[0025] Reference Figures 1-6 During the heating and forming process of the vacuum forming machine, both the product and the vacuum forming film need to be positioned. If displacement occurs during operation, it will affect the overall vacuum forming effect. The first hydraulic rod 203, the connecting strip 202, and the operating table 3 are connected by bolts. The connecting strip 202 and the pressure ring 201 are connected by bolts. The lower pressure block 4 and the insertion groove 204 are connected by insertion. The pressure ring 201 and the lower pressure block 4 form a clamping structure between the upper and lower ends of the vacuum forming film. The machine box 1, the lower pressure block 4, and the second hydraulic rod 401 are connected by bolts. In use, the vacuum forming film can be placed between the pressure ring 201 and the lower pressure block 4. Then, the second hydraulic rod 401 drives the lower pressure block 4 to press down and initially press the edge of the vacuum forming film. Then, the first hydraulic rod 203 drives the pressure ring 201 to rise, forming a secondary pressing. The pressure ring 201 is partially pressed into the lower end of the lower pressure block 4, making the edge of the vacuum forming film more stable. This ensures the positioning of the edge of the vacuum forming film and effectively improves the stability of the edge of the vacuum forming film during vacuum forming.

[0026] Reference Figures 1-6The third hydraulic rod 501 is bolted to the housing 1 and the base plate 502. The fourth hydraulic rod 503 is bolted to the top plate 506 and the base plate 502. The limiting post 504 and the limiting groove 505 are connected by a sleeve. The limiting post 504 and the product are connected by a plug-in connection. In use, the limiting post 504 on which the product is installed is raised, and the lower part of the product is sleeved on the limiting post 504. The limiting post 504 that is not in use can be stored in the limiting groove 505. After the vacuum forming is completed, the limiting post 504 under the product can be raised by the third hydraulic rod 501, thereby lifting the product for easy positioning and picking.

[0027] Working principle: The third hydraulic rod 501 of the product positioning device for thermoforming in the vacuum forming machine is bolted to the machine housing 1 and the base plate 502. The fourth hydraulic rod 503 is bolted to the top plate 506 and the base plate 502. The limiting post 504 and the limiting groove 505 are connected by a sleeve. The limiting post 504 and the product are connected by a plug-in connection. In use, the limiting post 504 on which the product is installed is raised, and the lower part of the product is sleeved on the limiting post 504. The limiting post 504 that is not in use can be stored in the limiting groove 505. After the vacuum forming is completed, the limiting post 504 under the product can be raised by the third hydraulic rod 501, thereby lifting the product for easy positioning and retrieval. The first hydraulic rod 203 is connected to the connecting strip 202 and the operating table 3. The connecting strip 202 and the pressure ring 201 are connected by bolts, and the lower pressure block 4 and the insertion slot 204 are connected by insertion. The pressure ring 201 and the lower pressure block 4 form a clamping structure between the upper and lower ends of the blister film. The machine box 1, the lower pressure block 4, and the second hydraulic rod 401 are connected by bolts. In use, the blister film can be placed between the pressure ring 201 and the lower pressure block 4. Then, the lower pressure block 4 is pressed down by the second hydraulic rod 401 to initially press the edge of the blister film. Then, the first hydraulic rod 203 drives the pressure ring 201 to rise, forming a secondary pressing. The pressure ring 201 is partially pressed into the lower end of the lower pressure block 4, making the pressing of the edge of the blister film more stable. While ensuring the positioning of the edge of the blister film, it can effectively improve the stability of the edge of the blister film during blistering.
