Transfer components for transferring the processed products on the rotary processing station 5 to the conveyor belt 4 are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt 4 and at the two edges of the top surface of the fixture platform plate 1. A buffer component is also provided at the bottom of the fixture platform plate 1.
[0027] In this embodiment, a grooved flow channel 3 is provided at the middle position of the top surface of the fixture platform plate 1, and the conveyor belt 4 is disposed in the grooved flow channel 3.
[0028] In this embodiment, each rotary machining station 5 has a longitudinally provided mounting groove below it and located in the fixture platform plate 1. The rotating components include a rotary motor 13 fixedly installed in each mounting groove, and the top output shaft of the rotary motor 13 is connected to the adjacent rotary machining station 5.
[0029] In this embodiment, both sides of the outer wall of the fixture platform plate 1 have maintenance windows. The outer wall of each maintenance window is bolted with a detachable maintenance side plate 8. The maintenance window extends into the mounting groove for maintenance of the rotary motor 13.
[0030] In this embodiment, each transfer component includes a fixed upright plate 11 welded to one side of the conveyor belt 4 and located on the top surface of the fixture platform plate 1, an electric push-pull rod 7 fixed to the inner wall of the fixed upright plate 11, and a product push plate 6 welded to the push-pull end of the electric push-pull rod 7.
[0031] In this embodiment, each product push plate 6 has arc-shaped edge guards 12 fixed at both ends to surround the product and pull it back onto the conveyor belt 4 to prevent the product from deviating.
[0032] In this embodiment, the buffer assembly includes a detachable base plate 9 embedded in the bottom surface of the fixture platform plate 1 and four air buffer springs 10 arranged in a rectangular pattern on the top surface of the detachable base plate 9.

[0033] Working principle:
[0034] In this multi-station automated fixture platform, products to be processed are placed on rotary machining stations 5. These stations are located on the top surface of the fixture platform plate 1 and can be oriented by a rotary motor 13 to adapt to the needs of different processing steps. The products on the rotary machining station 5 are processed according to the processing requirements. Each rotary machining station 5 can operate independently, allowing multiple products to be processed simultaneously at different stations.
[0035] Once a product at a rotary processing station 5 has completed processing, it is ready to be moved onto the conveyor belt 4 to proceed to the next processing stage or leave the processing platform. At this time, the electric push-pull rod 7 starts working, driving the product push plate 6 welded to its push-pull end towards the rotary processing station 5. The arc-shaped edge guards 12 fixed at both ends of the product push plate 6 surround the product to prevent it from shifting during the movement. The electric push-pull rod 7 pushes the product from the rotary processing station 5 onto the conveyor belt 4.
[0036] The conveyor belt 4, located in the grooved flow channel 3, is responsible for continuing to transport the moved products forward to the next processing position or directly outputting them to the processing platform. The design of the conveyor belt 4 ensures that the products can smoothly transition between different workstations. The bottom of the entire fixture platform plate 1 is equipped with a buffer assembly, including an embedded removable base plate 9 and four air buffer springs 10. These components work together to provide buffering and shock absorption for the fixture platform, ensuring the stability of equipment operation and reducing the impact of vibration on processing accuracy.
