[0024] The technical solution of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to specific embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0025] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4This application provides a quick positioning and clamping device for assembling air conditioning pressure plates, including an assembly table 1 and a positioning and clamping mechanism disposed on the top of the assembly table 1. A support base 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the assembly table 1, and a container 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the support base 2. Multiple air conditioning pressure plates 4 are stacked inside the container 3. A discharge port 5 is opened on the right side of the container 3. An electric push rod 6 is fixedly installed on the left outer wall of the container 3. The output shaft end of the electric push rod 6 extends into the container 3 and a push head 7 is fixedly installed thereon. The push head 7 is connected to the bottommost air conditioning pressure plate 4. The left side wall is in contact with the discharge port 5. The inner height of the discharge port 5 is 1.5 times the thickness of the air conditioning pressure plate 4. The longitudinal cross-sectional dimension of the push head 7 is the same as that of the output shaft end of the electric push rod 6. With the setting of the electric push rod 6 and the push head 7, the stacked air conditioning pressure plates 4 in the container 3 can be pushed out one by one, and it can be ensured that only one air conditioning pressure plate 4 is pushed out at a time, ensuring the orderliness and efficiency of material discharge. It can effectively replace the manual handling and placement of air conditioning pressure plates 4, and improve the efficiency of positioning and clamping air conditioning pressure plates 4 and subsequent assembly.

[0026] In this embodiment, the positioning and clamping mechanism is used to clamp the positioning air conditioning pressure plate 4. The positioning and clamping mechanism includes a shaft seat 8, a horizontal shaft 9, an electric push rod 11, a moving plate 12, a shaft seat 13, a horizontal shaft 14, two support beams 15, two U-shaped bearing plates 16, four electric push rods 17, and four clamping plates 18. The shaft seat 8 is fixedly installed on the right side wall of the support base 2. The horizontal shaft 9 is rotatably installed on the right side of the shaft seat 8. The top of the assembly table 1 has a slide groove 10 located on the right side of the support base 2. The electric push rod 11 is fixedly installed on the left inner wall of the slide groove 10. The moving plate 12 is fixedly installed on the output shaft end of the electric push rod 11. The top of the moving plate 12 extends outside the slide groove 10. The shaft seat 13 is fixedly installed on the left side wall of the moving plate 12. The horizontal shaft 14 is rotatably installed on the left side of the shaft seat 13. The axes of the horizontal shaft 9 and the horizontal shaft 14 are aligned. The two support beams 15 are respectively fixedly installed on the horizontal shaft 9 and the horizontal shaft 14. At one end, two U-shaped support plates 16 are fixedly installed on the top of the corresponding support beams 15. Four electric actuators 17 are fixedly installed on the front and rear outer walls of the two U-shaped support plates 16, respectively. Four clamping plates 18 are fixedly installed on the output shaft ends of the corresponding electric actuators 17. Utilizing the telescopic feature of the electric actuators 11, the moving plate 12 can be controlled to move horizontally and linearly, thereby controlling the horizontal and linear movement of the U-shaped support plate 16 on the right side. This allows for flexible adjustment of the spacing between the two U-shaped support plates 16 to adapt to the clamping and positioning requirements of the air conditioning pressure plate 4 under different working conditions. Using the electric actuators 17 on the front and rear sides of the U-shaped support plate 16, the corresponding clamping plates 18 at their output shaft ends can be controlled to move linearly, precisely clamping the air conditioning pressure plate 4 placed on the U-shaped support plate 16. This ensures the stability of the air conditioning pressure plate 4 during subsequent assembly, reduces deviations, and guarantees assembly accuracy. It should be noted that... Figure 3 As shown, the electric push rod 11 is in the extended state. The positioning and clamping mechanism also includes a base 19, a motor 20, a main gear 21, and a secondary gear 22. The base 19 is fixedly installed on the top of the assembly table 1 and located on the right side of the support base 2. The motor 20 is fixedly installed on the top of the base 19. The main gear 21 is fixedly installed on the output shaft end of the motor 20. The secondary gear 22 is fixedly mounted on the horizontal shaft 9. The main gear 21 and the secondary gear 22 mesh. The arrangement of the motor 20, the main gear 21, and the secondary gear 22 allows the horizontal shaft 9 to rotate under the drive of the motor 20, thereby driving the support beam 15 and the U-shaped bearing plate 16 to rotate. This allows for flexible adjustment of the tilt angle of the clamped and fixed air conditioning pressure plate 4, meeting the requirements of different assembly angles and enhancing the applicability of the device.

[0027] In this embodiment, the bottom inner wall of the U-shaped support plate 16 and the bottom inner wall of the discharge port 5 are on the same horizontal plane, ensuring that the air conditioning pressure plate 4 pushed out from the discharge port 5 can pass smoothly through the U-shaped support plate 16.

[0028] In this embodiment, the diameter of the main gear 21 is smaller than that of the secondary gear 22. The design that the diameter of the main gear 21 is smaller than that of the secondary gear 22 can achieve speed reduction and torque increase, making the rotation more stable, and can more accurately adjust the tilt angle of the clamped and fixed air conditioning pressure plate 4.

[0029] In this embodiment, a guide bar 23 is fixedly installed inside the slide groove 10, and the moving plate 12 is slidably mounted on the guide bar 23, which ensures the stability and straightness of the moving plate 12 when it moves under the action of the electric push rod 11, avoids deviation during the movement, and ensures the accurate operation of the positioning and clamping mechanism.

[0030] In this embodiment, an electromagnet 24 is fixedly installed on the left side wall of the movable plate 12, and an iron column 25 is fixedly installed on the right side wall of the left support beam 15. The right end of the iron column 25 is magnetically attracted and fixed to the electromagnet 24. The setting of the electromagnet 24 and the iron column 25 makes it convenient to lock the right support beam 15 when needed, which enhances the overall stability of the positioning and clamping mechanism and makes the operation more convenient.

[0031] In this embodiment, it should be further explained that a controller is installed on the front outer wall of the assembly table 1. The controller is equipped with multiple control buttons. The electric actuator 6, electric actuator 11, electric actuator 17, motor 20, electromagnet 24 and controller are electrically connected by wires. The multiple control buttons can be used to control the energization and operation of electric actuator 6, electric actuator 11, electric actuator 17, motor 20 and electromagnet 24 respectively. In addition, motor 20 is a reversible motor. Its wiring connection method and control method are mature technologies in the field and are fully disclosed. Therefore, they will not be described in detail here.

[0032] With the above structure, when using the quick positioning and clamping device for air conditioning pressure plate assembly provided in this application, firstly, multiple air conditioning pressure plates 4 to be assembled are stacked neatly and placed in the container 3. Then, according to the width of the air conditioning pressure plate 4, the electric push rod 11 is controlled to retract and reset, so that the moving plate 12 moves horizontally to the left. The bearing seat 13, the horizontal shaft 14, the support beam 15 and the U-shaped bearing plate 16 installed on the moving plate 12 follow the leftward movement. At this time, the distance between the two U-shaped bearing plates 16 gradually decreases. When the distance between the two U-shaped bearing plates 16 is adjusted to a suitable position (the distance between the two U-shaped bearing plates 16 is less than the width of the air conditioning pressure plate 4, ensuring that the two sides of the air conditioning pressure plate 4 can be placed on the two U-shaped bearing plates 16 respectively), the electric push rod 11 is stopped, thus completing the preparation work for positioning and clamping the air conditioning pressure plate 4.

[0033] After the above preparations are completed, the electric actuator 6 is extended, and its output shaft pushes the pusher head 7 to move linearly to the right. The pusher head 7 pushes the lowest air conditioning pressure plate 4 in the container 3 towards the right-side discharge port 5. Since the height of the discharge port 5 is 1.5 times the thickness of the air conditioning pressure plate 4, it can be ensured that only one air conditioning pressure plate 4 can pass through the discharge port 5 at a time, achieving orderly discharge. When the lowest air conditioning pressure plate 4 is gradually pushed onto the two U-shaped support plates 16, the electric actuator 6 is reset, causing the pusher head 7 to move back to the left.

[0034] Then, control the four electric actuators 17 to extend simultaneously, and their output shafts push the corresponding clamping plates 18 to move towards the center, so that the two clamping plates 18 on the left side clamp and fix the left side of the air conditioning pressure plate 4, and the two clamping plates 18 on the right side clamp and fix the right side of the air conditioning pressure plate 4. This will tightly clamp the air conditioning pressure plate 4 onto the two U-shaped bearing plates 16, and then the clamped and positioned air conditioning pressure plate 4 can be assembled. This will ensure that the air conditioning pressure plate 4 is stable in position during the assembly process and ensure assembly accuracy.

[0035] During the assembly of the air conditioning pressure plate 4, the power supply of the electromagnet 24 is disconnected, the magnetic attraction and fixation of the iron column 25 is released, and then the motor 20 is controlled to rotate, which drives the main gear 21 fixed at its output shaft end to rotate. The main gear 21 drives the auxiliary gear 22 to rotate. Since the diameter of the main gear 21 is smaller than the diameter of the auxiliary gear 22, the speed reduction and torque increase are achieved, which drives the horizontal shaft 9 to rotate at a low speed. The rotation of the horizontal shaft 9 then drives the support beam 15 and the U-shaped bearing plate 16 fixed at one end to rotate. The air conditioning pressure plate 4 clamped and fixed on the two U-shaped bearing plates 16 changes its angle accordingly to meet the requirements of different assembly angles.

[0036] After the air conditioning pressure plate 4 is assembled, control the motor 20 to rotate in the opposite direction, which will adjust the air conditioning pressure plate 4 back to the horizontal position. Then, control the electromagnet 24 to generate magnetic force, which will magnetically attract and fix the iron column 25. At this time, the right support beam 15 is locked. Then, control the four electric push rods 17 to retract and reset, which will release the fixation of the air conditioning pressure plate 4. The assembled air conditioning pressure plate 4 can then be removed. Then, following the above operation steps, the air conditioning pressure plate 4 at the bottom of the container 3 can be pushed out for quick clamping and positioning and subsequent assembly operations.
