[0001] MATERIAL FIXING CLAMP ON SAWING MACHINE TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The invention relates to an electric motor-controlled material fixing clamp developed for sawing machines to securely hold the material to be cut in a fixed and appropriate position on the body during cutting ensuring both high cutting quality and operator safety.

[0003] PRIOR ART

[0004] A sawing machine is a tool or machine used to cut a variety of materials and has a wide range of uses, from industrial production to carpentry. These machines are designed to cut materials such as metal, wood, plastic quickly and precisely. As a basic principle, it splits the material into two or more parts using a saw blade. Sawing machines are manufactured in various types depending on the type of material to be cut and the desired cutting shape.

[0005] Circular sawing machines are commonly used in wood and metal cutting and cut the material with a rotating circular blade. Such machines are known for their capacity to cut quickly and smoothly. Band-saw machines, on the other hand, operate with a long and thin blade moving in a continuous loop. These machines, which are common in metal and wood cutting, are especially ideal for cutting complex shapes and machining thick materials.

[0006] In smaller and more sensitive works, jigsaw machines are preferred. These machines, where a small blade moves up and down to cut, are suitable for making curved and detailed cuts on thin wood or plastic. Sliding saw machines are used in situations where large materials need to be cut quickly and efficiently. In these machines, the blade cuts manually by driving on the material and provides an advantage in long cuts.

[0007] Bench saw machines, on the other hand, have a fixed structure and are generally used in woodworking. In such machines, the material is cut by moving it against a fixed saw blade, which provides an ideal solution for cutting large and flat parts.

[0008] Sawing machines can be equipped with different types of power sources (electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic) and blades according to their intended use. The choice of the right sawing machine depends on the type of work to be done, the characteristics of the material to be cut and the desired cutting precision. These machines are indispensable tools in many fields such as wood and metalworking, construction, industry and production.

[0009] In sawing machines, clamps are the basic mechanisms used to fix the workpiece. The working principle of these mechanisms is to increase the precision and safety of the cutting process by keeping the workpiece safe and stable.

[0010] The clamps fix the workpiece by applying clamping force. In this system, which usually works using screw mechanism or piston clamping elements, the moving jaw of the clamp is moved towards the material and the workpiece is clamped. This clamping force ensures a safe cut by preventing the workpiece from slipping.

[0011] The clamp jaws can be adjusted to hold workpieces of different sizes. The angle and width of the jaws can be adjusted to suit the dimensions of the workpiece. In this way, the workpiece is securely fixed and a smooth cut is achieved.

[0012] Some types of clamps have an additional locking mechanism after the clamping process is completed. This mechanism prevents the jaws of the clamp from slipping and ensures that the workpiece remains stationary. This is especially important for precision cutting operations.

[0013] Some sawing machines use moving clamps that allow the workpiece to advance towards the saw blade. Such clamps are placed on a platform to move the workpiece and ensure that the workpiece moves smoothly during the cutting process.

[0014] In the up-to-date sawing machines in the current art, the movable clamp jaw is generally controlled using reciprocating movement elements. However, in this case, depending on the type and size of the material, the compression accuracy cannot be achieved at the desired level.

[0015] The document CN208033798 in the literature relates to a cutting tool, in particular a clamping and fixing device used for cutting a circular ingot with a band saw. In the clamping system used in the relevant document, the motion of the movable jaw is provided by the hydraulic piston. No electric motor control is mentioned for the compression process.

[0016] The document with file number CN210080860 in the literature describes a cutting apparatus structure that ensures the proper operation of the circular saw, prevents the saw blade from cracking or breaking, thus increasing the reliability of the workpiece processing and extending the life of the circular saw blade. Here again, the movement of the movable clamping jaw is provided through the piston and no electric motor control is mentioned for the compression process.

[0017] In the document with the file number TR201505733 in the literature, an automatic sawing machine is mentioned. While the movements of the carrier plates on the sawing machine are provided by servo motors, the clamping movement of the movable clamping jaw used for clamping the material to be cut in the cutting area is also provided by the piston. Here, no electric motor control is mentioned for the control of the motion of the movable clamp jaw for the process of keeping the material to be cut under the saw blade during the cutting process.

[0018] BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0019] The invention relates to the electric motor controlled material fixing clamp developed in order to keep the material to be cut in sawing machines stable and suitable for cutting in order to ensure both high cutting quality and operator safety during cutting.

[0020] The motion of the movable clamp jaw (3) on the developed electric motor controlled material fixing clamp towards the fixed clamp jaw (2) is provided by the electric motor (4). The movement limits of the movable clamp jaw (3) are determined by torque control over the electric motor (4) driver, thus ensuring that the material to be cut is kept stable as desired between the fixed clamp jaw (2) and the movable clamp jaw (3). Thanks to the torque control of the electric motor (4), the movable clamping jaw (3) keeps the material to be cut stable with the desired compressive force and the cutting can be carried out in a healthy way. The movement limits of the movable clamp jaw (3) on the developed electric motor controlled material fixing clamp can be determined optionally by means of the sensor (7) that allows the determination of the type, dimensions, hardness and similar properties of the material to be used and cut on the system. Thus, it is ensured that the material to be cut is kept constant with the desired clamping force between the fixed clamp jaw (2) and the movable clamping jaw (3).

[0021] The sensor (7), which can preferably be used on the developed electric motor controlled material fixing clamp, provides the control of the electric motor (4) in a way to determine the limit of the motion of the movable clamp jaw (3) towards the fixed clamp jaw (2) by detecting the size, hardness, magnetic properties and / or the compressive force / pressure created by the movable clamp jaw (3) on the material to be cut in the sawing machine and placed in the cutting position on the clamp middle body (1). Thus, the movable clamp jaw (3) keeps the material to be cut stable with the desired compressive force and the cutting can be carried out in a healthy way.

[0040] The movable clamp jaw (3) developed in the electric motor controlled material fixing clamp of the invention moves bidirectionally towards the fixed clamp jaw (2) in the channel on the clamp middle body (1) depending on the rotational movement driven by the electric motor (4) of the threaded shaft (5) to which it is connected through the movable jaw nut body (6).

[0041] The subject of the invention includes the parts and sections of the movable jaw nut body (6) that provides the connection of the motion of the movable jaw (3) on the threaded shaft (5) developed in the electric motor controlled material fixing clamp, at least one cup pressure spring (6.1 ) that supports the compression force to be applied by the movable jaw (3) during compression, the nut slot (6.2) that allows the nut to be positioned on it, the slot cover (6.3) that allows the nut to be fixed and the threaded shaft nut (6.4) that provides the connection of the body (6) on the threaded shaft (5) and is positioned on the nut slot.

[0042] In the electric motor controlled material fixing clamp of the invention, there is at least one sensor (7) that preferably determines the size, hardness, magnetic properties and / or the compressive force / pressure created by the movable clamp jaw (3) of the material to be cut, which is optionally positioned between the fixed clamp jaw (2) and the movable clamp jaw (3).

[0043] The sensor (7), which is developed and optionally used in the electric motor controlled material fixing clamp of the invention, is preferably positioned on the movable clamp jaw (4).

While the movable clamp jaw (3) compresses the material to be cut towards the fixed clamp jaw (2), the compressive force / pressure created by the movable clamp jaw (3) on the material is precisely adjusted with the torque control made through the electric motor (4) driver. In this way, the material to be cut is kept stable between the clamp jaws in a way that is most suitable for its properties and dimensions and it is ensured that the cutting process is carried out in a healthy way.

[0046] The sensor (7), which can be used optionally in the electric motor controlled material fixing clamp of the invention, provides the determination of the size, hardness, magnetic properties of the material to be cut and / or the compressive force / pressure created on the material by the movable clamp jaw (3) and stops the motions of the movable clamp jaw (3) from the electric motor (4) through the threaded shaft (5) at the moment when it needs to terminate the compression process. In this way, the material to be cut is kept stable between the clamp jaws in a way that is most suitable for its properties and dimensions and it is ensured that the cutting process is carried out in a healthy way.
