Description
Mechanical self-locking device and mechanical self-locking tolerance bottom plate cylinder Technical Field The invention discloses the technical field of vehicle production lines, and relates to a mechanical self-locking device and a mechanical self-locking tolerance bottom plate cylinder. Background The traditional tolerance bottom plate cylinder is a unit consisting of a shell and a locating pin, wherein the pin in the bottom plate cylinder unit is used for realizing the positioning of the front, back, left and right directions of a vehicle body, and the hook is clamped in the height direction through the cylinder of the bottom plate cylinder unit and an internal mechanical mechanism, so that the positioning in the vertical direction is realized. The clamping principle is that a four-bar structure is adopted to convert the pressure of the air cylinder into the clamping force of the hook, so that the positioning and clamping functions are realized. In order to meet the requirements of clamping different plate thicknesses, a guide groove design is added on a hook body, and a reinforcing steel sheet is added on a mechanical structure, so that a connecting rod mechanism moves on the arc of the reinforcing steel sheet, and the hook can clamp plates with 3mm difference thin and thick plates. Simultaneously, the bottom of the cylinder is provided with a pneumatic control device which is provided with an external air source inlet and an external air source outlet, and after the cylinder is clamped and disconnected, the pneumatic control device automatically seals the air in the cylinder body and prevents the air from leaking, so that the internal mechanism of the cylinder cannot move, a self-locking state is formed, and the disconnected air self-locking is realized through an air pressure maintaining mechanism.
