TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a meter body assembly machining clamp. BACKGROUND
[0002] The vortex flowmeter is a kind of volume flowmeter that measures the volume flow, volume flow or mass flow of gas, steam or liquid according to the Karman vortex principle. The vortex flowmeter is a very advanced and ideal measuring instrument, and is widely used in the flow measurement of industrial pipeline medium fluid. The vortex flowmeter includes a meter body assembly, an anti-interference sensor, a display, a vortex generator, a disassembly assembly, a connecting assembly and a handle.
[0003] As a kind of meter body assembly, please refer to Figure 1 The meter body assembly N is composed of a pipe body N-1 and a probe seat N-4 combined and welded as a whole. The pipe body N-1 is provided with an inner hole N-11 in the center, and left and right flanges (N-2, N-3) are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the pipe body N-1. When the probe seat N-2 is welded with the pipe body N-1, the probe hole of the probe seat N-2 and the side hole of the pipe body N-1 are required to be concentric and equal in diameter. After welding, when it is detected that there is a deviation in the radial hole N-12 combined by the probe hole and the side hole, the main problem is that the perpendicularity between the radial hole N-12 and the inner hole N-11 of the pipe body N-1 cannot meet the precision requirement, and then the radial hole N-12 of the meter body assembly needs to be modified and processed (using machining methods such as drilling or boring), and a clamp for positioning and clamping the meter body assembly needs to be designed when the radial hole N-1 of the meter body assembly is modified and processed, and the perpendicularity precision requirement between the radial hole N-12 and the inner hole N-11 needs to be met.
[0004] In addition, after searching, no special clamp or tool for machining the radial hole of the meter body assembly of the vortex flowmeter described above is found.
[0005] However, the machining clamp for flange or pipe is currently only disclosed (for reference, CN213040073U, CN209407511U, etc.), but it has the following problems when used in the product.

At the same time, the manual clamping device is used, which has low clamping efficiency and poor stability. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
