[0032] Moreover, it is to be understood that the dimensions of the various components illustrated in the drawings are shown for purposes of convenience and example only, and that in actual practice, dimensions can differ in dependence upon the particular implementation of the present application.

[0033] It is to be noted that like-identified components have like designations in the several drawings associated with the present application, and thus, where possible the first occurrence of each designation is briefly described so as to simplify the discussion.

[0034] To solve the technical problems in the background art, as shown in the specification Figures 1-7 The present application provides a technical solution: an adjustable positioning pin device, characterized as follows:

[0035] The fixed seat 1 is a box structure with a cavity, which can be made of metal materials such as steel or aluminum to ensure sufficient strength and stability. The cavity of the fixed seat 1 is used to accommodate the moving seat 4 and other components. The fixed seat 1 is installed on the welding workbench by bolts, welding or other fixing methods to ensure that the fixed seat 1 remains stable during the welding process. The first sliding groove 2 is symmetrically arranged on the left and right side walls of the fixed seat 1, and the second sliding groove 3 is symmetrically arranged on the front and rear side walls of the fixed seat 1. These sliding grooves can be long strip-shaped grooves for guiding the sliding of the adjusting screw 6. The first sliding groove 2 and the second sliding groove 3 are located on two mutually parallel and different height horizontal planes to avoid interference with each other and together provide the moving space of the adjusting screw 6 in two directions. The moving seat 4 is arranged in the fixed seat 1 and can move in the cavity of the fixed seat 1 along the first sliding groove 2 and the second sliding groove 3. The moving seat 4 is provided with two threaded holes 5 on it, which are adapted to the first sliding groove 2 and the second sliding groove 3 respectively for passing through the adjusting screw 6. The adjusting screw 6 has external threads, passes through the threaded holes 5 on the moving seat 4, and its two ends are located in the two first sliding grooves 2 or the two second sliding grooves 3 respectively. By rotating the adjusting screw 6, the precise positioning of the moving seat 4 in the cavity of the fixed seat 1 can be achieved to adapt to workpieces of different outer diameters. The locking seat 7 is fixedly connected to the moving seat 4 and has a pin hole 8 in the middle for inserting the pin body 10. The inner wall of the locking seat 7 is provided with an abutting surface 9, which can abut against part of the structure of the pin body 10 after the pin body 10 is inserted into the pin hole 8 to prevent displacement of the pin body 10 during the welding process. The pin body 10 has a hollow chamber, and the top is provided with an internal threaded hole for adapting with the external threads of the top block 14. The side wall of the pin body 10 is uniformly provided with a plurality of hole positions 11, and the inside is provided with a plurality of balls 12 corresponding to the hole positions 11, and a center ball 13 is arranged above the balls 12. The top block 14 has external threads which are adapted with the internal threaded hole at the top of the pin body 10. By rotating the top block 14, the center ball 13 can push the balls 12 into the hole positions 11, so as to be clamped into the abutting surface 9, thereby fixing the position of the pin body 10 in the locking seat 7.

[0036] It should be noted that the four sides of the fixed seat 1 are provided with fastening bolts 15 for fixing with the workbench. The fastening bolts 15 can be standard mechanical bolts, the number and distribution of which depend on the size of the fixed seat 1 and the specific requirements of the workbench. Through the fastening bolts 15, the fixed seat 1 can be firmly fixed on the welding workbench. The fastening bolts 15 are fixed by passing through the pre-set holes on the fixed seat 1 and docking with the corresponding holes on the workbench, and then tightening the nuts to achieve fixation.

[0037] Further, the first sliding groove 2 and the second sliding groove 3 are designed to be non-central, that is, they are not located at the center of the side walls of the fixed seat 1, but are arranged on one side of the side walls. This design can provide a larger adjustment range for the adjusting screw 6, so that the moving seat 4 has more moving space in the fixed seat 1 to adapt to different sizes of workpieces. The first sliding groove 2 is symmetrically arranged on one side of the left and right side walls of the fixed seat 1. This arrangement allows the adjusting screw 6 to rotate to adjust the moving seat 4, achieving sliding position in the left and right directions. The second sliding groove 3 is symmetrically arranged on one side of the front and rear side walls of the fixed seat 1. Similar to the first sliding groove 2, this arrangement allows the adjusting screw 6 to slide in the front and rear directions to adjust the position of the moving seat 4 in the front and rear directions.

[0038] It should be noted that the abutting surface 9 is designed as a spherical surface, specifically a part of a spherical surface, and the whole is annular. This design can provide better contact area and adaptability, making the cooperation between the locking seat 7 and the pin body 10 more stable and tight. The design of the spherical surface helps to disperse the pressure when stressed, reducing wear and tear. The pin hole 8 is a hole in the middle of the locking seat 7 for inserting the pin body 10. One side of the pin hole 8 is connected with the abutting surface 9, and the diameter of this side of the abutting surface 9 is smaller than the diameter of the other side, forming a horn shape with one side large and the other side small. This design allows the pin body 10 to enter first with the smaller diameter side when inserted into the pin hole 8, and then gradually transition to the larger diameter side, which ensures the stable insertion and fixation of the pin body 10.

[0039] Further, the fixed seat 1 is designed as a square structure, which can provide a stable base and is convenient for docking and fixing with the workbench. The length of the bottom side of the fixed seat 1 can be determined according to the size of the workbench and the size of the welded workpiece to ensure enough space to accommodate the moving seat 4 and other components. The locking seat 7 is also designed as a square structure, matching the shape of the fixed seat 1, to facilitate installation and alignment. The length of the bottom side of the locking seat 7 is less than 1 / 2 of the length of the bottom side of the fixed seat 1. This size design allows the locking seat 7 to have enough space to move and position inside the fixed seat 1 while maintaining the compactness of the structure. The length of the bottom side of the locking seat 7 is less than 1 / 2 of the length of the bottom side of the fixed seat 1. This size relationship helps to ensure that the locking seat 7 does not touch the side walls of the fixed seat 1 when moving inside the fixed seat 1, thereby avoiding interference during adjustment.

[0040] It is important to note that the hole sites 11 are a plurality of small holes evenly distributed on the sidewall of the pin body 10, used to accommodate the balls 12. The balls 12 are a plurality of small balls arranged inside the pin body 10, corresponding one-to-one with the hole sites 11. The diameter of the hole sites 11 is smaller than the diameter of the balls 12, such a design allows the balls 12 to fit tightly in the hole sites 11, but not completely sink into the hole sites 11, thus maintaining the stability and adjustability of the balls 12. When the top block 14 is screwed into the pin body 10, the center ball 13 on the top block 14 will push the balls 12 into the hole sites 11. Due to the diameter of the hole sites 11 being smaller than the diameter of the balls 12, the balls 12 will generate a certain pre-tightening force in the hole sites 11, which helps to improve the stability of the pin body 10 in the locking seat 7. When vibrations or impacts occur during the welding process, the pre-tightening force can prevent the balls 12 from coming out of the hole sites 11, thus maintaining the fixed position of the pin body 10.

[0041] It is important to note that the center ball 13 is a larger ball arranged on the top block 14, used to push the balls 12 into the hole sites 11. The pin body 10 is a component with a hollow chamber, inside which a plurality of balls 12 and hole sites 11 are arranged. The diameter of the center ball 13 is greater than 3 / 4 of the inner diameter of the pin body 10, such a design can ensure that the center ball 13 can generate enough pressure when pushed into the pin body 10, firmly pushing the balls 12 into the hole sites 11. When the top block 14 is screwed into the pin body 10, the center ball 13 will come into contact with the inner wall of the pin body 10 and generate pressure. Due to the larger diameter of the center ball 13, it can effectively push the balls 12 into the hole sites 11, while ensuring the stability of the top block 14 in the pin body 10. The larger diameter of the center ball 13 helps to improve the stability of the top block 14 in the pin body 10. During the welding process, even if vibrations or impacts occur, the larger center ball 13 can maintain the position of the top block 14, preventing the balls 12 from coming out of the hole sites 11.

[0042] It is important to note that the cover 16 is a component that covers the fixed seat 1, its main function is to protect the internal components of the fixed seat 1, such as the moving seat 4, the locking seat 7, the adjusting screw 6, etc., preventing dust and debris from entering, while also serving an aesthetic purpose. The cover 16 can be made of the same or different materials as the fixed seat 1, such as metal or plastic, depending on the required strength and wear resistance. The cover 16 is connected to the fixed seat 1 by means of fastening bolts 15. These fastening bolts 15 pass through corresponding holes in the cover 16 and the fixed seat 1, tightly fixing the two together. The cover 16 is provided with a central hole 17, which is used to accommodate the movement of the pin body 10. The size and shape of the central hole 17 should be larger than the outer diameter of the pin body 10, to ensure that the pin body 10 can move freely therein, while maintaining the integrity and sealing of the cover 16.

[0043] It is worth noting that the grooves 18 are a groove-shaped structure arranged on the side wall of the pin body 10, which are located below the hole positions 11. The main function of these grooves 18 is to provide mounting positions for the fastening ring 19. The shape and size of the grooves 18 should match the fastening ring 19 to ensure that the fastening ring 19 can be stably sleeved in the grooves 18. The fastening ring 19 is a ring-shaped component, which is used to sleeve in the grooves 18 of the pin body 10. The fastening ring 19 can be made of metal or plastic, etc. depending on the required strength and durability. The main function of the fastening ring 19 is to limit the sliding of the ball 12 in the pin body 10 to ensure the stability of the pin body 10 during welding.

[0044] Although embodiments of the present application have been shown and described, it is to be understood that various modifications, substitutions, replacements and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present application, and the scope of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.

[0045] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present application are:

[0046] The adjustable positioning pin device of the present application effectively solves the problem of frequent replacement of fixtures due to different outer diameters of workpieces in traditional welding processes. Since the device has adjustability, it can quickly adapt to workpieces of different sizes, greatly reducing the time and labor cost of replacing fixtures, thereby significantly improving the welding efficiency.
