[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a fixture for an oil pump housing, comprising a mounting base 1, two groups of rotary pressing cylinders 2, a plurality of supporting parts 3 and a plurality of first cylinders 4.

[0029] The mounting base 1 can be in a plate shape, for mounting the remaining components and mounting the fixture to a machining center.

[0030] Two groups of rotary pressing cylinders 2, one group is arranged at the first side position on the top surface of the mounting base 1, and the other group is arranged at the opposite second side position. For the convenience of subsequent description of the orientation, the direction between the first side position and the second side position is set as the transverse direction. In the drawings, the numbers of the two groups of rotary pressing cylinders 2 are one and two respectively.

[0031] A plurality of supporting parts 3 are arranged on the top surface of the mounting base 1, between the two groups of rotary pressing cylinders 2. Each supporting part 3 includes a supporting column 3a for fixedly connecting with the mounting base 1 and a positioning pin 3b on the top surface of the supporting column 3a. More specifically, a plurality of hole positions are selected on the oil pump housing for positioning. According to the positions of these selected hole positions, the plurality of supporting parts 3 are correspondingly distributed on the top surface of the mounting base 1, and the heights of the supporting columns 3a in the plurality of supporting parts 3 can also be different.

[0032] In some embodiments, the positioning pin 3b is detachably connected to the supporting part 3. More specifically, the bottom surface of the positioning pin 3b can have a threaded section, and the top surface of the supporting part 3 can have a mating threaded hole.

[0033] The positioning pin 3b with different diameters can be replaced to better adapt to the hole positions on the oil pump housing.

[0034] When the rotary pressing cylinder 2 is at the upper limit position, the swing arm 2a of the rotary pressing cylinder 2 is vertical and will not interfere with the installation of the oil pump housing onto the multiple support portions 3. Process of installing the oil pump housing onto the multiple support portions 3: The oil pump housing is aligned through multiple positioning pins 3b and inserted downward into the positioning pins 3b. The positioning pins 3b restrict the movement and rotation of the oil pump housing, and the top surface of the support column 3a supports the oil pump housing. The rotary pressing cylinder 2 switches to the lower limit position, the swing arm 2a rotates to the horizontal position, reaches above the oil pump housing, and presses the oil pump housing downward.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 4 , in some embodiments, a pressing block 2a1 is fixedly connected to the swing arm 2a of the rotary pressing cylinder 2, and the pressing block 2a1 can also be adjusted vertically in its fixed position on the swing arm 2a. More specifically, threaded through holes are provided on the swing arm 2a; the pressing block 2a1 is columnar and is threadedly connected to the threaded through holes.

[0036] Adjusting the lower limit position of the rotary pressing cylinder 2 is not convenient. When the rotary pressing cylinder 2 switches to the lower limit position, if there is still a gap between the pressing block 2a1 and the oil pump housing, instead of adjusting the lower limit position of the rotary pressing cylinder 2, the pressing block 2a1 can be rotated to adjust the pressing block 2a1 so that the pressing block 2a1 moves downward to press the oil pump housing.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in some embodiments, when the rotary pressing cylinder 2 is at the lower limit position, each rotary pressing cylinder 2 corresponds to a support portion 3. Correspondingly, if a pressing block 2a1 is provided on the swing arm 2a of the rotary pressing cylinder 2, then the pressing block 2a1 corresponds to the support portion 3.

[0038] The swing arm 2a of the rotary pressing cylinder 2 can press the oil pump housing more tightly, cooperate with the support portion 3 directly below, clamp the oil pump housing, and make the fixation of the oil pump housing more stable.

[0039] A plurality of first cylinders 4 are arranged on the top surface of the mounting seat 1 and are located between two groups of rotary pressing cylinders 2.

[0040] When the plurality of first cylinders 4 are at the lower limit position, they are used to support the oil pump housing together with the multiple support portions 3, and when at the upper limit position, they are used to eject the oil pump housing to separate the oil pump housing from the positioning pins 3b.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 5 , in some embodiments, a connecting block 4a is fixedly connected to the piston rod of the first cylinder 4, and the connecting block 4a can also be adjusted vertically in its fixed position on the piston rod. More specifically, threaded holes can be provided on the connecting block 4a, and a mating threaded section is provided at the top of the piston rod.

[0042] The lower limit position adjustment of the first cylinder 4 is inconvenient. When the first cylinder 4 switches to the lower limit position, if there is still a gap between the piston rod and the oil pump housing, instead of adjusting the lower limit position of the first cylinder 4, the connecting block 4a can be rotated to adjust the connecting block 4a so that the connecting block 4a moves upward to press against the oil pump housing.

[0043] The rotary pressing cylinder 2 and the first cylinder 4 can be controlled by two solenoid valves 5 respectively. More specifically, a three-way 5a, a four-way 5b and a hose can be used to form the corresponding gas path. The two solenoid valves 5 respectively switch all the rotary pressing cylinders 2 between the upper limit position and the lower limit position, and switch all the first cylinders 4 between the upper limit position and the lower limit position. The rotary pressing cylinder 2 is at the upper limit position, and the first cylinder 4 is at the lower limit position; place the oil pump housing; the rotary pressing cylinder 2 switches to the lower limit position and presses the oil pump housing; the oil pump housing is processed; the rotary pressing cylinder returns to the upper limit position; the first cylinder 4 switches to the upper limit position and ejects the oil pump housing; take out the oil pump housing; the first cylinder 4 returns to the lower limit position.

[0044] Taking the rotary pressing cylinder 2 as an example, when the electromagnet on the first side of the solenoid valve 5 is energized and the electromagnet on the second side is de-energized, the gas enters from the first air port 2b of the rotary pressing cylinder 2, causing the piston rod of the rotary pressing cylinder 2 to move downward (for the rotary pressing cylinder 2, the piston rod will also rotate during the downward movement, and the rotation angle can be 90 degrees), and the gas in the cylinder body is discharged from the second air port 2c; when the electromagnets on both the first side and the second side of the solenoid valve 5 are de-energized, the gas cannot enter the rotary pressing cylinder 2, and the gas in the cylinder body cannot leave either, and the piston rod of the rotary pressing cylinder 2 remains in the current position; when the electromagnet on the first side of the solenoid valve 5 is de-energized and the electromagnet on the second side is energized, the gas enters from the second air port 2c of the rotary pressing cylinder 2, causing the piston rod of the rotary pressing cylinder 2 to move upward, and the gas in the cylinder body is discharged from the first air port 2b.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3, in some embodiments, the plurality of first cylinders 4 are all single-acting cylinders of the spring return pre-extension type. That is, for the first cylinder 4, the air from the air pump overcomes the spring in the cylinder body to move the piston rod down to the lower limit and maintain it at the lower limit; the piston rod moves up to the upper limit and is maintained at the upper limit by the spring. Only the first air port 2b on the first cylinder 4 needs to be connected to the solenoid valve 5. Correspondingly, one solenoid valve 5 can be used to control the rotary pressing cylinder 2 and the first cylinder 4. The rotary pressing cylinder 2 and the first cylinder 4 are at the upper limit; place the oil pump housing and manually press down the oil pump housing to make it enter the positioning pin 3b. Correspondingly, the piston rod of the first cylinder 4 moves down; the rotary pressing cylinder 2 and the first cylinder 4 are switched to the lower limit to press the oil pump housing; the processing of the oil pump housing is completed; the rotary pressing cylinder 2 and the first cylinder 4 are restored to the upper limit. In this process, the rotary pressing cylinder 2 resumes relatively faster and first contacts the pressing of the oil pump housing, while the first cylinder 4 resumes relatively slower and then ejects the oil pump housing; take out the oil pump housing.

[0046] Since the upper limit of the first cylinder 4 is only used to eject the oil pump housing and the accuracy requirement is not high, a single-acting cylinder can be used to meet the requirement. At the same time, the setting of the air circuit between the solenoid valve 5 can be made simpler.
