Detailed Implementation
[0014] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort in accordance with the embodiments of the basic utility model are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0015] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3A semi-automatic dual-station adjustable garden support capping device includes a workbench 1, on one side of which a fixed platform 6 is provided and on the other side a movable platform 5 is slidably provided. The fixed platform 6 and the movable platform 5 are respectively provided with a clamping mechanism 3 and a cap-pushing mechanism 4 for adaptive clamping and limiting of plastic-coated steel pipes of different specifications. The clamping mechanism 3 and the cap-pushing mechanism 4 are symmetrically distributed. The fixed platform 6 and the movable platform 5 are respectively slidably provided with guide blocks 7. The guide blocks 7 are rotatably provided with end cap seats 8. The outer periphery of the end cap seats 8 is provided with multiple end cap receiving grooves 9 of different diameters for loading end caps. The cap-pushing mechanism 4 is connected to the guide blocks 7 to drive the guide blocks 7 to fit the end caps in the end cap receiving grooves 9 onto the outer end of the plastic-coated steel pipe opening.
[0016] During operation, the push cap mechanism 4 drives the guide block 7 to move, accurately fitting the pre-stored end cap in the end cap receiving groove 9 onto the opening of the plastic-coated steel pipe positioned by the clamping mechanism 3. Through the alternating operation of the dual workstations and the quick-change design of the end cap seat 8, it can adapt to the end cap assembly needs of various specifications (length, diameter) of plastic-coated steel pipes.
[0017] In a specific embodiment, the clamping mechanism 3 includes a bearing support 302, a clamping cylinder 301 mounted on the bearing support 302, an upper clamping block 303, and a lower clamping block 304 corresponding to the upper clamping block 303. The output end of the clamping cylinder 301 is connected to the upper clamping block 303 to drive the upper clamping block 303 to move and engage with the lower clamping block 304, thereby positioning and clamping the plastic-coated steel pipe. V-grooves are provided on the corresponding surfaces of the upper clamping block 303 and the lower clamping block 304 to further facilitate the clamping and positioning of the plastic-coated steel pipe by the upper clamping block 303 and the lower clamping block 304.
[0018] In a specific embodiment, in order to prevent the middle part of the plastic-coated steel pipe from sagging due to gravity, at least one movable V-shaped support mechanism 2 for supporting the plastic-coated steel pipe is slidably installed on the workbench 1, and the movable V-shaped support mechanism 2 is arranged between the fixed platform 6 and the movable platform 5. This design can adapt to plastic-coated steel pipes of different lengths and effectively improve the support stability of various plastic-coated steel pipes.
[0019] In a further embodiment, the movable V-shaped support mechanism 2 includes a slider 202 and a support plate 201 vertically disposed on the slider 202. The support plate 201 has a V-shaped opening 203 at its top, into which the plastic-coated steel pipe can be directly placed. Stable load-bearing is achieved through the limiting characteristics of the V-shaped structure. This structural design ensures a basic sliding fit between the support and the worktable 1, and through the vertical placement of the support plate 201 and the design of the V-shaped opening 203, forms a highly efficient support structure for the plastic-coated steel pipe.
[0020] In a further embodiment, the sliding direction of the guide block 7 is on the same straight line as the sliding direction of the movable V-shaped support mechanism 2. While the movable V-shaped support mechanism 2 supports the plastic-coated steel pipe, the movable guide block 7 can be adapted to plastic-coated steel pipes of different lengths to achieve the fitting of end caps.
[0021] In a specific embodiment, two sets of pressing mechanisms 3 and a push-cap mechanism 4 are provided on the fixed platform 6 and the movable platform 5 to realize four-station operation, thereby improving production efficiency.
