Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of positioning tooling technology, and in particular to a right-angle joint positioning tooling. Background Technology

[0002] Right-angle connectors, also known as right-angle pipe joints, are parts in piping systems that connect two pipes or equipment at a right angle. Existing right-angle connectors are usually formed into blanks by casting, and then the two ends of the blanks are threaded and deburred by machine tools. To facilitate machining, positioning fixtures are usually used for positioning.

[0003] A search revealed that the utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN218313116U discloses a right-angle pipe joint positioning fixture, which has the advantages of simple structure, low cost, convenient disassembly and assembly, good positioning effect for right-angle pipe joints, and strong versatility.

[0004] Although the above-mentioned device can complete the positioning operation of the right-angle pipe joint, after completing the processing operation of one end of the right-angle pipe joint, it is still necessary to release the clamping and positioning of the right-angle pipe joint, and then reposition and refix it. The operation is too cumbersome and affects the processing efficiency of the right-angle pipe joint.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a right-angle joint positioning fixture to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a right-angle joint positioning fixture with a simple structure and convenient production. After processing one end of the right-angle joint, there is no need to disassemble and re-fix the right-angle joint, which reduces the processing difficulty and improves the processing efficiency. This solves the problem mentioned in the background art that after processing one end of the right-angle joint, it is necessary to release the clamping and positioning of the right-angle joint, and then reposition and re-fix it, which is too cumbersome and affects the processing efficiency of the right-angle joint.

[0007] According to one aspect of this disclosure, the following technical solution is provided: a right-angle joint positioning fixture, comprising:

[0008] The installation mechanism is used to install the quick adjustment mechanism and the right-angle connector positioning mechanism;

[0009] A quick-adjustment mechanism includes an adjusting sleeve fixedly disposed inside a circular hole. An adjusting shaft is rotatably disposed inside the adjusting sleeve. A hexagonal socket head cap screw is threaded through the adjusting shaft on its front side. An adjusting groove is formed on the right side of the front side of the adjusting sleeve. The hexagonal socket head cap screw is slidably disposed inside the adjusting groove. Locking grooves are formed on both the front and right sides of the adjusting sleeve. Both locking grooves communicate with the adjusting groove and are located at opposite ends of the adjusting groove.

[0010] A right-angle connector positioning mechanism is used to clamp and position a right-angle connector.

[0011] According to at least one embodiment of the right-angle connector positioning fixture of the present disclosure, the mounting mechanism includes a clamping shaft, an end plate is fixedly disposed at the end of the clamping shaft, an upper mounting plate is fixedly disposed at the top front of the end plate, and a lower mounting plate is fixedly disposed at the bottom front of the end plate.

[0012] According to at least one embodiment of the right-angle connector positioning fixture of the present disclosure, the upper mounting plate has a round hole at the top and the lower mounting plate has a hexagonal hole at the bottom.

[0013] According to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, the right-angle joint positioning fixture includes an upper clamping seat fixedly disposed at the bottom end of the adjusting shaft, and a guide rod is fixedly disposed at the bottom of the upper clamping seat.

[0014] According to at least one embodiment of the right-angle joint positioning fixture of the present disclosure, the right-angle joint positioning mechanism further includes a hexagonal nut fixedly disposed inside the hexagonal hole, an external hexagonal bolt threadedly connected to the inner side of the hexagonal nut, and a lower clamping seat slidably disposed on the outside of the guide rod via a bearing at the top end of the external hexagonal bolt.

[0015] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] This invention features a quick adjustment mechanism. After one end of the right-angle connector is machined, a hex wrench is used to rotate the socket head cap screw, causing its head to retract from the adjacent locking groove. The screw is then moved along the adjustment groove to the other end, where it is tightened, allowing its head to re-enter the adjacent locking groove for a limit position. During this process, the socket head cap screw drives the upper and lower clamping seats to rotate synchronously via the adjustment shaft, thus bringing the other end of the right-angle connector to the machining station. Compared to existing technologies, this invention has a simpler structure, is easier to manufacture, and eliminates the need for disassembly and re-fixing of the right-angle connector after machining one end, reducing machining difficulty and improving efficiency.

[0025] For descriptive purposes, this disclosure may use spatial relative terms such as “below,” “under,” “below,” “down,” “above,” “above,” “higher,” and “side (e.g., as in a “sidewall”)” to describe the relationship between one component and another component as shown in the accompanying drawings. In addition to the orientations depicted in the drawings, the spatial relative terms are also intended to encompass different orientations of the device during use, operation, and / or manufacture. For example, if the device in the drawings is flipped, a component described as “below” or “under” other components or features would subsequently be positioned “above” said other components or features. Thus, the exemplary term “below” can encompass both “above” and “below” orientations. Furthermore, the device may be otherwise positioned (e.g., rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), thus interpreting the spatial relative descriptive terms used herein accordingly.

[0026] Figure 1This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of a right-angle joint positioning fixture according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0027] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the mounting mechanism 1 of a right-angle joint positioning fixture according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0028] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the quick adjustment mechanism 2 and the right-angle joint positioning mechanism 3 of a right-angle joint positioning fixture according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0029] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the right-angle joint positioning fixture disclosed herein may include components such as: an installation mechanism 1, a quick adjustment mechanism 2, and a right-angle joint positioning mechanism 3.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown in this disclosure, the mounting mechanism 1 includes a clamping shaft 11, an end plate 12 is fixedly disposed at the end of the clamping shaft 11, an upper mounting plate 13 is fixedly disposed at the top front of the end plate 12, a lower mounting plate 14 is fixedly disposed at the bottom front of the end plate 12, a round hole 15 is opened at the top of the upper mounting plate 13, and a hexagonal hole 16 is opened at the bottom of the lower mounting plate 14.

[0031] Therefore, after the right-angle connector is clamped and positioned by the right-angle connector positioning mechanism 3, the clamping shaft 11 is clamped and fixed by the three-jaw chuck on the lathe. At this time, one end of the right-angle connector is located at the machining station. Subsequently, the three-jaw chuck drives the installation mechanism 1 to rotate continuously, thereby enabling the installation mechanism 1 to drive the right-angle connector to rotate continuously through the right-angle connector positioning mechanism 3, so as to cooperate with the lathe to complete the thread cutting and deburring operations.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the quick adjustment mechanism 2 includes an adjustment sleeve 21 fixedly disposed inside the circular hole 15. An adjustment shaft 22 is rotatably disposed inside the adjustment sleeve 21. An internal hexagon bolt 23 is threadedly disposed through the front of the adjustment shaft 22. An adjustment groove 24 is provided on the right side of the front of the adjustment sleeve 21. The internal hexagon bolt 23 is slidably disposed inside the adjustment groove 24. Locking grooves 25 are provided on both the front and right sides of the adjustment sleeve 21. Both locking grooves 25 are connected to the adjustment groove 24 and are located at both ends of the adjustment groove 24.

[0033] Therefore, after one end of the right-angle connector is processed, a hex wrench is used to rotate the socket head cap screw 23, causing the head of the socket head cap screw 23 to exit from the inside of the adjacent locking groove 25. Then, the socket head cap screw 23 is moved along the adjusting slide 24 to the other end of the adjusting slide 24, and the socket head cap screw 23 is tightened, so that its head re-enters the inside of the adjacent locking groove 25 to form a limit. During this process, the socket head cap screw 23 drives the upper clamping seat 31 and the lower clamping seat 35 to rotate synchronously through the adjusting shaft 22, thereby allowing the other end of the right-angle connector to reach the processing station. Compared with the existing technology, the structure is simple and the production is convenient. Moreover, after processing one end of the right-angle connector, there is no need to disassemble and re-fix the right-angle connector, which reduces the processing difficulty and improves the processing efficiency.

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown in this disclosure, the right-angle joint positioning mechanism 3 includes an upper clamping seat 31 fixedly disposed at the bottom end of the adjusting shaft 22, and a guide rod 32 fixedly disposed at the bottom of the upper clamping seat 31. The right-angle joint positioning mechanism 3 also includes a hexagonal nut 33 fixedly disposed inside the hexagonal hole 16, and an external hexagonal bolt 34 threadedly connected to the inner side of the hexagonal nut 33. The top end of the external hexagonal bolt 34 is rotatably sleeved with a bearing and is slidably sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 32 in the vertical direction.

[0035] This allows the right-angle connector to be placed into the positioning groove at the top of the lower clamping seat 35. Then, the external hex bolt 34 is rotated. Under the action of the hex nut 33, the external hex bolt 34 drives the lower clamping seat 35 to move continuously upward along the guide rod 32 until it abuts against the bottom of the upper clamping seat 31. At this time, the upper clamping seat 31 cooperates with the lower clamping seat 35 to complete the positioning of the right-angle connector.

[0036] It should also be noted that any content not described in detail in this specification is prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0037] Those skilled in the art should understand that the above embodiments are merely for illustrating the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure. Those skilled in the art can make other changes or modifications based on the above disclosure, and these changes or modifications still fall within the scope of the present disclosure.
