Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aerospace component processing, and in particular to a milling machine bracket clamping structure for aerospace component processing. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, Chinese utility model patent CN216371220U discloses a workpiece clamping device for CNC milling machines, belonging to the field of workpiece clamping devices. It includes a CNC milling machine body with multiple symmetrical insertion holes on both sides of the upper surface of the body. One insertion hole contains a insertion block with a threaded hole. A screw is threaded into the threaded hole, and a clamping block is fixed to one end of the screw. A clamping structure is symmetrically arranged on the CNC milling machine body, comprising two fixed rods and two rotating rods. The bottom ends of the fixed rods are fixed to the upper surface of the CNC milling machine body. The rotating rods are rotatably mounted on the upper surface of the CNC milling machine body via a rotating shaft. An annular hole is formed along the length of each rotating rod, and a positioning rod is welded to one end of each rotating rod, with a positioning block fixed to one side of the positioning rod. This utility model features a novel design and ingenious structure, capable of clamping the workpiece from all sides. It allows for fine-tuning according to the size of the workpiece, offering strong practicality and ensuring processing stability, making it worthy of promotion.

[0003] Existing clamping structures cannot replace the clamping head. During milling, workpieces of different shapes are encountered, but the clamping head of a typical clamping structure can only clamp one type of workpiece. To clamp different shapes, the entire fixture must be replaced, requiring multiple fixture sets, increasing processing costs, reducing practicality, and making it inconvenient to use. Furthermore, the workpiece cannot be rotated; typical clamping structures only provide clamping and fixing. During processing, different areas of the workpiece need to be machined, requiring adjustment of the workpiece's machining surface. However, with typical clamping structures, adjusting the workpiece's machining surface requires disassembling and reassembling the workpiece, which is cumbersome, increases workload, and reduces processing efficiency. To address these problems, we propose a milling machine bracket clamping structure for aerospace component processing. Utility Model Content
