The auxiliary positioning device includes a positioning template 1 and a fixing frame 2, and a first positioning hole 10 is opened on the positioning template 1. The positioning template 1 is provided with a first side wall 11, a second side wall 12 and a third side wall 13 which are connected in sequence and arranged at an angle, and the first side wall 11 and the third side wall 13 extend in opposite directions relative to the second side wall 12. The junction of the first side wall 11 and the second side wall 12 is a positioning edge 14. The positioning template 1 is stacked on the reference surface of the mounting base, so that the first side wall 11 is aligned with the side wall surface of the mounting base, and the positioning edge 14 is aligned and overlapped with the positioning point on the reference surface, so that the installation position of the electrostatic discharger base can be determined through the first positioning hole 10, and a corresponding pneumatic tool is used to make a hole on the mounting base through the first positioning hole 10, so that a hole corresponding to the hole position on the electrostatic discharger base can be obtained.

In addition, the device is simple and convenient to operate, and can also effectively improve the positioning efficiency and hole making quality.

[0043] In this embodiment, the first side wall 11, the second side wall 12 and the third side wall 13 are vertically connected in sequence to form a Z-shape.

[0044] The positioning points on the above-mentioned reference surface are found and marked by the operating personnel according to the design drawings; the number and setting positions of the first positioning holes 10 on the positioning template 1 are set correspondingly according to the hole positions on the electrostatic discharger base.

[0045] Optionally, continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2There are two fixing frames 2, which are respectively arranged at the two ends of the positioning template 1, and the positioning edge 14 is located between the two fixing frames 2, which can effectively increase the stability of the positioning template 1 against the reference surface, improve the positioning accuracy and the stability during the hole making process.

[0046] Optionally, refer to Figure 3 The fixing frame 2 includes a first plate 21, a second plate 22 and a third plate 23 which are bent and connected in sequence to form a U shape. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first plate 21 is stacked on the side of the positioning template 1 away from the reference plane, and the third plate 23 is located on the side of the mounting base away from the positioning template 1, that is, the positioning template 1 and the mounting base are sandwiched between the first plate 21 and the third plate 23. The third plate 23 is provided with a fixing hole 231, and a fixing member 232 is inserted into the fixing hole 231. The fixing member 232 is pressed against the side of the mounting base away from the reference plane to press the positioning template 1 against the reference plane to ensure the stability of positioning.

[0047] Exemplarily, the fixing member 232 is a bolt commonly used in the art, and correspondingly, a thread is provided in the fixing hole 231 , and the mounting base can be loosened and tightened by screwing the bolt.

[0048] Further, continue to refer to Figures 1 to 3 , the first plate 21 is provided with a first connection hole 211 and two second positioning holes 212, and the two second positioning holes 212 are respectively provided on both sides of the first connection hole 211; the positioning template 1 is provided with a second connection hole 16 and two third positioning holes 17, and the two third positioning holes 17 are respectively provided on both sides of the second connection hole 16.

The first connection hole 211 and the second connection hole 16 are coaxially arranged, and connecting members 214 are penetrated in the first connection hole 211 and the second connection hole 16 to further achieve the fixation of the positioning template 1 and the fixing frame 2 and improve the stability of the connection between the two.

[0049] Illustratively, in this embodiment, the positioning member 213 is a pin, and the connecting member 214 is a hexagon socket fixing bolt.

[0050] Optionally, a flexible sleeve is provided on the fixing member 232, and the flexible sleeve is pressed against a side of the mounting base away from the reference plane to prevent the mounting base from being scratched and causing damage to the parts.

When the positioning template 1 is superimposed on the reference surface, the contact surface of the positioning protrusion 15 is made to contact the side wall surface of the mounting base, and the initial placement of the positioning template 1 can be completed. Subsequently, the hole making position can be found by aligning the positioning edge 14 with the positioning point, making the positioning process faster and more convenient, which is conducive to improving the subsequent assembly efficiency.

[0054] Optionally, a first flexible layer is provided on the side of the positioning template 1 facing the reference surface; and / or a second flexible layer is sandwiched between the positioning template 1 and the fixing frame 2. The above arrangement can effectively prevent the reference surface of the component mounting base from being scratched when the positioning template 1 moves on the reference surface, thereby ensuring the quality of the component.

[0055] Exemplarily, in this embodiment, both the first flexible layer and the second flexible layer are made of rubber material.

[0056] In addition, in other embodiments, the fixing frame 2 and the positioning template 1 face each other, and the areas abutting each other both adopt a tooth surface shape. A first tooth surface is provided on the fixing frame 2, and a second tooth surface is provided on the positioning template 1. The first tooth surface matches the second tooth surface to prevent the fixing frame 2 and the positioning template 1 from sliding, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the two.

[0057] Optionally, the positioning edge 14 is coated with a color pigment, which is easier to distinguish visually, making it more convenient and quick for operators to align the positioning edge 14 with the positioning point, thereby improving positioning efficiency and overall assembly efficiency.

[0058] Exemplarily, the color-developing pigment is ink, paint or coating, etc.
