BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0006] Figure 1is the cross-sectional view of the embodiment of the utility model.

[0007] Figure 2 is Figure 1 is the cross-sectional view of the embodiment of the utility model.

[0008] Figure 3 is Figure 1 is the cross-sectional view of the embodiment of the utility model. Embodiment

[0009] As Figure 1 , 2 , 3: the utility model discloses a honing four jaw centering fixture, including the inner layer shell 5 of the cylindrical structure, the middle layer shell 3 is sleeved on the upper portion of the outer side of inner layer shell 5, and the outer layer shell 1 is sleeved on the outer side of middle layer shell 3. The outer layer shell 1 and the middle layer shell 3 are connected through the first hinge shaft 2 and have a gap, so that the middle layer shell 3 can move along the first hinge shaft 2 and rotate relative to the outer layer shell 1, and the first hinge shaft 2 has two and is symmetrically arranged. The middle layer shell 3 and the inner layer shell 5 are connected through the second hinge shaft 4 and have a gap, so that the inner layer shell 5 can move along the second hinge shaft 4 and rotate relative to the middle layer shell 3, and the second hinge shaft 4 has two and is symmetrically arranged. The outer sleeve 9 is fixed on the lower portion of the outer side of inner layer shell 5, the piston 6 is arranged between the outer sleeve 9 and the inner layer shell 5, the cavity 14 is formed between the piston 6 and the outer sleeve 9, the cavity 14 is connected with the air hole 10 on the lower end face of the inner layer shell 5 through the passage 11 on the outer sleeve 9 and the inner layer shell 5. The spring 7 is arranged between the lower end of the piston 6 and the inner layer shell 5.
