53. With the help of the thread transmission characteristics, the screw 53 is pushed along the axis, passes through the inner wall of the clamping cover 51, and gradually tightens from multiple directions to lock the clutch firmly. This multi-point compression fixing method provides a stable foundation with zero displacement for subsequent processing.
[0038] After the clutch is fixed, it needs to be moved to the grinding station. The moving mechanism 6 is then started. The motor 61 installed on the side wall of the base 1 drives the lead screw 62 to rotate. The collar 63 is threaded with the lead screw 62 and moves linearly along the axis of the lead screw 62 during rotation. The connecting rod 64 at the top is embedded in the sliding groove 66 of the base 1, which both guides and stabilizes it. The collar 63 drives the stabilizing plate 65 to move horizontally, thereby enabling the clamping mechanism 5 to accurately reach the designated processing position of the grinding machine 4 and achieve precise horizontal positioning.
[0039] If different height parts of the clutch need to be processed, the lifting mechanism 7 comes into play. One end of the slide rod 71 is engaged with the clamping cover 51, and the other end slides into the lifting groove 73 of the stabilizing plate 65. The moving block 72 is sleeved on the slide rod 71 and can be raised and lowered freely. During operation, the moving block 72 is pulled upward, which drives the connecting plate 74, the movable tube 75 and the locking rod 76 to move synchronously. The locking rod 76 is blocked by the side wall of the stabilizing plate 65 and compresses the spring 77 to retract. When the target height is reached, the hand is released and the spring 77 rebounds. The locking rod 76 is precisely engaged in the corresponding positioning hole 78 to complete the vertical height locking and ensure that the grinder 4 can cover the entire height area of the clutch.
[0040] The entire equipment operates in a series of interconnected steps: first, the clamping mechanism 5 fixes the clutch, then the moving mechanism 6 completes the horizontal positioning. If there is a height requirement, the lifting mechanism 7 is activated for adjustment. After the position is calibrated, the operator starts the grinding machine 4 through the controller 3 on the outside of the electrical control box 2. During the processing, the moving mechanism 6 and the lifting mechanism 7 can be flexibly controlled according to the actual situation to dynamically adjust each part of the clutch, ensuring that each processing surface can be accurately ground, and ultimately achieving efficient and high-precision clutch processing production.
