[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 - Figure 4 This utility model provides an embodiment of a high-precision metal casting press-fit fixture, comprising a base 1, a support frame 2 fixedly connected to the top of the outer surface of the base 1, providing fixed support for the support frame 2 via the top of the outer surface of the base 1, a press-fit assembly provided on the top of the outer surface of the support frame 2, enabling the press-fit assembly to press a pin 13 onto the casting, the press-fit assembly including a hinge rod 11, the top of the hinge rod 11 hinged to a movable column 6, enabling the hinge rod 11 to move laterally when moving, the movable column 6 to move laterally, a press-fit platform 5 fixedly connected to the top of the outer surface of the base 1, providing fixed support for the press-fit platform 5 via the top of the outer surface of the base 1, the bottom of the outer surface of the movable column 6 being flush with the outer surface of the press-fit platform 5. The top of the moving column 6 is slidably connected, allowing it to move laterally along the top of the outer surface of the pressing platform 5. The inner surface of the moving column 6 is elastically connected to the feeding plate 15 via spring C14, ensuring that the feeding plate 15 always moves upward without being affected by external forces. The right side of the outer surface of the moving column 6 is in contact with a partition 9, allowing the moving column 6 to move laterally to a designated position, which in turn causes the partition 9 to move laterally outward. The inner surface of the support frame 2 is penetrated and fixedly connected to the dropping cylinder 7, providing fixed support for the dropping cylinder 7. The middle of the outer surface of the left side of the partition 9 is slidably connected to the bottom of the inner surface of the dropping cylinder 7, allowing the partition 9 to move laterally along the bottom of the inner surface of the dropping cylinder 7.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3The pressing assembly also includes a telescopic motor 3, a pressing plate 4, a spring B12, and a hinge column 10. The bottom of the outer surface of the telescopic motor 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the outer surface of the support frame 2, providing fixed support for the telescopic motor 3. The output shaft of the telescopic motor 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the outer surface of the pressing plate 4, enabling the telescopic motor 3 to drive the pressing plate 4 to move vertically. The rear end of the inner surface of the pressing plate 4 is elastically connected to the top of the outer surface of the hinge column 10 via spring B12, allowing the hinge column 10 to maintain downward movement without external force. The bottom of the inner surface of the hinge column 10 is hinged to the bottom of the outer surface of the hinge rod 11, enabling the hinge column 10 to drive the hinge rod 11 to move when moving vertically. The top of the outer surface of the partition plate 9 is connected to the outer surface of the discharge cylinder 7 via spring A8. The bottom end of the surface is elastically connected, so that the partition 9 can always move laterally towards the blanking cylinder 7 without being affected by external force. The inner surface of the blanking cylinder 7 is slidably connected with a pin 13, so that the pin 13 can move vertically along the inner surface of the blanking cylinder 7. The outer surface of the pin 13 is engaged with the middle of the inner surface of the left side of the partition 9, so that the pin 13 can be fixed at the bottom end of the inner surface of the blanking cylinder 7 by being engaged with the middle of the inner surface of the left side of the partition 9. The outer surface of the pin 13 is engaged with the inner surface of the feeding plate 15, so that when the pin 13 is engaged with the inner surface of the feeding plate 15, the feeding plate 15 can drive the pin 13 to move laterally. The top end of the outer surface of the pin 13 is in contact with the bottom end of the outer surface of the pressure plate 4, so that the pressure plate 4 can press the pin 13 onto the casting by squeezing the top end of the outer surface of the pin 13.

[0034] Reference Figure 2 - Figure 4 One end of spring C14 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the moving column 6, and the other end of spring C14 is fixedly connected to the top of the outer surface of the feeding plate 15. This allows the pressure plate 4 to press the top of the outer surface of the pin 13 downwards and press it onto the casting when the feeding plate 15 moves the pin 13 above the casting. One end of spring B12 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the inner surface of the pressure plate 4, and the other end of spring B12 is fixedly connected to the top of the outer surface of the hinge column 10. This allows the hinge column 10 to move downwards under the pressure of the pressure plate 4, thus... First, the two sets of hinge rods 11 at the bottom drive the two sets of moving columns 6 to the designated position, so that the pin 13 moves to the designated position before being squeezed by the pressure plate 4. One end of the spring A8 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the outer surface of the discharge cylinder 7, and the other end of the spring A8 is fixedly connected to the top end of the outer surface of the partition 9. When the moving column 6 stops pulling the partition 9 to move outward, the partition 9 can move into the discharge cylinder 7 due to the elastic force of the spring A8, and lock the pin 13 in the discharge cylinder 7, preventing the remaining pin 13 in the discharge cylinder 7 from slipping into the discharge cylinder 7.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 2 , Figure 5 A rubber block 16 is fixedly connected to the left side of the inner surface of the feeding plate 15. When the pin 13 is moved laterally by the feeding plate 15, it can prevent the pin 13 from slipping out of the feeding plate 15. Furthermore, due to the deformation of the rubber block 16, the pin 13 in the feeding plate 15 can be pulled out after being pressed. There are four sets of feeding cylinders 7 and feeding plates 15, so that the four sets of feeding cylinders 7 can feed the four sets of feeding plates 15 at the same time.

[0036] Working principle: When using the device, first fix the casting on the pressing platform 5, then place the pins 13 to be pressed into the four sets of feeding cylinders 7 respectively, so that the pins 13 slide down the inner surface of the feeding cylinder 7 into the feeding plate 15. The remaining pins 13 will be blocked by the pins 13 that have fallen into the feeding plate 15 and stop sliding down. Then start the telescopic motor 3, which will drive the pressing plate 4 and the hinge column 10 to move downwards at the same time. When the hinge column 10 moves downwards, it will drive the two sets of moving columns 6 to move in the same direction due to the two sets of hinge rods 11, and stop pressing the partition plate 9. When the partition plate 9 stops pressing the inner moving column 6, it will move into the feeding cylinder 7 due to the elastic force of the spring A8 and engage with the remaining pins 13 in the feeding cylinder 7 to prevent the remaining pins 13 from sliding out of the feeding cylinder 7. The effect inside is that when the two sets of moving columns 6 move inward in the same direction, because the hinge column 10 and the pressure plate 4 are connected by spring B12, the four sets of pins 13 will move to the designated position at the same time, waiting for the pressure plate 4 to squeeze. After the pressure plate 4 presses the four sets of pins 13 onto the casting at the same time, the pressure plate 4 and the hinge column 10 will be driven upward by the telescopic motor 3. When the hinge column 10 moves upward, it will be driven by the two sets of hinge rods 11 to unfold outward at the same time. When it reaches the designated position, it will pull the partition 9 to move outward, so that the partition 9 stops locking the remaining pins 13. The pins 13 will fall into the feeding plate 15 due to gravity. The other remaining pins 13 will be blocked by the pins 13 locked in the feeding plate 15 at the bottom, and stop falling, so as to achieve the effect of automatic feeding.

[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
