[0030] The top of the working box 7 is uniformly provided with vertical holes, which are preferably distributed in a rectangular array. A support column 2 for supporting the thin-walled part is inserted and installed in each vertical hole. The support column 2 can move axially in the vertical hole to contact the thin-walled part.
[0031] Two locking plates 6 are installed inside the working box 7 through the guide assembly 4. The two locking plates 6 are rectangular plates arranged horizontally and parallel to each other, so that each locking plate 6 can move horizontally along the guide assembly 4.
[0032] A first sliding groove 8 is obliquely arranged at the center of the upper locking plate 6, and a second sliding groove 11 is obliquely arranged at the center of the lower locking plate 6. The first sliding groove 8 and the second sliding groove 11 are symmetrically arranged. A driving assembly 5 is installed at the lower side of the working box 7. The upper end of the driving assembly 5 is slidingly installed in the first sliding groove 8 and the second sliding groove 11. The upper end of the driving assembly 5 can move forward and backward in the first sliding groove 8 and the second sliding groove 11 simultaneously, thereby realizing the action of moving the two locking plates 6 in a synchronous opposite direction (moving closer to each other or moving away from each other).
[0033] The locking plate 6 is uniformly provided with a long hole 9. The long hole 9 is arranged below the vertical hole. The bottom of the support column 2 passes through the long hole 9 arranged in alignment. After the two locking plates 6 move in opposite directions, the long hole 9 arranged in alignment has two working states, i.e., clamping the support column 2 passing through the inside, at which time the support column 2 cannot move, or releasing the clamping of the support column 2, at which time the support column 2 can move.

The second column 23 passes through the long hole 9 arranged in alignment. The diameter of the ball head 21 and the diameter of the second column 23 are both larger than the diameter of the first column 22, which has a limiting effect, so that the first column 22 will not fall off when moving in the vertical hole. The form of the ball head 21 is more conducive to abutting against the surface of the thin-walled part.
[0038] Structure of the guiding assembly 4:
[0039] The guiding assembly 4 includes linear bearings 41 and guiding rods 42, the linear bearings 41 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the mutually distanced side walls of the locking plates 6, the axes of the linear bearings 41 are arranged in parallel with the axes of the rotating shafts in the turnover workbench 1, the linear bearings 41 are insertedly installed with one ends of the guiding rods 42, the other ends of the guiding rods 42 are fixedly assembled with the working box 7; the movement of the linear bearings 41 along the guiding rods 42 can provide the supporting basis for the left-right translation of the locking plates 6.

[0042] The pneumatic cylinder 53 can move the two guiding wheels 51 forward and backward through the push rod 52, because the first sliding groove 8 and the second sliding groove 11 are arranged obliquely and symmetrically, when the push rod 52 is pushed forward, the first sliding groove 8 and the second sliding groove 11 are distributed in V shape (the direction of the top view is the reference), at this time, the upper locking plate 6 moves to the right, and the lower locking plate 6 moves to the left; when the push rod 52 is pushed backward, the first sliding groove 8 and the second sliding groove 11 are distributed in inverted V shape (the direction of the top view is the reference), at this time, the upper locking plate 6 moves to the left, and the lower locking plate 6 moves to the right.
[0043] In addition, in order to improve the effect of clamping the supporting column 2:

[0047] Positioning installation stage: the turnover workbench 1 keeps the work tank 7 horizontal, and the positioning assembly 3 faces upward, which facilitates the installation and positioning of the thin-walled part through the cooperation of the light pole screw 31 and the sleeve 32, avoids the deformation caused by the use of traditional clamps, and drives the upper locking plate 6 to move leftwards, the lower locking plate 6 to move rightwards, each pair of arc-shaped plates 10 to open away from each other, and the supporting column 2 to fall freely until the ball head 21 abuts against the upper surface of the work tank 7.
[0048] Uniform support stage: the turnover button on the controller is pressed once, the turnover workbench 1 overturns the work tank 7, the positioning assembly 3 drives the thin-walled part to face downward, the supporting column 2 still falls freely in the process, the ball head 21 gradually abuts against the thin-walled part, and the shape of the thin-walled part is met, the locking button is pressed, the driving assembly 5 drives the upper locking plate 6 to move rightwards, the lower locking plate 6 to move leftwards, each pair of arc-shaped plates 10 to abut against the supporting column 2, the position of the supporting column 2 is fixed and cannot move axially.
[0049] Processing stage: the turnover button is pressed once again, the thin-walled part is overturned to face upward, and the supporting column 2 uniformly supports the lower surface of the thin-walled part, which can play a uniform support effect when the tool head is cutting, and reduce the vibration on the thin-walled part.
[0050] When the same kind of thin-walled part is repeatedly processed, the work tank 7 does not need to be overturned again, and only the positioning assembly 3 needs to be disassembled and installed; when different thin-walled parts are processed, the above complete process is repeated to adjust the uniform support, so that the universality of clamping and supporting is high.
