A third adjustment bolt 53 is screwed on the upper end surface of the connection plate 51, and the end of the third adjustment bolt 53 presses against the upper backing 52; A flip support 6 is provided at the lower part of the connection plate 51. The flip support 6 includes a rectangular base 61 fixedly connected to the bottom plate 1. A guide circle is formed on the right side edge of the upper end of the base 61. A limit guide wheel 63 abuts against the outer wall of the guide circle.

A longitudinal hinge shaft 62 is pivotally connected to the base 61 at the center of the guide circle, and the front end of the hinge shaft 62 is fixedly connected to the connection plate 51.
[0024] The rear end of the limit pin 64 abuts against the rear end surface of the base 61. The center distance from the upper end surface of the base 61 to the center of the limit pin 64 and the center distance from the right end surface of the base 61 to the center of the limit pin 64 can be used to realize the positioning of the upper positioning bracket 5 in the horizontal position and the vertical position. In the horizontal position, under the action of the gravity of the upper backing 52, the limit guide wheel 63 abuts against the side wall of the base 61; In the vertical position, also under the action of the gravity of the upper backing 52, in order to improve the positioning stability in the vertical position, a permanent magnet 65 can be fixedly connected to the lower part of the base 61, and the upper positioning bracket 5 is automatically flipped under the magnetic force of the permanent magnet 65.
[0025] The lower backing 45 is located below the upper backing 52. A transverse upper limit groove 521 is formed on the upper end surface of the upper backing 52.

[0027] Handles are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom plate 1; the whole plate can be moved by holding the handles.
[0028] The diameter of the upper support 72 on the positioning column 7 is smaller than the diameter of the lower support 71 .
[0029] A connecting bracket 9 is provided between the upper positioning bushings 8, and the connecting bracket 9 includes a trident-shaped central handle 91, and the ends of the three ends of the central handle 91 are respectively formed with D-shaped sockets, and a screw 92 with a D-shaped cross section is inserted into the socket, one end of the screw 92 is screwed into the upper positioning bushing 8, and the other end is sucked against a magnet block, and the magnet block is inserted and fixed at the bottom of the socket; an adjusting nut is screwed onto the screw 92, and the adjusting nut abuts against the upper positioning bushing 8;
[0030] During the assembly process of the turbocharger, it is necessary to take out and place the upper positioning bushings 8 from the positioning columns 7 one by one, which is rather troublesome, so a connecting bracket 9 is designed. The connecting bracket 9 can realize the whole taking out and placing of the upper positioning bushing 8, and its structure is movable, and the position of the slide seat on the chuck 4 can be changed. When the slide seat on the chuck 4 changes, the screw 92 can be separated from the magnet block, and then the screw 92 can be re-absorbed against the magnet block by loosening the adjusting nut and rotating the adjusting screw 92, and then the adjusting nut can be locked, and the adjustment is also very convenient.
[0031] Working principle: This structure is a positioning fixture for assisting the assembly of a turbocharger. The positioning fixture is provided with a positioning column 7 on the chuck 2. Positioning bushings of different sizes (lower positioning bushing 10 and upper positioning bushing 8) can be installed above and below the positioning column 7. The upper positioning bushing 8 is used to position the compressor casing, and the lower part of the lower positioning bushing 10 positions the turbine casing and the upper part positions the intermediate casing, so as to realize the centering of the compressor casing, the turbine casing and the turbine casing;
[0032] The lower support on the lower positioning bracket 4 is used to position the installation angle of the turbine housing, and the upper support 52 on the upper positioning bracket 5 is used to position the installation angle of the compressor housing. However, during actual assembly, the upper support 52 is located above the turbine housing, which will limit the turbine housing from being set on the chuck 2.
[0033] Therefore, the upper positioning bracket 5 is designed to have a flip structure, so that the upper backer 52 can be moved away from the top of the turbine shell. After the turbine shell is set, the upper positioning bracket 5 can be quickly positioned by flipping, and the position of the upper backer 52 does not need to be adjusted.
[0034] The embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention, but not to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art may modify the embodiments without violating the spirit and scope of the present invention, and therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be as set forth in the claims of the present invention.
