The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0021] First embodiment:

[0022] See also Figure 1 to Figure 3 ,in Figure 1 It is a three-dimensional stereogram of the first embodiment of the utility model. Figure 2 is a side view of the first embodiment of the utility model, Figure 3 The utility model Figure 2 Section view along line AA.

[0023] The utility model provides a pneumatic positioning pin 101, including the positioning pin 101, a cylinder 102 and a buffer mechanism, the buffer mechanism including a limit cover, a plurality of buffer components and a base 106, the limit cover including two sliders 114 and a cover body 115, and the above-mentioned scheme solves the technical problem that the cylinder 102 will generate impact force on itself during operation, and the cylinder 102 itself has no buffering function, thereby reducing the service life of the cylinder 102 under such impact force.

[0024] According to this specific embodiment, the output end of the cylinder 102 has a positioning hole 103, and a connecting rod 104 is arranged in the positioning hole 103. The positioning pin 101 is slidably connected to the connecting rod 104 and is located at the end of the connecting rod 104 away from the cylinder 102. By changing the connection method between the cylinder 102 and the positioning pin 101, the self-rotation of the cylinder 102 and the longitudinal sliding of the connecting rod 104 are utilized to compensate for the longitudinal deviation of the force transmission between the cylinder 102 and the positioning pin 101, so as to realize the power linkage between the cylinder 102 and the positioning pin 101. The force transmission of the cylinder 102 is not affected by the accuracy, so the force balance of the positioning pin 101 is guaranteed, and the positioning accuracy of the positioning pin 101 is guaranteed.

[0025] Wherein, the buffer assembly includes two buffer springs 107 and a buffer plate 108, the front end surface of the buffer plate 108 is provided with a buffer pad 109, the rear end surface of the buffer plate 108 is provided with two sliding rods 110, one end of the sliding rod 110 is provided with a limiting plate 111, both sides of the base 106 are provided with side plates 112, and both ends of the base 106 are provided with two supporting plates 113, the limiting cover and the cylinder 102 are mutually abutted and covered on the top of the cylinder 102, the limiting cover is also slidably connected with the corresponding side plate 112, and is located between the two side plates 112, and the cylinder 102 is located between the base 106 and the two side plates 112, the buffer spring 107 is sleeved on the sliding rod 110, and abuts between the support plate 113 and the buffer plate 108, and the two sliding rods 110 are respectively connected to the support plate 113 and the buffer plate 108. The support plate 113 is slidably connected and is located inside and passes through the support plate 113. The buffer pad 109 and the cylinder 102 are mutually supported and located at one end of the cylinder 102, and the output end of the cylinder 102 is located between the corresponding two support plates 113. The cylinder 102 is buffered by the buffer spring 107 and the buffer pad 109, thereby reducing the impact force generated by the cylinder 102 during operation, thereby increasing the service life of the cylinder 102. The sliding rod 110 can facilitate supporting the buffer plate 108, and at the same time, the sliding rod 110 is slidably connected to the support plate 113, and the impact force of the cylinder 102 can be offset under the action of the buffer spring 107. The limit cover can prevent the cylinder 102 from moving upward, and the limit plate 111 can limit the moving distance of the sliding rod 110.

[0026] Secondly, the inner side of the side plate 112 is provided with a slide groove 116, and the two sliders 114 are respectively fixedly connected to the cover body 115 and are located on both sides of the cover body 115. The two sliders 114 are also respectively slidably connected to the side plates 112 and are located in the corresponding slide grooves 116. The cover body 115 and the cylinder 102 are mutually supported and covered on the top of the cylinder 102. The movement of the cover body 115 can be limited by the sliders 114, and the cover body 115 is also supported.

[0027] Again, two screws 117 are provided on the outer side of the side panel 112, and one end of the slider 114 has two thread grooves 105. The two threads are respectively threadedly connected to the slider 114 and are located in the corresponding thread grooves 105 and penetrate the side panel 112. The slider 114 can be easily fixed by the screws 117, thereby preventing the cover body 115 from being displaced, thereby improving the stability between the cover body 115 and the side panel 112.

[0028] When using the utility model, the cylinder 102 is placed between the two side plates 112, and the multiple buffer components are supported at the two ends of the cylinder 102 body, so that the buffer pad 109 supports the two ends of the cylinder 102, and then the cover body 115 is slid into the slide groove 116 through the slider 114 and fixed by the screw 117. The cover body 115 can limit the cylinder 102 from moving upward. When the cylinder 102 is running, it will move backward and be buffered by the buffer pad 109 and the buffer spring 107 at one end of the base 106. When the output end of the cylinder 102 is released instantly, its impact force will be offset by the multiple buffer springs 107 and the buffer pad 109. In this way, the technical problem that the cylinder 102 will generate impact force on itself when running, and the cylinder 102 itself does not have a buffering function, thereby reducing the service life of the cylinder 102 under such impact force is solved.

[0032] For this specific embodiment, the guide sleeve 201 is threadedly connected to the positioning pin 101 and is sleeved on the connection between the positioning pin 101 and the connecting rod 104. The limiting effect of the guide sleeve 201 can ensure that the adaptive adjustment range of the positioning pin 101 is large enough and the stability of the positioning pin 101 during movement can also be ensured.

[0033] The positioning pin 101 has a T-slot 205 above, the positioning portion 202 is fixedly connected to the rod 204 and is located at one end of the rod 204, the positioning portion 202 is also slidably connected to the cylinder 102 and is located in the positioning hole 103, the T-block 203 is fixedly connected to the rod 204 and is located at the other end of the rod 204, and the positioning pin 101 is slidably connected to the T-block 203 and is located on the T-block 203, and the T-block 203 is located in the T-slot 205, if there is an axial deviation between the locating pin 101 and the output end of the cylinder 102, the locating pin 101 will automatically adjust to the correct position under the limiting action of the guide sleeve 201, and then the T-block 203 will have a relative displacement relative to the T-slot 205. This dynamic real-time adjustment can avoid the fixed end of the locating pin 101 from being tilted by force, and the locating pin 101 slides smoothly in the guide sleeve 201, eliminating the occurrence of the locating pin 101 being stuck in the guide sleeve 201 or in the inner hole.

[0034] Secondly, a bolt 206 is provided at the output end of the cylinder 102. The bolt 206 is threadedly connected to the positioning portion 202, is located inside the positioning portion 202, and passes through the positioning hole 103. The bolt 206 can be used to easily limit the movement of the positioning portion 202, thereby improving the stability between the positioning portion 202 and the positioning hole 103.

[0035] By using a pneumatic locating pin 101 of the present embodiment, the limiting effect of the guide sleeve 201 can ensure that the adaptive adjustment range of the locating pin 101 is large enough and the stability of the locating pin 101 during movement can be ensured. If an axial deviation occurs between the locating pin 101 and the output end of the cylinder 102, the locating pin 101 will automatically adjust correctly under the limiting effect of the guide sleeve 201, and then the T-block 203 will have a relative displacement relative to the T-slot 205. This dynamic real-time adjustment can avoid the fixed end of the locating pin 101 from being tilted by force. The locating pin 101 slides smoothly in the guide sleeve 201, eliminating the occurrence of the locating pin 101 being stuck in the guide sleeve 201 or in the inner hole. The bolt 206 can easily limit the movement of the locating portion 202, thereby improving the stability between the locating portion 202 and the locating hole 103.
