[0011] Furthermore, the upper positioning ring block is detachably connected to the positioning seat, and several equal-height pads are provided between the upper positioning ring block and the positioning seat.
[0012] Furthermore, a window is provided on the side of the lower positioning ring block, and a first detection sensor for detecting cylindrical workpieces is installed at the window.
[0013] Furthermore, a mounting plate is provided below the turntable, and the mounting plate is connected to a locking assembly for locking the turntable; the locking assembly includes a pin and a limiting block with a second insertion hole, the limiting block being connected to the mounting plate; the pin can be vertically inserted into the second insertion hole opened on the turntable and into the second insertion hole.
[0014] Furthermore, a second detection sensor for detecting the pin is connected to the limiting block or the mounting plate.
[0015] Furthermore, the mounting plate is connected to a pin holder for placing the pin.
[0016] Furthermore, a positioning sensor is connected to the mounting plate, and a positioning plate for triggering the positioning sensor is connected to the turntable.
[0017] Furthermore, the turntable drive is an electrically controlled rotary table, and the turntable is coaxially connected to the rotating platform of the electrically controlled rotary table.
[0018] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The cylindrical workpiece centering positioning device of this utility model positions the lower end face of the cylindrical workpiece through the positioning boss. Under the elastic force of each elastic element, each gripper cooperates to clamp the cylindrical workpiece. Driven by the turntable drive, the turntable rotates, causing the positioning seat, upper positioning ring block, lower positioning ring block and the cylindrical workpiece held by the grippers to rotate together, thereby realizing the rotational centering positioning of the cylindrical workpiece. This cylindrical workpiece centering positioning device can be compatible with centering positioning of long cylindrical workpieces, with high positioning accuracy and strong applicability.
