Detailed Implementation

[0028] The present invention will now be described in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0029] Example 1, as Figures 1 to 3As shown, an automatic rotary CNC shared tooling fixture includes a CNC worktable 1, a CNC indexing head 2, a tailstock 3, and a clamping assembly 4. The CNC indexing head 2 and the tailstock 3 are respectively mounted on the CNC worktable 1, and the CNC indexing head 2 and the tailstock 3 are arranged facing each other and spaced apart. The clamping assembly 4 is located between the CNC indexing head 2 and the tailstock 3.

[0030] Among them, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the clamping assembly 4 includes a common tooling base 41. One end of the common tooling base 41 is connected to the turntable 21 of the CNC indexing head 2, and the other end of the common tooling base 41 is rotatably mounted on the tailstock 3.

[0031] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the clamping assembly 4 also includes a replaceable mold core 42 and a cylinder tie rod mechanism 43. The replaceable mold core 42 is screwed onto the upper surface of the common tooling base 41 by locking screws (not shown in the figure). The replaceable mold core 42 is equipped with at least two spaced-apart part positioning posts 44 that protrude from the upper surface of the replaceable mold core 42.

[0032] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the cylinder lever mechanism 43 includes a 90-degree angle cylinder 431 screwed and fastened to the lower surface of the common tooling base 41, and a movable lever 432 connected to the drive end of the 90-degree angle cylinder 431. The upper end of the movable lever 432 is provided with a T-shaped lever head 4321.

[0033] In addition, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the common tooling base 41 has a vertical through hole 411 corresponding to the movable pull rod 432, and the replaceable mold core 42 has a vertical through hole 421 corresponding to the movable pull rod 432. The movable pull rod 432 passes through the base through hole 411 and the mold core through hole 421 from bottom to top, and the T-shaped pull rod head 4321 of the movable pull rod 432 extends to the upper end of the replaceable mold core 42.

[0034] It should be noted that the automatic rotary CNC shared tooling fixture of this embodiment is for the workpiece 7 with an elongated hole structure. During the clamping process of the workpiece 7 with the elongated hole structure using the clamping assembly 4 of this embodiment, the workpiece 7 is placed on the upper surface of the replaceable mold core 42. The replaceable mold core 42 positions the workpiece 7 using several part positioning pins 44, and the part positioning pins 44 are inserted into the structural hole of the workpiece 7. During this process, the elongated hole structure of the workpiece 7 is aligned with the T-shaped pull rod head 4321 of the movable pull rod 432, and the movable pull rod... The T-shaped pull rod head 4321 of the pull rod 432 passes through the elongated hole of the workpiece 7 to be processed. After the workpiece 7 to be processed is positioned in the replaceable mold core 42, the 90-degree rotation cylinder 431 is activated. During this process, the 90-degree rotation cylinder 431 first drives the movable pull rod 432 to rotate 90 degrees so that the T-shaped pull rod head 4321 of the movable pull rod 432 is misaligned with the elongated hole of the workpiece 7 to be processed. Then, the 90-degree rotation cylinder 431 pulls the movable pull rod 432 downward so that the T-shaped pull rod head 4321 of the movable pull rod 432 presses the workpiece 7 downward to achieve the clamping and fixing of the workpiece 7 to be processed.

[0035] After the part is processed, the 90-degree angle cylinder 431 first drives the movable pull rod 432 to move upward, and causes the T-shaped pull rod head 4321 to retract from the part. Then, the 90-degree angle cylinder 431 drives the movable pull rod 432 to rotate 90 degrees, so that the T-shaped pull rod head 4321 of the movable pull rod 432 is aligned with the long hole of the part. Finally, the part can be removed from the replaceable mold core 42.

[0036] It should be emphasized that the replaceable mold core 42 in this embodiment is screwed onto the upper surface of the common tooling base 41 by locking screws. For different parts 7 to be processed, the operator only needs to replace the replaceable mold core 42 that is compatible with it, without having to replace other structural parts. This can significantly reduce the design and development cost of CNC tooling processing.

[0037] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the common tooling base 41 is rotatably mounted on the CNC indexing head 2 and the tailstock 3. During the CNC machining of the workpiece 7, the CNC indexing head 2 can drive the clamping assembly 4 and the workpiece 7 to rotate 360 ​​degrees, thus meeting the requirements for multi-directional CNC machining of the workpiece 7.

[0038] In summary, the automatic rotary CNC common tooling fixture of this embodiment has the advantages of novel structural design, convenient use, and strong versatility, and can effectively reduce the design and development cost of CNC tooling fixtures.

[0039] Example 2, as Figure 1As shown, the difference between this embodiment 2 and embodiment 1 is that: the upper surface of the common tooling base 41 is provided with at least two spaced mold core positioning posts (not shown in the figure), and the replaceable mold core 42 is provided with mold core positioning holes 422 corresponding to each mold core positioning post, and each mold core positioning post is inserted into the corresponding mold core positioning hole 422.

[0040] When the replaceable mold core 42 is installed on the upper surface of the common tooling base 41, this embodiment 2 uses a mold core positioning post to position the replaceable mold core 42, thereby improving the convenience and accuracy of the installation of the replaceable mold core 42.

[0041] Example 3, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the difference between this embodiment three and embodiment one is that the common tooling base 41 is equipped with at least two cylinder rod mechanisms 43 arranged sequentially from left to right.

[0042] For a workpiece 7 with multiple elongated hole structures, this embodiment 3 can use multiple cylinder tie rod mechanisms 43 to clamp multiple positions of the workpiece 7, or select one cylinder tie rod mechanism 43 to clamp according to the position of the elongated hole structure of the workpiece 7.

[0043] Example 4, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the difference between this embodiment four and embodiment one is that: the tailstock 3 has a mounting through hole 31 that runs completely through the left and right directions on the common tooling base 41, and the end of the common tooling base 41 facing the tailstock 3 is installed in the mounting through hole 31 of the tailstock 3 through a planar thrust bearing 5.

[0044] The tailstock 3 has a mounting through hole 31 in which a bearing top block 6 is embedded. The bearing top block 6 is screwed onto the tailstock 3 by an adjusting screw (not shown in the figure), and the bearing top block 6 pushes the planar thrust bearing 5 towards the common tooling base 41.

[0045] It should be noted that when using the automatic rotary CNC shared tooling fixture in this embodiment four, the operator can tighten the adjusting screw to make the bearing top block 6 abut against the planar thrust bearing 5 on the side of the CNC indexing head 2, so as to avoid the common tooling base 41 from axial movement during CNC machining, thereby improving the accuracy of CNC machining.

[0046] Example 5, as Figure 4 As shown, the difference between this fifth embodiment and the first embodiment is that the lower end of the movable pull rod 432 is screwed to the drive end of the 90-degree rotating cylinder 431.

[0047] In this embodiment, the movable pull rod 432 is detachably connected to the drive end of the 90-degree rotating cylinder 431. This structural design can meet the usage requirements of adapting the movable pull rod 432 to different parts 7 to be processed.

[0048] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation method and application scope based on the idea of ​​this utility model. The content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
