Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to technical fields, concretely relates to a C type section workpiece positioning clamping tool. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the field of existing automatic guided vehicle (AGV) forklifts, the stacker fork truck, as a common logistics equipment, usually adopts a C-shaped cross-section structure for the design of its forks, and an opening for viewing the rollers is provided on the top surface. The two sides of the fork are usually provided with shaft holes for mounting the bearing wheels or separately provided with positioning holes. The fork and the frame are fixed by welding to effectively support the goods during stacking operations.

[0003] During the processing of the fork, the fork usually needs to be clamped and positioned to ensure the accuracy of subsequent processing. Generally, the workpiece is placed on the welding tool by hoisting, and clamping and positioning are performed by electric control. The existing welding tool usually adopts point positioning to clamp the workpiece, ensuring that the workpiece does not move during processing, thereby improving the processing accuracy. However, the current workpiece clamping and positioning technology still has certain problems, especially during workpiece loading and positioning. Specifically, when the workpiece is placed on the welding tool, the workpiece is usually in a free state, which makes it difficult to accurately align the clamping position during loading. Although the traditional point positioning method can ensure a certain clamping accuracy, the workpiece position is unstable during workpiece feeding, which can easily lead to inaccurate positioning and even workpiece deflection. This deflection can affect the accuracy of subsequent welding operations, causing assembly errors and possibly reducing production efficiency. In addition, the positioning method of the existing welding tool does not fully consider the dynamic changes of the workpiece during loading, and cannot effectively respond to complex situations that the workpiece may encounter in the actual production environment.
