[0004] A munition processing and positioning device includes a positioning box and a positioning assembly. The positioning box has at least two positioning slots to accommodate at least two cylindrical shells. The positioning assembly includes a lifting cylinder, a lifting frame, and a flexible sleeve. The positioning cylinder is installed at one end of the positioning box, the lifting frame is installed on the lifting cylinder, and the flexible sleeve is installed on the lifting frame and aligned with the at least two positioning slots. The flexible sleeve is used to fit over the at least two cylindrical shells.

[0005] In one embodiment, each of the positioning slots includes an interconnected guide portion and a circular portion, the guide portion penetrating the side wall of the positioning box.

[0006] In one embodiment, the guide portion is rectangular and the width of the guide portion is equal to the diameter of the circular portion.

[0007] In one embodiment, the number of the at least two positioning slots is two, and the two positioning slots are arranged side by side.

[0008] In one embodiment, a first connecting groove and a second connecting groove are provided on the top surface of the positioning box, and the first connecting groove and the second connecting groove are arranged side by side.

[0009] In one embodiment, the first connecting groove connects the guide portion of the two positioning grooves, and the second connecting groove connects the circular portion of the two positioning grooves.

[0010] In one embodiment, the lifting frame includes a lifting rod and a crossbeam, the lifting rod being connected to the output shaft of the lifting cylinder, and one end of the crossbeam being vertically connected to the top of the lifting rod.

When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0020] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0021] This invention relates to a positioning device for ammunition processing. For example, the ammunition processing positioning device includes a positioning box and a positioning assembly. The positioning box has at least two positioning slots to accommodate at least two cylindrical shells. For example, the positioning assembly includes a lifting cylinder, a lifting frame, and a flexible sleeve. The positioning cylinder is mounted at one end of the positioning box, and the lifting frame is mounted on the lifting cylinder. For example, the flexible sleeve is mounted on the lifting frame and aligned with the at least two positioning slots. The flexible sleeve is used to fit over the at least two cylindrical shells.

[0022] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 3 The ammunition processing and positioning equipment 100 includes a positioning box 10 and a positioning component 20. The positioning box has at least two positioning grooves 15 to accommodate at least two of the cylindrical shells (not shown). The positioning component includes a lifting cylinder 21, a lifting frame 22, and a flexible sleeve 23. The positioning cylinder is installed at one end of the positioning box, the lifting frame is installed on the lifting cylinder, and the flexible sleeve is installed on the lifting frame and aligned with the at least two positioning grooves. The flexible sleeve is used to fit over the at least two cylindrical shells.

[0023] For example, when the ammunition processing and positioning equipment is in use, at least two of the cylindrical shells are pushed into the at least two positioning slots respectively. The lifting cylinder drives the flexible sleeve to descend through the lifting frame, so that the flexible sleeve is fitted onto the at least two cylindrical shells, thereby preventing dust from entering the at least two cylindrical shells, avoiding dust intrusion, and improving the dustproof effect.

[0024] For example, to facilitate the fitting of the flexible sleeve, each positioning groove includes a guide portion 151 and a circular portion 153 that communicate with each other, the guide portion penetrating the side wall of the positioning box. The guide portion is rectangular, and its width is equal to the diameter of the circular portion. There are at least two positioning grooves, which are arranged side by side. A first connecting groove 181 and a second connecting groove 182 are provided on the top surface of the positioning box, and the first connecting groove and the second connecting groove are arranged side by side. The first connecting groove connects to the guide portions of the two positioning grooves, and the second connecting groove connects to the circular portions of the two positioning grooves. The lifting frame includes a lifting rod 221 and a crossbeam 222. The lifting rod is connected to the output shaft of the lifting cylinder, and one end of the crossbeam is vertically connected to the top of the lifting rod. The crossbeam extends to the top of the positioning box, and the flexible sleeve is connected to the crossbeam by multiple springs 201. The flexible sleeve includes two sleeved semi-cylinders 231 and a connecting portion 233. Both sleeved semi-cylinders are semi-cylindrical and aligned with the two positioning grooves. The connecting portion includes two arc-shaped connecting bodies, which are slidably disposed within the first and second connecting grooves, respectively. The opposite sides of each arc-shaped connecting body are connected to the corresponding edges of the two sleeved semi-cylinders. The first and second connecting grooves facilitate the sliding of the two arc-shaped connecting bodies, making it easier for the flexible sleeve to fit over the cylindrical shell and improving the covering effect. The multiple springs allow the flexible sleeve to elastically press against the top surface of the positioning box.

[0025] For example, and particularly importantly, the arc-shaped connector is a concave arc-shaped connector. The top surface of the flexible sleeve is provided with an "8"-shaped top plate 235. Two dust-removing electrode posts 238 are also provided on the crossbeam. These two dust-removing electrode posts are located at the center of the two sleeved semi-cylinders and are both inserted into the top plate. Each dust-removing electrode post extends towards the center of the circular portion of the positioning groove. The surface of the positioning box is also provided with two crescent-shaped fitting grooves 18, located on one side of the circular portion of the two positioning grooves. The crescent-shaped fitting grooves are concentric with the circular portion and spaced apart. The opposite ends of the crescent-shaped fitting grooves are respectively connected to the opposite sides of the circular portion. The bottom ends of the two sleeved semi-cylinders are partially inserted into the two crescent-shaped fitting grooves. By providing the two crescent-shaped fitting grooves, the positioning of the flexible sleeve is facilitated.

[0026] For example, each of the two positioning slots has a through-hole 185, which is a rectangular slot. A sliding slot 19 is through-hole on the side wall of the positioning box, located in the middle of the positioning box and communicating with the two moving slots. Guide slots 195 are recessed on the opposite side walls of the sliding slot. The positioning assembly also includes a positioning plate 24, two sets of locking springs 25, and a pushing cylinder 26. The positioning plate is slidably disposed within the sliding slot. Sliding guide strips 27 protrude from opposite sides of the positioning plate. The two sliding guide strips are slidably disposed within the two guide slots to guide the positioning plate relative to the positioning box. The two sets of locking springs are adjacent to opposite sides of the positioning plate, i.e., each set of locking springs is adjacent to one of the sliding guide strips. Each set of locking springs includes two locking springs, which are arranged along the sliding direction of the positioning plate. The interval between the two locking springs in each set is greater than the width of the movable groove, and the height of the two locking springs is greater than the distance between the surface of the positioning plate and the surface of the positioning box. The locking springs extend in an arc, with the top of the locking springs extending away from the positioning box. The pushing cylinder is located on the side of the positioning plate away from the positioning box. The pushing cylinder is connected to the positioning plate and is used to push the positioning plate into the sliding groove, forcing the two sets of locking springs into the movable groove. The two sets of locking springs are bent by the pressure of the top surface of the sliding groove. For example, in one state, one locking spring of each set is located in the corresponding movable groove and extends freely to be electrically connected to the bottom end of the dust removal electrode post to connect the circuit, while the other locking spring of each set is pressed against the top surface of the sliding groove. At this point, electrostatic dust removal can be performed using the dust removal electrode posts. Because the locking springs protrude from the top of the movable groove, they can laterally block the cylindrical shell, preventing it from moving laterally due to accidental force, thus serving as lateral positioning and electrode connection. When it is necessary to push the cylindrical shell out, the push cylinder continues to push the positioning plate forward, so that both sets of locking springs are pressed into the sliding groove, i.e., the two locking springs of each set are located on opposite sides of the movable groove. At this time, the lifting cylinder can be used to lift the flexible sleeve and the two dust removal electrode posts to release the two cylindrical shells, thereby pushing them out from the guide portions of the two positioning grooves. To return to the original position, pressing the locking springs will allow the push cylinder to pull them back to their original position.

[0027] For example, to facilitate the clamping of the two arc-shaped connectors, the distance between the two arc-shaped connectors is reduced, making the connection between the two sleeved half-cylinders narrower, and increasing the clamping force so that the flexible sleeve is clamped and positioned on the side wall of the meniscus sleeve groove. The ammunition processing and positioning equipment also includes a clamping assembly 30, which includes a clamping cylinder 31, a clamping frame 32, a mounting plate 33, a dust blowing pump 34, a horizontal push rod 35, and an elastic positioning sleeve 36. The clamping cylinder is mounted on the crossbeam and located between the two dust removal electrode posts. The clamping frame includes two clamping plates 321 and a connecting plate (not shown). The connecting plate is mounted on the output shaft of the clamping cylinder. The two clamping plates are respectively connected to the opposite ends of the connecting plate. The two clamping plates are respectively clamped on the opposite side walls of the flexible sleeve and respectively abut against the two arc-shaped connectors. To facilitate the introduction of the two clamping plates onto the outside of the flexible sleeve, each clamping plate includes a connecting section 3211, a straight section 3212, and a raised section 3213 connected in sequence. The connecting section is connected to the connecting plate. The straight section is perpendicular to the surface of the positioning box. The raised section is obliquely connected to the straight section. The distance between the raised sections of the two clamping plates gradually increases in the direction toward the positioning box. By setting the distance between the two raised sections, the clamping frame can be easily fitted onto the two arc-shaped connecting bodies. For example, both clamping plates are elastic bending plates.

[0028] For example, the mounting plate is adjacent to the push cylinder and vertically connected to the output shaft of the push cylinder. The dust pump is mounted on the top of the mounting plate. The horizontal push rod is tubular, with one end fixedly connected to the dust pump and the other end passing through the raised portion of one of the clamping plates and through one of the arc-shaped connecting bodies. The elastic positioning sleeve is fixedly fitted onto the horizontal push rod and engaged in the raised section of the clamping plate. The elastic positioning sleeve is made of rubber. The end of the horizontal push rod is provided with a magnetic part and has an air blowing hole facing the positioning box, used to blow the airflow delivered by the dust pump through the horizontal push rod into the positioning box to blow out the gas inside the flexible sleeve. For example, an air outlet channel (not shown) is also provided on the side wall of the positioning box, which communicates with the first connecting groove to lead out the gas. For example, an iron block is provided on the raised portion of a clamping plate away from the air pump. The iron block is attracted and bent by the magnetic part at the end of the horizontal push rod to press against the corresponding arc-shaped connecting body. Because the horizontal push rod is equipped with an elastic positioning sleeve, the contraction of the elastic positioning sleeve ensures that the horizontal push rod can move relative to the clamping plate, while the tension of the elastic positioning sleeve prevents the clamping plate from moving freely due to force. By setting up the clamping assembly, the clamping frame can clamp the two arc-shaped connecting bodies, thereby clamping the flexible sleeve. The elastic positioning sleeve and the magnetic part allow the raised portions of the two clamping plates to bend and move closer together, further improving the clamping effect. The elastic positioning sleeve also provides a positional function. The air blowing hole on the horizontal push rod, in conjunction with the air pump, facilitates the blowing out of dust from inside the flexible sleeve using airflow.

[0030] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of the present invention, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
