[0031] See Figures 1 to 6 This utility model embodiment provides a connecting rod fixing device for fixing the small end of a connecting rod, wherein the small end of the connecting rod has a long side segment 100 and a short side segment 200.

[0032] Specifically, the connecting rod fixing device provided by the embodiment comprises a main frame 1, a fixing assembly 2 and an auxiliary support assembly 3 which are installed on the main frame 1; wherein the fixing assembly 2 comprises a first support seat 21, the upper end surface of the first support seat 21 is in abutment with the end surface of the long edge segment 100, and a spacing 4 is formed between the end surface of the long edge segment 100 and the end surface of the short edge segment 200; the auxiliary support assembly 3 comprises a support part 31 and a limiting part 32, the support part 31 is located at the spacing 4 and is in abutment with the end surface of the short edge segment 200, and the limiting part 32 can limit the movement of the support part 31.

[0033] It can be understood that, since the small head of the connecting rod is of irregular shape (for example, the small head of the connecting rod has the long edge segment 100 and the short edge segment 200 in the embodiment), the small head of the connecting rod is prone to deformation under the pressure during the process of pressing the bushing into the small head (i.e. the small head hole) of the connecting rod, thereby affecting the processing effect.
