[0002] It is known that a forward-moving outer gantry mainly consists of a left channel steel assembly, a right channel steel assembly, a lower cross beam, a support shaft, and an upper cross beam. Among them, the length of the channel steel ranges from 1200 mm to 4900 mm, and high gantries are mainly used. The higher the gantry, the higher the product precision requirements to avoid gantry shaking.

[0003] However, in the existing technology, the forward-moving outer gantry mold uses the blank surface on the outer surface of the channel steel flange as the height positioning reference, which is applicable to the case of a large quantity, but the actual positioning accuracy is low; the corresponding clamping cylinder and the opening positioning component are both fixed types, and interference often occurs for channel steels of different lengths, and the compatibility is not strong; the opening positioning component of the gantry and the positioning structure related to the support shaft both require manual operation, the operation is cumbersome and laborious, and improvement is needed; therefore, a positioning device and a positioning method for a forward-moving outer gantry are proposed as a further improvement.

[0010] The channel steel positioning cylinder assembly, the channel steel clamping cylinder assembly, and the height initial support assembly are all fixedly installed on the upper surface of the clamping bottom plate.

[0013] Further, the channel steel clamping cylinder assembly includes: clamping cylinder brackets, a second cylinder, clamping sliders, and limit guide rails. The two clamping cylinder brackets are fixedly installed at both ends of the upper surface of the clamping bottom plate.

[0019] A positioning method for a forward-moving outer gantry positioning device is as follows:

[0020] Step 1: First, adjust the channel steel end positioning assembly in the positioning device main body, and select a suitable positioning plate to achieve the required channel steel end positioning dimension;

[0021] Step 2: Select a suitable channel steel positioning assembly and install it. Control the positioning rotor in the channel steel positioning cylinder assembly to rotate through the first cylinder until it fits with the limit block, and complete the adjustment of the positioning device main body;

[0022] Step 3: Lift and transport the channel steel assembly on one side of the forward-moving outer gantry to the roller of the height initial support assembly of the positioning device main body. The roller rolls to push the channel steel assembly to fit with the positioning plate of the channel steel end positioning assembly;

[0023] Step 4: After controlling the clamping slider to extend through the second cylinder of the channel steel clamping cylinder assembly, the top of the clamping slider presses against the channel steel assembly and causes it to move. The inner surface of the channel steel wing plate is lifted by the pressing force on the side of the channel steel and fits with the height positioning screw. At the same time, when it is pushed to the web surface and fits with the spacing positioning screw, the positioning and clamping of the channel steel are completed;

[0024] Step 5: Place the support shaft into the positioning sleeve of the support shaft positioning assembly, and control the positioning sleeve to extend through the third cylinder to push the support shaft to fit with the channel steel, and complete the positioning of the support shaft;

[0027] Step 8: Carry the upper beam and the lower beam onto the channel steel to complete the positioning of the forward-moving outer gantry.

[0028] Further, in the eighth step: after positioning, perform demolding operation: the third cylinder retracts to complete the demolding of the support shaft positioning assembly; the second cylinder retracts to complete the demolding of the channel steel clamping cylinder assembly, and the first cylinder extends to drive the positioning rotating body to rotate by a certain angle, so that the channel steel positioning assembly is completely separated from the channel steel. At this time, the channel steel falls onto the height initial support assembly to complete the demolding.

[0029] Technical effects and advantages of the present invention:

[0030] 1. Compared with the prior art, by setting the channel steel positioning cylinder assembly and the channel steel clamping cylinder assembly, since the channel steel positioning cylinder assembly drives the rotation of the channel steel positioning rotating body assembly through the expansion and contraction of the first cylinder to replace manual rotation, the labor intensity is reduced and the efficiency is improved; while the channel steel clamping cylinder assembly drives the clamping slider to move on the limit guide rail through the expansion and contraction of the second cylinder, and then presses the channel steel tightly; the height positioning screw and the opening positioning screw of the channel steel positioning assembly are used to realize height and opening positioning; therefore, the inner processing surface of the channel steel flange is used as the height positioning reference, the inner processing surface of the web is used as the width positioning reference, and the lower end of the channel steel is used as the length direction positioning reference, with high positioning accuracy; and the air circuit controls the relevant positioning components, without manual operation, reducing the labor intensity and improving the efficiency, and different products can be positioned by changing different channel steel positioning components.

[0031] 2. Compared with the prior art, by setting the height initial support assembly, since the inner surface of the channel steel flange and the inner side of the web are selected as the positioning references, if the channel steel is directly placed on the height positioning screw when positioning and clamping the channel steel, not only the operation efficiency is low, but also only a few points of the screw support the channel steel and the center of gravity is unstable. Therefore, during work, the channel steel is first placed on the roller of the height initial support assembly, which is convenient for operation and the workpiece is stable. At this time, the height of the inner surface of the channel steel flange is 5 mm lower than the height positioning screw. The second cylinder of the channel steel clamping cylinder assembly presses the channel steel tightly to move the channel steel, so that the inner surface of the flange and the inner side of the web are attached to the channel steel positioning assembly to complete its positioning.

[0032] 3. Compared with the prior art, by setting the clamping and positioning assembly and the long guide rail, the long guide rail is used to ensure that at least four groups of clamping and positioning assemblies can move freely to avoid interference and meet the assembly requirements of different length series gantries; with strong compatibility, the four groups of clamping and positioning assemblies can all move on the track to achieve compatibility with products of different length systems.

[0033] 4. Compared with the prior art, by setting the clamping slider, since the height positions of different channel steels are different and the center deviation of the channel steel is large, when the clamping cylinder clamps the channel steel to ensure stability and no eccentricity, holes with different heights are processed on the clamping slider, and the pressing heads are placed in the holes with different heights to clamp channel steels with different heights.

[0086] A positioning method for a forward-moving outer gantry positioning device is as follows:

[0087] Step 1: First, adjust the channel steel end positioning assembly 14 in the positioning device main body 1, and select a suitable positioning plate 142 to achieve the required channel steel end positioning dimension.

[0088] Step 2: Select a suitable channel steel positioning assembly 123 and install it.

At the same time, when it is pushed until the web surface fits with the spacing positioning screw 1234, the positioning and clamping of the channel steel are completed;

[0091] Step 5: Place the support shaft into the positioning sleeve 154 of the support shaft positioning assembly 15. Control the positioning sleeve 154 to extend through the third cylinder 153, and push the support shaft until it fits with the channel steel to complete the positioning of the support shaft;

[0092] Step 6: Sequentially repeat Step 3 and Step 4 to complete the positioning of the channel steel assembly on the other side;

[0093] Step 7: Repeat Step 5 to complete the positioning of the other side of the support shaft;

[0094] Step 8: Carry the upper crossbeam and the lower crossbeam onto the channel steel to complete the positioning of the forward-moving outer gantry; after the positioning is completed, perform the demolding operation: retract the third cylinder 153 to complete the demolding of the support shaft positioning assembly 15; retract the second cylinder 1252 to complete the demolding of the channel steel clamping cylinder assembly 125. The extension of the first cylinder 1242 drives the positioning rotator 1222 to rotate to a certain angle, so that the channel steel positioning assembly 123 is completely separated from the channel steel. At this time, the channel steel falls onto the height initial support assembly 126 to complete the demolding.
