[0002] like Figure 2 The fuel main pipe shown is a crucial component of an aero-engine, and its machining quality directly impacts the engine's overall quality. This fuel main pipe is semi-circular; after bending it into shape, the end holes and shaped holes at both ends need to be machined. When the fuel main pipe is placed horizontally, several first-shaped holes are formed along its axial direction on its top surface, and second-shaped holes are formed radially on its outer side. Because this fuel main pipe is thin and easily deformed, the machining accuracy of its structural features is difficult to guarantee; after machining, each structural feature also needs to be inspected. Therefore, a positioning fixture for milling and calibrating the fuel main pipe is designed to ensure both machining quality and efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0039] The third inspection component 5 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the base plate 1, located on the outside of the fuel main pipe 6, and is used to inspect the second type hole of the fuel main pipe 6.

[0040] In this embodiment, after the fuel main pipe 6 is bent and formed, its two ends have a reserved allowance. At this time, the various structural features on it are machined. First, the bent fuel main pipe 6 is positioned and fixed by the positioning and straightening assembly 2, fixing it on a horizontal plane and ensuring that its curvature is consistent with the design parameters. Then, the fuel main pipe 6 and the positioning fixture are placed together on the machining equipment.
