[0002] A fixture is a device used during the manufacturing process to secure a workpiece in the correct position for construction or testing. Also known as a clamp, a fixture is used to quickly, conveniently, and safely secure a workpiece, ensuring it's positioned accurately during machining or testing.

[0003] Special-shaped parts are mechanical parts that differ from standard or commonly used parts in terms of size, shape, or structure. Depending on the manufacturing method, special-shaped parts can be categorized into castings, forgings, stampings, and other types.

[0005] In the above technology, since the dimensions and shapes of special-shaped parts are different from those of common parts, special fixtures need to be customized for fixing when processing the special-shaped parts. However, the customized special fixtures have the problem of high production costs, which will additionally increase the production costs and have shortcomings. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to improve the problem of high cost of customizing special fixtures when processing special-shaped parts, the present application provides a fixture for processing special-shaped parts.

Since the support columns are installed on the base plate in a detachable manner, when fixing special-shaped parts of different external dimensions and shapes, workers only need to adjust the installation position of the support columns, and the support columns can be reused, thereby reducing the production cost of the fixture and at the same time helping to improve the versatility of the fixture.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, after the worker places the special-shaped part on the support column, the control system is used to start the clamping cylinder, and the piston rod of the clamping cylinder extends from the connecting pipe mouth on the special-shaped part. Then the worker puts the cover plate on the piston rod of the clamping cylinder through the slot, and then pushes the cover plate to make the piston rod of the clamping cylinder slide to the clamping groove on the cover plate. Then the control system is used to start the clamping cylinder again, and the piston rod of the clamping cylinder contracts and drives the end plate to be pressed on the cover plate, thereby fixing the special-shaped part on the base plate.

[0014] Optionally, the clamping mechanism includes an anti-loosening cylinder arranged on the substrate and electrically connected to the control system, the piston rod of the anti-loosening cylinder slides through the connecting pipe mouth on the special-shaped part, and a clamping cone is coaxially and detachably provided on the piston rod of the anti-loosening cylinder.

Then the worker installs the clamping cone on the piston rod of the anti-loosening cylinder through the connecting assembly. Then the anti-loosening cylinder is started again through the control system, and the piston rod of the anti-loosening cylinder drives the clamping cone to press down on the connecting pipe mouth on the special-shaped part until the inclined surface of the clamping cone is pressed against the edge of the connecting pipe mouth. At the same time, under the action of the inclined surface of the clamping cone, the processing position of the special-shaped part is fine-tuned, so that the special-shaped parts of the same batch can be processed on the same reference, which is conducive to improving the consistency of processing precision between different special-shaped parts.

[0016] Optionally, the connecting assembly includes a sleeve coaxially arranged on the clamping cone, a locking ring groove is circumferentially provided on the piston rod of the anti-loosening cylinder, a plurality of locking balls are circumferentially provided on the inner side wall of the sleeve, a plurality of rolling grooves are circumferentially provided between the inner and outer side walls of the sleeve along the radial direction of the sleeve axis, the rolling grooves correspond one-to-one to the locking balls, the locking balls roll in cooperation with the rolling grooves, a tightening member is provided on the sleeve, and the tightening member is used to clamp the locking ball on the locking ring groove.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the worker puts the sleeve on the piston rod of the anti-loosening cylinder, and then uses the tightening piece to make the locking ball on the inner wall of the sleeve clamp on the locking ring groove on the piston rod of the anti-loosening cylinder, so that the sleeve is fixed on the piston rod of the anti-loosening cylinder, thereby installing the tightening cone on the piston rod of the anti-loosening cylinder.

During this process, the compression spring is compressed by the force, and then the worker puts the sleeve on the piston rod of the anti-loosening cylinder, and the locking ball rolls toward the unlocking ring groove until the rolling groove on the sleeve is connected with the locking ring groove. Then the worker loosens the abutment tube, the compression spring restores its deformation and pushes the anti-slip ring to reset, and the locking ball is pressed onto the locking ring groove by the sleeve.

[0020] Optionally, the inner diameter of the rolling groove gradually decreases in a direction away from the sleeve axis.

Workers install multiple support columns on the base plate according to the size and shape of the special-shaped parts, then place the special-shaped parts on the multiple support columns, and use limiters to limit the ear plates of the special-shaped parts. Then, the special-shaped parts are pressed against the multiple support columns by a clamping mechanism to fix the special-shaped parts. Since the support columns are detachably installed on the base plate, when fixing special-shaped parts of different sizes and shapes, workers only need to adjust the installation position of the support columns. The support columns are also reusable, which reduces the production cost of the fixture and helps to improve the versatility of the fixture.

[0026] 2. After the worker places the special-shaped part on the support column, the control system activates the pressing cylinder, and the piston rod of the pressing cylinder extends from the connecting pipe port on the special-shaped part. The worker then puts the cover plate on the piston rod of the pressing cylinder through the slot, and then pushes the cover plate to make the piston rod of the pressing cylinder slide to the pressing groove on the cover plate. The control system then activates the pressing cylinder again, and the piston rod of the pressing cylinder contracts and drives the end plate to press against the cover plate, thereby fixing the special-shaped part on the base plate.

[0027] 3. After the worker places the special-shaped part on the support column, the anti-loosening cylinder is started through the control system. The piston rod of the anti-loosening cylinder extends from the connecting pipe mouth on the special-shaped part. Then the worker installs the clamping cone on the piston rod of the anti-loosening cylinder through the connecting assembly. Then the anti-loosening cylinder is started again through the control system.
