Background Art

[0002] The locking shaft of the joint arm of the injection molding machine is cylindrical. During the processing, the end face of the locking shaft will be subjected to keyway milling, punching and tapping processes. The keyway milling process requires the equipment to pass through both ends of the locking shaft. First, parallel keyways are milled out. Traditional equipment cannot simultaneously mill both ends of the locking shaft, so the keyways need to be milled one by one.

[0003] A Chinese patent (publication number CN215317064U) discloses a fixture for processing the keyway on the end face of the locking shaft of an articulated arm of an injection molding machine, comprising a mounting seat, on which a first station and a second station are arranged in a mirror image; a first positioning platform and a second positioning platform are fixedly installed on the first station and the second station, respectively, two pressure sources are arranged between the first positioning platform and the second positioning platform, and also include a first pressure head and a second pressure head fixedly installed on the output ends of the two pressure sources, respectively. This fixture can realize the rapid placement and clamping of the locking shaft, and when the keyway milling at one end of the locking shaft is completed, the milling position of the keyway at the other end can be quickly corrected and positioned.

[0004] When in use, the device can position the locking shaft through multiple positioning modules in conjunction with the cylinder and the pressure head. However, the device cannot adjust the internal spacing of the positioning modules during use, resulting in the device being able to only position a locking shaft of one size when in use. If positioning of locking shafts of other sizes is required, clamping devices of other sizes must be replaced, which is not only troublesome but also increases the workflow. Utility Model Content

[0013] Preferably, an upper cleaning brush is provided on the other side wall of the linear slide, and the brush surface of the upper cleaning brush contacts the side wall of the vertical plate.
