Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of center positioning tooling technology, specifically to a center positioning tool for a pressure vessel processing device. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the workshop typically uses a measurement method to center circular workpieces (such as reinforcing rings for pressure vessels). The specific process is as follows: the center of the circular workpiece is roughly placed on the infrared positioning of the flame cutting machine. Then, one end is fixed to the edge of the circular workpiece, and the other end is moved along the edge of the workpiece and the length is measured. After finding the diameter of the circular workpiece, it can be determined whether the infrared positioning of the flame cutting machine is located at the center of the circular workpiece. If the infrared positioning of the flame cutting machine is not located at the center of the circular workpiece, the circular workpiece needs to be repositioned and measured again. If the infrared positioning of the flame cutting machine is exactly located at the center of the circular workpiece, it is also necessary to measure and verify again from other angles to ensure that the center of the circular workpiece is found accurately.
[0003] This measurement method is very cumbersome to operate, wastes a lot of time, and has low positioning accuracy, which seriously affects production efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, developing and designing a center positioning tool that is easy to operate, accurate in positioning, and highly efficient in production is an urgent problem to be solved at this stage. Utility Model Content

By adjusting the clamping positions of the two clamping seats and ensuring the sum of the distances measured by the ranging components matches the diameter of the circular workpiece, the measuring point is guaranteed to be located on the diameter of the circular workpiece.

When the sum of the distances measured by the two distance measuring components matches the diameter of the circular workpiece 6, it can be ensured that the measuring point 31 is located on the diameter of the circular workpiece 6. Then, the centering block 3 is moved along the axis of the telescopic rod 1 so that the distance values measured by the two distance measuring components are equal. At this time, the position of the measuring point 31 is the center origin of the circular workpiece 6.
[0033] In other embodiments, the number of telescopic rods 1 can also be other values, as long as the centering block 3 can move stably along the axial direction of the telescopic rod 1 without rotation.

Adjacent telescopic segments 11 can move relative to each other along the axial direction of the telescopic rod 1, thereby enabling the telescopic rod 1 to extend and retract along its axial direction.
[0037] For details, please refer to Figures 1-3 Each telescopic section 11 is provided with a sleeve, and adjacent sleeves can move relative to each other by means of sleeve connection; in other embodiments, adjacent telescopic sections 11 can also move relative to each other through a guide rail structure, so as to realize the extension and retraction of the telescopic rod 1.

[0042] Please refer to Figures 1-4 The specific usage process of this utility model is as follows:
[0043] Adjust the length of the telescopic rod 1 so that the circular workpiece 6 is placed between the two clamping seats 2 and the two clamping surfaces 21 abut against the outer edge of the circular workpiece 6 respectively; the distance value measured by the laser rangefinder 4 is displayed on the display screen 5 in real time.
[0044] By adjusting the clamping positions between the two clamping seats 2 and the circular workpiece 6, the sum of the distance values measured by the two laser rangefinders 4 is matched with the diameter of the circular workpiece 6.
[0045] Adjust the position of the centering block 3 so that the distance values measured by the two laser rangefinders 4 are equal. At this time, the position of the measuring point 31 is the center of the circular workpiece 6.
