DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0033] The following further describes the present application in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0034] A positioning tooling disclosed in the present application, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, includes a mounting base 1, two groups of clamping components arranged on the mounting base 1, and a pressing plate 12. Two equal-height blocks 11 are arranged on the upper end surface of the mounting base 1. The two equal-height blocks 11 are respectively arranged at both ends of the length direction of the upper end surface of the mounting base 1. The lower end surface of the pressing plate 12 is fixedly connected to the upper ends of the equal-height blocks 11, ensuring that the pressing plate 12 is horizontally arranged, improving the processing accuracy. By replacing the two equal-height blocks 11, it is convenient to adjust the horizontal height of the pressing plate 12.

[0035] As Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in the figure, two sets of clamping components are arranged along the length direction of the pressing plate 12 on the mounting seat 1. The clamping component includes a bottom plate 2 for supporting the workpiece 4 and a driving component 3 for driving the bottom plate 2 to move. The driving component 3 includes a first cylinder 31, a cylinder push block 32, and two optical axes 33. The two optical axes 33 are respectively arranged at both ends of the bottom plate 2 in the horizontal direction. The two optical axes 33 pass through the bottom plate 2, and the upper and lower ends of the two optical axes 33 are respectively fixedly connected to the mounting seat 1 and the pressing plate 12. By setting the optical axes 33, the sliding path of the bottom plate 2 is limited. Two guide rails 14 perpendicular to the length direction of the pressing plate 12 are arranged on the upper side of the mounting seat 1. The two guide rails 14 are respectively arranged below the two bottom plates 2. The upper end surfaces of the two first cylinder 31 push blocks 32 are respectively slidably connected to the two guide rails 14. The upper end surface of the cylinder push block 32 abuts against the lower end surface of the bottom plate 2, and both the upper end surface of the first cylinder 31 push block 32 and the lower end surface of the bottom plate 2 are smooth surfaces, which helps to reduce the friction force. The abutting surface 321 between the upper end surface of the first cylinder 31 push block 32 and the lower end surface of the bottom plate 2 is an inclined surface, and the side of the inclined surface close to the workpiece 4 is inclined downward. The cylinder body part of the first cylinder 31 is fixedly arranged on the mounting seat 1. A connecting block 311 is fixedly arranged on the telescopic rod of the first cylinder 31. The side of the connecting block 311 away from the first cylinder 31 is fixedly connected to the side of the cylinder push block 32 away from the workpiece 4. When the first cylinder 31 drives the cylinder push block 32 to move, the moving position of the bottom plate 2 is limited by the optical rod, and then the bottom plate 2 is driven to move up and down. In order to prevent the optical axis 33 from being bent during long-term operation, a fixture front protection plate 13 for limiting the bottom plate 2 is arranged on the mounting seat 1. The fixture front protection plate 13 is fixedly arranged on the upper end surface of the mounting seat 1. The side of the bottom plate 2 away from the first cylinder 31 abuts against the fixture front protection plate 13. During the up and down movement of the bottom plate 2, the bottom plate 2 always abuts against the fixture front protection plate 13, effectively reducing the force exerted by the bottom plate 2 on the optical axis 33 and extending the service life of the optical axis 33. In order to accelerate the downward movement speed of the bottom plate 2, a compression spring 331 is sleeved on the optical axis 33. The two ends of the compression spring 331 are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom plate 2 and the pressing plate 12. When the first cylinder 31 drives the cylinder push block 32 away from the pressing plate 12, the compression spring 331 drives the bottom plate 2 to move downward, accelerating the processing efficiency.

[0036] As Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown in the figure, on one side of the bottom plate 2 away from the first cylinder 31, there is a limiting groove 22 for limiting both sides of the workpiece 4. Both the upper and lower ends of the limiting groove 22 are open. A preloading pin 23 is arranged in the limiting groove 22. The preloading pin 23 is horizontally arranged on the side wall of the limiting groove 22. The top blocks of the two preloading pins 23 respectively abut against the mutually remote sides of the two workpieces 4. The top blocks are conical blocks. When the workpiece is placed in the limiting groove 22, the workpiece 4 drives the top block to overcome the spring in the preloading pin 23 and move. Through the preloading pin 23, the workpiece 4 is pre-fixed on one side, which is convenient for the subsequent clamping of the workpiece 4 by the bottom plate 2 and the pressing plate 12. On the bottom plate 2, there is an inclined surface insert block 24 for supporting the workpiece 4. The inclined surface insert block 24 is fixedly arranged on the lower side of the limiting groove 22. The side of the inclined surface insert block 24 close to the workpiece 4 is an inclined surface. On the side of the workpiece 4 close to the bottom plate 2, there is a first inclined surface 42. The inclined surface of the inclined surface insert block 24 abuts against the first inclined surface 42 of the workpiece 4. The inclined surface insert block 24 is detachably connected to the bottom plate 2. By replacing different inclined surface insert blocks 24, the stable support for workpieces 4 of different models is realized, and the stability of the workpiece 4 during the processing is enhanced. On the bottom plate 2, there is a groove 25 for placing the lower end part of the workpiece 4, which reduces the contact area between the bottom plate 2 and the workpiece 4 and is convenient for taking out the workpiece 4. At the same time, the iron filings generated during the processing of the workpiece 4 fall into the groove 25, reducing the interference caused during the processing of the workpiece.

[0037] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, in order to improve the positioning accuracy of the workpiece 4, on the upper end surface of the bottom plate 2, there is a positioning pin 21 for limiting the workpiece 4. The mounting hole 41 on the upper part of the workpiece 4 can be correspondingly inserted into the positioning pin 21. The positioning pin 21 and the limiting groove 22 cooperate with each other to realize the precise positioning of the position of the workpiece 4. In order to facilitate the insertion of the workpiece 4 into the positioning pin 21, the upper end surface of the positioning pin 21 is diamond-shaped, and there is a chamfer on the upper side edge of the positioning pin 21.

[0038] As Figure 1 shown, on the pressing plate 12, there is a through hole 122 for the drill bit to pass through. The drill bit passes through the through hole 122 to perform tapping on the upper end surface of the workpiece 4.

[0039] The implementation principle of this embodiment is:

[0040] By placing the workpiece 4 in the limiting groove 22, the preloading pin 23 squeezes the side wall of the workpiece 4, and then the mounting hole 41 on the workpiece 4 is correspondingly inserted into the positioning pin 21 to realize the pre-fixation of the workpiece 4. Start the first cylinder 31, and the cylinder push block 32 moves towards the side close to the workpiece 4, driving the bottom plate 2 to move upward. The upper end surface of the bottom plate 2 and the lower end surface of the pressing plate 12 cooperate with each other to clamp the workpiece 4.

[0041] The embodiments of this specific implementation manner are all preferred embodiments of this application, and do not limit the protection scope of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of this application shall be covered within the protection scope of this application.
