Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of quick-change clamps and relates to a quick-change clamp universal for horizontal and vertical clamps. Background Art

[0002] Existing clutch support parts, such as Figure 1 As shown in the figure, radial inclined holes or straight holes need to be processed. Figure 2 The combined fixture structure shown is a traditional positioning method, with a pressure plate pressing the parts and a positioning pin fixing the tooth groove. This positioning method is not only complex to clamp, but also requires extremely high position accuracy of the positioning pin in the fixture to ensure centering. Each part of different specifications can only use a dedicated combined fixture. And it can only be used in a five-axis machining center, occupying the capacity of a dedicated machine tool for a long time.

[0003] Therefore, it is impossible to achieve accurate positioning using ordinary fixtures, and it is often necessary to use many auxiliary tools or use multiple angles in combination, which results in a complex structure, high processing costs, and greatly reduces the clamping speed.
