[0022] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in the present invention, 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 described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a positioning structure for clamping an elliptical special-shaped part comprises a base 1, a lower pressure ring 2 arranged on the base 1 for supporting the flange of the special-shaped part, and an upper pressure ring 3 arranged on the lower pressure ring 2 for pressing the flange of the special-shaped part. The base 1 is used to support the entire device, and fixed shafts are provided at both ends of the base 1, which are rotatably connected to the machine tool. The lower pressure ring 2 is placed at the bottom of the flange of the workpiece for positioning the workpiece and fixed to the base 1. The upper pressure ring 3 is placed on the upper part of the workpiece for fixing the workpiece and connected to the lower pressure ring. A number of extrusion mechanisms for extruding the workpiece are evenly arranged on the inner side of the lower pressure ring 2.

[0024] The device consists of a support plate, a lower pressing ring and an upper pressing ring. The lower pressing ring is quickly fixed on the support plate by a clamp using hydraulic pressure. The upper pressing ring is placed on the flange of the workpiece and is hydraulically pressed by a clamp. This device has a simple structure and is easy to operate. It is suitable for fixing various elliptical special-shaped parts. This can reduce the deformation caused by fixing the workpiece and ensure that the workpiece will not be displaced during processing or assembly.

[0025] The lower pressing ring is positioned on the support plate by the positioning pin. Three extrusion mechanisms are installed in the lower pressing ring, which are evenly distributed around the circumference, so that the workpiece can be automatically placed in the center of the equipment. Different specifications of workpieces are equipped with different lower pressing rings to play the role of positioning and support. There are positioning holes on the upper edge of the workpiece, and there are positioning pins on the lower pressing ring. When the workpiece is placed, the positioning pins ensure the consistency and position accuracy of the front and rear workpiece positioning. By replacing the lower pressing ring 2 and the upper pressing ring 3, the clamping requirements of different types of elliptical workpieces can be met, and the clamping is firm and the positioning is accurate, which can avoid the problem of low workpiece processing accuracy caused by workpiece movement.

[0026] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the base 1 is provided with a plurality of first positioning pins 4 for positioning the lower pressing ring 2, and the lower pressing ring 2 is provided with a plurality of second positioning pins 5 for positioning the upper pressing ring 3. In this embodiment, there are four first positioning pins 4 and four second positioning pins 5. The positioning pins are used to position the upper and lower pressing rings to prevent the pressing rings from shifting due to their own weight after the workpiece is installed, thereby ensuring the consistency and position accuracy of the front and rear workpiece positioning.

[0027] like Figure 7 As shown, the inner side of the lower surface of the upper pressing ring 3 is provided with a groove 6 that cooperates with the flange of the special-shaped part. After the upper pressing ring 3 presses the flange position, the groove 6 can locate the flange position to ensure that the workpiece will not move.

[0028] like Figure 5 As shown, the extrusion mechanism includes a slide groove 7 arranged on the inner side of the lower pressure ring 2, a slider 8 arranged in the slide groove 7 and sliding in the slide groove 7, a compression spring 9 is provided between the outer end of the slider 8 and the inner wall of the slide groove 7, the inner end of the compression spring 9 contacts the slider 8, and the outer end of the compression spring 9 contacts the inner wall of the slide groove 7. Under the action of the compression spring 9, the slider 8 is squeezed inward, thereby pressing the special-shaped part.

[0029] like Figure 5 As shown, an extrusion wheel 10 is provided at one inner end of the slider 8. The extrusion wheel 10 can prevent the slider from damaging the special-shaped part when placing the special-shaped part.

[0030] The shape of the lower pressing ring 2 and the shape of the upper pressing ring 3 correspond to the shape of the special-shaped part.
