Definitions

  • clamping tools must be robust and long-lasting, generate large clamping forces with small operating forces, especially those applied manually using operating tools, and be characterized by simple, yet operationally reliable operation, which also means that the clamping tool is connected to a clamping table and the workpiece or a tensioning chain and the actuation to tension the tensioning tool must apply.
  • the tensioning rail here has a bore, via which the tensioning rail can be screwed to a clamping table with a T-slot nut and thus fixed to the clamping table.
  • the tensioning rail has an upwardly open longitudinal recess, which corresponds approximately to an inverted T in cross section.
  • a clamping lever can be pushed into the longitudinal recess from the end face.
  • the tensioning lever extends out of the tensioning rail along the vertical leg of the T of the longitudinal recess. Lateral bearing pins of the tensioning lever are guided in the transverse legs of the T of the longitudinal recess.
  • the leadership takes place in such a way that on the one hand, a displacement of the tensioning lever in the longitudinal direction of the tensioning rail is possible and, on the other hand, a pivoting of the tensioning lever about a pivot axis relative to the tensioning rail predetermined by the bearing pin is possible.
  • the tensioning lever forms a tensioning lever part into which a tensioning screw is screwed in one end area. Another tensioning lever part of the tensioning lever forms a clamping jaw for the workpiece or a linkage of a tensioning chain.
  • the clamping screw comes to rest on a clamping surface in the area of the bottom of the longitudinal recess of the clamping rail.
  • the further screwing in of the clamping screw leads to a pivoting of the clamping lever and thus a clamping of the workpiece in the area of the clamping jaw.
  • Fig. 1 shows a bearing shoe 1 according to EP 0 714 734 B1 in a side view while Fig. 2 shows a cross section II-II of the bearing shoe 1 with the clamping lever 20 inserted therein.
  • the bearing shoe 1 has a roughly cuboid base body 2, from which two parallel ribs 3, 4 extend upwards.
  • a longitudinal recess 5 which is continuous in the vertical direction extends into the base body 2.
  • the base body 2 Lateral to the longitudinal recess 5, the base body 2 has recesses 6, 7 by means of which a receptacle 8 is formed.
  • the recesses 6, 7 or the receptacle 8 are or is laterally limited by vertical side walls 9, 10 of the bearing shoe 1 and limited at the top by angled portions 11, 12 which form bearing surfaces 13, 14 of the bearing shoe 1.
  • the clamping lever 20 has lateral bearing journals 15, 16 which can be inserted into the receptacle 8 from below and form the bearing surfaces 17, 18 when these are supported on the bearing surfaces 13, 14 of the bearing shoe 1 while allowing pivoting about a pivot axis 19 .
  • the ribs 3, 4 (and a part of the bends 11, 12) caught between the bearing journals 15, 16 of the clamping lever 20 on the one hand and thickenings 21, 22, so that the clamping lever 20 cannot be separated from the bearing shoe 1 in this pivoted position of the clamping lever 20.
  • the top of the ribs 3, 4 is rounded off concentrically to the pivot axis 19, so that the ribs 3, 4 do not hinder pivoting. If the clamping lever 20 is pivoted in such a way that the ribs 3, 4 of the bearing shoe 1 are arranged in a circumferential area of the clamping lever in which there are no thickenings 21, 22, the clamping lever 20 can be removed from the bearing shoe 1.
  • the tensioning lever 20 is acted upon away from this assembly and disassembly position via a leaf spring, namely in an opening direction of the tensioning lever 20.
  • the bearing shoe 1 forms steps with horizontal support surfaces 23, 24. With these support surfaces 23, 24, the bearing shoe is supported in the vertical direction on corresponding horizontal support surfaces of the tensioning rail.
  • the pamphlet CH 450 871 A proposes a clamping tool by means of which a clamping force is to be generated which is oriented parallel to a clamping plane.
  • the clamping tool should be designed as flat as possible so that it does not protrude beyond the machining surface of a clamped workpiece, which is arranged on the side of the workpiece facing away from the clamping plane.
  • this consists of a clamping lever which, with a web-like extension with a spherical bearing surface on one side, is to be inserted directly into a T-groove of a clamping plate and to be pivotably mounted in it.
  • an anchoring element which is also referred to here as a base, is inserted into the T-slot of the clamping plate.
  • a longitudinal section of the anchoring element is T-shaped so that it can be inserted positively into the T-slot of the clamping plate.
  • the horizontal leg of the T is formed with a horizontal slot. The height of the slot and thus of the horizontal leg of the T can be increased via an anchoring screw, with which the anchoring element can be clamped to the T-slot of the clamping plate and thus fixed in this (regardless of the clamping of a workpiece).
  • the width of the anchoring element corresponds to the width of the vertical leg of the T of the T-slot of the clamping plate.
  • the anchoring element forms a concave, part-cylindrical and obliquely upwardly and forwardly open socket, on which the end-side soon bearing surface of the web-like extension of the clamping lever downwards on the Anchoring element is supported.
  • the anchoring element is first fixed in the T-slot of the clamping plate adjacent to the workpiece in such a way that a gap remains between the anchoring element and the workpiece, which allows the clamping lever to be inserted obliquely from the front into the T-slot of the clamping plate and into the pan enables.
  • the assembly play between the front clamping surface of the clamping lever and the workpiece can be closed by actuating a clamping screw with which the clamping lever is pivoted in the pan and the clamping surface is pressed against the workpiece.
  • the pamphlet U.S. 1,490,063 A discloses a tensioning lever in which two parallel cover plates are connected to one another via connecting elements.
  • a front connecting element here swivellably carries a clamping jaw, by means of which a workpiece is to be clamped from above.
  • a rear connecting element forms a threaded hole for a clamping screw.
  • a central connecting element is designed as a bearing pin, via which the clamping lever can be pivotably mounted on a base part.
  • the base part has a base with a T-shaped cross section from which a bearing plate extends vertically upwards.
  • the bearing plate forms hook-shaped bulges.
  • the bearing plate can enter the space between the cover plates of the tensioning lever, with which the bearing pin of the tensioning lever can be hooked into the bulges, whereby the tensioning lever is pivotably mounted on the bearing plate.
  • the invention proposes a tensioning tool which has a tensioning rail, a bearing shoe which is displaceably guided in the direction of a longitudinal axis with respect to the tensioning rail, a tensioning lever which is pivotably supported via lateral bearing journals on a receptacle formed by the bearing shoe, and a tensioning screw, which is preferably is screwed into an end region of a tensioning lever part of the tensioning lever.
  • the clamping tool can basically according to the in EP 0 714 734 B1 described embodiments be formed.
  • the invention is based on the knowledge that, according to the prior art, the receptacle formed by the bearing shoe has a complex geometry, which may also be It is complex to manufacture, since the inner and outer contours of the side walls 9, 10, the angled portions 11, 12 and the ribs 3, 4 and the bearing surfaces 13, 14 and support surfaces 23, 24 (cf. Fig. 2 ) is required with the required precision.
  • the invention proposes that the receptacle formed by the bearing shoe is open laterally, so that the side walls 9, 10, and possibly also the angled portions 11, 12, can be partially or completely omitted. As a result, the use of materials can be reduced, the weight can be reduced and production can be significantly simplified.
  • the prior art requires that side walls of the tensioning rail, side walls 9, 10 of the bearing shoe and the bearing journals 15, 16 must be arranged next to one another in the lateral direction. If the side walls 9, 10 are omitted, a clamping tool of compact construction can be provided, at least in the area of the bearing journals 15, 16. Alternatively or cumulatively, it is possible that, without increasing the lateral dimensions in this area, the side walls of the tensioning rail or also the bearing pins 15, 16 and / or a base body of the tensioning lever can have a greater lateral extent, which results in a more solid and stiffer configuration.
  • the laterally open design of the receptacle also enables a tool such as a milling cutter or drill to be moved with lateral feed for manufacturing the bearing surfaces of the receptacle with, for example, milling or drilling machining of the bearing shoe.
  • the bearing shoe extends in the area of the bearing journals (under certain circumstances exclusively) along the outer surface of the bearing journals, while no material of the bearing shoe is arranged between the end faces of the bearing journals and the tensioning rail.
  • the bearing shoe extends in the area of the bearing journals (under certain circumstances exclusively) along the outer surface of the bearing journals, while no material of the bearing shoe is arranged between the end faces of the bearing journals and the tensioning rail.
  • the tensioning lever is guided laterally in the tensioning rail by the end faces of the bearing journals resting against guide surfaces of the tensioning rail. This results in a direct lateral support of the tensioning lever on the tensioning rail.
  • the tensioning lever is laterally supported on a lateral end face of the bearing shoe, while the bearing shoe is then laterally supported and guided with a further lateral end face on the tensioning rail.
  • the bearing shoe is arranged in the force flow between the tensioning lever and the tensioning rail for the lateral support.
  • the bearing surfaces of the bearing journals of the tensioning lever and of the bearing shoe may have steps.
  • the clamping lever is then guided laterally with respect to the bearing shoe via the at least one step. In this way, the lateral support of the clamping lever takes place initially via the step on the bearing shoe.
  • the bearing shoe is then guided laterally in the tensioning rail by a lateral side surface of the bearing shoe resting against a guide surface of the tensioning rail.
  • bearing surfaces of the bearing shoe in particular in the mutually facing edges of the bearing surfaces, have a bevel. If there is such a bevel, the tensioning lever does not have to have a sharp corner, edge or an abrupt change in cross-section in this area. Rather, the tensioning lever can then be designed with an undercut or an edge radius, which reduces the notch effect and results in a higher load capacity and service life of the tensioning lever.
  • the bearing shoe has a flat base body which, for example, can have parallel upper and lower sides.
  • the base body can ensure vertical support of the bearing shoe with respect to the tensioning rail in the area of the upper and lower sides, while lateral support can take place in the area of the side surfaces of the base body.
  • the top of the base body can provide a clamping surface on which the clamping screw can be supported.
  • the bearing shoe possibly has two bearing arms which protrude from the base body and are cranked. Form the bearing arms then the bearing surfaces that limit the receptacle for the bearing pin of the clamping lever and serve to pivot the bearing pin of the clamping lever.
  • the bearing arms are multifunctional in that they do not only serve to support the bearing journals of the tensioning lever. Rather, in this case, the upper sides of the bearing arms have support surfaces via which the bearing shoe is supported upwards on the tensioning rail. This can result in a stiff support of the tensioning lever on the tensioning rail, for which the force flow runs via the bearing arms between the upper-side support surfaces and the bearing surfaces.
  • the support surfaces are preferably flat, which can result in a large contact surface between these support surfaces and the tensioning rail. It is also possible for the support surfaces to be designed parallel to a support surface formed by the underside of the base body.
  • the bearing shoe With a suitable distance from the support surfaces of the tensioning rail with a play or transition fit or a play to the distance between the support surfaces formed by the upper sides of the bearing arms and the support surface formed by the underside of the base body, the bearing shoe can in this way be longitudinally displaceable in the vertical direction in the Be caught in the tensioning rail.
  • the bearing surfaces of the bearing arms, on which the bearing journals of the tensioning lever are supported, and the support surfaces of the bearing arms, in the area in which the bearing shoe is supported upward on the tensioning rail have a lateral overlap of at least 50%, in particular at least 70%, 80% or even 100%, which reduces or eliminates bending stress of the type explained above and thus results in reduced component stress and increases the design leeway for the dimensioning of the components .
  • bearing arms and the base body are connected to one another via stiffening ribs. This is particularly the case when the bearing shoe is manufactured using a non-cutting manufacturing process (in particular casting or forging).
  • the bearing shoe is made from a plate-shaped semi-finished product.
  • This can be, for example, a spring steel sheet made of spring steel, to name but a few non-limiting examples.
  • the production of the bearing shoe can take place in such a way that a cutout is made in the end face of the plate-shaped semi-finished product.
  • the remaining material of the plate-shaped semi-finished product then forms the bearing arms which protrude from the base body.
  • the bearing arms are then cranked as a result of plastic deformation.
  • the process steps mentioned can be carried out in any order. It is possible that these process steps are followed by post-processing, for example with milling of the bearing surfaces with the required accuracies and surface qualities.
  • the bearing surfaces of the bearing arms of the bearing shoe are designed to be continuous or open in the lateral direction.
  • a “continuous bearing surface in the lateral direction” is understood to mean, in particular, a bearing surface which merges directly or at most via a chamfer or a small curve radius into an outer side wall of the bearing shoe, and / or bearing surfaces which can be interrupted between the two bearing arms , but are not covered laterally to the outside by the material of the bearing shoe.
  • Such a configuration enables the bearing surfaces of the bearing arms of the bearing shoe to be produced by machining.
  • the bearing surfaces can be machined using a milling cutter or drill, with the tool advancing in the lateral direction. It is also possible, however, for a milling cutter to be moved into the semi-finished product from below, in which case, however, the milling cutter can also have a diameter that is greater than the lateral extension of the bearing shoe.
  • the bearing surfaces have a high surface roughness for manufacturing the bearing surfaces using a casting or forging process
  • machining the bearing surfaces of the bearing arms can produce an ideal bearing surface, which in particular leads to a reduction in friction and any wear .
  • the friction which is opposed to the pivoting of the clamping lever between the bearing surfaces of the bearing shoe on the one hand and the clamping lever on the other, significantly influences the efficiency of the clamping tool, which describes the clamping force of the clamping tool that can be brought about with a predetermined actuation force of the clamping screw.
  • the clamping lever is supported in terms of its pivot position on the bearing shoe only by guiding the bearing journals of the clamping lever on the bearing surfaces of the bearing shoe on the one hand and by supporting the clamping screw on the support surface of the bearing shoe on the other hand.
  • the tensioning lever can basically be freely pivoted in the closing direction from an open position predetermined by the position of the tensioning screw. It is possible that in this case a spring is used which acts on the tensioning lever in the opening direction in order to bring about a defined starting position which is predetermined by the tensioning screw.
  • an end region of the clamping screw in particular a support plate of the clamping screw, is coupled to the bearing shoe.
  • the coupling takes place in such a way that the end region of the clamping screw is held or caught on the bearing shoe in both directions of adjustment of the clamping screw, which can be done without play or with play.
  • a swivel angle of the tensioning lever is therefore also specified, the swivel angle being dependent on the screwing angle of the tensioning screw into the tensioning lever.
  • the coupling takes place in such a way that the end region of the clamping screw is guided with one degree of freedom in a longitudinal direction of the bearing shoe with respect to the bearing shoe.
  • Such a degree of freedom can be used for a change in the relative position of the end region of the clamping screw with respect to the bearing shoe with a change in the screwing angle of the clamping screw into the clamping lever.
  • a coupling between the end region of the tensioning screw and the bearing shoe can take place through a groove running in the longitudinal direction of the bearing shoe with edge-side undercuts of the groove, into which a plate of the tensioning screw can be inserted, which is then transverse to the longitudinal axis of the groove as well as after is caught in the groove at the top and bottom.

  • the edge or the transition from the bearing journals 15, 16 to the web 45 may be rounded or an undercut, which results in a reduced notch effect, in spite of the exact fit of the clamping lever 20 in the bearing shoe 1 .
  • the bearing arms 51, 52 extend “fork-like” and parallel to one another from the base body 2 of the bearing shoe 1.
  • Fig. 12 shows a cross section accordingly Fig. 4 by a clamping tool 25 for another embodiment.
  • a clamping tool 25 for another embodiment.
  • Correspondingly designed steps 57, 58 so that in this case also the bearing surfaces 13, 14, 17, 18 are able to transmit a lateral support force between the clamping lever 20 and the bearing shoe 1, which in turn is then through the vertical side surfaces of the bearing arms 51, 52 of the bearing shoe 1 can be supported on the side walls 9, 10 of the tensioning rail 27.
  • the components of the clamping tool 25 can be cast and forged, and the components can be reworked by milling, for example, in particular to produce the bearing surfaces 13, 14, the steps 57, 58 and the like.
  • Figures 13 to 16 show a further embodiment of a clamping tool 25 or of components of the same, the statements made about the previous embodiments apply here until further notice. While for this embodiment the tensioning rail 27 is unchanged compared to the previous embodiment, the tensioning lever 20 has a modified geometry with modified tensioning lever parts 37, 38 as well as a modified design of the web 45 and a modified vertical distance of the bearing pins 15, 16 from the tensioning lever parts 37, 38 in the vertical direction.
  • the bearing shoe 1 is here preferably made from a plate-shaped semi-finished product, for example a spring steel sheet.
  • a U-shaped end-face incision, a cutout or a recess 59 is made in the semi-finished product.
  • the bearing arms 51, 52 are then plastically deformed to produce the offset 36. It goes without saying that the plastic deformation of the semifinished product can also take place first and then the cutout 59 can be produced.
  • the bearing surfaces 13, 14 and any bevel 55, 56 can then be produced, whereby it is possible here for the milling cutter to be advanced from the bottom to the top (which is important for the formation of the bearing surfaces 13, 14 and / or the bevels 55, 56 applies) or a lateral advance is possible (which applies in particular to the production of the bearing surfaces 13, 14).
  • the flattened, flat support surfaces 30, 31 can then be produced, in particular by means of milling.
  • the bearing shoe 1 has an essentially constant material height (approximately corresponding to the thickness of the plate-shaped semi-finished product), it being possible for the material height to be slightly reduced in the area of the flattened areas to form the support surfaces 30, 31.
  • FIG. 17 to 21 a further embodiment of a clamping tool 25 or of components of the same is shown.
  • the clamping screw 26 was only coupled to the bearing shoe on one side due to the one-sided contact with the clamping surface 43 of the bearing shoe 1, which makes it possible to limit the opening movement of the clamping lever 20 and to generate the clamping force when the clamping screw 26 is screwed in.
  • the bearing shoe 1 has a central groove 60 which is oriented in the direction of the longitudinal axis and which has lateral undercuts 61, 62.
  • a clamping plate 44 which here is formed integrally and in one piece from the clamping screw 26 (although it is also entirely possible that the clamping plate is formed separately and is connected to a base body of the clamping screw 26 via a ball joint), is in the groove 60 behind the undercuts 61, 62 caught. This can be done with a play in the vertical direction or with a play fit or a transition fit.
  • the cross section of the groove 60 is shown in FIG Fig. 19 to recognize.
  • the bearing shoe 1 is U-shaped in cross-section with a horizontal base leg 63 and vertical side legs 64, 65.
  • the top of the base leg 63 serves to form the clamping surface 43 and thus to support the clamping force of the clamping screw 26.
  • the Side legs 64 have rib-like transverse webs 66, 67, below which the undercuts 61, 62 are formed and on the lower support surfaces 68, 69 of which the clamping plate 44 is supported upwards.
  • the support surfaces 68, 69 are inclined in such a way that they run upwards (without this necessarily being the case).
  • the lateral guidance of the clamping screw 26 takes place, as shown, through the end faces of the transverse webs 66, 67, it also being entirely possible for the lateral guidance to take place through the side legs 64, 65, on which the clamping plate 44 then comes to rest.
  • the groove is designed to be open on one side, namely in the direction away from the receptacle 8.
  • the closed end of the groove 60 is arranged adjacent to the crank 36.
  • the transverse webs 66, 67 run out at the closed end of the groove 60, so that an insertion opening 70 in the form of a segment of a circle results, with which the groove 60 is opened in this end region.
  • the edge of the insertion opening 70 extends over a circumferential angle of more than 180 °, in particular in the range from 200 ° to 270 °.
  • the diameter of the insertion opening 70 is slightly larger than the diameter of the clamping plate 44, so that the clamping screw 26 with the clamping plate 44 from above into the insertion opening 70 and can be inserted into the groove 60. If the clamping screw 26 is then moved away from the receptacle 8 and the bearing arms 51, 52 along the longitudinal recess 5, the clamping screw 26 with the clamping plate 44 is caught between a bottom 71 of the groove 60 and the support surfaces 68, 69 of the transverse webs 66, 67.
  • the tensioning lever 20 is preferably assembled with the bearing shoe 1 as follows: First, the tensioning screw 26 is screwed into the tensioning lever 20. The clamping plate 44 of the clamping screw 26 is then inserted through the insertion opening 70 into the groove 60. If the clamping plate 44 of the clamping screw 26 is still in the end region of the groove 60 formed by the insertion opening 70, the bearing pins 15, 16 of the clamping lever 20 are arranged in the longitudinal direction in front of the receptacle 8. With a movement of the clamping lever 20 in the direction of the longitudinal axis 29, the clamping plate 44 of the clamping screw 26 moves to the rear in the groove 60, whereby the clamping plate 44 is then caught in the groove 60.
  • any materials with any manufacturing processes, alloys, or surface treatments can be used for the components of the clamping tool 25.
  • a component can be cast, forged or extruded, or a plate-shaped semi-finished product can be used. It is possible that a surface of the component is surface-finished, in particular galvanized or nickel-plated. It is also possible for the components to be tempered. Long-term nitriding is possible, whereby a nitriding depth can be brought about.
  • the bearing surfaces 13, 14 can be produced, for example, by milling, with the result that the quality of the bearing surfaces 13, 14 is improved, the wear is reduced and there is a lower frictional force. This can have the result that the clamping force brought about with an exemplary (actuating or) tightening torque at a certain level for the clamping screw 27 is increased by up to 50%.
  • the bearing surfaces 13, 14 preferably have a radius.
  • the bearing shoe 1 can be produced from a plate-shaped semi-finished product.
  • the receptacle 8 is open at the side also makes it easier to clean the receptacle 8 in the event of soiling, and less soiling is deposited in the receptacle 8 in any case.
  • the base body 2 of the bearing shoe 1 is also designed with a continuous milling or recess in the area of the clamping surface 43, so that a clamping plate 44 of the clamping screw 26 is not on the bearing shoe 1, but rather through the bearing shoe 1 on the tensioning rail 27, the clamping screw 26 then extending through the said recess of the bearing shoe 1.
  • a material is preferably used which has a very high tensile strength. The material can be spring steel.
  • the clamping lever 20 has two lateral bearing pins 15, 16, which extend laterally outward from the web 45 and on the fork-like bearing arms 51, 52 of the bearing shoe 1, each with a bearing surface 13, 14 for an associated bearing pin 15, 16 are supported.
  • the bearing shoe 1 can only have a central bearing arm instead of the fork-like design of the bearing arms 51, 52.
  • the clamping lever 20 is designed with two fork-like webs.
  • a single bearing pin can then extend between the webs of the clamping lever 20, which can be formed, for example, by a bearing pin inserted in the bearing eyes of the webs or a bearing pin screwed into the webs and extending in the lateral direction.
  • This single bearing journal of the tensioning lever 20 can then be supported on the single bearing arm of the bearing shoe 1.
