[0035] 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.

[0036] In the embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A guide rail tapping device with rapid positioning function includes a base 1, a guide rail 2 fixed at the upper end of the base 1, a conveyor plate 5 on the upper side of the guide rail 2, the guide rail to be tapped is transported by the conveyor plate 5, a limit groove is opened on the upper side of the conveyor plate 5 for placing the guide rail, and locators are respectively set on both sides of the conveyor plate 5 to clamp the guide rail and quickly position the guide rail, keeping the guide rail stable during tapping.

[0037] A slider 51 is fixed at the lower end of the conveyor plate 5. The conveyor plate 5 is slidably connected to the guide rail 2 through the slider 51. A lead screw 21 is threaded inside the slider 51. The lead screw 21 is rotatably connected inside the guide rail 2. A forward and reverse motor is provided at one end of the guide rail 2. The output shaft of the forward and reverse motor is connected to the lead screw 21. The specific connection method can adopt the existing technology. After the forward and reverse motor is started, the lead screw 21 can be driven to rotate, thereby driving the conveyor plate 5 to move horizontally and driving the guide rail frame placed on the conveyor plate 5 to guide and convey.

[0038] Specifically, limit frames 6 are fixed at both ends of the guide rail 2. The positioner is slidably connected inside the limit frame 6. The positioner includes a slide plate 7 and a clamping plate 71. The slide plate 7 is slidably connected inside the limit frame 6. The clamping plate 71 is fixed at the end of the slide plate 7 near the conveyor plate 5. The sliding translation of the slide plate 7 can drive the clamping plate 71 to move so that the clamping plates 71 on both sides can clamp the guide rail frame placed on the conveyor plate 5. A movable plate 72 is fixed at the lower end of the slide plate 7. The movable plate 72 is connected to the guide rail 2 through pneumatic telescopic rods 73. A total of four pneumatic telescopic rods 73 are set. Every two pneumatic telescopic rods 73 are respectively set at both ends of the guide rail 2. The output end of the pneumatic telescopic rod 73 is fixed to the movable plate 72. When the pneumatic telescopic rod 73 is activated, the entire positioner can be moved through the movable plate 72 to drive the positioner.

[0039] More specifically, support plates 52 are fixed at both ends of the conveyor plate 5. The support plates 52 are slidably connected to the inside of the slide plate 7. The support plates 52 support and limit the translation of the conveyor plate 5. At the same time, the sliding connection between the support plates 52 and the slide plate 7 ensures that the movement of the slide plate 7 and the movement of the support plates 52 do not interfere with each other.

[0040] When using this guide rail tapping equipment, first place the guide rail to be processed in the limiting groove of the conveyor plate 5. After starting the forward and reverse motor, the rotation of the lead screw 21 drives the conveyor plate 5 to transport the guide rail. After the conveyor plate 5 transports the guide rail to the position where tapping can be performed, the four pneumatic telescopic rods 73 retract simultaneously, thereby causing the movable plate 72 to drive the positioner to move towards the side closer to the conveyor plate 5, so that the clamping plate 71 can clamp and position the guide rail, keeping the guide rail stable during tapping.

[0041] In another embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 Robotic arms 3 are respectively installed on both sides of the upper surface of the base 1. A tapping machine 4 is installed at the output end of the robotic arm 3. The tapping machine 4 is located on both sides of the guide rail 2. A drill bit 8 is installed on the lower side of the tapping machine 4. The drill bit 8 is driven by the tapping machine 4 to tap the guide rail frame placed on the conveyor plate 5. The robotic arms 3 and tapping machine 4 involved can be existing ones.

[0042] A drive head 41 is fixed at the output end of the tapping machine 4. Starting the tapping machine 4 can drive the drive head 41 to rotate the drill bit 8 and perform tapping on the guide rail frame.

[0043] The drill bit 8 has a mating plate 81 fixed to its upper end, and a mating strip 82 fixed to its upper end. A cross-shaped groove adapted to the mating strip 82 is provided inside the drive head 41, allowing the drill bit 8 to be inserted into the cross-shaped groove of the drive head 41 via the mating strip 82. Four mating holes 811 are provided inside the mating plate 81, each with an internal thread. A threaded groove corresponding to each mating hole 811 is provided on the lower side of the drive head 41. After the drill bit 8 is inserted into the cross-shaped groove of the drive head 41 via the mating strip 82, bolts are used to connect the mating holes 811 and the threaded groove of the drive head 41, enabling quick assembly and disassembly of the drill bit 8 from the drive head 41 and easy replacement of the drill bit 8 from the tapping machine 4. This structure allows for the creation of multiple drill bit configurations to meet different usage requirements, facilitating quick replacement of the drill bit 8 when needed.
