[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0018] Example:

[0019] refer to Figures 1-3The multi-length automotive pipe alignment and clamping mechanism shown includes a base 1, a translation mechanism 2 fixedly connected to the base 1, a longitudinal alignment and clamping assembly 3 fixedly connected to the moving platform of the translation mechanism 2, and a transverse alignment and clamping assembly 4 fixedly connected to the side wall of the base 1. The longitudinal alignment and clamping assembly 3 includes an adjusting slide 301, a first positioning seat 302, and a first flip clamping device 303. The transverse alignment and clamping assembly 4 includes a detachable positioning assembly, a second positioning seat 401, and a second flip clamping device 402. The detachable positioning assembly includes a mounting seat 501 and a positioning block 502. The first positioning seat 302 and the second positioning seat 401 have positioning grooves. The structure of the second flip clamping device 402 is the same as that of the first flip clamping device 303.

[0020] The translation mechanism 2 is specifically a linear module. The motor of the linear module drives the lead screw to rotate, thereby adjusting the translation and sliding of the linear module's moving platform to adjust the distance between the first positioning seat 302 and the second positioning seat 401. The first positioning seat 302 is used to position and place automotive pipe parts, and the support pulley 301 can provide positioning support for clamping the automotive pipe parts and reduce friction between the first positioning seat 302 and the base 1 when adjusting the position of the first positioning seat 302.

[0021] The second positioning seat 401 is used to position and place automotive pipe parts. The mounting seat 501 is fixedly connected to the positioning protrusion 5011. The slots on the positioning protrusion 5011 and the positioning block 502 can be matched and positioned. The positioning block 502 and the positioning protrusion 5011 can be detachably connected by a screw.

[0022] The first flipping clamping device 303 includes a clamping cylinder, a hinge seat, and a pressure plate. By extending and retracting the piston rod of the clamping cylinder, the pressure plate can flip around the hinge seat to achieve automatic alignment and clamping of automotive pipe parts.

[0023] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When in use, the translation mechanism 2 drives the adjusting slide 301 to slide and adjust the distance between the first positioning seat 302 and the second positioning seat 401, thereby adapting to the positioning and placement of automotive pipes of different lengths. When positioning and placing the automotive pipe, the piston rods of the clamping cylinders of the first flip clamping device 303 and the second flip clamping device 402 are in the retracted state, and the automotive pipe is placed along the positioning grooves of the first positioning seat 302 and the second positioning seat 401. Then, the piston rod of the second flip clamping device 402 extends, and the pressure plate flips towards the second positioning seat 401 to align and clamp the automotive pipe laterally. Then, the piston rod of the first flip clamping device 303 extends, and the pressure plate flips downward to press the automotive pipe onto the first positioning seat 302 and the second positioning seat 401 to achieve longitudinal alignment and clamping. This completes the positioning, alignment and clamping action of the automotive pipe.

[0024] The above embodiments are used to further illustrate the present invention, but do not limit the present invention to these specific embodiments. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be understood as being within the protection scope of the present invention.
