[0036] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following drawings. Therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined or explained in subsequent drawings. At the same time, in the description of the present invention, directional terms and order terms are only used to distinguish the description and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a shuttle trolley type floating positioning mechanism of the present invention includes a floating positioning trolley 1, a trolley positioning frame 2 and a quick-change tooling 23. The floating positioning trolley 1 is closely connected to the side of the trolley positioning frame 2, and the quick-change tooling 23 moved by an operating robot or a truss manipulator can be placed on the floating positioning trolley 1. Several groups of concave slots are evenly distributed on the upper end surface of the floating positioning trolley 1, which is docked and fixed with the quick-change tooling 23 through the several groups of concave slots, thereby improving the placement stability of the quick-change tooling 23.

[0038] According to the technical solution of the present invention, Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the floating positioning trolley 1 is assembled from a trolley positioning floating frame 15, a trolley lifting frame 4 and a trolley frame 14, wherein the trolley positioning floating frame 15 is located at the top and is fitted on the trolley lifting frame 4 through an I-shaped floating positioning pin 7 and a coarse positioning pin 16. The trolley lifting frame 4 is fixed to the trolley frame 14 by fastening screws, and a handwheel 24 is installed on one side of the trolley lifting frame 4. The trolley positioning floating frame 15 is provided with holes 3 near the four corners. , hole 17, hole 3, hole 18 and hole 4, 19. Pin 11, pin 20, pin 3, 21 and pin 4, 22 corresponding to hole 13, hole 217, hole 3, 18 and hole 4, 19 are distributed on the trolley positioning frame 2. After the operator rotates and lifts the floating positioning trolley 1 through the hand wheel 24, pushes it to the inside and fixes it tightly, and then manually rotates the hand wheel 24 in the opposite direction to match hole 13, hole 217, hole 3, 18 and hole 4, 19 with pin 11, pin 20, pin 3, 21 and pin 4, 22 one by one.

[0039] Preferably, if Figures 5 to 16 As shown, in the above structure: the connection between the hole 13 and the trolley positioning floating frame 15 is provided with a docking bushing, and two groups of limit blocks 13 are respectively provided on both sides. The two groups of limit blocks 13 are connected to the trolley lifting frame 4 by fastening screws. The upper end of the I-shaped floating positioning pin 7 is provided with a large washer 8. The I-shaped floating positioning pin 7 is installed on the trolley positioning floating frame 15 through the first hexagon socket head screw 9, and the I-shaped floating positioning pin 7 is further positioned and fixed through the positioning bushing 6, and its bottom The lifting brake block 5 is installed on the trolley positioning floating frame 15 through the second hexagon socket head screw 10. The lifting brake block 5 can prevent the trolley positioning floating frame 15 from being disengaged from the trolley lifting frame 4. The pin 11 is fixed to the trolley positioning frame 2 through the third hexagon socket head screw 12. When the trolley positioning floating frame 15 descends to the trolley positioning frame 2, the docking bushings provided on the pin 10 and the hole 1 3 are relative to each other, the apertures of the two are equal and the center axes coincide with each other, so the hole 1 3 and the pin 10 complete the docking assembly.

[0040] Preferably, the hole 1 3 and the hole 2 17 are set as precision holes, the hole 3 18 and the hole 4 19 are set as through holes; the pin 1 11 and the pin 2 20 are set as precision size pins, and the pin 3 21 and the pin 4 22 are set as through-hole pins, so as to ensure that the four groups of hole-pin structures are accurately matched.

[0041] like Figure 11 、 Figure 13 and Figure 16As shown, in specific application, when the trolley positioning floating frame 15 is lifted and close to the inner side of the trolley positioning frame 2, the trolley positioning floating frame 15 is ready to be lowered, and the trolley positioning floating frame is lowered to the process of matching the hole 3 and the pin 11. At the same time, the trolley positioning floating frame will be temporarily stuck due to the precise matching between the hole 3 and the pin 11. The operator needs to rotate the handwheel 24 to continue to lower the trolley lifting frame 4, so that the I-shaped floating positioning pin 7 is completely disengaged from the positioning bushing 6 until it moves to the I-shaped At the slightly thinner part in the middle of the floating positioning pin 7, the trolley positioning floating frame 15 of the floating positioning trolley 1 descends to the trolley positioning frame 3, that is, the limit block 13 is close to the side of the trolley positioning frame 2, and the pin 11 is also completely inserted into the hole 1 3 for stable cooperation, so that the hole 1 3, hole 2 17, hole 3 18 and hole 4 19 correspond to the pin 1 11, pin 2 20, pin 3 21 and pin 4 22. After completing the positioning, a robot or a truss manipulator with a quick-change tooling 23 can be used to accurately place it on the floating positioning trolley 1.

[0042] To sum up, the trolley positioning floating frame provided in the present invention is fitted on the trolley lifting frame through the I-shaped floating positioning pin and the coarse positioning pin, completing the adaptive connection between the four sets of hole pins, and automatically completing the floating positioning function, so as to accurately place the quick-change tooling; moreover, through the unhooking design of the I-shaped floating pin during the lifting process, from precise fit to loose fit and then to precise fit to other mechanisms, the operation of positioning the quick-change tooling is simplified, and it can also be applied to other floating positioning mechanisms with automated control.
