Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metal briquetting processing, and in particular to a multi-specification metal briquetting tool. Background Technology
[0002] Metal briquetting processing inspection refers to the process of quality inspection and performance testing of metal briquetting products during and after processing. It mainly includes comprehensive testing of the briquetting's appearance quality (surface cracks, porosity, inclusions, burrs, etc.), dimensional accuracy (geometric parameters such as length, width, height, flatness, and parallelism), physical properties (mechanical indicators such as density, hardness, strength, and compactness), internal structure (inspecting internal defects using non-destructive testing methods such as ultrasound and X-rays), and chemical composition (material purity, alloy ratio, etc.). This inspection typically employs specialized testing equipment and instruments such as vision inspection systems, coordinate measuring machines, hardness testers, density testers, spectrometers, and ultrasonic flaw detectors. By combining manual and automated inspection methods, it ensures that metal briquetting products meet design requirements and industry standards, preventing unqualified products from entering subsequent processing or use stages. This is crucial for ensuring product quality, improving production efficiency, reducing material waste, and ensuring safe use, making it an indispensable quality control link in the metal briquetting production line.
[0003] Currently, most pressure testing equipment used for metal blocks employs specially designed fixtures to hold the metal blocks in place, such as a fixture with a groove. This groove is used to place and limit the metal block. When the size of the metal block to be marked changes, the fixture must be replaced to fix the metal block. This method not only requires the prefabrication of a large number of fixtures, increasing the cost of use, but also requires custom-made fixtures when the size of the metal block does not match the size of the prefabricated fixtures. This further increases the cost of use and takes a long time to customize, which can affect production efficiency in a cost-conscious factory.
[0004] Therefore, a multi-specification metal briquetting tool is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a multi-specification metal briquetting fixture, which has the advantages of being able to adapt to metal briquetting of various specifications and to test their load-bearing capacity.
[0006] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] A multi-specification metal briquetting fixture includes a support base;
[0008] A metal pressure block fixture is assembled on the upper end face of the support.
[0009] The metal pressing tool includes a connecting plate disposed on one side of the support seat, the connecting plate being arranged horizontally and perpendicular to the support seat;
[0010] The connecting plate is equipped with a number of positioning rods in a linear array on one side. Each of the positioning rods is fitted with a disc spring. The upper ends of the disc springs are all fitted with a positioning plate, which is penetrated by the positioning rods. The positioning plate is equipped with two side limiting plates on one side, and the two side limiting plates are arranged in parallel.
[0011] Several metal pressure block spacers are assembled in a linear array between two adjacent side limiting plates.
[0012] Furthermore, each of the aforementioned positioning rods is equipped with a limiting plate at one end, and one side of the limiting plate abuts against the positioning plate.
[0013] Furthermore, a gap is formed between two adjacent metal pressure block spacers.
[0014] Furthermore, the upper surface of the positioning plate is provided with a plurality of suction nozzles, which are sequentially arranged between the two metal pressure block spacers.
[0015] Furthermore, a vacuum generator is configured at the bottom of the positioning plate, and the vacuum generator is connected to the suction nozzle through a conduit.
[0016] Furthermore, several positioning studs are installed at the bottom of the support.
[0017] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] 1. This multi-specification metal pressure block fixture features metal pressure blocks mounted on the upper surface of a support base. A connecting plate, horizontal and perpendicular to the support base, is used. Positioning rods are mounted in a linear array, and disc springs are externally fitted, with positioning plates mounted on the upper ends of the disc springs. This forms an elastic positioning structure. A limiting plate is mounted at one end of the positioning rod, abutting against the positioning plate to restrict the rod's range of motion, achieving stable and accurate positioning. Two parallel side limiting plates mounted on one side of the positioning plate, along with several metal pressure block spacers arranged in a linear array between them, effectively distinguish different specifications of metal pressure blocks through spacing design, ensuring the standardized distribution and orderly arrangement of the pressure blocks, and improving the fixture's versatility and compatibility.
[0019] 2. This fixture features several suction nozzles on the upper surface of the positioning plate, connected to a vacuum generator at the bottom. This allows for automated gripping of metal blocks using vacuum adsorption during clamping and fixing, improving operational reliability and efficiency. Several positioning studs installed at the bottom of the support base ensure stable installation and easy disassembly. The overall structure is compact, balancing flexibility and stability, meeting the positioning, arrangement, and fixing requirements of metal blocks of various sizes while improving clamping accuracy and production efficiency. It possesses significant industrial application value and promotion potential. Attached Figure Description

[0026] First embodiment;
[0027] Reference Figure 1-3 As shown, this is a multi-specification metal pressing block tooling in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, including a support base 1;
[0028] A metal pressure block fixture 2 is assembled on the upper end face of the support 1;
[0029] The metal pressing tool 2 includes a connecting plate 21 disposed on one side of the support 1. The connecting plate 21 is arranged horizontally and perpendicular to the support 1.
[0030] A number of positioning rods 22 are arranged in a linear array on one side of the connecting plate 21. Each of the positioning rods 22 is fitted with a disc spring 23. The upper ends of the disc springs 23 are fitted with a positioning plate 24, which is penetrated by the positioning rods 22. Two side limiting plates 25 are fitted on one side of the positioning plate 24, and the two side limiting plates 25 are arranged in parallel.
[0031] Several metal pressure block spacers 26 are assembled in a linear array between two adjacent side limiting plates 25.
[0032] In this embodiment, a metal pressure block fixture 2 is assembled on the upper surface of the support 1. The metal pressure block fixture 2 includes a connecting plate 21 disposed on one side of the support 1. The connecting plate 21 is arranged laterally and perpendicular to the support 1. A plurality of positioning rods 22 are arranged in a linear array on one side of the connecting plate 21. Each of the positioning rods 22 is fitted with a disc spring 23. The upper ends of the disc springs 23 are all fitted with a positioning plate 24, and the positioning plate 24 is penetrated by the positioning rods 22. Two side limiting plates 25 are assembled on one side of the positioning plate 24, and the two side limiting plates 25 are arranged in a linear array. The parallel arrangement of the side limiting plates 25 and the linear array of several metal pressure block spacers 26 enables flexible positioning and support of metal pressure blocks of different specifications. The disc springs 23 provide elastic support and buffering. The positioning plates 24 and the positioning rods 22 work together to form a stable lifting guide mechanism. The side limiting plates 25 and the metal pressure block spacers 26 together constitute a multi-station separation positioning system, which can simultaneously accommodate and fix multiple metal pressure block workpieces of different specifications, adapting to the needs of multi-specification batch processing and testing.
[0033] Second embodiment;
[0034] Reference Figure 1-3 As shown, each of the positioning rods 22 is equipped with a limiting plate 221 at one end, and one side of the limiting plate 221 abuts against the positioning plate 24.
[0035] In this embodiment, each of the positioning rods 22 is equipped with a limiting plate 221 at one end, and one side of the limiting plate 221 abuts against the positioning plate 24. This design allows the limiting plate 221 to precisely limit the downward position of the positioning plate 24, preventing the positioning plate 24 from exceeding the set stroke range during the compression of the disc spring 23. This ensures that the positioning plate 24 has a stable lowest position when carrying the metal pressure block workpiece. At the same time, the contact surface between the limiting plate 221 and the positioning plate 24 can evenly distribute the load, preventing the positioning rods 22 from deforming or being damaged due to excessive force at a single point. This improves the overall load-bearing stability and service life of the tooling, and ensures the consistency of the positioning height and repeatability of metal pressure blocks of different specifications on the positioning plate 24.
[0036] Third embodiment;
[0037] Reference Figure 2-3 As shown, a gap is formed between two adjacent metal pressure block spacers 26.
[0038] In this embodiment, a gap is formed between two adjacent metal pressure block spacers 26. This gap provides independent placement space for metal pressure block workpieces of different specifications, so that each metal pressure block does not interfere with each other during processing and inspection, avoiding collisions, friction or positional displacement between adjacent workpieces. At the same time, the existence of the gap facilitates the operation of operators or automated equipment to grasp, place and remove individual metal pressure blocks, improving loading and unloading efficiency and operational flexibility. In addition, the gap also provides clear workpiece boundary recognition features for vision inspection systems or measuring equipment, which is conducive to achieving precise positioning and independent inspection of each metal pressure block, ensuring the accuracy and traceability of inspection results.
[0039] Fourth embodiment;
[0040] Reference Figure 2-3 As shown, the upper surface of the positioning plate 24 is provided with a number of suction nozzles 241, which are arranged sequentially between the two metal pressure block spacers 26.
[0041] In this embodiment, a plurality of suction nozzles 241 are provided on the upper surface of the positioning plate 24. The plurality of suction nozzles 241 are arranged sequentially between two metal pressure block spacers 26. This configuration ensures that each metal pressure block workpiece placement area is equipped with a corresponding suction nozzle 241. The negative pressure adsorption effect generated by the suction nozzles 241 can firmly adsorb and fix the metal pressure block workpiece on the surface of the positioning plate 24, effectively preventing the metal pressure block from shifting or slipping due to vibration, impact or tilt during processing and inspection. This significantly improves the reliability and stability of workpiece positioning, and is particularly suitable for precision processing and inspection or high-speed automated production line scenarios. At the same time, the arrangement of the suction nozzles 241 sequentially between the metal pressure block spacers 26 ensures that each station has an independent adsorption and fixing function, realizing synchronous fixing and rapid release of multiple stations, and improving the automation level and production efficiency of the overall tooling.
[0042] Fifth embodiment;
[0043] Reference Figure 2-3 As shown, a vacuum generator is installed at the bottom of the positioning plate 24, and the vacuum generator is connected to the suction nozzle 241 through a conduit.
[0044] In this embodiment, a vacuum generator is configured at the bottom of the positioning plate 24. The vacuum generator is connected to the suction nozzle 241 through a conduit. This vacuum adsorption system configuration provides a stable and controllable negative pressure source for the suction nozzle 241. The vacuum generator can continuously generate vacuum negative pressure and deliver it to each suction nozzle 241 through the conduit, realizing the synchronous adsorption, fixing or release operation of metal blocks at all workstations. Compared with the traditional mechanical clamping method, the vacuum adsorption system has the advantages of fast response speed, uniform clamping force distribution, no damage to the workpiece surface, and high degree of automation. It is particularly suitable for metal block products with high surface quality requirements. By controlling the start and stop of the vacuum generator, the rapid loading and unloading of metal blocks can be easily realized, which greatly shortens the auxiliary time and improves the production cycle. At the same time, the vacuum system has a simple structure, is easy to maintain, and is reliable in operation, reducing the use cost and failure rate of tooling.
[0045] Sixth embodiment;
[0046] Reference Figure 2-3 As shown, several positioning studs 11 are installed at the bottom of the support 1.
[0047] In this embodiment, several positioning studs 11 are installed at the bottom of the support 1. This design allows the entire metal clamping tooling to precisely engage with the positioning holes on the worktable or testing platform of the processing equipment via the positioning studs 11, achieving rapid positioning and reliable fixation of the tooling. The positioning studs 11 ensure that the tooling has a unique correct position during installation, eliminating manual positioning errors and improving the repeatability of tooling installation. This is particularly important for multi-variety production or regular maintenance scenarios that require frequent tooling changes. At the same time, the engagement between the positioning studs 11 and the positioning holes on the worktable can withstand the horizontal force and torque during processing and testing, preventing displacement or rotation of the tooling during use, and ensuring the stability and accuracy of processing and testing. In addition, through the standardized positioning stud 11 interface design, the tooling also has good versatility and interchangeability, facilitating rapid transfer and use between different equipment or production lines.
[0048] Specific implementation process
[0049] Step 1: First, the multi-specification metal pressure block fixture is fixedly installed on the processing equipment or workbench using several positioning studs 11 installed at the bottom of the support base 1, ensuring the stability and reliability of the support base 1. The metal pressure block fixture 2 is assembled horizontally and perpendicularly to the support base 1 via a connecting plate 21. Several positioning rods 22 are arranged in a linear array on one side of the connecting plate 21, and disc springs 23 are sleeved on the outside. The upper ends of the disc springs 23 are all fitted with a positioning plate 24, which is penetrated by the positioning rods 22. Each of the positioning rods 22 is fitted with a limiting plate 221, and one side of the limiting plate 221 abuts against the positioning plate 24, forming a floating positioning mechanism with elastic buffering function. The positioning plate 24 is equipped with two side limiting plates 25 on one side, and the two side limiting plates 25 are arranged in parallel. Several metal pressure block spacers 26 are arranged in a linear array between two adjacent side limiting plates 25, and a gap is formed between two adjacent metal pressure block spacers 26. By adjusting the number and position of the metal pressure block spacers 26, it can adapt to metal pressure block workpieces of different specifications and sizes.
[0050] Step 2: The operator or automatic feeding mechanism places the metal press workpieces to be processed sequentially into the slots formed between two adjacent metal press partition plates 26. Two side limiting plates 25 limit the workpieces in the left and right directions, and the metal press partition plates 26 position the workpieces in the front and back directions at intervals, ensuring that multiple workpieces are arranged neatly and do not interfere with each other. Several suction nozzles 241 are opened on the upper surface of the positioning plate 24, and the suction nozzles 241 are sequentially arranged between two metal press partition plates 26. After the workpiece is placed in place, the vacuum generator configured at the bottom of the positioning plate 24 is activated. The vacuum generator is connected to the suction nozzles 241 through a conduit, generating negative pressure suction to firmly adsorb the metal press workpieces onto the surface of the positioning plate 24, preventing the workpieces from shifting or falling off due to vibration, impact or movement during processing, and achieving stable and reliable vacuum adsorption positioning. At this time, the disc spring 23, in cooperation with the positioning rod 22 and the limiting plate 221, provides an upward elastic support force for the positioning plate 24, so that the positioning plate 24 can automatically adjust its height position according to the workpiece thickness and processing pressure. At the same time, the disc spring 23 absorbs the impact vibration during the processing through its buffering effect, protecting the workpiece and tooling from damage.
[0051] Step 3: During the pressing, punching, milling, or other processing operations on the workpiece using metal briquetting equipment such as presses, punches, and milling machines, the metal briquetting fixture 2 maintains the precise positioning of the workpiece through the combined action of the side limiting plate 25, the metal briquetting spacer 26, and the suction nozzle 241. The elastic buffering characteristics of the disc spring 23 effectively absorb the processing impact force, preventing workpiece deformation or fixture damage caused by rigid positioning. After processing is completed, the vacuum generator is turned off to stop the negative pressure suction, and the suction nozzle 241 releases the suction force on the workpiece, allowing the operator or automatic unloading mechanism to easily remove the processed metal briquetting workpiece. If it is necessary to process metal briquetting of different specifications and sizes, only the number, position, and spacing of the metal briquetting spacer 26 need to be adjusted or replaced to quickly adapt to the positioning requirements of the new specifications of the workpiece, without the need to replace the entire fixture, greatly improving the versatility of the fixture and the changeover efficiency of the production line. The entire process enables rapid clamping and positioning, stable processing, and convenient unloading of metal blocks of various specifications, effectively improving the precision, efficiency, and flexible production capabilities of metal block processing.
