[0025] This utility model provides a tooling for placing riser cutting in a casting cylinder head robot, as shown in Figures 1-4, including a base plate 100, a clamping assembly 200, and a pushing assembly 300;

[0026] Please continue to refer to Figures 1 and 3. The base plate 100 serves as the connecting base. A support plate 110 is connected to the top of the base plate 100. Multiple sets of supports 111 are connected to the top of the support plate 110. Multiple sets of bearing guide piles 120 are connected to the top of the base plate 100. The multiple sets of bearing guide piles 120 are arranged along the outer side of the support plate 110. After the robot releases the workpiece, it is guided by the bearing guide piles 120 around the perimeter and placed onto the support plate 110.

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1-4. Multiple sets of clamping components 200 are provided, and the multiple sets of clamping components 200 are symmetrically connected to the top of the base plate 100. The clamping component 200 includes a clamping cylinder 210 threadedly connected to the top of the base plate 100. The top of the clamping cylinder 210 is connected to a hinge seat 211 through a positioning bolt. The extension end of the clamping cylinder 210 is hinged to a pressure plate 220. The center of the pressure plate 220 is hinged to the top of the hinge seat 211.

[0028] action:

[0029] When the clamping cylinder 210 operates, it drives the pressure plate 220 to deflect along the hinge seat 211, and the pressure plate 220 presses down to assist in clamping and fixing the workpiece.

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1-2. A push-tightening assembly 300 is connected to the top of the base plate 100. The push-tightening assembly 300 includes a side push cylinder 310 that is threaded to the top of the base plate 100. The telescopic end of the side push cylinder 310 is connected to a push rod 320.

[0031] action:

[0032] When the side-push cylinder 310 is working, it drives the push rod 320 to move back and forth. When the workpiece is placed on the support plate 110 by the guide post 120 with bearing, the push rod 320 pushes the workpiece to the correct position on one side.

[0033] Furthermore, rubber pads (not shown in the figure) are glued to the bottom front end of the pressure plate 220 and the end of the push rod 320.

[0034] Working principle: When this utility model is in use, the robot picks up the cylinder head and places it on the riser cutting fixture, suspending it slightly. After the robot releases the workpiece, it is guided by the bearing guide pins 120 around the perimeter and placed on the support plate 110. Then, the side push cylinder 310 drives the push rod 320 to move back and forth, pushing the workpiece to the correct position on one side. At the same time, the clamping cylinder 210 drives the pressure plate 220 to deflect along the hinge seat 211, and the pressure plate 220 presses down to assist in clamping and fixing the workpiece.

[0035] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to embodiments, various modifications can be made and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the embodiments disclosed in this invention can be combined with each other in any way.
