Technical Field

The present invention relates to a pneumatic cylinder, and more particularly, to a pneumatic cylinder group used as a clamping device of a jig for inspecting electronic components.

Background

The "pneumatic cylinder" in a general sense means a cylinder device that converts energy of compressed air supplied at a high speed into mechanical reciprocating linear motion. Specifically, under the action of compressed air, the piston and rod reciprocate while moving an article supported at one end thereof. Generally, such a pneumatic cylinder performs the same function both when the piston rod advances and when it retreats, and both the advance and retreat are performed by compressed air separately injected and supplied.

Therefore, not only does the cylinder operation unnecessarily consume a large amount of compressed air, but also the design of the cylinder device becomes complicated. In addition, the function of the cylinder cannot be diversified and expanded.

In order to solve these problems, the present inventors proposed a "cylinder group" of korean patent No. 10-1634262. The pneumatic cylinder group adopts a single air injection opening, the piston rod moves under the action of compressed air, but the resetting is completed by a spring. In addition, the moving speed of the piston rod is limited to a certain level by a check valve.

However, the cylinder group has major problems in that:

firstly, when the operation is stopped, the time for recovering the original state is greatly delayed due to residual compressed air remained in the device;

second, it is difficult to adjust and control the moving speed of the piston and the piston rod to a desired level as necessary.

An object of the present invention is to provide a cylinder group capable of quickly returning to its original state by quickly discharging residual compressed air remaining therein, and at the same time, capable of easily adjusting and controlling the moving speed of a piston and a piston rod to a desired level.

Means for solving the problems

The cylinder group of the invention includes: an injection port formed on the lower surface of the block-shaped body; a control part including a switch device disposed on the main body and allowing the compressed air to be supplied through the injection port; a cylinder part arranged on the back of the main body, wherein the cylinder part is provided with a piston and a rod which run by means of compressed air passing through the control part; a valve part which is arranged in front of the main body, is communicated with the cylinder part and adjusts the moving speed of the piston by adjusting the exhaust speed of the inner space of the valve part; a discharge portion provided at a front side of the main body to discharge compressed air inside the main body to the outside, the cylinder group being characterized in that,

the cylinder group further includes: and a release part which is arranged at the other side of the front surface of the main body, and discharges the compressed air in the cylinder part while cutting off the supply of the injected compressed air, so as to rapidly reset the cylinder part.

The valve portion is a two-stage air control valve including: and a check valve and a screw valve arranged in series inside a discharge hole communicating with an inner space of the cylinder part.

The check valve includes: a 1 st body fixed on the inner wall of the discharge hole, provided with an air hole in the center and a plurality of suction holes on the periphery; a flexible check plate fixed to an end of the air hole to open and close the suction hole,

the screw valve includes: a 2 nd body fixed in such a manner that a passage is formed between the body and an inner wall of the discharge hole; and an adjusting screw provided at the center of the 2 nd body, an end of the adjusting screw interfering with the air hole to control a flow rate.

ADVANTAGEOUS EFFECTS OF INVENTION

According to the cylinder group of the present invention, when the operation is stopped, the residual compressed air remaining in the main body and the cylinder is quickly discharged to the outside, and the piston and the rod can be quickly returned to their original positions. Further, the valve portion is an air valve including a check valve and a screw valve arranged in series, and since the flow rate can be controlled in two stages by the check plate and the screw, the moving speed of the piston and the rod can be easily adjusted to a desired level.

The cylinder group according to the present invention is denoted by the symbol "100" in the respective drawings.

The cylinder group 100 of the present invention includes: a reinforced plastic block-type body 10; a compressed air injection port 11 formed and installed inside the body 10 by machining; a control unit (20); a cylinder portion 30; a valve portion 40; a discharge portion 50; and a release section 60. The injection port 11 is formed in front of the lower surface of the body 10. Here, the compressed air injection port 11 is formed singly.

The control unit 20 includes: and a switching device 21 provided on the upper surface of the main body 10 to allow the supply of the compressed air through the injection port 11. Specifically, a 1 st installation groove 22 is provided in an upper side of the injection port 11 in a longitudinal direction, and then the elastic spring 23 and the opening and closing device 21 are sequentially inserted into the 1 st installation groove 22 to constitute the control part 20. Here, the switching device 21 includes: a bobbin case 24 fixed to the inner wall of the 1 st installation groove 22; and a 1 st bobbin 25 which is lifted and lowered in the bobbin case 24. In this case, the 1 st spool 25 has its lower end in contact with the upper end of the spring 23.

In addition, the spool cover 24 includes: a 1 st path 26a and a 2 nd path 26b formed to penetrate the upper and lower sides thereof in the lateral direction. The 1 st spool 25 includes: and a 3 rd path 26c formed outside the 1 st bobbin and communicating the 1 st path 26a and the 2 nd path 26b with each other when descending.

The cylinder portion 30 includes: a piston 31 and a rod 32 provided on the rear surface of the main body 10 and operated by compressed air passing through the control part 20; and an insertion cylinder 33 in which the elements 31 and 32 are built. Specifically, a 2 nd installation groove 34 is formed in the body 10 in a transverse direction, and then an elastic spring 36, a cylinder 33 and an end cap 35 are installed along one side thereof, and a piston 31 and a rod 32 are inserted into the cylinder 33, thereby constituting a cylinder part 30. In this case, the spring 36 is disposed in front of the piston 31 (see fig. 7) or concentrically provided on the outer periphery of the rod 32 (see fig. 8 and 9).

Here, one end of the rod 32 is coupled to the piston 31, and the other end thereof protrudes to the outside of the cap 35 and the body 10. Therefore, a holding mechanism P such as a jig for inspecting electronic components is coupled to the projecting end portion thereof.

The valve portion 40 is a kind of adjusting means, which is provided in front of the body 10, communicates with the cylinder portion 30, and adjusts the exhaust speed of the internal space S of the cylinder portion 30, thereby adjusting the moving speed of the piston 31 and the rod 32. The valve part is a two-stage air control valve including a check valve 42 and a screw valve 43, and the check valve 42 and the screw valve 43 are arranged in series inside the front discharge hole 41 of the 2 nd installation groove 34 communicating with the inner space S of the cylinder part 30. That is, the internal space S is exhausted through the check valve 42 and the screw valve 43 in this order.

Specifically, the check valve 42 includes: a 1 st body 45 fixed to an inner wall of the discharge hole 41, having a central air hole 44a formed therein, and having a plurality of suction holes 44b formed around the air hole 44 a; and a flexible rubber check plate 46 fixed to an end of the air hole 44a and opening/closing the suction hole 44 b. In addition, the screw valve 43 includes: a 2 nd body 47 fixed in such a manner as to form a passage 44c with the inner wall of the discharge hole 41; and an adjusting screw 48 disposed at the center of the 2 nd body 47 and having an end portion close to or spaced apart from the air hole 44a to control the flow rate.

With this valve structure, the internal air of the cylinder portion 30 is exhausted through the air hole 44a and the passage 44c at a restricted and regulated speed. The external air can be rapidly sucked through the passage 44c and the air hole 44a and the suction hole 44 b.

Next, a connection structure for a flow path of compressed air formed on the main body 10 of the cylinder group 100 will be described. After the 1 st channel 12 connected to the injection port 11 is formed, the 1 st channel 12 is connected to the 2 nd channel 13, and then the 2 nd channel 13 is connected to the 4 th mounting groove 61 of the release portion 60, the 3 rd channel 14 is connected between the 4 th mounting groove 61 and the 1 st mounting groove 22, and the 4 th channel 15 is connected between the 1 st mounting groove 22 and the 3 rd mounting groove 51 of the discharge portion 50.

In addition, a 5 th channel 16 is connected along the rear of the 1 st installation groove 22, a 6 th channel 17 is connected to the rear of the 5 th channel 16, and 7 th channels 18 are connected to both sides of the 6 th channel 17. The 7 th channel 18 is connected between the end cover 35 of the cylinder part 30 and the piston 31, and the 8 th channel 19 is connected between the 6 th channel 17 and the 2 nd mounting groove 34 of the cylinder part 30.

The discharge part 50 is provided at a front side of the main body 10, and discharges compressed air inside the main body 10 to the outside. Specifically, a 3 rd installation groove 51 is formed at one side of the cylinder part 30, the 8 th passage 19 is connected to the rear of the 3 rd installation groove 51, and an air discharge hole 52 is formed at a side thereof. In addition, the 3 rd installation groove 51 is connected with the 1 st installation groove 22 through the 4 th passage 15, and is connected with the 2 nd installation groove 34 through the 6 th passage 17, the 7 th passage 18 and the 8 th passage 19.

In addition, the discharge portion 50 includes: an insertion cylinder 53 insertion-mounted in the 3 rd installation groove 51; an exhaust (exhaust) piston 54 disposed inside the cylinder 53 and opening and closing an inlet of the 8 th passage 19 and the discharge hole 52; and an elastic spring 55 supporting the piston 54. A final stopper 56 is fastened to the front of the 3 rd installation groove 51, and the stopper 56 is spaced apart from the piston 54.

The release portion 60 is disposed on the other side of the front surface of the body 10, and serves to rapidly return the cylinder portion 30 by discharging the compressed air in the cylinder portion 30 while cutting off the supply of the injected compressed air. The releasing section includes: a switch device for cutting off the compressed air supply.

Specifically, a 4 th mounting groove 61 is formed in the other side of the cylinder part 30 in the lateral direction, and then an elastic spring 62 is inserted into the 4 th mounting groove 61 in order of the opening and closing means, thereby constituting a release part 60. Here, the switching device includes: a bobbin housing 63 fixed on the inner wall of the 4 th installation groove 61; a 2 nd spool 64 reciprocating right and left within the spool housing 63. In this case, the end of the 2 nd spool 64 is in elastic contact with the spring 62.

Here, the 4 th installation groove 61 is connected to the 1 st installation groove 22 of the control part 20 through the 3 rd passage 14, and is connected to the 1 st passage 12, the 2 nd passage 13, and the 3 rd passage 14 continuously extended from the injection port 11, and after passing through the 1 st installation groove 22 of the control part 20, is connected to the inside of the cylinder 33 of the cylinder part 30 through the 5 th passage 16, the 6 th passage 17, and the 7 th passage 18. In addition, the housing 63 includes: a 1 st channel 66a and a 2 nd channel 66b formed through the left and right sides thereof, respectively; a discharge hole 65 formed in connection with the inner space S of the cylinder 33. The 2 nd spool 64 includes: and a 3 rd flow path 66c formed outside the 2 nd spool and closing a connection between the 1 st flow path 66a and the 2 nd flow path 66b while opening a connection between the cylinder 33 and the 2 nd flow path 66b and the discharge hole 65 when pressurized.

That is, the connection between the 1 st passage 66a and the 2 nd passage 66b, which extend from the 3 rd passage 14 and supply the compressed air to the cylinder unit 30, is closed by the action and position of the release unit 60, and the drain hole 65 is opened. Therefore, all the compressed air in the main body 10 including the cylinder part 30 can be quickly discharged to the outside.

The cylinder block 100 of the present invention configured as described above is provided with a fastening nut portion on the upper side of the main body 10, and is used by being installed in a jig, a clamp, or the like. A mechanism P is fixed to an end of the rod 32 of the cylinder portion 30.

First, the compressed air supplied through the injection port 11 passes through the 1 st passage 12 and the 2 nd passage 13, then sequentially passes through the 1 st passage 66a to the 3 rd passage 66c to the 2 nd passage 66b to the 3 rd passage 14 to the 2 nd passage 26b to the 4 th passage 15, and then stands by in a state between the piston 54 of the injection and discharge portion 50 and the plug 56. In this case, the piston 54 moves in the direction of compressing the spring 62, so that the inlet of the 8 th passage 19 is blocked from the discharge hole 52.

In this state, if the spool 25 of the control section 20 is pressed, the spring 23 is compressed, and the spool 25 is lowered, and the 3 rd path 26c of the lowered spool 25 is switched from the state in which the 1 st path 26a and the 2 nd path 26b are blocked to the state in which they are communicated with each other. Therefore, the compressed air flows into the insertion cylinder 33 of the cylinder portion 30 through the 1 st passage 26a and the 5 th, 6 th and 7 th passages 16, 17 and 18.

The piston 31 starts moving forward under the influence of the pressure of the compressed air (see fig. 7 and 8). In this case, the air in the inner space S of the cylinder 33 is slowly discharged through the valve portion 40 while the spring 36 is compressed. Thereby, the piston 31 moves forward at a low speed together with the rod 32. In this case, the air in the internal space S passes through the central air hole 44a of the check valve 42 and is diffused by the end of the screw 48 of the screw valve 43, and then is discharged to the outside through the side surface channel 44c of the 2 nd body 47. The discharge speed and the moving speed of the piston 54 caused by the discharge speed are adjusted 1 time through the air hole 44a, and then the screw 48 is operated to have its end portion close to the air hole 44a or spaced apart from the air hole 44a, thereby completing the 2 nd adjustment.

As described above, when the advance of the piston 31 is completed, the mechanism P connected to the end of the rod 32 is pulled to perform a necessary operation, and when the operation is completed, the supply of the compressed air is cut off.

Then, the advanced piston 31 and the piston rod 32 are pushed backward by the repulsive force of the elastic spring 36 to return to the original positions. During the restoration, the outside air is sucked into the cylinder 33 through the valve portion 40 in the reverse direction. In this case, the check plate 46 starts to operate to open the plurality of suction holes 44b under the influence of the suction air. Therefore, the return to the home position is achieved at a very high speed compared to the above-described advancing movement. As described above, the moving speed of the piston rod 32 can be appropriately adjusted and controlled according to the purpose and need of the work.

At the same time, as the pressure of the compressed air charged between the piston 54 and the plug 56 of the discharge portion 50 becomes weak, the piston 54 moves forward by the repulsive force of the spring 55, and the inlet of the 8 th passage 19 sealed by the piston 54 and the discharge hole 52 are opened. Accordingly, the compressed air flowing into the cylinder part 30 passes through the 7 th passage 18, the 6 th passage 17, and the 8 th passage 19 in this order, and is then discharged to the outside through the discharge hole 52. Therefore, the piston 31 and the piston rod 32 of the cylinder portion 30 are retracted and restored to their original positions.

After the force of pressing the spool 25 of the control part 20 is removed, the spool 25 is restored to its original position by the repulsive force of the spring 23, and the 1 st path 26a and the 2 nd path 26b are cut off from each other. Thereby, the piston 31 and the rod 32 of the cylinder part 30 and the spool 25 of the control part 20 are all restored to the original states.

Further, the cylinder group 100 of the present invention may be returned to the original state by operating the release portion 60 to stop the operation individually. That is, the spool 64 is pressed in a state where the piston 31 and the rod 32 of the cylinder portion 30 are advanced by injecting the compressed air. Then, the spring 62 is compressed, and the spool 64 moves, and the connection between the 1 st flow path 66a and the 2 nd flow path 66b is cut off. Thereby, the compressed air flowing from the inlet 11 is completely cut off. On the other hand, the 2 nd flow path 66b and the 3 rd flow path 66c communicate with each other, and the 3 rd flow path 66c is connected to the drain hole 65.

In this case, the compressed air charged into the interior of the release portion 60, the 3 rd to 8 th passages 14 to 19, the discharge portion 50, the cylinder portion 30, etc., inside the body 10 is rapidly discharged through the discharge hole 65. Further, as the compressed air charged between the piston 54 and the plug 56 of the discharge portion 50 is discharged, the piston 54 is advanced forward by the repulsive force of the compressed spring 55, and the inlet of the 8 th passage 19 sealed by the piston 54 and the air discharge hole 52 are opened, thereby discharging the compressed air.

Thereby, all the compressed air charged into the main body 10 is rapidly discharged through the air discharge holes 52, 65 of both sides without a residue. Then, the piston 31 and the rod 32 are retracted by the repulsive force of the spring 36 inserted into the cylinder 33, and the original state is restored. This operation greatly contributes to suspending individually selected operations as needed during combined use of a plurality of cylinder groups 100.
