[0002] In short, a machining fixture is a piece of equipment specifically designed and manufactured for the purpose of accurately positioning and reliably clamping a workpiece during machining operations such as cutting, milling, drilling, and grinding. The main function of a fixture is to ensure the positional accuracy of the workpiece during machining, preventing it from moving or deforming due to cutting forces, gravity, or other external forces, thereby ensuring that the machined parts meet design requirements.

[0003] During machining, it is often necessary to set a certain tilt angle for the workpiece to meet machining requirements. Currently, wedges of different angles are commonly used to achieve different tilt angles. However, this method not only fails to allow for continuous adjustment of different tilt angles, but also is time-consuming and labor-intensive, severely impacting machining efficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to design a machining flipping fixture to effectively solve the aforementioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0028] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0029] It should be noted that all directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, upper end, lower end, top, bottom, etc.) in this utility model embodiment are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] See Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, a machining flipping fixture includes a base 1, on which a pair of support seats 2 are provided. A turntable 3 is respectively provided on the opposite surface of the support seats 2. The turntables 3 are rotatably mounted on the corresponding support seats 2 via a rotating shaft 4. One set of the rotating shafts 4 is connected to a driving mechanism 5, and the two sets of turntables 3 are connected together by a connecting plate 6. The connecting plate 6 is provided with a clamping mechanism 7 for fixing the workpiece.

[0032] Further, see Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, each support base 2 includes a lower support 21 and an upper support 22. During installation, the lower support 21 is locked to the base 1 by corresponding locking bolts, and the upper support 22 is locked to the lower support 21 by corresponding locking bolts. In order to position the upper support 22 and the lower support 21 and to prevent them from moving around after being connected, a limiting block 23 is provided between the lower support 21 and the upper support 22. The turntable 3 is rotatably mounted on the corresponding upper support 22 via the rotating shaft 4.

[0033] Further, see Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a scale 31 is engraved on the side wall of one of the turntables 3, and an arrow 221 is provided on the upper support 22 on which the turntable 3 is engraved with the scale 31. During adjustment, the angle of rotation of the turntable 3 can be precisely controlled by the cooperation of the arrow 221 and the scale 31, thereby achieving precise control of the tilt angle of the workpiece clamped on the clamping mechanism 7, thereby improving the processing quality, increasing the adjustment rate, and thus improving the processing efficiency.

[0034] Further, see Figure 4-5 As shown, in this embodiment, the clamping mechanism 7 includes a pair of bearing blocks 71, a movable clamping plate 72 is disposed between the pair of bearing blocks 71, and a fixed clamping block 73 is disposed at each end of the pair of bearing blocks 71. A rotatable lead screw 74 is disposed between the pair of fixed clamping blocks 73. While the lead screw 74 passes through the movable clamping plate 72, one end of the lead screw 74 is connected to a first drive motor 76 through a synchronous pulley assembly 75. The first drive motor 76 is a servo motor.

[0035] During installation, a pair of bearing blocks 71 and a pair of fixed clamping blocks 73 are fixed to the upper surface of the connecting plate 6, while the first drive motor 76 is fixed to the lower surface of the connecting plate 6 via a corresponding motor bracket. Before clamping, it should be noted that in this embodiment, the movable clamping plate 72 can clamp the workpiece by cooperating with any set of fixed clamping blocks 73. During clamping, after the workpiece is placed on the pair of bearing blocks 71, the first drive motor 76 drives the lead screw 74 to rotate via the synchronous pulley assembly 75, thereby... The movable clamping plate 72 is driven to move along the lead screw 74, thereby clamping the workpiece between the movable clamping plate 72 and the fixed clamping block 73. The direction of movement of the movable clamping plate 72, or which set of fixed clamping blocks 73 the movable clamping plate 72 engages with, is controlled by the rotation direction of the lead screw 74 through the first drive motor 76. With the above arrangement, it is possible to release one set of finished workpieces from clamping while clamping another set of workpieces to be processed during the processing, thereby improving processing efficiency.

[0036] Further details can be found by referring to [link / reference]. Figure 4-5 As shown, in this embodiment, to ensure that the movable clamping plate 72 remains stable during movement and avoids shaking or deviation, the clamping mechanism 7 further includes a pair of linear guide rails 77. The pair of linear guide rails 77 are respectively disposed at both ends of the movable clamping plate 72, and the direction of the pair of linear guide rails 77 is parallel to the lead screw 74. During installation, the guide rails of the pair of linear guide rails 77 are fixed on the connecting plate 6, and the slide of the linear guide rail 77 is connected to the movable clamping plate 72 on the corresponding side. During clamping, the movable clamping plate 72 moves back and forth along the pair of linear guide rails 77 under the drive of the lead screw 74.

[0037] Further, see Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, in order to improve the accuracy and stability of the bearing block 71, the fixed clamping block 73 and the linear guide rail 77 in the clamping mechanism 7 with the connecting plate 6, the connecting plate 6 is provided with a positioning groove 61 for positioning the bearing block 71, the fixed clamping block 73 and the linear guide rail.

[0038] Further, see Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the main body of the drive mechanism 5 is a second drive motor 51. After the second drive motor 51 is fixed on the upper support 22 by a corresponding bracket, the second drive motor 51 is connected to the corresponding rotating shaft 4 by a coupling 52; the second drive motor 51 is a servo motor.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] See Figure 7-8 As shown, unlike Embodiment 1, in the clamping mechanism 7, a pair of movable clamping plates 72 are provided between a pair of bearing blocks 71; and the left and right halves of the lead screw 74 have opposite thread directions. After the lead screw 74 passes through the pair of movable clamping plates 72, a movable clamping plate 72 is respectively provided on the left and right halves of the lead screw 74. During driving, the first drive motor 76 drives the lead screw 74 to rotate through the synchronous belt pulley assembly 75, thereby driving the pair of movable clamping plates 72 to move closer or further away. During clamping, in this embodiment, by moving the pair of movable clamping plates 72 further away, the pair of movable clamping plates 72 cooperate with the fixed clamping block 73 on their corresponding sides to clamp two sets of workpieces simultaneously, effectively improving processing efficiency. It should be noted that the above-mentioned simultaneous clamping of two sets of workpieces is only one implementation method and is not intended to limit the scope of this application. In actual use, the pair of movable clamping plates 72 can also be controlled to move closer to achieve workpiece clamping operation through the pair of movable clamping plates 72.

[0041] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
