Application Overview

Purpose

  • Purpose
    • To allow for easy clamping of workpiece.
  • Operation
    • Lift lever arm to clamp workpiece.
    • Lower lever arm to release workpiece.

Points for use

  • This design is suitable for applications that require low dust generation.

Target workpiece

  • Shape: stepped block
  • Size: W40xD38xH44mm

Design Specifications

Operating Conditions or Design Requirements

  • Clamp angle when fixed:52°
  • Outer dimensions: W62xD226xH187mm

Selection Criteria for Main Components

  • To reduce the friction coefficient, the same material is employed in the roller follower and the plate cam and Wedge

    An object that is made thick at one end and becomes thinner toward the other end. It is designed to be driven into a clearance to put pressure on two objects so that they do not separate from each other.

    .

Design Evaluation

Verification of main components

  • The tightening force during workpiece clamping is verified.
  • Tightening force during workpiece clamping
    • Conditional value:Wedge

      An object that is made thick at one end and becomes thinner toward the other end. It is designed to be driven into a clearance to put pressure on two objects so that they do not separate from each other.

      tip θ1 = 14°, friction coefficient μ = 0.4, wedge driving force F1 = 3kgf, gravitational acceleration g = 9.8m/
    • The tightening force during clamping (face pressure on plate cam) F2 is
      F2=F1/(2×(μ×cosθ+sinθ)) therefore, F2=3×9.8/(2×(0.8×cos14°+sin14°))=23N

Other Design Consideration

  • Wedge

    An object that is made thick at one end and becomes thinner toward the other end. It is designed to be driven into a clearance to put pressure on two objects so that they do not separate from each other.

    mechanism was also designed to lock arm position when clamping workpiece
  • The mechanism in this application example operates with a clamping movement from the bottom to the top.
