Internal expansion fixture for thin-walled parts

InactiveCN102266957AImprove product qualityGuaranteed processing standardsExpansion mandrelsEngineeringMachine tool
The invention discloses an internal expansion fixture for thin-walled parts. The fixture comprises: a machine tool connection plate, a tie rod flange plate, a positioning seat, and a fixed mandrel shaft. When the fixture disclosed by the present invention is in operation, under the action of the pull force of the pull rod of the machine tool, the pull force is transmitted to the elastic expansion sleeve through the pull rod flange and the connecting rod. Since the elastic expansion sleeve is limited by the connecting rod, it cannot rotate freely and can only move axially on the tapered surface of the fixed mandrel. At the same time, when the elastic expansion sleeve moves axially, it passes through the tapered surface of the fixed mandrel, and converts the pulling force into a radial expansion force and a pulling force toward the positioning surface. It is because of the above-mentioned pulling force toward the positioning surface that the parts will be automatically pressed against the positioning surface, and the parts will not be pressed tightly due to the operator's mistakes, resulting in gross errors in the processing of the parts. Therefore, the product quality of the parts is effectively improved, and the processing benchmark of the next process is guaranteed.

InactiveCN101117819AImprove side resistanceAlleviate stress concentrationShock proofingSupporting systemMomentum
The present invention relates to a suspended large steel frame support structure with an additional damping device, which is applicable for high buildings and composed of a main structure and a sub-structure. The main structure is adopted with a large steel frame support structure, which is characterized that the support structure is composed of a splayed tough support and a reversal splayed pre-stress cable; the sub-structure is suspended on a large beam of the main structure; a horizontal damping device is arranged between the sub-structure and the main structure. The reversal splayed pre-stress cable can offset large push generated by the splayed tough support and transmit load in the large beam span to a large column in the form of pull to reduce the shearing force, the bending moment and the deflection of the beam, therefore, compared with a large frame structure, the large steel frame support structure can improve lateral resistance; compared with a large truss structure, the large steel frame support structure relieves collective stress. A damping device provided between the main structure and the sub-structure consumes more horizontal momentum, and greatly reduces the displacement and the acceleration of suspended floors.

Tape muscle

A Tape Muscle is described where multiple tape loops are independently driven by synchronized grasp and pull actions from a tandem of Clamp, Clamp & Drive modules. Each tape loop is elastically bent, with its open ends threaded through individual passageways in both modules. Tape loops are nested inside each other with all tape open ends on the same side. Each loop moves its open ends in equal, opposite directions, while the loop position remains fixed. Tape movements do not interfere with each other. The open ends of each loop attach to a shared appendage, which is pulled back and forth using tensile forces. Drive and hold forces use small angle flexure bending mechanical advantage and high force density electrostatic induction methods. Tape speed results from high frequency clock speed and novel hand-off methods. Governing equations, design details and performance estimates are provided.

Internal shrinking tensile rope parachute

The invention claims an internal shrinking tensile rope parachute. The basic idea of the invention is as follows: using an internal shrinking tensile rope, which can be shortened after being aerated and can produce tensile force and can be prolonged after being stretched and can compress air, to replace the rope tape of the existing parachute system, or adding an internal shrinking tensile rope on the parachute system, and adding a set of air supply system and a sensing control system. Said replaced rope tapes comprise a parachute lanyard (1), a connection rope (2), a binding rope (3), a close rope (4) and so on. When the parachute system with said structure is used, the contraction and stretching of the rope tape is controlled to control the size of the tensile force produced by the rope tape so as to change the shape, position relationship and aerodynamic characteristic of the parachute system to further reduce overload produced on the parachute system, and change the motion speed and direction of the parachute system and reduce landing speed of air-dropped articles. The parachute system with said structure is added with new functions and can probably reduce weight of the parachute system.
