Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of Swiss-type lathes, and more particularly to a positioning device for Swiss-type lathes. Background Art
[0002] Swiss-type lathes, also known as CNC Swiss-type lathes, are high-precision CNC machine tools primarily used for machining long shaft parts. Swiss-type lathes are widely used, and workpiece positioning is essential to ensure machining accuracy and quality. The workpiece must be accurately positioned on the machine tool to ensure positional accuracy during machining and avoid degradation of workpiece precision due to accumulated errors.
[0003] Currently, Swiss-type lathes typically use appropriate positioning devices, such as chucks, collets, and positioning blocks, to ensure accurate positioning of the workpiece during machining. However, the design and operation of positioning devices are complex, requiring precise adjustment and calibration. This not only increases operational difficulty but can also lead to operational errors, impacting machining accuracy and efficiency. Furthermore, these devices must be selected based on the shape and size of the workpiece, making operation cumbersome and reducing work efficiency. Furthermore, high-precision fixtures and positioning devices are typically expensive, increasing production costs for manufacturers. Cost pressures are particularly high when these devices are used extensively. Therefore, a Swiss-type lathe positioning device is proposed to address the positioning issues faced by circular tubular workpieces of varying diameters prior to machining. Utility Model Content

The staff can intuitively observe the sliding trajectory of the positioning block through the top plate observation hole.
[0015] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0033] See Figure 3-4 The base assembly 1 includes a chassis 11, four groups of docking positioning pins 12 are provided at the bottom end of the chassis 11, a circular base positioning hole 13 is opened through the center of the chassis 11, four groups of top plate fixing pin holes 14 are opened at the top of the chassis 11, and multiple groups of sliding grooves 15 are opened at the top of the chassis 11. The multiple groups of sliding grooves 15 are opened around the center of the base positioning hole 13, an opening limit column 16 is provided on one side of the chassis 11, and a retraction limit column 17 is provided on the same side of the opening limit column 16 of the chassis 11. By docking the positioning pin 12 and aligning it with the hole on the Swiss machine that matches its shape, it is confirmed that the axis of the Swiss machine coincides with the center of the positioning device. The base positioning hole 13 opened on the chassis 11 can pass through the workpiece. The top plate fixing pin hole 14 cooperates with the top cover assembly 4 to limit the movement of the positioning assembly 2 to avoid exceeding the limit and making it impossible to align with the workpiece. The sliding groove 15 is set to a double-layer structure, the upper layer size of which is smaller than the lower layer size, which is convenient for the fixing pin 3 to fix and limit the sliding trajectory.

[0034] See Figure 5The positioning assembly 2 includes a positioning plate 21, which is slidably connected to the chassis 11.
