Definitions
- the present invention relates to a rapid operating mechanism for advancing or retracting the screw spindle of clamping means, for example clamps, vises, and such-like.
- clamping devices fall into two categories: manual type, and hydraulic type.
- manual type the application of the former is much limited due to the structure thereof, and adapted only to special C-clamps.
- such device entails a preparatory step to set the screw in operating position and is therefore inconvenient. For this reason, it is not preferably accepted by the public. While the cost of production of the latter is also high, it is not adapted to ordinary use.
- the layout of such device is inconveniently bulky, thus limiting its application to some specialized works.
- a yet known means to obtain the rapid advance or retraction of clamping means to fasten or release the workpiece is accomplished by an eccentric nut provided with thread means on half of its internal surface, which nut, normally does not in engagement with the screw spindle, yet when turned inside a hollow cylindrical body in the frame, will produce a radial displacement such that its half-threads engage with the screw spindle penetrating through it. Rapidly as it can fasten or release the workpiece, such device suffers several disadvantages as follows:
- the invention concerns a rapid advancing or retracting mechanism for a clamping device, comprising a screw spindle, a nut provided with female threads which can mesh with the male threads of said screw spindle, support means for said nut and spring means, said support means and spring means cooperating with each other so that when said nut is not in mesh with said spindle, at least part of said nut is resiliently urged against the spindle, insomuch that the screw spindle is allowed to make frictional axial movement in said nut, and the nut can frictionally co-rotate with said spindle, and a radial displacement of said nut with respect to the axis of said spindle is produced when the nut co-rotates with said spindle, so that the threads of said nut and the threads of said spindle engage when said spindle is turned in a first direction of rotation that produces axial advancing of the spindle, or disengage when said spindle is turned in a second direction of rotation that produces axial retracting
- the load is equally distributed to the two nut halves as well as the periphery of the screw spindle, thus largely reducing the wear thereof.
- the said two springs are interconnected in an end-to-end manner to define a loop wrapping around said nut halves and each of said two springs is provided with elongate slots extending along the length of the spring along the path that said pins make relative to the springs when each spring is turned in said hollow body, including an open slot and a close slot, separated by a stop piece which is so positioned that when the threads of said nut halves are completely in mesh with said screw spindle, the springs are stopped by said pins with their stop piece lying in the pins' path of relative motion.
- each spring is formed integrally by a piece of highly tough, resilient metal.
- Figure 4 is an embodiment of this invention.
- this invention comprises a hollow cylindrical body 1 for receiving a pair of split nuts 3, 3', resiliently retained in place by a pair of springs 4, 4'.
- the inner wall cylindrical body 1 is provided with two opposite pins 11 which form an integral part of cylindrical body 1.
- the broken lines with reference numerals 31 and 31' designate the female thread of the split nuts 3, 3'.
- the arrow X in Figures 1A and 1 B indicates the direction of the advance of the screw spindle 2.
- Each of the tails 42, 42' of springs 4, 4' is structured to engage with the heads 43', 43 of another spring.
- Figure 2 there is shown a plane view of one of the aforementioned springs, which is formed integrally by a highly tough, flexible and machine- able steel plate with two slots including a closed slot 44 and an open slot (not numeralled) extending along the length of the spring to allow a pin to pass through.
- a stop piece 41 divides the slot into two. Both sides of ends of the heads 43, 43' are flanged, to define an inserter 431 to insert into groove 33 and to abut the tail 42 of another spring, whereas only one side of the end of the tail 42 is flanged.
- a tapering 34, 34' of the thickness of the nut wall at the two margins is found to give better results.
- Figure 4 is an embodiment of this invention. In operation, one only needs to push the screw spindle 2 forward to touch the workpiece, and then fasten it with a few turns in the first direction. Likewise, while dismounting the workpiece, one only needs to make a turn in reverse direction, then pull the screw spindle 2 back.
