Detailed Implementation

[0021] Example 1, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 This is a schematic diagram of a 4.5-axis CNC machining clamping mechanism and CNC equipment provided by this utility model. The 4.5-axis CNC machining clamping mechanism includes a positioning base 10, a clamping component 20 disposed on the positioning base 10, a mounting base 30, etc. It is conceivable that this 4.5-axis CNC machining clamping mechanism also includes other functional components and specific structures, such as electrical connection components, mounting structures, etc., which are all technologies known to those skilled in the art, and therefore will not be described in detail here.

[0022] In this embodiment, the positioning base 10 includes a positioning carrier plate 11 disposed at the upper end and a positioning base plate 12 connected to the bottom of the positioning carrier plate 11. The positioning carrier plate 11 and the positioning base plate 12 are detachably connected by a threaded connection or a snap-fit ​​connection, facilitating the replacement of the positioning carrier plate 11 and the positioning settings for different products. Specifically, the positioning carrier plate 11 is in direct contact with the product and is made of aluminum AL6061 with a black anodized surface, making it easy to observe foreign objects and remove them from the carrier plate surface. The positioning base plate 12 is made of steel P20, increasing the overall rigidity of the equipment and preventing deformation of the carrier plate under stress. When the positioning carrier plate 11 and the positioning base plate 12 are connected, a vacuum chamber 16 is formed in the middle. The positioning carrier plate 11 has a vacuum suction hole 17 connected to the vacuum chamber 16, forming an adsorption platform 13 protruding from the upper surface, which forms a Z-axis positioning at the bottom of the product. The vacuum chamber 16 is connected to an external cylinder through a vacuum pipe connector to provide adsorption power to the adsorption platform 13, and is connected to a machine vacuum negative pressure gauge to monitor the vacuum negative pressure value of the equipment. The adsorption platform 13 is provided with an adsorption groove 171 that connects to the upper end of at least two vacuum suction holes 17. The adsorption groove 171 can locally increase the adsorption area of ​​the product and improve the adsorption stability.

[0023] Optimally, a recessed annular groove 18 is provided at the upper end of the adsorption platform 13 near its edge. The size of the product is close to the size of the adsorption platform 13, but slightly larger. When the product processing is completed, the bottom adsorption of the product needs to be stopped first. Furthermore, when manually or with an industrial robotic arm, the structure of the annular groove 18 facilitates the release of pressure at the annular edge after the product is partially lifted, improving the smoothness of material handling. Additionally, recessed pick-and-place notches 111 are provided on both sides of the positioning seat 10, allowing the product to partially protrude beyond the pick-and-place notches 111 when placed on the adsorption platform 13, facilitating the insertion of fingers or clamping fixtures during material handling.

[0024] In this embodiment, the positioning seat 10 has a product positioning baffle 14 on one edge near the adsorption platform 13, and external product positioning pins 15 on the other three edges of the positioning seat 10 that are near the adsorption platform 13 and away from the positioning baffle. When positioning the product, one side of the product is first placed against the product positioning baffle 14 as a positioning reference, and then gradually adjusted to fall into the range of the external product positioning pins 15. The product positioning baffle 14 and the external product positioning pins 15 are used to position the product in the horizontal circumferential direction. ABS plastic protection is added to the surface of the product positioning baffle 14, and the external product positioning pins 15 are made of ABS plastic to prevent damage to the product when picking it up or putting it down.

[0025] In this embodiment, the clamping assembly 20 has multiple sets, which are distributed on the four sides of the positioning seat 10 or on the three outer walls near the outer positioning pin 15 of the product according to the material picking and placing method. This allows the product positioning barrier 14 side to be used as the manual picking point when picking up materials, reducing interference between picking up materials and clamping assembly 20 and preventing damage to the product when picking up or placing the product.

[0026] Specifically, the clamping assembly 20 includes several spaced-apart protrusions 21 extending outwards from the circumference of the positioning base 10. Each protrusion 21 is an independent block structure. A mounting groove 19 is provided at the bottom of the positioning base plate 12 for the protrusions 21 to be embedded in, ensuring accurate installation. The protrusions 21 provide outwardly protruding hinge points for the positioning base 10, facilitating replacement and adjustment of the clamping assembly 20. A rotating block 22 is hinged to each protrusion 21. The rotating block 22 is connected to the protrusion 21 via a pivot. The rotating block 22 has a frame structure, improving rotational stability. A pressure claw 23 is provided at the upper end of the rotating block 22, capable of rotatably pressing against the upper edge of the adsorption platform 13. The pressure claw 23 is arc-shaped or L-shaped, reducing the rotation angle of the rotating block 22. The outer side of the pressure claw 23 is covered with soft rubber to prevent collision damage. A rotary driver 24, which drives the rotating block 22, is provided at the bottom of the positioning base 10. The rotary driver 24 is a cylinder connected to the end of the rotating block 22 away from the pressure claw 23, driving the rotating block 22 to rotate the pressure claw 23. The rotary driver 24 is located at the bottom of the extension protrusion 21. The compact structure facilitates the assembly and adjustment of the clamping assembly 20 and helps maintain consistency among multiple clamping assemblies 20. The clamping assembly 20 uses levers to mount most of the structure on the side and bottom of the positioning base 10, improving space utilization, freeing up the space occupied at the top of the positioning base 10, and meeting the multi-angle processing requirements of new products.

[0027] In this embodiment, a protruding pressure claw insert 25 is provided at the end of the pressure claw portion 23 away from the rotating block 22. The contact end of the pressure claw insert 25 is a narrow end that is close to the same width as the pressure claw portion 23, maintaining the pressure width between the pressure claw insert 25 and the product while reducing the pressure contact area. The pressure claw insert 25 is made of wear-resistant PEEK material to press the product firmly and prevent it from loosening during processing. The pressure claw insert 25 is fastened to the pressure claw portion 23 by threads, and the detachable connection method facilitates the replacement of pressure claw inserts 25 for different product pressure contact methods.

[0028] In this embodiment, the bottom of the positioning seat 10 is provided with a mounting seat 30, which is used to connect to the machine tool. Specifically, the mounting seat 30 includes a flange 31 for connecting to a 4.5-axis machine tool. The 4.5-axis machine tool is a commercially available part and will not be described in detail here. A concentric shaft 32 is embedded in the center of the flange 31 to keep the equipment and the machine tool coaxial. The bottom of the positioning seat 10 and the flange 31 are connected by equal-height blocks 33 that are spaced apart. The equal-height blocks 33 are reserved with height to raise the equipment body in conjunction with the machine tool, so that the machine tool's cutting tools can process the product.

[0029] It should be noted that the cylinder, motor, and sensor involved in this utility model are all commercially available parts and are existing technologies, which will not be described in detail here.

[0030] Example 2: This utility model also provides a CNC equipment with a 4.5-axis CNC machining clamping mechanism as described above. Except for the 4.5-axis CNC machining clamping mechanism, the other components are all prior art or commercially available parts. Their specific structures will not be described in detail here.

[0031] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative examples illustrating the spirit of this utility model. Those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to substitute them, without departing from the spirit of this utility model or exceeding the scope defined by the appended claims.
