DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0022] like Figure 3 As shown, the utility model discloses a multi-station master cylinder centering fixture, including a main fixed plate 1, on which at least one centering clamping device 2 is provided, and 8 groups of centering clamping devices 2 can be provided, but the number is certainly not limited to 8 groups, and can be provided as required, but the number and weight of the two surfaces must be kept the same to prevent eccentric force from being generated during rotation, and they are respectively provided on the two surfaces of the fixed plate. During processing, the end of the main fixed plate 1 is fixed on the main shaft of the machine tool, and is driven to rotate by the machine tool, and the product fixed by the centering clamping device 2 is processed by the tool, specifically:

[0023] like Figure 4 As shown, the centering clamping device 2 includes a clamping cylinder 3, which is a purchased part. The clamping cylinder 3 realizes the clamping of two groups of clamping heads by air intake. The clamping simultaneously realizes the centering problem of the columnar part. The clamping heads of the clamping cylinder 3 are relatively provided with a fixed profiling clamping block 4 and a floating clamping block assembly 5. The floating clamping block assembly 5 includes

[0024] The positioning block 6 and the floating block 7 are provided with a protrusion 8 on the positioning block 6, and a vertical cylindrical groove 9 is provided on the protrusion 8. The floating block 7 includes a profiling groove and a cylindrical block 10. The cylindrical block 10 is vertically inserted into the cylindrical groove 9. A stopper 11 is provided below the protrusion 8. The stopper 11 is used to limit the movement of the cylindrical block 10. The side walls of the cylindrical block 10 and the cylindrical groove 9 are provided with an inclination opposite to the drawing inclination of the workpiece. The cylindrical block 10 can float up and down in the cylindrical groove 9. A gap 12 is provided between the cylindrical block 10 and the top of the cylindrical groove 9. An elastic ring (not shown in the figure) is provided in the gap 12. A pressure plate 13 is provided above the elastic ring. The elastic ring is a U-shaped structure, which is pressed on the top of the cylindrical block 10. When clamped, the floating The contoured groove of block 7 is pressed against the lower part of the workpiece, and the floating block 7 is pressed against the workpiece. Since the side wall of the workpiece has a movable drawing slope, when the workpiece is clamped, the workpiece will move slightly upward. At this time, the friction between the floating block 7 and the workpiece is greater than the friction between the columnar block 10 and the columnar groove 9 of the floating block 7, so the floating block 7 will be driven to have an upward force and squeeze the elastic member. Since the side walls of the columnar block 10 and the columnar groove 9 are provided with a very small slope, about 5 wires, and opposite to the drawing slope of the workpiece, when the workpiece has an upward floating force, the columnar block 10 will be pressed with a downward force to continuously press the workpiece downward to prevent the workpiece from moving upward, thereby ensuring the stability of the workpiece clamping and solving the problem of the original fixed jaw method in which the bottom of the workpiece is suspended after clamping.

[0025] Among them, Figure 6 As shown, the fixed profiling clamp 4 and the profiling groove include a semicircular groove body 14, and four positioning points 15 are arranged on the upper and lower inner walls of the semicircular groove body 14. The bottom positioning point 15 protrudes from the top positioning point 15. When the clamping cylinder 3 is clamped, the positioning point 15 is pressed against the side wall of the product, and the point positioning has better stability.

[0026] Since the product is an irregular columnar structure, a protrusion 8 is also provided on the side. An edge clamping assembly 16 is provided on the side of the centering clamping device 2. The edge clamping assembly 16 includes a base. A fixed block 18 and a push-pull cylinder 19 are provided on the base. The fixed block 18 is pressed on the side of the fixed profiling clamping block 4. A support block 21 is provided on the base. A swing arm 23 is connected to the support block 21 through a rotating shaft 22. One end of the swing arm 23 is connected to the output end of the push-pull cylinder 19, and the other end is connected to a movable clamping block 20 through a rotating pin 24. The movable clamping block 20 is pressed on the side of the fixed profiling clamping block 4. The base and the floating clamping block assembly 5 are arranged between the base and the floating clamping block assembly 5 and are aligned with the fixed block 18. When the movable clamping block is close to the fixed block 18, it clamps the edge protrusion 8 of the workpiece. The drawing cylinder is laterally arranged. The drawing cylinder extends out to drive the swing arm 23 to rotate along the rotating shaft 22. A rotating pin 24 is provided on the side connected to the movable clamping block 20 to ensure the movement between the swing arm 23 and the movable clamping block 20. The movable clamping block is slidably connected to the side wall of the support block 21 through the slide groove structure of the slide rail 25, and can slide horizontally along the slide rail 25 and cooperate with the fixed block 18 to clamp the protrusion 8 of the product to achieve fixation.

[0027] A cushion block 26 is provided at the bottom of the fixed profiling clamp block 4 and the floating clamp block assembly 5 to ensure the stability of the product.
