Description

[0002] As the core of modern manufacturing, CNC machining technology has been widely used in aerospace, automobile manufacturing, mold processing, precision instruments and other fields. In multi-face machining scenarios (such as six-sided milling of box-type parts, double-sided boring of plate-type parts, and multi-angle machining of irregular-shaped parts), the workpiece needs to be flipped and positioned between different machining surfaces.

[0003] Traditional machining methods employ a cyclical pattern of "single-sided machining, disassembly, flipping, reclamping, and machining on the other side." Auxiliary processes such as workpiece flipping, reclamping, and alignment take up considerable time, severely restricting equipment utilization. The flipping process requires full operator involvement, including steps such as releasing the workpiece, manually flipping, cleaning the reference surface, repositioning, and clamping. This not only involves high labor intensity but also increases the risk of operational errors due to fatigue. There is also a risk of injury from crushing or pinching heavy workpieces during flipping. Therefore, to solve this problem, it is essential to design a flipping fixture for CNC machining and its operation and usage method. Summary of the Invention

[0015] This invention provides a flipping fixture for CNC machining and its operation and usage method. It offers the following advantages: This flipping fixture for CNC machining and its usage method allow for better flipping and clamping. Through the coordinated work of the support component, rotating component, and limiting component, the fixture achieves precise positioning and rigid locking after flipping, effectively suppressing vibration and displacement during machining. This ensures high repeatability and positioning accuracy of the workpiece after flipping, meeting precision machining requirements. The compression spring designed in the base helps absorb vibrations generated during machine tool processing, reducing adverse effects on the workpiece surface quality. The flipping is driven by a rotary motor (e.g., precise rotation of 90° or 180°) and automatically locked using an electrically controlled telescopic rod, replacing the traditional manual flipping and fixing method. This significantly shortens the auxiliary time required for workpiece changing, facilitating continuous processing of batch workpieces, reducing the number of clamping operations, and automating workpiece flipping and locking. Operators only need to perform loading and unloading actions, eliminating the need for heavy manual labor. This not only significantly reduces the labor intensity of workers, but more importantly, it minimizes the contact between operators and moving parts of the machine tool, fundamentally avoiding safety accidents such as crushing and pinching injuries that may occur when flipping heavy or sharp workpieces. The structure is relatively simple and easy to use. Attached Figure Description

Two pairs of first triangular support blocks 34 are welded to the side of the connecting block 33 facing the bearing assembly 5. The driven part is located on the other vertical support plate 22.

The working surfaces of the first clamping plate 62 and the second clamping plate 65 are both hardened and can be equipped with different shaped jaws to adapt to various workpieces.

[0038] A flipping fixture for CNC machining and its operation and usage method include the following steps: S1, the fixture is fixed to the CNC machining machine tool worktable by the annular base 14 of the base 1 and the mounting structure, the bearing component 5 is in a horizontal initial position, and the clamping component 6 is in an open state, waiting to clamp the workpiece; S2, the workpiece to be processed is placed on the first clamping plate 62 of the bearing component 5 and pressed against the preset positioning reference; S3, the control program is started, the second clamping part of the clamping component 6 is activated, driving the second clamping plate 65 to move downward, and together with the first clamping plate 62, clamps the workpiece; S4, after confirming that the workpiece is clamped, the limiting component 4 automatically moves to lock the bearing component 5; S5, the machining program is started. The machine tool processes the first side of the workpiece. During the processing, the limiting component 4 remains locked. S6: After the first side is processed, the machine tool tool post retracts, and the limiting fixing block 43 of the limiting component 4 retracts first, releasing the lock. S7: The rotary motor 32 of the rotating component 3 starts and rotates precisely 180° to flip the workpiece to the other side. S8: After flipping to the correct position, the limiting component 4 moves again, and the limiting fixing block 43 inserts into the corresponding groove, completing a new round of positioning and locking. S9: After the workpiece is securely locked again, the machine tool begins processing the second side. S10: After all processing is completed, the clamping component 6 automatically releases, and the operator can safely remove the finished workpiece, completing one work cycle.

[0039] First, the fixture is fixed to the CNC machining center worktable via the base 1, and its level and center position are corrected. The equipment is started, and the second clamping part of the clamping assembly 6 opens. The operator places the workpiece to be processed on the bearing assembly 5, ensuring its reference surface is close to the first clamping plate 62. A command is issued via the CNC system or an external control button, and the electrically controlled telescopic rod 64 of the second clamping part actuates, driving the second clamping plate 65 to move downwards. Together with the first clamping plate 62, the workpiece is securely clamped. The clamping force can be set via system parameters to prevent workpiece deformation. After the workpiece is clamped, the electrically controlled telescopic rod 42 of the limiting assembly 4 moves, and the limiting fixing block 43 is inserted into the groove, locking the bearing assembly 5 in its initial horizontal position. The CNC machine tool begins machining the upper surface of the workpiece. After the upper surface is machined, the machine tool tool post returns to the safe position. The limiting component 4 first retracts the limiting fixing block 43 and releases the lock. Then, the rotary motor 32 of the rotating component 3 receives the instruction and rotates precisely 180°. The rotation angle can be programmed and controlled by the control system, and is not limited to 180°. This drives the bearing component 5 and the workpiece to complete the flipping. After the flipping is in place, the limiting component 4 moves again, and the limiting fixing block 43 inserts into the corresponding groove to achieve a new round of precise positioning and locking. The machine tool starts and processes the other side of the workpiece. After all the processing is completed, the clamping component 6 automatically releases, and the operator can remove the finished workpiece, completing one processing cycle.

[0040] Example 2: A zero-point positioning system is integrated on the first clamping plate 62 and the second clamping plate 65 of the clamping assembly 6. For example, standardized ball locking pins and positioning holes are used. This allows for quick replacement of dedicated fixture modules, greatly shortening the preparation time for workpiece clamping. At the same time, a high-precision encoder can be connected to the rotary motor 32 and closed-loop control can be achieved with the CNC system to ensure that the repeatability of the flipping angle is stable within ±0.001°, meeting the requirements of ultra-precision machining.
