What is the design principle of a horizontal toggle clamp?

Horizontal toggle clamp has medium and small manufacturing plants in mechanical manufacturing, and the production scale also includes medium and mass production. Therefore, when designing a horizontal toggle clamp, the actual situation of the manufacturer should be combined with a more advanced, economical, and reasonable clamp program. Let us introduce in detail what are the design principles of the horizontal toggle clamp.

Here is the content list:

Develop a design plan

Design standards

Draw structural sketches

Determine the positioning element and clamping method

Develop a design plan

According to the process specification, the engineer determines the design scheme of the horizontal toggle clamp and selects the fixture structure scheme according to the process design. It is necessary to determine the process content of the designed fixture, the process technical requirements of the designed fixture, the machine tools and tools used in the process of the designed fixture, the relationship between the subsequent processes, the process reference used in the process design, and the number of parts to be processed at the same time.

Design standards

The horizontal toggle clamp design should ensure the machining accuracy of parts and ensure productivity. Try to make the horizontal toggle clamp simple in structure, easy to operate, safe and reliable, and economical. Use standard components as much as possible.

Draw structural sketches

When drawing the sketch of the horizontal toggle clamp, attention should be paid to the size of the connection between the horizontal toggle clamp and the machine tool, the space for loading and unloading the workpiece, and the layout of the operating position. After the structural plan is reviewed and the structural assembly sketch is drawn, the relevant questions should be brought to the relevant factory to listen to the opinions of the operators. If there is a similar horizontal toggle clamp at the production site, the processing conditions and the operator's opinions should be collected. After the preliminary plan is formed, it should be discussed with merchants and customers, and opinions from all parties should be listened to, and then revised and finalized.

Determine the positioning element and clamping method

Put forward a variety of schemes of the horizontal toggle clamp positioning piece arrangement and clamping mechanism and analyze and compare them. Finally, choose the best solution, choose standard positioning parts, clamping parts, or design by yourself with reference to technical requirements. After the positioning of the workpiece and the fixture plan are determined, they should be discussed with the customer, and the design can be continued after obtaining permission.

Determine the correct relationship between the horizontal toggle clamp and the tool, guide and arrange the tool parts to determine the correct connection between the fixture and the machine tool, the layout of the orientation parts, and determine the correct installation method of the horizontal toggle clamp on the machine tool.
