Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of assembly equipment technology, specifically to an adjustable universal assembly fixture. Background Technology
[0002] Assembly fixtures are powerful tools that assist in the assembly and production of products. Their core function is to improve assembly efficiency and ensure quality and precision. They come in various types and each has its own function. Fixtures are like precise "positioning masters" that can accurately position and firmly clamp the parts to be assembled, eliminating assembly errors caused by shaking and displacement, and ensuring that the parts are in the correct position and fit together perfectly. Molds are like efficient "copy craftsmen". For example, stamping dies can mass-produce metal parts with uniform shapes, which can effectively ensure the consistency of assembled parts. Measuring tools act as rigorous "quality inspectors." Calipers, micrometers, and other instruments can accurately measure dimensions to ensure that product assembly meets design standards. In addition, specialized tooling racks organize parts in an orderly manner, and lifting equipment safely transports large components. In the automotive manufacturing industry, body welding uses specialized clamps to fix components and ensure welding accuracy. In aero-engine assembly, precision measuring tools and tooling work closely together to assemble parts strictly according to the design, safeguarding engine performance and safety. However, most assembly tooling lacks fine-tuning capabilities, and assembly stability may be difficult to meet requirements when dealing with irregularly shaped workpieces. Existing technologies may already have solutions to these problems, but this case aims to provide an alternative or replacement technical solution. Utility Model Content
[0003] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an adjustable universal assembly fixture, comprising: a fixture base, several fixture supports, several support plates, and several adjusting support slides. Several fixture supports are respectively mounted on the fixture base, several support plates are respectively mounted on the fixture supports, and several adjusting support slides are respectively mounted on the support plates. Several offset adjusting support structures are respectively installed on the offset adjusting support slides. Each offset adjusting support structure includes: a support frame, an upper slider, a lower slider, an adjusting screw, a connecting block, a connecting locking cap, a supporting push arm, a pair of cap locking bolts, a pair of upper block slots, a pair of limiting guide bolts, a pair of side push bolts, and a lower block locking ring.
[0004] The upper slider is installed inside the support frame and is connected to the lower slider. The lower slider is installed inside the support frame. The adjusting screw is inserted into the lower slider and is movably inserted into the support frame. The connecting block is installed on the upper slider and is connected to the connecting locking cap. The supporting push arm is inserted into the connecting block and is connected to the connecting locking cap. A pair of cap locking bolts are respectively inserted into the connecting locking cap. The cap locking bolts are respectively connected to the connecting mounting blocks. The upper slider has a pair of upper block slots. The pair of limiting guide bolts are respectively movably inserted into the pair of upper block slots and the pair of limiting guide bolts are respectively movably inserted into the support frame. The pair of side push bolts are respectively inserted into the support frame and the pair of side push bolts are respectively movably connected to the upper slider. The lower block locking ring is fitted on the adjusting screw and installed in the lower slider. The support push arm is equipped with an auxiliary fitting component.
[0005] It should be noted that, as described above, the tooling base, together with multiple tooling brackets, fully supports the four support plates. The four adjusting support slides rely on four guide rails installed on them, allowing the four support frames to slide horizontally on the adjusting support slides, thereby adjusting their relative positions to provide sufficient support for the assembled workpiece. Tightening a pair of side push-positioning bolts on the support frame allows the upper slider to slide left and right within the support frame. A pair of slotted upper blocks, along with a pair of limiting guide bolts inserted within them, ensure that the upper slider remains in the center position within the support frame, facilitating subsequent fine-tuning and preventing the upper slider from shifting or jamming within the support frame. When supporting the workpiece, it is more stable. The supporting push arm is inserted between the connecting mounting block and the connecting locking cap. It is connected and locked by a pair of cap locking bolts relying on the hexagonal screw holes. When the adjusting screw on the supporting support frame is turned, it will drive the lower block locking ring and the lower slider to move within the supporting support frame. Because the inclined surfaces of the upper slider and the lower slider are in contact with each other, when the lower slider moves within the supporting support frame, the upper slider will rise or fall, thereby increasing or decreasing the relative height of the supporting push arm. The anti-slip threads on the side push bolts make it easy for workers to grip the side push bolts and prevent slippage.
[0006] Preferably, the auxiliary bonding component includes: a push-couple plate, a plurality of bonding block placement plugs, an assembly connection bonding block, and an assembly workpiece;
[0007] The push-position coupling plate is installed on the support push-position arm, and a plurality of the patch block placement bolts are respectively inserted into the push-position coupling plate, and the plurality of the patch block placement bolts are respectively connected to the assembly connection patch block, and the assembly connection patch block is movably connected to the assembly workpiece.
[0008] It should be noted that, as described above, the assembly connecting blocks are stably installed on the push coupling plate by means of multiple blocks to place the bolts. The bonding auxiliary pads set on the assembly connecting blocks can make the four assembly connecting blocks more firmly bonded to the surface of the assembly workpiece. The four assembly connecting blocks can be customized according to the specific shape of the assembly workpiece, so as to better fit the surface of the assembly workpiece.
[0009] Preferably, the adjusting support slide plate is provided with a guide rail;
[0010] Preferably, the lateral pusher body is provided with anti-slip threads;
[0011] Preferably, the cap locking bolt body is provided with a hexagonal screw hole;
[0012] Preferably, the assembly connecting block is provided with an adhesive pad for bonding.
[0013] Beneficial effects
[0014] This utility model provides an adjustable universal assembly fixture. It offers the following advantages compared to existing technologies: This fixture, through its staggered adjustable support structure and the flexible adaptability of its four support frames, allows for precise and independent fine-tuning based on the actual surface condition of the supported object. This precise adjustment method ensures a more stable support state for the supported object among the four support frames, significantly optimizing stability and accuracy during assembly. Compared to traditional assembly fixtures, which often struggle to handle complex and changing conditions when dealing with large assemblies, test benches, and test pipelines, traditional fixtures cannot guarantee ideal assembly accuracy due to unavoidable interference factors in the assembly environment and the accumulation of processing errors within the assembly itself. This fixture, with its unique staggered adjustable support structure, can dynamically adjust to compensate for environmental errors and accumulated assembly errors, fundamentally ensuring assembly requirements, significantly improving assembly quality and efficiency, and providing solid and reliable technical support for various large-scale assembly tasks.

[0023] Those skilled in the art should connect all electrical components and their compatible power supplies in this case via wires. Appropriate controllers and encoders should be selected according to the actual situation to meet control requirements. The specific connection and control sequence should refer to the working principle described below, where the electrical components are connected in sequence. The detailed connection methods are well-known in the art. The following mainly introduces the working principle and process, and will not describe the electrical control further.
[0024] Example
[0025] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, such as... Figure 1-6As shown, an adjustable universal assembly fixture includes: a fixture base 1, several fixture supports 2, several support plates 3, and several adjusting support slides 4. The fixture supports 2 are respectively mounted on the fixture base 1, the support plates 3 are respectively mounted on the fixture supports 2, and the adjusting support slides 4 are respectively mounted on the support plates 3. Several staggered adjustment support structures are installed on each of the adjusting support slides 4. Each staggered adjustment support structure includes: a support frame 5, an upper slider 6, a lower slider 7, an adjusting screw 8, a connecting block 9, and a connecting locking cap 10. The system includes a support push arm 11, a pair of cap locking bolts 12, a pair of upper block slots 13, a pair of limiting guide bolts 14, a pair of side push bolts 15, and a lower block locking ring 16. The upper slider 6 is installed within the support frame 5 and connected to the lower slider 7. The lower slider 7 is installed within the support frame 5. The adjusting screw 8 is inserted into the lower slider 7 and movably inserted into the support frame 5. The connecting mounting block 9 is installed on the upper slider 6 and connected to the connecting locking cap 10. The support push arm 11 is inserted into the connecting mounting block 16. The upper slider 6 is provided with a pair of upper block slots 13. A pair of limiting guide bolts 14 are movably inserted into the pair of upper block slots 13 and are movably inserted into the supporting frame 5. A pair of side pushing bolts 15 are movably inserted into the supporting frame 5 and are movably connected to the upper slider 6. The lower block locking ring 16 is fitted onto the adjusting screw 8 and installed inside the lower slider 7. An auxiliary fitting assembly is installed on the supporting push arm 11. The auxiliary fitting assembly includes: a push coupling plate 17, several patch placement pins 18, an assembly connection patch 19, and an assembly workpiece 20. The push coupling plate 17 is installed on the supporting push arm 11, and several patch placement pins 18 are respectively inserted into the push coupling plate 17 and connected to the assembly connection patch 19. The assembly connection patch 19 is movably connected to the assembly workpiece 20.
[0026] According to the appendix Figure 1-6It is concluded that the tooling base 1, together with multiple tooling brackets 2, fully supports the four support plates 3. The four adjusting support slide plates 4 rely on the four guide slide rails set on them, so that the four support support frames 5 can slide horizontally on the adjusting support slide plates 4, thereby adjusting their relative positions to provide sufficient support for the assembly workpiece 20. Tightening a pair of side push bolts 15 on the support support frame 5 allows the upper slider 6 to slide left and right within the support support frame 5. A pair of upper block slots 13, together with a pair of limit guide bolts 14 inserted therein, ensure that the upper slider 6 is always in the middle position within the support support frame 5, facilitating subsequent fine adjustments and preventing the upper slider 6 from shifting or getting stuck within the support support frame 5, making it more stable when supporting the workpiece. The support push arm 11 is inserted between the connecting mounting block 9 and the connecting locking cap 10, and is locked by a pair of cap locking bolts 12 relying on the hexagonal screw holes set on them. When the adjusting screw 8 on the support frame 5 is turned, the lower locking ring 16 and the lower slider 7 will move within the support frame 5. Because the inclined surfaces of the upper slider 6 and the lower slider 7 are in contact with each other, when the lower slider 7 moves within the support frame 5, the upper slider 6 will rise or fall, thereby raising or lowering the relative height of the support push arm 11. The anti-slip threads on the side push bolt 15 make it easy for workers to grip the side push bolt 15 and prevent slippage. The assembly connecting block 19 is stably installed on the push coupling plate 17 by multiple blocks to place the bolt 18. The bonding auxiliary pads on the assembly connecting block 19 can make the four assembly connecting blocks 19 more firmly bonded to the surface of the assembly workpiece 20. The four assembly connecting blocks 19 can be customized according to the specific shape of the assembly workpiece 20 to better fit the surface of the assembly workpiece 20.
[0027] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
