[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] In order to further understand the content of the present invention, the present invention is described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Combine Figure 1-Figure 4 A positioning structure for clamping high-precision guide rail processing, including an annular positioning guide rail 1, a clamping positioning mechanism 2 and an end positioning mechanism 3, characterized in that: the clamping positioning mechanism 2 and the end positioning mechanism 3 are movably installed on the annular positioning guide rail 1 through a slider, the clamping positioning mechanism 2 and the end positioning mechanism 3 cooperate to clamp the high-precision annular guide rail 4 to be processed, the clamping positioning mechanism 2 is clamped in the middle of the high-precision annular guide rail 4, and the end positioning mechanism 3 is clamped at both ends of the high-precision annular guide rail 4, thereby limiting all degrees of freedom of the high-precision annular guide rail 4 without repeated positioning.

[0024] A first slider 201 is fixedly connected to the clamping and positioning mechanism 2, and the first slider 201 is slidably connected to the annular positioning guide rail 1. A first motor 202 is fixedly connected to one side of the first slider 201, and a first gear 203 is fixedly connected to the transmission shaft of the first motor 202 through a keyway. An annular rack 101 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the annular positioning guide rail 1, and the first gear 203 and the annular rack 101 are engaged with each other for transmission, so that the first motor 202 can drive the first gear 203 to rotate, and then the clamping and positioning mechanism 2 is driven to move along the annular positioning guide rail 1 through the engagement of the first gear 203 and the annular rack 101. The clamping and positioning mechanism 2 includes a clamping frame 204, which is fixedly connected to the first slider 201, and a first clamping block 205 is fixedly connected to one side of the upper end of the clamping frame 204. A movable clamping clamp 207 is movably connected to one side of the clamping frame 204 via a first rotating shaft 206, and a second clamping block 208 is fixedly connected to one side of the movable clamping clamp 207. A clamping cylinder 210 is movably connected to the lower side of the clamping frame 204 via a second rotating shaft 209. The output end of the clamping cylinder 210 is movably connected to the movable clamping clamp 207 via a third rotating shaft 211, so that the clamping cylinder 210 can push the movable clamping clamp 207 to rotate along the first rotating shaft 206, thereby clamping the high-precision annular guide rail 4 between the first clamping block 205 and the second clamping block 208.

[0025] A second slider 301 is fixedly connected to the end positioning mechanism 3, which is slidably connected to the annular positioning guide rail 1. A second motor 302 is fixedly connected to one side of the second slider 301. A second gear 303 is fixedly connected to the drive shaft of the second motor 302 via a keyway. The second gear 303 engages with the annular rack 101 for transmission. The end positioning mechanism 3 includes an end limit bracket 304, which is fixedly connected to the second slider 301. An end limit block 305 is fixedly connected to one side of the end limit bracket 304. This allows the second motor 302 to drive the second gear 303 to rotate, thereby driving the end positioning mechanism 3 to move along the annular positioning guide rail 1, thereby clamping the high-precision annular guide rail 4 from both ends.

[0026] Specifically, a pressure sensor 212 is provided between the clamping frame 204 and the first clamping block 205 and between the movable clamping clamp 207 and the second clamping block 208, and a torque sensor 306 is provided between the end limit bracket 304 and the end limit block 305, so as to monitor and adjust the clamping force of the clamping positioning mechanism 2 and the end positioning mechanism 3.

[0027] Specifically, the first clamping block 205 and the second clamping block 208 are engaged with the grooves on both sides of the high-precision annular guide rail 4 to prevent the high-precision annular guide rail 4 from flipping over. The first clamping block 205, the second clamping block 208 and the end limit block 305 are all made of nylon to prevent scratches on the high-precision annular guide rail 4.

[0028] Specifically, the first motor 202 and the second motor 302 are both reduction servo motors, which can provide sufficient control accuracy and clamping force.

[0029] Working principle: During use, first adjust the position of the clamping and positioning mechanism 2 according to the length of the high-precision annular guide rail 4, then set the high-precision annular guide rail 4 on the first clamping block 205 in the clamping and positioning mechanism 2, and then start the clamping cylinder 210 in the clamping and positioning mechanism 2. The clamping cylinder 210 pushes the movable clamping clamp 207 to rotate along the first rotating axis 206, clamping the high-precision annular guide rail 4 between the first clamping block 205 and the second clamping block 208, and then the two sets of end positioning mechanisms 3 at both ends of the high-precision annular guide rail 4 move along the annular positioning guide rail 1 under the drive of the second motor 302 and the second gear 303, clamping the two ends of the high-precision annular guide rail 4, thereby realizing the clamping of the high-precision annular guide rail 4.

[0030] After clamping is completed, the first motor 202 and the second motor 302 in the clamping positioning mechanism 2 and the end positioning mechanism 3 can be controlled to drive the clamping positioning mechanism 2 and the end positioning mechanism 3 to move synchronously on the annular positioning guide rail 1, so that the clamping position of the high-precision annular guide rail 4 can be adjusted, and positioning can also be performed, and it can also be used for transferring workstations.
