Description

[0002] The positioning structure of the measuring device usually contains a reference plane, and two positioning pins are fixed on the reference plane: a round pin and a rhombic pin, which correspond to two positioning holes on the workpiece to be measured. When positioning, the round pin realizes reference positioning by cooperating with a positioning hole, and the rhombic pin cooperates with another hole to control the angular position of the workpiece relative to the round pin. The cross-sectional dimension of the rhombic pin is slightly smaller than the diameter of the corresponding positioning hole. This design can be compatible with the hole distance deviation and diameter deviation of the two positioning holes, thereby ensuring that the measurement error is within the allowable range.

When the workpiece to be measured and the material of the positioning platform of the measuring device are the same, or the difference in linear expansion coefficient between the two is small, the above positioning method can meet the measurement accuracy requirement. However, if the difference in linear expansion coefficient between the two is large (for example, the positioning platform is made of steel and the workpiece to be measured is made of aluminum), thermal deformation will cause the rhombic pin to deviate from the positioning hole, which may scratch the workpiece due to forced insertion.

[0044] The specific implementation of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0045] Example one:

[0046] As shown in the drawings, the pin positioning structure for measurement of the present embodiment comprises a first positioning hole 1 and a second positioning hole 2 on a workpiece 3 to be measured, and further comprises: Figures 1-10 a reference surface 4 fixedly arranged relative to a measurement device;

[0047] a reference positioning pin 5 fixedly arranged on the reference surface 4, used for plugging with the first positioning hole 1 to determine the reference point when the workpiece 3 is positioned;

[0048] a floating connection structure 7 arranged on the reference surface 4;

[0049] a floating positioning pin 6 movably connected with the reference surface 4 through the floating connection structure 7, and the axis of the reference positioning pin 5 and the floating positioning pin 6 is located in the same plane, which is an angular positioning surface;

[0050] In the present embodiment, the reference positioning pin 5 is located in the first positioning hole 1, and the axis of the floating positioning pin 6 changes its position in the angular positioning surface during the process of the floating positioning pin 6 being inserted into the second positioning hole 2, and when the first positioning hole 1 is plugged with the reference positioning pin 5, the second positioning hole 2 is plugged with the floating positioning pin 6, and the workpiece 3 is in contact with the reference surface 4, the workpiece 3 is positioned.

[0051] The floating positioning pin 6 comprises a first connecting column 61 and a first guide part 62 at the end of the first connecting column 61; the reference positioning pin 5 comprises a second connecting column 51 fixedly connected with the reference surface 4, and a second guide part 52 is arranged at the upper end of the second connecting column 51, and the second guide part 52 is a tapered surface or a spherical surface matching the diameter of the first positioning hole 1.

[0052]

[0053] ​For a two-pin, one-sided positioning method, a guide portion is typically provided at the end of the positioning pin to guide the smooth insertion of the two circular positioning holes and the positioning pin of the workpiece 3. In this embodiment, the reference positioning pin 5 serves as the reference point for positioning the workpiece 3. It is necessary to control a small assembly gap to ensure the accuracy of the reference point's position while ensuring a smooth insertion process. Setting the second guide portion 52 as a conical or spherical surface can meet the insertion guidance requirements. Similarly, the first guide portion 62 provided at the end of the floating positioning pin 6 also facilitates insertion with the second positioning hole 2.

[0054] The reference positioning pin 5 is fixedly set on the reference surface 4 as the reference point for positioning the workpiece 3. The floating positioning pin 6 is movably set on the reference surface 4 to ensure that the axes of the two positioning pins are located in the same plane. The insertion of the floating positioning pin 6 and the second positioning hole 2 determines the angular direction of the workpiece 3, while allowing the floating positioning pin 6 to change its position in the angular plane. When the linear expansion coefficient of the workpiece 3 to be measured is significantly different from that of the positioning platform, and the distance between the first positioning hole 1 and the second positioning hole 2 of the same workpiece 3 varies significantly at different temperatures, the measurement system can adapt to the measurement of the workpiece 3 at different temperatures.

[0059] The first guide part 62 is a conical or spherical surface that matches the diameter of the second positioning hole 2. This means that the maximum size of the conical or spherical surface has a small assembly gap with the second positioning hole 2, ensuring the accuracy of angular positioning while making the insertion process smooth.

[0060] The floating positioning pin 6 is slidably connected to the reference surface 4 by the sliding seat 71.

[0062] The sliding seat 71 and the bottom plate 73 are provided with a sliding pad 72 slidingly connected with the sliding seat 71.

[0063] In another embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 、 Figure 5 the sliding pad 72 comprises a pad plate 722 and a plurality of rolling balls 721 rotatably installed on the pad plate 722, and the plurality of rolling balls 721 are slidingly connected with the sliding seat 71. The sliding seat 71 slides smoothly.

[0064] In the case where the positioning accuracy requirement is not particularly high, in another embodiment, the cross section of the first connecting column 61 is rhombic, the structural size of the rhombus is smaller than the cross section size of the second positioning hole 2, and the projection shape of the first guide part 62 on the datum surface 4 is the same as the rhombus. Specifically, as shown in Figure 2 the distance between a pair of vertices of the rhombus located on the center line of the two positioning pins is smaller than the diameter of the second positioning hole 2, so that the positioning is more smooth.
