[0017] like Figures 1-4 The shown aerospace component fixing fixture includes a base frame 1, on which multiple support columns 2 are vertically fixed. A base plate 3 is fixed to the upper end of each support column 2. The upper surface of the base plate 3 has multiple rectangular grooves 31. The bottom surface of each rectangular groove 31 has a Y-direction sliding groove 32, an X-direction sliding groove 33, and a positioning hole 34. The positioning hole 34 is located at the intersection of the extensions of the Y-direction sliding groove 32 and the X-direction sliding groove 33. A first clamping member 4 is slidably disposed within the Y-direction sliding groove 32, and a second clamping member 5 is slidably disposed within the X-direction sliding groove 33. Further, the first clamping member... The front ends of the clamping member 4 and the second clamping member 5 are fixed with flexible pads, which are made of silicone or polyurethane. The base frame 1 of the fixing fixture is also provided with a first driving mechanism and a second driving mechanism, which drive the first clamping member 4 and the second clamping member 5 to move along the Y-direction slide groove 32 and the X-direction slide groove 33, respectively. The clamping and fixing of the parts is achieved through the first clamping member 4, the second clamping member 5 and the side wall of the rectangular groove 31. In addition, the contact surface of the silicone pad is provided with anti-slip texture, which reduces local stress through elastic buffering and avoids deformation or surface scratches of the parts.

[0018] In one specific embodiment, two support columns 2 (height adjustable) are vertically welded onto the base frame 1. The top of the support columns 2 is fixed to the base plate 3 by bolts. The upper surface of the base plate 3 is machined with four rectangular grooves 31. The rectangular grooves 31 adopt a modular structure and are installed on the base frame 1 by magnetic attraction or snap-fit. The positioning hole 34 is located at the intersection of the extensions of the two slides and is used to insert a positioning pin for initial positioning. For parts with holes or grooves on the surface, the positioning pin is used for coarse positioning.

[0019] As Figure 3 shown, the first driving mechanism includes a longitudinal slide rail 41, a longitudinal slide block 42 and a first cylinder 43, wherein the longitudinal slide rail 41 is fixed on the chassis 1 by bolts, the longitudinal slide block 42 is slidingly connected to the slide rail 41, and the first clamping piece 4 is fixedly connected to the longitudinal slide block 42. The cylinder body of the first cylinder 43 is fixed on the upper side of the chassis 1, and the piston rod drives the longitudinal slide block 42 to move through the first connecting plate 44, while driving the first clamping piece 4 to slide in the Y-direction sliding groove 32 through the longitudinal slide block 42.

[0020] As Figure 4 shown, the second driving mechanism includes a transverse slide rail 51, a transverse slide block 52 and a second cylinder 53, the transverse slide rail 51 is fixed on the chassis 1 by bolts, the arrangement direction of the transverse slide rail 51 is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the longitudinal slide rail 41, the second clamping piece 5 is fixedly connected to the transverse slide block 52, and the second cylinder 53 is arranged on the chassis 1 to drive the transverse slide block 52 to move. The clamp is driven by double cylinders to realize X / Y bidirectional synchronous clamping. In a preferred embodiment, the cylinders 43, 53 use servo electric cylinders, integrate a PLC control system, and realize closed-loop control of clamping force and displacement. Pressure sensors are embedded in the first clamping piece 4 and the second clamping piece 5 respectively, to display the clamping force in real time and alarm when the limit is exceeded.

[0021] In addition, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the first guide mechanism 6 includes a first fixed block 61 (welded to the chassis 1) and a first guide rod 62, one end of the first guide rod 62 is fixedly connected to the longitudinal slide block 42, and the other end passes through a horizontal hole of the first fixed block 61 and is slidingly connected thereto. The second guide mechanism 7 has basically the same structure as the first guide mechanism 6, including a second fixed block 71 and a second guide rod 72 horizontally penetrating the second fixed block 71, the second fixed block 71 is fixed on the chassis 1, one end of the second guide rod 72 is fixedly connected to the transverse slide block 52 through an ear plate, and the other end is slidingly matched with a horizontal hole opened at the upper end of the second fixed block 71. The cooperation of the guide rod and the fixed block eliminates the lateral deviation of the cylinder drive, ensuring the stability of the linear motion of the clamping piece.

[0022] Further, the support column 2 is of a telescopic structure, such as an electric rod, a telescopic cylinder, etc. The electric telescopic column is suitable for workpieces of different thicknesses, reducing the changeover time.

[0023] The working principle of the clamp is as follows:

[0024] 1. Initial positioning: place the aviation parts on the base plate 3, and complete the rough positioning by the positioning pins pre-inserted into the positioning holes 34.

[0025] 2. Clamping adjustment: start the first cylinder 43 and the second cylinder 53, drive the first clamping piece 4 and the second clamping piece 5 to move along the Y-direction sliding groove 32 and the X-direction sliding groove 33 respectively, until the silica gel pad 8 contacts the side wall of the part.

[0026] 3. Locking detection: after the clamping force reaches the set value (feedback by the pressure sensor), the cylinder automatically maintains pressure, and the fixing is completed.

[0027] The embodiment significantly improves the clamping efficiency and quality of the aviation parts by the modular structure and the high-precision driving design, and is suitable for manufacturing scenes such as aircraft assembly lines, detection lines and composite material forming.

[0028] The above embodiment only expresses the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and the description is more specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as the limitation of the patent range of the utility model.
