[0043] The specific contents of the present invention are further explained in detail below with reference to the embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0044] Unless otherwise specified, all components in the present invention are components known in the prior art.

[0045] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the following specific embodiments, and all equivalent modifications made on the basis of the technical solution of this application fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0046] Example 1:

[0047] This embodiment provides an adjustable machine tool fixture with two holes for positioning on one side, as shown in FIG1 , comprising a fixture body 1 and a positioning unit 2 and a clamping unit 3 mounted on the fixture body 1 .

[0048] The positioning unit 2 includes two pairs of positioning component installation grooves 2 - 1 provided on the clamp body 1 and two positioning components 2 - 2 installed in the positioning component installation grooves 2 - 1 . The positioning component installation grooves 2 - 1 pass through the clamp body 1 .

[0049] The two pairs of positioning component installation grooves 2-1 are distributed in an eight-shaped manner on both sides of the symmetry axis of the clamp body 1, and the two positioning components 2-2 are arbitrarily installed in the positioning component installation grooves 2-1.

[0050] A cylindrical pin is installed on one of the positioning components 2-2, and a diamond pin is installed on the other positioning component 2-2.

[0051] The two locating pins and the two locating holes at the bottom of the workpiece have a tight clearance fit; there is a tolerance error in the center distance of the locating holes. If the two pins are cylindrical pins, the two pins on the fixture cannot "accurately" fit with the two holes of the workpiece and cannot be installed.

[0052] When one of the pins is a diamond-shaped pin, the center-to-center distance error of the locating holes cannot interfere with the fit of the two pins and holes. From the perspective of positioning and limiting degrees of freedom, the two cylindrical pins are over-positioned. The long axis of the diamond-shaped pin must be perpendicular to the centerline connecting the two pin holes; otherwise, the diamond-shaped pin loses its effectiveness.

[0053] The clamping unit 3 includes a pair of clamping assembly mounting grooves 3 - 1 provided on the clamping body 1 and two clamping assemblies 3 - 2 mounted in each clamping assembly mounting groove 3 - 1 . The clamping assembly mounting grooves 3 - 1 pass through the clamping body 1 .

[0054] The clamping assembly installation grooves 3 - 1 are distributed in parallel on both sides of the symmetry axis of the clamp body 1 , and the clamping assembly installation grooves 3 - 1 are located outside the positioning assembly installation grooves 2 - 1 .

[0055] In this embodiment, the end with the smaller spacing between the lower pair of positioning component mounting grooves 2-1 is located in the middle of the end with the larger spacing between the upper pair of positioning component mounting grooves 2-1, and the line connecting the end with the smaller spacing between the lower pair of positioning component mounting grooves 2-1 and the end with the larger spacing between the upper pair of positioning component mounting grooves 2-1 passes through the geometric center of the clamp body 1.

[0056] The advantage of using two pairs of "eight"-shaped positioning component mounting slots is that they can better adapt to changes in the center distance between the two positioning holes of the workpiece. For example, if the workpiece positioning holes are in the middle of the workpiece and the distance is large, the upper positioning component mounting slot can be used. If the workpiece positioning holes are in the middle of the workpiece but the distance is small, the lower positioning component mounting slot can be used.

[0057] As a preferred embodiment of this invention:

[0058] The clamp body 1 is divided into two layers, namely a disc-shaped clamp body base 1-1 and a rectangular clamp body platform 1-2 located at the geometric center of one side of the clamp body base 1-1.

[0059] The clamp base 1-1 is radially provided with a plurality of clamp installation connection grooves 1-3, and the positioning component installation groove 2-1 and the clamping component installation groove 3-1 are provided on the clamp base 1-2 and pass through the clamp base 1-1 and the clamp base 1-2.

[0060] In this embodiment, the fixture installation connecting grooves 1-3 are four radial grooves to accommodate fixture installation holes distributed on different circumferences.

[0061] As a preferred embodiment of this invention:

[0062] A step is further provided in the positioning component installation groove 2-1, and the wider side of the positioning component installation groove 2-1 faces away from the clamping base 1-2.

[0063] A step is further provided in the clamping assembly installation slot 3 - 1 , and the wider side of the clamping assembly installation slot 3 - 1 faces away from the clamping base 1 - 2 .

[0064] As a preferred embodiment of this invention:

[0065] The positioning assembly 2-2 is divided into three parts, namely a positioning pin connector 2-2-1, a positioning locking slider 2-2-2, and a positioning locking bolt 2-2-3.

[0066] The positioning pin connector 2-2-1 is divided into two parts, namely the positioning locking mounting block 2-2-1-1 and the positioning pin mounting column 2-2-1-2 located on one side of the positioning locking mounting block 2-2-1-1. The positioning pin mounting column 2-2-1-2 is cylindrical in shape, and a positioning pin mounting hole 2-2-1-3 is provided at the end facing away from the positioning locking mounting block 2-2-1-1.

[0067] A locking slider mounting threaded hole 2-2-1-4 is provided on the side of the positioning locking mounting block 2-2-1-1 facing away from the positioning pin mounting column 2-2-1-2, and a positioning locking slider 2-2-2 is mounted on the locking slider mounting threaded hole 2-2-1-4.

[0068] The positioning locking slide block 2-2-2 is connected to the positioning locking mounting block 2-2-1-1 via a positioning locking bolt 2-2-3.

[0069] The positioning pin mounting hole 2-2-1-3 faces the direction of the clamping base 1-2, and the positioning locking slider 2-2-2 cooperates with the step in the positioning component mounting groove 2-1. The positioning component 2-2 can be fixed at different positions in the positioning component mounting groove 2-1 to accommodate workpieces 4 of different sizes.

[0070] As a preferred embodiment of this invention:

[0071] The clamping assembly 3-2 includes a support plate 3-2-1, a hexagon socket bolt 3-2-3 and a gasket 3-2-4.

[0072] The support plate 3-2-1 is provided with a support hole 3-2-2, a hexagon socket bolt 3-2-3 is passed through the support hole 3-2-2, and a gasket 3-2-4 is arranged between the hexagon socket bolt 3-2-3 and the support hole 3-2-2.

[0073] The gasket 3-2-4 faces away from the clamping base 1-2, and the support plate 3-2-1 cooperates with the step in the clamping assembly mounting groove 3-1. The clamping assembly 3-2 can be fixed in different positions in the clamping assembly mounting groove 3-1 to accommodate workpieces 4 of different sizes.

[0074] As a preferred embodiment of this invention:

[0075] The clamp installation connection groove 1-3 is open toward one side of the edge of the clamp base 1-1, and the positioning locking slider 2-2-2 is connected to the positioning pin connector 2-2-1 through a bolt.

[0076] The specific usage of this embodiment is as follows:

[0077] When the traditional two-hole positioning is used, the positioning pin is first fixed on the fixture. When the utility model is clamping the workpiece, the positioning ends of the diamond pin 5 and the cylindrical pin 6 are first inserted into the positioning holes of the workpiece 4. Figure 7 shown.

[0078] like Figure 8 As shown, the lower surface of the workpiece 4 is aligned with the side of the clamping base 1-2 facing away from the clamping base 1-1. During this process, the mounting ends of the diamond pins 5 and cylindrical pins 6 are aligned with the positioning assembly mounting slots 4 to approximately the correct position. Next, the positioning assembly 2-2 is installed to mate with the cylindrical pins 6 and pre-tighten. Simultaneously, the clamping assembly 3-2 is installed according to the threaded hole position of the workpiece 4 and pre-tightened.

[0079] Fine-tune the clamp body 1 and install the other positioning component 2-2, so that the other positioning component 2-2 can smoothly cooperate with the diamond pin 5. At this time, tighten the bolts to complete the positioning. After that, tighten the hexagon socket bolts 3-2-3 to complete the clamping.

[0080] The traditional two-hole positioning process involves first installing two locating pins in fixed positions on the fixture, then fitting the workpiece onto the two locating pins. This can lead to deformation of the workpiece or the fixture after clamping if there's an error between the center-to-center distance between the workpiece's locating holes and the center-to-center distance between the locating pins. This patented method first inserts the locating pins into the workpiece's locating holes, then uses a locating assembly that moves along the locating assembly's mounting slot to align with the locating pins, eliminating errors and ensuring accurate positioning.

[0081] The utility model discloses an adjustable machine tool clamp with two holes for positioning on one side, which has reasonable design, adopts a simple mechanical structure, has low cost, and makes the clamping operation simple and efficient through reverse thinking, and is easy to promote and use.

[0082] The above technical solutions are only preferred specific implementation methods of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be thought of by any technician familiar with the field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention without creative work are all covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
