[0036] As Figures 1-6 shown, a fixture positioning pin with a detection function includes: a base 100 and a pin body 200.

[0037] Among them, the base 100 is provided with a receiving cavity 110 and a detection hole 120. The detection hole 120 communicates with the receiving cavity 110, and the receiving cavity 110 includes a first position and a second position.

[0038] Wherein, the pin body 200 is movably connected to the base 100 and is located in the accommodation cavity 110, and the pin body 200 can move to the first position or the second position.

[0039] Wherein, when the pin body 200 is located at the first position, the detection hole 120 is aligned with the first ventilation space formed between the pin body 200 and the side wall of the accommodation cavity 110, and is communicated with the outside through the first ventilation space; when the pin body 200 is located at the second position, the pin body 200 contacts the side wall of the accommodation cavity 110 to seal the detection hole 120.

[0040] Specifically, when the pin body 200 is located at the second position as Figure 2 shown, when the pin body 200 is located at the first position, it moves upward compared to the position Figure 2 shown.

[0041] In this embodiment, the jig positioning pin is used to detect whether the workpiece is in place. When the workpiece is not located in the jig, the pin body 200 is located at the first position, the detection hole 120 is aligned with the first ventilation space and is communicated with the outside through the first ventilation space. When the workpiece is located in the jig, the workpiece pushes the pin body 200 to move from the first position to the second position, and the detection hole 120 is sealed. The staff can detect whether the workpiece is in place by inflating the detection hole 120 for detection.

[0042] It should be noted here that the staff can continuously inflate the detection hole 120 and detect the air pressure change of the detection hole 120. When the detection hole 120 is aligned with the first ventilation space, it is communicated with the outside, and when it is blocked, it is not communicated with the outside, so the air pressure will change.

[0043] Specifically, the first ventilation space is formed by the pin body 200 and the side wall of the accommodation cavity 110. Therefore, one of the pin body 200 or the accommodation cavity 110 can form a structure with a cavity, and the other of the two can realize the switching between the two states of the detection hole 120 being communicated with the first ventilation space and the detection hole 120 being sealed during the movement of the pin body 200 relative to the base 100.

[0044] As Figures 1-6 shown, on the basis of the above embodiment, the pin body 200 includes a first ventilation groove 210 and an air blocking portion 220. The first ventilation groove 210 is adjacent to the air blocking portion 220. When the pin body 200 is located at the first position, the detection hole 120 is aligned with the first ventilation groove 210 and is communicated with the outside through the first ventilation groove 210; when the pin body 200 is located at the second position, the detection hole 120 is aligned with the air blocking portion 220 and is sealed by the air blocking portion 220.

[0045] In this embodiment, when the pin body 200 is in the first position, the detection hole 120 is aligned with the first ventilation groove 210 and communicates with the outside through the first ventilation groove 210; when the pin body 200 is in the second position, the detection hole 120 is aligned with the air blocking portion 220 and is sealed by the air blocking portion 220. By specifically machining the pin body 200 without machining the side portion of the receiving cavity 110, the machining difficulty is greatly reduced, and at the same time, maintenance and replacement are facilitated.

[0046] As Figures 1-6 shown, on the basis of the above embodiment, the air blocking portion 220 includes a sealing member.

[0047] Among them, the sealing member can be a rubber member.

[0048] Specifically, the sealing member can be a sealing member directly sleeved on the air blocking portion 220, or the air blocking portion 220 can be directly made of a sealing material.

[0049] In this embodiment, when the pin body 200 is in the second position, the detection hole 120 is aligned with the air blocking portion 220 and is sealed by the sealing member to enhance the sealing effect of the air blocking portion 220 on the detection hole 120.

[0050] As Figures 1-6 shown, on the basis of the above embodiment, the receiving cavity 110 further includes a third position, the second position is located between the first position and the third position, and the pin body 200 can move to the third position.

[0051] When the pin body 200 is in the third position, the detection hole 120 is aligned with the third ventilation space formed between the pin body 200 and the side wall of the receiving cavity 110 and communicates with the outside through the third ventilation space.

[0052] Specifically, when the pin body 200 is in the third position, it moves downward compared to Figure 2 the position shown.

[0053] In this embodiment, the jig positioning pin can also be used to detect whether the workpiece is in place. When the workpiece exceeds the preset range of the jig (for example, two workpieces are stacked and transported to the jig), the workpiece pushes the pin body 200 to move from the second position to the third position. The detection hole 120 is aligned with the second ventilation groove 230 and communicates with the outside through the second ventilation groove 230. The staff can detect whether the workpiece is in place by inflating and detecting the detection hole 120.

[0054] As Figures 1-6As shown, on the basis of the above-described embodiment, the pin body 200 includes a second ventilation groove 230. The second ventilation groove 230 is adjacent to the air-blocking portion 220, and the air-blocking portion 220 is located between the first ventilation groove 210 and the second ventilation groove 230. When the pin body 200 is in the third position, the detection hole 120 is aligned with the second ventilation groove 230 and communicates with the outside through the second ventilation groove 230.

[0055] In this embodiment, when the pin body 200 is in the third position, the detection hole 120 is aligned with the second ventilation groove 230 and communicates with the outside through the second ventilation groove 230. By separately machining the features of the pin body 200 without machining the features on the side of the receiving cavity 110, the machining difficulty is greatly reduced, and at the same time, maintenance and replacement are facilitated.

[0056] As Figures 1-6 shown, on the basis of the above-described embodiment, a bearing spring 300 is further included. The bearing spring 300 is located in the receiving cavity 110. One end of the bearing spring 300 contacts the bottom of the base 100, and the other end of the bearing spring 300 contacts the pin body 200. The bearing spring 300 pushes the pin body 200 away from the bottom of the base 100.

[0057] In this embodiment, the bearing spring 300 pushes the pin body 200 away from the bottom of the base 100, thereby pushing the pin body 200 to move from the second position to the first position to counteract the gravity of the workpiece.

[0058] As Figures 1-6 shown, on the basis of the above-described embodiment, the base 100 is further provided with a first limiting portion 130, and the pin body 200 is provided with a second limiting portion 240. When the pin body 200 moves in the direction from the second position to the first position, the second limiting portion 240 can contact the first limiting portion 130.

[0059] Specifically, when the second limiting portion 240 contacts the first limiting portion 130, the pin body 200 is in the first position.

[0060] In this embodiment, the maximum movement range of the pin body 200 is restricted by the contact between the second limiting portion 240 and the first limiting portion 130.

[0061] As Figures 1-6 shown, on the basis of the above-described embodiment, the base 100 is further provided with a detachable mounting seat 400. One end of the bearing spring 300 contacts the mounting seat 400, and the other end of the bearing spring 300 contacts the pin body 200. The bearing spring 300 pushes the pin body 200 away from the mounting seat 400.

[0062] In this embodiment, the detachable connection manner between the mounting base 400 and the base 100 is not specifically limited. It can be a plug-in connection, or it can be a connection through fasteners, or it can be other detachable connection manners. The detachable mounting base 400 facilitates the installation of the load-bearing spring 300 and its maintenance.

[0063] As Figures 1-6 As shown, on the basis of the above embodiment, the base 100 is further provided with an internal thread, the mounting base 400 is provided with an external thread, and the mounting base 400 is threadedly connected to the internal thread of the base 100 through the external thread.

[0064] In this embodiment, since the mounting base 400 is threadedly connected to the internal thread of the base 100 through the external thread, the position of the mounting base 400 relative to the base 100 can be finely adjusted by rotating the mounting base 400, thereby adjusting the deformation range of the load-bearing spring 300.

[0065] As Figures 1-6 As shown, a fixture includes a fixture positioning pin with a detection function as described above.
