Then, the spline sleeve is moved toward the middle part, that is, the outer spline part of the spline shaft, so as to adapt the spline sleeve to the spline shaft to limit the freedom of circular rotation of the spline shaft, thereby realizing the positioning of the two degrees of freedom of the spline axial and circumferential, and the spline shaft can be well locked.
[0009] The above solution can quickly and effectively position and lock the spline shaft, the operation is very convenient, and the positioning is more stable.
[0010] Preferably, the linear drive device is a three-axis cylinder, so as to move the spline sleeve smoothly.

[0012] Preferably, the spline sleeve is detachably connected to the connecting frame, so as to facilitate replacement of different spline sleeves so as to lock spline shafts of different thicknesses.
[0013] Preferably, the spline sleeve is provided with a flange bolted to the connecting member, so as to facilitate a more convenient fixed connection of the spline sleeve.
[0014] Preferably, a guide cylinder is provided outside the driving tip, the guide cylinder is fixed relative to the machine body, the spline sleeve is fitted over the guide cylinder, and the spline sleeve can slide axially relative to the guide cylinder but cannot rotate circumferentially. The spline sleeve is connected by the guide cylinder, which can guide the spline sleeve on the one hand and improve the strength of the circumferential positioning of the spline sleeve on the other hand.
[0015] Preferably, the guide cylinder and the front section of the spline sleeve are matched through an axially arranged keyway, which can well achieve the effect of relative axial sliding of the guide cylinder and the spline sleeve.
[0016] Preferably, the spline sleeve is provided with a return spring, and the two ends of the return spring abut against the flange and the body respectively, so that the spline sleeve can be pushed toward the middle by the return spring, avoiding the use of a cylinder, and making the operation more convenient.
