[0071] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the floating adjustment mechanism 20 is installed on the fixed plate 310. The propeller 240 is installed on the fixed plate 310, the sliding fastening plate 210 is slidably connected to the fastening plate slider 220, and is connected to the propeller 240. The propeller 240 is configured to drive the sliding fastening plate 210 to move along the preset direction of the fastening plate slider 220; the wedge-shaped fixed block includes an upper half 231 and a lower half 232 with an inclined contact surface, the upper half 231 is fixed on the quick-change module mounting plate 110, and the lower half 232 is fixed on the sliding fastening plate 210. By driving the sliding fastening plate 210 to move the lower half 232, the distance between the quick-change module mounting plate 110 and the sliding fastening plate 210 can be increased or decreased; the cone The first end of the tapered fastening pin 230 is fixed to the quick-change module mounting plate 110, and the opposite second end is located on the other side of the fixed plate 310; the tapered fastening pin 230 fixing sleeve is installed on one side of the fixed plate 310 close to the second end of the tapered fastening pin 230, and a tapered hole is provided inside the tapered fastening pin 230.

When the pusher 240 drives the sliding fastening plate 210 to move along the first direction Y toward the side of the closer pusher 240 through the driving rod, the overlapping area of ​​the inclined surface between the lower half 232 and the upper half 231 of the wedge-shaped fixing block is reduced, so that the height of the lower half 232 and the upper half 231 abutting together in the second direction Z is reduced, and then the distance between the sliding fastening plate 210 and the quick-change module mounting plate 110 is reduced, so that the abutment force between the tapered hole and the tapered fastening pin 230 is reduced, thereby realizing floating adjustment of this part.

The pressing wheel 4354 is abutted against the inclined surface on the pressing connecting block 4351; by executing the guide mother block 431 to move toward one side along the third direction X, the pressing wheel 4354 is driven to move horizontally, the position of the pressing wheel 4354 on the inclined surface changes, and the height of the inclined surface increases, so that the pressing connecting block 4351 moves toward the side of the external support execution block 433, and the elastic restoring force of the elastic member 4353 makes the external support execution block move toward the side away from the pressing connecting block 4351, and the three external support execution blocks 433 simultaneously protrude outward (outer circle) to achieve overall external support; by executing the guide mother block 431 to move toward the other side in the opposite direction X, the pressing wheel 4354 is driven to move horizontally, the position of the pressing wheel 4354 on the inclined surface changes, and the height of the inclined surface decreases, so that the pressing connecting block 4351 moves toward the side away from the external support execution block 433, and the external support execution block moves toward the side close to the pressing connecting block 4351 by compressing the elastic member 4353 to achieve retraction.

[0079] Among them, the elastic member 4353 can be a spring, and the spring is sleeved on the connecting core shaft 4352. Two connecting core shafts 4352 can be provided, located on both sides of the pressing connecting block 4351 and connected to the outer support execution block 433, and both connecting core shafts 4352 can be provided with springs.

[0080] Among them, such as Figure 5 As shown, there are three groups of outer support components 430 , which are distributed at an angle of 120° on the annular tooling fixing motherboard 340 .

[0082] Among them, the clamping external support assembly 430 also includes: a connecting block 4361, a slide groove 4362 is provided on the connecting block 4361, and two external support execution blocks 433 are mounted on the connecting block 4361; by executing the guide mother block 431 to move toward one side along the third direction X, the sliding core shaft 4363 is driven to move horizontally, and the sliding core shaft 4363 is located at the top of the slide groove 4362. At this time, it is equivalent to pushing the connecting block 4361 downward, thereby driving the clamping execution block 432 to move downward (inner circle), and the three clamping execution blocks 432 move downward at the same time to realize the overall inner embrace.

[0083] The external support execution block 433 may be an external support nylon block, and the clamping execution block 432 may also be a clamping nylon block.

[0084] Among them, the clamping and external supporting mechanism 40 is compactly designed, and the clamping and external supporting are driven by a unified mechanism, which can not only accurately position the device through the wheel seat, but also ensure the accurate positioning of the pushing and setting process, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the set while accurately positioning.

[0087] Among them, such as Figure 8 As shown, the clamping driver 520 and the clamping block 530 can be provided in two groups, and are symmetrically arranged at the position of the clamping mounting plate 510.

[0088] The clamping block 530 can be a high temperature resistant nylon block. The end of the clamping mechanism 50 is equipped with a high temperature resistant rubber block, which can clamp the workpiece without damaging the workpiece surface.

The push and pressure-maintaining mechanism, through the cylinder's push, achieves push installation and pressure-maintaining positioning of the mounting element (seal ring 70).
