[0026] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation, connection, and linkage" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first aspect of this application provides a positioning fixture 100, including: a base plate 110; a first positioning block 120 disposed on the base plate 110, the first positioning block 120 being provided with a plurality of first positioning grooves 130; and a second positioning block 140 disposed on the base plate 110 and located on one side of the first positioning block 120, the second positioning block 140 being provided with a plurality of second positioning grooves 150, the second positioning grooves 150 corresponding one-to-one with the first positioning grooves 130, the second positioning grooves 150 and the first positioning grooves 130 cooperating to position cookware accessories.

[0028] The positioning fixture 100 described in the first aspect of this application is applied to a laser marking device. By cooperating with the first positioning groove 130 and the second positioning groove 150, the cookware parts are positioned, which can prevent the cookware parts from shaking during the laser marking process and avoid abnormal problems such as laser logo ghosting caused by shaking, thereby improving product quality. By setting multiple first positioning grooves 130 and second positioning grooves 150, multiple cookware parts can be placed at the same time, thereby enabling laser marking of multiple cookware parts at one time, reducing labor intensity and improving work efficiency.

[0029] Reference Figure 2 The base plate 110 is provided with a mounting groove 160, and the first positioning block 120 and the second positioning block 140 are disposed within the mounting groove 160. Specifically, the mounting groove 160 is provided with a first mounting hole 170, and the first positioning block 120 and the second positioning block 140 are provided with a second mounting hole 180. The first mounting hole 170 and the second mounting hole 180 are connected by fasteners. By adopting the above structure, it is easy to assemble and disassemble the first positioning block 120, the second positioning block 140 and the base plate 110, thereby improving work efficiency. Furthermore, the second mounting hole 180 is set as a strip hole. By setting the second mounting hole 180 as a strip hole, the distance between the first positioning block 120 and the second positioning block 140 can be adjusted, thereby adapting to cookware accessories of different widths and sizes, making operation simple.

[0030] It is conceivable that the openings of the first positioning groove 130 and the second positioning groove 150 are rounded to prevent scratching of cookware accessories and improve product quality. It is easy to understand that both the first positioning block 120 and the second positioning block 140 have beveled surfaces on their adjacent sides, located at the upper ends of the first positioning block 120 and the second positioning block 140 respectively, with the gap between the bevels gradually decreasing from top to bottom. By adopting the above structure, the overall weight of the component can be reduced, and it can also be used for cookware accessories with a concave center.

[0031] Reference Figure 3 The second aspect of this application provides a laser marking device, including: a base 200 with a worktable 210; a positioning fixture 100 as described in the first aspect of this application, with a base plate 110 disposed on the worktable 210; and a laser marking mechanism 300 disposed on the base 200 and above the positioning fixture 100, the laser marking mechanism 300 being used to laser mark cookware accessories.

[0032] The positioning fixture 100 described in the first aspect of this application is applied to a laser marking device. By cooperating with the first positioning groove 130 and the second positioning groove 150, the cookware parts are positioned, which can prevent the cookware parts from shaking during the laser marking process and avoid abnormal problems such as laser logo ghosting caused by shaking, thereby improving product quality. By setting multiple first positioning grooves 130 and second positioning grooves 150, multiple cookware parts can be placed at the same time, thereby enabling laser marking of multiple cookware parts at one time, reducing labor intensity and improving work efficiency.

[0033] In this embodiment, the workbench 210 is equipped with a transverse movement mechanism 220, and the base plate 110 is connected to the transverse movement mechanism 220. During operation, the worker places the cookware parts on the positioning fixture 100. Then, with the cooperation of the transverse movement mechanism 220, the laser marking mechanism 300 sequentially laser marks the cookware parts from the front to the rear of the positioning fixture 100. After laser marking, the cookware parts at the front of the positioning fixture 100 will be moved away from below the laser marking mechanism 300 by the transverse movement mechanism 220. At this time, the worker can simultaneously retrieve and replace the cookware parts in front of the positioning fixture 100. After laser marking of the last cookware part at the rear of the positioning fixture 100 is completed, the transverse movement mechanism 220 will move the positioning fixture 100 back to its initial position for the next round of work, and the worker will retrieve and replace the cookware parts at the rear of the positioning fixture 100. By adopting the above structure, automatic continuous operation can be achieved, improving work efficiency and increasing production capacity.
