There are two pushers, and the two pushers are respectively sleeved on the threaded sections at both ends of the double-headed screw. The double-headed screw is used to be driven to rotate and drive the pusher to move axially along the double-headed screw through the thread when rotating.

[0027] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention can be implemented in a variety of different ways as defined and covered below.
[0028] Please refer to the attached drawing, which is a structural diagram of a preferred embodiment of a centering fixture and parts processing equipment provided by the present invention.
[0029] A centering fixture is used to clamp and center a workpiece 2 having an arc surface. The centering fixture includes:
[0030] A clamping body 1, on which a limit plate is provided;
[0031] The guide member 6 and the positioning member 5 are symmetrically arranged on the clamp body 1 and form a guide cavity. The positioning member 5 is movably arranged in the guide cavity. A clamping cavity is formed between the positioning member 5 and the limit plate. The clamping cavity is used to clamp the workpiece 2. The positioning member 5 is used to fit and abut the arc surface of the workpiece 2.
[0032] The double-headed screw 4 and the pusher 3 are arranged in the guide cavity and the double-headed screw 4 is coaxial with the center line of the clamping body 1. There are two pushers 3, and the two pushers 3 are respectively sleeved on the threaded sections at both ends of the double-headed screw 4. The double-headed screw 4 is used to be driven to rotate and drive the pusher 3 to move axially along the double-headed screw 4 through the thread when rotating. The pusher 3 is used to push the positioning member 5 to move along the guide cavity so that the positioning member 5 cooperates with the limit plate to clamp the workpiece 2 and limit it.
[0033] Here, the “clamp body 1 ” means a structure that provides an installation boundary for various components. In some embodiments, the clamp body 1 is a plate-like structure or a frame structure.
[0034] The present invention can drive two symmetrical pushers 3 to move relative to each other along the axial direction of the double-headed screw 4 by rotating the double-headed screw 4. While moving, the pushers 3 can push the positioning member 5 to move along the guide cavity and cooperate with the limit plate of the clamp body 1 to clamp the workpiece 2. Since the double-headed screw 4 is coaxial with the center line of the clamp body 1, the pushers 3 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the double-headed screw 4, and the guide member 6 forms a guide cavity that can guide the displacement of the positioning member 5. Therefore, the symmetrical movement of the left and right pushers 3 can push the positioning member 5 to move smoothly in a straight line in a direction perpendicular to the center line of the clamp body 1, and the positioning member 5 is in contact with the arc surface of the workpiece 2, thereby clamping the workpiece 2 and centering the workpiece 2.
[0035] Preferably, please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the guide cavity is arranged along the radial direction of the double-headed screw 4, and the side where the positioning member 5 abuts against the pushing member 3 is symmetrically provided with a first inclined surface, and the side where the pushing member 3 abuts against the positioning member 5 is set as a second inclined surface, and the second inclined surface abuts against the first inclined surface and is used to push the positioning member 5 to move radially along the double-headed screw 4 when the pushing member 3 moves axially along the double-headed screw 4.
[0036] It can be understood that, since there are corresponding inclined surfaces between the pusher 3 and the positioning member 5, when the pusher 3 moves along the axial direction of the double-headed screw 4, Figure 1 The pusher 3 can push the positioning member 5 toward the limit plate, thereby clamping and fixing the workpiece 2. The pusher 3 and the positioning member 5 are in contact with each other through the inclined surface, which can also reduce the friction loss between the pusher 3 and the positioning member 5.
[0037] Of course, the present invention does not rule out the possibility of installing wheels or rollers on the inclined surfaces of the pusher 3 or the positioning member 5, which can further reduce the friction between the pusher 3 and the positioning member 5 and optimize the structure to make it more streamlined.
[0038] Preferably, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a side of the positioning member 5 that contacts the workpiece 2 is provided with symmetrical arc surface segments, which are adapted to the arc surface of the workpiece 2 .
[0039] It can be understood that the two symmetrical arc surface segments on the positioning member 5 can abut against the arc surface of the workpiece 2, and the symmetrical arc surface segments can abut and limit the left and right sides of the workpiece 2, thereby improving the stability of the support for the arc surface of the workpiece 2, ensuring the centering effect of the workpiece 2, and achieving a more stable and accurate centering effect.
[0040] Preferably, please refer to Figure 1 As shown, one end or both ends of the double-headed screw 4 are passed through the guide member 6 on one side or both sides.
[0041] It is understandable that the double-headed screw 4 is installed through the guide member 6, which can reduce additional installation components, help streamline the overall structure, and reduce manufacturing and maintenance costs.
[0042] Optionally, a handle is provided at one end of the double-headed screw 4 passing through the guide member 6 to facilitate manual rotation of the double-headed screw 4.
[0043] Preferably, please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the thread segments at both ends of the double-start screw 4 have opposite thread rotation directions.
[0044] It can be understood that the two pushers 3 are respectively sleeved on the thread segments at both ends of the double-headed screw 4, and the pushers 3 are symmetrically arranged, and the thread segments at both ends of the double-headed screw 4 have opposite rotation directions. When the double-headed screw 4 is rotated, the pushers 3 on both sides can be driven to move relative to each other. Figure 1 That is, simultaneously move the positioning member 5 toward both ends of the double-headed screw 4 to push the positioning member 5 toward the limit plate to clamp the workpiece 2, or simultaneously move the positioning member 5 and the workpiece 2 toward the center point of the double-headed screw 4 to release the positioning member 5.
[0045] In one embodiment, the clamp body 1 is a plate-shaped structure, and two limiting plates are symmetrically arranged on the clamp body 1, and the two limiting plates are respectively arranged on both sides of the guide cavity.
[0046] It should be noted that limiting plates are provided on both sides of the guide cavity, and the positioning member 5 in the guide cavity can be easily taken out and placed on either side of the guide cavity. The positioning member 5 can then form a clamping cavity with the limiting plates on either side, thereby enabling the workpiece 2 to be clamped in the clamping cavity at different positions, making it convenient to adjust the position of the workpiece 2 and facilitate subsequent processing of different positions of the workpiece 2.
[0047] Preferably, the positioning members 5 are symmetrically arranged in the guide cavity, the pusher 3 is a wedge-shaped structure or a cone structure with symmetrical conical surfaces, and the conical surfaces on opposite sides of the pusher 3 abut against the preset inclined surfaces on the two positioning members 5 in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0048] It is understandable that in production, multiple workpieces 2 may need to be clamped and processed at once to improve processing efficiency. Therefore, in this embodiment, symmetrical limit plates are provided on the plate-shaped clamp body 1, and correspondingly, symmetrical positioning members 5 are provided in the guide cavity. The two pushers 3 can simultaneously push the positioning members 5 on both sides, and the positioning members 5 on both sides can simultaneously clamp two workpieces 2, thereby increasing the number of clamped workpieces 2 and improving processing efficiency.
[0049] In another embodiment, the clamp body 1 includes a plurality of limit plates, which are arranged in sequence at angles along the circumference and together form a polygonal frame structure. The centering clamp includes a plurality of guide member groups, which are arranged one-to-one corresponding to the plurality of limit plates. A single guide member group includes two guide members 6 which are arranged on opposite sides of the corresponding limit plate and are both perpendicular to the limit plate. A guide cavity is formed between the two guide members 6 in the single guide member group.
[0050] It should be noted that the clamping body 1 in this embodiment is a frame structure, and the guide cavity in the clamping body 1 can be understood as a circular array radiating along the center line of the clamping body 1. In this way, a positioning member 5 can be set in any guide cavity, and a clamping cavity is formed by the positioning member 5 and any limit plate, so that the workpiece 2 can be clamped in more different positions, which is convenient for adjusting the position of the workpiece 2 and facilitating subsequent processing of different positions of the workpiece 2.
[0051] Preferably, each guide cavity is movably provided with a positioning member 5 , and the pusher 3 is provided with a plurality of conical surfaces along its circumference, and the plurality of conical surfaces on the pusher 3 abut against the preset inclined surfaces on the plurality of positioning members 5 in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0052] It should be noted that the "pushing member 3" here can be understood as a multi-faceted diamond-shaped pyramid structure.
[0053] It can be understood that in order to further improve the processing efficiency and meet the clamping requirements of more than two workpieces 2, this embodiment sets the clamping body 1 as a frame structure, and each side of the clamping body 1 is set as a limit plate. The groups of guide members 6 are arranged in a circular array to form a multi-directional guide cavity, and then the positioning members 5 in each guide cavity are pushed to move by the pushing member 3. In conjunction with the limit plate, multiple workpieces 2 can be clamped and positioned at the same time, which can greatly improve the processing efficiency.
[0054] According to another aspect of the present invention, a parts processing device is provided, which includes the above-mentioned centering fixture.
[0055] The parts processing equipment of the present invention also has the above-mentioned beneficial effects.
[0056] It should be noted that, in this article, the terms "comprises", "includes" or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or apparatus that includes a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also includes other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements that are inherent to such process, method, article or apparatus.
[0057] This article uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The above examples are only used to help understand the method and core ideas of the present invention. The above is only a preferred implementation method of the present invention. It should be pointed out that due to the limitations of textual expression, there are objectively infinite specific structures.
