After the pull pin 17 on the tray 16 of the supporting fixture 20 is inserted into the limit groove 4, the connector 2 is connected to the pipeline for conveying the pressure medium from the outside. The pressure medium can be air pressure or hydraulic oil. By adding air pressure and hydraulic control to release, energy and pipeline maintenance can be saved. After the medium flows into the inside of the connector 2, the driving component will push the positioning component to move. After the positioning component moves, the position of the pull pin 17 will be limited, and then the position of the tray 16 can be positioned, which is convenient for quickly positioning the position of the tray 16. When the external conveying equipment retracts the pressure medium, the positioning component no longer applies pressure to the pull pin 17. The positioning component will be reset through the reset component, and then the tray 16 and the pull pin 17 can be disassembled, which is convenient for disassembly and replacement of the fixture 20.
[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, the positioning component includes a strip groove 6 and a steel ball 7. The strip groove 6 is fixedly installed inside the movable groove 5, and the steel ball 7 is arranged inside the strip groove 6. The steel ball 7 engages with the groove 18 on the rivet 17. After one side of the steel ball 7 moves into the groove 18, the position of the rivet 17 will be positioned.
[0028] like Figure 4 As shown, the driving assembly includes a movable plate 8, a push rod 9, a piston groove 12 and a piston block 13. The movable plate 8 is arranged inside the movable groove 5.

After the pressure medium enters the piston groove 12, it will push the piston block 13 to move. When the piston block 13 moves, it will push the movable plate 8 to move. When the movable plate 8 moves, it will push the push rod 9 to move. The movement of the push rod 9 will push the steel ball 7 to move.

The guide rod 10 is fixedly installed inside the movable groove 5, and the reset spring 11 is arranged around the guide rod 10, and one end of the reset spring 11 is movably connected to the inner wall of the movable groove 5. When the pressure medium flows back, the movable plate 8 is no longer pressurized, and the reset spring 11 is reset, which will push the movable plate 8 to move, and the movement of the movable plate 8 will drive the push rod 9 to move.
[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, a diverter tube 15 is provided inside the chuck 3, and the diverter tube 15 is connected to the connector 2. A delivery tube 14 corresponding to the piston groove 12 is connected to the diverter tube 15, and the other end of the delivery tube 14 is connected to the piston groove 12. The pressure medium will flow into the delivery tube 14 through the diverter tube 15, and the pressure medium will flow into the delivery tube 14 through the diverter tube 15, and the pressure medium will flow into the piston groove 12 through the delivery tube 14.
[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, a groove 18 is provided on the pull nail 17. The pull nail 17 contacts the steel ball 7 through the groove 18, thereby positioning the position of the pull nail 17.
[0032] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a conductive tube 19 is provided inside the tray 16, and the two groups of conductive tubes 19 are electrically connected. A conductive column 21 corresponding to the conductive tube 19 is fixedly mounted on the substrate 1. A battery assembly 22 corresponding to the chuck 3 is fixedly mounted on the substrate 1, and the battery assembly 22 is electrically connected to the conductive column 21. A display light 23 is provided on the battery assembly 22, and the display light 23 is electrically connected to another group of conductive columns 21 that are symmetrically arranged. After placing the tray 16 on the chuck 3, the conductive column 21 is inserted into the conductive tube 19, and then through the conductive tube 19, the current inside the battery assembly 22 will flow into the display light 23, and then the display light 23 will light up. By observing the working status of the display light 23, it can be judged whether the position of the clamp 20 is installed in place.
[0033] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, a strain sensor 24 is provided in an array on the top of the chuck 3 , and the strain sensor 24 can be used to detect whether the position of the tray 16 installed on the chuck 3 is in place.
[0034] Working principle: First, a flexible zero-point positioning device based on gas-liquid hybrid power is used to support the pallet 16. The pallet 16 clamps the workpiece through the clamp 20, and then fixes the workpiece to be processed on the machine tool. The machine tool processing assembly works to process the workpiece. According to the workpieces of different sizes, different clamps 20 are replaced to clamp the workpiece for processing. After the pull pin 17 on the support clamp 20 pallet 16 is inserted into the limit groove 4, the connector 2 is connected to the pipeline for conveying pressure medium from the outside. The pressure medium can be air pressure or hydraulic oil. After the medium flows into the connector 2, the pressure medium pressure will flow into the diverter pipe 15 through the connector 2, and the pressure medium will flow into the delivery pipe 14 through the diverter pipe 15. The pressure medium will flow into the piston groove 12 through the delivery pipe 14. After the pressure medium enters the piston groove 12, it will push the piston block 13 to move. When the piston block 13 moves, it will push the movable plate 8 to move. When the movable plate 8 moves, it will push the push rod 9 to move, and the movement of the push rod 9 will push the steel ball 7 to move. The pull pin 17 cooperates with the groove 18 and contacts the steel ball 7, thereby positioning the pull pin 17, and then the position of the tray 16 can be positioned, which is convenient for quickly positioning the position of the tray 16. When the external conveying equipment retracts the pressure medium, the positioning component no longer applies pressure to the pull pin 17, and the reset spring 11 resets, which will push the movable plate 8 to move. The movement of the movable plate 8 will drive the push rod 9 to move, and then no longer apply pressure to the steel ball 7, and then the tray 16 and the pull pin 17 can be removed, which is convenient for disassembly and replacement of the clamp 20. After placing the tray 16 on the chuck 3, the conductive column 21 is inserted into the conductive cylinder 19, and then through the conductive cylinder 19, the current inside the battery assembly 22 will flow into the display light 23, and then the display light 23 will light up. By observing the working status of the display light 23, it can be judged whether the position of the clamp 20 is installed in place.
