[0029] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.

[0030] This application discloses a button and housing positioning fixture. (Refer to...) Figure 1The button and housing positioning fixture includes a support base 1, a positioning base 2, a first adjusting member 3, and a second driving member 4. The support base 1 is used to place and position the button; the positioning base 2 is used to place and position the housing; the first adjusting member 3 is used to adjust the vertical position of the positioning base 2. In some embodiments, the first adjusting member 3 is a spring, with several springs spaced apart. An external pressing device presses the positioning base 2, causing the springs to make the positioning base 2 vertically downward. After completion, the positioning base 2 is released, and due to the spring force, the positioning base 2 moves upward, allowing the housing to pop out. The second driving member 4 is a telescopic cylinder, which drives the positioning base 2 to move horizontally, causing the positioning base 2 to move closer to or away from the support base 1.

[0031] During installation, the button is positioned on the support base 1, and the outer shell is positioned on the positioning base 2. An external pressing device presses the outer shell to make it stable on the positioning base 2, so that the installation position of the outer shell corresponds to the button. The second driving component 4 drives the positioning base 2 to move towards the support base 1. After the outer shell is in place, it is assembled with the button. When the outer shell reaches above the button and corresponds to the button position, the outer shell is in place. An external pressing device presses the outer shell downward to complete the assembly of the outer shell and the button. After assembly, the first adjusting component 3 drives the positioning base 2 upward to lift the outer shell assembled with the button and release it from the support base 1. Through the precise drive of the first adjusting component 3 and the second driving component 4, the accurate assembly of the button and the outer shell is achieved, ensuring the production quality of the electronic equipment.

[0032] Reference Figure 2 In some embodiments, the button includes a button body and a back plate. The support base 1 is provided with back plate positioning pins 5, with one positioning pin at each end along the diagonal direction of the back plate for positioning the back plate. This allows the back plate to be easily positioned on the support base 1, and the placement position is more accurate.

[0033] In some embodiments, the support base 1 is further provided with button body positioning pins 6, one of each of the two ends of the diagonal of the button body, for positioning the button body. This allows the button body to be positioned more accurately.

[0034] In some embodiments, the support base 1 is provided with a plurality of vacuum holes 7. When the button is positioned on the support base 1, an external vacuum device adsorbs it and vacuum adsorbs the button onto the support base 1 through the vacuum holes 7, so that the button can be stably fixed.

[0035] Reference Figure 3In some embodiments, a housing positioning block 8 is provided on one side of the support base 1, with the housing positioning block 8 facing the positioning base 2. The housing positioning block 8 is used to position the housing. When the housing is placed on the positioning base 2, one end is positioned by the housing positioning block 8, so that the housing and the central axis of the button are on the same straight line, so that when the housing is moved towards the button and positioned, the position between the two can be more accurate.

[0036] In some embodiments, the button and housing positioning fixture further includes a base 12, and the positioning seat 2 is vertically slidably mounted on the base 12.

The horizontal guide rail 9 is screwed to the mounting platform 11, and the support base 1 is also mounted on the mounting platform 11 with a gap between it and the vertical direction of the horizontal guide rail 9. A plurality of horizontal guide blocks 10 are provided on the side of the base 12 facing the horizontal guide rail 9. The horizontal guide blocks 10 cooperate with the horizontal guide rail 9 and move along the guide rail, so that the positioning base 2 can move more stably.

[0038] In some embodiments, the button and housing positioning fixture further includes a mounting base 13 vertically slidably mounted on the base 12, a positioning seat 2 screwed to the mounting base 13, and a first adjusting member 3 disposed between the base 12 and the mounting base 13, which drives the mounting base 13 to move the positioning seat 2 in the vertical direction. The base 12 is also provided with a vertical guide rail 14, and both the positioning seat 2 and the mounting base 13 are provided with vertical guide blocks 15 that cooperate with the vertical guide rail 14, so that the positioning seat 2 can be moved up and down by the first adjusting member 3 more stably.

[0039] Refer again Figure 1 In some embodiments, a housing clamping assembly is also included, which is disposed on the side of the positioning seat 2 opposite to the support seat 1. The housing clamping assembly uses a spring clamp 16, which is prior art and will not be described in detail here. The spring clamp 16 is driven to move horizontally. When the housing is placed on the positioning seat 2, the spring clamp 16 is driven by a third driving member to move the housing toward the housing positioning block 8, thereby accurately positioning the housing.

[0040] The implementation principle of a button and housing positioning fixture in this application embodiment is as follows: The button is placed on the support base 1, and the housing is placed on the positioning base 2. Pressing down stabilizes the housing on the positioning base through the action of the first adjusting member 3, so that the installation position of the housing corresponds to the button. Then, the positioning base 2 is driven to move towards the support base 1 through the second driving member 4, so that the housing moves above the button to the position corresponding to the button. Then, the housing is pressed towards the button side by the external mechanism, so that the button and the housing are assembled together. After releasing, the positioning base 2 is moved upward by the first adjusting member 3 to pop the housing off the support base 1, so as to achieve accurate assembly of the button and the housing and ensure the production quality of electronic devices.
