Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of CNC machine tool technology, and in particular to a positioning fixture for CNC machine tools. Background Technology
[0002] A CNC machine tool is an automated machine tool equipped with a program control system. It can move and machine parts according to a pre-programmed sequence. For complex parts requiring machining of multiple surfaces and angles, such as automotive engine blocks and aerospace components, positioning fixtures ensure the positional and dimensional accuracy of each machined surface. For example, when machining the various mounting surfaces and holes of an engine block, the positioning fixture precisely fixes the block, preventing displacement or deformation during machining, thus guaranteeing the positional accuracy of each hole and the flatness of each surface of the block.
[0003] CNC machine tools can precisely control the movement trajectory of the cutting tool in three-dimensional space according to a pre-programmed program, thereby machining parts with various complex shapes. For example, parts with complex curved surfaces and internal structures, such as impellers in aircraft engines and cylinder blocks in automobile engines, can be machined with high precision using CNC machine tools.
[0004] In existing technologies, some CNC machine tools have difficulty fixing the workpiece during use. If the workpiece is not firmly fixed, it will undergo slight displacement during processing, resulting in the machined dimensions not matching the design dimensions. For example, when milling a plane, the movement of the workpiece will cause inconsistent milling depth, resulting in flatness errors and dimensional deviations. If the workpiece is not firmly fixed, it may suddenly shift or fall off during processing, which will cause processing interruption, requiring machine stoppage to re-fix the workpiece and adjust processing parameters, wasting a lot of time. Therefore, to address the above shortcomings, a positioning fixture for CNC machine tools is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0033] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0034] Reference Figures 3 to 5This utility model provides an embodiment of a positioning fixture for a CNC machine tool, comprising a housing 1, which provides overall protection and support. A base 2, fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing 1, provides a stable foundation for the entire device. Two guide rails 3 in the moving assembly are fixed to the top left and right sides of the base 2. Guide rails 3 cooperate with sliding blocks 4, allowing sliding blocks 4 to slide on guide rails 3, thereby driving the top fixed plate 5 to move left and right. Guide rails 6 on the front and rear sides of the top of the fixed plate 5 cooperate with sliding blocks 7, allowing sliding blocks 7 to slide on guide rails 6, driving a support plate 8 to move back and forth, thus achieving multi-directional movement and adjustment of the workpiece. The moving plate 9 on the top of the support plate 8 provides an installation platform for other components. The positioning box 10 on the top left of the moving plate 9 is used to assist in determining the position of the workpiece, and the fixed box 11 on the top right of the moving plate 9 houses the motor 1. The second component provides installation space. After the motor 12 starts, it drives the rotating rod 13 to rotate, and the gear 14 on the rotating rod 13 rotates accordingly. The gear 14 meshes with the gear 2 16, driving the gear 2 16 to rotate. The gear 2 16 is mounted on the rotating rod 2 15, causing the rotating rod 2 15 to rotate. The rotating rod 13 and the rotating rod 2 15 respectively drive the rotating column 17 on their respective external surfaces to rotate. The spiral groove 18 on the outside of the rotating column 17 cooperates with the spiral block 19. When the rotating column 17 rotates, the spiral block 19 moves along the spiral groove 18. The two spiral blocks 19 drive the support frame 20 to move, and the sliding column 21 on the left side of the support frame 20 moves accordingly. The clamping plate 22 on the left side of the sliding column 21 is used to clamp the workpiece, thereby fixing the workpiece and ensuring that the workpiece always stays in the correct position during processing, avoiding processing errors caused by workpiece movement, and ensuring the accuracy of processing dimensions.
[0035] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 In the cooling assembly, the water inlet pipe 23 is fixed inside the moving plate 9 and the support plate 8. The collection box 24 connected to its bottom is used to collect water and iron filings. The filter box 25 inside the collection box 24 can filter impurities such as iron filings. The pipe 26 on the right side of the collection box 24 is connected to the water pump 27. The output end of the water pump 27 is connected to the pipe 28. After the water pump 27 is started, the water in the collection box 24 enters the water pump 27 through the pipe 26 and is then output by the water pump 27 through the pipe 28 to cool and remove dust from the workpiece. The baffle plates 29 on the front and rear sides of the top of the moving plate 9 prevent water from splashing out. The positioning box 10 is connected to the left side and the fixed box 11 is connected to the right side. The limiting posts 31 on the upper and lower sides inside the fixed box 11 guide the movement of the support frame 20. The limiting plate 30 on the right side of the positioning box 10 restricts the movement direction of the clamping plate 22. The control panel 32 on the front side of the housing 1 is used to control the operation of the entire device. The door 33 facilitates the operation and maintenance of the device.
[0036] Working principle: When it is necessary to fix the workpiece, the motor 12 is started, which drives the rotating rod 13 to rotate. The rotating rod 13 drives the gear 14 to rotate, which in turn drives the gear 16 to rotate. The gear 16 drives the rotating rod 15 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating column 17 to rotate. The rotating rod 13 drives the rotating column 17 to rotate, which in turn drives the spiral block 19 to move. The spiral block 19 drives the support frame 20 to move, which in turn drives the sliding column 21 to slide. The sliding column 21 then drives the clamping plate 22 to move, thus fixing the workpiece. This allows the workpiece to be precisely fixed and kept in the correct position during processing, avoiding processing errors caused by workpiece movement and ensuring the accuracy of the processing dimensions.
[0037] When it is necessary to cool down and remove dust from the workpiece, the water pump 27 is started. Water in the collection box 24 enters the water pump 27 through pipe 1 26, and water in the water pump 27 enters the nozzle through pipe 28. The water sprayed from pipe 28 carries iron filings and enters the filter box 25 through the water inlet pipe 23. Under the action of the filter box 25, the workpiece is cooled down and dust is removed during cutting. This reduces the wear and thermal deformation of the cutting tool and collects the dust to prevent it from spreading into the air.
[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
