Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nut plate loading equipment, and in particular to a nut plate loading mechanism and positioning clamping device. Background Technology

[0002] For a long time, the batch loading, positioning, and clamping of nut plates has mainly relied on a combination of integrated molding technology, high-efficiency casting equipment, and precision machining processes. These methods have improved the strength, precision, and production efficiency of nut plates to a certain extent. However, these traditional technologies have a series of significant limitations. First, complex structure and difficult maintenance are common problems of traditional batch loading, positioning, and clamping devices for nut plates. These devices are often composed of a large number of precision components, with complex structures and high integration. Once a failure occurs, the maintenance process is cumbersome and costly, seriously affecting the continuity and efficiency of the production line. In addition, such equipment consumes a lot of energy, increasing operating costs. In view of this, we propose a nut plate loading mechanism and positioning and clamping device. Utility Model Content

At the same time, this feeding component has a simple structure, is easy to maintain, and is conducive to the promotion of equipment.

[0009] Another objective of this invention is to provide a positioning and clamping device, which aims to solve the problem that existing clamping devices mostly support heavy objects through clamping mechanisms, resulting in a large load on the clamping mechanism and reducing the overall flexibility of the device.

[0018] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0019] The terminology used in this invention refers to those general terms currently widely used in the art in consideration of the functionality of this invention; however, these terms may vary according to the intent, precedent, or new technology of those skilled in the art. Furthermore, specific terms may be chosen by the applicant, and in such cases, their detailed meanings will be described in the detailed description of this invention. Therefore, the terminology used in this specification should not be construed as simple names, but rather based on the meaning of the terms and the overall description of this invention.

[0020] This embodiment provides a nut plate loading mechanism, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a rotating disk 2 is rotatably mounted on the upper part of the base 1. A feeding plate 31 is fixedly mounted on the rotating disk 2. A storage sleeve 32 is fixedly mounted on one end of the feeding plate 31. The storage sleeve 32 has a feed inlet 36 at the end away from the feeding plate 31. A nut plate is placed in the storage sleeve 32, and a discharge port 33 is provided at the connection between the storage sleeve 32 and the feeding plate 31 for the nut plate to slide.

[0021] In use, the nut plate can be first placed into the storage sleeve 32 through the feed port 36. Under the action of the nut plate's own weight, the nut plate in the storage sleeve 32 will enter the unloading plate through the discharge port 33, realizing the automatic feeding operation by gravity. This feeding method relies on gravity, which reduces the cost of use compared with the traditional feeding method. At the same time, this feeding component 3 has a simple structure, is easy to maintain, and is conducive to the promotion of the equipment.

[0022] like Figure 3 As shown, a guide protrusion 34 is fixedly installed on the feeding plate 31. The guide protrusion 34 is slidably connected to both ends of the nut plate, thereby guiding the nut plate sliding on the feeding plate 31 and preventing the nut plate from deviating during the sliding process. In addition, as shown in 4, a limiting protrusion 35 with both ends fixed to the guide protrusion 34 is fixedly installed on the end of the feeding plate 31 away from the storage sleeve 32. The design of the limiting protrusion 35 can prevent the nut plate from sliding out of the feeding plate 31, so that the nut plate is fixedly placed on the feeding plate 31, making it convenient for workers to pick up and install.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, the feeding plate 31 and the storage sleeve 32 are inclined, and the highest point of the feeding plate 31 is fixedly connected to the storage sleeve 32. Therefore, this inclined arrangement can increase the sliding speed of the nut plate inside the feeding plate 31 and the storage sleeve 32, thereby increasing the feeding efficiency of the nut plate. Furthermore, as... Figure 4 As shown, the cross-section of the limiting protrusion 35 is a right-angled triangle, and the hypotenuse is fixed to the feeding plate 31 at an angle. This setting reduces the impact force between the nut plate and the limiting protrusion 35, reduces the probability of the nut plate being damaged during transportation, and achieves the effect of protecting the nut plate.

[0024] This embodiment provides a positioning and clamping device, such as Figure 5 As shown, the mounting base 41 is fixedly mounted on the base 1 and rotatably connected to the rotating disk 2. A support frame 42 is also fixedly mounted on the mounting base 41. A support member 43 is provided on the support frame 42, and a clamping member 44 for clamping the nut plate is provided at the tail end of the support member 43 away from the support frame 42. Figure 6 As shown, the support frame 42 is also provided with a drive member 45 for driving the movement of the gripper 44.

[0025] Therefore, in use, the clamping member 44 can be driven by the driving member 45 to approach the nut plate at the tail end of the feeding plate 31, and then the nut plate can be clamped by the clamping member 44. Finally, the nut plate can be controlled by the driving member 45 to move to the designated position to complete the installation of the nut plate.

[0026] like Figure 6 As shown, support beams 431 are fixedly installed in the two support frames 42. Support connecting rods 432 are rotatably installed at the end of the support beams 431 away from the support frames 42. One end of the support connecting rods 432 is rotatably connected to the clamping member 44. At the same time, stable connecting rods 433 are provided on both sides of the support beams 431, which are rotatably connected to the support frames 42 and the support connecting rods 432. Therefore, when clamping the nut plate, the nut plate can be supported by the support member 43, which can share the load borne by the driving member 45 and make the movement of the driving member 45 more flexible.

[0027] like Figure 7 As shown, a gripping frame 441 is fixedly installed at one end of the support link 432. A gripping plate 442 is rotatably installed on the gripping frame 441. A first gripper 443 and a second gripper 444 are rotatably installed on the gripping plate 442, and a gripping arc rod 446 is fixedly installed on the first gripper 443. In addition, a gripping motor 447 is fixedly installed on the gripping plate 442. A transmission plate 448 is fixedly installed at the output end of the gripping motor 447. The transmission plate 448 and the gripping arc rod 446 are connected. A clamping link 449 for transmission connection is rotatably installed between the rods 446. Therefore, when clamping the nut plate, the transmission plate 448 can be rotated by controlling the clamping motor 447. The transmission plate 448 drives the clamping arc rod 446 to move synchronously through the clamping link 449. Since the clamping arc rod 446 is fixedly connected to the first jaw 443, it will drive the first jaw 443 to move, realizing the opening and closing of the first jaw 443 and the second jaw 444, and completing the clamping work of the nut plate.

[0028] like Figure 7 As shown, an adjusting motor 445 is fixedly installed on the clamping frame 441 and is coaxially fixed with the clamping plate 442. Therefore, during use, the clamping plate 442 can be rotated by adjusting the motor 445 to realize the change of the clamping direction of the first clamping jaw 443 and the second clamping jaw 444.

[0029] like Figure 6As shown, a drive motor 451 is fixedly mounted on the support frame 42. The output end of the drive motor 451 is coaxially fixed with a first drive link 452 that is rotatably connected to the support frame 42. One end of the first drive link 452 is hinged to a second drive link 453, and one end of the second drive link 453 is rotatably mounted with a third drive link 454 that is hinged to the clamping frame 441. Therefore, when the drive motor 451 is running, the first drive link 452 can be controlled to rotate. The first drive link 452 controls the clamping member 44 to move in the set space through the cooperation of the second drive link 453 and the third drive link 454, thus completing the operation of clamping the nut plate.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the methods and devices described in detail above are merely embodiments, and those skilled in the art can modify these embodiments in different ways as long as they do not depart from the scope of this utility model.
