The four-axis turntable can provide an additional degree of rotational freedom for the existing three-axis CNC machine tool, so that the machine tool can realize four-axis linkage processing. The four-axis turntable 6 is configured as the fourth axis of the CNC machine tool, and is used for the keyway 201 of the motor shaft 200 to accurately index the keyway 201, ensuring that the circumferential angle of the keyway 201 meets the design requirements. The chuck 8 is coaxially connected to the four-axis turntable 6, and the chuck 8 has a clamping jaw 81. The clamping jaw 81 of the chuck clamps the motor shaft 200 in the radial direction, so that it is firmly positioned on the workbench of the machine tool for milling, drilling, grinding and other processing operations. The support 4 can be slidably arranged at the other end of the base plate 1 along the axial direction. The first center 11 is coaxially connected to the chuck 8, and the second center 5 is arranged on the support 4 and is coaxially arranged with the first center 11. The support 4 can drive the second tip 5 to move axially by sliding, and clamp the motor shaft 200 axially. The two tips can provide precise positioning points for the motor shaft to ensure the coaxiality and stability of the motor shaft during processing. The support 4 and the base plate 1 can form a sliding connection by means of a slide rail, a ball screw, etc. After reaching the clamping position, the support 4 is fixed to the base plate 1 by a fastener to maintain the axial clamping force on the motor shaft.

[0035] According to the fixture for processing the keyway of a motor shaft according to the embodiment of the utility model, a four-axis turntable, a chuck and a support are provided. The jaws of the chuck can clamp the motor shaft. The four-axis turntable provides rotational freedom and can automatically rotate the motor shaft to a preset angle for processing the keyway. The position of the support can be adjusted according to the length of the motor shaft and the center can be pressed against the motor shaft at the same time, thereby improving the processing efficiency and the processing accuracy of the keyway.

[0036] Combination Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the fixture 100 for machining the keyway of the motor shaft also includes an axial motion part 41, the axial motion part 41 is arranged on the support 4, the axial motion part 41 has a telescopic rod, and the second tip 5 is arranged on the telescopic rod. The power source of the axial motion part 41 is selected according to actual needs, and there is no specific restriction on this. Exemplarily, the axial motion part 41 is an electric cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder, which has the advantages of being oil-free and pollution-free. It should be noted that the second tip 5 and the telescopic rod can be connected by threaded fixing, snap-on fixing, etc. Since the telescopic rod can be continuously extended and retracted in the axial direction, after the support 4 and the base plate 1 are fastened, the end holes at both ends of the motor shaft and the two tips can be clamped by moving the telescopic rod.

[0037] The fixture for machining the keyway of the motor shaft also includes a linear module 7, which is arranged on the base plate 1, and the axial motion part 41 is arranged on the linear module 7. The linear module 7 includes a slider 71, a guide rail 72 and a first fastener 73. The guide rail 72 is arranged on the base plate 1 along the axial direction of the chuck 8, the slider 71 is slidably matched with the guide rail 72, and the first fastener 73 connects the support 4 with the slider 71. The linear module 7 is a mechanical component for realizing linear motion, which can provide smooth and consistent linear motion, and has a more compact structure, which helps to save space. The first fastener 73 can be a bolt or a pin. In one example, one end of the guide rail 72 is flush with the end of the base plate 1, and a stop block 13 is installed on the side of this end of the base plate 1 to prevent the slider 71 from exceeding the range of motion.

[0038] In order to lock the support 4 and the slider 71 at a suitable position on the bottom plate 1, the bottom plate 1 is provided with a row of mounting holes 102 along both sides of the guide rail 72, and the first fastener 73 penetrates the support 4 and the slider 71 and is connected to the mounting holes 102. The gap between adjacent mounting holes 102 is set according to actual needs and is not specifically limited thereto.

[0039] In some embodiments, in combination Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the motor shaft 200 with a longer length may vibrate during keyway processing.
