Work Clamping Means TRIZ Cases

A repositionable manifold block reroutes hydraulic paths so one cylinder case can switch between inner and outer gripping without replacement.

An angled holding adapter enables simple perpendicular machining of angled end faces while a compensating device offsets rotational imbalance.

A wedge-driven locking member and travel limiter improve hole clamping reliability when thin workpieces provide limited inner-surface engagement.

Triangular protrusion-cavity jaw interfaces enable quick jaw changes while maintaining stable engagement and high clamping force.

Applied vibration at the clamping contact corrects key misalignment in a tool holder, improving attachment accuracy and tool replacement efficiency.

A movable support with an integrated suction pad enables compact multipoint clamping that suppresses chatter and limits deformation on curved or stepped workpieces.

Dual air ports and a valve mechanism let the work support distinguish retracted, non-ascending, and locked rod states despite swarf ingress.

An adapter and conical collet interface lets one gripper handle different workpiece sizes with quicker replacement and precise alignment.

A tubular transmission member and guided output rod keep decelerator meshing stable during repeated locking and releasing, preserving efficiency.

Angled clamp arms apply even force from four directions, reducing workpiece warping and setup time during gluing.

A valve rod and dual chamber air path detect rotary clamp output movement directly, reducing wear and false detection during long use.

A spring-loaded centering element aligns large workpiece carriers while allowing thermal expansion and high repeatable clamping force.

A turning-support structure lets the clamp housing rotate to a new angle while keeping the clamp arm level and free of vertical displacement.

A single movable machining head serves dry and wet dental milling chambers, cutting cost and complexity while preventing contamination.

A wedge and transmission member lock the clamp arm to the clamp rod without dedicated jigs, cutting attachment torque and easing detachment.

Threaded fasteners and a flat annular support hold blank parts without jaw pressure, preserving roundness, flatness, and tool access.

A guide groove stop and engaging member let the output rod halt at a fixed angle despite inertia and wear, preserving clamp alignment.

A resilient clamp and rigid jig arm keep knife blades aligned on the grindstone for precise sharpening with easier setup and cleaner waste handling.

An annular swivel flow path feeds air and cleaning liquid through a rotating table, simplifying turntable structure and reducing supply piping.

A tubular power transmission member and guided output rod isolate reaction forces to preserve mesh quality and clamping efficiency.

Segmented stop and movable fixture blocks clamp multiple workpieces with adjustable travel, reducing tilt, stress concentration, and setup effort.

A guide groove and engaging member lock the output rod at a fixed angle, preventing inertial overshoot and wear-driven misalignment.

An axially displaceable clamping ring and spring-loaded frame hold dental blanks without wear-induced play while allowing wider opening for easy insertion.

A robot hand grips a second workpiece portion to restrict movement, allowing the machine tool to machine the first clamped portion without repositioning.

Radial interference fit clamps plastic workpieces axially using auxiliary structures, reducing deformation and jaw count during machining.

Elastic deflection adapts jaw spacing to varying thicknesses, resolving manufacturing cost versus adaptability trade-offs.
