Through communication satellites, people can use mobile phones, televisions, and the internet anytime, anywhere, achieving instant global communication; navigation satellites (such as GPS) provide precise positioning for travel, optimize traffic routes, and improve logistics efficiency; meteorological satellites can provide early warnings of severe weather, ensuring the safety of production and daily life; in addition, remote sensing satellites assist in agricultural monitoring, resource exploration, and urban planning, improving resource utilization efficiency. These technologies have not only changed lifestyles but also promoted socio-economic development, making the world more interconnected, intelligent, and secure.

[0003] Pipe fittings are an important component of aerospace satellites. During the assembly process, pipe fittings need to be adjusted to a specified posture for assembly. In the current production technology, the posture of pipe fittings is generally adjusted manually, which is not only inefficient but also cannot guarantee the uniformity of the posture of pipe fittings. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the technical problems existing in the background art, this utility model proposes a tooling for adjusting the posture of pipe fittings.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows:

[0006] A pipe fitting posture adjustment fixture includes a machine base, a clamping module for clamping the pipe fitting, a first translation module for driving the clamping module to move along the X-axis of the machine base, a second translation module for driving the clamping module to move along the Y-axis of the machine base, and a locking lifting module for locking the end of the pipe fitting.

[0007] The clamping module is mounted on the moving end of the first translation module, the first translation module is connected to the moving ends of the second translation module, and the locking and lifting module includes a locking plate that moves up and down along the Z-axis of the machine tool, and a lifting unit that drives the locking plate to move. The end of the pipe is connected to the locking plate.

[0008] Preferably, the end face of the locking plate is provided with a plurality of locking holes arranged at intervals, and the locking plate is provided with a locking rod for reducing the diameter of the locking holes. Through the above improvements, the end of the conduit is placed into the locking hole, and the diameter of the locking hole is reduced by rotating the locking rod, so as to achieve rapid fixation of the end of the pipe fitting.

[0009] Preferably, the diameter of the locking hole gradually increases along the arrangement direction. Through the above improvements, in order to adapt to pipe fittings of different diameters, the diameter of the locking hole is gradually increased along the arrangement direction, so as to match pipe fittings of different sizes.

[0010] Preferably, the side of the locking plate is also provided with several locking holes. Through the above improvements, different types of pipe fittings not only have different pipe diameters, but also have different postures. Several locking holes are also provided on the side of the locking plate to adapt to pipe fittings with different postures, thereby further improving compatibility.

[0011] Preferably, the locking plate has a locking groove that connects to the locking hole, dividing the locking plate into a first locking area and a second locking area. The locking rod is inserted into the first locking area and the second locking area. The locking rod rotates to bring the first locking area and the second locking area closer together or further apart. With the above improvement, when the end of the pipe is inserted into the locking hole, the locking rod can be rotated. As the locking rod rotates, the first locking area and the second locking area move closer together, thereby reducing the diameter of the locking hole to fix the end of the pipe on the locking plate.

[0012] Preferably, the clamping module includes a fixed base connected to the moving end of the first translation module, a clamping rod inserted into the fixed base, and a movable clamping piece rotated on the clamping rod. The clamping rod and the movable clamping piece form a clamping groove for inserting the pipe fitting. Through the above improvements, the movable clamping piece and the clamping rod cooperate to achieve rapid fixing of the pipe fitting.

[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the clamping rod is provided with a plug-in seat, the bottom of the plug-in seat is formed with a plug-in protrusion, and the fixing seat is formed with a plug-in groove for the plug-in protrusion to be inserted. Through the above improvements, the clamping rod can be quickly installed.

[0014] Preferably, locking and lifting modules are provided on both sides of the machine. Through the above improvements, the locking and lifting modules on both sides of the machine can clamp and fix the two ends of the pipe to match pipes with different postures.

[0015] Preferably, the first translation module includes a first drive motor, a first drive screw connected to the output end of the first drive motor, and a first slider disposed on the first drive screw. The clamping module is disposed on the first slider. The second translation module includes a second drive motor, a second drive screw connected to the output end of the second drive motor, and a second slider disposed on the second drive screw. A connecting plate is disposed at the bottom of the first translation module, and the second slider is connected to the connecting plate. Through the above improvements, the clamping module is disposed on the first slider. The first drive motor drives the first drive screw to rotate, causing the first slider to move the clamping module along the X-axis. A connecting plate is disposed at the bottom of the first translation module, and the second slider is connected to the connecting plate. The second drive motor drives the second drive screw to rotate, causing the second slider to move the entire first translation module along the Y-axis, thereby realizing the movement of the clamping module along both the X and Y axes.

[0016] Preferably, the clamping rod and the movable clamping plate are provided with a Teflon layer. Through the above improvements, damage to the surface of the pipe fitting is avoided during the clamping and fixing process.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0018] By setting a clamping module on the machine tool, the clamping module can clamp the body of the pipe fitting. The machine tool is equipped with a first translation module that drives the clamping module to move along the X-axis of the machine tool, a second translation module that drives the clamping module to move along the Y-axis of the machine tool, and a locking lifting module for locking the end of the pipe fitting. The clamping module is set on the moving end of the first translation module, and the moving ends of the first translation module and the second translation module are connected. The locking lifting module includes a locking plate that moves up and down along the Z-axis of the machine tool, and a lifting unit that drives the locking plate to move. The end of the pipe fitting is connected to the locking plate. The first translation module and the second translation module drive the clamping module to move along the X-axis and Y-axis, and the locking lifting module drives the end of the pipe fitting to move along the Z-axis, thereby adjusting the pipe fitting to a specified posture. Compared with manual adjustment, this method greatly improves efficiency and reduces the labor intensity of employees. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. 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.

[0027] It should be understood that although the terms upper, middle, lower, top, one end, etc., appear in this document to describe various elements, these elements are not limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the elements from each other for ease of understanding, and are not used to define any directional or sequential restrictions.

[0028] like Figure 1-6 As shown, a pipe fitting posture adjustment fixture includes a machine base 1, a clamping module 2 for clamping the pipe fitting 6, a first translation module 3 for driving the clamping module 2 to move along the X-axis of the machine base 1, a second translation module 4 for driving the clamping module 2 to move along the Y-axis of the machine base 1, and a locking lifting module 5 for locking the end of the pipe fitting 6.

[0029] Specifically, the clamping module 2 is set on the moving end of the first translation module 3, the first translation module 3 is connected to the moving end of the second translation module 4, and the locking lifting module 5 includes a locking plate 1.1 that moves up and down along the Z-axis of the machine tool 1, and a lifting unit 1.2 that drives the locking plate 1.1 to move. The end of the pipe 6 is connected to the locking plate 1.1.

[0030] During the posture adjustment process, since the pipe 6 can be bent to adjust its posture angle, the body of the pipe 6 is fixed on the clamping module 2, and the end of the pipe 6 is fixed on the locking plate 1.1. The first translation module 3 and the second translation module 4 are used to drive the clamping module 2 to move along the X and Y axes, and the locking lifting module 5 is used to drive the end of the pipe 6 to move along the Z axis, thereby adjusting the pipe 6 to the specified posture. Compared with manual adjustment, this greatly improves efficiency and reduces the labor intensity of employees.

[0031] Preferably, an attitude detection camera can be installed on machine 1 to ensure the accuracy of attitude adjustment.

[0032] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, to further explain the structure of the clamping module 2, the clamping module 2 includes a fixed base 3.1 connected to the moving end of the first translation module 3, a clamping rod 3.2 inserted on the fixed base 3.1, and a movable clamping piece 3.3 rotated on the clamping rod 3.2. The clamping rod 3.2 and the movable clamping piece 3.3 form a clamping groove 3.4 for inserting the pipe fitting 6. The movable clamping piece 3.3 cooperates with the clamping rod 3.2 to achieve rapid fixation of the pipe fitting 6.

[0033] The movable clamp 3.3 is provided with a snap-fit ​​arm 6.1, the snap-fit ​​arm 6.1 is formed with a snap-fit ​​groove 6.2, and the clamping rod 3.2 is formed with a fixing post 6.3. When the pipe fitting 6 is placed into the clamping groove 3.4, the snap-fit ​​arm 6.1 can be rotated to put the fixing post 6.3 into the snap-fit ​​groove 6.2, so as to quickly fix the pipe fitting 6.

[0034] Preferably, the clamping rod 3.2 and the movable clamping piece 3.3 are provided with a Teflon layer to avoid damage to the surface of the pipe fitting 6 during the clamping and fixing process.

[0035] Preferably, the bottom of the clamping rod 3.2 is provided with a plug-in seat 4.1, the bottom of the plug-in seat 4.1 is formed with a plug-in protrusion 4.2, and the fixing seat 3.1 is formed with a plug-in groove 4.3 for the plug-in protrusion 4.2 to be inserted. By using the plug-in protrusion 4.2 and the plug-in groove 4.3 to cooperate, the clamping rod 3.2 can be quickly installed.

[0036] Furthermore, the insertion protrusion 4.2 is arranged in the shape of a regular polygon, thereby improving the convenience of adjusting the angle of the clamping rod 3.2.

[0037] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a further explanation of the structure of the locking and lifting module 5 is provided: the output end of the lifting unit 1.2 is connected to a synchronous belt assembly, which is connected to the locking plate 1.1. As the synchronous belt assembly moves, it drives the locking plate 1.1 to perform lifting and lowering actions.

[0038] Specifically, the end face of the locking plate 1.1 is provided with a number of locking holes 1.3 arranged at intervals, and the locking plate 1.1 is provided with a locking rod 1.4 for reducing the diameter of the locking holes 1.3. The end of the conduit is placed into the locking hole 1.3, and the diameter of the locking hole 1.3 is reduced by rotating the locking rod 1.4, so as to achieve quick fixation of the end of the pipe fitting 6.

[0039] Furthermore, the locking plate 1.1 has a locking groove 2.1 that connects to the locking hole 1.3, and the locking plate 1.1 is divided into a first locking area 2.2 and a second locking area 2.3. The locking rod 1.4 is inserted into the first locking area 2.2 and the second locking area 2.3. The locking rod 1.4 rotates to make the first locking area 2.2 and the second locking area 2.3 move closer or further apart.

[0040] During the process of fixing the pipe fitting 6, the end of the pipe fitting 6 is inserted into the locking hole 1.3. The locking rod 1.4 can be rotated. As the locking rod 1.4 rotates, the first locking area 2.2 and the second locking area 2.3 move closer to each other, thereby reducing the diameter of the locking hole 1.3, so as to fix the end of the pipe fitting 6 on the locking plate 1.1.

[0041] Preferably, the diameter of the locking hole 1.3 is gradually increased along the arrangement direction to accommodate pipe fittings 6 of different diameters. By gradually increasing the diameter of the locking hole 1.3 along the arrangement direction, it can be matched with pipe fittings 6 of different sizes.

[0042] As a preferred embodiment, the locking plate 1.1 also has several locking holes 1.3 on its side. Different types of pipe fittings 6 not only have different pipe diameters, but also have different postures. The locking plate 1.1 also has several locking holes 1.3 on its side to accommodate pipe fittings 6 with different postures, thereby further improving compatibility.

[0043] Preferably, locking and lifting modules 5 are provided on both sides of the machine base 1. The locking and lifting modules 5 on both sides of the machine base 1 can clamp and fix the two ends of the pipe fitting 6 to match pipe fittings 6 in different postures.

[0044] During the posture adjustment of the pipe fitting 6, the clamping module 2 can cooperate with a single locking lifting module 5 to lock one end of the pipe fitting 6, or the clamping module 2 can cooperate with two locking lifting modules 5 at the same time to lock both ends of the pipe fitting 6, so as to adjust the posture of the pipe fitting 6.

[0045] like Figure 4 As shown, to further explain the structure of the first translation module 3 and the second translation module 4, the first translation module 3 includes a first drive motor 5.1, a first drive screw 5.2 connected to the output end of the first drive motor 5.1, and a first slider 5.3 disposed on the first drive screw 5.2. The clamping module 2 is disposed on the first slider 5.3. The second translation module 4 includes a second drive motor 5.4, a second drive screw 5.5 connected to the output end of the second drive motor 5.4, and a second slider 5.6 disposed on the second drive screw 5.5. A connecting plate 5.7 is provided at the bottom of the first translation module 3, and the second slider 5.6 is connected to the connecting plate 5.7.

[0046] By setting the clamping module 2 on the first slider 5.3, the first drive motor 5.1 drives the first drive screw 5.2 to rotate, causing the first slider 5.3 to move the clamping module 2 along the X-axis. A connecting plate 5.7 is set at the bottom of the first translation module 3, and the second slider 5.6 is connected to the connecting plate 5.7. The second drive motor 5.4 drives the second drive screw 5.5 to rotate, causing the second slider 5.6 to move the entire first translation module 3 along the Y-axis, thus realizing the movement of the clamping module 2 along both the X and Y axes.

[0047] Preferably, both the connecting plate 5.7 and the machine base 1 are provided with slider modules 5.8, and the first slider 5.3 and the connecting plate 5.7 are slidably disposed on the slider assembly to improve the smoothness of the movement process.

[0048] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive step, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present utility model, they are protected by patent law.
