Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts inspection tools, and in particular to a product clamping mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of modern manufacturing, increasingly higher requirements are being placed on the positioning accuracy and clamping stability of workpieces during processing, assembly, and inspection. In machining processes, reliable clamping of the workpiece is a prerequisite for ensuring dimensional accuracy; in product inspection, stable clamping of the workpiece is key to ensuring the accuracy of inspection data.
[0003] However, existing clamping mechanisms still have many shortcomings: 1. Insufficient adjustment precision: Most clamping mechanisms lack precise scale markings for lifting and lowering adjustment, relying on the operator's experience or rough markings for adjustment, which can easily cause workpiece positioning deviations during the adjustment of the fixture or sample holder.
[0004] 2. Poor angle adaptability: The clamping head is mostly designed with a fixed angle, which cannot be adaptively adjusted according to the tilt angle or curved shape of the workpiece surface.
[0005] 3. Insufficient connection reliability: The fixing structure with external carriers (such as gauges and sample holders) is simple in design and lacks precise positioning and locking mechanisms.
[0006] 4. Poor ease of operation: The lifting drive method of some clamping mechanisms is poorly designed, making the adjustment process laborious and inefficient, and making it difficult to achieve precise clamping quickly.
[0007] Therefore, how to provide a product clamping mechanism that has precise adjustment scale, adaptive multi-angle clamping, accurate and reliable connection with external carrier, and convenient operation, in order to solve the problems of low adjustment accuracy, poor angle adaptability, unstable connection and inconvenient operation in the existing technology, has become an urgent problem to be solved.

[0026] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a product clamping mechanism according to an embodiment of this application; as shown... Figure 1As shown, in this embodiment, a product clamping mechanism includes a base 1, a scale cylinder 2, a vertical lifting rod 3, a universal connecting shaft 4, a universal head 5, a locking nut 6, a positioning round seat 7, and a manual knob 8.
[0027] Specifically, the base 1 is a basic support component, generally L-shaped. One end of the base 1 has a fastener positioning hole 11 and a positioning pin hole 12, and the other end has a locking hole 13. The lower end boss of the scale cylinder 2 is inserted into the through hole of the base 1. The locking assembly (not shown in the figure) locks the scale cylinder 2 and the base 1 through the locking hole 13. The positioning round seat 7 is fixed below the base 1 at the same end as the scale cylinder 2. The vertical lifting rod 3 passes through the interior of the scale cylinder 2, the base 1, and the positioning round seat 7, and its lower end is inserted into the hole of the manual knob 8. The universal connecting shaft 4 is installed and fixed to the front end of the vertical lifting rod 3 by the locking nut 6. The front end of the universal connecting shaft 4 is connected to the universal head 5.
[0028] Figure 2 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a product clamping mechanism according to an embodiment of this application; as shown Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the universal joint shaft ball end 41 at the front end of the universal joint shaft 4 and the groove 51 of the universal head 5 form a spherical joint connection. With the help of the matching contact of the spherical surfaces, the universal head 5 can rotate around the center of the ball end 41 to achieve multiple degrees of freedom, thereby flexibly adapting to products with different angles. The universal joint shaft 4 is inserted into the hole at the front end of the vertical lifting rod 3 and is axially fixed by the locking nut 6.
[0029] According to the optional example, in this embodiment, the scale cylinder 2 has a T-shaped through hole inside, and the vertical lifting rod 3 has a stepped rod structure with its small end facing downward. The vertical lifting rod 3 and the T-shaped through hole of the scale cylinder 2 form a suitable sliding fit, which can slide stably along the axial direction of the T-shaped through hole; at the same time, the lower end of the T-shaped through hole of the scale cylinder 2 forms an axial limit on the stepped surface of the vertical lifting rod 3, which can effectively limit the maximum downward stroke of the vertical lifting rod 3 and prevent it from dislodging from the scale cylinder 2. This ensures the guiding accuracy of the vertical lifting rod 3 during the sliding process, and also prevents structural interference or over-travel problems caused by excessive lifting through mechanical limiting, thereby ensuring the operational stability and safety of the clamping mechanism during the belt adjustment process.
[0030] According to an optional example, in this embodiment, the base 1 is fitted with fasteners through fastener positioning holes 11, and positioning pins are inserted into positioning pin holes 12 to achieve precise fixation with the fixture or sample holder. The vertical lifting rod 3 is raised and lowered under the drive of the manual knob 8, which drives the universal head 5 to move synchronously. The contact between the universal head 5 and the product achieves a clamping action. Combined with the universal adjustment of the head and the lifting amount controlled by the scale, the precise position of the product can be adjusted when matching the fixture or sample holder to meet the accuracy requirements of assembly or testing.
[0031] Figure 3This is a partial schematic diagram of a product clamping mechanism according to an embodiment of this application; as shown... Figure 3 As shown, the graduated cylinder 2 has a graduated groove 21 and graduated lines 211 within the groove. The graduated groove 21 has a semi-circular groove structure, and the graduated lines 211 are engraved on the bottom of the groove. The vertical lifting rod 3 is exposed in the section corresponding to the graduated groove 21, and its surface has a graduated indicator groove 31. This graduated indicator groove 31 is precisely aligned with the graduated lines 211 of the graduated cylinder 2. When the vertical lifting rod 3 is raised or lowered by manually turning the knob 8, the change in the relative position of the graduated indicator groove 31 and the graduated lines 211 can intuitively reflect the adjustment amount, achieving precise axial dimension control.
[0032] The application principle of the product clamping mechanism in this embodiment of the utility model is as follows: First, place the base 1 in the corresponding position on the fixture or sample holder. Install the fasteners through the fastener positioning holes 11 on the base 1, and simultaneously insert the positioning pins into the positioning pin holes 12 to ensure a secure connection between the base 1 and the fixture or sample holder. In use, first, based on the approximate position of the product to be adjusted, turn the manual knob 8 to drive the vertical lifting rod 3 to rise and fall axially along the scale cylinder 2. Observe the scale indicator groove 31 on the vertical lifting rod 3 and the scale line 211 within the scale groove 21 of the scale cylinder 2. Adjust the universal head 5 to a height close to that of the product to complete the coarse adjustment.
[0033] Once the universal head 5 approaches the product, manually turn it to align its contact surface with the product surface and adjust it to fit the product angle. Then, continue to fine-tune the manual knob 8 to tighten the universal head 5 against the product. During this process, control the tightness by observing the correspondence between the scale indicator groove 31 and the scale line 211 to complete the belt adjustment.
[0034] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. 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. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
