[0031] The top of the tooling plate 1 is provided with a holding groove 11 for holding the plate material 2. The size of the holding groove 11 can be set to be suitable for the size of the plate material 2, so that the plate material 2 can be directly placed into the holding groove 11 using a suction cup tool. A clamp or a clamp tool can also be provided on the tooling plate 1 to fix the plate material 2 stored in the holding groove 11.

Figure 3 Fig. 3 shows a schematic top view of the tooling plate according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 shows a schematic top view of the tooling plate according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 1.

[0033] The driving device for driving the lifting rod to move can be a stepper motor. The output end of the stepper motor acts on a lead screw. The stepper motor is fixedly connected to the rod body 122 of the lifting rod 12. The lifting adjustment of the lifting rod 12 is realized by the movement of the stepper motor on the lead screw. The driving device can also be an adjustable air cylinder. The piston rod of the adjustable air cylinder is fixedly connected to the rod body 122 of the lifting rod 12.

Figure 4 Fig. 3 shows a schematic top view of the tooling plate according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 1. Figure 5 Fig. 3 shows a schematic top view of the tooling plate according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 1. Figure 4 Fig. 3 shows a schematic top view of the tooling plate according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 1. Figure 4The laser is positioned at the center of the laser mounting bracket 3. To further secure the laser mounting bracket, those skilled in the art can employ other fastening measures, such as screws or clips, which will not be elaborated upon here.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the light-receiving plate 6 is horizontally positioned above the fixture plate 1 and the laser 4. A light-receiving reference point 61 is provided on the light-receiving plate 6. During adjustment, the laser 4 emits a laser beam 5 onto the light-receiving plate 6. The light-receiving reference point 61 is configured such that when the laser spot 5 strikes the surface of the light-receiving plate 6 and coincides with the light-receiving reference point 61, the fixture plate 1 is horizontal. When the laser spot 5 deviates from the light-receiving reference point 61, the fixture plate 1 is no longer horizontal. A controller (not shown) controls the drive mechanism of the lifting rod 12 based on the position of the laser spot 5 on the light-receiving plate 6 relative to the light-receiving reference point 61, thereby adjusting the height of the lifting rod 12 and thus achieving the straightness adjustment of the fixture plate 1.

[0036] The flatness adaptive fixture may also include a camera (not shown). The camera is positioned opposite the light-receiving plate 6 and captures images of the surface of the light-receiving plate 6 to obtain the position information of the laser spot 5 on the surface of the light-receiving plate 6. The light-receiving plate 6 is preferably a white board. The camera is connected to a controller, and the camera feeds back the image information of the surface of the light-receiving plate 6 captured by the camera to the controller. The controller adjusts the lifting rod according to the image information of the surface of the light-receiving plate fed back by the camera. Based on the position of the laser spot 5 on the light-receiving plate 6 relative to the light-receiving reference point 61, the controller controls the driving device of the lifting rod 12 to realize the lifting and lowering adjustment of the lifting rod 12, thereby realizing the flatness adjustment of the fixture plate 1.

[0037] Alternatively, the light-receiving plate 6 can be configured as a laser sensor array, connected to a controller. The controller adjusts the lifting rod 12 based on the position information of the laser spot fed back by the laser sensor array, thereby adjusting the flatness of the tooling plate 1. For example, when the laser spot 5 illuminates a laser sensor in the laser sensor array, the illuminated laser sensor feeds back the position information of the laser spot 5 to the controller. The controller then controls the driving device of the lifting rod 12 based on the position of the laser spot 5 relative to the light-receiving reference point 61 to achieve the lifting and lowering adjustment of the lifting rod 12.

[0038] Figure 6 The diagram shows the method used to explain flatness adjustment. Figure 1 A bottom view of the tooling plate in the illustrated embodiment. Figure 7 The diagram shows the method used to explain flatness adjustment. Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the surface of the light-receiving plate in the illustrated embodiment.

[0039] For example Figure 6As shown, the bottom of the tooling plate 1 is provided with lifting rods A, B, C and D. A-B, C-D are the x direction, and A-C, B-D are the y direction perpendicular to the x direction. In Figure 7 the laser spot 5 is offset from the light receiving reference point 61, and there is a distance in both the x direction and the y direction. For example, in order to adjust the flatness of the tooling plate 1, the x direction can be corrected first, and then the y direction. When correcting the x direction, the lifting rods A, C or the lifting rods B, D can be moved synchronously to adjust the offset in the x direction. When correcting the y direction, the lifting rods A, B or the lifting rods C, D can be moved synchronously to adjust the offset in the y direction. The above is only an example, and those skilled in the art can design other adjustment methods according to their own needs or specific conditions.

[0040] Figure 8 As shown in the structural schematic diagram of the flatness self-adaptive tooling of the second embodiment of the utility model. Figure 9 As shown in the structural schematic diagram of the flatness self-adaptive tooling of the second embodiment of the utility model. Figure 8 The top view schematic diagram of the tooling plate in the embodiment. Figure 10 As shown in the structural schematic diagram of the flatness self-adaptive tooling of the second embodiment of the utility model. Figure 8 The surface schematic diagram of the light receiving plate in the embodiment.

[0041] Figure 8 As shown in the second embodiment of the utility model. The second embodiment is different from the first embodiment shown. Figure 1 The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment shown is that the laser mount 3 and the laser mount jack 14 are no longer provided. The second embodiment is provided with two lasers 4 on opposite sides of the holding groove 11. For example Figure 8 As shown, one laser 4 is provided on each of the left and right sides of the holding groove 11. Correspondingly, as shown Figure 10 As shown, two corresponding light receiving reference points 61 are provided on the surface of the light receiving plate 6 for the two lasers 4. When the laser spots 5 emitted by the two lasers 4 coincide with the two light receiving reference points 61 respectively, the tooling plate 1 is in a horizontal posture; when there is an offset (when one of the laser spots 5 is offset, the other laser spot 5 must also be offset), it means that the tooling plate 1 is no longer horizontal and needs to be adjusted. The adjustment method is similar to the first embodiment. The two laser spots can be selected to adjust one. When one of the laser spots 5 is aligned, the other laser spot 5 must also be aligned. Only one laser can also be provided on the tooling plate 1, and alignment and adjustment can also be completed. Two lasers are provided to be more accurate and convenient when aligning.

[0042] The significance of this invention lies in the fact that, each time a new sheet enters the holding tank after the previous sheet has been processed, the straightness can be automatically adjusted using a laser spot, ensuring that each sheet is processed in a horizontal position, thus guaranteeing processing accuracy and improving the yield rate. It also avoids the need to stop the production line periodically for adjustments, as was previously required with manual adjustments, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0043] The flatness adaptive fixture provided in this embodiment of the utility model uses laser alignment to determine the horizontal posture of the sheet metal and its fixture, and uses a lifting rod with a spherical end to adjust the posture of the sheet metal and its fixture, thereby achieving adaptive adjustment of the flatness of the sheet metal and its fixture. This allows for automatic adaptive adjustment of flatness after each processing, ensuring the horizontal posture of the sheet metal, improving yield and processing accuracy.

[0045] This utility model has been described by the above-described embodiments; however, these embodiments are merely examples for implementing this utility model. It must be noted that the disclosed embodiments do not limit the scope of this utility model. Conversely, any modifications and refinements made without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model are within the scope of patent protection of this utility model.
