[0022] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0023] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, this utility model has two embodiments, which will now be described separately.
[0024] Example 1:
[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an auxiliary positioning fixture for irregularly shaped workpieces according to this embodiment includes: a base 1 disposed on a CNC indexing turntable 1000; a first positioning surface 101 on the base 1 that matches the shape of the flange 801 of the workpiece 800; a support surface 102 on the base 1 that matches the end face of the workpiece 800; a second positioning surface 103 on the base 1 that matches the inner hole of the workpiece 800; the first positioning surface 101, the support surface 102, and the second positioning surface 103 forming a positioning groove 104 that matches the flange of the workpiece 800; and a locking component 2 on the base 1 for locking the workpiece 800 onto the base 1. This invention achieves positioning of three surfaces of the workpiece by setting a base on a CNC indexing turntable and providing a first positioning surface that matches the shape of the workpiece flange, a support surface that matches the end face of the workpiece, and a second positioning surface that matches the inner hole of the workpiece. This ensures positioning accuracy. A locking component is used to lock the workpiece onto the base. This design has the advantages of simple structure and convenient positioning and locking. Furthermore, after machining the through hole on the end face, the base can be rotated 90 degrees by the CNC indexing turntable to machine the through hole on the side, ensuring the perpendicularity between the axis of the through hole on the end face of the workpiece and the axis of the through hole on the side.
[0026] In this embodiment, the flange 801 of the workpiece 800 is provided with a through hole 802, and the positioning groove 104 is provided with threaded holes 1041 corresponding to the through holes 802. The locking assembly 2 is a locking bolt that passes through the through hole 802 and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 1041. The workpiece can be locked onto the base by the four locking bolts.
[0027] Example 2:
[0028] like Figures 4-9 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that in embodiment 1, the workpiece can be locked onto the base by four locking bolts, which is relatively time-consuming. Therefore, the locking component 2 in this embodiment adopts a different design.
[0029] In this embodiment, the locking assembly 2 includes: a locking seat 21, which has a through hole 201 for the workpiece 800 to pass through. The flange 801 of the workpiece 800 is located between the positioning groove 104 and the locking seat 21. The left and right sides of the locking seat 21 are respectively provided with locking blocks 22 for locking the locking seat 21 onto the base 1. The locking blocks 22 are provided with a latch 220 that cooperates with the side of the locking seat 21 to lock the locking seat 21 onto the base 1. The base 1 is fixedly connected with a limiting block 23 for positioning the locking blocks 22. One side of the limiting block 23 is provided with a notch 230 for the locking blocks 22 to slide within it. The base 1 is also provided with a locking drive mechanism 24 for driving each locking block 22 to move so that the latch 220 on the locking block 22 locks the locking seat 21. When using the locking assembly of this utility model, the workpiece is first passed through the through hole of the locking seat and the flange of the workpiece is placed in the positioning groove on the base. Then, the locking drive mechanism drives each locking block to move, so that the latch on the locking block is locked onto the locking seat. This can quickly lock the locking seat and the workpiece on the base, improving the clamping efficiency.
[0030] In this embodiment, the locking drive mechanism 24 includes: a drive base 241, a drive rod 242, a connecting rod 243, and a handle 244. The drive base 241 is connected to the base 1. The drive rod 242 is slidably connected to the drive base 241. The handle 244 is pivotally connected to the drive base 241. One end of the connecting rod 243 is hinged to the drive rod 242, and the other end of the connecting rod 243 is hinged to the handle 244. By pulling the handle, the drive rod can be pushed out and held in the pushed-out position to maintain the locked state; pulling the handle back can unlock the mechanism, which has the advantage of being easy to use.
[0031] In this embodiment, the locking block 22 is provided with a T-slot 2201, and the front end of the drive rod 242 is provided with a connector 2421 that can be inserted into the T-slot 2201. It has the advantages of simple structure and convenient processing.
[0032] In this embodiment, the connector 2421 is provided with a threaded nut 2422 for locking the connector 2421 in the T-slot 2201. This has the advantage of easy assembly.
[0033] In this embodiment, the two sides of the locking seat 21 are provided with first inclined surfaces 210 at the positions where they contact the bayonet 220, and the bayonet 220 is provided with second inclined surfaces 2202 that cooperate with the first inclined surfaces 210. The cooperation of the first and second inclined surfaces ensures the reliability of the locking seat.
[0034] The above examples are merely illustrative of the technical content of this utility model to facilitate reader understanding, but do not imply that the implementation of this utility model is limited to these embodiments. Any technical extensions or re-creations made based on this utility model are protected by this utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the claims.
