[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that, in the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more; the terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "inner," "outer," "front end," "rear end," "head," "tail," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a clamping fixture for drilling a hole in a sliding fork of a drive shaft, including a base 1, a support seat 2 disposed on the base 1, and a vertical plate 11 disposed vertically on the base 1. The support seat 2 is used to support the sliding fork body 3. The vertical plate 11 is provided with a pneumatic gripper 4 for clamping the shaft end 31 of the sliding fork. The pneumatic gripper 4 has two pneumatic fingers 41, and the opposing surfaces of the two pneumatic fingers 41 have V-shaped clamping openings 411. The vertical plate 11 is provided with a support plate 5, and two limiting blocks 6 are provided opposite to each other on the support plate 5. A limiting groove is formed between the two limiting blocks 6 for limiting the lug end 32 of the sliding fork.

[0022] The pneumatic gripper 4 includes a housing, a slide rail, and grippers. A cylinder is installed inside the housing. The housing has an opening on the side facing the cylinder piston, and a slide rail is installed at the opening. The grippers consist of two sliders symmetrically mounted on the slide rail. The grippers are connected to the cylinder piston, and the two sliders can be driven by the cylinder to move towards each other along the slide rail. The pneumatic gripper 4 can be an existing parallel pneumatic gripper. The vertical plate 11 and the base 1 are L-shaped and integrally formed. It should be noted that any parts not detailed in this application are prior art.

[0023] Specifically, the support plate 5 is L-shaped and has a horizontal portion 51 and a vertical portion 52. The vertical portion 52 is connected to the vertical plate 11 by a first bolt. The vertical plate 11 is located between the pneumatic gripper 4 and the vertical portion 52. The horizontal portion 51 is connected to the vertical plate 11 by a second bolt. A limiting block 6 is disposed on the horizontal portion 51 at one end away from the vertical portion 52. The horizontal portion 51 and the two limiting blocks 6 form a U-shaped structure. The limiting blocks 6, the horizontal portion 51, and the vertical portion 52 are integrally manufactured. The upper end of the vertical plate 11 is provided with a limiting groove for the horizontal portion 51 to engage.

[0024] In addition, the upper end of the support base 2 is provided with a support shaft 21, and the support shaft 21 is provided with a U-shaped groove 22. The U-shaped groove 22 is provided to assist in chip removal. The base 1 is provided with extensions 13 on both sides, and the extensions 13 are provided with mounting holes for installation. In use, the extensions 13 are installed on a large vertical drilling machine by fixing bolts.

[0025] This application utilizes the pneumatic fingers 41 of the pneumatic gripper 4 to bring the two V-shaped jaws closer together, thereby quickly clamping the sliding fork shaft end 31, preventing loosening, and effectively centering the sliding fork. This ensures a stable centering effect. In conjunction with the support base 2 and two limiting blocks 6, the support base 2 supports the sliding fork body 3, and the upper end of the support shaft 21 abuts against the lower end of the sliding fork shaft end 31, helping to counteract the downward force of the drill bit and preventing damage to the pneumatic gripper 4. The two limiting blocks 6 form a limiting groove that restricts the sliding fork lug end 32, preventing the sliding fork from wobbling during drilling and effectively improving drilling accuracy. When the two pneumatic fingers 41 clamp the sliding fork shaft end 31, the sliding fork lug end 3 abuts against the inner sides of the two limiting blocks 6.

[0026] Of course, this utility model is not limited to the embodiments described above. Several other embodiments based on the design concept of this utility model are also provided below.

[0027] For example, in other embodiments, unlike the embodiments described above, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the lower end of the base 1 is provided with a weight-reducing groove 12.

[0028] For example, in other embodiments, unlike the embodiments described above, the combination of Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the V-shaped clamp 411 has two inclined working surfaces 412. The bottom of the V-shaped clamp 411 is provided with a rectangular groove 414 extending along the V-shaped clamp 411. The inclined working surfaces 412 are provided with mounting grooves 413, and the mounting grooves 413 are provided with clamping pads 7.

[0029] For example, in other embodiments, unlike the embodiments described above, anti-slip teeth are provided on the surface of the clamping pad 7 that is away from the rectangular recess 414. The clamping pad 7 and the anti-slip teeth are made as one piece and are in the shape of a rack. When clamping the sliding fork body 3, the anti-slip teeth contact the sliding fork shaft end 31. The anti-slip teeth play an anti-slip role and ensure the stability of clamping.

[0030] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present utility model, but the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
