[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a linkage positioning fixture, comprising a base plate and a lifting platform disposed on the top of the base plate, wherein a height adjustment component is disposed in the clamping cavity between the base plate and the lifting platform, vertical plates are fixed to both sides of the top wall of the lifting platform, a clamping platform is disposed on the top of the lifting platform, and rotating shafts are fixed to both sides of the clamping platform, the rotating shafts being rotatably connected to the adjacent vertical plates, a clamping component is disposed on the platform body of the clamping platform, and an tilt adjustment component is disposed on the top of the base plate for driving the clamping platform to achieve tilt angle adjustment.
[0007] Preferably, the height adjustment assembly includes an electric push rod fixedly installed on the top wall of the middle part of the base plate. The piston end of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the lifting platform. Hollow columns are fixedly installed at the four corners of the top wall of the base plate.

[0009] Preferably, the top wall of the clamping platform has a through hole, and both ends of the bidirectional lead screw are screwed with movable seats. The other end of the movable seat is slidably connected to the surface of the guide rod. A connecting column that movably passes through the through hole cavity is fixedly installed on the top wall of the middle part of the movable seat. A clamping plate is fixedly installed at the top end of the connecting column. A rotating rod is installed through the plate of the clamping plate via a bearing.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] 1. This utility model welds rotating shafts to both the front and rear side walls of the clamping platform used for positioning and fixing the connecting rod, and connects the rotating shafts to the vertical plate via bearings. This allows the clamping platform to be tilted. When it is necessary to adjust the tilt angle of the fixed connecting rod, the third motor can be started to drive the one-way lead screw to rotate. Under the limiting and guiding action of the adjusting plate, the moving block can descend along the one-way lead screw. Since the adjusting plate and the fixed block are connected by a pin, the adjusting plate and the fixed block can rotate relative to each other. Thus, when the adjusting plate descends, it can drive the clamping platform to tilt, so that the connecting rod is in a tilted position, thereby meeting the processing or installation requirements in actual situations.
[0014] 2. This utility model places the connecting rod between two arc-shaped clamping blocks, starts the first motor to drive the bidirectional lead screw to rotate, and under the action of the guide rod, the two moving seats move closer to each other, and under the action of the connecting column, the two clamping plates move closer to each other, so that the two arc-shaped clamping blocks can clamp and fix the connecting rod. When it is necessary to flip the connecting rod, the second motor can be started to drive the left rotating rod to rotate, thereby driving the connecting rod to flip and adjust. When it is necessary to adjust the height of the connecting rod, the electric push rod can be started to drive the lifting platform to move up and down. Under the guidance of the hollow column and piston column, the lifting platform can be raised and lowered smoothly, thereby adjusting the height of the connecting rod. Attached Figure Description

[0021] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a connecting rod positioning fixture, including a base plate 1 and a lifting platform 2 disposed on the top of the base plate 1. A height adjustment component is disposed in the clamping cavity between the base plate 1 and the lifting platform 2. Two vertical plates 6 are respectively welded to the front and rear top walls of the lifting platform 2. A clamping platform 7 is disposed on the top of the lifting platform 2. Two rotating shafts 8 are respectively welded to the front and rear side walls of the clamping platform 7. The rotating shafts 8 are rotatably connected to the adjacent vertical plates 6 via bearings. The clamping component is disposed on the platform body of the clamping platform 7 for clamping and fixing the connecting rod. The tilt adjustment component is disposed on the top of the base plate 1 for driving the clamping platform 7 to achieve tilt angle adjustment.
[0022] The height adjustment assembly includes an electric push rod 5 fixed to the top wall of the middle part of the base plate 1 by screws. The piston end of the electric push rod 5 is welded to the bottom wall of the lifting platform 2. Hollow columns 3 are welded at the four corners of the top wall of the base plate 1. Piston columns 4 are slidably connected in the column body of the hollow columns 3, that is, the piston columns 4 can move up and down along the hollow columns 3. The top part of the piston columns 4 is welded to the bottom wall of the lifting platform 2. The clamping assembly includes a bidirectional lead screw 16 and a guide rod 17 respectively disposed in the inner cavities on both sides of the clamping platform 7. The left and right ends of the bidirectional lead screw 16 are rotatably connected between the left and right side walls of the clamping platform 7 via bearings. The left and right ends of the guide rod 17 are respectively welded between the left and right side walls of the clamping platform 7. The first motor 10 is connected to the double A through hole 9 is formed on the top wall of the clamping platform 7 at the right end of the lead screw 16. Movable seats 18 are screwed onto the surfaces of both ends of the lead screw 16. The front end of the movable seat 18 is slidably connected to the surface of the guide rod 17. A connecting post 11 that moves through the cavity of the through hole 9 is welded to the top wall of the middle part of the movable seat 18. The clamping plate 12 is welded to the top end of the connecting post 11. The rotating rod 14 is mounted on the plate of the clamping plate 12 through a bearing. An arc-shaped clamping block 13 is welded to the inner end of the rotating rod 14. The end near the center of the clamping cavity of the two arc-shaped clamping blocks 13 is the inner end. The second motor 15 is fixed to the side wall of the clamping plate 12 on the left side by screws. The output end of the second motor 15 is connected to the end of the rotating rod 14 on the left side. The tilt adjustment assembly includes an adjustment box 19 welded to the bottom left wall of the lifting platform 2. A one-way lead screw 24 is rotatably mounted between the upper and lower side walls of the inner cavity of the adjustment box 19 via bearings. A third motor 20 is fixed to the bottom wall of the adjustment box 19. The output end of the third motor 20 is connected to the bottom end of the one-way lead screw 24. A moving block 25 is screwed onto the surface of the one-way lead screw 24. Adjustment plates 21 are welded to the top walls of both sides of the moving block 25. The plate body of the adjustment plate 21 moves through the top wall of the adjustment box 19 and the bottom wall of the lifting platform 2, so that the adjustment plate 21 can be raised and lowered. Two symmetrically distributed fixing blocks 22 are welded to the bottom left wall of the clamping platform 7. The fixing blocks 22 are rotatably connected to the top plate of the adjacent adjustment plate 21 via bearings via pins 23.
[0023] In use, the connecting rod is placed between two arc-shaped clamping blocks 13, and the first motor 10 is started to drive the bidirectional lead screw 16 to rotate. Under the action of the guide rod 17, the two moving seats 18 are brought closer to each other, and under the action of the connecting column 11, the two clamping plates 12 are brought closer to each other. Thus, the two arc-shaped clamping blocks 13 can clamp and fix the connecting rod. When it is necessary to flip the connecting rod, the second motor 15 can be started to drive the left rotating rod 14 to rotate, thereby driving the connecting rod to flip and adjust. When it is necessary to adjust the height of the connecting rod, the electric push rod 5 can be started to drive the lifting platform 2 to move up and down. Under the guidance of the hollow column 3 and the piston column 4, the lifting platform 2 can be raised and lowered smoothly, thereby adjusting the height of the connecting rod. By welding rotating shafts 8 to both the front and rear side walls of the clamping table 7 used for positioning and fixing the connecting rod, and connecting the rotating shafts 8 to the vertical plate 6 via bearings, the clamping table 7 can be tilted. When it is necessary to adjust the tilt angle of the fixed connecting rod, the third motor 20 can be started to drive the one-way lead screw 24 to rotate. Under the limiting and guiding action of the adjusting plate 21, the moving block 25 can descend along the one-way lead screw 24. Since the adjusting plate 21 and the fixed block 22 are connected by the pin 23, the adjusting plate 21 and the fixed block 22 can rotate relative to each other. Thus, when the adjusting plate 21 descends, it can drive the clamping table 7 to tilt, so that the connecting rod is in a tilted position, thereby meeting the processing or installation requirements under actual conditions.
