[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts processing fixtures, specifically a milling fixture for automotive gear shift panels. Background Technology
[0002] Milling the display area is a crucial step in the production of automotive gear shift panels. However, existing fixtures present several problems when fixing the gear shift panel workpiece. For example, traditional fixtures struggle to simultaneously secure the workpiece and fully expose the display area to be machined, leading to interference during milling, which affects machining accuracy and efficiency. Furthermore, the design of traditional fixtures is flawed in workpiece handling, increasing worker workload and time costs, and reducing overall production efficiency. Therefore, this solution proposes a milling fixture for automotive gear shift panels that addresses these issues. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problems of existing fixtures causing difficulty in fully exposing the processing area, easy interference, and inconvenience in picking up and placing the workpiece when fixing the workpiece, so as to achieve convenient processing, improved picking and placing efficiency, and assembly effect.
[0004] A milling fixture for an automotive gear shift panel includes: a base plate and a clamping handle mounted on the base plate. The base plate is equipped with an inclined clamping block, an upper left clamping block, a top clamping block, and a right clamping block. The space enclosed by the inclined clamping block, upper left clamping block, top clamping block, and right clamping block forms a part processing area, where a workpiece is assembled. The workpiece includes a display area, an upwardly protruding stop opening, and an arched plate. The stop opening is located on the right side of the display area, and the arched plate is located below the stop opening. The display area includes three light-blocking grooves formed by milling. A pressure block is fixedly mounted on the clamping end of the clamping handle, and the pressure block clamps the stop opening, thereby fixing the workpiece.
[0005] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a lower left clamping block is also provided on the left side of the arched plate. The lower left clamping block is fixedly installed on the base plate to improve the fixing effect on the workpiece.
[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, two countersunk holes are provided on the lower left clamping block, the inclined clamping block, the upper left clamping block, the top clamping block, and the right clamping block. Countersunk bolts are installed in the countersunk holes, which are used to hide the bolts and prevent them from bumping into the workpiece and the milling equipment.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the inner sides of the lower left clamping block, the oblique clamping block, the upper left clamping block, the top clamping block, and the right clamping block are all designed with arc-shaped chamfers to prevent scratching the workpiece.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the pressure block has a square structure and completely covers the opening of the stop bar.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a protective pad is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the pressure block.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0011] This invention forms a stable part processing area by rationally arranging the inclined clamping block, upper left clamping block, top clamping block, right clamping block, and lower left clamping block. By clamping the workpiece's stop opening with the clamping handle and pressure block, the display area on the left side is fully exposed, providing ample space for milling the stop groove. This effectively avoids interference during processing, greatly improving processing accuracy and quality. The arched plate below the stop opening is used for picking up and placing workpieces. Compared with traditional fixtures, this method is more convenient and faster, significantly improving picking and placing efficiency, and thus enhancing overall production efficiency.
[0012] The countersunk hole design on the clamping block, the rounded chamfering on the inner side, and the protective pad not only protect the workpiece and the milling equipment, but also prevent scratches on the workpiece, further improving the practicality and assembly effect of the fixture.

Detailed Implementation
[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0019] Example 1
[0020] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, a specific embodiment of the automobile gear shift panel milling fixture of the present invention includes: a base plate 1 and a clamping handle 2 installed on the base plate 1; the base plate 1 is equipped with an inclined clamping block 4, an upper left clamping block 5, a top clamping block 6, and a right clamping block 7, and the space enclosed by these clamping blocks is the part processing area, in which the workpiece 10 is assembled.
[0021] The workpiece 10 has a unique structure, including a display area 13, an upwardly protruding stop opening 15, and an arched plate 16. The stop opening 15 is located on the right side of the display area 13, and the arched plate 16 is located below the stop opening 15. The display area 13 needs to be milled to form three light-blocking grooves 14. A pressure block 11 is fixedly installed on the pressure end of the pressure handle 2. The pressure block 11 presses the stop opening 15, thereby firmly fixing the workpiece 10.
[0022] To further improve the fixing effect on the workpiece 10, a lower left clamping block 3 is provided on the left side of the arched plate 16, and the lower left clamping block 3 is fixedly installed on the base plate 1.
[0023] Two countersunk holes 8 are provided on the lower left clamping block 3, the inclined clamping block 4, the upper left clamping block 5, the top clamping block 6, and the right clamping block 7. Countersunk bolts 9 are installed in the countersunk holes 8. The purpose of this design is to hide the bolts and effectively prevent the bolts from hitting the workpiece 10 and the milling equipment during the processing.
[0024] Meanwhile, in order to prevent the inner side of the clamping blocks from scratching the workpiece 10, the inner sides of the lower left clamping block 3, the oblique clamping block 4, the upper left clamping block 5, the top clamping block 6, and the right clamping block 7 are all designed with curved chamfers.
[0025] The pressure block 11 is designed as a square structure and completely covers the stop bar opening 15. A protective pad 12 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the pressure block 11 to protect the stop bar opening 15 of the workpiece 10.
[0026] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the base plate 1 is placed in a suitable position on the milling equipment and fixed. Then, the workpiece 10 is assembled and placed. By operating the clamping handle 2, the clamping block 11 moves downward and clamps the stop bar opening 15 of the workpiece 10, thereby firmly fixing the workpiece 10 on the fixture. At this time, the display area 13 of the workpiece 10 is fully exposed, which facilitates the milling equipment to perform milling operation of the stop bar groove 14 on the display area 13. After the processing is completed, the worker reverses the operation of the clamping handle 2 to release the stop bar opening 15 of the clamping block 11. Then, the processed workpiece 10 can be easily taken out through the arched plate 16. The lower left clamping block 3 plays an auxiliary role in fixing the workpiece 10 and ensures the stability of the workpiece 10 during the processing. The countersunk hole 8 and the arc chamfer design on the clamping block effectively avoid damage to the workpiece 10 and the milling equipment, ensuring the smooth progress of the processing. The protective pad 12 protects the stop bar opening 15 of the workpiece 10.

[0028] While the specific embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above, this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Modifications or variations that do not involve creative labor are still within the protection scope of this utility model.
