It should also be understood that terms defined in a general dictionary, such as those, should be interpreted as having meanings consistent with their meanings in the context of the relevant art, and should not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense, unless specifically defined as such herein.

[0030] Techniques, methods, and devices known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the techniques, methods, and devices should be regarded as part of the specification.

[0031] Refer to Figures 1 to 4 , the present disclosure provides a jig for a positioning tooling, including a base 1, a plurality of positioning components 2 connected to the base 1, and the positioning components 2 are arranged along the circumferential side of the base 1;

[0032] A driving component 4, and the driving component 4 can drive the positioning component 2 to move away from or close to the circumferential side of the base 1 to limit the workpiece on the base 1.

[0033] In the present disclosure, the driving component 4 mainly includes a telescopic cylinder 401. The controller is connected to the solenoid valve of the telescopic cylinder 401 through a signal line. The controller sends an electrical signal to the solenoid valve, thereby controlling the telescopic action of the telescopic cylinder 401. By automatically controlling the action of the telescopic cylinder 401 by the controller, the precise movement of the positioning component 2 is realized without manual intervention. Different working modes or programs are preset according to processing requirements to realize diversified operation processes.

[0034] By controlling the moving distance of the positioning component 2 by the driving component 4, it is ensured that the workpiece can be accurately positioned at the required position, significantly improving the positioning accuracy. During this process, the time of manual intervention is reduced, the processing cycle is accelerated, and the overall production efficiency is improved. In addition, the positioning component 2 can pre-adjust the size of the workpiece, so that the same set of jig can be applied to the positioning of workpieces of multiple specifications.

[0035] In the present disclosure, a bracket may be provided at the bottom of the base 1, and the bracket refers to Figure 2 andFigure 3 , a positioning component 2 and a driving component 4 are installed on the bracket. The fixture of the positioning tool provided by the present disclosure can be applied to any workpiece that needs to be positioned before processing, such as glass, photovoltaic panels, circuit boards, etc. The following positioning process takes glass as an example. First, ensure that the fixture is in the initial state, and all positioning components 2 are away from the peripheral side of the base 1 to facilitate the placement of the glass to be processed. The glass to be processed is placed on the base 1. At this time, the workpiece is not subject to any restrictions. The operator starts the driving component 4 (such as a motor), and the driving component 4 starts to drive each positioning component 2. As the driving component 4 works, the positioning component 2 gradually approaches the peripheral side of the base 1. When the positioning component 2 contacts the glass, it will gently press the glass according to the preset pressure value (the positioning component 2 is equipped with a sensor and connected to the control system of the equipment) to ensure that it is stably fixed in the correct position. After the glass is firmly positioned, the required processing operations, such as cutting, drilling, etc., can be performed. After completing the processing task, the driving component 4 works in the reverse direction to keep the positioning component 2 away from the workpiece, release the limit on the glass, and the operator removes the processed glass from the base 1.

[0036] In some embodiments, the driving component 4 includes a telescopic cylinder 401 installed on the base 1. The telescopic cylinder 401 is connected to the positioning component 2 through a rod 402. The telescopic cylinder 401 usually has a high structural rigidity and can effectively resist external force interference to ensure that the positioning component 2 remains stable during operation.

[0037] In some embodiments, the telescopic cylinder 401 is a pneumatic cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder. The pneumatic cylinder uses air as the working medium, which will not pollute the environment. The compressibility of the gas is low, and the movement speed of the pneumatic cylinder is fast. The hydraulic oil of the hydraulic cylinder is not easily compressed. By adjusting the flow and pressure, the speed and acceleration of the hydraulic cylinder can be controlled, so the positioning accuracy of the hydraulic cylinder is relatively high. The selection of the telescopic cylinder 401 is determined according to the specific application scenario.

[0038] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 The driving component 4 further includes a guide member 3, which includes a guide rail 301 mounted on the base 1 and a slider 302 sleeved in the guide rail 301, and the slider 302 is connected to the positioning component 2. The guide rail 301 is mounted on the base 1, and is usually fixed by screws or other fixing methods to ensure its stability. The guide rail 301 provides a guide track for the slider 302 to ensure that the slider 302 moves along a predetermined track to reduce lateral swing or offset. At the same time, the guide member 3 limits the freedom of the positioning component 2 by providing additional support, reduces shaking or vibration during movement, and improves the stability of the movement of the positioning component 2.

[0039] Regarding the motion state of the guiding member 3, it should be noted that when the driving member 4 is started, it drives the slider 302 to move along the guide rail 301, and the movement of the slider 302 further drives the positioning member 2 connected thereto to move away from or close to the peripheral side of the base 1.

[0040] In some embodiments, the driving member 4 further includes a plate member 201 provided on one side or multiple sides of the base 1. The positioning member 2 is provided on the plate member 201, and both the slider 302 and the rod member 402 are connected to the plate member 201 to install the baffle 202, so that the positioning member 2 can be evenly distributed along the peripheral side of the base 1, and the workpiece can be evenly stressed during positioning. In addition, by connecting the plate member 201 to the driving member 4, it is beneficial to replace or adjust the positioning member 2 without disassembling the entire device.

[0041] In some embodiments, the positioning member 2 includes at least one baffle 202 installed on the plate member 201. The plate member 201 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes, and the baffle 202 is provided with a plurality of waist-shaped holes 7. The mounting holes and the waist-shaped holes 7 are adapted to connect the plate member 201 and the baffle 202 through a connecting member 6. The connecting member 6 is a bolt or a screw to lock the plate member 201 and the baffle 202. The connecting member 6 abuts against the plate member 201. The mounting holes and the waist-shaped holes 7 are adapted to connect the plate member 201 and the baffle 202 through the connecting member 6, so that when the driving member 4 is not working, the baffle 202 can be adjusted to move away from or close to the peripheral side of the base 1, and the length direction of the waist-shaped hole 7 is used as the travel path, which is beneficial for the jig of the positioning tooling to position workpieces of different specifications. The baffle 202 can not only adjust the distance between it and the peripheral side of the base 1 through the driving member 4, but also fix the baffle 202 at different positions on the plate member 201 through the connecting member 6 to further adjust the distance between it and the peripheral side of the base 1, so as to form a larger applicable range.

[0042] In some embodiments, a gasket 13 is provided between the connecting member 6 and the baffle 202. The gasket 13 is provided with through holes 14 corresponding to the mounting holes. When the connecting member 6 passes through these through holes 14 and is locked, the gasket 13 can play a role in preventing loosening. Even under the influence of factors such as vibration during long-term use, it can maintain a good connection state and reduce the safety hazard caused by the loosening of the bolt. The gasket 13 effectively disperses the pressure exerted by the connecting member 6 on the baffle 202 and avoids deformation or damage caused by excessive local stress.

[0043] In some embodiments, the plate member 201 is provided with a chute 11 arranged along the length direction of the plate member 201. The baffle 202 is provided with a convex platform that can be slidably connected to the chute 11. This enables the baffle 202 not only to move away from or close to the peripheral side of the base 1, but also to move along the trajectory of the peripheral side of the base 1, thereby changing the part of the positioning member 2 that contacts the workpiece, which is beneficial for the positioning of special-shaped workpieces.

[0044] In some embodiments, a plurality of air holes 12 are provided on the base 1, and each air hole 12 is connected to a vacuum generator. After positioning, the workpiece is adsorbed on the base 1.

[0045] In some embodiments, a limiting block 9 is provided on the positioning member 2, and a limiting groove 10 corresponding to the limiting block 9 is provided on the base 1 to prevent the driving member 4 from moving beyond the stroke and damaging the device.

[0046] To better understand the technical solution of the present disclosure, the following is described in conjunction with relatively preferred technical features.

[0047] The present disclosure provides a jig for a positioning tooling, including: a base 1, the base 1 is connected with a plurality of positioning members 2, the positioning members 2 are arranged along the circumferential side of the base 1, the positioning member 2 includes at least one baffle 202 mounted on a plate member 201, a plurality of mounting holes are provided on the plate member 201, a plurality of waist-shaped holes 7 are provided on the baffle 202, and the mounting holes and the waist-shaped holes 7 are adapted to connect the plate member 201 and the baffle 202 through a connecting member 6. A gasket 13 is arranged between the connecting member 6 and the baffle 202, and a through hole 14 corresponding to the mounting hole is provided on the gasket 13. A sliding groove 11 is provided on the plate member 201, the sliding groove 11 is arranged along the length direction of the plate member 201, a convex platform capable of slidingly connecting with the sliding groove 11 is provided on the baffle 202, a limiting block 9 is provided on the plate member 201, a limiting groove 10 corresponding to the limiting block 9 is provided on the base 1, and the driving member 4 can drive the positioning member 2 to move away from or close to the circumferential side of the base 1 to limit the workpiece on the base 1. The driving member 4 includes a telescopic cylinder 401 mounted on the base 1, the telescopic cylinder 401 is connected to the positioning member 2 through a rod 402, the telescopic cylinder 401 is a cylinder, the driving member 4 further includes a guiding member 3, the guiding member 3 includes a guide rail 301 mounted on the base 1 and a slider 302 sleeved in the guide rail 301, and the slider 302 is connected to the positioning member 2. The driving member 4 further includes a plate member 201 provided on one side or multiple sides of the base 1, the positioning member 2 is arranged on the plate member 201, and both the slider 302 and the rod 402 are connected to the plate member 201. A plurality of air holes 12 are provided on the base 1, and each air hole 12 is connected to a vacuum generator.

[0048] Regarding the working process of the jig for the positioning tooling, it should be noted that:

[0049] Preparation stage: First, ensure that all components have been correctly installed on the base 1, including the positioning member 2 (baffle 202), the driving member 4 (telescopic cylinder 401, rod 402), the guiding member 3 (guide rail 301 and slider 302), etc. Check whether the air holes 12 on the base 1 have been correctly connected to the vacuum generator to ensure that the vacuum system can operate normally;

[0050] Initial position adjustment: Adjust the position of the baffle 202 relative to the base 1 so that it is at an appropriate position on the circumferential side of the base 1. Tighten the connecting member 6 to lock the baffle 202 to the plate member 201. The boss on the baffle 202 is slidably connected to the chute 11 on the plate member 201. The boss slides along the chute 11 until the baffle 202 moves to the predetermined position and stops. Then, control the cylinder to drive the rod member 402 to move, thereby causing the positioning member 2 to slide along the slider 302 on the guide rail 301, so that the baffle 202 is away from the base 1 to facilitate the placement of the glass workpiece to be processed.

[0051] Placement and processing: Place the glass workpiece to be processed on the base 1. Start the telescopic cylinder 401 to contract it. Push the baffle 202 along the guide rail 301 towards the center of the base 1 through the rod member 402. After positioning is completed, turn on the vacuum generator to generate negative pressure through the air holes 12 on the base 1 to adsorb the glass workpiece on the base 1. After the glass is firmly positioned, the required processing operations, such as cutting, drilling, etc., can be performed.

[0052] Release of fixation and workpiece removal: After processing is completed, turn off the vacuum generator to release the adsorption of the workpiece. Start the telescopic cylinder 401 again to extend it, and drive the baffle 202 back to the initial position through the rod member 402 to facilitate the removal of the processed glass workpiece.

[0053] The above solution has the following advantages. By controlling the moving distance of the baffle 202 through the telescopic cylinder 401, it is ensured that the workpiece can be accurately positioned at the required position, significantly improving the positioning accuracy. During this process, the time of manual intervention is reduced, the processing cycle is accelerated, and the overall production efficiency is improved. In addition, the positioning baffle 202 can pre-adjust the size of the workpiece, enabling the same set of jigs to be applied to the positioning of workpieces of multiple specifications.
