[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model;

[0023] Reference Figure 1-5 A positioning device for CTP plate processing includes an operating platform 1. A base plate 5 is provided at the upper end of the operating platform 1. Clamping components 2 are fixedly provided on both sides of the base plate 5. Two sets of symmetrically arranged fixing components 3 are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the clamping components 2. Fixing blocks 6 are fixedly connected between the fixing components 3. The fixing blocks 6 are movably locked at both ends of the clamping components 2. A mounting frame 4 is fixedly provided above the base plate 5. A moving groove 19 is fixedly opened in the middle of the mounting frame 4. A sliding block 10 is provided above the moving groove 19. An electric telescopic rod 14 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the sliding block 10. The lower end of the electric telescopic rod 14 passes through the moving groove 19 and is fixedly connected to a mounting arm 11. A driving component 12 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the mounting arm 11. A mounting shaft 13 for mounting processing equipment is fixedly connected to the lower end of the driving component 12.

[0024] A base plate 5 is mounted on the upper end of the operating platform 1. Clamping components 2 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the base plate 5 to fix it and prevent displacement during processing. Two sets of symmetrically arranged fixing components 3 are fixedly mounted on the left and right sides of the clamping components 2. These components further enhance the stability of the base plate 5 during processing. Fixing blocks 6 are fixedly connected between the fixing components 3. The fixing blocks 6 are movably locked at both ends of the clamping components 2. This design allows for the adaptation to CTP plates of different sizes while maintaining a certain degree of stability. A mounting frame 4 is fixedly mounted on the upper part of the base plate 5 as a support structure for the drive and processing components. A moving groove 19 is fixedly opened in the middle of the mounting frame 4. A sliding block 10 is mounted above the moving groove 19. The sliding block 10 can move in the moving groove. The sliding block 10 slides freely on the sliding groove 19, thereby realizing the function of adjusting the position of the processing parts. The lower end of the sliding block 10 is fixedly connected to an electric telescopic rod 14. The lower end of the electric telescopic rod 14 passes through the sliding groove 19 and is fixedly connected to the mounting arm 11. Through the telescopic function of the electric telescopic rod 14, the height and position of the mounting arm 11 and the processing equipment mounted on it can be adjusted. The upper end of the mounting arm 11 is fixedly installed with a driving component 12. The lower end of the driving component 12 is fixedly connected to a mounting shaft 13 for mounting the processing equipment. The driving component 12 can provide the necessary power to drive the processing equipment to perform various processing operations through the mounting shaft 13. Through the combined use of the clamping component 2, the fixing component 3 and the fixing block 6, high-precision positioning of the CTP plate can be achieved, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the processing process.

[0025] As an optional implementation, the clamping assembly 2 includes a clamping block 201, a threaded hole 202, a screwing block 203, a screw 204, a movable block 205, a pressing block 206, and a movable groove 207. A set of symmetrically arranged clamping blocks 201 are fixedly installed on the upper end of the operating platform 1. Two sets of symmetrically arranged movable grooves 207 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the clamping block 201. The fixing block 6 is movably locked in the movable groove 207. A plurality of equally spaced threaded holes 202 are evenly opened on the upper end of the clamping block 201. A screw 204 is engaged in the threaded hole 202. A screwing block 203 is fixedly connected above the screw 204. The other end of the screw 204 passes through the threaded hole 202 and is fixedly connected to the movable block 205. A pressing block 206 is fitted on the outside of the movable block 205. The movable block 205 is rotatably disposed inside the pressing block 206.

[0026] When it is necessary to clamp the base plate 5, the screw 204 is first driven to rotate in the threaded hole 202 by rotating the screw block 203. The rotation of the screw 204 is converted into up and down movement, which drives the movable block 205 to move together. During the movement, the movable block 205 works together with the pressing block 206 to generate a clamping force on the base plate 5. By adjusting the degree and position of the rotation of the screw 204, the magnitude of the clamping force and the clamping position can be easily adjusted to adapt to base plates 5 of different sizes and thicknesses. The structure of the clamping component 2 is relatively simple, easy to manufacture and maintain, and reduces production costs and maintenance difficulty.

[0027] As an optional implementation, the fixing component 3 includes a slide rail 301 fixedly installed on the upper end of the operating platform 1. Slide grooves 308 are provided through both sides of the slide rail 301. A rack 302 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the slide rail 301. A gear 303 is meshed on one side of the rack 302. A rotating shaft 305 is provided through the middle of the gear 303. One end of the rotating shaft 305 passes through the slide groove 308 and is fixedly connected to a second motor 304. The other end of the rotating shaft 305 passes through the slide groove 308 on the other side and is fixedly connected to a rotating block 306. A connecting block 307 is fitted around the rotating block 306. The rotating block 306 is rotatably disposed inside the connecting block 307.

[0028] The slide rail 301 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the operating platform 1, providing guidance and support for components such as the fixing block 6 and the connecting block 307. Slide grooves 308 are provided through both sides of the slide rail 301, allowing the connecting block 307 to slide freely within the slide rail 301, thereby adjusting the position of the fixing block 6. A rack 302 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the slide rail 301, and a gear 303 meshes with one side of the rack 302. This design allows the gear 303 to roll on the rack 302, thus converting the rotational motion of the motor into linear motion. A rotating shaft 305 is provided through the middle of the gear 303, and one end of the rotating shaft 305 passes through the slide groove 308 and connects with the second motor 3. 04 is fixedly connected, with the other end passing through the slide groove 308 on the other side and fixedly connected to a rotating block 306. When the second motor 304 is started, it drives the gear 303 to roll on the rack 302, thereby driving the rotating shaft 305 and the rotating block 306 to rotate. A connecting block 307 is fitted on the outside of the rotating block 306. The connecting block 307 is used to connect the rotating block 306 to the fixed block 6. The rotating block 306 is rotatably set inside the connecting block 307, so that the fixed block 6 can move at a constant speed in the horizontal direction. The user can adjust the fixed component 3 by controlling the start and stop of the second motor 304. This design simplifies the operation process and reduces the difficulty of operation.

[0029] As an optional implementation, a set of symmetrically arranged mounting blocks 7 are fixedly installed on the upper end of the mounting bracket 4, and a lead screw 8 is rotatably installed between the set of mounting blocks 7. The other end of the lead screw 8 passes through the mounting block 7 and is fixedly connected to the first motor 9. A sliding block 10 is engaged with the outside of the lead screw 8.

[0030] Mounting bracket 4 serves as the supporting structure for the entire device. A set of symmetrically arranged mounting blocks 7 are fixedly mounted on its upper end. The mounting blocks 7 provide a foundation for the installation and support of the lead screw 8, ensuring that the lead screw 8 can rotate stably. The lead screw 8 is rotatably mounted between the set of mounting blocks 7, and its other end passes through the mounting blocks 7 and is fixedly connected to the first motor 9. When the first motor 9 starts, it drives the lead screw 8 to rotate. The sliding block 10 is engaged with the outside of the lead screw 8. This design allows the sliding block 10 to move along the axial direction of the lead screw 8. When the lead screw 8 rotates, the sliding block 10 is pushed by the thread of the lead screw 8, thereby sliding on the lead screw 8. Through the drive of the first motor 9 and the transmission action of the lead screw 8, precise control of the position of the sliding block 10 can be achieved. The lead screw 8 transmission has the characteristics of high transmission efficiency and smooth transmission. In this device, the lead screw 8 transmission can effectively convert the rotational motion of the motor into the linear motion of the sliding block 10, improving the transmission efficiency and stability of the entire device.

[0031] Preferably, the mounting bracket 4 has a first scale 15 fixedly provided on both sides.

[0032] By observing the markings on the first scale 15, the operator can ensure that the predetermined position and angle are maintained during the processing of the base plate 5, thereby improving the precision and accuracy of the processing.

[0033] Preferably, the upper end of the clamping block 201 is fixedly provided with a second scale 16.

[0034] The second scale 16 can serve as a reference for the calibration and maintenance of the clamping component 2, helping operators to complete the calibration work quickly and accurately. By precisely controlling the position of the base plate 5, errors and waste in the processing process can be reduced, which can not only improve production efficiency but also reduce production costs, bringing greater economic benefits to the enterprise.

[0035] Preferably, the bottom four corners of the operating platform 1 are fixedly installed with fixing posts 17, and the other end of the fixing posts 17 is fixedly connected with anti-slip pads 18.

[0036] By installing fixed posts 17 and anti-slip pads 18 at the four corners of the bottom of the operating platform 1, the stability of the operating platform 1 can be significantly improved. The design of the anti-slip pads 18 can effectively increase the friction between the operating platform 1 and the working surface, which makes it difficult for the operating platform 1 to slide or move during operation, thereby ensuring the accuracy and safety of operation.

[0037] In use, the user first places the base plate 5 to be processed in the slide rail 301, starts the second motor 304, causing the gear 303 to rotate on the rack 302, thereby causing the rotating block 306 to move horizontally along with the connecting block 307. Since the rotating block 306 is rotatably installed in the connecting block 307, the connecting block 307 can move horizontally along with the fixing block 6 until one end of the fixing block 6 is completely against one side of the base plate 5. The relative position of the base plate 5 on the operating platform 1 can be adjusted using the fixing blocks 6 on both sides of the base plate 5. Then, the screw 203 is rotated to drive the screw 204 to rotate in the threaded hole 202. The rotation of the screw 204 is converted into up and down movement, which drives the movable block 205 to move together. During its movement, the movable block 205 exerts pressure on the pressing block 206, thereby creating pressure on the base plate 5 and fixing it onto the clamping assembly 2. The first motor 9 is started, causing the lead screw 8 to rotate, which in turn causes the sliding block 10 to move the mounting arm 11 on the mounting frame 4. By observing the first scale 15 set on the mounting frame 4, the position of the mounting arm 11 is determined. Then, the required processing device is installed on the mounting shaft 13, and the drive component 12 is started, allowing the base plate 5 to be positioned and processed. When processing the next base plate 5, only one side of the fixing block 6 needs to be loosened, and the base plate 5 is placed back into the clamping block 201 and fixed according to the same steps. This not only makes the operation convenient but also provides high positioning accuracy.
