The bending plate 200 can be inserted into any strip-shaped groove 110. The plurality of support members 300 are arranged in sequence on the base 100 and abut the bending plate 200, and the support member 300 is provided with an adsorption hole 310 that presses the frame against the support member 300. The clamping mechanism 400 is detachably connected to the base 100, and the clamping mechanism 400 clamps the base 100 and the support member 300.
[0038] Based on the above design, the aircraft frame positioning device is provided with a plurality of strip-shaped grooves 110 on the base 100 that match the curvature of the arc surface of the frame according to different shape profiles of the frame.
