Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipe clamp production equipment technology, and more specifically, to an automatic packing fixture for a pipe clamp machine. Background Technology

[0002] like Figure 1 As shown, in the prior art, pipe clamp 101 is a connector for fixing pipes. Pipe clamp 101 is usually a clamp composed of two semi-rings. Pipe clamp 101 is assembled into a ring for packaging. Since pipe clamp 101 includes a hinge end 102 and a connecting end 103, pipe clamp 101 needs to be rotated when it is packed by an automatic packing machine so that the hinge end 102 and the connecting end 103 of pipe clamp 101 are located in the gap between pipe clamp 101. Currently, the automatic packing machine for pipe clamps uses a rotary cylinder to rotate the clamping cylinder. However, due to the structural defects of the rotary cylinder itself: the seal of the rotary cylinder must not only isolate compressed air leakage, but also adapt to the compound motion of "rotation + reciprocating swing". The seal needs to withstand continuous friction and deformation. The damage rate of the rotary cylinder is very high due to high frequency and long-term use, and maintenance is very frequent. Therefore, a technical solution is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and to provide an automatic box-packing fixture for a pipe clamping machine by adopting a structure of linear cylinder and connecting rod transmission.

[0006] Furthermore, the first gripper assembly includes a first connecting plate, the slider includes a first connecting post, the first connecting plate is rotatably mounted on the lower end of the first connecting post, the gripper cylinder of the first gripper assembly is fixedly mounted on the first connecting plate, and the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod are rotatably connected to the first connecting plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the first connecting plate includes a first connecting end and a second connecting end, the first connecting end being connected to the first connecting rod, and the second connecting end being connected to the second connecting rod, with the first connecting end and the second connecting end respectively located in the extension direction of the slide rail.

[0008] Furthermore, the second gripper assembly includes a second connecting plate, the top plate includes a second connecting post, the second connecting plate is rotatably mounted on the lower end of the second connecting post, the gripper cylinder of the second gripper assembly is fixedly mounted on the second connecting plate, and the second connecting plate is rotatably connected to the second connecting rod.

[0009] Furthermore, the second connecting plate includes a third connecting end, which is connected to the second connecting rod, and the orientation of the third connecting end is perpendicular to the extension direction of the slide rail.

[0022] The technical solutions in this embodiment 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, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0023] like Figures 2-6 As shown in the figure, this embodiment discloses an automatic box-packing fixture for a pipe clamping machine, including a top plate 1, a telescopic cylinder 2, a first gripper assembly, and a second gripper assembly. The top plate 1 includes a slide rail 11 and a fixed column 12. The slide rail 11 is located on the lower end face of the top plate 1, and the telescopic cylinder 2 is installed on the lower end face of the top plate 1. The extension direction of the slide rail 11 is the same as the extension direction of the telescopic cylinder 2.

[0024] The first gripper assembly includes a gripper cylinder 3, a first connecting plate 4, and a slider 5. The slider 5 is slidably connected to the slide rail 11. A telescopic cylinder 2 is connected to the slider 5 and can drive the slider 5 to slide along the slide rail 11. The gripper cylinder 3 of the first gripper assembly is rotatably mounted on the slider 5. The slider 5 includes a first connecting post 51. The first connecting plate 4 is rotatably mounted on the lower end of the first connecting post 51 through a bearing. The gripper cylinder 3 of the first gripper assembly is fixedly mounted on the lower end face of the first connecting plate 4. The lower end of the gripper cylinder 3 is provided with two clamping plates 31 that can move closer or further away from each other. When the two clamping plates 31 are closed, they can clamp the pipe clamp 101. The telescopic cylinder 2 can drive the gripper cylinder 3 of the first gripper assembly to move closer or further away from the gripper cylinder 3 of the second gripper assembly.

[0025] The fixed column 12 is fixedly installed on the top plate 1. The fixed column 12 is connected to the gripper cylinder 3 of the first gripper assembly through the first connecting rod 7. The lower end of the fixed column 12 is rotatably connected to one end of the first connecting rod 7, and the other end of the first connecting rod 7 is rotatably connected to the first connecting plate 4. The first connecting plate 4 includes a first connecting end 41 and a second connecting end 42. The first connecting end 41 is connected to the first connecting rod 7. When the telescopic cylinder 2 can drive the slider 5 to move, the first connecting plate 4 will rotate due to the presence of the first connecting rod 7. When the telescopic cylinder 2 retracts, it can drive the first connecting rod 7 to rotate 45°. The gripper cylinder 3 of the first gripper assembly can also rotate 45° synchronously. The position of the hinge end 102 and the connecting end 103 of the assembled pipe clamp 101 is parallel to the length direction of the box. It needs to be rotated 45° to be placed in the box so that it is in the gap between the two pipe clamps 101.

[0026] The top plate 1 includes a second connecting column 13, and a second gripper assembly is rotatably mounted on the top plate 1. The second gripper assembly includes a second connecting plate 6, which is rotatably mounted on the lower end of the second connecting column 13 via a bearing. The gripper cylinder 3 of the second gripper assembly is fixedly mounted on the lower end face of the second connecting plate 6. The second connecting plate 6 is rotatably connected to the second connecting rod 8. The rotation of the first gripper assembly can drive the second gripper assembly to rotate.

[0027] One end of the second connecting rod 8 is rotatably connected to the first connecting plate 4. The second connecting end 42 is connected to the second connecting rod 8. The second connecting plate 6 includes a third connecting end 61, which is rotatably connected to the second connecting rod 8. The first connecting end 41 and the second connecting end 42 are respectively located in the extension direction of the slide rail 11. The first connecting end 41 and the second connecting end 42 are respectively located in the middle of the two opposite sides of the first connecting plate 4. The orientation of the third connecting end 61 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the slide rail 11. That is, the second connecting end 42 is located in the length direction of the first connecting plate 4 and the third connecting end 61 is located in the width direction of the second connecting plate 6. The second connecting rod 8 is located above the first connecting plate 4 and the second connecting plate 6. The second connecting rod 8 will not interfere with the rotation of the two gripper cylinders 3. When the first connecting plate 4 rotates, it will drive the second connecting plate 6 to rotate synchronously.

[0028] The gripper cylinder 3 of the first gripper assembly and the gripper cylinder 3 of the second gripper assembly are at the same height. In actual production, the two assembled pipe clamps 101 are clamped by the two descending gripper cylinders 3. During the transfer into the box, the two pipe clamps 101 approach each other and rotate at 45°. The two adjacent pipe clamps 101 can be placed side by side into the box. This device uses only one linearly moving cylinder to drive the two gripper cylinders 3 to move, and can simultaneously approach and rotate, making the structure more durable and reliable.

[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
