Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of industrial auxiliary production devices, and in particular to a fixture mainly used for clamping small box products for processing, such as AC21 audio boxes and the like. Background Art
[0002] Smaller box products are used in many fields, such as the AC21 audio box, which belongs to the electronic appearance products of science and education. The requirements for such products are high, and the appearance cannot have three kinds of damage: scratches, crushing and bumps. Since such products (workpieces) have multiple surfaces to be processed, the traditional processing method is generally to loosen the workpiece after processing one surface, change another surface for clamping, align the processing tool and continue processing, and proceed in sequence until all processing is completed. The disadvantage is that there are many processes and multiple clamping is required. During the processing, the three kinds of damage are prone to occur due to frequent clamping, resulting in a low yield rate, troublesome clamping, and low processing efficiency. Although some manufacturers have designed some rotatable processing jigs, the structure of such processing jigs is relatively complex, the clamping operation is not convenient, and it is not easy to ensure that the product remains unchanged during clamping and processing.

[0005] Furthermore, a positioning mechanism is installed on the base plate at a position outside the limit block, and the positioning mechanism includes a positioning cylinder, a positioning rod and a positioning block. The positioning rod is connected to the positioning cylinder, and the positioning block is installed at the front end of the positioning rod. After the workpiece is installed on the base plate, the positioning cylinder is driven to block one end of the workpiece to form a positioning structure for the workpiece.
[0006] Furthermore, the downward pressure cylinder and the limit block each include two left and right parts, and each of the two downward pressure cylinders is connected with a clamping screw, and the two clamping screws are connected to the pressure plate through the bottom plate at the outer sides of the two limit blocks.
[0007] Furthermore, mounting grooves with one side opening are respectively arranged on the pressing plate at the positions aligned with the two clamping screws, and the clamping screws are embedded in the mounting grooves and assembled and fixed to the pressing plate.

[0009] Furthermore, two baffles are arranged on the bottom surface of the bottom plate, and the front and rear sides of the downward pressure cylinder are blocked by the two baffles.
[0010] Furthermore, the positioning rod is vertically installed at the front end of the cylinder rod of the positioning cylinder so that the positioning rod extends laterally to a position close to the front end of the workpiece, and the positioning block is installed on the inner side of the front end of the positioning rod to be opposite to the front end of the workpiece.
[0011] The utility model controls the pressure plate to move toward the bottom plate to press the workpiece by the pressure cylinder below. The entire device is installed on the CND three-axis machine through a turntable base so that it can rotate 360 degrees along the horizontal axis. In this way, multi-faceted processing can be achieved through one clamping, ensuring the stability of product quality, reducing three injuries, improving the processing accuracy and qualified rate of the product, and only one processing is required, saving costs.

The positioning rod 32 is connected to the positioning cylinder 31, and the positioning block 33 is installed at the front end of the positioning rod 32. After the workpiece 9 is installed on the bottom plate 1, the positioning block 33 is driven by the positioning cylinder 31 to block one end of the workpiece 9 to form a positioning structure for the workpiece 9. In this way, the workpiece 9 can be positioned with higher precision, and the positioning operation is very convenient.
[0019] The pressing cylinder 4 and the limiting block 6 each include two left and right parts. The two pressing cylinders 4 are each connected with a clamping screw 41 .
