[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "opening", "upper", "lower", "thickness", "top", "middle", "length", "inside", "all around" and the like indicating orientation or positional relationship are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the components or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0026] See also Figure 1-2 As shown, the present invention is a flange processing jig, including a base 1, five telescopic cylinders A10 are arranged at the center of the upper surface of the base 1, and a "cross"-shaped support plate 11 is connected through the five telescopic cylinders A10. Specifically, one telescopic cylinder A10 is connected to the center of the "cross"-shaped support plate 11, and at the same time, the remaining four telescopic cylinders A10 are respectively connected to the four ends of the "cross"-shaped support plate 11, and then the above-mentioned five telescopic cylinders A10 and the "cross"-shaped support plate 11 constitute a supporting mechanism for supporting the flange 100.

[0027] In order to facilitate the loading and unloading operations of the flange 100 during use, a first conveying mechanism and a second conveying mechanism are provided on both sides of the supporting mechanism for placing the flange 100 on its upper surface and controlling the flange 100 to move horizontally, and the first conveying mechanism and the second conveying mechanism have the same structure and conveying direction.

[0028] Specifically, the first conveying mechanism includes two conveying modules arranged in parallel on the base 1, and the conveying module includes a support beam 2 supported and connected by a plurality of pillars 21, and a plurality of rectangular grooves 20 are provided on the upper surface of the support beam 2 along its length direction, and a roller 22 is rotatably installed in the rectangular groove 20 through a rotating shaft, and the roller 22 is against the lower surface of the flange 100; and the axial direction of the roller 22 is perpendicular to the length direction of the support beam 2

[0029] Furthermore, when in use, the flange 100 to be processed is placed on the second conveying mechanism, and then the flange 100 is controlled to move on the second conveying mechanism until the flange 100 moves to the "cross"-shaped support plate 11; the telescopic cylinder A10 is controlled to extend until the lower surface of the flange 100 is detached from the roller 22, and then drilling is performed using the drilling mechanism located directly above the support mechanism; after the drilling is completed, the telescopic cylinder A10 is controlled to retract, and at this time the lower surface of the flange 100 is against the rollers 22 of the first conveying mechanism and the second conveying mechanism, and then the flange 100 can be controlled to move on the conveying surface composed of the first conveying mechanism and the second conveying mechanism.

[0030] It can be known that when drilling, the flange 100 placed on the "cross" shaped support plate 11 needs to be fixed, and an L-shaped rod 12 is respectively provided at both ends of the "cross" shaped support plate 11, and the connecting direction of the L-shaped rod 12 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the second conveying mechanism; Figure 3 At the same time, the top of the L-shaped rod 12 is located directly above the flange 100, and a telescopic cylinder B13 that is telescopic in the vertical direction is connected to the L-shaped rod 12, and the end of the telescopic cylinder B13 is connected to a plate A14 that is against the upper surface of the flange 100; the upper surface of the base 1 located at the other two opposite ends of the "cross"-shaped support plate 11 is respectively provided with a fixing mechanism for fixing the flange 100.

[0031] Two different fixing mechanism embodiments are provided below.

[0032] Method 1: Figure 1-3 As shown, the fixing mechanism includes a "U"-shaped frame 15 arranged on the upper surface of the base 1, and a telescopic cylinder C151 is arranged on the inner top side of the "U"-shaped frame 15. The end of the telescopic cylinder C151 is connected to a support plate B152 that is against the upper surface of the flange 100. After the flange 100 is placed on the "cross"-shaped support plate 11, the telescopic cylinder C151 and the telescopic cylinder B13 are controlled to extend, and the flange 100 is clamped and fixed by using the support plate B152, the support plate A14 and the "cross"-shaped support plate 11.

[0033] Method 1: Figure 5-6 As shown, the fixing mechanism includes a T-shaped slide rail 30 arranged on the upper surface of the base 1, and the length direction of the T-shaped slide rail 30 is parallel to the conveying direction of the second conveying mechanism; a protrusion 3 is arranged at the end of the T-shaped slide rail 30 away from the supporting mechanism, and a telescopic cylinder D31 is connected to one side of the protrusion 3, and the end of the telescopic cylinder D31 is connected to a movable seat 32 that moves along the length direction of the T-shaped slide rail 30, and an installation cavity 34 is arranged on the upper surface of the movable seat 32, and a telescopic cylinder E35 is arranged on the bottom side of the installation cavity 34, and a clamping arm 36 is connected to the end of the telescopic cylinder E35; The end of the tightening arm 36 is against a clamping block connected to and pressed on the upper surface of the flange 100. The bottom end of the movable seat 32 is provided with a T-shaped slot 33 that cooperates with the T-shaped slide rail 30. When in use, after the flange 100 is placed on the "cross"-shaped support plate 11, the telescopic cylinder E35 is controlled to extend, and then the telescopic cylinder D31 is controlled to extend until the clamping arm 36 is located above the flange 100. At this time, the telescopic cylinder E35 is controlled to contract to drive the clamping block to press on the upper surface of the flange 100. At this time, the fixing mechanism is used to clamp and fix the flange 100.

[0034] Based on the above, in order to facilitate the control of the fixing mechanism and the telescopic cylinder B13 to coordinate activities to clamp and fix the flange 100 during use, a detection mechanism is required to detect whether the flange 100 is accurately placed above the "cross"-shaped support plate 11 during use. The detection mechanism includes two detection modules respectively arranged on the inner wall of the L-shaped rod 12.

[0035] Specifically, Figure 4 The detection module includes a guide sleeve 120 arranged on the inner wall of the L-shaped rod 12, and a movable column 122 sliding along the inner wall of the guide sleeve 120 is connected to the guide sleeve 120 through a spring A121, and one end of the movable column 122 is arranged on a spherical surface 123 abutting against the outer peripheral side of the flange 100; a pressure sensor 124 is arranged on the inner wall of the L-shaped rod 12 in the guide sleeve 120, and a concave cavity 125 is arranged at the other end of the movable column 122, and a push rod 127 sliding along the inner wall of the concave cavity 125 is connected to the concave cavity 125 through a spring A126, and the end of the push rod 127 abuts against the pressure sensor 124; it can be known that when the two detection modules complete the maximum extension and contraction degree, that is, when the distance between the ends of the two detection modules is the largest, it indicates that the flange 100 has been accurately placed on the upper surface of the "cross"-shaped support plate 11.

[0036] The controller is connected to the pressure sensor 124, the telescopic cylinder E35, the telescopic cylinder D31, the telescopic cylinder B13, the telescopic cylinder A10, and the fixing mechanism.
