Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of processing and manufacturing equipment, in particular to a bidirectional positioning mechanism. Background Art

[0002] During the labeling process for PC protective covers, the covers need to be positioned uniformly throughout the labeling process to ensure consistency across the production process. However, manual loading is often used in actual production, making it impossible to guarantee consistent positioning of each cover.

[0003] Chinese patent publication number CN218612982U discloses a pneumatic side-push positioning and clamping device comprising a base, a clamping box connected to the base via a height adjustment assembly, a first slide opening on each of the left and right sides of the upper end surface of the clamping box, a first clamping plate slidably connected to the first slide opening, a second slide opening on each of the front and rear sides of the upper end surface of the clamping box, a second clamping plate slidably connected to the second slide opening, and a drive assembly connected between the first and second clamping plates. During use, a sheet metal part is placed on the clamping box, and the drive assembly then drives the left and right first clamping plates to move relative to each other. Simultaneously, the drive assembly drives the front and rear second clamping plates to move relative to each other, thereby positioning the four sides of the sheet metal part, effectively improving the positioning effect of the sheet metal part. The height adjustment assembly can adjust the height of the sheet metal part, making it suitable for people of different heights. When using the above solution to position PC protective covers, it was found that only one PC protective cover could be positioned at a time. After the equipment completed production of a product, it had to wait for the operator to position the next product before continuing production. This affects production efficiency. If continuous production is required, multiple clamping devices need to be prepared, thereby increasing equipment costs. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0019] See also Figure 1-2 As shown, the bidirectional positioning mechanism of the present invention is used to position the PC protective cover by placing it inside the bidirectional positioning mechanism. The external labeling device then applies the company's logo or pattern to the outer surface of the PC protective cover, ensuring that all logos or patterns on the PC protective cover are positioned uniformly.

[0020] The device comprises a rectangular support plate 01 for holding a PC cover. Multiple baffles 02 are positioned on its surface, extending along its width. Two first clamping plates 03 are symmetrically positioned along its length. Receiving slots 04 for the PC cover are located between the two first clamping plates 03 and adjacent baffles 02. Each slot 04 is flanked by a second clamping plate 05, located along the width of the support plate 01 and adjacent to the baffles 02. When the PC cover is placed in a slot 04, the two first clamping plates 03 move toward each other, while the second clamping plates 05 move along the length of the support plate 01. This secures the PC cover within the slot 04 and positions it in place, facilitating labeling by external labeling equipment.

[0021] See also Figure 2As shown, to enable the two first clamping plates 03 to move toward each other during operation, two first thin telescopic cylinders 06 are symmetrically fixed to the bottom of the support plate 01. The output ends of the two first thin telescopic cylinders 06 extend in opposite directions, and the output end of each first thin telescopic cylinder 06 is fixedly connected to the corresponding first clamping plate 03. Similarly, a cylinder or other existing technology can be used to act on the first clamping plates 03 to cause them to move back and forth linearly on both sides of the support plate 01. When the output ends of the first thin telescopic cylinders 06 are in the extended position, the two first clamping plates 03 move in opposite directions away from the support plate 01, increasing the length of the receiving slot 04 and facilitating the placement of the PC protective cover within the receiving slot 04. Conversely, the output ends of the first thin telescopic cylinders 06 are in the retracted position. The two first clamping plates 03 move downward toward the support plate 01, decreasing the length of the receiving slot 04 and positioning the PC protective cover within the receiving slot 04.

[0022] See also Figure 2 As shown, to enable the second clamping plate 05 to move within the receiving groove 04, a second thin telescopic cylinder 07 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the support plate 01. The second thin telescopic cylinder 07 and the two first thin telescopic cylinders 06 are arranged perpendicular to each other. The output end of the second thin telescopic cylinder 07 is fixedly connected to the second clamping plate 05. Its operating principle is the same as that of the first thin telescopic cylinder 06.

[0023] In order to achieve the positioning of PC sleeves of different sizes. Two notches 10 are provided on both sides of each accommodating groove 04 along the width direction of the support plate 01. A first clamping block 08 adapted to the notch 10 is provided on the first clamping plate 03. When the first thin telescopic cylinder 06 is working, the first clamping block 08 moves in the notch 10. At the same time, the distance between the two notches 10 on the same horizontal plane and along the width direction of the support plate 01 is the minimum clamping distance. When the output end of the first thin telescopic cylinder 06 is in the extended state, the distance between the two first clamping plates 03 is the maximum clamping distance. That is to say, when the length of the PC protective sleeve is between the distance between the two notches 10 in the width direction of the support plate 01 and the distance between the two first clamping plates 03, PC protective sleeves of different lengths can be clamped.

[0024] See also Figure 2 As shown, two sliding holes 09 are provided within the receiving groove 04 along the length of the support plate 01. Both sliding holes 09 are adjacent to the baffle plate 02. A second clamping block 12 is provided on the second clamping plate 05 to mate with the sliding holes 09. When the second thin telescopic cylinder 07 is activated, the second clamping block 12 moves within the sliding holes 09. Similarly, the provision of sliding holes 09 allows PC protective covers of varying widths to be clamped, enabling the production of PC protective covers that meet various specifications.

[0025] An accommodating opening 11 connected to the sliding hole 09 is provided on the baffle 02. The width of the accommodating opening 11 is adapted to the second clamping block 12. When the output end of the second thin telescopic cylinder 07 is in an extended state, the second clamping block 12 is located in the accommodating opening 11, so that the area of the accommodating groove 04 is in a maximum state, which is convenient for the operator to take the PC protective cover from the accommodating groove 04.

[0026] See also Figure 2 As shown, the second clamping plate 05 includes a fixed plate 13 fixedly connected to the output end of the second thin telescopic cylinder 07. The fixed plate 13 is arranged along the width direction of the support plate 01. The two ends of the support plate 01 are horizontally installed with connecting plates 14 through fasteners. The above-mentioned second clamping block 12 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 14.

[0027] See also Figure 1 As shown, support rods 15 are fixedly installed on the four corners of the support plate 01 through fasteners, and the support rods 15 are used to connect with external equipment (such as labeling equipment or conveying equipment, etc.).

[0028] When using the present invention, the output ends of the first thin telescopic cylinder 06 and the second thin telescopic cylinder 07 are first extended, maximizing the area within the receiving slot 04. The operator then places the PC protective cover within the receiving slot 04. Finally, the output ends of the first thin telescopic cylinder 06 and the second thin telescopic cylinder 07 are retracted. During this retraction process, the two first clamping plates 03 move toward each other in the direction of the support plate 01, and the second clamping plate 05 moves along the length of the support plate 01, clamping and positioning the PC protective cover within the receiving slot 04.

[0029] It should be noted that, for the sake of clarity of description, the fasteners described in this application are any one of screws, bolts, and screws.

[0030] If the embodiments of the present invention involve directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.), such directional indications are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the various components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0031] The above embodiments are merely descriptions of preferred embodiments of the present invention and do not limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by ordinary engineering technicians in this field should fall within the scope of protection determined by the claims of the present invention.
