Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0017] Please see Figures 1-4 In this embodiment of the utility model, the automated positioning fixture includes a fixed base 1. A connecting post 2 is vertically arranged at the top of the fixed base 1, and a locking ring 3 is elastically fitted at the top of the connecting post 2, forming a gap between the locking ring 3 and the connecting post 2. A storage groove 4 is formed at the top of the connecting post 2, and a plurality of through holes 5 are formed around the inner wall of the storage groove 4. A ball bearing 6 is placed inside each of the through holes 5, and the ball bearing 6 can move inside the through holes 5. A protrusion 8 is formed on the locking ring 3, and the protrusion 8 is formed around the top of the locking ring 3. The protrusion 8 is parallel to the through holes 5, and the protrusion 8 moves up and down with the locking ring 3 on one side of the through holes 5. Thus, when the locking ring 3 moves up and down at the top of the connecting post 2, the protrusion 8 pushes the ball bearing 6 inside the plurality of through holes 5, causing the ball bearing 6 to move out of the plurality of through holes 5. The through-hole 5 protrudes inside. When the T-iron placement rack needs to be inserted into the storage slot 4 at the top of the connecting column 2, the operator pulls the locking ring 3 downward, causing the protruding strip 8 to move downward from the side of several through-holes 5, thereby resetting the protruding ball 6. At this time, the operator inserts the T-iron placement rack into the storage slot 4 and releases the locking ring 3, causing the locking ring 3 and the protruding strip 8 to elastically reset. This causes the protruding strip 8 to move back to the side of several through-holes 5 and push the ball 6 again, so that the protruding ball 6 closes into the storage slot 4 and clamps and limits the T-iron placement rack placed in the storage slot 4. The cooperation between the locking ring 3 and the ball 6 allows different types of T-iron placement racks to be limited and fixed when inserted into the connecting column 2, thus ensuring that different types of T-irons and magnets do not need to be frequently replaced with corresponding clamps when they are glued together.

[0018] A spring 7 is provided between the locking ring 3 and the connecting post 2. The spring 7 is vertically fitted outside the top of the connecting post 2. The locking ring 3 is fitted outside the spring 7, and the upper and lower ends of the spring 7 contact the top of the inside of the locking ring 3 and the bottom of the outer side of the connecting post 2, respectively. Thus, the locking ring 3 can move elastically outside the top of the connecting post 2 through the spring 7. When the locking ring 3 moves elastically outside the connecting post 2 through the spring 7, it drives the protrusion 8 to push the ball 6, so that the ball 6 can move inside several through holes 5.

[0019] A retaining spring 9 is also provided between the locking ring 3 and the connecting post 2. The retaining spring 9 is horizontally inserted into the top of the connecting post 2 and is horizontally supported at the top of the locking ring 3. This allows the locking ring 3 to be limited by the retaining spring 9 when it elastically moves at the top of the connecting post 2, thereby preventing the locking ring 3 from flying off the connecting post 2 during elastic movement.

[0020] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
