(a) Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a clamping device for clamping parallel desirable target, or cylindrical desirable target, or spherical desirable target, or unusual shape desirable target, in which two coaxially rotating rotary grippers in sector type cylinder are installed at the same clamping surface in the clamping device, and are commonly installed at the same socket with sector type recessed cylindrical sliding surface of the clip jaw, in which the socket with sector type recessed cylindrical sliding surface of the clip jaw and the rotating axis of the rotary gripper present coaxial arc shape, and the clamping surface at the edge side of the two coaxially rotating rotary grippers in sector type cylinder is used for pressing the desirable target, while the arc back of the two rotary grippers is coupled to the arc coupling surface of the socket with sector type recessed cylindrical sliding surface of the clip jaw, thereby when the surface withstands the pressure from the clamped desirable target, it rotates with the shape of the clamped desirable target along the socket with sector type recessed cylindrical sliding surface of the clip jaw, thus the clamping surface at the side of the two coaxially rotating rotary grippers in sector type cylinder against the desirable target presents stable clamping status.
(b) Description of the Prior Art
When the conventional clamp clamps an unusual shape desirable target, the jig with the shape complementary to that of the desirable target is usually required for assistant, which has shortcomings of high cost and long production time; moreover for the clamping device constituted by being installed with two sector type grippers at the same clip jaw, because of the different axes of the two sector type grippers, there is a gap between two neighboring grippers when rotating, thus a desirable target (120) with smaller diameter cannot be effectively clamped (as shown in
The present invention relates to a clamping device with coaxially rotating gripper pair, which is the clamping device for clamping desirable targets in various shapes, in which two coaxially rotating rotary grippers in sector type cylinder are installed at the same clamping surface in the clamping device, and are commonly installed at the same socket with sector type recessed cylindrical sliding surface of the clip jaw, in which the socket with sector type recessed cylindrical sliding surface of the clip jaw and the rotating axis of the rotary gripper present coaxial arc shape, and the clamping surface at the edge side of the two coaxially rotating rotary grippers in sector type cylinder is used for pressing the desirable target, while the arc back of the two rotary grippers is coupled to the arc coupling surface of the socket with sector type recessed cylindrical sliding surface of the clip jaw, thereby when the surface withstands the pressure from the clamped desirable target, it rotates with the shape of the clamped desirable target along the socket with sector type recessed cylindrical sliding surface of the clip jaw, thus the clamping surface at the side of the two coaxially rotating rotary grippers in sector type cylinder against the desirable target presents stable clamping status.
