[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model provides a clamping device. The clamping device is used to fix the bottom bracket 1 and the middle tube 2. The clamping device includes: a bracket 3, a support platform 4, a bottom bracket clamping mechanism, a middle tube clamping mechanism, and a pressing mechanism.

[0028] Specifically, the support platform 4 is rotatably mounted on the bracket 3, and the bottom bracket clamping mechanism is located at one end of the support platform 4. The bottom bracket clamping mechanism is used to clamp the bottom bracket pipe 1, and the middle pipe clamping mechanism is slidably mounted at the other end of the bracket 3. The middle pipe clamping mechanism can move towards the bottom bracket clamping mechanism to press the middle pipe 2 against the bottom bracket pipe 1. The clamping mechanism includes a mounting frame 5 and two clamping components. The two clamping components are respectively located at both ends of the mounting frame 5. The mounting frame 5 is fixed to the support platform 4, and the two clamping components can press the two sides of the middle pipe clamping mechanism against the support platform 4. Compared with the prior art, this clamping device, by setting a sliding middle pipe clamping mechanism, can be applied to the middle pipe 2 and bottom bracket pipe 1 of different vehicle types. At the same time, using the clamping mechanism to fix the middle pipe clamping mechanism can avoid disassembling and assembling screws, save time, and improve welding efficiency.

[0029] Optionally, the clamping assembly includes a first driving member 6, a pressure claw 7, and a wedge block 8. The pressure claw 7 is rotatably connected to the mounting bracket 5, and the first driving member 6 is driveably connected to the wedge block 8. The first driving member 6 can drive the wedge block 8 to abut against the bottom wall of one end of the pressure claw 7, so that the other end of the pressure claw 7 presses against the tube clamping mechanism. Specifically, the first driving member 6 is a rotary handle, which is threadedly connected to the mounting bracket 5 and rotatably connected to the wedge block 8. By rotating the handle, the wedge-shaped surface of the wedge block 8 can be pushed to lift one end of the pressure claw 7, so that the other end of the pressure claw 7 presses down against the tube clamping mechanism, thereby allowing the tube clamping mechanism to move or be fixed as a whole, reducing screw operations.

[0030] Optionally, the clamping assembly also includes a roller 9, which is rotatably connected to one end of the pressure claw 7. The first driving member 6 can drive the wedge-shaped surface of the wedge block 8 to abut against the roller 9. This arrangement can reduce the friction between the wedge block 8 and the pressure claw 7.

[0031] Optionally, the bottom bracket clamping mechanism includes a push rod 10, a second driving member 11, a rotating pressure block 12, and a fixed base 13. The fixed base 13 is fixed to the support platform 4, the bottom bracket tube 1 is sleeved on the fixed base 13, the push rod 10 is slidably disposed on the fixed base 13, the second driving member 11 is disposed on the support platform 4, and the output end of the second driving member 11 passes through the support platform 4 and the fixed base 13 in sequence and is connected to the push rod 10. The rotating pressure block 12 is rotatably connected to the fixed base 13, and the push rod 10 can abut against the rotating pressure block 12 so that the rotating pressure block 12 can rotate and press the bottom bracket tube 1. Specifically, the second driving member 11 is a cylinder. When the cylinder retracts, the push rod 10 can push the rotating pressure block 12 to rotate 90 degrees, thereby pressing the bottom bracket tube 1.

[0032] Furthermore, the bottom bracket clamping mechanism also includes an elastic element 14, with its two ends connected to the push rod 10 and the rotating pressure block 12, respectively. Specifically, when the cylinder pushes upward, the rotating pressure block 12 stands upright under the action of the elastic element 14, allowing the bottom bracket tube 1 to be fitted onto the fixed seat 13, thereby eliminating the need for manual clamping of the bottom bracket tube 1. Even further, the elastic element 14 is a spring.

[0033] Optionally, the middle tube clamping mechanism includes a third driving member 15, a base 16, a slider 17, and a clamping member 18. The base 16 is slidably disposed on the support platform 4, the slider 17 is slidably connected to the base 16, the clamping member 18 is disposed on the slider 17, and the third driving member 15 is disposed on the base 16 and is drively connected to the slider 17. The third driving member 15 can drive the slider 17 to move the clamping member 18 to abut against the end face of the middle tube 2. The two clamping components can press the two sides of the base 16 against the support platform 4. Further, the third driving member 15 is a cylinder.

Each support component includes a support member 20 and a locking member 21. The support member 20 is positioned on the support platform 4 or base 16 and supports the tube 2. The locking member 21 is positioned on the support platform 4 or base 16 and presses the support member 20 against the support platform 4 or base 16. Specifically, the support member 20 is a U-shaped block, with its arc-shaped surface conforming to the surface of the tube 2, improving the stability of the tube 2. Simultaneously, the locking member 21 presses the support member 20 against the support platform 4 or base 16 without requiring screw removal, thus improving efficiency.

[0036] Optionally, the clamping device further includes a positioning mechanism, which includes a positioning pin 22 and a mounting component 23. The mounting component 23 is disposed on the support platform 4, and the positioning pin 22 is slidably disposed on the mounting component 23. The middle tube 2 is provided with a positioning hole, into which the positioning pin 22 can be inserted. Specifically, the positioning mechanism also includes a miniature cylinder, which is mounted on the mounting component 23 and connected to the positioning pin 22. The miniature cylinder controls the extension and retraction of the positioning pin 22, inserting it into the positioning hole to position the position and angle of the pipe fitting, ensuring the uniqueness of the position and angle of each pipe fitting.
