[0031] A feeding runway 3, the feeding runway 3 is arranged in the middle of the frame 1, the feeding runway 3 comprises a sliding table 31, a runway housing 32, a ball screw 33, and a driving motor 34, the ball screw 33 is arranged in the runway housing 32, the sliding table 31 is arranged above the runway housing 32, the middle part below the sliding table 31 is drivingly connected to the ball screw 33, the end of the ball screw 33 is connected to the driving motor 34, and one end of the feeding runway 32 is arranged between the cutting tools 3;

[0032] The jig 4 includes a jig main board 41 and jig modules 42. The jig modules 42 are evenly distributed in a square array above the jig main board 41. The jig modules 42 are semi-conical. The narrow ends of the jig modules 42 are away from each other. A transverse avoidance groove 411 is provided at the end of each jig module 42 on the jig main board 41. The jig 4 is arranged on the sliding table 31.

[0033] The pressing device 5 is arranged on the frame 1 above the cutting tool 2, and the pressing device 5 includes a mounting frame 51, a driving cylinder 52, a push plate 53, and a hydraulic rod 54. The driving cylinder 52 is vertically arranged in the mounting frame 51, and the output end of the driving cylinder 52 extends downward from the mounting frame 51. The push plate 53 is connected to the output end of the driving cylinder 52, and the hydraulic rod 54 is vertically arranged below the push plate 53.

[0034] Specifically, the cutting tools 2 on both sides are first in an open state, and the sliding table 31 is first at the end of the feed runway 3 away from the cutting tool 2. When in use, the aviation connector housing casting is placed on the fixture mainboard 41, and the aviation connector housing component corresponds to the fixture module 42. The shape of the fixture module 42 matches the shape of the inner wall of the aviation connector housing, so that the aviation connector housing can be stably placed on the fixture module 42, and the degree of thermal deformation of the casting can be judged according to the stability of the placement; the drive motor 24 works, rotates the ball screw 33 and drives the sliding table 31 to move toward the cutting tool 2 until the fixture 4 carries the aviation connector housing casting.

[0035] Embodiment 2:

[0036] The difference between Example 2 and Example 1 is that the movable base 21 includes a screw mechanism 211, a slide rail 212, and a slide 213. The screw mechanism 211 is arranged in parallel with the slide rail 212, and the slide 213 is arranged above the screw mechanism 211 and the slide rail 212.

[0038] Embodiment three:

[0039] The difference between the third embodiment and the first embodiment is that an adjustable indexing table 24 is connected below the movable base 21 .

[0040] Specifically, when processing different batches of aviation connector housing castings, the distortion of the aviation connector housing castings is detected by measuring fixtures, and then the height of the adjusting dividing table 24 is adjusted. The raising or lowering of the adjusting dividing table 24 will drive the cutting tool 2 to tilt, thereby adapting to the distortion of the current processing batch of castings and improving the processing accuracy.

[0041] Embodiment 4:

[0042] The difference between the fourth embodiment and the first embodiment is that two slide rails 35 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the ball screw 33 , and the two sides below the sliding platform 31 are slidably connected to the two slide rails 35 .

[0043] Specifically, the second slide rail 35 can bear the weight of the sliding platform 31 and the fixture 4 instead of the ball screw 34 , so as to prevent the ball screw 34 from bending under the load and causing the sliding platform 31 to be unable to slide on the ball screw 34 .

[0044] Embodiment five:

[0045] The difference between the fifth embodiment and the first embodiment is that a positioning hole 412 is provided in the middle of the outer side of the fixture module 42 on the fixture main board 41 .

[0046] Specifically, the positioning hole 412 can be used to avoid the connection protrusion on the side of the aviation connector housing, so that the aviation connector housing casting can be placed more stably on the fixture main board 41.

[0047] Embodiment six:

[0048] The difference between the sixth embodiment and the first embodiment is that ventilation grooves 421 are provided on the surfaces of both ends of the fixture module 42 along the circumferential direction.

[0049] Specifically, the vent groove 421 allows air to exist between the inner wall of the aviation connector shell and the fixture module 42, preventing the air between the aviation connector shell and the fixture module 42 from being exhausted, thereby making the aviation connector shell adsorbed on the fixture module 42 and difficult to remove.

[0050] Embodiment seven:

[0051] The difference between the seventh embodiment and the first embodiment is that an anti-slip end 55 is provided on the output end of the hydraulic rod 54 .

[0052] Specifically, the anti-slip end 55 can prevent the hydraulic rod 54 from sliding relative to the surface of the casting when fixing the casting, prevent the casting from slipping out from between the hydraulic rod 54 and the fixture module 42, and avoid leaving scratches on the surface of the casting when the casting is pressed.

[0053] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described herein, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any modification or supplement or replacement of the specific embodiments described by those skilled in the art shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
