Abstract
A device is used for separating an ejection workpiece from a stub bar, and includes a fixing element, a clamp, and a mechanism arm. The fixing element fixes the stub bar. The clamp clamps the ejection workpiece. The mechanism arm connects the clamp and actuates the clamp to clamp the ejection workpiece and then rotates the clamp relative to the stub bar, such that the ejection workpiece is separated from the stub bar.
Claims12
A device for separating an ejection workpiece from a stub bar, comprising:
- a fixing element for fixing the stub bar,
- a clamp for clamping the ejection workpiece, and
- an arm mechanism connected to the clamp and configured to actuate the clamp to clamp the ejection workpiece and then rotate the clamp relative to the stub bar, so as to separate the ejection workpiece from the stub bar;
- wherein the clamp comprises a first clamping plate, a second clamping plate rotatably connected to the first clamping plate, and a locking assembly for locking the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate together when the ejection workpiece is clamped between the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate;
- the first clamping plate comprises a first clamping portion and a first connecting portion extending from the first clamping portion, the second clamping plate comprises a second clamping portion and a second connecting portion extending from the second clamping portion, the second connecting portion is rotatably connected to the first connecting portion, and the first clamping portion and the second clamping portion cooperate to clamp the ejection workpiece therebetween;
- the first clamping plate comprises a handle extending from the first connecting portion and away from the first clamping portion, the arm mechanism comprises a first actuating portion, a second actuating portion, and a controller, the first actuating portion is configured for controlling the clamp to open or to close, the second actuating portion is connected to the handle, thus to hold the clamp, the second actuating portion is configured for rotating the clamp relative to the stub bar, and the controller is configured for controlling the action of the first actuating portion and the second actuating portion;
- the second connecting portion is capable of rotating with respect to the first connecting portion in a first rotation direction, the second actuating portion is configured for rotating the clamp relative to the stub bar in a second rotation direction, and the first rotation direction is different from the second rotation direction, the first rotation direction and the second rotation direction are in two different planes perpendicular to each other.
