[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tooling fixtures, and in particular to a concentric circle quick positioning tooling fixture. Background Art

[0002] In the sandblasting industry, circular turntables are widely used. The rotation of the turntable can drive the workpiece to move, so that the sandblasting gun can spray evenly onto all surfaces of the workpiece. The circular workpiece to be sandblasted is placed on the turntable. In order to ensure that the sandblasting gun can spray evenly on the workpiece, the workpiece needs to be concentric with the turntable, thereby avoiding the problem of uneven spraying due to the position offset of the workpiece.

[0003] The traditional way to keep a circular workpiece on a turntable concentrically fixed is to manually measure the four mutually perpendicular side lines to make sure they are consistent, then use tools to fix the workpiece to ensure that the workpiece does not move, and then proceed with the sandblasting. However, this manual measurement method requires a lot of time to find the concentricity, resulting in low efficiency. In addition, manual concentricity will introduce certain errors due to the accuracy of the measuring tool, the technical level of the measurer, and the measurement environment. This error will cause the fixed position of the workpiece on the turntable to be not completely concentric, thus affecting the uniform sandblasting of the workpiece. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to propose a concentric circle quick positioning fixture to solve the problem that when the existing circular workpiece is fixed on a turntable for sandblasting, it is necessary to manually find the concentricity, resulting in low efficiency and errors, which affects the uniform sandblasting of the workpiece.

[0030] 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.

[0031] Reference Figure 1-Figure 10 A concentric circle quick positioning fixture provided in this embodiment includes a fixed frame 1 arranged in a cross shape, and four positioning columns 3 are arranged on the fixed frame 1 at the ends of the directions thereof respectively. The four positioning columns 3 are connected by a driving mechanism 2 arranged in the fixed frame 1, and a movable column 4 arranged coaxially therewith is arranged on the positioning column 3. A mounting assembly 5 for connecting and positioning the fixture with a turntable is arranged on the rear side of the fixed frame 1. When any positioning column 3 is moved, the driving mechanism 2 can realize the synchronous contraction or expansion of the other three positioning columns 3.

[0032] In the present invention, the tooling fixture is installed and fixed on the turntable through the installation component 5 on the fixed frame 1, so that the center of the fixed frame 1 is kept concentric with the center of the turntable, and then one end of the circular workpiece that needs to be sandblasted is placed in the clamping space between the four positioning columns 3. At this time, any one of the positioning columns 3 is moved. Any one of the positioning columns 3 can drive the other three positioning columns 3 to move synchronously through the driving mechanism 2 during movement, which can ensure that the four positioning columns 3 always maintain concentricity with the turntable during the movement, and then ensure that the workpiece between the positioning columns 3 is kept concentric with the turntable, and ensure that the workpiece can be evenly sprayed during the processing. The movable column 4 set at the front end of the positioning column 3 can play a role of auxiliary clamping when the workpiece is long, thereby ensuring the stability of the workpiece on the fixture.

[0033] Specifically, Figure 2 , Figure 4-Figure 6As shown, the driving mechanism 2 includes a driving gear 21 rotatably mounted on the fixed frame 1 by a bearing, and a rack group arranged in the fixed frame 1 and arranged in a ring shape along the driving gear 21. A slide groove cooperating with the rack group to realize the movement of the rack group is arranged in the fixed frame 1. The rack group includes a pair of first transmission racks 22 arranged longitudinally, and a pair of second transmission racks 23 arranged transversely. The first transmission rack 22 is hollowed out and the second transmission rack 23 passes through the first transmission rack 22. The ends of the first transmission rack 22 and the second transmission rack 23 are both provided with a slide seat 24 located in the slot 11 through a mounting rod. The positioning column 3 is arranged on the slide seat 24, and a handle 25 is arranged on the rear side of the slide seat 24.

[0034] Among them, when moving any one of the positioning columns 3, the operator pulls the slide 24 through the handle 25 to move, so that the slide 24 slides in the slot 11, and then the positioning column 3 on the slide 24 moves. When the slide 24 moves, the slide 24 drives one of the racks to move. Since the first transmission rack 22 and the second transmission rack 23 are arranged in a ring shape on the driving gear 21, when one of the racks moves, it will drive the driving gear 21 meshing with it to rotate, and the rotation of the driving gear 21 will drive the movement of the other three racks meshing with it, thereby realizing the synchronous movement of the other three positioning columns 3 and the moving positioning column 3, ensuring that the four positioning columns 3 maintain accurate relative positions in space, which can greatly reduce the error accumulation caused by the movement of a single positioning column 3, and improve the positioning accuracy of the entire fixture;

[0035] It should be noted that, since the first transmission rack 22 is hollowed out and the second transmission rack 23 passes through the first transmission rack 22, when any one transmission rack moves, it will not interfere with the other racks. At the same time, a connecting shaft 211 passing through the bearing is provided on the driving gear 21, and an electromagnetic brake 212 connected to the fixed frame 1 is provided on the connecting shaft 211. The electromagnetic brake 212 is a braking structure for the entire fixture. When the positioning column 3 needs to be moved, the electromagnetic brake 212 is turned on. At this time, the driving mechanism 2 can be driven to rotate. After the positioning column 3 is moved to a good position and the workpiece to be sandblasted is clamped, the electromagnetic brake 212 is used to fix the connecting shaft 211 of the driving gear 21. At this time, the driving gear 21 cannot rotate, thereby ensuring the stability of the four positioning columns 3 so that the workpiece can be clamped and fixed.

[0036] Specifically, Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the rear end of the positioning column 3 is provided with a plug-in terminal 31 that passes through the sliding seat 24, and the plug-in terminal 31 is provided with a limit clamping strip 32 coaxially arranged therewith, and the sliding seat 24 is provided with a plug-in hole 241 that matches the plug-in terminal 31, and the plug-in terminal 31 is provided with a locking nut 34 that abuts against the sliding seat 24 through a threaded terminal 33, and the rear end of the movable column 4 is provided with a movable rod 41 that extends to the inside of the positioning column 3, and the movable rod 41 is provided with a plurality of positioning screw holes 42 along its length direction, and the positioning column 3 is provided with a positioning bolt 35 that matches the positioning screw hole 42.

[0037] When the workpiece to be clamped is long, the positioning bolt 35 on the positioning column 3 can be loosened to disengage the positioning screw hole 42 of the movable rod 41, and then the movable column 4 is moved to make the movable column 4 extend forward, and then the positioning bolt 35 is screwed into the positioning screw hole 42 at the corresponding position, so as to adjust the position of the movable column 4 at the front end of the positioning column 3, and then the longer workpiece can be clamped and fixed, ensuring the stability of the workpiece between the positioning columns 3. When the positioning column 3 needs to be disassembled, repaired or replaced, the locking nut 34 on the threaded end 33 is removed, and then the plug-in end 31 of the positioning column 3 is pulled out from the plug-in hole 241 of the slide seat 24, so as to realize convenient disassembly and assembly of the positioning column 3, and the limiting card strip 32 on the plug-in end 31 plays a limiting role. When the positioning column 3 is connected to the slide seat 24 through the plug-in end 31, the positioning column 3 can be prevented from rotating, thereby improving the stability and accuracy of the entire clamp.

[0038] It should be noted that if Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, a reinforcement component 36 is provided on one side of the positioning column 3 and the movable column 4 facing the axis of the fixed frame 1 through an installation groove, and the reinforcement component 36 includes a fixing sleeve 361 located in the installation groove, a connecting end 362 is sleeved on the fixing sleeve 361, and a top head 363 is provided on the connecting end 362, and a spring 364 is provided between the connecting end 362 and the fixing sleeve 361.

[0039] Among them, when the positioning column 3 is moved to clamp and fix the workpiece that needs sandblasting, the top head 363 of the reinforcement component 36 on the positioning column 3 first contacts the workpiece. Since the top head 363 is made of rubber and cooperates with the spring 364 in the fixing sleeve 361 to make the reinforcement component 36 have a buffering effect, when the positioning column 3 clamps the workpiece, it can avoid damage to the workpiece caused by excessive impact force when the positioning column 3 moves. At the same time, the buffering of the reinforcement component 36 can absorb the vibration force during workpiece processing, thereby improving the stability of the workpiece between the positioning columns 3.

[0040] Specifically, Figure 3 and Fig.10As shown, the mounting assembly 5 includes a mounting sleeve 51 connected to the fixed frame 1, and a mounting frame 52 is sleeved on the mounting sleeve 51. The mounting frame 52 is provided with a plurality of locking screw holes 54 arranged along its length direction, and the mounting sleeve 51 is provided with a locking bolt 53 that matches the locking screw hole 54.

[0041] When the clamp is installed on the turntable, the mounting frame 52 is connected to the turntable. When the distance between the clamp and the turntable needs to be adjusted, the locking bolt 53 on the mounting sleeve 51 can be loosened to disengage it from the locking screw hole 54 of the mounting frame 52. Then the mounting frame 52 and the mounting sleeve 51 can be moved relative to each other, thereby adjusting the overall length of the mounting assembly 5, so that the clamp can adjust the distance from the turntable according to actual usage needs, thereby improving the use effect of the clamp.

[0042] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
