Detailed Implementation

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0028] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0029] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The present invention provides a CNC milling machine slotting fixture, comprising: a machine body 1, a worktable 2 mounted on the surface of the machine body 1, a workpiece 3 abutting the upper surface of the worktable 2, and an adjustment structure 4 provided on the upper surface of the worktable 2.

[0030] In the embodiments of this utility model, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4The adjustment structure 4 includes two adjustment slots 401, which are formed on the worktable 2. A bidirectional screw 402 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of each adjustment slot 401. A servo motor 403 is fixedly connected to one side of the worktable 2. The output end of the servo motor 403 is fixedly connected to the bidirectional screw 402. Two adjustment plates 404 are threadedly connected to the arc surface of the bidirectional screw 402. The adjustment plates 404 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the adjustment slots 401. A support rod 407 is threadedly inserted into the surface of the adjustment plates 404. A support frame 408 is rotatably connected to the end of the support rod 407 near the workpiece 3. The surface of the support frame 408 is flush with the inner wall of the workpiece 3. The adjusting plate 404 is slidably connected. A mounting rod 410 is slidably connected to one side of the support frame 408. A spring 411 is fitted onto the arc surface of the mounting rod 410. The two ends of the spring 411 are fixedly connected to the mounting rod 410 and the support frame 408, respectively. A mounting block 413 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the support frame 408. The mounting block 413 is slidably connected to the arc surface of the mounting rod 410. A clamping plate 414 is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting block 413 away from the support frame 408. Driven by a servo motor 403, the two clamping plates 414 limit the movement of the workpiece 3. The clamping plates 414 are easily disassembled, offering high adjustment flexibility and facilitating the clamping of workpieces of varying shapes and sizes. For the same workpiece 3, a slide rod 405 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the adjusting groove 401. The arc surface of the slide rod 405 is slidably connected to the adjusting plate 404. The slide rod 405 further limits the adjusting plate 404, making the adjusting plate 404 more stable when moving along the adjusting groove 401. Two pulleys 406 are rotatably connected to the lower surface of the adjusting plate 404. The two pulleys 406 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the adjusting groove 401. The pulleys 406 reduce the friction between the adjusting plate 404 and the inner wall of the adjusting groove 401, making the adjusting plate 404 move more smoothly along the adjusting groove 401. A scale 40 is provided on the upper surface of the support frame 408. 9. Refer to the scale 409 to help the user intuitively judge the moving distance of the support frame 408. The end of the mounting rod 410 near the support frame 408 is arc-shaped, which makes it easy for the mounting rod 410 to slide into the mounting block 413. The end of the mounting rod 410 away from the support frame 408 is fixedly connected to a pull ring 412. Operating the pull ring 412 drives the mounting rod 410 to move, which makes it easy for the user to move the mounting rod 410. The side of the clamping plate 414 away from the mounting block 413 is fixedly connected to a protective plate 415, which reduces the damage of the clamping plate 414 to the workpiece 3.

[0031] The working principle of the CNC milling machine slotting fixture provided by this utility model is as follows: By setting the adjustment structure 4, the support rods 407 on the two adjustment plates 404 are first rotated. The support rods 407 move along the adjustment plates 404 by means of threads. The support rods 407 drive the support frame 408 to move. The support frame 408 then drives the clamping plate 414 to move through the mounting block 413. The distance between the two clamping plates 414 and the adjustment plate 404 is adjusted according to the shape of the workpiece 3 to be processed. If the workpiece 3 is a symmetrical part, the distance between the two clamping plates 414 and the adjustment plate 404 is adjusted to be the same. If the workpiece 3 is an irregularly shaped part, the distance is adjusted according to the shape of the workpiece. Adjust the distance between the center and both sides, and position the corresponding clamping plates 414. Then place the workpiece 3 at a suitable position on the worktable 2. The servo motor 403 drives the bidirectional screw 402 to rotate. The bidirectional screw 402 drives the two adjusting plates 404 to move towards each other simultaneously via the thread. The adjusting plates 404 then drive the clamping plates 414 on the support frame 408 to move, so that the two clamping plates 414 abut against the sides of the workpiece 3, fixing the workpiece 3 at the center position of the worktable 2. When it is necessary to replace the clamping plates 414 according to the shape of the workpiece 3 in the same batch, first move them away from the support frame 408. Pull the mounting rod 410 in the direction of the movement. The mounting rod 410 slides away from the inner wall of the mounting block 413 and the support frame 408. The spring 411 is in a stretched state, releasing the restriction on the mounting block 413. Remove the clamping plate 414 and the mounting block 413 in the direction away from the support frame 408. Then, take a new clamping plate 414 and the mounting block 413 and move them into the support frame 408. Release the mounting rod 410. Under the action of the spring force of the spring 411, the mounting rod 410 moves into the support frame 408 and the mounting block 413, fixing the position of the new clamping plate 414. The adjusting plate 404 is further restricted by the sliding rod 405. The adjusting plate 404 moves more stably along the adjusting groove 401. The pulley 406 reduces the friction between the adjusting plate 404 and the inner wall of the adjusting groove 401, making the adjusting plate 404 move more smoothly along the adjusting groove 401. Referring to the scale 409, the user can intuitively judge the moving distance of the support frame 408. The end of the mounting rod 410 near the support frame 408 is arc-shaped, which makes it easy for the mounting rod 410 to slide into the mounting block 413. The operating pull ring 412 drives the mounting rod 410 to move, which makes it easy for the user to move the mounting rod 410. The protective plate 415 reduces the damage of the clamping plate 414 to the workpiece 3.
