Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas spring connector processing technology, and in particular to a clamping mechanism for opening a hole on the surface of a single lug of an automotive gas spring connector. Background Technology
[0002] The core functions of gas springs include support, cushioning, braking, and height / angle adjustment. They are widely used in automobiles, aerospace, medical devices, furniture manufacturing, and construction machinery. Automotive gas springs provide support through a pneumatic system and can adjust the height or angle of certain areas of the vehicle.
[0003] The gas spring ends need to be equipped with different connecting parts depending on the application scenario, such as square forks, single ears, etc. The surface of the single ear needs to be opened with mounting holes. The existing hole opening method mainly involves workers holding the workpiece and clamping it in the fixture before clamping and fixing it, and then carrying out the processing work. This clamping is inconvenient and cannot be automatically discharged. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model addresses the deficiencies in the prior art by providing a clamping mechanism for opening a surface on a single ear of an automotive gas spring connection.
[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: A clamping mechanism for a single-ear surface opening of an automotive gas spring connection includes an operating table, a mounting frame, a sliding seat, a connecting seat, a slider, a screw, a limiting block, a guide frame, a pressure tube, a control mechanism, and a single-ear workpiece body. The mounting frame is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the operating table, the sliding seat is fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting frame, the connecting seat is fixedly mounted on one end of the top of the mounting frame, the slider is engaged inside the connecting seat, the screw is fixedly mounted on the top of the slider, the limiting block is fixedly mounted on one side of the slider, the guide frame is fixedly mounted on the top of the operating table, the pressure tube is engaged inside the guide frame, the control mechanism is located on one side of the operating table, and the single-ear workpiece body is engaged in a groove on one side of the sliding seat. The control mechanism includes a cylinder seat, a cylinder, a push rod, a pressure ring, a magnetic ring, and an inner support sleeve. The cylinder is mounted on the back of the cylinder seat, the push rod is fixedly mounted on the telescopic end of the cylinder, the pressure ring is fixedly mounted on one end of the push rod, the magnetic ring is fixedly mounted on one side of the pressure ring, and the inner support sleeve is sleeved and fixed to the outside of one end of the push rod.
[0006] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, one end of the push rod passes through the pressure tube and is inserted into the mounting hole at one end of the single-ear workpiece body; The end of the push rod is inserted into the mounting hole at the tail end of the single-ear workpiece body, which allows the single-ear workpiece body to be directly pulled out from the sliding seat after processing, thus achieving rapid material discharge.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a knife-removing hole is provided at one end of the sliding seat, a chip removal hole is provided on the surface of the operating table at the bottom outer side of the knife-removing hole, and a material dropping hole is provided on the surface of the operating table at the front of the guide frame. The tool hole facilitates tool processing, the chip removal hole facilitates chip discharge, and the material drop hole on the operating table surface facilitates the automatic falling and collection of extracted materials.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the top of the screw penetrates through and extends to the outer side of the top of the connecting seat, the top of the connecting seat is provided with an oblong hole that mates with the screw, and the limiting block is locked inside one end of the sliding seat; The limiting block mainly limits the movement of the single-ear workpiece body within the sliding seat. The position of the slider can be adjusted to ensure that the pressure ring at the end of the push rod can be engaged in the mounting hole at the tail of the single-ear workpiece body.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a mounting groove for cooperating with a magnetic ring is provided on one side of the pressure ring, and the side of the pressure ring on which the magnetic ring is mounted acts on one end of the pressure tube. The main function of the magnetic ring is to drive the forward-pulled pressure tube to pull back and reset. After the retaining ring at the end of the pressure tube contacts the guide frame, the hydraulic cylinder continues to retract, which can pull the pressure ring out from the mounting hole at the tail of the single-ear workpiece body, thereby causing the single-ear workpiece body to fall automatically.
[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: The clamping mechanism for opening holes on the surface of the single ear of the automotive gas spring uses a feeding device to squeeze the single ear workpiece body to a suitable position, and then applies pressure to effectively fix the single ear body. After fixing, the single ear workpiece body is drilled. After the drilling is completed, the single ear workpiece body is pulled out from the sliding seat and automatically falls from the end of the push rod into the drop hole, achieving the effect of automatic collection and rapid clamping.

Therefore, the directional terms used are for the purpose of explaining and understanding this utility model, and not for limiting this utility model.
[0014] like Figure 1-4 The shown is a clamping mechanism for a single-ear surface opening of an automotive gas spring connection, comprising an operating table 1, a mounting bracket 2, a sliding seat 3, a connecting seat 4, a slider 5, a screw 6, a limiting block 7, a guide frame 8, a pressure tube 9, a control mechanism 10, and a single-ear workpiece body 11. The mounting bracket 2 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the operating table 1, the sliding seat 3 is fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting bracket 2, the connecting seat 4 is fixedly mounted on one end of the top of the mounting bracket 2, the slider 5 is engaged inside the connecting seat 4, the screw 6 is fixedly mounted on the top of the slider 5, the limiting block 7 is fixedly mounted on one side of the slider 5, and the guide frame 8 is fixedly mounted on the top of the operating table 1. The pressure tube 9 is clamped inside the guide frame 8. The control mechanism 10 is set on one side of the operating table 1. The single-ear workpiece body 11 is clamped in the slide groove on one side of the sliding seat 3. The control mechanism 10 includes a cylinder seat 101, a cylinder 102, a push rod 103, a pressure ring 104, a magnetic ring 105, and an inner support sleeve 106. The cylinder 102 is installed on the back of the cylinder seat 101. The push rod 103 is fixedly set on the telescopic end of the cylinder 102. The pressure ring 104 is fixedly set on one end of the push rod 103. The magnetic ring 105 is fixedly set on one side of the pressure ring 104. The inner support sleeve 106 is sleeved and fixed to the outside of one end of the push rod 103.
[0015] Specifically, one end of the push rod 103 passes through the pressure tube 9 and is inserted into the mounting hole at one end of the single-ear workpiece body 11. One end of the sliding seat 3 is provided with a tool-removing hole. On the surface of the operating table 1, a chip removal hole is provided at the bottom outer side of the tool-removing hole. On the surface of the operating table 1, a material dropping hole is provided at the front of the guide frame 8. The top of the screw 6 passes through and extends to the top outer side of the connecting seat 4. The top of the connecting seat 4 is provided with a waist-shaped hole that mates with the screw 6. The limiting block 7 is locked inside one end of the sliding seat 3. One side of the pressure ring 104 is provided with a mounting groove that mates with the magnetic ring 105. The side of the pressure ring 104 with the magnetic ring 105 installed acts on one end of the pressure tube 9.
[0016] In this embodiment, the position of the slider 5 is first adjusted. After loosening the fixing nut on the surface of the screw 6, the position of the slider 5 can be adjusted in the connecting seat 4, thereby determining the amount of insertion of the limiting block 7 into one end of the sliding seat 3. After tightening the nut on the surface of the screw 6 for fixing, the feeding mechanism controls the single-ear workpiece body 11 to be squeezed into the sliding seat 3 until the end of the single-ear workpiece body 11 contacts one end of the limiting block 7.
[0017] Furthermore, the hydraulic cylinder 102 extends, and the pressure ring 104 squeezes the pressure tube 9, causing the pressure tube 9 to move forward under the guidance of the guide frame 8. The rubber inner support sleeve 106 at the end of the push rod 103 is squeezed into the mounting hole at the tail of the single-ear workpiece body 11. The retaining ring at the end of the forward-pushing pressure tube 9 squeezes the tail of the single-ear workpiece body 11, causing the single-ear workpiece body 11 to be squeezed and fixed in the sliding seat 3. At this time, the drilling bit performs drilling from the tool-relief hole. After the drilling is completed, the hydraulic cylinder 102 retracts, first pressing... The magnetic ring 105 on the outside of the ring 104 will attract the iron pressure tube 9, causing it to move backward with the contraction of the hydraulic cylinder 102 until the retaining ring at its end contacts one side of the guide frame 8. The magnetic ring 105 separates from the pressure tube 9, at which point the single-ear workpiece body 11 is pulled out from the sliding seat 3. The hydraulic cylinder 102 continues to contract, causing the inner support sleeve 106 to be pulled out from the mounting hole at the tail end of the single-ear workpiece body 11. The single-ear workpiece body 11 falls from the material drop hole on the surface of the operating table 1, realizing automatic material discharge and rapid collection.
